You Are Everything To MeThis is my one true moment of weakness,You Are Everything To Me7 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
I'm completely vulnerable,
My heart is exposed,
I've been trying to tell you how I've felt,
But the words just would never leave my mouth,
You make the darkness I live in brighter,
Your smile lights my way,
Your laugh shows the path,
your voice guides me through,
When I'm with you,
This hopeless life I lead is given meaning,
I'm risking my feelings,
My heart,
My everything,
Because you make me feel like this life is worth living,
There's no one else like you,
No one even compares to you,
Who you are.
Is the person I love,
No matter the changes,
Nor the time,
I've always wanted you to know that,
But the

My heart is so fragile now,
One more break and I'm done,
The emptiness will swallow me,
I will cease to be,
Just a hollow shell of who I once was,
I need for this so badly to work,
I need you,
I need everything that you bring into my life,
Make this pain recede,
Please just set me free,
Just love me.

ConnectionAs I fall asleep,Connection9 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
I dream of you,
The way your smile makes my heart soar,
The way your words make my mind's trouble sleep,
The way your soul collides with mine,
As we form a connection,
That stretches across time.

Laying in silence,
The regret on these sheets is self evident,
But not from me,
You fall asleep and I just lay there,
My thoughts race back through my memories,
I realize I've never been this happy,
What's swirling around your dreams is a mystery,
I may not see this again,
It will forever remain in my memory,
Your sleeping face is calming,
You're even smiling,
But even behind that is chaos.

I Need YouI hear your voice in the distance,I Need You6 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
But it's too far away,
All I can see is darkness,
All I can feel is numb,
Just the intake of breath is difficult,
And with each step I get nowhere,
I’m lost within the darkness of my soul,
Where are you when I need you most,
I hear you,
But with each word you’re farther away,
Don’t leave me here,
I can’t do this on my own,
I’m fading away slowly,
Please save me,
Soon everything I am will be gone.

Will you fix me,
I come to you out of love,
My heart pierced by thorns,
Will you fix me,
I come to you now,
A shadow of who I was,
My heart ripped in two,
Asking you,
Can you fix me,
Oh can you fix me,
Can you show me,
What it means to love again.

I Never Should Have.I've loved you for so long,I Never Should Have.10 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
I've held all these feelings in,
My fear of losing you always stopped me,
I never planned on telling you,
Even though I wanted you to know,
You've always been in the background of my heart,
Even when there was someone else,
When you finally knew how I felt,
You kissed me,
For the first time in my life I was truly happy,
You said you had feelings for me,
But then she came back,
And now I'm lost,
What do I do now,
That you love someone else?

CrowBlack feathers,Crow10 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
As dark as night,
Swirl around the darkness,
He sits alone,
Staring into the sky,
Such lonely eyes,
His guitar at his side,
Searching,
Everything is silent,
Only his shallow breathing can be heard,
Nothing moves in the vast emptiness of the night,
The moon breaks his trance,
And then,
He flies,
His wings unfurl and spread wide,
Each feather shimmers in the moonlight,
For every feather a new star forms,
I stare in awe at the beautiful beast before me,
He who has captured my heart.

My NightmareStanding alone in the crowd,My Nightmare10 months ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
Darkness approaches around,
The silence is deafening,
Scream at the sound,
My nightmare,
My nightmare,
My nightmare,
Life is death just wake me up,
From this nightmare,
Just wake me up,
All these things sufficate me,
Honestly I'm not even breathing,
Help me please,
Just wake me up,
Shatter glass nowhere to turn,
Alone,
The silence is haunting,
Try to scream try to run,
Cry as I wait,
Life is death just wake me up,
Time stands still,
Darkness is here,
How long to wait,
How long to wait,
Death is near,
Wake me up,
Just wake me up,
From this nightmare......

Shutting off the air,
My lungs scream in fear,
My fingers grope for air,
As my vision fades,
I see you reaching for me,
I try to reach out,
But the life leaves my body....

No Place Like HomeNo Place Like Home2 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
"There's no place like home"
I wonder if that's true
Because every day, children move away
For so many reasons
You think home is a safe place
But there's always someone to hurt you
to lie to you,
or tell all of your secrets

Aún recuerdo con alegría la hora del cuento. Mi abuela Etsuko siempre venía cada noche a contarme un cuento antes de irme a la cama. Pero eso fue años atrás. Ahora había crecido y no tenía tiempo para cuentos de hadas y leyendas. Pero, esa noche, quise saber un poco de su sabiduría.
-Abuela, necesito tu ayuda -le dije mientras que ella le pegaba un sorbo a su taza de té.
-¡Vaya, Nana! Ya hacía muchos años en los que no me pedías que yo te contara algo.
-Es que necesito entregar una leyenda de nuestro país para mañana y no se me ocurre ninguna.

de cambiar, de renacer, de crecer
de sentir el cambio en mi ser
y de comenzar a trazar mi caminar
Tengo miedo, y lo admito
pero hay algo que lo supera
y es la verdadera naturaleza
de las experiencias que vivo
nadie me dirá como debo vestir
cambié mis pequeños zapatos de charol
Por unso grandes de tacón
Nadie me dirá como debo vivir
Cambié mis vestidos de vuelo
por unos que me ciñen el cuerpo
Es algo dificil
tomar esas decisiones
que cambian tu vida a horrores
y que a veces no sé que decir
cual es mi camino a elegir

That's The TruthThat's The Truth1 year ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
Just relax and take deep breaths,
Count to ten and take it easy.
Death is due,
And the truth can come out.
We're both dead so no secrets now.
Yes he loves me,
And I love him too.
No point in denying
When my mind screams it's true.
So I lower my barriers and speak out.
I love you Ani and that's the truth.

The tremor that passed through Darth Sear's vessel told him that he had landed on the planets surface. He was excited. Despite the fierce battle being fought over head, he had felt the Jedi break off from the republic fleet and make his way down here. What was so important, that the republic would allow such a powerful asset to abandon them mid battle? The Sith lord wanted to find out. Mostly, he wanted to test himself against the so called might of the Jedi. He had only ever encountered the Jedi once before. A Padawan. His master had slain him with ease. Now it would be his turn.

OpenIf I opened my heart just like a book,Open5 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
how would you see me? Would you even still look?
Would you push me away and pretend I'm not there?
Would the honest me be just too much to bear?
If I threw away caution, let it fly in the wind.
Told you my secrets let all of you in.
Would you still look at me kindly, even still care?
Would you hold my hand gently and still be there?
If I looked at you with anger and sadness or fear,
with you, knowing the reasons, still lend an ear?
If I was to cry and fall down on my face,
would you lie and say nicely it was done with some grace?
With all of my faults laid out to see,
could you accept them a

A Hierarchy lost in translation,
laid out before us, but so forgotten.
Lord forgive us our folly,
Such great division,
for reasons many.
To my human eyes,
the scorching history,
wayward amid all anarchy.
Fractions to masses,
to lead and wage war.
The eternal struggle,
to which we are oblivious,
but so highly involved.
Lord forgive me,
as I fear my efforts are in vain.

Tragedy, abrupt to my very soul,
that left me far from whole.
The withered memory born unto my dreams again,
refreshed and once more binding me by chain.
The reopening scars I once upon a time, thought healed,
gape wide to open for the flood gates, red and revealed.
My witnessing eyes bleed out old tears from a rusted well,
Attempting again to put back out the fires of this age old Hell.
The rising waters find my feet and climb,
the two floods meet, where their cause is rhymed.
My heart from which the blood and tears flow,
now at where the pain does ever grow.
Close these outpouring wounds, build back up the walls...
