FallingDead inside asking myself why?Falling6 months ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Why? Did I waste my time with you,
My heart can't take anymore punishment,
I need to turn my back and start anew,
I know I'm not the only one who feels like this,
You think you find the one but there's only hurt no bliss,
You put time to make them happy but all you feel is pain,
Just constant hurt that washing over you like rain,
Everything I thought I wanted was you,
But at the start I had no clue,
Absolutely no clue what I was going to be going through,
I'm like a prisoner in my own prison,
Sitting waiting for happiness just wishin',
That one day this pain will come to an end,
And I can say I am
Disappering ActShe stares at the photo,Disappering Act8 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Of the face she knows so well,
He's smiling back at her,
She wonders what secrets it can tell.
The picture is almost one year old,
She's lost contact with him since then,
He just seemed to disappear,
Did he really love her as more than a friend?
He said he did, said he cared,
But then why did he go away?
Tears fall from the young girls eyes,
There are so many things she wanted to say.
Still the photo sits on her desk,
And he's smiling that goofy grin,
Though she still thinks about him a lot,
And how much she misses him.
What I wouldn't giveWhat I wouldn't giveWhat I wouldn't give5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
To feel my heartbeat
For someone
Other than myself
Again
To dream
Of a girl
To hold me
Close
Enough to feel
Her heartbeat.
To watch her
As she slept next to me
And never want
To think of my life
Away from her
What I wouldn't give
To be in love
Again.
Together ForeverI’ve been waiting a long timeTogether Forever6 months ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
For this moment to come
After everything’s that’s happened
I still want to remember
What I saw in you
This isn’t the first time
Nor will it be the last
That I accidentally break
Our photographs
Something about my accidents
Makes me think
Will I ever get what I want from you
Or will I ever be able to say
We will be together, forever
You said that we will be together
We will be together, forever
I said that we will be together
Now its time to say
That we will be together forever
Reading your letters
Always makes me smile
I wanted to let you know
That I will be a while
Cause I’m fi

For you to race through my mind
The world seems to have stopped
Just to give me time to savor the picture,
The one of you that never leaves my head
And the best part is I get to enjoy it often
For in everything I do, I think of you
You are my inspiration, my hope
Balance to my life is brought by you
So I thank you, my dear, my darling,
Queen and guardian of my heart,
For being yourself.
Through These EyesIn a city where it rains so muchThrough These Eyes5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
How easy it is to just see gray
Not through these eyes though
These eyes see color everywhere
No sadness will be found in the rain
By me all that's found is joy and serenity
Each drop hitting the ground is a small symphony
I say let these tears of bliss fall from the sky
Breathe life into the plants
Quench the thirst of the city
This is what I see in a city so "gray"
And it is through these eyes
I catch a glimpse of something angelic
Inside of you,when I look into your eyes,
I can see it, feel it, deep inside of you
A mysterious elegance that pierces the heart
I know now, my queen, there is
I Am YoursLeave it to himI Am Yours5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
The one who's all steam
The one without a dream.
He'll take you home
To his castle of chrome
To be his imperfect clone.
Give him what he wants
He smiles and he taunts
He laughs and he haunts.
Force those three little words out
He likes it when you scream and shout
He likes it when you beg and pout.
Tell yourself that it's real
When you find him in bed with her
When you make him lose his temper.
Because that's all you are to him,
Another excuse to be angry.
A seed of lust gone too far for him,
But you meant everything to me.

make a wish
let the candelabras burn an inch
something precious
in the morning, evening kiss
you've always longed for.
Pray beneath the mistletoe, adorned
grab your popcorn
the couch besides the window looks so grand
take a peek
with a smack of lips on buttery fingers, *prang!*
there goes the earthly orb.
Park your derriere mid-chew
enjoy
the riots, panicked, raving loons
peering out
with that last piece of popcorn in your mouth
hear those shouts
that the world is ending
breathe the fumes
the flames are sending
see the crowds of mental patients cry
the morning after

Homecoming.The sound of wheels touching the runway,Homecoming.5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
the shrill screeches, the subtle sway.
I clutch my fingers a little tight,
I walk out the plane, feel the sun a bit more bright.
Take a step into the glass doors,
the sound of feet tapping against the floor.
Millions of people shuffling all around,
I grab my luggage and stumble right out.
I stand a little on my toes,
My eyes blown wide, My specs sliding down my nose.
I finally see the sight I need,
My smile so wide, I can't breathe.
A short man of age fifty three,
Hurries towards me like cavalry.
His face split into a warm grin,
His body frame gone slightly thin.
He stands millimeters i

A smile on Her face,
Since She has to be serious -
Like a step-mother
Wanting to bring you up properly
Into the averagely affluent adulthood,
Or like a distant mother,
Who wasn't even signing
The lullabies to make you
Fall into Morpheus's calm embrace.
You shall sing to Her
Hymns full of piety,
Since She has to be pleased -
Like a major advisor
Wanting to lead you by hand
To the island of a master's degree,
Or like your elementary school teacher
Demanding everything from everyone:
The burliness from weaker pupils
And the vault over a high-horse from them.
You shall pray to Her

.:.December.:.The month of December has changed my whole life,.:.December.:.5 months ago in Concrete Poetry More Like This
For this year it taught me who was right
The boy down or up in the sky
Neither would work for with both I would die.
Down on the Earth, I stayed that one night
I finally realized the Heaven boy's lies.
He was really a demon, no good in his heart
In reality, I shouldn't have believed him from the start.
He told me his lies
Faked all of his sighs
Only to break my frail heart.
The whole time I loved, he cared for another
To him, it seemed, I was only like a mother.
He used me to no ends
Threw me down on the bed,
And left a gap in the center of my heart.
But if I was To fly up into the sky
To Heaven, which is oh so high,
I would have seen in the bright white stars
the other girl who lays in his arms.
She, a goddess, who is soft on the eyes
Took the earth boy's heart by surprise
Wavy blonde hair that flowed down her
In the past...As I feel the pressure of your handIn the past...5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Wrapping around mine and not letting go,
My face beams out a crimson color
And the feeling of your fingers stroking
My hand lingers for minutes
And I can't help but wonder,
"Is this your weariness speaking,
Or is that really your voice
Piercing through?"
This thought clings to me for the
Time our hands are locked,
Until the time where you
Kiss my cheek with you lips,
And whisper your goodbye's.
Forgive meSorry I'm not perfect.Forgive me5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Sorry if I'm not what you want.
Sorry for being a brat all the time.
I'm sorry for being me.
I don't like fighting with you,
I always cry when we do.
Regretting what I did or said,
Hoping I haven't hurt you.
I hate myself for shouting at you,
Giving you dirty looks,
Stomping away and slamming doors,
Not listening to what you say,
And everything else I do.
I know I haven't been the best daughter in the world.
I'm fed up with myself too.
I'm trying to change and be a better person,
To you and everyone else around me.
Mum, Dad
I'm sorry,
Please forgive me.
AssassinA deadly sort of beautiful stealth.Assassin5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
A cunning kind of silent persiscion.
A spinning stlye of burning fight.
I'm an assassin, running free tonight.
Past the moon, across the stars
Running with blades and a metalic heart
Gliding over tiled rooves.
I
Can't
Loose.
Others have tried to lure me away
Claim the prize
But the loot only matters to the pirates and the theives
I have class (with a few lies).
I have fought back against their twisted games
Dark alleyways, or rich mansions,
They're all the same.
What this world really needs is an assassin.

To make my way through,
I'm breaking these doors down,
To make it to you,
I'm picking these locks,
To make it look easy,
I'm picking these locks,
Cause....
It's just what I do,
Don't question my ability,
To break the best doors,
Don't question my ability,
Or I'll question yours,
Don't question my ability,
To pick the best locks,
Don't question my ability,
It sharpens my claws.
Feeling the bite,
Feel the wrath after,
Aftermath comes faster,
Off the track... master,
Of disguises,
Wins the best prizes,
The leader that rises,
Everyone despises.
I'm smashing these windows,
To change our ways,
I'm smashing these wind

Fire light,
a question asked,
a layered mask
of fear and thought and love,
of the dove
the one that flies
asking whys
as it glides on broken wings.
Oh, he sings,
and it rings
and it lingers in the air
past the fair
golden hair of a lion.
And he's cryin'
and he's livin' for the kill
and the spill,
of the blood.
A bleeding flood
seeping down
past the frown
upon the face
of a women dressed in lace,
of the chase of the land
in the sand
waterfall
leaping, dying all
a rusty red.
In my head,
oh the light
in the eyes of the life
always fight for the everlasting will,
makes no sence, take the pill

EnigmaMystery is the element that bounds the unknown to realityEnigma6 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Something new to what we know
A world filled with secrecy to make it so
Mystery is the puzzle before the answer becomes clear
The silent riddle to discover
A hidden message to uncover
Mystery is words we hide to keep oneself unique
Those whispered words that no one hears
The fear of not knowing reappears
Mystery is what keeps us intrigued
The enigma itself remains in you
as it does in me
Stay this way... Stay unique
As this way there will always be something new to know
Even as we speak...
Ballad of the Doll MakerCome now; gather round! Men who areBallad of the Doll Maker5 months ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
Gentle, ladies fairer!
Hark now my words as I tell the
Tale of the Doll Maker!
There was once a youth, apprentic'd
To a master of old;
Who taught to his eager student
How to craft wooden dolls.
But these are not the toys girls play with,
For they resemble man,
And woman too; in size and look
They're finest in the land.
Now, th'apprentice was at the age
When he need'd to adore
A girl of his choosing; and sought his
Master's wisdom some more.
He search'd his teacher thoroughly,
Examining his brain,
So that in love, his ignorance
Will not fail him again.
The Master, agèd now and near
Done

A blue that's of the sea
It never fails to stop my breath
Each time you look at me.
Liquid topaz captured
Forever yours to keep
An everlasting, endless span
So unbelievably deep
A timepiece ticking softly
Away upon the sill
Slowly strips away the days
To take us back to yesteryears.
To the moment that we fell in love
In your eyes, I see it now
Your boutonniere and cummerbund
I in my soft blue satin gown.
Back then it was so different
We waited for so long
But when father finally did concede
That spark was far from gone
We took our time in getting here
But now so many years have passed

My father once told me that life is supposed to be a struggle
And that everyone has their own specific type of hustle.
Whether it be working in an office or stacking products on a shelf.
Naturally we all share the same aim of accumulating wealth.
He also told me that nothing is promised in this life time.
When you least expect it the man upstairs will throw you a life line.
Something or someone that will give you a reason to continue.
Awaken the hidden belief and talent that law dormant within you.
He then told me that happiness and success are short lived.
In time your name will both appear and disappear from life's short
