The SilenceHello person I've barely met.The Silence6 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
One who never speaks a word.
Not a syllable or sentence
Well, not that I've ever heard
Ah, the sweet language of silence;
The secret of seclusion.
For it takes two to strike dialogue
Unless, you are master of illusion
I wish to solve your imperceptible mystery
I wish to find the answers I'll never know
Yet, here we are, simply two people,
Surrounded by unspoken thoughts and a silent echo.
I wish to witness the world through your eyes
Deep sapphire orbs, a beacon in the night;
Why of the senses, undermine speech;
Yet favor taste, sound, touch and sight?
I'm on a coastline, you're on the opposing cliff
I battl

RazorSweet little friend,Razor5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
You are the only one that
Truly understands me.
The only one that
Holds my hand
When I am
Breaking.
The one that listens
When I am upset.
The only one that
Hears me crying.
The one that counsels
Me how to cope with life.
And you're hungry
For more blood.
You are jumping and
Screaming
Ready to be fed.
You love the softness of
My skin, and you promise to
Be gentle when you break
Through the vein.
But you're not strong enough.
You aren't sharp and bold
Like the others.
You're such a frail creature
And now it's your turn
To be disposed.
In the trash,
Where you always belonged.

Stenciled Smiles on Paper HeartsI don't like to feel this wayStenciled Smiles on Paper Hearts6 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
There must be something I can say
Cause I hate just watching you
When I know the pain you're going through
Listen…
You're not alone; I've been where you are
Contemplating where I'll place my next scar
Hiding razor kisses underneath long sleeves
It doesn't make it better; nothing is achieved
Believe me…
All you'll earn are the scars you've got and
The lesson learned is the lesson forgotten
You feel like no one's there, no one cares what you do
Let me put it to you straight: That is never true
I Know…
I was shunned, pushed away many times before
Then I realized it was I who had closed the door

it fills me with glee.
I hop and I jump delightedly.
When you see me you cower,
your eyes beg me don't tell.
I stood there laughing
while your tears fell.
Your secret is mine;
forever in my grasp.
I just want you to watch your back.
Cause you never know
when someone will attack.

Black is Not a Color.Saved.Black is Not a Color.6 months ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
Fire and miss.
Bleed Again.
I inhale the deepest scent of regret.
Warmth in the cold, but not in the same way a smile is warm.
Not pleasant, not kind. Filled with the taste of hell.
Saved.
Fire and miss.
Bleed Again.
I fall again. Into the dark and into the cold.
With the hateful warmth that drips to the floor, quiet.
Much more silent than a gunshot, just as deadly.
Saved.
Fire and miss.
Bleed Again.
I am nothing, in the same way that black is not a color.
Tasting the Cold, Dark, Blankness, nothingness of who I am.
And just as I am nothing, nothing can sav

where was I going with this?Hey therewhere was I going with this?6 months ago in Concrete Poetry More Like This
where are you going?
slow down.
All I wanted was you.
Now Like sand you just slip
out of my fingers.
At least turn back
one last time
Can I please relapse?
Roads like paintings
without ends.
This life takes us
across rivers and mountains
mixing and erasing bonds.
Everything has changed.
Do you remember laughs and panics?
the constant freak out that seem to cut our throat.
come claim this prize, you forgot tot take when leaving was the only priority.
This is an ending, okay?

I Used To BeI used to be so optimisticI Used To Be6 months ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
I used to pray and hope and love
But I closed my eyes and lost it
And now I live in lands of frost
Growing up killed all my dreams
It made me see the World
I used to laugh and love and breathe
But now I'm caught in life so cold
I used to be so sure of living
I used to smile to myself
Unaware of the World I lived in
And unaware of strength of wealth
I'll never be what I did dream
I'll never see the world I wanted
I can't afford to still believe
In dreams that only ended haunted

ScarsI look at the new scarsScars3 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Some deeper than others.
Past slashes that are still visible.
I run my fingers over them,
Having a unique texture.
I cherish them.
They keep me alive.
My blade has been taken away.
And the urge comes now and then.
When I’m lonely.
I’ve resorted to scratching,
Burning.
Choking.
The rush is exhilarating.
But it doesn’t last
As long as my beloveds.
Still touching them.
I close my eyes…
And smile.

Venting and MadnessTie knots around you teeth and sink to the surface, clearing the air with each sheep you slaughter.Venting and Madness5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Eliminate the consequences divided into threes, protect those you loathe and love the ones you leave.
I've seen enough reality to know my own is fake, slithering and curling around all the truths like a snake.
And still beyond your concerning thoughts lies a simplistic little party, invite me to it darling and I will confiscate your life.

A Single DeathA single word echoed through the hallA Single Death6 months ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Rounding up, it dissolved into the wall,
A single tear slipped down her cheek,
She felt finished, weak,
A single gasp escaped her lips,
As she lost her grip,
A single thump,
Down her body slumped,
A sigle life was lost,
At evil's cost.

Lost and unaware.
Drowning in my despair.
Look me in the eyes;
tell me this is fair!
Shelter from these dark skies
is impossible to find.
Demands, demands!
If no one understands,
how can anyone care?
Tears fall as I stare
at my life,
a wasteland so bare.
Tragedy, tragedy!
someone hold me steady!
Help me escape this fate
before it's over;
before it's too late!
Blind, blind!
Sickness of the mind,
cruel and unkind.
no respite will I find...
Ringing, ringing!
Can't you hear the voices singing
of the death knell?

NobodyNobody sees the lonely girl.Nobody4 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Nobody sees her shadow.
The lonely, the lonely girl.
Why are you so alone?
Standing in the darkness,
The reflection not visible,
Invisible to their eye.
Nobody remembers the lonely girl.
Nobody remembers her name.
The lonely girl, the lonely girl.
Why are you so alone?
Never trying to open your heart.
The face is always blurred,
Fuzzy in their minds.
Nobody cares for the lonely girl.
Nobody cares to help.
The lonely girl, the lonely girl.
Why are you so alone?
Always running away.
So fast,
too fast for their feet,
The lonely girl, the lonely girl.
Why you cannot see?
Nobody loves the lonely girl.
Lonely girl, can't you see?
I am the Nobody.

Tips to fix your lifeEveryone on this earth feels sad. We lose our jobs, have bad break ups, or our one day is just shot to hell. Some people don't take it as well as others. We hold stuff inside because we can't show our feelings. Maybe you don't have anyone at all. I've struggled with depression for years. Now that I found spirituality, I find myself more centered. So we ask ourselves Where Do I Start? Well, I know this society has a quick fix for everything but I will tell you right now. It simply won't work. I've tried every quick fix out there. Drinking, sex, food and many more. Those are all roads to addiction. Every single one. Now if you truTips to fix your life6 months ago in Miscellaneous More Like This

When They've GoneI'm left all aloneWhen They've Gone5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
When those few have gone.
I'm left reassuring myself;
Whispering white lies.
She's no longer there for me
Only a shell
As our days drag on.
I sing in hopes
To lighten my spirit
But soon
I don't have enough strength to speak.
Nod and walk away.
Smile and keep hiding.
Try to stay conscious
Even though thoughtless time
Seems savory.
No one will have noticed it...
My act of bravery.
Because I haven't let them see I was fading,
Dying,
All that was really me.
