Dark CreationPromises made but never keptDark Creation5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Things said but never meant
Words are lies
That cause pain
Broken trust
Dying heart
Mind fading
Body withering
You did this
With your promises unkept
And your words not meant
Creating my painful death

And set them on your fence.
Why your fence of all fences
I cannot comprehend.
The picket lines traversing
The rotting, falling hills
Were so white and so pristine
In the world destroyed by will,
And though you destroyed the waving colors
That are now a rusted past
Your fence was the only thing
I could see that stayed to last.
And so it goes to show, I think
That though you did us wrong
You are Something in the Nothing,
And you would help me should I fall.
The Beauty of MusicMusic makes me forget all my troubles,The Beauty of Music4 months ago in Journal Scraps More Like This
It doesn't make me worry anymore.
Music makes my happiness to double,
It will forever have all mi amor.
The melody brings such sweet harmony,
That I feel like I'm flying in the sky,
Where the lyrics are so full of beauty,
The sweet sounds and lyrics make me feel so high.
But sometimes it just deepens the wounds more,
Music has control over my feelings,
It dictates my life and I despise that
It makes me feel weak but it's so daring.
I may loathe how it controls my feelings
But it's the reason why I'm still living.
I Swear I'd be Pretty AgainIf you told the skyI Swear I'd be Pretty Again4 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
that blue was nice,
but not your favorite color,
I swear it'd glow more vibrantly.
And likewise, if you
could only find the courage to
tell me I am not perfect,
that I am flawed,
and that sometimes,
you can't bear to
be around me,
I swear I'd try harder.
If you could only tell me I changed
and that I'm not who I was,
If you could only tell me
that I am ugly,
I swear I'd be pretty again.

Longer yet to forget.
Eighty-nine to die, and
I picture you instead.
I wasn't there to knwo it,
But I took his age-old hand,
And squeezed the dyng fingers
As you left me once again.
You aren't here to see it,
But nobody's new again.
If I wre you and you were me,
We'd think we were the same.
Bu if I dared to tell you,
You'd just have to disagree,
Not because you think it wrong,
But because it came from me.
And through the night we traverse
In the mystery of dark,
Walking through the histories
and piecing broken hearts.
I can't quite see, I need your eyes,
I need your helping hand.

Promises that were never kept,
The nectar down the flower gold,
Sliding from a monster's hold,
and taking up the silvered sea,
To fill its heart so flawlessly.
And words won't save you, so I pray
That I'll love this city again, someday,
Now Atlanta's just a burial ground,
And the broken cries are silent sounds;
The dying sky won't hold it long,
And the world will crash around your song.
The dullest grays and brightest reds,
Hide interiors you never guessed,
And the frost on my window, stars of white
Won't show me if the story's right.
The silvered fingers 'round a golden blade
Tell that the story wasn't writ nor
I'm a MonsterMonsters are inside of me,I'm a Monster4 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Monsters are the size of my jeans.
Monsters will never let me be.
Fighting against me and this thing I am forced to call a body.
Monsters are carbs,
I am the superhero with the power starve.
Monsters are the suspicious people around,
Monsters are the sounds,
Escaping my humongous stomach.
Monsters are horrid objects such as ovens.
Monsters are ugly and fat,
And I am just that.

I Wonder...Sometimes I wonder what I am,I Wonder...4 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
If all these pieces actually make a man
Or if I’ve lost a piece or two
From all the times I’ve shattered.
I can’t help but wonder that maybe
If my pieces are scattered,
That the moon might make a nice eye,
And the black night sky its lid.
Perhaps the stars would be better,
But they shine in another sky,
Of her own scattered puzzle,
Hidden behind their own black veil.
And I ask myself,
How we can all be so broken,
And still have hope that maybe,
Somehow,
Someone can put us back together,
And we might be happy again.
Sometimes I catch myself wondering
If maybe someone else has the pieces

Wanting a beautiful kiss.
The lips they know too well,
Gradually I feel my mind compelling,
Back to almost a month ago,
When I was still apart of the freak show.
Dancing on the stage,
With a pointy blade,
Focused on a luscious vein.
The oh's and ah's of the crowd causes pain,
I finally notice how different I really am.
I finally notice there is nothing I can,
Do to pick up the glass without getting cut.
I finally noticed that all I am is a nut.
I finally noticed that deep down I'm in the freak show for life,
I can no longer hide and fight,
The true me when it's thriving to come out.
In this moment I do doubt,

Watch the WorldI watched the sky fall,Watch the World6 months ago in Songs & Lyrics More Like This
Watched my world snap like a twig.
But that's okay, 'cause my heart is brick.
And how can you break
When you weren't whole to start with?
And how can you fall
When you can't bear to get up and walk?
Watch the world spin,
Watch it spin 'til it stops.
Watch the world break,
Watch it all fall apart.
I watched the rain fall,
I watched you dissolve,
But it's fine, we had nothing at all.
And how can you see
When you can't find your eyes?
And how can you know me
When you tell yourself you are blind?
Watch the world spin,
Watch it spin 'til it stops.
Watch the world break,
Watch it all fall apart.

Go away
Bring the rain clouds back to play
Bring the gloom back here today
Keep the sky a cloud-filled gray
Sunlight; Sunrays
Please stay away
No one wants you here today
Have the rain clouds here to stay
Let the rain fall in every way

Why do you stay?
Where is the sadness? Where is the grey?
Why is it a happy day?
Why do you smile at me this way?

Come back again
Make the water never end
Wash away all of the sin
Help me never stay locked in

Fall on my skin
Keep the happiness within
Block out everywhere I've been
Never asking where, or when

Break me down within

They bounce inside you
They fly silently
Hardly seen but beautiful
Butterflies
Flying free
Give soft kisses to flowers
Brushing wings with eyelashes
Butterflies
Tell you when you're nervous
Tell you when you're excited
Let you know who you love
Butterflies
Make you sick with hope
Make you feel light
Set you free
Butterflies
They love much
They break easy
They stay just out of reach
Butterfly is me.
Butterflies are we.
I live on the outsideI live on the outsideI live on the outside3 months ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Staying far from those
Who act and pretend and fake...
I build my silent wall
Hiding behind its strength
Bracing for an unexpected quake...
I stand alone in shadow
Light, I'll never face
Nothing do I take...
I search a lonely road
Forever one path to follow
Ceasing never, to stay awake...
I fight away monsters
My own too weak to fight
Wondering when I'll finally break...
I cannot find the inside
The place you all call home
Its a risk I cannot take...
I am stuck in my own thoughts
My own sick and twisted mind alone
Wishing to sleep, but never wake...
Once AgainThe moment I think of letting you inOnce Again3 months ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Is the moment you turn away again.
When I think, "this is the one"
You laugh at me, because its so fun.
I try to open up
But my mouth keeps getting shut.
You say I'm with you, until the end
You say I love you, my best friend.
I almost want to reach out
Almost can't hold back the shout
I'm struck to find, its no surprise
That what I thought was only lies...
The UrgeThe Urge3 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Sit.
Relax.
Listening to the music.
Look at my legs.
See the scars blaring out.
See the big Butterfly.
Imagination spurs bloody cuts.
Breath quickens.
Energetic rage.
Get the knife.
The need to spill blood is so strong.
But instead…
Burst into tears,
Crying for the monster I've turned into.
Once a happy soul,
Now a clouded one.
When you can’t explain yourself,
And people don’t understand.
When the Plan doesn't work,
And the original resort fails,
What’s there left to turn to?

Even if it's just because
I know a guy
Who would buy beer for them
Because we're still to young
Maybe If I stole
People will hang out with me
Even if its just because
They know I would take anything
If It meant
They we're my 'friends'
Maybe if I dressed different
People will know my name

From a boy who's name

Maybe if I changed

The way I give myself off?
The way I wish I could be?
The person is different,
They aren't me.
Maybe this, is what you see:
A girl obsessed with killing and gore,
Integrating herself with psychos,
A girl who's looking for blood, more and more;
A girl who enjoys creepy people out,
Smiling and threatening slow painful deaths,
Being loud, just to scream and shout;
A girl who wants horror and chills,
Watching gorey R-rated movies,
Just to give herself thrills;
A girl who takes violent music literally,
And uses them for future inspiration....
But that's not me. I'm sorry.
Let's revise that, the person you know,
