You smile so sweetly

A Couple of MolesYou have a couple of moles on the top of your head.A Couple of Moles1 year ago in Free Verse More Like This
I only ever noticed while running my fingers through your hair after you got that haircut.
I hated that haircut, but I loved you enough not to mention it.
Well, maybe I didn't hate it so much. It brought out your eyes. And your smile. Nothing can hide your face anymore, because you don't really wear hoodies. I don't think I've ever even seen you with a hood up. You don't even try to hide from me.
I love your face. A little pimpley, but that never bothered me. Although you probably think it does. It's still the sexiest, warmest, and most inviting face I have ever seen.
Especially when yo

Give your soul
And pour your heart
That's how we live
And how we start
But in this day
I feel we're lost
Left our hearts
To bitter frost
And the only red
Are stains of war
Is this what we
Were fighting for
To start one our own
Within ourselves
One that gold
And diamond quells
Built of lies
And friendly hate
I know no one
Knows the weight
Of Earth and lands
Of Sun and Moon
Share the burdens
Lift them soon
That's how we tend
To ease our pain
and how we mend
We're all the same
In how we sing
For things we hold
So dear with hands
Of plated gold

WeaknessI was so alone.Weakness2 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
In a dark cold place with no one to hear me.
The concrete floor chilled my skin as my bare feet rested upon them.
Where was everyone?
Are they here?
Am I going insane?
Thunder cackled outside as the heavy nights rain endured.
My carefully polished black nails scratched at my skin.
Big ugly black tears strolled down my face.
He had hurt me.
He always hurt me.
With his harsh words and handsome face, he was my weakness.
A weakness which I hated.
I hated being vulnerable.
I hated showing my emotion.
He had me under his spell.
With his raven hair and devilish eyes, I fell for him.
He would never catch me.

So torn apart
You feel that urge
To choke your heart
To end it's life
But not your own

With gravity to endless rain
So rich and stained
By truths and pasts
The sad one is
It never lasts

Just a face
So stricken fro

Monsters, ghouls
Are here for me
And I don't know
What's this about?
I see briefly
When lights go out
A flash of darkness
And there they are
Demons, spirits
And never far
Sit next to me
Upon the red edge
Of eternal damnation
And toss me off ledge
They raze my mind
And horror goes
Left alone
Where no one knows
Flickering lights
I hate you so
So silent plight

But whenever something happens that shows me what the truth actually is,
it's a rusted nail driven into my chest, near my heart

I cannot die, but I cannot live.

Of warm December
I am darkness
Cold not heartless
But know I shine
In moonlit starkness
For mine's a dark
So born of fires
Built of passion
Red desires

And let it free
Take me where
I want to be
The sea's unknown
And so am I
Just give me wings

But their name, I'll never show,
'Cause there's no point in telling you
Your own name, so
Let's keep this riddle going, no?
My best friend isn't like me,
They've got these strings, you see?
Kind of like these, all knotted and teased
Hanging off from their lips to their knees,
But if you cut them all off, set yourself free
That'd be dandy, 'cause you're all I need
My heart's in a cage, so is yours
A cage of bones and secondhand stores
And the rain keeps falling down in downpours,
But make the better of it, and grab your oars
((If my heart isn't broken, why should I fix it?

that I care for you, my love.
I may glance at you from afar,
but I see you as an angel from above.
It is out of commitment
that I stay by your side,
even when you are full of sorrow
and can no longer hold the tears that you hide.
It is out of enchantment
that I cherish you.
There have been others that have fascinated me,
but you're the only one I'd rather make love to.
It is out of compassion
that you make me melt, my dear.
You have touched my heart
so now losing you is all I fear.
I am hopelessly in love with you
for all that I know.
It is out of earnest devotion
that I love you so.

Out through the glade
Under darkness cover

Let's be alone

May bring demise
But mirror mirror

Xentha Ever since Xhentha Stones began circulating in the magical community, chaos and death have run rampant. If a non magical person came in contact with a stone, they contracted an incurable disease, and die within six hours. It was thought to be a great way of eliminating people.Xentha8 months ago in Short Stories More Like This
That is, until the first Turning. Persons of magical nature were transformed by Xhentha. Some became monsters or animals. Others well, depending on the person, they might retain much of their human forms, with extra growths. Wings, tails, fangs, horns any number of things.
There is no returning a Xhentha victim to their original form. Not all who come in

Dans sa course effrénée contre la mort, elle ne pensait plus à rien, sinon aux préceptes qui dictaient désormais sa vie. Aucun doute un elle, aucune faiblesse.

Why can't they say go left,

Why does every interaction

Not old enough to understand,
But not young enough
For someone to hold my hand-

There's a silver stream,

Far from the forest,
Where the stream runs dry-
There's a flower field,
On a mountain side-
Where the lilies bloom-
And the moon glows bright-
And the stars themselves come kiss you good night-
Where a summer breeze whisks your thoughts away,
And you dream sweet dreams,
Until the next day-
Where I say I love you,

Your way of loving just isn't nice-
And the only reason I'm around is to see you pay the price.

First love,
First kiss-
It's all so
Hit or miss.
Mine was a stream,
I thought the ocean.
Now even that's run dry-
So go right ahead,
Fill the riverbed,
With the tears you cry-
Disillusioned,
I open my eyes that I had left closed-
Glad to be submissive,
Leaving your tirades unopposed-
But no man is my happiness,
He must show me love and tenderness-
Or he can watch as I walk out the door-
Knowing I won't come
