A Self-created Fantasy.I am the master of my destinyA Self-created Fantasy.3 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
No one shall carve my way but I.
I am the leader of my dreams
I am responsible if I live or die.
I am the creator of my madness,
the father of my desperation.
The maker of my fears
the fuel to self-made validation.
I reap my own rewards
for the work I have completed
the one broken and forlorn
when my riches were depleted.
I am the prophet of my beliefs
choosing which way to follow
The compass of my morals
I'm to blame if I'm hollow.
I am the keeper of my pride
for the good deeds I claim to give.
The martyr at my own cross
for the way I chose to live.
I am the maker of my destiny,
no one shall carve my way bu

Dead at 16My worries are a reservoirDead at 164 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Her worries are a lake
In that they’re very real indeed
Whereas mine are very fake
Invented to seek attention
Lies, oh despicable lies
One day I’ll drown in metaphors
Please be sure to sympathise
But while you show me this concern
Who'll be looking out for her
Blood curdling screams from my mouth
She is nil by mouth and verse
I have cried wolf so many times
She can’t even cry her own tears
My lies are spun in silk cobwebs
My spinneret shrouding your ears
I spoon fed you daily doses
So it was easier to digest
I planted those seeds of sorrow
Your fertile mind did the rest
Lies, all those despica
What You DeserveWhat You Deserve9 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
"Life's a lot worse for me"
That's what you said,
And once again I fell back a few,
Into the crowd again.
I was left to deal with my pain—
Alone.
Every time, I came to you,
Hoping you would care;
And every time you turned me away,
For me, time you would not spare.
"Best friends forever"
Yeah, that's a lie,
One you told me again and again,
You didn't even try.
Well, here you stand in tears
In front of me,
I don't care what you've been through,
Because you weren't there for me.
"Life's a lot worse for me"
Now that's what I'm telling you.
I'll never take a glance in the past,
I hope you miss me, too.
BackstabbedCan you see the tears running down my faceBackstabbed6 years ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
Do you hear the sound of a heart breaking
My eyes speak of the pain that I've had
My body speaks of the betrayal
It's too bad you're blind and deaf
Then maybe you'd see
How big the sacrifice was that I gave
You ask the wrong questions
The information that you have
Profits you nothing
A silent shadow I am becoming
The sparkling girl you saw has gone
Maybe later it will be different
It also could never change
The knife you stabbed in my back
Can you see my blood running down
Yet you know nothing
Why should you
I'm not human
I'm not a woman
I'm just a pretty toy

Back from bargains, back from brawls
All that paid may now stay
And as a gesture, I'll reward.
You'll find in hand a seating chart
Your name assigned a certain spot
For tonight I will prepare a sight-
The best a Thief can afford
A banquet sprawl, for your consumption,
And before you start your trite assumptions
Be aware, no ill-will bared,
For as they say, third time's the charm.
Dress yourself in finest guise
If not prepared, I shall provide;
Shirts and strings, and frilly things
For tonight, we mean no harm.
A dinner feast will you find
If seated at the proper time
Converse and talk, don

Abused me,
Got in my head
And refused me.
You broke me,
Choked me,
And from the dream
We were living
You woke me.
You're a coward,
You're scoured,
And at last
I finally tower,
Over you as I leave.
She paid the cost for ChristmasDear Santa,She paid the cost for Christmas5 months ago in Concrete Poetry More Like This
Her bones seem brittle,
and her skin looks pale,
her hairs disappearing,
and there's an endless wail.
I don't ask for a cure;
there isn't one to be found,
but please Dear Santa
help to stop the sound.
They say that you are jolly
so please find a smile,
that's all I want
instead of a present pile.
To hear her laugh once more,
to see her eyes shine bright,
is all I can ask of you
to help her see the light.
If you are all about faith
than let her believe once more,
because there is no way I can help
her smile at what's in store.
Santa...
please help her
now!
Christmas is too far away

Zombie ChristmasIt was the day after Christmas, and all through the town,Zombie Christmas4 years ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
All the people were infected, their skin green and brown.
The survivors were hiding, in the gym in the school.
Being outside, you’d meet a fate most cruel.
A safe place they knew of, not one they could think
To escape to undead, the skin so did stink
There was Mac with his rifle, and I with my knife
Had just settled in, preying for our life.
When out by the door, there arose such a clatter.
We four sprang to our feet to see what was the matter.
“They found us!” Tess cried as she shook with fear.
“I knew they were close by! I knew they were near!”

And all through the house
Not a sound could be heard
'Cause the family was out
Except for the girl
Who had curled up to cry
'Neath the boughs of the tree
On that cold winter's night
Now, a Christmas tree
With lights all a glow
While the windows outside
Reflect falling snow
Is no place to mourn
No, it’s no place to weep
When the parents aren’t home
And the household’s asleep
But her heart's like a candle
Of old, melted wax
That's held not a flame
Since two Christmases past
So while the next day would dawn
With festivity and cheer
She would paste on a smile
Like she had ever

stop trying to pretend,
that you give a f**k about me
You made me smile
Now it's been a while
I only frown when I see you
Don't you get it your my down point?
Your wrongs won't make it right
Your negatif opinions won't make me better
You've screwed me up, it's time for you to witter
I stand with out you to hold me from my dreams

When I needed your help
You bailed on me
Left me stranded in my darkness
To despise and torture my soul
Till the moment I saw you again
To destroy and get revenge is my plan

I Saw HerI saw her,I Saw Her5 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
The little girl with
The crooked smile.
The one who
Knew that a skinned
Knee stung less
Than being made
To feel worthless
Well by the age of six.
The one whose smile
Hide a shattered soul.
The tattered hem,
Of her little dress
A metaphor
For her self-esteem
In the years to come.
The dirt streaked down
Her little cheeks
Like the stain
Of the hurt she
Felt until she was older.
I saw her
Hiding under her
Blanket at night
Trying hard not to cry.
I saw her
As the years
Flew by,
Believing all
The things he'd
Yell at her.
Hiding a secret
Behind a wall of lies.
I saw her,

At the end of the final chapter
Most stories end happily after
Enchanted evenings; dreams coming true
Believing in magic; it could happen to you
Fairy tales fuel our dormant fires
Romantic films quench our inner desires
Demons become friends; fun times never end
Must be nice to live in a realm of pretend
That's not how things work in the real world
The hero doesn't always win his girl
People pass away; buildings crumble and fall
Cinderella's mice in reality would be mauled
Teacups don't sing; at least none that I know
Carpets can't glide through the wind's blow
Crabs do not dance; that is really absurd
Animals can't talk; at

You light up my world like the sun,
On a hot summers day.
I wanna be angry
But I am delayed,
By your love and your passion,
With your sweet serenade.

But this time I'm late.
You calmed me, you loved me.
Oh my heart did inflate.
I wanna be angry,

You're everything, my life,

But it feels like you are slipping away
Right through my finger tips
I don’t know what it is
I could just be over thinking
I could just be getting worked up for nothing
Or maybe you've gotten bored of me
Or something else like that.
Won’t you just talk to me?
Please just talk to me
I need reassurance
I need to know whether you still want me or not
I need to know if you are really slipping
While I fall even more in love with you each day
It seems to me you are slowly walking away
I need this please
Please just tell me
Tell me what you want
Tell me what to do
I’d do anything just to keep you.

You will hear things

to skip
and pretend you didn't
hear a single thing.
You will hear things
and you would want
to pause
and take a moment
to absorb what happened to us.
You will hear things
and you would want
to stop
everything

Maybe I don't
synchronize right
with people,
but I want to -
with you.
I would love
to be the one
who provides you
your favorite sounds,
and we can sing along.
We can create our

with our own lyrics
attached to
our own story.
And if it is just right,
it shouldn't matter
if the shit I say

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

Every moment my eyes follow you,
Your every step, every smile.
I've never felt tired to follow-
Your foot steps everywhere.
Every time you fill my
Thirsty eyes with desire.
My every thought
Just want to follow you always.
Like an endless book,
I read you everyday,
But you'll never know.
I want to tell my feelings for him many times. I want to write a letter to him, but...
I want to write a letter
To tell you something
Deep from my heart,
In a summer morning.
But they were lost-
In a rainy evening.

Shaco, Deciever of DeathDo you know of the terror that lurks out of sight?Shaco, Deciever of Death7 months ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
The horror that stalks dependent on night?
He lays traps in the shadows of every living thing
That jump out with a jolt from a tightly coiled spring.
He is no man, not even a mere man,
The age of time has left his thoughts unplanned.
He cackles and appears, writing a new joke,
Scribbling the words with his knives, to the back, a nasty poke.
His mask has sealed on from the passing of time,
A never ending smile for death happens best when done in rhyme.
From the brush, from the walls, from the trees,
Knives take flight down towards his enemies.
Poisoned blades falling to slice and d

I'm quite satisfied these days, I shouldn't complain

I don't give a damn
I don't f***** care!
You judge me,
Look at me like I'm an alien
You only look with your eyes
You only listen to what others tell you
About me
You don't speak to me
You don't even try to get to know me
All you do is look and hear
I thought you were nice,
I thought we could be friends
But no
You just look and hear
Look at me with judged eyes
Thinking of who you think I am
When I'm not like that
Hear what others tell you about me
Good or Bad
Either way now,
I. Don't. Care. Anymore!
Sooner or later
You'll realize who I really am
And see how you treated me
Not with bullying and fists
But with a judging glare towards me
And saying that you Hate me...
And for what?
I never did anything to you
Just liking you isn't a crime
But NO
You didn't see that
All you did was look and hear
I was hurting because of you
I wanted to cry
But I couldn't
I wanted to scream
But nothing came out of me
So now
I'll move on,
Because
