And now for the sad poems. feel free to put anything here. please don't cry on mine, thats all.

Loss Poem

My heart is coal
Black as my soul
For I am alone
And none can console

Happiness no more
This venom’s reached my core
For with my friends that vanished
All my light is banished

All is gone that I hold dear
My spirit wasted, no more tears
A thunderous noise, depressions roar
A call to join what I adore

I’ve lost all that is close
I am now beyond morose
At times like this, the paths you can choose
You can never triumph, and you can only lose

The Jumper

When I was standing on the bridge
A voice called out, "Don't jump!"
I gave her a look of confusion
"The sunset looks so pretty right now."
The only words I whispered to myself.

Soon a crowd was gathered
Urging me not to jump
"Your life is so good."
"You have so much to live for!"
But I still stared out into the setting sun.

Policemen were called onto the scene
A nice man in blue was coaxing me away from the edge
"Why would you want to jump?"
I asked myself the same question.
"What would you do in my situation?"

The sun was almost set
The lake shimmered with the light
I spread my arms like the eagle
Flying into the crisp blue sky
The crowd let out a silent gasp, watching my every move

The eagle in my heart took flight
I watched the sky turn dark
I saw the crowd turn away in disgust
I heard the ticking of my watch
Then I flew back home.


I seriously do not know what I was thinking when I wrote this... give me some positive (or neagtive) feedback about it.

this is an odd combo of this and love, well here it is...

Comfort my spirit
(damn it with your words)
My ghost-ship life please steer it
(destroy it with your touch)
Heal my many injuries
(infect me with your heart)
Fend away my enemies
(beckon them with your soul)
Tell me what is true
(confuse me with your mind)
Tell me why I love you
My Demon in Disguise

I wrote a response poem to the last one:

Put your hand here on my heart
(Feel the heartbeat within)
Know I've loved you from the start
(You fuel my engine)
I'll never cause you pain
(My worst fear)
Over my life, you will reign
(Be my King)
I will never lie to you
(My honesty will be revealed)
You love me because I love you
My Dark Angel of the Night

It sucks, I know... don't tell me...

Silence, the cruelest fate of all
To not hear you talk, even when I call
I need a comforting word, talk to me
I need to hear your voice, confide in me
My life is tattered, broken and gone
When the one I love says none
To shreads, my heart is torn
Your welcome, never worn
Please don't shut out my desperate cries
As quickly, my words turn to sighs
Don't give me the cold shoulder
The world will get a lot colder
Please say you love me again
Please say you'll never leave again


That was called "Silence"

This is called "Departure" (for now at least)

I'm glad we can have our time
But soon the day will come
When you have to leave behind
Childhood memories and fun.
College will be your destination
Alone is where I'll be
But, you're still in my imagination
And you can still have me.
My life will be vacant without you
I'll no longer be who I was
And I'll have nothing left to prove
For I am nothing without "us"
A glass left with nothing inside
And although you'll be leaving your place
My room will remain occupied
With a fraud smile upon my face.
I hope you know how I feel
I hope you know my pain
I want you to remain this real
Not just a memory I reign.

Would it make you cry if today I said goodbye
And never said hello again?
Would it hurt that much to never feel my touch
Or hear my voice again?
Could you imagine life with so much pain and strife
That you just had to escape?
And can you see me without bitter jealousy
And deny me my fate?

Would it bother you if these words weren't true
When I said that I'd never leave?
Would you make a wish to undo my final kiss
And start to believe?
Could life without me be that hard to see
That you ignore how I feel?
And when you see me, can you truly be free
And believe I'm real



What do you think? I can't think of a name for this one.. Any suggestions?

Hi, this is called "Chameleon":
She walks with them
when they smile she smiles
fog of euphoria
joyfully suffocates.

Sky becomes grey
rain begins to fall
she walks and they have forgotten
what it is to be alive
she too is one of the walking dead
and believes this is how life is, was,
and will be forever.

The sun reappears
and though they smile again
she believes laughter is no longer real
and continues to cry.
