Title: Poems
Post by: Sam Gamgee on March 12, 2004, 01:24:42 AM
Meep...erm... :-[

The Witch King

Out of the shadows he doth come,
With heart so beating like death's drum,
From him so warriors, they must run,
Last calling of the dying sun.

And cross the glades and dying field,
Of whistling wind and of grave's seals,
Rusted mind that will not yeild,
And in small breath, nowt he feels.

And with a whisp of time and space,
And slow clang of blade or mace,
Whose foul scent doth unfix thy face,
And bleed thy soul of living grace.

Like flames on skin and axe on head,
Of, black name that cant be fed,
And to the darkness he is wed,
A servant of the Kings long dead.
Title: The Ley of the Walkers
Post by: Gomaithol on March 12, 2004, 08:54:11 PM
There was once a ring,
That if found by the Black Armies,
Would start havoc brung,
In the lands of Mordor where the shadows lie.

There was once a young hobbit, and Frodo his name,
Who found the ring, and was told to take,
The ring down to the depths of doom,
And there to put an end to the Dark lord's plans.

'I cannot go alone' said our Frodo,
'Yes, you are right, so I, Gandalf the Grey, young master Samwise, Boromir of Gondor, Gimli of Erebor, Legolas Prince of the Woodland realm, and of course your dear friends Meriadoc and Peregrin chose to go with you'.

And so they started, flying from their dear Hobbiton,
'Shall I ever see over these hills again?' wondered Frodo.
'Don't worry Mr. Frodo, we will.' said Sam,
'Yes, as usual Sam, your right,'

Onwards they went, up into mountains and down into forests.
Until one day they were halted, lost in vain, until they heard pounding hooves and cried: 'Who should go by here? Help us for we are lost!'

lol very good - you inspired me dark spirit! ;D ;D

The warm fire crackles in the hearth,
Yellow flames flickering before your eyes.
The heat folds around you,
Lulling you towards dreams.

The roaring fills your ears,
Hypnotic and soothing,
It seems to come in waves,
Bringing sleep upon the tide.

Hush now my love,
Lay your head here in the warmth.
Listen to the silence and
Slip slowly sideways into slumber.

In the darkness I finally see,
Just how much you meant to me,
I tried so hard to hide behind you,
I tried so hard to hide my heart,
Fearing that I would die,
My broken heart behind a smile,
Shattered hopes of lost dreams,
Of good times passed,
Consumed by screams.

So long it seemed since I smiled,
Before you came,
My life was dark,
Behind the shadows of my heart,
All I wanted now was you,
That truth I see as clearly as this love,
Warming this ice inside of me,
I wish to give my life to thank you,
I wish to give,
My heart to please you.

My world and love,
You saved me from darkness,
My one and only,
You saved me from shadow,
Protect me now,
From my own fears,
Protect me now,
Through our years,
Together as one,
In the peace of sunshine,
My world and love.
Title: Let me be
Post by: Lavinia on March 24, 2004, 11:55:10 PM
I long to be someone
Someone who has everything
Someone I can never be
I'll try to sort this out
Someone who cares,
Please, Give me a shout
I've lived, loved, hated, hurt and bled,
Felt the urge to stay and die in bed,
But every day I force myself to my feet,
Face another day behind my mask,
Knowing that every single person I meet,
Will hate me before I utter a breath
They chose me as their target
And thats all ill ever be
Who are they?
The collective name of bully.

Title: Beautiful
Post by: Lavinia on March 25, 2004, 12:20:23 PM
The sun through my window
The oasis in my desolate land
Thats what you are to me

You're beautiful my darling,
You make me feel like i'm flying
You're the song that makes me weep
You're the soul I long to keep

So baby, be with me til the night loses its stars
All I want is to be where you are
You're the music that makes me sing
You're the wind beneath my wing

Let the rain fall and drench us to the bone
Let the wind blow and tree's uproot
Just don't leave me on my own,
Lets share the same route.

You're beautiful my darling,
You make me feel like i'm flying
You're the song that makes me weep
You're the soul I long to keep


Stay with me

Title: Sweet Child
Post by: Lavinia on March 25, 2004, 12:21:46 PM
Since before you were born, Sweet child,
She dreamt of your face.
She longed to hold you in her arms,
And feel your returning embrace.

Though you feel they do not love you,
You are their very heart and soul.
For you, they would move Jupiter,
And all tears they would console.

They would try everything
To protect your little body
From being harmed by the cold.

They love you, sweet princess,
So wipe away your tears,
Tell them what scares you,
So they can chase off your fears.

They may seem harsh sometimes,
They just want to prepare
You for this world,
And hide you from despair.

Trust them, Little girl,
Let them guide your small feet,
Hand in hand walking,
Powerful, impossible to defeat.

Title: Death By Betrayal
Post by: Lavinia on March 25, 2004, 12:22:41 PM
When these black curtains are withdrawn,
You will see my heart is gone.
A bloodied knife lies upon the floor.
With this, my heart to shreds you tore.

My crumpled body is dying,
Love and loss combined,
From my clenched eyes I am crying,
Crimson blood like deep red wine.

You didn't want to hurt me,
So you tore me limb from limb,
My souless body is limp,
As paralysis sets in.

You are no longer mine,
I still belong to you.
With bloodied fists I beat the floor,
Shrieking pain ripping from my throat.

You killed my soul
You killed my heart
You took my body
And tore it apart.

Standing here alone,
Holding onto my phone,
Wondering to call you,
Do you know what i'm going through?

Holding the cards in my hand,
I'm gonna make one last stand,
Against these rumours,
Settling like tumours,
on my brain.

What am I?
A parasitic organism,
A living chunk of flesh,
A mere bipedal creature.

What are these thoughts?
Electric impulses
Pulsing through
Grey matter.

What is memory?
A dream,
An imagination,
Lost in time.

How do I know I had a yesterday?
Is tomorrow really real?


We can only ask.
The human race, struggling for meaning in a world full of chaos.

             No One Likes Me!

No one likes me,
For they say i'm mean,
Turn them to stone,
With one sharp gleam.

No one likes me,
For they say i'm hard,
No one can read me,
At the flip of a card.

No one likes me,
For i shire away,
Hidden away,
From the break of day.


No one likes me!
Title: Love Poem
Post by: Lost Prophet on March 26, 2004, 07:15:16 AM
hey, i wrote a poem about a special thing in everyone's life... ;)


Everday from seven to three,
I was lookin for someone rite for me.

Durin period one through period eight,
I was lookin for that perfect mate.

But then we met,
And i knew i was set

Because your eyes were like heaven
And your smile i loved 24/7.

You were more beutiful than any flower
Staying in my mind every hour.

I was hoping you felt the same way
Because I couldn't keep my feelings at bay.

But then all my hopes came crashing down
When u said no and turned me down.

Right then and there i quickly learned
how it felt to have you heart burned.

But through all the pain and fear
I though maybe you'd want to hear

That I Still Love You.


Tell me what u think!!!!

[shadow=maroon,up]Here are two of my poems i hope that you like them!  ;D

Frozen in time

No falling leaf, no blowing wind Can move this evil time
As shadows flood the frozen world And fill it all with grime

The ice it comes and kills the plants The trees are turning white
The brightness of the sun now goes The moon comes into sight

The sacred stars are glowing less The moon begins to fade
The darkness of the sky comes forth They bothe go to the shade

But if the sun comes out in time There mabey little hope
As the ice melts and snow fails Then grab onto the hope

All that Remains

The light of the world is dim The sound of life is dead
The scent of the plants are weak All that remains has fled

The plants have started to will The trees are frozen and cold
The leaves are silver and crisp All the remains is old

The birds now don’t sing at all You don’t even see a lark
The clouds are growing thicker All that remains is dark

The moon is growing fainter The stars begin to fade
The suns rays are vailed now All that remains is shade

The candels are all extinguished The creatures here are sad
The tears upon their faces All that remains is sad[/shadow]

Dream

I dreamt dreams that don't come true
Up until I first met you.
Everything is so unreal
This is how I really feel.

I want to be with you all day
I think of you and drift away
To a dreamlike distant fantasy land
And you are with me, holding my hand.

I hold you close and look at you
I do whatever you want me to.
Stroke your face and kiss you so
And hope to God that you won't go.

If you love me, I feel light
As I see you there all through the night.
I dreamt dreams that don't come true
Up until I first met you.
Title: Quel Kaima
Post by: Aurora on March 27, 2004, 03:13:16 AM
I'm sorry if this should not be here, but tonight was a very life changing night for me, and I wanted to post something in..Respect of that. :)

Upon the bright horizon,
I hope you find your way,
In the darkness before you,
To the light I hope you stay,
So long did you spend suffering,
We all could see your pain,
So long did you spend crying,
For your weary pain,
So long did we spend trying,
For your restful gain.

I can't believe it happened,
I can't believe it's so,
That on that fateful day,
We had to let you go.

I hope you find your rainbow,
And watch from above,
I hope you find happiness,
For always will you have our love,
For always will we remember you.

Always a smile upon your face,
Always a beam so shining,
I always remember your laugh,
And your walk filled with grace,
The days that you spent cooking,
The smell of sweet cakes,
I remember all those happy days,
I know I always will,
I hope that you are happy now,
I know that we will meet again,
Sleep well then until.

Though now is filled with sadness,
Fear and shock and worry,
I hope the future heals,
And memories do not fade,
I hope that you can see us now,
I hope you know we're safe,
I can't deny I miss you now,
I wont forget you,
This do I vow,
Quel kaima,
Amin mela lle.

All that fails

All that fails,
Is what I can't do right,
I start falling in the night,
Can't seem to stop this flight,
Just wondering what path I might take,
Through the sky I fall,
Disappointment and all,
I look up at the stars tonight,
For a brief second,
Life was right,
No turning back now,
Cause I can't,
Thrashed below I shall be,
Once I hit the ground,
It's nothing I would have seen,
In my distant past,
But now this is reality,
Theirs only but contrast,
What kind of sensation is this,
None at all,
Time to re-think,
I wake up,
It was only a dream,
But when I step out to the balacony,
It seems as hell is on earth.

I'm entering mine!Is own work:

FOTR Poem

As Frodo walked in, he looked to the floor,
And on it, found a ring.
"Yo!Gandalf, my man, look over here.
What is this golden thing?"
"Like, oh my gosh and all that stuff.
Don't tell me you don't know.
That ring is for you like everything else,
Like, left here by Bilbo."
"Say, what?" muttered Frodo in surprise,
And pulled up his baggy pants.
"I thought this junk was goin' away-"
He was interrupted by chants.
Out of nowhere a Nazgul appeared,
And chased the hobbits towards the ferry.
"I say, who has the ring?" it asked,
"Frodo, Sam, Pippin or Merry?"
"What's with this poem?" rapped Frodo,
As Strider joined in the chase.
"Good question," replied another Nazgul,
Decked out in ribbons and lace.
"Yo, I think that I can end this,
'Cos it's really freakin' me out!"
Pippin and Merry commanded, "Sam, help him, don't be such a lout!"
Sam cried out, "I know what to do!"
And grabbed a Nazgul's sword,
"Could you give that back?" it asked him,
"It comes from Sauron's lair."
Sam didn't pay any attention,
He plunged it into Frodo's shoulder,
Gandalf screamed in alarm,
As Frodo fell on a boulder.
An elf came riding by,
A whirl of think black hair.
Aragorn yelled, "It's Arwen!"
A Nazgul whispered, "she looks like a bear!"
The fuzzy thing took Frodo to Rivendell,
He fainted on the way,
But woke a while later,
Lying on a pile of hay.
"Haharr!" yelled Elrond to Frodo.
"To Mordor with ye!
I want to see that ring destroyed!"
He boomed loudly with glee.
So Frodo left that land,
Eight others with him set out,
But then there was one other,
Gollum followed them about!

Well..I hope that it's alright to enter with slightly "older" poems, I want to enter this one since it actually means a lot to me, despite it being posted elsewhere on the forum.. :-\

Like a Fallen Angel,
I fell into your arms,
Like a Fallen Angel,
I need to be caught,
Like a Fallen Angel,
To be in your arms,
Is what I want.

Dancing through silver skies,
Upon my dark wings,
Drowning in lies,
Whispered echoes inside my head,
Wishing things that should not be said,
I can pretend and smile,
I can lie,
I know I can try,
But whispered echoes inside my head,
Dreaming these dreams as tears are shed.

Things should be better,
I know they should,
And though I pray,
Perhaps they could,
Time does heal,
Or so they say,
And soon will come,
Yet another day.

So dance with my through scarlett skies,
Dance with me and open your eyes,
To this world that plays around us.

Whispered echoes of dreams long hidden,
Whispered memories of the distant past,
Can this future be rebuilt?
Dancing through these midnight skies,
Can you promise me a future without lies?
Dancing on through silver clouds,
Wishing we could cast aside these shourds.

Like a Fallen Angel,
I am waiting,
Dancing through these midnight skies,
I am waiting for your arms,
Longing to be held by you,
Like a Fallen Angel,
I need you.

So will you surrendur to the melody,
Of a million stars dancing at your feet?
Will you surrendur and give your heart,
Or will you yield and finally weep?
Please be honest and of course true,
For this Fallen Angel is beside you,
To wipe your tears,
And wash away your fears,
This Fallen Angel will protect you,
Just hold me close,
As we dance across these clear blue skies,
Whispered echoes of a promised future,
No more lies,
Only smiles.

Like a Fallen Angel,
I'm with you.

Over the fords cows may jump
And though our hills may look like lumps
Thats where i am
And i don't give a damn

Our streets may rise into peaks
And our people may like to listen to beats
Thats where i am

That's bollocks that! Saying that Samwise Gamgee's poem is a story. What a load of bollocks!  >:(

Well here's my poem anyway.

Angel

I'm the little girl
The angel who's life was taken
The little girl, sad and lonely
I'm that little girl

Lost in the wilderness
I spread my wings and I fly
Across distant lands
The cold air hitting my pale face

The angel's tears hitting the ground
Cold and damp on her face
She floats through the clouds
Her eyes wide shut

She's the little girl
The angel who's life was taken
The girl, sad and lonely
I was that little girl

ok...here's ma poem...

  Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
The glade basked in silence at night
The glade full of light at day.
A glade of silent sounds
Of small birds and of small animals
Of rustles as the wind goes by
And of silent changes in the seasons.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
The glade of life
The glade of light
The glade that is always peaceful,
The old oak tree still in bloom
Where birds perch and sing
Of joys past and joys to come.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
The glade where people walk in peace
They talk silent conversations
As they walk their silent walks.
The animals chatter to one another
As they go about picking berries,
Striking wood and all the other things animals do.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
Trees of all shapes, sizes and kinds
Grow and absorb the sun.
The nights are cool and blissful
The stars shine high
And make their constellations
As the sun sings out another day.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
When wintertime comes
When all is white and glistening
And the old oak tree covered in ice
When all is still and cold outside
Look inside and find warmth, happiness and movement all around
Find life still runs deep in the earth and deep in the hearts.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
Look inside yourself
And find the glade
The glade that comes to life when you go forth to it
And the glade that dies
When you desert it
Look inside your heart and find your peaceful silence…

Just the other side of the glass -
      a fingerprint away
      so clear to me
      but so unreachable.

I will call your name -
      hope that you can hear me
      knowing all the while
      that you can't.

Raging against the barrier -
      despite the fact
      that it's obvious
      it's impassable.

And although I cry so hard -
      I want you to know
      that inside, deep down
      I would rather have this pain..

...than never have known you.

Samara - The Ring

i think this is one of my best poems i've ever written. i love it to pieces.

Her long black hair billowed in the wind,
As her mother pushed her down the well,
The air rushing past her ears dinned,
As down the cold dark pit she fell,
Satan looked into her eyes and grinned,
She tried to scream, she tried to yell,
She did not know how she had sinned,
She hit the water, alive? She couldn't tell.

A long pause, then she opened her eyes,
Water greeted her, darkness too,
The lid slid closed, not to her surprise,
She was left alone, sealed in her tomb,
She clawed the walls, knowing it unwise,
She twisted and turned she had no room,
Blackness closed in it swallowed her cries,
Seven days she had, until she met with doom.

Always watching, never alone,
Too much silence, too little care,
In her sleep she writhes and groans,
A lost child, illness unknown,
She never speaks only ever stares,
Looks down listening to the drone,
From speakers on a wall that's bare,
Within the tests, seeds of madness sewn,
She plots and plans within her lair,
After cold torture, lunacy grown,
She kills them all still seated on her chair.

Aw, thanks you guys! Here is another I wrote during History class.

                    Nothing to fear
They want to believe. They want thee to believe, dearest love
-How the world is treacherous
Beneath its blue circle
Far more than is home life
But walking the wide world alone
I saw that the trees never once had disaccord with one another
Nor did a flower shun the others
Nor did the sky frown upon me
Or the wind scream and knock me down
The world and its dangers kept far from me
Me, with my loneliness
For I see clearly I am sundered from all this noise;
Cleaving only to the secret things which know only bliss and peace
But these things, which are always present
Will harm and hurt thee sadly
The rose is quiet
The wind may whisper
And the stream cools
So which will I choose?
It is not the world, which is perilous
But the heart of Man. And so will I come not
to fear the night, nor the day.
For there is naught to fear by the Moon or the Sun.

Im entering this for my friend. Her parents died in a car crash (pretty horrific one too) and she wrote this poem:

On the old heath as i rise,                                                                                
found by spirits across my eyes.                                                                    
My love for them does not stop.                                                                      
If they were alive i would be free.                                                                
Tame me as you did my heart,                                                                            
but let no love enter now,                                                                              
for i am broken as the bones of them.                                                            
Oh mother oh father come find me now,                                                      
take me to a far away place,                                                                        
and let us stay forever in peace.

Woo I think I am the first to post..*Feels honoured* :P

I don't know how long I can hide these scars,
Messages to the dark and tears to the stars,
Only silence knows my cries,
You could never know how you hurt me with those lies,
I can hide my pain and agony,
I could hide again,
But I don't know how long I can prevail,
Against this darkness I feel so frail,
Always I thought I could be strong,
That some how I would struggle along.

But now I see the truth before me,
Now I see how life trully is,
Now I have begun this journey,
I don't know if I'm strong enough,
Strong enough to survive this fight,
This wind is too strong,
This current too tough,
I don't think I'm strong enough.

I tried so hard to fight my way through,
But sooner or later,
I had reached the end I knew,
How can I get through these new struggles which lie,
So far ahead yet no matter how I try,
I can't pick myself up again,
I can crawl along,
But to stand on my feet,
I need to be strong.

You think that I am something,
But can't you see you're wrong,
I see the truth before me,
I see these struggles ahead,
I know that I am not strong,
My heart has so many bruises already,
I know that I can't hold myself steady,
I don't think that I am strong enough,
Strong enough to survive this fight,
Strong enough to reach the end.

Then you came to me,
A sunshine to save me from the darkest night,
A saviour to save me from this fight,
Will you hold me steady on this road?
Will you hold me and not let go?
I feel so fragile and out of control,
Of my life and journey I feel so cold,
I need your arms to hold and guide me,
Because you my sunshine have brought new feelings inside me,
I plea to you,
Don't break my heart,
I beg to you,
Don't break my soul,
Because to you I would give my life and my all,
But to you I plea,
Don't ignore my call.

Can you tell me if I'm strong enough?
Can you see if I am wrong?
Will you help me through this life,
I love you with all my heart and soul,
I want to reach the end with you,
To be with you is my goal,
To be with you is what I want,
To be with you is what I need,
Being with you helped to stop my heart bleed.


Yeah it's a little long.. :-\

Journey on Shrooms

Ont t'train, eyes bleedin
pink flashes over turquoise skys
Snakes for shoe laces
faeries over my head build me a crown
Head bangin eyes bleedin

Plastic bag now a creature
scratching every ugly feature
devil eyes and witches nose
i didnt see as its hand rose
now its crawling  grabbing scratching
and its evil thoughts ar hatching

Head is banging eyes are bleeding
Cows now hang a from the ceiling
sheep are talking frogs are singing
in my head a bell a ringing

wings are appearing
head is searing
legs start running towards the edge

thoughts are leaking
hearts stopped beating
no longer banging in my head

Early morning mist hovers,
As the red sun rises,
Above the grass.

Birds welcome the dawn,
From every branch,
In every tree.

A sense of life's slow awakening,
Stretching, an intake of breath,
Before the day ahead.

For how long?

Houses creep closer on all sides,
An industrial estate threatens trees,
Roads devour the hedges,
Concrete eating the grass.

For how long?
Before all the grass is gone,
Every tree uprooted,
Houses where the birds once sang.

How long before we see what we are doing?
How long before we see how to change?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Miles and miles of moorland,
An endless horizon.
Travelling for days and still,
No sign of man's work.

A fence.

The thin wires cut across the air,
Marking the end of one world -
The open world,
Trapping the land between the rails.

A black line on the horizon,
The end of your horizon.
First signs of man -
A fence,
Then a city.

Before you can blink,
Grasslands turn concrete,
Houses grow faster than any plant,
The fence moves closer.

A world shut off,
Separated,
Segragated.
Between one fence post and the next.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Darkness gathers outside,
As he sits,
Eating and drinking with friends.

A night of celebration,
And yet,
The shadow of knowledge hangs over him,
Knowledge of what is to come.

One here,
One who eats with him,
Will bring them upon him.
He can almost hear them outside.

Barely is the supper over,
Before the darkness closes,
On wings of hatred and fear.
To drag him to his death.

He goes quietly, with dignity,
Knowing what will come must be.
Yet surely dreading it,
How to sleep when pain immeasurable awaits on wakening?

Despite all this,
And what is about to befall,
He gives us his love,
And begs for forgiveness on our behalf,
We who killed him.



sorry its soo long :-X ::)

this one is one of mine i love ;D

Destruction of a power

The skies become black,
The clouds blood red,
The hearts of men shake with fear
As the world prepares.

The Heavens rumble with hidden rage,
The Gods speak in muffled tones,
Women and children hide in their homes,
As Man prepares.

One Army stands,
Upon the hill,
Four crimson flags
Held up by four bleach-white skeletons,
Four thousand strong,
And six thousand more

The other stands proud,
In their low ditches,
Two blue flags,
Held by two pale boys,
Two thousand strong,
And four thousand more.

The silence is pounding,
The wind blows softly,
Hauntingly familiar,
The remembrance of a life,
The destruction of a power.

Four thousand strong
And six thousand more,
Charge with swords in hands,
Hands that bare no flesh.

Two thousand strong
And four thousand more,
Stand with dreaded silence,
Watching the approach.

Then, Four thousand strong
And sixth thousand more,
Stop short, in perfect alignment,
Waiting…

Two thousand strong
And four thousand more,
Charge, clash and fight for their lives.

The battle wore on,
For a day and a night,
Four thousand strong
And six thousand more
Became two thousand strong
And three thousand more

Two thousand strong
And four thousand more
Were victors of the battle.

Now two thousand strong
And three thousand more
Were the devils own.
Defeated by man
The battle of worlds
Becomes the destruction of a Power.


and this is one too:

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
The glade basked in silence at night
The glade full of light at day.
A glade of silent sounds
Of small birds and of small animals
Of rustles as the wind goes by
And of silent changes in the seasons.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
The glade of life
The glade of light
The glade that is always peaceful,
The old oak tree still in bloom
Where birds perch and sing
Of joys past and joys to come.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
The glade where people walk in peace
They talk silent conversations
As they walk their silent walks.
The animals chatter to one another
As they go about picking berries,
Striking wood and all the other things animals do.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
Trees of all shapes, sizes and kinds
Grow and absorb the sun.
The nights are cool and blissful
The stars shine high
And make their constellations
As the sun sings out another day.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
When wintertime comes
When all is white and glistening
And the old oak tree covered in ice
When all is still and cold outside
Look inside and find warmth, happiness and movement all around
Find life still runs deep in the earth and deep in the hearts.

Have you ever seen the everlasting glade?
Look inside yourself
And find the glade
The glade that comes to life when you go forth to it
And the glade that dies
When you desert it
Look inside your heart and find your peaceful silence

i dont no if u wld class this as a poem but it'll do 4 me

The Path of Life

Have you ever had the feeling?
That you don’t know who you are?
The emptiness within
The nothing inside
The numbness of your body
It’s never simple enough
But it’s what you just have to take

Life is just a path
And you are the weary traveller
Walking everyday trying to reach your goals and dreams
Even though you might not know what they are
Or where they are
You just keep going
Yes you may take some wrong turns
But you can always find a way back onto the path you wish to lead
However far it seems it’s always there

When you get to the crossroads
You will then have to make a chose
A chose which only you can make
Which may or may not be life changing
But still you have to make a chose
You may choose to fight or fall
If you chose to fall you might find yourself in a place where you can’t get out
If you fight you will strive to show your strength
Whether you win or lose you can always make your way along the path
No matter what

Your path will cross many different paths
But the most important one is the one that joins to someone else’s
Where you will then be much stronger
With the one you feel most safe with
You will be invincible until you reach the end
Where you will look back and say
“Hey, I did have a good life.”

So go live your dreams
And never look back until you know you have come,
Come to the end of one of the greatest paths you’ll ever walk

When I sleep

In a world,
I visit when I sleep,
I feel you there,
Lying beside me.

And in this world,
I feel so safe in your arms,
And in this world,
I know that I can never be harmed.

In a world,
I visit when I sleep,
I feel you there,
Always beside me.

And though I wake,
Without you there,
I know one day this world I leave,
When the sun does rise,
You can take away this ache,
Of my heart.

Oh in this world,
I visit when I sleep,
I feel you there,
Always beeside me,
Yet why can't I,
Be with you when I wake?
Why must I,
Live with this ache?

Yet in the world,
I visit when I wake,
The sound of you,
Makes me still shake,
Because for you,
I feel a love so true,
And when I sleep,
I do miss you.

But now I see,
That when I sleep,
I feel you here beside me,
And when I wake,
It's now so clear,
You're still with me,
I need not fear,
I love you so and I can't let go,
In this world I visit,
When I sleep,
I see the future,
With you beside me.

here's another one of mine:

Reality

How do you know when you aren’t dreaming?
Can you always tell the difference,
between the dream world and the real world.

In the dream world you control what happens
And nothing ever goes wrong,
Unless you have a nightmare that is.
In your dreams you are always happy and you always get what you want
But it’s only a dream

When you wake up in the morning
You’re always not as happy as you were in your dreams
Because you know you don’t have what you did in your dream
But that doesn’t mean you can’t
Even though you’re in reality

Everyone has their fears
You just have to face them and overcome them,
That’s all
If you try hard enough to get what you want you can get it
But sometimes you will have to see that there is no hope
And get over the situation

Once you have broke free from the prison of your dreams
You can live your life like it was in the dream world but with one slight difference,

Your in the real world.

For some reason it says I started this topic. *dies* I am honoured my poem was kept! *waves flag about*


Here's a new one, it's told from the point of view of Frodo to Sam as he hangs off mount doom in the film:

The fall

I am so weak, but you cant see,
My body, it does tire,
when I go, dont weep for me
I must plunge into the fire.


You always gave me courage,
But I will leave you soon
You don't have to look out for me anymore,
As I soar into this doom.

The ring has been cast away,
our journey has been slow,
let go of my heart and save yourself,
Let me fall to the depths below.

I want this death more than life itself,
Please, wont you understand?
That I can't go on living without my burden,
So unleash my weary hand.

Dont you let go! You now say,
But can't you see I want to?
But i am lifted by your love,
And at the end of all things, there is you.

Here I stand,
On my own,
Where are my friends?
Where's my home?

I thought i could make it alone,
All on my own,
I was wrong.
I was wrong.

Now that your here,
I can wipe away all my tears,
And even if one is lost,
We'll still hold strong.

Post by: Aurora on May 06, 2004, 06:01:46 PM
Before people read this, no I'm not depressed or sad or in any type of dark mood at all, it's simply a poem about Eowyn's own struggles etc. Which will hopefully be clear to anyone who bothers to read it. :P

A Darkness Inescapable

In a world filled with tears,
A winter,
Has fallen upon this land,
I can't see these tears that I weep,
I'm just too far from home,
Still standing before you,
Avoiding your eyes and gaze,
I know these words that you will speak,
I know what thoughts you feel,
Soon will begin the endless cold,
A darkness inescapable soon will fall.

Can our strength save what we have made,
Can this world be again found before the winter falls?

In a world filled with fears,
A darkness,
Has fallen upon us all,
I can no longer tread where I fear to go,
I can no longer see friend from foe,
Guide me through this shadow of doubt,
A darkness inescapable is falling now.

Be still my hand and do not shake,
Silent prayers to those above,
To give me the strength to fight for those I love,
Wishing and hoping for just one chance,
To fight for freedom and your beloved glance,
Torn between this lust for glory,
And your heart I long to end this story,
Yet now I see that you and I could not be,
You love another and that I now see.

In a world filled with endless struggle,
A winter it seems is falling before us,
The enemy is rising like a dark storm,
And soon this darkness inescapable will fall,
And so I pray to those who see,
Give me the stength to truly be,
Able to fight and give all that I can,
Whispers to those above,
Give me the strength to fight for those I love.

tis very good TL, gets the point accross perfectly.

Time's Up on Me.

I won't just try,
Nor sit here and cry,
I won't let my friends just die,
I will not try.

When my world collapsed around me,
I still held strong.
When all my friends surround me
I know my time's almost gone.

Well let that day come,
When all I've said and done,
Won't matter anymore.
'Cause someone's just shut my door.

Time's up on me,
My train's just about to go.
Don't say it ain't so.
Don't say I can't go.

I saved you,
And sacrificed me.
This is your time now,
It aint my place for me to intrude.

Just go out and have fun.
Do what you can,
'Cause time's up on me,
And did what i can.

You are my life,
My joy,
My pain,
I ain't gonna forget you.

I make it look as if I've moved on.
That's a lie,
When i'm not with you, it feels as if I'm going to die.
To me you'll never be gone.

The sun goes down,
I start the long road home,
Alone,
It's like only half of me's here.

Your my only love girl,
You make my head swirl,
Some people say if you've found something don't let it go.
Gladly.

You get all these annoying questions,
Confusing affections,
Just go with your heart girl,
Whatever you say I'll ride it.

As you probably all know by now, I am obsessed with Lor'ie`a; the character in my book "Under the falling leaves"....but heres a little poem i wrote about her.
It's about her when she and leggi are separated and well, uh read the end of my story at least so yall know what im talking about.  :P


                     Lor'ie`a
 

      In the forest all golden with leaves, dwells a maiden pure and fair. She watches and waits for her lover's return, forsaken is she among friends. A heavy burden lies on her chest, the guilt she feels towards her friend. "Alas!", she cries, blue eyes they are swimming, from the tears no longer held back. "Rumil is dead!" her heart barely beats, knowing the cause of his end. Broken was his heart and very ill he became, unil he passed away from this earth. She knew in her soul what a cruel wretch that she was, and so depart from all others she must. Kill herself, she knew she could not, for the grief of her love would overcome him. Bowing her head, she said with a moan, "I am lost in this world, with no one to lead me home."





     It's very short i know :-\ but hey.... ;)

And i kinda just made it up on de spot lol.

A butterfly's soul[/b]
Together we can fly away
Upon those golden wings
Our hearts and bodies forever stay
In the forest of wind that sings
The gentle warmth of a ray of sun
As it whisps through the canopy of trees
The flying birds, the deer that run
The butterflies, and the bees
All of which I give to you
Though down the hill emotions can roll
I give you my heart and all I can do
And fly it on a butterfly's soul.

Summer sun bakes the cracked concrete,
Of the pavement,
The black stripe of road,
Shimmers in the heat.

The guitar strums,
It's Spanish notes accompanying,
The dawdling mothers and prams,
The children licking ice creams.

The clack of the castanet,
Beats with the bounce of a basket ball,
As boys run and jump on the courts,
Oblivious to the humid heat.

Outside the window,
Girls walk past,
Chattering and laughing,
High heels clicking.

Life moves,
The only sound the careful notes,
Of your fingers on the strings,
Acommpanying the life you see,
That remains so remote.

This is my Life

Rock and heart and hand and bone
Swinging freely through the stone
I see the light, it's already dead
It lies upon the riverbed

A whip of a sword
A slash of a knife
An engravement of fire
This is my Life

This blade is a gift
It feels very light and swift
It burns everything in sight
And never looses a single fight

A whip of a sword
A slash of a knife
An engravement of fire
This is my life

I can't believe our gain
Look those who we have slain
But my conscience is ripping me apart
Telling me I have no heart

A whip of a sword
A slash of a knife
An engravement of fire
This is my life

You see those bodies up ahead?
All limp and dead
We did that with our silver knives
And we left none alive

A whip of a sword
A slash of a knife
An engravement of fire
This is my life

Without You
You aren’t the same person I recognised from before
You gave me the reason that didn’t make me useless
Now that you are gone
You thought I would never be needed anymore

You gave me life
You helped me to love again
You gave me hope
You saved me from the blade of a knife
Well that’s what you think

When you left
You thought I could never live without you
And I would go back to the way I was before
But you were wrong
I can’t believe I stuck with you for so long
All you did was make me stronger
Stronger than when I was with you

You see
You didn’t change me
You just hurt me like everyone else
When you left you thought I couldn’t live another day
But here I am
Standing on my own two feet
So goodbye to my so called hero
Good riddance to you
And I never want to see you again
I can deal with my own problems
Without you!!

What have I done to disserve your hate?
Did I create it?
You want me to leave your sight
I disappear into the night

I cry
Because I know this is the last good bye
My heart has been teared apart
Some one would call it art

I thought I couldnt live without you
And I thought you knew
I loved you so much
Why did you play with my trust?

I see you with this pretty girl
So all the time it was her
I was just the second choose in you eyes
So all your words were just empty lies

I hate you for hurting me
Why couldnt I see
What you were doing to me
Hurting, using, fooling me

I hate you more then everything now
Whats with you?! You thoughtless cow!
Im going to put you into the final rest
This is not some fake test

Im going to teach you not to mess with me
You dont know how mean I can be
I will tear you apart
So everyone can see your empty heart

These poems are all really really good! ;D

Beaten
The smooth cobbles slip beneath your feet,
The rough wall grazes your hand,
Your shoulder,
As they push you into the room.

Dark stains on the floor,
Set your heart racing,
The rank smell of old blood,
Ingrained in the air.

Your eyes cannot penetrate the blackness,
Your ears strain for the smallest sound,
Every breath taste the air,
Waiting for the attack.

Waiting,
You begin to shake,
Palms become slick with sweat,
Lights dance before your eyes.

You cower,
Fear of attack mcuh more unmanning,
Than any thump or kick.
Psychologically beaten, you cower.

Theres a new wind in town like I've never known
I'm breathin deeper than i've ever done
And it sure feels good to finally feel the way i do
I wanna love somebody
love somebody like you

I'm letting go for all my lonley yesterdays
I've forgiven myself for the mistakes i've made
Now theres just one thing, the only thing i wanna do
I wanna love somebody
love somebody like you

Yeah i wanna feel the sunshine
Shining down on me and you
When you put your arms around me
You let me know theres nothing in the world
I can't do

I used to run in circles goin nowhere fast
I'd take one step foward, end up two steps back
I couldn't walk a straight line even if i wanted to
i wanna love somebody
love somebody like you

Sometimes it's hard for me to understand
But your teachin a better man
i don't want to take this life for granted like
I used to do
I wanna love somebody
love somebody like you

They are not living.
Nor undead.
They seek their masters precious.
And will not rest until the one who carries it, is dead.
The Nazgul, or Ringwraith as they are known.
Are the history's living.
But are the present's undead.
The Nazgul seek the One Ring.
And will kill the one who bares it.
They do not have feeling or a sense of humain touch.

Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with weary feet,
Until it joins some larger way,
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

If Only.

If only you knew how I felt.
If only I could be there with you.
And let the broken hearts be delt.
I can't say how it is.
Because it would hurt.
If only you knew.
How it is.
But you won't.
Can't.
Shan't.
If only you knew..

For my friends who don't really get me.

And Alex.

If Only part 2

If only you all could see
inside of my head
and see the working
of the clock
that ticks,
tick tock.
Or the rythem of my heart
that goes dum dum
like the beats of a drum..
Don't you see..
Pollz is a working machine..
Like clockwork.. or a musical
theme..

Thanks Waelith - I was inspired by the Asasain (sp?) Trilogy by Robin Hobb - how Fitz is paralysed by the fear of a repeated attack on him.

I've not been on for a while so there are a few here...

I have to be with people
Near them,
Busy,
I can't afford to be alone,
To let the happy lie drop.

I'm afraid,
And yet,
Afraid to be afraid.
As though to admit my fear is to admit defeat.

And I will never do that.
Just knowing you want to keep fighting,
Keeps me going.

I'll not give up,
Give me the strength to be strong for you,
And we'll make it,
Together.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Before I go to sleep I hear the rain on my tent,
Pitter-pattering onto the shiny domed walls.
Inside cocooned in my sleeping bag,
Reading a tatty paper back by the warm glow of the torch,
It's almost like being back in the womb,
Cut off from all outside.

I wake early,
At first light,
And step out into an unfinished world.
Dull green grass is wet between my toes,
Water still beading on my tent from the rain.
The sky is colourless,
A huge space,
Filled for now with damp writhing fog,
Hiding the new-born creations from my too-early eyes.

A mere half hour later,
The time for a hot shower and scrub up,
When I emerge once more,
The fogs have peeled back,
Letting the new sun - still testing his strength -
Shine down on emerald grass,
Make the dew and rain glitter like diamonds.
Trees rustke their leaves in greeting,
Birds sing their triumphant return,
Rejoicing,
That day has followed night once again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I know I should have been working,
Exams are important,
You told me,
As we agreed very maturely,
To not meet until they were over.

I know I agreed,
But today something happened inside me.
I couldn't concentrate on my notes,
The exam of the morning forgotten already.

I just wanted to see you,
Hear your voice on the phone.
I just wanted to run up to you,
Give you a great big kiss,
Feel your arms strong around me.

But as I agreed,
I'll sit here and wait,
Thinking of you,
Wishing I was with you.
Until tomorrow my love,
Until tomorrow.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Moonlight silvers pale smooth skin,
Dappled through the oak boughs.
Dark grasses cushion them,
Clover sends sweet scents into the air.

Here, on top of the world,
The lights of town before them,
The soft darkness of the fields behind,
Two bodies entwine.

They dance the oldest dance,
Under the moon's pearly gaze,
Lying on the grasses of Mother Earth,
Beneath the wise old spreading oak.

Their dance is to the ancient rhythms,
The beating heart of the Earth,
Pulses through them,
As they celebrate their part in creation.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sea and sky stretch to meet horizon,
And tough,
Merging seamlessly into a soft blur.
Clouds gather and frown down upon the cliff,
An iron lid that traps nothing.

Up here the senses spread and flow away,
Cares and worries,
Every thought is swept from you,
By the same wind that staels your breath,
And reddens your cheeks.
Up here there is space to simply be,
In peace and at one with yourself.
Free.

That was really good Is' ;)

So close are your eyes
So depriven

Lonesome fears
Subbornly hidden

I stare into sundering pools
And Saline drops

These luminous cheeks
That clear stones dot

Starlight floods
Stared back into oceans
Siliently stilling
The gentle comotion

if only given the chance,
it could win the fight,

Thanks Lilla! Yours was good too - as was yours destiny! ;D

I went to the Festival at the Edge last weekend - its a storytelling festival not music - although there was some... anyway - came back with this...

Flickering yellow firelight,
Picks out the circle of faces,
Flushed by the heat.
Their eyes gaze into the flames,
But their minds soar up,
Up, far up on a single spark,
To where the ice-fire stars keep their vigil.

Long ages they keep watch,
From the arching heavens,
Whilst far below,
Around pools of life and warmth,
Mortals gather,
And send up their bright passions to the cold night sky.

Mugs of steaming drink are passed round,
Laughter,
Music,
Keeps the chill at bay.
The plaintive lament of pipes,
A furious skirl on the fiddle,
Accompany wild myths and legends,
Food for dreams.

Firelight in the hollow flickers,
Seducing sleepy children to close their eyes,
Surrender to the whim of imagination,
Whilst adults talk on,
Laughing and singing,
Their merriment soaring to warm the stars.

whats the difference?

why do we all want perfection?
we all want that feeling of admiration,
we all want that kind of love,
followed by the perfect wedding with white doves.
we want to be belonged to,
that way of life we want to do,
desire builds up inside,
something we somethimes can't hide.
hope takes over our beating hearts,
we feel lust, our eyes dart,
we want to show grace and charm,
that sence of balanced calm.
but in the end the pressure takes me,
i've tried to be all i can be,
i fell and i kept falling,
and you just kept calling.
you crushed me in my downward spiral,
i'm a broken shell, not the same gal,
if you had the chance to do it all again,
would you be different than the other men.

Okay here is one of my very short poems, namely as I couldn't think of a second verse.
Swords flash out of there sheaths,
Blades gleam in the light,
The foe draws nigh,
Its time to fight,
not knowing who will live and die.

The sun is warm
the sky unusually clear
and your skin
soft, warm to my touch,

Like a cold pearl drowning, I am lost

as I tuck my arm through yours.
I murmur something,
you smile, laugh a little,
as though I am highly amusing,

falling through the waves of your indifference;

the smile does not reach your eyes.
I do not mind.
It is enough to be with you,
to feel you, smell you,

if I were to melt suddenly like smoke from your cigarette

though it's clear that I am unrequited,
that I am alone.
The rockpools reflect the sunshine,
the glitter sparkling off the water's surface

Would you notice?

like so many diamonds,
concealing a deep well of emotion -
surprising indeed
for such superficial appearances.
I will laugh, yes, and return with you,
back to the house of my torment.

Would you care?

Where is the voice that taught me
whatever was right or wrong
A voice so loving and tender
A voice so gentle and strong

Where are the arms that held me
through all the sleepless nights
the arms so strong and loving
the arms that held me tight

Where is the sweet laughter of
the man i loved so dear
The man i called my daddy
the man no longer here

Where ever the man i'll here his voice
and see his smiling face
for though he's died in my heart
he'll always have his place

Meditation

Breathe, in and out,
Waves shush, back and forth,
A bird flaps, up and down.
Night follows day, turn and turn about.

Align yourself to these rythms,
Deep within life.
Feel your heart beat,
In tune with the song.

The world recedes,
You are left,
Cradled by Mother Earth,
Nurtured by the life force of Nature.

You are stripped,
Of thought and word,
Of all meaning,
You just are.

Now at last,
Your soul can fly.
Free of this earthly body,
That binds it in this world.

Wonders you perceive,
On this journey of light,
Along light,
Among the stars.

Slowly, the rhythms recede,
Leaving you still as one with life,
But separated from the spirit by it -
Adrift in the great web of Time.
Held within the bounds of reality once more.

"Goodbye"

This won't take long to say,
neither will it take long to stay,
all I wanted to say was goodbye,
when the moonlight hits the window,
just say to yourself "goodbye".

This was to come,
It's now gone,
This is the last goodbye i'll ever say to you,
cause your the girl that turned me to stone,
like so many people said in there songs,
I say one in mine.

Your just a lost cause that I waited on,
You left undeserving me,
Just to let you know,
I won't be coming back to you,
Soon in four years,
I'm sorry this unfortunate story happend,
It's just a lost cause for everyone.

Worthless child!

Trapped in this cage,
Trapped in this head,
Feeling no life,
As if i was dead,
Striving for freedom,
Praying for air,
Not to feel empty,
And not to feel bare,
Holding tears back,
No escaping these eyes,
My soul is released,
And my heart dies,
I look back on life,
And i see your face,
I pity you greatly,
A sorrowful case,
I wave goodbye,
From my new hell,
But back in your world,
You still dwell.

This one is called Drawing

I’m gonna draw a picture,
A picture with a twist.
I’ll draw it with a razor blade;
I’ll draw it on my wrist.
And if I draw it properly,
 A fountain will appear,
And with this flowing fountain all my pain will disappear.

Stick needles in my viens
To drip away the pain
Darkened sky and bloody hues
of indifference. Disdain.
Rub broken glass into my skin
To tear away the sin
I know its wrong, but feels so good
So pierce me once again.
Stain my arm with blood
Hide the scars with mud
Desecration, deadened hearts
and angels fly above.
Beat my fists against the wall
Prepare myself for the next fall
Razorblades and rusty nails
Won't give nothing, they'll take it all.

The rain again
Soothing
The sky it crys
Dying
The moon is dead
Forgotten
And I'm alone
Rotting

I've inscribed your name
Into my skin
Heartache is
The most deadly sin
Kiling me softly
With this desire
I want to be with you
Please take me higher

Sorrow and Sadness
The lies you told me
The promises you made
I gave you my heart
And you broke it in two

I don't know why I trusted
Such a decieving person
I walked away from Heaven
Just to be with you

Now I am far away from home
The gates have closed
Only someone as evil and hurtful could destroy me
Like this

Now I am torn in two

A barbed wire crown, graces his head
Androgynous looks, eyes laced with red
Shadow filled face, anorexia's figure
Heart stained with drugs and a cold empty fear.
Needles for love and needles for hate
His shattered glass heart bursts into flames
Needles to live and needles to die
He just needs to feel his life slipping by.
He is so numb, he doesn't care
Empty and hollow, stripped and bare
A shell of feelings, memories lost
Nothing matters, nothing hurts.
He'll smash a bottle and drag it along
Just to see the blood he thought was gone
Another night out, alone, drunk too much
Collapse on the ground, feel its touch.
An overdose won't help him escape
But bleeding to death might make him feel safe
He'd give you it all, his empire of dirt
In return for your world he'd give you his hurt.

~

Here I am tied and bound with something pulling me to the ground
I see you speak but hear no sound
Will my soul ever be found.
Who am I supposed to feel sorry for
An empty page
Just a promiscuous female
I try and try to open the door as I lie alone on the dirty floor.
I found inside that I don't care
Ther is nothing there
This is me, a vacant stare
there is nothing to tear.
I sit in silence late at night and try to find my soul, my sight
I always think this isn't right
I don't feel enough to even fight.
I see no colours, only grey
I want you all to go away
I want to make you all pay
Hurt myslef to make you stay.
I found inside that you don't care
There is nothing there
This is me, a vacant stare
There is nothing to tear.
I am just a single stain
All alone
Waiting for rain
No I never knew your name
I didn't care
I just wanted the pain.

Here I am
Standing alone
With two words
I'm on my own
God, I'm so sorry
I'm hurting inside
You have to know I never meant it
I never lied

Why do I always hurt those around me?
Why must I break them in two?
Why can't I be the one who's there?
The one who always comes through?

Silken cords wrap around my throat
I don't trust myself to speak
I hate myself more than you know
I will my blood to seep
Through my clothes and to the floor
Praying that one day I will be no more

------------------

Oh dad, Why me?
Why do you keep hurting me?
My souls already torn
I'm begging you not to break me

Because I hurt I hate
And its you who has done it
I sit now and I wait
For life to throw me down and kick me

I've been through so much
You were never there
I've struggled so hard
You just don't care
Your daughter is dead
A stranger in her place
The skin im covered in
Is just a waste

I'll go visit my grave
Maybe thats where I'll find myself
Dead and cold in the ground
Yet loved by you
This is the girl you could never hurt
I'm just the other half of her
The side you never wanted
You want her here and me there

Dad, where are you?

-------------

My forever

I sat down and I cried today
For all the mistakes i've made
For all the good I turned away
And all the evil I forgave

I have nothing to live for
Everything to die for
I'm drowning in my own misery
My own forever
The song ringing in my heart
Is one of pain
Its tearing me apart

Please, throw me a line
Help me, please, I beg you
I cant make it
I cant get through

My forever is but a day
Struggling to get through
I frighten myself away
Scared of me, Scared of you

Sweet death, you call me in
Bliss in ignorance, shall I begin
Forgetting all that has ever been shown
And make a world all on my own

Here is my latest song, I think it's one of my better ones, though I haven't got a tune for it yet...

You

My only wish
Is for you to diminish
Into nothingness
Into loneliness

My heart bleeds for you
Cut's deep for you
Leaves scars just for you
This pain is too much to bare
Knowing when I wake you'll never be there

Those good times we had
But now we're just sad
In our stream of fake love
In our over flowing river of pain

My heart bleeds for you
Cut's deep for you
Leaves scars just for you
This pain is too much to bare
Knowing when I wake you'll never be there

My only dream
Is to turn back time
But nothing is what it seems
Illusions clouding the mind
Shifting your thoughts
In the trees they bind

My heart bleeds for you
Cut's deep for you
Leaves scars just for you
This pain is too much to bare
Knowing when I wake you'll never be there

Broken hearts
Lost thoughts
In this ocean of madness
Escaping away from all this sadness
Out of character
Out of place
Casting my eyes on that devilish face

My heart bleeds for you
Cut's deep for you
Leaves scars just for you
This pain is too much to bare
Knowing when I wake you'll never be there

My heart bleeds for you
Cut's deep for you
Leaves scars just for you
This pain is too much to bare
Knowing when I wake you'll never be there

My only wish
Is for you to diminish
Cos it's you
Only you
Who made my heart bleed
Cut down deep
For you
For you
For you

Death & Destruction

All this time I had you fooled.
  My tricks can be decieving.
You all tought: She's a normal girl,
  but I know where it's leading.
This normal girl will turn out evil
  and Death shall rule the world.

My only fear. One day will come
  and the Darkness that's inside
me shall take it's toll.
  My fear is then my friends will see ..
that evil power sleeping in me.

  Now I bleed from wounds
that can't be seen.
  Now I told someone the truth.
And as I said and now I know
  That girl knows my Evil.
But I'm still alone, waiting for a rescue.
  That final blow must kill me.

Pain is only an illusion,
  An escape for those who are weak.
The strong with no fears, no tears
  Will kill these puny humans.
Not a normal Soul will live.
  Death is now our ruler on our path
to destruction.

  My eyes turn red, my smile
soon fades. And all that's
  happy still inside me is pushed
away. I can't explain, I can't
  go back, 'coz the Evil won't be
leaving. I'll stand strong and I'll
  survive until I've finishd my task.
Then only Death is a solution,
  then I'm free, Then I will go.

All Good is gone,
    All hope is drained.
All time shall pass away.
    The curse will rise,
The girl will kill.
    All Love shall end out bleeding.
That will happen with this Evil,
    Sorrow can't be leaving

THE LAST HOUR

The clock tower strikes eleven o’clock.
Tonight I dread the sound.
Fear coils around me, squeezing like a python.
I’ve one hour left to live.

The dreaded demon of fear grips me tighter.
‘He will come to kill me,’ I say,
‘Like the Satan he is, he will kill me and take me away.’
The last toll of the clock tower fades into the night.

It’s dark in the bedroom, too dark for my taste.
I get up and light candles with a paranoid haste.
But a breath of wind from the open window,
Travels in and douses the flames.
Stumbling back into bed in the pitch dark, I am not alone.

He is on the threshold, watching me,
An evil smile playing on his lips.
Playing with his black dagger, it matches his black heart.
He watches me fear my last moments.
Just standing, just smiling, five minutes left.

The clock tower tolls midnight, he glides to my bedside.
Holding it high, the dagger shines in the moonlight.
I suddenly sit straight with a yelp, it was just a dream.
Something thuds to the ground, I look to the bedside.
A shining black dagger lies on the floor,
In a pool of black blood.
The twelfth toll of the clock tower fades into the dark night.

It's supposed to be a poem in the style of Edgar Allan Poe, but I have my doubts.

Wow Mortange, I love your poems. They're amazing and very deep.

Salvation
Darkness swallows my soul
Tonight I'll dig myself another hole

Cry alone, I've gone away
I don't want to stay
So show me the way
The way to salvation

Please don't forget me
One of these days you'll see
I tried to be all I could be

Please don't follow me tonight
You can't make anything right
I don't want another fight
So just sit tight
I can't swear I'll be alright

Darkness swallows my soul
Tonight I'll dig myself another hole

Cry alone, I've gone away
I don't want to stay
So show me the way
The way to salvation

What are these voices?
What is this noise?
I can hear what they say
They don't want me to stay
What can I say?

Darkness swallows my soul
Tonight I'll dig myself another hole

So cry, cry alone
I've already gone
Can't make me stay
So just show me the way (just show me the way)
The way to salvation

Sorrow and Sadness - Pt. 2
You broke my heart before
By somehow cheating on ME
But now life has gone on
I have my friends and my faith
And NOTHING will bring me down

I can't believe I suffered with a coward
Who was my friend before
But he went and cheated
On another good friend of mine
And another good friend of mine

I hope you both rot in hell
And I hope my two friends
Get revenge on you along with me

*sigh* Okay, I posted my poem(s) ages ago, but of course they've been dead and gone for a while now. So here are some of the older ones (any poem requests, name a *legitimate topic and I'll try and conjur something up for you).
The Lord's Tears[/u]
Revenge has no meaning
In this cruel world of hate
For Hell is calling out to us
And Heaven's locked its gates
For is this world so cruel
That a child must live in fear
Or is this the work of Satan
Baying for us to come near
To eat the fruit of hatred
Or drink from the cup of neglect
Or stay in a house of horrors
Where no sleep can be met
For the Lord must cry a thousand tears
To help us throught the night
To help us get a minute's sleep
And help us not to fight

..by the way, it's been published, so please, if you wish to use it, don't forget the copyright ©Verity Pasione 2000

Simple Dreams[/u]
My Dreams are simple and yet hard
I am expected to be what I am not
My life is not worth living
I am not worth being
Woe unto the depth of my dark soul
No good will come to and from me
Being what I cannot be
For my world is dark
My life is done
I see that finally
I have won!


Longing For You[/u]
Wherever I am, you're always there
You stand beside me everywhere
If I try to reach out you turn away
You mock my being every day
I lust for you, my nemesis
And you know it, but you resist
I feel the passion burning me
I feel what others cannot see
But you really aren't here at all
My heart, my soul, for you they call
I wept the day your soul departed
From this world a new life you started
So now I see your ghostly form
An angel perhaps, I wonder and still mourn
But all I can do is wait til I die
And until then, I will surely cry.


Sick and Tired[/u]
I'm sick and tired of being confused
Of always being so dumb
I'm sick of people being amused
At the way I suck my thumb
I'm sick and tired of being stressed
Of needing to think of you
I'm sick and tired of nothing less
Than everything you do
I'm sick and tired of stupid songs
Of people judging me
I'm sick and tired of 'right' and 'wrong'
How stupid can you be?
I'm sick and tired of criticism
They're usually the hypocrites
I'm sick and tired of vandalism
Only because the word fits
I'm sick and tired of all you people
Telling me what to do
I'm sick and tired of this poem, it's feeble
So um.. yeah, f**k you!
*cough* lol

Loving the end of your last poem Unebriwen... ;) Everyone's poems are pretty amazing.



Glued to the floor like a nightmare awake
There's nothing more, just glued to the floor
They can give what they take cause they're blind anyway
Apathy's hate, begging for more
From way down here you can see all the dirt
You can see what is lost and never can be
Melody's twisting as they look away
Emptied of smiles just sorrow to see
Symphonies are broken, they fit so pefectly
Yet all alone they seem so emtpy
I'm glued to the floor but I don't care
And as the cold creeps the song dissappears
Sighs on the wind just seconds too late
He's glued to the floor, lets forsake, lets forsake
He can go insane and its ok, cause nobody sees
When he's stuck here like me
No one wants to know that we're glued to the floor
Broken and scared, no one cares
Just for a second I couldnt see and I liked it
There in the darkness I didnt have to breath

aww thanks guys, lol (wow, Mort, are you sure you're not a darky in disguise? :o *hugs*)

lol, here are a few poems I have done in the last um.. week, lol, from previous to most recent at the end.. *cough* some of them are in jest, of course ;) lol:

Draco Malfoy (lol)
Your eyes, they pierce into my heart
Your smirk, it drives me insane
Your laugh, it mocks my soul apart
Your humor is rather inane

If words could express they way I feel
When I venture into your thoughts
I just wish I could make a little more real
But it’s a battle I’ve not yet fought

Your blonde hair, ever smooth in place
Your robes cling to your frame
Your pale white skin on your shining face
Your arrogance is not to blame

You despise the mudbloods and gryffindor
I feel the same way, too
They’re useless and little more
What they do, we can do

So Draco, in Slytherin, you must be
For there’s no other place you’d fit in
If the Sorting Hat put you in Hufflepuff
That would be a mortal sin!

Slytherin, embrace the snake within
And rise to Lord Voldemort’s aid
When Dumbledore’s gone to the looney bin
The deatheaters will have it made.


Eaten[/u] *cough*
Your tongue, it smells the air
With eyes as keen as eagles
You lead me to your lair
My breath is weak and feeble
Venom pumps through my veins
I'm lured by your eyes
You make me go insane
The warmth is a surprise

My legs fall weak beside me
My lips, they cannot scream
As your mouth, it opens wide
Then darkness consumes the scene
My bones, they crush a thousand times
The warmth is turning cold
My life it flashes before my eyes
Though now it's spent, it's sold.

if you didn't notice, I was um.. a creature being eaten by a snake, lmao!

Bondages of the Heart[/u]
It was never meant to be
This thing with you and I
Don't you know I must be free?
These petty rules can't apply
Your presence chokes me to death
Like a chicken in a snake's coils
Your leaving me with no breath
Your whine, it makes my blood boil

I hate the way you look at me
The way you bare your soul
Why, my friend, can you not see?
I cannot make you whole!
Just back away and don't come near
I'll spit and curse and smite
Please leave me alone, my friend so dear
Or I'll do something I just might
Regret for all eternity
My friend can you not see?
I can't love you any longer, I'm free!
So back away from me!


Love[/u]
So sickly sweet, yet not edible
It can choke you up inside
It can make you feel incredible
It can make you want to hide
You'd die for love or better yet
You could live for love and breathe
A lover's kiss you will never forget
That moment you won't want to leave

Love can be gentle, love can be cruel
It depends on who, how and why
Love is a thing for one I'd call a fool
Love breaks people's hearts and they die
Forever people have killed for this thing
And yet the people they've killed love, too
Love is an emotion much less than a fling
Love is what people must do.


Mudblood
You filthy little Mudblood!
You think you're really great?
I can think of many things
'bout you there is to hate.
You have muggles for parents
Filthy, disgusting and inane
Your fashion sense I'll never get
You lack a pureblood's reign
Remeber your superiors
We're above you, no less
As you know, you're inferior
And I'm not in jest

The Malfoys are purebloods
There's nothing more to say
Other than Slytherin
Shall forever rule the day!


Polly[/u]
I could only tell you
The secrets of my life
There’s nothing left to do
But wade in all my strife
My friend, you were the best
Of all the ones I’ve had
More loyal than the rest
You cheered me when I was sad
The day you died, I could not bear
The burden of this loss
For, Polly, your death, it wasn’t fare
You now lay beneath a cross

Though people may think this inane
But my best friend you’ll always be
Even if you were a four-legged canine
You helped me to be free
The times we sat in the river
And watched the fish swim by
The times when I would shiver
You’d help me when I cry

A year later, I got another dog
Lilly was her name
She never really replaced you, Polly
But I loved her all the same
I’ll always remember the feel of your coat
It won ‘Shiniest’ in a contest or two
And, my old dog, I’ll continue to gloat
That your complaints were sensibly few

People will now think me crazy for this
But such is this life, I have guessed
For everyone knows that ignorance is bliss
Though personally, I think arrogance best


Being True to Yourself[/u]
Being true to yourself
Is not putting yourself down
it's not hating yourself coz of
what you look like.
It's not hating your skin color, race, or ethnic
group.

Being true to yourself
is looking into the depths of your
soul

actually realizing and seeing
the beautiful person
that always lay beneath.


My Father[/u]
The only person in the world, in the
world that is able to make my
soul cry. The only person that can make
me truely depressed. But my 'father' is
my life, my one true friend, love, and
teacher. Without him I wouldn't be
the person I am today. Words cannot
express my love for my father.
Not even words can explain my gratitude
what I feel for him cannot be expressed
in any other language, that is how special
my love for my father is.


Forever and Always[/u]
Can you see the stars in the skies?
You you see the tears in my eyes?
The Universe is just within reach
My little world will soon be breached
I try to comfort the firey storm
I try to ignore your constant scorn
The way you laugh and put me down
I get back up, trying not to frown
The consant agony of what can't be
The constant reminder that you won't see
Forever and always I'll love you dearly
Forever and always you'll hurt me severely
Together our worlds must never be
Forever and always, you'll be without me.


Mafia[/u]
Gouge out your eyes
Rip out your spleen
An unpleasant surprise
That you ever have seen
Rip out your toe-nails
One by one
If all else fails
My work isn’t done
Make you drink your fluids
Watch you squirm and shriek
The Boss told me to get rid
Of you because you tend to speak
You informed the cops
Of our actions and relations
Now you must be stopped
But first, interrogation
You mess with the Mafia
You mess with the Boss
You get run over by a car
And your family’s at a loss
Tortured then shot
That’s the only way
Buried in the desert
So the birds eat your decay.


Bad Habits[/u]
Habits can be disgusting
Whether you like it or not
Examples are farting and belching
Or wiping away all the snot
Everyone has their own habit
Whether they know, is another matter
Though some of us make it a habit
To keep our room messy and clattered

Drinking is a habit in itself
Whether alcohol, coke or coffee
Anger or slyness with stealth
Can also be a habit, you see
So if you find your habit bad
Or even the slightest bit annoying
Remember you're human, don't be sad
It's a part of your nature, start enjoying!

lmao! Okay, some of them were for pure fun :P [/color]

That Mafia poems pretty good...lol...and it is amazingly amusing! :P

Darky in disguise...*cough*is a secret!*cough*  ;)


You're there
Fragile as night
A warm hand in the dark room with no light
Soft smell of vodka
Faint on your lips
Your head next to mine your hand, slips
Background music
Filtering through
Down on the floor we turn blue

            No One Likes Me!

No one likes me,
For they say i'm mean,
Turn them to stone,
With one sharp gleam.

No one likes me,
For they say i'm hard,
No one can read me,
At the flip of a card.

No one likes me,
For i shire away,
Hidden away,
From the break of day.


No one likes me!

OoO! I like that one! Wait, r we allowed to post comments??  :8o

The Lonely Girl

Alone she sits, alone she stands.
Alone in the corner of the room.
By so many people, she goes unnoticed.
Her only friend is her shadow,
Which she casts upon the walls.

Alone she sits, alone she stands,
No one to stand beside her.
No one to smile, or even glance
At the lonely girl
In the ratty, torn clothes.

Then one day, she just wasn't there.
That wisp of a spirit was gone.
And finally everyone noticed her,
Or at least her missing presence.

No more she sits, no more she stands,
Alone in the corner of the room.
Her voice, feelings, hopes and dreams, had gone unnoticed for too long.
Her friendless life, and life at home,
Had taken her physical life away.

All she needed was a friend and family.


Say A Prayer

Say a prayer for those with cancer.
Say a prayer for their family and friends.
Pray that they'll overcome,
And have a happy end.

Say a prayer for those in battle.
Say a prayer for their family and friends.
Pray that they'll come back home,
And never have to go back again.

Say a prayer for the friends and relations
Of a loved one who is deceased.
Pray that they'll always remember,
But their grief never be increased.

Now say a aprayer for yourself
And a prayer for your family and friends.
Pray that you can talk to someone new,
And perhaps make a new friend.

(That one, I entered in a contest, and it's going to be published in the book because it's a semi-finalist. I'll know by the 15th if I won anything or not.)

Good luck with the contest, is cool that you're getting your poetry in a book. You'll have to tell us if you won anything in a couple of days!

And yeah, comments are good so I don't think anyone would mind recieving comments unless they say they hate them or something!  :P



A ruptured heart
Lying on the floor
Next to the body
I'm not broken anymore

Weeping wounds
Hiding your disgust
Thorn in your crown
I turn your head to rust

Need you here
To keep me alive
Know you'll go away
With me you can't survive

You fixed me
Angel in disguise
You had to go
I never liked goodbyes

Hey thanks! Although apparently, they don't notify the winners on the 15th, but something must have happened, so I'll just wait for news of any kind! Also, Random House Co. should be selecting winners for the Eragon poetry contest (That I also entered) and I'll know if I won anything on Feb. 15th.


Dedicated to a girl at my school:

Believe it or Not

Believe it or not,
Not everyone wants to be anything like you
Or your "posse."

Believe it or not,
Most of my friends want absolutely nothing to do with you.
Actually, make that all of my friends, and yes I do have friends!

Believe it or not,
But I'm considering you my friend less and less each day
And I know you are feeling the same way about me.

Because I think it's dumb that anywhere else I'm your friend,
But around any of your other friends, from your "posse,"
You want nothing to do with me.

You don't even say hi, or acknowledge my presense
In any way.
Sure, we have our moments, but moments aren't enough to keep a steady friendship.

How do you enter poetry compititions  ??? Can anyone enter or would they tell me to bugger off!  :P They probably would actually... ::)



We're all alone
Darkness
Broken light erupting from you
Static
Rushing through my head, love
Like a thread
Injected, holding me together
Ragdoll, but still alive, faint
Not yet broken
Still loving


~


So many zombies with beautiful eyes
Hiding so quietly behind their disguise
Holes in their arms stop them from bleeding
Dead on the floor, no longer breathing.
This tunnel so narrow, burning inside
A numbness to block out all of their lives
This ecstasy keeping them safe from the nightmares
An eternal bliss just causing more cruel tears.
Innocent stares at the hole neverending
A seemingly fun way to live, halo's bending
A glittering life to kill, always wanting
More to be full, please stop the hurting.
Still it crawls on, a girl in a dream
Hey, little girl, where have you been?
Crawled on too far, no room to turn
Stuck in a pit and left to burn.
Arms scarred and burned from too many drugs
Ahe's left all alone, stripping in pubs
Selling her body for all that its worth
Sleeping outside in the cold and the dirt.
The tunnel is gone and left is a hole
She's curled at the bottom with her crooked soul
Despising and cursing all that exists
She will do anything to get that last hit.
They found her there, coiled and cold
Her pain and her hurt in this hovel, she's sold
They said that this was just a bad district
Now she is just another statistic.



(I just realised how much I hate that second poem! The structure is so irratating...the whole poem is just...blah! :P)

A plummeting fear,
a broken sleep,
laying restless,
memories torn,
was it you who lay here beside me,
warmed these sheet with sleeping breaths,
your hairs tickling the skin of my face,
it couldn’t be you who lay here so tranquil,
held me with strong arms,
the same who broke my heart,
frayed to a thousand pieces, shattered,
how could that have been you?
The same person so captivated by love,
looking intently into my eyes with resolute affection,
you don’t gaze anymore,
eye’s turned to the ground,
how could this be you?

Masks

Everywhere I look, people are wearing masks.
Happiness, joy, humour.
They are all pseudo-feelings.

The people wear masks to hide their truths within.
To hide their true feelings.
The shameless are shameful,
The guiltless are guilty,
The joyful are angered or sad.

I know I wear masks sometimes as well.
Although, now, sometimes has become more often.
And more oftern has become frequently.
Soon frequently shall become permanently,
And the mask will never come off.

My vulnerability and hopelessness,
My fear and sorrow,
Hidden forever and continuously building up.
Threatening to one day overflow,
Or explode in upon themselves.
And that day I shall become a wreck of emotions.


I wrote that one just a few days ago, and it's my currrent fave.

So close to you in flickering consciousness
So close I feel a heart beating brightly, envy
I'll rip open your pretty chest and tear
She'll tear, broken on the floor
It was just a dream, you bit him
Dream of blood so you can drink him
Then feel love, close, in pieces
Like a nightmare tears for kisses
My mouth is dead and bleeding
Cracked, wishing I could feel them
Comforting, cradle me through the nothing
The empty hollow, affection is all you'll get
You'll never ever get more than what you give
Always less I need too much
Yet nothing filling up the blank
Just your scream, bit too hard
Trying to get to your core
To steal your heart

I see you standing there
Turn away like you don’t care
It’s okay cause someday you’ll see
That the two of us were meant to be

Thinking about what you said
Letting your words get to my head
Fill my mind with thoughts of you
Gotta have you someday soon

End the pain of loneliness
Seal my fate with your sweet kiss
Take my heart and keep it near
For your heart I’ll hold dear

when im dead

Will everyone forget me,
When I'm dead?
Will they ever speak of me?
Or think of things I've said?

Will they ever cry,
When they see my face,
In old pictures,
That time will erase?

Will they remember,
The times we spent talking,
Or will they ever look back,
And think they seen me walking?

buttons i absoluitely love the lonely girl poem, you clearly have an amazing talent. I'll post some poems ive written, but i dont think they are as good as everyone elses so all suggestions on improvements to my technique/comments would be gratefully recieved.

Neverending

Going insane,
Don't think I can take this pain,
Things will never be the same.
So many lies,
Once more I'm forced to wear my disguise.
Were you blind to the hurt you caused?
Try looking through my eyes
See how it feels
to be this ill
with worry and discontent.
It's the same old song
a friendship gone wrong.

Certain as the sun will set
I will never forget
The things we shared,
But you never cared.
Does it make you happy
to know the pain you caused?
surely i didnt have that many flaws?
You closed every door to me,
left me unable to see
You alone hold the key
that locked my heart away.

Youth

Birds singing,
Children laughing,
The leaves rustling,
The darkness fades
The heart grows weary
Longing for innocence
and those days of naivity
Fighting the path beneath my feet
Wanting to step back in time,
Forget every line,
Spoken in malice.
Come fill my chalice with joy, happiness and love,
Shun reality,
Enjoy the fantasies of yesterday

hm...how about this piece of nonsense?... :laugh: :P

I died with my eyes open
I am far beyond redemption, as
far as I am beyond sin.
I delve in your darkness like a knife.

You can't kill my demons with a silver bullet
psychotic acidic mistakes
death pouring rich from my fingers
               long, cold fingers of pain.

Hello, darkness, my friend...

My body may be gone
But my spirit lives on
The sun will always shine
And you will always be mine
As night follows day
My spirit is here to stay
Never Apart
I will live on in your heart
Until we are once more united
Our loving words once more recited
I will love you always
Long after our earthly days
We will walk with The Lord
Hard times we have endured
But our love will see us through
In Heaven we can start anew...
