Poetry

You came over
And boasted tonight
About your wonderful life
But I saw the light

You have no life
That’s why you ruin mine
You don’t even know it
Because you’re blind

I’m moving on
Like I should have before
I won’t be here the next time
You come to the door

Thank you for showing me
Your true colors tonight
I’m as free as a bird
Who has just taken flight

A Poem For You

When I see you,
what can I say?
I think to myself no chance, no way
A guy like you would never like me,
let alone look twice to see
When you are near,
my heart skips a beat
I get all shy and look down at my feet
When I look into your eyes, so deep,
I begin to quiver,
its hard to speak
I've written poems for you before,
to slip them under your locker door
But what I now have the courage to do,
is give you this poem,
A Poem For You

Nothing is Wrong

Mother is upstairs,
Cleaning the kitchen sink.
I can hear the scrubbing,
As she is busily rubbing.
Going on today,
As if it were just another day.
Nothing to worry about she is ok.
Nothing is wrong,
Not one to complain.
She keeps it inside,
As if it is just another day.
Laughing at the jokes that,
Come from tv.
As if they are funny,
As if the sky above is sunny.
Like there is still something worth laughing about.
As if the sky is still gleaming and nothing is wrong,
She sings a song,
As the music blares from the stereo,
That does'nt run all that well.
Keeping herself busy,
Running about her life in a frenzy.
With a smile etched on her face,
Engraved like stone as if she is afraid that if she lets it down,
The silence may leave her and she may start to cry.
Then the day is done,
And the sun has gone down.
Not a star in the sky,
Nothing but darkness,
And now she can hide,
She can go in her room and cry.

(not done wait for details.)

Don't Be A Stranger

Though the light shines bright
You will not enter
Why do you stand afar off
In the darkness
Is there a pain that hinders
Or is rebellion your only freedom
Does chaos reign in the intricacies
And is order just a weak realm
Will the love you seek
Be found in the dark mist
For you were issued from light
But you resist to return
If eyes do not lie
Then view mine
And find some measure
Of truth, logic and love
A shadowy step
I offer you to climb
So that your brightness
Will be brighter than mine

Dark, decrepit, dreary damned night
Fills my bowels with stones of fright
My eyes shift from the left to the right
While shadows dance in the pale moonlight

No human should walk the earth at this hour
Per chance to meet some unearthly power
I watch, I listen, I dodge, I cower
While heart burns, stomach churns, and mouth tastes sour

The cold wind howls with evil glee
Anticipating my destiny
I know some spectre waits for me
To rend, to end mortality

I watch it standing up ahead
With fingers of bone and eyes of red
Beckoning me to join the dead
I change my path, with feet of lead

I begin to tremble and I can swear
If only in mind, there's something here
And I die in waiting, there's death in fear
Damned night be gone, glorious dawn appear

Pain, Rain & Music

Now he’s got the girl
And I’ve got the pain
He’s got the honey
And I’ve got the rain

He gets kisses
While I get insane
But I got music
Running round in my brain

Pain inspired to compose
Black and Decker prose
A rose is a rose
But ends in woes

Her voice is gone
Let my heart sing
Of the days of spring
She was everything

Now absence from me
I must drown in the sea
Let the wave cover my agony
My agony

When I rise again
From the depths
From the precepts
I must accept
My all alone steps

And it doesn’t matter
That I shatter the quiet
With a musical riot
Cause deep down inside
I just don’t buy it

Cause he’s got the girl
And I’ve got the pain
He’s got the honey
And I’ve got the rain…

L’Oneliness

What mountain is higher than loneliness
And what valley is lower than despair
For my heart is torn in the wake of apathy
And I long for a life to share

The light stays dim behind my shades
And all the shadows glow
My voice echoes off the wall
With words that I don’t know

An orange beam filters in
Unwelcome guest in my room
What right the sun to be so bright
When I am filled with deadly gloom

My heart beats irregular
And my thoughts have no pattern
And I hear the wicked laughter
Because the ravens are a-gathering

My soul is on the wire
This might be the end
All the darkness, all the pain
Just cause I have no friend

So if you see me on the outside
Just smile and nod your head
And know that I’m still living
And not yet the living dead

If orange were red
And red were blue
Would you look at me
If I said I was you

If the truth were a lie
And a lie were a joke
Could you tell my painting
By the stroke

Cause you plagiarize
And you stole from me
Now a lie you are
And shall ever be

When the sun gets mad
Orange turns to red
And the strokes on the canvas
Is where I bled

Now you are me
And I got what I’m due
And a joke is a joke
Cause I stole from you too

I wish that you were here,
when I washed that final tear,
it reminded me of the way you made me feel,
it was not a dream it was totally real.

I saw you outside the window,
waiting for summer to come,
and now that its finally here,
you only wish that I was near.

I open the door to see you,
but you were not there,
I looked everywhere,
but you were nowhere to be found.

I wanted to cry my heart out,
but that would not solve a thing,
so I gathered my belongings to find you,
but I soon found that you were gone for good.

Now I miss you more than ever,
you must have known,
you were always that clever,
I could not see what you had shown.

Ill make it alright if you just come back,
why did you go in the first place,
was it because of the way I act,
I can make it better if i just erase.

I am sorry that I just watched you,
but never told you to come in,
I am sorry that this was over,
before it could ever begin.

I stared at you while we wrote during school.
I took my focus off of the teacher *giggles* and glanced at you every 5 seconds to see was you looking back.
I Dressed up for you.
I changed everything for you.
Did you notice me ?Did you care? Before you had her around your arm i was there , there trying to capture your heart with my beauty and beautiful flowing brown hair I always knew that i would try my best to be there.Been awhile now since you said your first word to me loving memories thought dreams wouldnt never come true but always remember this that i would have never left you.

"I poison my lips with anger and hatred, and so do my life suffer with revengeful attacks"..

2007-08-10 16:52:02 · 12 answers · asked by Angelica 2

Never can I do in peace
That with which my Soul’s obsessed,
Never take things at my ease;
I must press on without rest.

Others only know elation
When things go their peaceful way,
Free with self-congratulation,
Giving thanks each time they pray.

I am caught in endless strife,
Endless ferment, endless dream;
I cannot conform to Life,
Will not travel with the stream.

Heaven I would comprehend,
I would draw the world to me;
Loving, hating, I intend
That my star shine brilliantly.

All things I would strive to win,
All the blessings Gods impart,
Grasp all knowledge deep within,
Plumb the depths of Song and Art.

Worlds I would destroy for ever,
Since I can create no world,
Since my call they notice never,
Coursing dumb in magic whirl.

Dead and dumb, they stare away
At our deeds with scorn up yonder;
We and all our works decay --

This is about someone in public eye alot, guess who it is if you want:

Oh tell me Mr Troubadour
Please tell me what my heart is for?
Can’t you share your aesthetic ways
For I’ve been up pondering for days

You’re a minstrel and a class ahead
Though you choose your sedatives instead
Your no user, you’ve become an abuser
Dump your pusher for he is a loser

A prompt grave seems now secured
So soon leave such a legacy is simply absurd
Come on you bohemian bastard,
Why can’t you waiver faster


Oh Maverick, we shall save you
As this ode is emphatically overdue

the call to perfection,
is a call,
which my hand would answer,
but, my heart won't,
when every part of my heart and soul,
crying to fly,
i was brought back to earth,
by the rope that bounds me,
to my duty of perfection,
it felt so hard,
when you try to be,
what they want you to be,
if they could only try,
try to see that i'm just,
nothing more or nothing less,
than just a human being,
but, what can i do?
than just to smile and go along,
wishing that my heart,
could just do the same....

grab a hold of my hand,
as i pull you in the darkness realm,
and you start to see the darkness take over your soul.

it makes you blind,
to all that you used to be able to see,
and your going to judged on all that you have done.

ill walk with you to face your punishment,
don't say a word cause you know that it was all your fault,
and don't try to to walk away cause you would not have anywhere to go.

why did you decide to party that night,
to kill all of those inocent people,
arent you ashame of yourself.

did he kill you no,
he died on that cross for you,
but then you killed yourself and made them the way they felt.

dont say its wronge,
cause he has all the reason to do this,
what part of his blood did you miss.

now talk to him before your done,
you will stay here for all eturnity,
because you killed yourself after you killed them.

My World's End

by: Yoselis Ramos

I open my eyes
Looking at what sorrounds me
Darkness, a lone heart, an empty soul
My feet drag me through the dark space
I feel cold air splashing my face
The reality of my heart unfilled
Brings rain pouring on me

I've been kissed
By far worse than death
But by Cupid
This vicious fiend is the reason
For my mourn of love

I met his crystal eyes
And the end of life
I was dazed, hypnotized
And completely his
His voice:
The melody to my soul
His smile:
Light to all my fears
My world filled with pink and butterflies
Soon to be a living hell

A fray against reality
Dreaming you would once look my way
Drawing my sword
But the shot already going through my flesh
Simply knowing I will never be a part of your heart
Brought the end to my world

Don't you know you're hurting the family
Don't you know you're hurting me
All of your faces are so scary
and all of those hurt me
dont you see that we all know
that we all know your a killer
you leave with the keys and kill all of us
you leave us hurting like a knife to the chest
i wish you could see
how your breaking me
if there is a god why is he doing this to me
this is not my life
i want out
please just stop your killing us

WATERDOOM

Pulling through the muddied grounds of Vaduz,
cannon wheels stuck in scarred chocolate mousse,
Remnants of their former glory
abandoned in liveried chocolate boxes
Twisted ,untwisted, chewed and disgarded
childish fear for such a mentors measure
holy houses for the insane treasure
Mata Hari glorious risen
Powder black, powder black, powder black
red mists through powder black
Soon this the moments dread.

~Life Without You~

I don't pretend anymore
That I am fine this way;
It's the truth, it was a lie
All the times I said "Im okay."

But I have learned a lot since then--
The night when all went blurry--
A broken heart can't be healed,
By tears or laughter or fury.

But they look at me as if I'm ill,
Or like I'm half insane.
I know they only want to help,
But it only brings more hurt and pain.

Oh, I've learned that when I beg and plea,
I still can't be with you.
I guess if God had wanted that to be
He would have called me home then, too.

But it's hard to remember all this,
When I look at these tragic scars;
It's only life without you
But life without you is awfully hard.



Honestly, this isn't one of my best. I just wrote it because I felt like writing something touching. I used a little of my own experience for inspiration, but not that much. Anyway, please tell me what you think.

Thanks!

Loneliness...

Like a flower with no petals

like a poem with no rhymes

like an angel with no feathers

like a star in the sky

like thorns threw your body


like a knife threw your chest

like trying to find somebody

but falling from your nest

like a diamond in the sea

like silence in your heart

like pain that ever lasts

like my soul that fell apart

“A poem”
Not a picture or a cartoon.
I give you my heart.
It is a plain object wrapped in red,
It promises love.
Like the careful honest loving heart of a baby.
Pure.
It will fill you with love.
Like a glass filled with water.
It will make your reflections on photos of happiness.
I am trying to be honest.
Not a commercial ad or a lair.
I give you my heart.
Its love will keep you wanting more.
Its fierce love will keep yours growing too.
Strong and pure
Its touch will leave a mark in your heart.
In your life.
