One day hope said to trust:
Will you ever trust me?
Trust unwillingly said:
You are just mere hope.
How could i ever trust you?
So hope went back home,
Feeling hopeless.

But on another occasion,
Trust was feeling vulnerable;
So he asked hope:
Is there anymore hope left?
Hope simply answered:
It has always been there
until you started to mistrust me!

Hope and trust then,
Were torn apart,
Without either hope
or trust.

slowly fading away i know i am..

i can feel the tiny flicker of light buning out of me
succumbing to the heaviness of my heart and the weakening of my whole being
the tears that won't dry up lest they be like sands in the desert
and you my beloved has gone so far away from me..
you cannot hear the faint pulse that may soon completely cease
nor my desperate attempts to scream for your beautiful name
which almost always falls into soft whimpers...as i catch each breath
painfully and exhausting to my tattered soul..i see you
like a most vivid dream inside my hallucinating mind
or a lucid nightmare that has no end where I...
engulfed in an eternal lake of fire...might never again awake.

I'm not asking you to write my sonnet for me. But we read a love poem/sonnet. It must be a love/like sonnet with 10 syllables in each line. We start off with "Shall I compare thee to ____________. I have 4 more syllables left for this line. What is an object or something that is a good thing for comparing my girlfriend too. I can't think of something. I was trying to think of something that is beautiful, something I want, something I need, something perfect etc. What is something I can put with 4 syllables at the end of my first line in my sonnet (Shall I compare thee to ____________) I've never really been the creative type so I really need your help to think of something that will fit into this. Thanks a lot!


So basically I'm just comparing my girlfriend thorough the rest of the sonnet to whatever I put in the blank at "Shall I compare thee to "a pretty girl" Though that's to plain and will not work

What is this poem portraying?

ngland, in this great fight to which you go
Because, where Honour calls you, go you must,
Be glad, whatever comes, at least to know
You have your quarrel just.

Peace was your care; before the nations' bar
Her cause you pleaded and her ends you sought;
But not for her sake, being what you are,
Could you be bribed and bought.

Others may spurn the pledge of land to land,
May with the brute sword stain a gallant past;
But by the seal to which you set your hand,
Thank God, you still stand fast!

Forth, then, to front that peril of the deep
With smiling lips and in your eyes the light,
Steadfast and confident, of those who keep
Their storied scutcheon bright.

And we, whose burden is to watch and wait--
High-hearted ever, strong in faith and prayer,
We ask what offering we may consecrate,
What humble service share.

To steel our souls against the lust of ease;
To find our welfare in the common good;
To hold together, merging all degrees
In one wide brotherhoo

No posse ho

so tonight i feel i've shared my wisest words
is that enough so i can go?
i've taught some really valuable accords
can i go now? my soul needs it so
stepping back to my humble abode
i cannot help but smile and pray to know
what sets them apart from the other horde?
A heart , that sees no posse ho.

Never In My Dreams

You’re here in my heart, I’ll never be alone
You always take my pain away
When I hear that sweet voice on the phone
Like coffee, your love starts my day

I wish that I could wake every sunrise
To you, by my side every time
I thrill to dream of your eyes
Staring dark and straight into mine

CHORUS
The sting from the tears I feel each time you leave
lets me know the pain is real and I still believe
Someday, I don’t know when, we'll be as one
I have faith. Until then, I can tell everyone
I may be alone, but never in my dreams

BRIDGE
And if I were a million miles away, I'd miss your smile
And if I had a million walls in the way, I'd see your eyes
My love, there's nothing I wouldn't do
To be right there next to you
Right there next to you

INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE

BRIDGE
And if I were a million miles away, I'd miss your smile
And if I had a million walls in the way, I'd see your eyes
My love, there's nothing I wouldn't do
To be right there next to you
Right there next to you

CHORUS
The sting from the tears I feel each time you leave
lets me know the pain is real and I still believe
Someday, I don’t know when, we'll be as one
I have faith. Until then, I can tell everyone
I may be alone, but never in my dreams

REPEAT CHORUS, ROUNDING WITH BRIDGE, TO FADE

Hi I'm Cameron and I wrote this poem with my sister and my friend so I hope you like it. It's sorta for this guy I like.


Here it is:


At school I see you everyday,
I wish that you saw the real me,
though I talk and you listen,
we're not as close as we could be

We're friends for now and that is fine,
Though I wish you could be mine,
Sometimes I hide away or run,
I think of you when the day is done.

Nobody can hurt her now
She won't cry anymore
The gun is being held to her head
She says
You can't kill me baby
I'm already dead

An ebony sky as the sun shines
Hail stones striking as the wind falls
Endless perverse happenings
The world is a trampoline

Where are the climbing jasmine
A name is called
The letter cannot be opened
The news requires exertion

A scent is detected and remembered
Love taught me to die
There is no amusement
Direction is obscured by the ebony sky

I’ve waited all my life…
To cross this line,
To be a lady so fine,
But it’s just too late a time.
I have to see you hurting,
With these two eyes of mine,
With this broken heart of mine.

I’ve waited all my life…
To find this person I am,
To praise my God for all I have,
But it’s just too late a time.
I have to see you hating me,
Not trusting me anymore,
Not in love with me anymore.

I’ve waited all my life…
To love you with all my heart,
To save us from going apart,
But it’s just too late a time.
I have to see you leaving me,
In my worst nightmare,
In a life I could not bear.

--->i know this is not really great, but i just need to let out the negative feelings that i have through this poem. I feel a lot better after writing this piece! ;-)

A somber wind blows through my door
Reminding me of all my flaws
A subtle down pour drowns my soul
And quenches my thirst for pain
The lack of self holds me back
I've often wondered what I could have been
But all illusions tend to fade
And here I sit in a pile of waste
Have I let life pass me by
Have I even gave a damn
A sobering thought that I have failed
While drinking in the here and now
What of tomorrow
What of my wife
Can I subdue the madness inside and live a normal life
Or is this just a dream
Have I already lost it inside a padded room
A somber wind blows through my door
And the white coats have come to take me away

"See my grave?
See whom I scarred?
See the green papers:
Of wealth, that all adore?
Its where thou sittest
It where thou looketh.
Its a curse."

"Twas it began when I:
Met a woman.
I knew everything of her.
I robbed; I raped
I made a living out of this:
For many, many decades.

"She wasn't the only one
No...no not at all!
I made good money.
Just because others
Disobeyed their parents."



hint: i just made this in 10 min tell me plz how well i did

The hellbound darkness swallows my scream
As I lay here in the corner at night
His poison kisses were too intoxicating
Too Toxic
For my heart
As I lay here in my coffin
Powered and Painted White
I think of a plan of my revenge

Your smiling face
Now gone, with out a trace

I want you here so much
To hear your voice, to feel your touch

I don't know if your in heaven or hell
Nobody does, only God can tell

Not knowing where you are
Has left me with a gaping scar

You've been gone for six years
But the end of my pain does not grow near

As each year goes by
I think you will come back, I cannot lie

The pain is just way to deep
I want to have you here, to see, to keep

To tell you how much you broke my heart
I couldn't even begin to start

It feels like my heart has been taken away
There is not a price I would not pay

Just to see my family smile
without there being a missing tile

Without you our family photo is not complete
please come back Binny, I'll always repeat



this is another poem for my sister who died, except the middle part is for my sister who killed herself and the start is for the one that died (I was confused about my feelings at the time) i hope you follow.

on my knees

For so damn long, I decieved just myself,
Very few people knew the depths of my pain.
I'll take you there, but no one else may come along
You'll see the tears that I cry, when I'm all by my self.

I know that you have always been here
Just a matter of time, till you located my heart.
You are the one, I know that you care.
I have no doubt, that you will always be there.

I am never ashamed to express how I feel,
I love you now, above everything.
You are my future, my present, my past,
I know that you love me, the die has been cast.

So I cry out now, I need only you,
You make me pure, a man once again.
All of my life, I've tried and I've failed,
But I still got up and now you are real.

Everything I am, is because of my past,
The good and the bad, now I just wait.
I am now down on both of my knees,
Weeping for you, just as you cryed for me.
