They're all so cool. Hungry man made me hungry, mentioning the hot dog at the end. Yum! And The End by Stellarwind was really cool! Reminded me of the stuff I read in Revelation the other day. ^^

Anyway - figured I'd write something...

~Mist

Giving Everything

for my wrong actions you gave your life
and i need you to be with me

i give up everything just to find you
i seek you i need you
i breathe you too

surrounded by shadows of the dark
show me new life show me your light
let it guide me down this path
and i need you to be with me

of what i dont know what i cant understand
and i no longer need the world
the world will fall away
but you will be my saviour
for all of eternity

neat poems everybody! it's weird how poems with the same theme seem to blend though.

"A Whim Was All It Took"

A whim was all it took.
Every emotion forgotten for a few moments.
Like a furnace, then they warmed me.
But on this whim which has not warned me
I have fallen from our story.
Now a legend from the past.
I never thought my future could last without it.
But then the whim shouted.

More after than before, and even while I released,
I wondered how one could feel so at peace,
Without a fear that when she turned around,
He wouldn't be there.
And the impulse of a whim was all it took,
To overcome the volumes of a book,
Written across years when I would lie in bed,
And wonder why you wouldn't.
Then wonder why I couldn't,
After doing what I should have done, or shouldn't.

"Don't Forget Who Runs this S***"

It used to be the last word was the first thing on my mind.
I'd listen if the other dared, then stepped over the line to scare them back across,
Til they looked lost. Like they've never seen conflict before,
Knowing they can't top the score I scrawled across their memory.
Ya can't stop remembering without the sting. It's lurking when you look up and only see me smirking...

But now I can say I've found less wasteful ways to get by,
Rather than stop your pulse while smothering whatever clever insult you call upon.
Talk yourself along,
Let yourself believe you got me down as wrong.
Honesty’s advantage and I just point and laugh at you.
But the counter which leaves you angry and mute will not escape my lips,
Why should it when I’ve gained an entertainment from your uncontested quips.

I understand, my friend. A joke is all that holds you,
From facing what sad views this life has sold you.

[Razola]

Meh.

Don't tell anyone
But this Haiku just might be
One syllable too long

[Chris 2.1]

Wow, nice work Mist! I liked yours too, DratiniHaunter, and Raz, that Haiku was brilliant B-)


Ok, I got some more work....:->



No Silver Lining

I stand here, alone
I stand here, without you,
It's killing me...

My world, it's gone
Crashed and burned,
with no body to embrace,
It's Killing me...

But as I stare
across the world,
I see those more in need.
People crying,
Children dying,
and their call I don't heed.

While you and me,
Can eisily
start and finish just like that,
there are people out there,
with no silver lining,
and that's a solid fact.

[RedStarWarrior]

Clean-Cut American Youth

I want to kill someone
I want to end a life
Going to have some fun
With you under my knife

Wish a slash and a jab
I will fill you with pain.
Where my life was once drab
It's now filled with disdain

Filled with hate for all life
Yours in particular
In a moment of strife
I'll slice your jugular

And as you grow drowsy
Laying in a red pool
Please know I'm not crazy
I'm just really cruel
--------------------------------------------
Noble Sinner

I cursed my soul from within
I filled my heart up with sin
I kill, cheat, and lie
There's no way to justify

As you see from my behavior
I am not your godly savior
So no matter what you say
I'll go to hell anyway

I offer no explanation
But instead accept damnation
I will not fold in fear
And repent when death is near

I deserve what I get
For the God I did forget
And I'm prepared to burn
It's the fate I did earn
--------------------------------------------
The Adjournment of Existence

Allow me to wallow in self-pity,
As I ponder why I'm in this city,
And why I battle just to stay alive,
In a life-long struggle I won't survive.

I think of all my sorrow erased,
And of all the problems I have faced,
I have but only one request,
My sole desire, eternal rest.

Too long have I lived with regret,
The pains of this world I can't forget,
I wonder if it would be alright,
If I were to end it all tonight.

And so with this I do depart,
And nevermore does beat my heart.
--------------------------------------------
The End of an Affair

An open drawer.
Seeking revenge, an upset lover.
Double-cross uncovered.
Loaded pistol, six chambers, full.
One needed, two possible, bullets abundant.
Liar confronted, denying, woman cries.
Weapon drawn, careless aim.
Flash of light, ping of electricity, knocked back.
Second flash, falling body.
Inanimate figure, sprawling on floor.
Down on knees, tears drop, salty rain.
Gun raised, cold on temple.
Trigger squeezed, crimson spray.
Two motionless.
Gun on floor, empty casings.
Silence.
--------------------------------------------
The Strong-Willed Schizo

Death to the demoness,
Decided by joint congress,
Of voices in my head,
Who all want her dead.

I'm running out of time,
And must commit this crime.
Although I doubt their choices,
I must follow the voices.

And now I must kill,
But against my will.
Too bad she will perish,
For all life I cherish.

Who am I kidding?
I can't do their bidding.
I don't believe in death,
And can't take her last breath.

I will not commit sin,
Pushed by those from within.
--------------------------------------------
Trading Halos for Horns

Pitch-black feathered wings
Filled with pure evil
Or charred by the flames
From the fires of Hell

And no chorus sings
To muse the Devil
Of those without names
These halos that fell

And temptation brings
Down to this level
These angels sin tames
And God does expel
--------------------------------------------
Poetry is an outlet for me....say what you will, just don't get mad if I don't care what you think.

[Razola]

I want to kill someone
I want to end a life

Yours in particular
In a moment of strife

And as you grow drowsy
Laying in a red pool
Please know I'm not crazy
I'm just really cruel

For some reason I sang this to the Mentos theme song.

EDIT: Check it out:

'Doo doo doo doo, doo-doo, do-Wah!'

I want to kill someone, I want to end a life. Going to have some fun with you under my knife

With a slash and jab, where my life was once drab, now with Mentos, fresh and full of life.

Fresh goes better, Mentos freshness, fresh goes better with Mentos, fresh and full of life!

Mentos, the freshmaker!

ONE REASON


There's one reason
Why they call me names
There's one reason
Why they hate me
It's not because
I Lie are kill
It's not the reason
They hate me
The only reason why they do
Is simple as can be
It's because im different
That's why they hate me.

[RedStarWarrior]

Nightmare

I don't understand
Why I can't feel
Anything but pain
This can't be real
I must be dreaming
Please wake me up
This can't be my life
It's not this screwed up
Or maybe it is
And I just didn't see
As it unraveled
In front of me
I can't live like this
I wish it would end
Only God knows
With what I contend
So now I prepare
As I grip this knife
For my last rites
And the end of my li--

[PancaKe]

So many of these that I read seem to be about hatred and stuff and being alone. That is so sad Anyway, I wrote something. I dont know if its a song or a poem or maybe both *shrugs* but it is not depressive. I dont know but I think I twisted the words so that it seems depressive and dark but its not. If you read carefully - its quite full of hope.

~Mist

Never

I dont normally get upest
I cant remember the last time
That I was depressed
Thats right, I never was drowning
In sorrows that were never ending
I dont ever remember feeling that way
Feeling my life was at an end
I think I'm pretty lucky after all
Pretty lucky to recieve such grace
And to have such a life to lead
And every day I succeed
If it isnt' ended in tears
And I'm so grateful to you
Lord please keep staying next to me
Keep holding me close
And drying my tears
Whenever I am sad
Keep holidng me tight
And I know you always win the fight
When you defend me from my fears
Keep holding me in your arms
Soothing me and keeping me calm
And I know
No matter when I'm isolated in the crowd
I'll never be alone

[DannyBoy]

~ Stepping Down ~

Stepping down,
Let down my guard,
Get down on the ground,
Gonna make my fists pound,
Running out of time,
Always at the crime,
Im stepping down.

Break my face and soul,
But I will try to stay whole,
My skin turning pale,
Hanging tight on the rail,
I feel my fingers slippin,
With the sound of blood drippin,
What did I do wrong?
I stopped with a bite of my tounge,
I dont want to take no more,
I just want to go,
I am just gonna step down.

[Crystal Tears]

Wow been a while, ty for the replies on mine, and I love everyone's in here. They all have a different point of view on things. Sometimes hard to see though..

Tear For Ginger

I lost someone special to me yesterday,
I came home,
Everything had been going right,
Nothing could have gone wrong,
But When I came home,
Apart of my heart disappeared…
No I didn’t lose my Mother,
No I didn’t lose my Father,
I lost my best friend,
And my only true one,
One who couldn’t betray me,
One that couldn’t hurt me,
One that made me safe…
No I didn’t Lose my Sister,
No I didn’t lose my Cat,
In November,
One a rather cold day,
Was the last day,
I saw my Best Friend,
One I loved,
One who loved me,
One no one could replace…
I lost Ginger,
And so doing,
I lost part of my heart,
A whole is left,
Right where she used to Stand,
Still now,
I come home from School,
Thinking to see her,
I wish to feel her warm, soft fur…
I pray for you Ginger,
I ask God,
To take of her,
I ask for her to teach young Angels to fly,
I was foolish to think that she would never die,
I was foolish to think that she would remain,
But my heart wouldn’t let me think it any other way,
She was 13 years old in Human,
She was 19 years old in Dog.
I donnot care what other people think,
It is okay to cry,
Crying shows you have emotion,
Ginger had to be put down,
She was in pain,
People say it’s okay,
Maryam made a joke,
She can go **** herself,
My dog was my Friend.
Ginger was the best,
She owned everyone else,
She was happy and joyful,
I never got to say goodbye…
I never got to tell her I love her…
I yelled at her,
I screamed at her,
I once kicked her,
How could I be so mean to her?
How could I hurt her?
How can she ever forgive me now?
She’s gone now…
I never got to say sorry…
I never got to tell her I cared…
Moms considering a new dog,
Dad also wants a new dog,
But no matter how hard this new dog tries…
It could never replace Ginger,
Oliver cried last night,
I saw him…
He laid his head down,
His paw over one eye,
And a tear dripped down…
Even if people said Cats can’t cry,
I saw mine cry.
I Hate the vets for not helping her,
I sware to god,
I’ll make it up to Ginger,
I promise Ginger I will.
I go to school now,
Thinking about her,
How her tail used to wag,
How she thought she could speak English,
How she used to look at you with a certain forgiving look,
Somehow..
I think she knew she wasn’t coming home that day..
I loved her so much,
And still the love grows,
I keep telling myself its ok to cry,
But deep inside,
I want to stop,
I want to let go..
But she was there ever since I was born,
She was like another sister,
She was so happy that day,
When she went to the vet,
I bet she was scared…
When she entered that room..
But she went to Heaven…
She has too,
She was nice,
Took care of everyone,
It was the saddest day of my life,
When my dog left this world,
I hate myself for not treating her better,
I hate myself for not being there,
To see her,
It’s ok to be scared…
It just another emotion…
When my Dad told me,
I went and looked through the whole house,
Before I could even accept the fact she wasn’t in the house,
I looked at my dad’s eyes,
Tears,
So many of them had already fallen,
And now,
As he held me for about 8 minutes,
More fell,
I feel the burning truth rip away at my crying heart…
That day,
The World took away a piece of my heart,
For those who think I’m am stupid for crying over my Dog,
Then I don’t care,
I love her,
I’ll never forget her,
Her adorable face,
Her lovely bark,
Her soft warm fur,
Her Happy Wagging tail,
Her puppy dog eyes,
Her ever growing heart,
Her funky dances,
I will never Forget Her.
I will never forget..
The lovely,
The adorable,
The one,
The only…
Ginger…

I can't read that one myself, or I begin to cry.. So forgive me if theres any mistakes....

~CT~

[DannyBoy]

Crystat Tears wow that is really good and sad. Ginger seemed like a really cool and great dog.

Here are some more of my lyrics. Also before each one I am going to write something about it because when I showed my friends they kept thinking in a different direction in which it doesnt mean so here they are,

For this first song I wrote I got from a friend who told me to take a deep breath and breathe. I got in a fight with my cousin and now everything is resolved and thats were 'Breathe' comes from.


~Breathe~

With my guard down,
I am now more vunrable,
I have no more frown,
I am no more that dull,

I now can feel free to ask,
Anything I need to,
Soon I will have a task,
Not to be very cool,

So long it was no talk,
Now we talk every chance we get,
Now we can give people shock,
No more yelling and fits,
All we can do is breathe,


I just got to let go and breathe,
Now everything feels right,
It feel so good to see that shining light,
No more needs to fight,
I dont have to hold on to myself that tight,
I just go to let go and breathe.



The feel of talking to you,
Makes my day so much better,
And its good to be friends to,
Now whatever anyone says it doesn't matter,

I know we had troubles before,
now everything is clear,
now there is smiling more,
now we have no more fears,
This is the perfect time,

So long it was no talk,
Now we talk every chance we get,
Now we can give people shock,
No more yelling and fits,
All we can do is breathe,


Chorus


I want to say thank you so much,
How that one person got us as friends again,
It is a miricle how this happened with no fuss,
We are good friends like we were when we were ten,

So long it was no talk,
Now we talk every chance we get,
Now we can give people shock,
No more yelling and fits,
All we can do is breathe,

Chorus 2x



THis song I wrote when I was mad but yet tired of being nice to these two people I knew. They treated me badly and thats were you get the her from in it. I still amd nice just not to these people who were two faced.



~Sick of Being Nice~

Tired of saying please and thank you,
Tired of having good manors,
Nothing will ever please you,
I just want to point and blame her,

Im just sick of being nice,
I just want to get into a fight,
I wanna scream **** YOU,
And then kick you with my shoe,
Im sick of being mr. nice,
You always got to pay a price,
Gona shove your mouth full of mice,
Im sick of being nice,

Preasure building up inside,
Soon im going to explode,
I just want to sit and lie,
I wana throw you in the cold,
Tired of being happy,
Tired of kissing ***,
Damn I want to make you feel ****y,
How long will this last?
Till I can jump out and shout it?


Im just sick of being nice,
I just want to get into a fight,
I wanna scream **** YOU,
And then kick you with my shoe,
Im sick of being mr. nice,
You always got to pay a price,
Gona shove your mouth full of mice,
Im sick of being nice,

I am breaking out,
And I'm going to get you,
I am going to show you what I am all about,
There is nothing you can do,
Im not sorry for the things that will happen,
You cant blame me,
You would be like this to,


Im just sick of being nice,
I just want to get into a fight,
I wanna scream **** YOU,
And then kick you with my shoe,
Im sick of being mr. nice,
You always got to pay a price,
Gona shove your mouth full of mice,
Im sick of being nice!




THis is from a very bad relationship I had were it went wrong...you get it.

~Pain you cause~

Every night I stay up and wait,
You say the most convincing words,
It's starting to get late,
Nothing around me is heard,
I thought we had everything,
But damn it I wrong,

You are the cause,
Of my pain and hurting,
I let my guards down for you,
I did everything for you,
you made feel like a fool,
You weild me down like a tool you use,
All you give is an exuse,
Its just the pain you cause,

Im starting to bring back up my walls,
I am starting to lock my doors,
No more walks you want in the fall,
You hit my core,
Time to say good bye,
Time to go,
No more squashing me like a fly,
You just are a ho,
That I dont need no more,

You are the cause,
Of my pain and hurting,
I let my guards down for you,
I did everything for you,
you made feel like a fool,
You weild me down like a tool you use,
All you give is an exuse,
Its just the pain you cause,

And I dont take you **** no more,
You act like a dumb whore,
I am blocking you away,
I dont want to see you on any day,


You are the cause,
Of my pain and hurting,
I let my guards down for you,
I did everything for you,
you made feel like a fool,
You weild me down like a tool you use,
All you give is an exuse,
Its just the pain you cause,


THis is not a dirty song to some who might think it. 'Feel' is about going out to a club and just dancing all night. You have all these bodies around you and it gets overwelming and you get lost in the 'Feel' of things.


~ Feel~

Heat pouring all over me,
Sweat dropping to the floor,
I feel so lost and free,
I dont dare want to go by the door,
Feel of preasure all around my body,
Jumping and yelling in the back,
The feel of you next to somebody,
Here there is nothing you can lack,
Just be free to feel,

Feel,
All over your body,
Feel,
The need to grab a hottie,
Feel,
Sweat dripping over you,
Feel,
Here there is nothing we cant do,
Feel it all night lone,

Cloths sticking to my wet skin,
Feeling the beat in my bones,
In here you always win,
With the feel on different tones,
Tonight your going to hear some moans,
The sound is rising,
Everything so surprising,

Feel,
All over your body,
Feel,
The need to grab a hottie,
Feel,
Sweat dripping over you,
Feel,
Here there is nothing we cant do,
Feel it all night lone,

No way the tempature is dropping,
The only thing dropping is you,
We are gona keep on rockin,
I want to feel you breathe on me,
Heavy breathing will lead the way,

Feel,
All over your body,
Feel,
The need to grab a hottie,
Feel,
Sweat dripping over you,
Feel,
Here there is nothing we cant do,
Feel it all night lone,

[Mystic Flame]

~A Mist Amongst the Land - Poem~
Written by I, Mystic Flame.


The wind blew
the trees swayed.
And there it was
the start of day.

It was not bright,
nor was it sunny...
But eerie and cloudy...


The grass was still
as was the sky
and in the distance
you could hear the cry...

Crying for a better place,
A better place to live.
Where humans and pokemon
would live as one companion.

"Why This?"
the pokemon weeped.
As it lay aside a rock
by itself, and lonely.

Despaired and hurt
this pokemon lay,
as it felt heartache
and dissaray.

And the mist fell over the land.
Covering it like a blanket...
hovering like smoke...
silently
silently
The mist fell

Drizzling the grass
Drizzling the trees
And there was the pokemon
that lay there and weep.

In all of the calmness
and tranquility,
the pokemon lay there silently...
and weep.

[PancaKe]

Crystal Tears, I'm crying. I'm cryin because of your poem! Damn that is so sad! *hugs* I know you'll get thruogh this sad time in your life, I lost my dog like, three years ago, and I still think about her. And she could never be replaced either.

I understand.

~Mist

[Gepunktet]

How many of you guys have like a notebook you keep with you just to write down anythign from whole poems/lyrics to pieces of lines whenever they come to mind?
Just wondering becuase I just started doing that and found that I write in it more consitantly than I would an all out journal but it's still and outlet for me to express myself.
Anywho. . here are a few of mine.

Nostalgia
I hope that you'll be happy all the time
Never lose the way
There's more to what I feel in how I say
You never can by mine
Does it make you sad to know we gave up happy endings,
Searching for a decent place to play?
Isn't it unbearable looking back around,
Knowing everything that's thrown away?
Lost along the way?
Something effervescent in your eyes,
A light that you can't see.
I'd write you if I'd listen once to me
Cast off this disguise,
How is it we broke down all the innocence youth carries?
Sold it with our laughter and good times
Why can't it decisively be lusting or in love?
Save us all a little piece of mind.
Save your heart from dyin'.

Lullaby
I've heard your quiet whispers,
the words never meant for my ears.
Those darkened lullabies rock me to sleep amid my tears
I sit for hours and I drink
The soap to wash the fears away
Make it all okay.


This was written after an ex-boyfriend and now close friend of mine tried to commit suicide about a month ago. A couple of people had thought it was about someone breaking up with me, but that's not the case, especially since that hasn't happened recently.
Untitled
Memories,
I'm not afraid of facing
Cherish
times we often shared
Forever was some of the best times I've ever had
But sometimes things they changes,
People fade away.

Up until this day that I was perfect
How? I never understood.
Open up your eyes from your distorted reality
Why must you hurt like this when I can't?
Why must you breathe my breath, I'm not suffocating.
Why must you cause me so much pain?

Selfish
is all you ever were
dependent
hanging on my word and moment
I couldn't leave your the very reason that I wanted to
Don't wanna see you for all the **** you've put me through.

I wish that I could have you
Hating that you know I never could
But there's no room to love you anymore
Why must you push me when you know I'm on the edge?
Why must you close your eyes to all the ones that care?
Why must we take this path?

Don't think your crying will call me to your aide.
Don't try and reach me, I've closed and locked the gate.
You may be hurting but you'll never know the pain
You left with me
When you left here

[Crystal Tears]

IloveX-TINA: Omg, I love "Feel" so much, your really talented, the others are good to, I like Sick of Being nice, its cool. Breathe cool too, I wish to read more. ^_~

Mist: eeep! Didn't mean to make you cry, I let my friends read it too and they cried, it seems that catchs everyone of gaurd. And thanx for a hug, glad to know I'm not alone. ^_^

Mystic Flame: kool, really captures the pokemons view on battling.

Gepunktet: Nope, I have no notebooks, they're all filled with doodles and homework <_<;;;
Nice your work is, I like the Untitled one the best.

Heres some of mine, a happy one has arrived O_O
(they're kinda like songs but without the chorus)

What is this Feeling?

I am a shadow in the world,
But suddenly,
A chance has opened...
As a new door has opened,
I walk through bravely,
and I join the world of light,
the world of happiness...
What is this place?
Why do I feel a unknown feeling?
What could it be?
It's love,
as I see your face,
as I hear your voice,
I never want you to go away!
You take me for what I am,
You think me as a friend,
Not as a Alien,
But a Human...
And for that I am grateful,
Oh what is this feeling?
It's happiness,
As you smile my way,
I thank you,
You accept me for what I am..
Never have I been noticed,
but you looked my way,
And lightened my day,
Thank you so much!
I feel like I can fly!
I feel like a bird,
I am no more a shadow...
I turn and look everywhere,
To everyone everywhere...
I'm a human being,
I'm more then what I thought I could be!
And I love it so much!
I wish this day could last forver,
when the world noticed me,
The shadow in the world,
I'm more then a Shadow,
I'm more then a deamon,
I'm more then a evil that lurks around the corner,
I'm me.
And I am happy,
And finally,
I have the Right to be...

I most admit, that "What is This Feeling" jitters all over the place, but when you find happiness, you'll feel it too. You don't know what is, but you know your happy.

I'm going to try the song thing...

Judged

"Jennifer when are you going to try and fit in?"
Always the same...
"Jennifer your always going to be a loner until you fit in.."
The same thing...
"Jennifer..."
I'm tired of it...

I caught up in a circle,
Of liars and cheats,
They call themself cool,
They say that they're my friends...
Then why do they judge me?
Why do they torment me?

Chorus

Leave me alone!
Don't judge me for what I'm not!
Let me be!
Leave me here to weep!
Just go away!
Before I get going myself...

End Chorus

You think they could see why I cry,
I'm alone at night,
only my pillow knows my darkest secrets...
Only if they knew me better,
only if they gave me a chance...

But they won't!
Won't leave me alone!
Let me be myself,
let me show you,
what a freakshow can do,
without a cool girl beside her!

Chorus

Leave me alone!
Don't judge me for what I'm not!
Let me be!
Leave me here to weep!
Just go away!
Before I get going myself...

(chorus goes another time befor end)


Right, I suck at righting songs but I don't care! Hope you like it.

ghosts of the fallen




did you ever make it to
the end of that road?
tell me what it was like...
were you afraid?
or did you cross the finish line
headstrong and proud?

you always liked to fly
holding me in your arms
you never did like walking
but you'd have to come down someday

shackled to the earth
i'm yearning for your arrival
maybe i'm the one who left...
left you alone
maybe your streaming words off your face
which creates the stars in my sky

i whisper your name
every now and then
gaze up into those bleeding stars
that bleed their gaze
on all who weep

for life is but a lingering dream
and you have to wake up sometime
wandering with the spirits
of a world
both awake and dreaming

you said you would come back to me
someday... after you were gone
you left your spirit within me
already a lifeless body
locked away

we are but ghosts on this planet
wandering...
entwined in our guilt
and merciless sorrow

one day i shall awake
and walk away from this nightmare
grasping your hand
and digging my nails in deep

for already the bonds are loosening on me...

fading...
fading...
fading away...

[Darkmaster Kagemusha]

Sea of Thought

Over a Sea of Dreams,
My mind wanders,
Nothing's as it seems,
My sanity it squanders.

The mist confounds,
Makes me succumb,
To the frightful sounds,
That make me numb.

I'm locked inside my mind,
I've become an outcast,
Everyone else is blind,
To the knowledge I've amassed.

Lost in a Sea of Nightmares,
All for naught,
Destroyed by everyone's glares,
Upon a Sea of Thought.

[PancaKe]

Heyz, yeah. Not much to say. I wrote this song because I wanted to bla bla bla... ^^;;;

~Mist

All The Same

I see you point your finger at me
I see them all do the same
You laugh at me because I'm different
I laugh at you because your all the same

lead astray by the lies that influence your life today
cant you stop and think for yourself
instead letting your life be ruled by somebody else

I stand outside the fence and watch
You herd along with the crowd
When they laugh you laugh when they cry you cry
I watch you drown

lead astray by the lies that influence your life today
cant you stop and think for yourself
instead of letting your life be ruled by somebody else

i observe in great pity
my heart crys out to you
a slave to conformity
and blind to seeing what is the truth
the god of this time has covered your eyes
your helpless and lost without the crowd
and he died so that you could be saved
and he died so you could be changed

-----

lead astray by the lies that influence your life today
cant you stop and think for yourself
instead of letting your life be ruled by somebody else

let the cover be pulled from your eyes
let the light begin to shine
can you see now the darkness has gone
can you see how for so long you were lost

[dratinihaunter13]

I always play around with melodies in my head for those songs ya write mist, fun times ^_^. nice one btw.

Kinda crappy poem, but i think this feeling isn't too uncommon

"Imaginary Friend"

I need someone to understand.
To dig my thoughts out of the sand.
Who can foresee most of my actions.
Tell me my loves and my distractions.

Show me which paved path is mine.
Know my psyche to my favorite wine.
Show me exactly who I am.
Know how to help me understand.

[Razola]

Cabin fever has ravaged all aboard
This once proud vessel has become a floating psycho ward
We were sailing, sailing headed who knows where
And now though we're all here
We're not all there.

Bumped for great justice. I'll have something new soon.

[Royal_Goddess_Tina]

Wow... You are all such amazing writers... I'm not really good with poetry, but I wanted to post some anyway... I wrote these a couple years ago. I think it was when I was in grade 7... They aren't very good, they are extremely corny, and I will probably end up deleting this soon because they are so pathetic... But, oh well, here goes....

Sitting Alone

As I sit here alson,
and play with the phone.
I wonder why,
I have to cry.
I need someone in my life,
so I won't use this knife.
I want someone to always be there,
and I want them to truly care.
I'll need our love to be true,
so I won't feel so blue.
I pray to the moon,
that I meet you soon.
I feel a tear,
as I wish you were here.....

******************************************
and then this is kind of the continuation I guess....
******************************************

Now that You're Here

Now that I found you,
I am no longer blue.
I'm glad you're here,
to end this fear.
I love you so,
amd hope you don't go.
I know you care,
and we have a love most rare.
My love for you will never end,
because there's no pain we can't mend.
I love it when you hold me tight,
in the darkness of the night.
I love you,
and know you love me too.
Everyone knows,
our love is a rose.
It blooms stronger and stronger,
as our love lasts longer and longer.
You are always there,
and we are such a great pair.
I knew our love was true,
before we said "I do."
The beauty of a dove,
symbolizes our love.
Because of you I'm no longer sad,
and for that I'm very glad.
If you weren't here,
I don't know what I'd do dear.
I cherish you so much,
and love it when we touch.
For some things in life you're the only one I've told,
and you're the only one I've been able to hold....

[PancaKe]

Wow, they werent corny! They were cute! ^^;;

This is just something I'm gonna come up with quickly, basically about what im experiencing now...

~Mist

untitled


I wanted to cry today
I wanted to sit there in silence
But knowing me
I dont cry
I dont stop talking long enough to cry
So I didnt
But I felt empty
Because you werent there
It's only been twenty four hours
And I'm missing you
I know I'll see you on Saturday
I'm talking to you on the phone later tonight
But I miss seeing your face
I miss holding you
I miss telling you umbergala tenkatuitsuhen
I miss you
I'm so worried
I need prayre support so much
Another one of my friends wants to die
He says pain is nothing
HE says its been enough
Theres a rough home
Doped up home
Rough school
Its filled with bad kids
He should leave his home
He says that death is the end
But if he dies now
He's gone too far
He'll never see the light
He says
I'm sorry if I'm making you sad
I havent shown you the scar have I
When I tried to kill myself but stopped
Because memories flooded in my mind
Of those whom I cared for
And how it would affect them.
I was angry
I had to put down the knife
And then clean up the blood.
It was a big mess.
I tell him to get out of his home
To seek advice from professionals
But he wont listen
He told me he'd show me the scar on Saturday
If he doesnt get sad.
I dont want him to be sad
I pray for him every night
But sometimes I wish God would hurry up
Sometimes I forget that God is in charge
And think that he should listen to me
Instead of me listen to him.
Sometimes I wonder why I'm here
And then I remember that
"The harvest is plenty
But the workers are few"
And I am here to serve Jesus
Because that is what I am here to do
And although my heart beats faster whenever he is here
And the other my heart weeps bitterly for
I know that God is in charge
And he will work everything out in the end.

[DannyBoy]

Crystal Tears: Thanks I am glad you liked them! I really liked your song Judged its good.

~Run~

Run,
Run,
Run,

I am leaving now and fast,
Everything I remember is now in the past,
I knew this would never last,
I now have a new task,
Just shut up and dont ask,
Im gona run,

Thought it was the best thing,
Not just a little fling,
I am there when I hear that ring,
Pack it up,
Now run!

Running away,
Is the best news I have heard in days,
I am damn sure this is no faze,
But it might be a craze,
I am done,
Now I am just going to run,

No one would ever understand,
I was sick of all the commands,
Sick of all the boring bands,
Want to explore different lands,
No more girls with fake tans,
i just wanted to scream Damn,

Thought it was the best thing,
Not just a little fling,
I am there when I hear that ring,
Pack it up,
Now run!

Running away,
Is the best news I have heard in days,
I am damn sure this is no faze,
But it might be a craze,
I am done,
Now I am just going to run,

Days have gone by,
Wish I could fly.
I wont stop this till I die,
I swear there wont be a hear of a cry,
I know I haven't said bye,
But that would just be a big lie,

Thought it was the best thing,
Not just a little fling,
I am there when I hear that ring,
Pack it up,
Now run!

Running away,
Is the best news I have heard in days,
I am damn sure this is no faze,
But it might be a craze,
I am done,
Now I am just going to run,

I am running away from here,
It is the best news I have heard in so long,
You mad cause this no faze,
Damn right I am crazy for so long,
This run is worst than a maze,
I am now done,
I am going to run,
RUN!

[Saturos]

You know that a ballad is a musical poem, right? Here's a ballad that I wrote for a school project:

Ballad of Seasons

The harsh cold, and short days,
Of silent snow, and how it lays.
The solid ice of wintry freeze,
Makes your nose red, and then you sneeze.

The sun peeks through the cottony clouds,
Birds return and sing aloud.
Ice then melts, and tree buds sprout,
Streams then unfrozen, alive with trout.

Bees and butterflies flutter about,
Clouds break, and the sun is out
Spring showers are now more common,
Flowers unfold, and with beautiful cherry blossoms.

The world is alive, with evermore green,
And how it looks, oh so serene!
Thunderstorms rumble in the evening sky,
It flashes bright, then the mighty roar dies.

Days are getting cooler, with the bright autumn leaves,
Flowers have died, having despersed their seeds.
The birds have left, leaving only a feather,
It is a reminder of the bitter, cold weather...



How do you like it? By the way, I'm a boy. Can't a boy write a mad-piece of poetry like this?

[Crystal Tears]

Tawaiwai, all good. My likes Saturos, Mists and IloveX-TINA the best. Not to say the rest arn't good..
IloveX-TINA: Taiwai, thanx for the reply.

Return To Me

My heart pounds for you,
each and every time,
a reminder,
because you ain't there...

How could god be so cruel to me?
How could leave me?
I never knew what I had,
until now,
when your gone..
Come back to me!
please...

Chorus

All of the good times we had together,
how can I forget them,
still I look,
where you used to lie,
where you used to be,
you I thought you would always be...

End Chorus

You were my only friend,
you went away,
and never came back,
and now,
I lie down at night,
hoping and praying for you...

How could you leave me?
when I needed you most?
Still you linger,
your warmth still lies,
in my heart,
I will never see you again,
only in my dreams..

How would I love to take back the words,
that made you leave,
I'm on my knees..
Why did you leave me?

Chorus

You were my only friend,
you went away,
and never came back,
and now,
I lie down at night,
hoping and praying for you...

end Chorus

I gave my heart to you,
I loved you,
Return to me,
And let me see you,
out of my dreams,
let me hear you,
let me say sorry,
let me take back the words..
That made you leave....



Right yet another sad depressing song. Based on all the people and animals that I loved that left me. I hope you like..

[Darkmaster Kagemusha]

Reality Bites

Gaming is my reality,
Your reality is my game,
My life is in a state of duality,

The clock sounds a death knell,
It calls me from the land of dreams,
Into a world of living hell,

The pain of life,
Strikes me swiftly,
Through my heart like a knife,

This world is a jail,
An ancient prison,
That causes me to fail,

It shatters my hope,
And so I escape,
To a place I can cope,

Now I stand upon the heights,
Of the mountains of my world,
Because reality bites.

[DannyBoy]

Jenn that was good, most songs that are written are from experiances people go threw and thats what makes them so good. Darknaster I really like yours to. I can realate to that poem.
Well here is another song I wrote b/c I hate my moms b/f.

~Somethings Got to Give~


Something has to give,
you are out of control,
I feel like I am locked in a deep dark hole,
Just get the **** out and go!
It was supposed to be for two weeks,
Its been over and its hitting the peak,
you god damn freak!

Somethings got to give,
I need to live,
Your ruining my life,
You are worst than a poisonous bite,
Can someone turn on the light?
Then you can see that somethings got to give,

Damn long nights listening to your ****,
now its over and im throwing a fit,
now no more you,
There is nothing you can do,
I kicking you out,
no matter how long it takes,
No more breaks,
This should be a peice of cake,

Somethings got to give,
I need to live,
Your ruining my life,
You are worst than a poisonous bite,
Can someone turn on the light?
Then you can see that somethings got to give,

No weaking me,
You will never see,
You will run when its all done,
Im strong,
Your weak,
Im going to win,
You are nothing compared to me,
Im so much more,
And your a waste of time,

Somethings got to give,
I need to live,
Your ruining my life,
You are worst than a poisonous bite,
Can someone turn on the light?
Then you can see that somethings got to give,

[Razola]

Better Than You

I know that you're thinking
that you've got a crummy life
So much pain and suffering
Misery, conflict and strife
And you know what, my friend?
You are asbolutely right.

I'm...better than you...
Yes, I'm better than you.
No matter what you do
I'll always be better than you.

I've more friends than you
I've more money than you
I drive a better care than you
I've more clothes than you
And hey, I look better in them, too.

You might think that I'm a jerk
But sadly, that ain't the fact
You're just a whiney little brat.

I'm better than you.
Better than you.
Even if i was split in two
My left half would still be better than you.

I've got so much
You've got piddle
People adore me everywhere
While they care for you little

So don't be in denial
You know it's true
I'm better
than you

[Kris]

I wrote this morning and guess I just want to know what you think:

You

You say you do not love them
You say their in your past
You know that you enjoyed it
You know it went too fast

You try to ignore your mind
You try to ignore your heart
You fail and start to search
You no longer want to part

You search for the one you love
You hope he hasnt gone
You finally find him and go to smile
You find thats he's moved on

You walk away with a tear in your eye
You feel like you want to die
You dont realise that he's seen you leave
You dont see him start to cry

[Darkmaster Kagemusha]

Hate

They hate me,
They tear me down,
They don't see,
The reason I frown.

I'm torn up inside,
I hold back my tears,
In myself I confide,
All of my fears.

I lock myself away,
From all their hate,
And I know one day,
They will meet their fate.

Their voices are sweet,
Their words are like knives,
As I sink in my seat,
And listen to their lies.

They hate me,
And I hate them in return,
I cannot be free,
But I can make their souls burn.

[Psychic_Suzanne]

Hahaha, this one's stupid. I hate it. I spit upon it and grind it into little tiny bits.

Oh, ten Janis thorns and a hunting knife to anyone who can figure out which TV character this is based on.

Teacher

So frustrated, because I don't understand you
So tired, because I keep on trying to
So confused, because my mind keeps racing.
I am opening myself
Learning the ways of my enemies
And maybe someday
I'll know enough.

Alice in Wonderland?
She chases the rabbit,
But she doesn't want to eat him.
Why?

You smile crooked, and talk riddles
Like the Tesh. Big words,
Ones that I don't understand.
But I listen!
Why?

I respect you, since you are wise,
But you are nothing like I think you should be.
Brave, strong, and skilled--
yet you hate to kill.
You fight with words.
Why?

I don't understand you,
But I keep trying to.
Caged lions pacing.
Big books on a shelf.
Only someone else sees.
I've decided to stay.
Enough.

But why?

Comforts

I sat, lonely. My shift
Was over, but I knew
That my mind would drift
All over the road home.

Sitting in the booth,
I knew I was alone again.
I stood to face the truth,
And almost hit the stranger.

"Sorry," I said, keeping
My eyes down.
I wasn't sleeping
Well. You know the feeling.

"Are you all right?" He
Sounded so sincere
Like -the boy-'s poetry
Before it were about me.

I looked up, met
A manic smile and
Blue eyes set
In a laugh-lined face.

"No." It came out
like an explosion.
I -never- shout
So when did I start?

But instead of being
Shocked or still or
Politely fleeing,
He nods sagely.

"I'm sorry," I moan.
"What's the matter?"
Suddenly I'm not grown
I'm a little girl, weeping.

I stammer and begin
To tell him, choked,
Everything and then
He touches my cheek.

"Chin up, dear heart,"
He grins lopsidedly.
"I've just had to start
Life again as well."

And I fall into
His arms, weeping.
"What do I do?"
And he thinks...

And pauses...

And asks,
"Have you ever wanted
To see the universe?"



Ok, if you got the first one, you probably got the second. I know, they're not great. But -I- had fun.

BTW, I liked "Better Than You". And since I'm a puntuation freak, "You" didn't have enough puntuation and "Hate" had to much. :: braces for the wrath of the writers :: sorry, I'm not the best critic...

~Sunny

[Darkmaster Kagemusha]

I don't care about punctuation very much in my poetry--it's the words that really matter. Aaaanway, here's one I wrote after I took my Careers final today

The Angel of Death,
Bringer of darkness,
Taker of breath.

He takes the form
Of a heavenly demon,
His robes black and torn.

Red eyes burn,
Like blazing embers
As he says it's your turn.

He raises his glaive,
A gruesome blade,
Your soul he enslaves.

Ebony wings of fear,
Flaming eyes,
The Angel is near.

Blood is red,
Your lips turn blue,
The Angel of Death
Is coming for you.

[Psychic_Suzanne]

Based on a Robert Frost poem ("A Time to Talk"). I wrote it by accident (LOOO-ooong story, trust me) in English class.

A Time to Be Still

When a friend sits back and meets my eyes,
His, full of things that I have never known,
I don’t break the silence with some
Question that can wait, or rise
To pace, or find another thing to do.
No, not as there is a time to be shown
That sometimes, to silence you must succumb—
And into happy silence fall,
Listening to a siren call
From a universe that’s calling out to you.

[PancaKe]

Those poems are really cool! I swear, some of you guys write so great that they make me cry!!!! bleh!

~Mist

One Way Street

I tried to sit alone
Tried to talk to God
Tried to read my Bible like I should
Tried to think of camp
Tried to watch the box
Tried so hard to get you off my mind
Is this all right?

I dont know if I should be feeling guilty
Or if you should be feeling lucky
Whenever I'm not near you
Whenever I'm away
You the only thing on my mind to stay

Its like a one way street
On it my thoughts are walking
The tarred path leads to you
To your smile to your arms
To your open embrace

This is sickening me
Why am I thinking this?
My love is for Lord Jesus
And all I think about is you
Its really annoying me
Really cheesing me
Really not pleasing me
Even if it pleases you
I worry if
I should be thinking
Only of you
Because I dont want to be left behind
Left behind waiting
For you

But you mean the world to me
You mean the world to me
I cant get that out of my head
And I hope
Im not the only one
That the one way street is two
One path leads to me
The other leads to you

Bah that is so soppy!

Bah--we love you too.

Trying to increase my posting average--it's an uphill battle. Anyway, here's a song I wrote--I'm gonna make a tune for it later.

Beyond Belief

I don't think I know you
You don't seem from around
Not like me
Not with me
You're a total stranger
And when I stare at you
You don't stare at the ground
Not like me
So strangely
You meet my eyes and smile

Couragous
Most certainly
Outragious
Beyond belief
But how, but why, but when did you come here?

I don't think you're like us
You seem so free to move
Not like me
So closely
You resemble no one I know
And when you stand next to us
Your movements are so smooth
Not like me
Unlikely
That you're from anywhere near

Friendly
Most certainly
Endearing
Beyond belief
But why, but how, but when did you come here?

I think that I like you a bit
You're naive but so wise
Not like me
Completely
Can I go with you far away
You know I'll be good for it
Look me in the eyes
Not like me
Infinitely
Have you ever fallen in love?

You're so
You're far
Beyond belief...

[Mewtwo-D2]

So here's where the poetry corner is... This is actually a song I wrote for a character of mine, Thea Moonbeam. She could have had ultimate power in the multiverse, gave it up for love, but was betrayed and murdered by her lover.

Sweet As Death (Thea's Song)

Once you were singing,
Softly, sweetly
Singing in the brightest daylight
Only you, my love,
Could've sung so fair a tune.

Hours in the sunlight playing
Softly, sweetly
Knotting worries into chains of daisies
You, my love,
Could touch my soul.

Then I heard you,
Softly, sweetly,
Whispering the evil's words
You, my love,
Had sold your soul.

I saw you then,
Softly, sweetly,
Light before the darkness fleeing
Once my love,
But now no more.

Blackest night comes
Softly, sweetly
Treading on the lightest paws
No, my love,
Never coming any more.

Felt you touch me,
Softly, sweetly,
Darker than the moonlight shadows
Felt, my love,
You crush my heart.

Blood is flowing,
Softly, sweetly
Red as the cursed moon above
Held my love
As I lay dying.

Felt the darkness then surround me
Softly, sweetly
Like a friend.
But friends no more, when you my love
Traded your heart for something more.

Love was sweet, but sweeter still,
Softly, sweetly,
Came the lure of power.
So great it was, my love
That you gave your lovers life.

Now I slumber,
Softly, sweetly,
Somewhere between heaven and earth
Waiting, my love
For one last kiss forevermore.

[mistysakura]

WARNING: This poem is cliched, even for my usual standards. anyway, this is actually a song -- my first song that I actually put on paper -- and I have a really bad recording of it... I think I'll blame the tape recorder. Anyway, here goes... and if anyone could think of a title, that would be cool.

Untitled

Twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are...

Night
I glance up at the sky
Stars shine, sparkling bright
The lights
Tiny specks of diamonds
Far away, on a distant shore

I used to believe
There were mysteries behind
The veil of glitter, the curtain of unknown
But then I realized
Our world beneath the sky
Left no room for pretending, or imagining fantasies

I no longer believe in stars
I don't expect my wishes to come true
No one, nothing will be my guide
On the path I must tread alone

Fear
Of what everything will be
I'm feeling trapped in my little world
I gaze
Through the window at the stars
And I pray for assurance, that everything will be okay...

Quit it.
You're just a little child
Clinging onto nothing but blindness.
Someday,
A wind will throw you off the cliff
Falling into the deepest abyss
Too late to wake up then...

And that's how I learnt
I no longer believe in stars
I don't expect my wishes to come true
No one, nothing will be my guide
On the path I must tread alone
I no longer believe in stars...

[PancaKe]

Ada, that was very different. Like, it sounds as though you've lost all hope in anything beyond what you can physically see. Was that your .. wats the word... inspiration to write that?

Here's someting I wrote.

~Mist

24 / 7 Job

Following God
Is not a part time job
Or a casual position.
It's not something
you can retire from.
What about sick leave?
Holiday, extended leave?
Maternity, paternity leave?
They don't exist.
Following God
Is a 24/7 job
All day, every day
All your life.
So why hold off?
Now is the time to start the job!
In the end
The result is much better
than any pay check.
What price is put on eternal life?
