Forever, have I lost you?
You're fading from my sight.
Can you not see we're falling?
We're dying in the night.
My heart is yours, Forever,
I'll never turn away.
I'll wait for you to find me.
I'll try to make you stay.
You promised me, Forever,
To make our hearts as one.
Did you forget, Forever,
To tell me we were done?
Forever, will you hold me,
And sooth my heart to sleep?
Tell me again, Forever,
That I'm the one you'll keep.
My heart will beat, Forever,
Until you bid it rest.
I'll live for you, Forever.
I'll try to pass this test.
Forever, I feel empty,
My heart has told a lie.
Forever, can you promise
That you won't
A book with Grandpa's favorite quote
A poem that your boyfriend wrote
Your little cousin's old toy boat
They're all disposable.
A picture of a long lost friend
A letter you forgot to send
The broken heart you couldn't mend
They're all disposable.
A notebook from your freshman year
With notes from friends you once held dear
A porcelain doll you used to fear
They're all disposable.
The lies I'm burning to confess
The love I'm yearning to caress
The tears I constantly repress
Am I disposable?
The hollow hopes that didn't last
The shining dreams that died so fast
The constant fear of things long past
Am I disposable?
A hopeles
Silently crying the tears of regret
While dancing with shadows on white painted walls
Screaming at echoes of porcelain dreams
Praying that nightmares will soon hear my calls
Stripping off layers and masks of deceit
Exposing the black and white truth in my lies
Tattooing the pain on my tattered, black soul
Sewing my lips shut to silence my cries
Acidic disease running fresh through my veins
Igniting the fire that flows through my heart
again, I know it's not finished, but now I might just have the inspiration to finish it...

Literature
Dreaming Nightmares
Choking on my shapeless thoughts
Fading in my formless dreams
Lying in my doomed reflection
Finding nothing as it seems.
Drowning in the bloody battle
Falling to a faithless place
Running into open arms
Weeping for a fallen grace.
Dying for a taste of life
Watching angels die for love
Fighting those that hold me down
Gasping for the air above.
Failing those I loved the most
Hoping for a second chance
Vanishing into the darkness
Disappearing at a glance.
Ending things that fate began
Mourning those that left me
Crying in my restless sleep
Wanting things that can not be.
Waking in this mortal realm
Seeing past this hopeless
Blood spilled and splattered
while dreams are shattered
and hopes fly away in the night.
The white rug, stained,
with no one to blame
but the person that's holding the knife.
The blood drips down
'till it spills on the ground
where it simply begins to pool.
The drops fall like tears
cried over the years
'till my soul was hardened and numb.
I drop to the floor
soon I'll be no more
for my death is nearly complete.
So goodbye, it's the end,
maybe we'll meet again
if you visit my personal hell.
She paints a perfect picture,
She tells a flawless lie,
She sings a song of beauty,
A haunting lullaby.
Her lullaby will sooth you,
Her song will give you wings,
Her mournful voice will trap you,
Every time she sings.
Her song is one of sorrow,
A portrait of her life,
And those who hear are captured,
Haunted by her strife.
Her song will leave you crying,
She'll wipe away your tears,
But compassion is a falsehood,
Created over years.
Her song will penetrate you,
A knife straight through your heart,
The tune will plague your footsteps,
A seductive work of art.
Her song is one of anguish,
An image of your fate,
But you won'
Porcelain doll with tangled hair,
People pass or stop and stare,
Her cotton clothes are ripped and torn,
Her parents regret the day she was born,
Her plastic heart has melted down,
Her stunning smile, a perfect frown,
Her shining future, a blackened road,
Her flowing words, a fucked up code.
Once glowing eyes, now dark and dead,
And voices scream inside her head,
A falling rain of acid tears,
Mirrors reflecting all her fears,
A fire raging through her veins,
Drugs to reduce all her pains,
Her porcelain skin, now scarred and bruised,
Her staggering beauty, now gone and used.
A foreign beauty, now buried alone,
A cryptic place
Mirror, Mirror,
lie to me
and show me what
I want to see,
a world untouched,
un-harmed by love,
a world not cursed,
that soars above,
a world of warmth,
not cold as ice,
a world where hearts break once,
not twice.
Mirror, Mirror,
lie to me
and show me what
I wish to see,
a moonlit night,
not pouring rain,
tears cried for joy,
not cried for pain,
a peaceful life,
a brand-new slate,
a world where love
can't turn to hate.
Mirror, Mirror,
lie to me
and show me what
I hope to see,
a world where pain
cannot occur,
where tears don't make
my vision blur,
where happiness
can't drag me down,
and love won't try
to make
We all know what nothing means.
When someone asks you what's wrong,
you say nothing.
It's a plain, simple, expected answer.
But why is it that they believe you?
Is it that they're to blind to see?
Or is it that they just don't care.
Well, I know what nothing is.
Nothing is a blackness that
waits like a bird of prey to
swoop down and ensnare you.
Nothing is a raging twister that
destroys everything in its path
and leaves only devastation behind.
Nothing is a secret hidden from
all eyes and ears but those
of the people that it haunts.
So why is it that when I tell them nothing is wrong,
they don't help?
Do they not know what
I turned my back
and someone stabbed me.
I looked away
and someone raped me.
I trusted
and someone betrayed me.
I hoped
and someone killed me.
I walked blind
and someone misled me.
I wanted death
and life pursued me.
I lived in hell
while heaven evaded me.
I was scared
so someone destroyed me.
I dreamed
and someone turned them to nightmares.
I tried
and someone caused me to fail.
I cried
and someone relished it.
I wished
and someone stole my innocence.
I loved
and someone rejected me.
I suffered
and someone took pleasure.
I died
and no one was there.
The puzzle's peices
just don't fit,
My mirror shows things
that scare me,
A girl in black,
Eyes red from tears,
My mirror lies,
These things can't be.
She stares back from
her mirror world,
Touching the glass
that draws the line,
Her mirror world
looks just the same,
But those tears she cries
just can't be mine.
Her room is dark,
no light or sound,
The mirror's lies
invade my mind,
My moonlit sky
is veiled by darkness,
My world and hers
can't be combined.
I'm screaming but
I hear no sound,
My eyes can see
right through her,
Her hopelessness,
her pain and fear,
flow through her veins
to kill her.
Her mirror worl
They say that they love you,
or that they want you to trust them,
but you know that they lie.
They just use you.
Then they say it again.
I love you.
Trust me.
Well,
if this is love,
then they were right.
It burns worse than the flames of hell
and cuts better than any blade.
But what if that's not love?
What if love is what I feel when I hear your voice?
Will it still hurt?
Can I trust you?
Trust,
there's a misleading word.
You can trust someone with a secret,
but that only means that they'll tell people for you,
or wisper it when you're not looking.
But for some reason,
I trust you.
Not the kind of trust that I know,

Hold a knife
to my throat
they all think that it's a joke
but it's not
this is real
all the feelings they can't feel
are all kept
down inside
I just wish that I could hide
from the fear
and the pain
all is lost, nothing to gain.
Hold a gun
to my head
I just wish that I was dead
but I'm not
I survive
I don't know why I'm alive
but now I
have the gun
looks like I have finally won
so I'll stop
it today
pull the trigger, no delay.
Wrap a rope
round my neck
wanna die so what the heck?
No one knows
no one cares
either that or no one dares
to say what's
on their mind
I just wish that I could find
any way
to stay the
Broken spirit wandering
through out the halls of gray.
And knowing that she'll see them now
through each and every day.
She tried to fight the puppet strings
she tried to get away,
but tears of grief and pain and fear
would always block her way.
Tears of pain and grief were cried
for loved ones never known.
And tears of fear from all the years of
torture never shown.
The walls began to close her in
to block any escape.
She screamed and shouted endlessly
with words that had no shape.
She shouted for a helping hand
someone to lift her out.
But no one heard her piercing screams
no one could see her doubt.
A voice unheard that
Please help me save her,
She's drifting away,
Her time is coming,
She waits for the day.
I can't make her see me,
She seems not to hear,
She can't feel me hold her,
She's drawing so near.
She's crying and helpless,
So close to the edge,
Seeing no one to help her,
To death she will pledge.
She's dying inside here,
We must get her out,
But she won't let me help her,
She's living in doubt.
She's screaming in silence,
Of her fear and her pain,
She thinks no one hears her,
That she screams in vain.
She seems fine at first glance,
But look in her eyes,
Her world is revealed there,
You'll see through her lies.
She watches lif
Porcelain doll with tangled hair,

Her parents regret the day she was born,

Her shining future, a blackened road,
Her flowing words, a fucked up code.

So I'm sure you're all tired of hearing me complain about plagiarism and how hurtful and wrong it is - and I promise this will be my last rant.
There is truely nothing that I can do without a small army to prevent people from stealing and taking credit for my work. I've had people publish my work, post it to their blogs as their own to impress their friends, and even post to other artist websites to get reviews and praise. I suppose most people don't understand why that hurts, but every single thing that I wrote and posted to this site had a personal story behind it and usually a lot of pain. These poems are my bleeding heart on paper, an
Hey guys,
I wanted to share this little quote with all of you because it moved me and really made me think. It was part of a letter written by one of my advisers here at college.
"Poetry is what stirs your fundamental being. It is you at your most imaginative. It is the passion to prevail and excel. It is the motive force behind you. Poetry is the creation of a life and mind: a life lived purposefully and purposely created by you, though you don't always understand the creation as it unfolds. It is the form you make for the content and that which impels you to imagine the form. So at times like this, I hope you will believe that you ar
Today, is a good day.
Aside from things going well with school (turning in some final projects, getting ready for the summer), I recieved word today that my poem "Death's Lullaby" has been fully restored! DeviantArt and I were able to work together to resolve the mistake! The deviation has been fully restored with the original copyright, comments, and faves! Thank god for small miracles, right?
Thanks to all of you who offered your comforting words when this was all going down. They meant a lot to me.
On another note... been starting to write a little bit again! Nothing solid on paper or anything... but random poetic lines are running
Your poems are extremely touching. I'm impressed by the way all your emotions are portrayed through writing. When I feel depressed I also write, yet I don't post it as I feel it's somewhat private, and of course not of the same worth as yours!! I feel a lot of respect for you, as I feel the same way you do, yet I never seem to find the words to explain myself. Even if I did, I don't think I would have the courage to let the whole world see my feelings. You're works are truly incredible, and I do hope you keep posting some more. Best of luck!
Hi there :3! Loved your poems with all my heart<3! I'll just keep in watch and look from afar >.<....good luck and keep writting the good poems, We'll be yearning and cheering for you ^0^!
