Thread: write a poem that expresses your thoughts and feelings

Deepest cuts never fade,
Empty, alone, in the dark,
fallen within my grave.

Promises mean nothing,
Your words were lies,
Love dies, just like everything.

Screaming on the inside,
Die, die, die.

~

Between the trees
trembling lips
withered leaves
and broken sticks
cover skeletal forms
half buried
your last breath
long exhaled
forgotten
they will
forget you

i am so full
who would have thought
that today
even on this glorious day
i might finally
cook myself a legit meal


potatoes
mashed
vegetables
of so many colours
and the meat
in all it's meatlyness
all makes for a full dude
and a very very cool dude

the end

A heart
i find my inspiration
while stumbling through the dark
a sadness, overwhelming
i reply, in haste remark
"it just sits
and seeps
and lies evermore"
"oh what is that?"
I sit taciturn
though weeping at the core.

Not cotton blankets nor soft quilts adorned in muted pattern,
Not even a favorite jacket worn by years of use,
No amount of stuffed animals sewn with affected smiles,
Neither warm hands nor cool nights filled with smoky laughter,
Never tinkling lullabies nor soothing mugs of tea,
No beds of bright daises or pillows of soft grass,
Not rainy days or the smell of old books;
Not even these can console me from the loss of you.

water drips from the roof of my mind
My memories take refuge in my hiding place
where did all the love go?
I will never know
My memories are mine to know
Perhaps necessary to grow

A river flowing
never ending
I sit and watch
confused and amazed
watching the souls rush downstream
I sat laughing
I thought about my life
it seemed meaningless
I could care less

The world moves so fast
So much life, so many things happening
Yet here I am in my own little nest
So quiet and relaxing
I want to know what is going on in this world
yet I close my eyes and drift into an entirely different universe.

She sat and stared and plots her game
We undertake, with shared conditions
Can feel her yearning and feel her pain
But love is absent , see our shame
My heart is frozen
Like my tongue
I know just what i'm running from.

step after step after mind numbing venture
this breath is too heavy, it blots my escape
some how i have come to accept this detention
internal reflection: what the numbleg still chase

explosion of awesome~

The day was short
I talk with sheep
Tryna do the savior's work
Muscles heavy , body numbs
It's time to close my eyes and go to sleep

I was alone when he found me,
broken and bleeding

I fought to stay alive,
drowning in my mistakes

The light that shone so brightly,
nearly blinded me

Now I wait for the day,
when I can truly say 'I'll stay'.

I dream to be lucid
oh the irony..
a feeling so elusive
yet still inspires me

You and I, Earth and Sky.
I sought to come near,
but you didn't wanna hear it.
I knocked on the cloud,
And you kicked me down.

I let you rest.
I wished to come back.
Then someone said,
you're nothing but a lie.

I chased you away,
claiming you are not real.
Now I sit all alone,
waiting for a sign.
But I hear none.
So I fly trough my days,
all alone.

So now I try to come near,
but you only give me a headacke.
I try to call,
but you can't hear my cry.
I won't give up,
untill I see you smile and hold my hand.

-Poem of my inner world, the world I got kicked out of by Yranul(My sub-c?)-

I saw you pass me by,
my faint heart, beated fast.
I came to you, with a fragile heart.
You slit my throath, with no second thought.

You left, without a goodbye,
I was lying down, wishing to see you again.
My bleeding body, no pain endured,
my heart was yours, there was no doupt about it.

I awaited your return, but you wouldn't show.
I strayed, guided by my faint heart,
I fell into a grip, of a angel with a evil heart.
I couldn't see, I was blinded by love,
I spent my days, holding her hand.

Then you came, from the depts of hell
You cried in my arms, such a fragile being.
I held a demon in my hands, and I smiled,
My heart beated faster, and I wanted it to last forever.

We became close, in a flash.
I couldn't stand, not seeing you,
I had a secret crush, oh what a love demise.
You held my hand, trough heaven and hell,
I held yours, wishing you were mine.

The angel held her strings around my neck,
I was caged, I wished to be closer to you,
But my faint heart wouldn't let it.
I held her hand, with a pure heart,
I didn't want to hurt, it was never my goal.

She kept her strings,
till she made a mistake.
She lost a piece of her heart,
Strayed away,
She left me in the dark,
Down there, all alone.

You found me in the dark,
You were my rescue.
A demon saved me from an angel,
Oh what a irony that was.
My heart beat faster, glad you were there
You took the final step,
You lit the fireworks in my heart.
A kiss of an angel, the kiss of salvation,
You made me yours, I was struck.

You corrupted my heart,
I cleansed yours.
We are one,
That is a fact.

So hold my hand,
Like I hold yours,
Let us walk on this road together,
Forever in love.

You are my love,
The one and only,
The truest of my feelings,
Are the ones for you,
So hold my hand,
Let us walk together,
Eternally.

-For that special someone <3-

I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
Nothin' special 'bout me motherfucker!
I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
When I go to the clubs I wait in line motherfucker!
I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
I got 600 dollars in the bank motherfucker!
I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
And my sexual performances are average!

I work in customer service for a phone company
I make 12 bucks an hour but that's all I need
I live in a small apartment on a quiet street
I don't go out too much, I like to watch TV
I can't afford a car, I use public trans-portation
I don't mind, I read til' I reach my destination!
Sometimes a newspaper, sometimes a book
The amount of money I save, that shit is off the hook!

And I'm not very good with the women
I'm a pretty shy person and I'm average lookin'
Last time I had sex was in 2003
And I'm ashamed to admit, but it wasn't free!

I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
I get nervous in social situations motherfucker!
I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
I get constipated once a month motherfucker!
I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
And I make pretty good spaghetti sauce motherfucker!
I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
And I get scared when I go see the dentist!

I'm the Pauly Shaw of everyday life
Easily forgettable, and I'm not very liked
I have an According to Jim personality
I'm as entertaining as a fuckin' STD

If you wanna mess with me I think you probably can
Because I'm not confident, and I'm weak for a man
I'll just roll up in a ball while you kick me in the back
Yeah honestly I probably won't fight back

And I don't have many friends that would back me up
My friend Steve would, but he doesn't look very tough

If you rarely get laid put your hands up!
If you're not well paid put your hands up!
If you're not well paid put your hands up!
If you got a pet cat put your hands up!
And if you got a bad back put your hands up!

I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
My parents, are really nice people motherfucker!
I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
I'm somewhat afraid of heights motherfucker!
I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
I like the show Grey's Anatomy motherfucker!
I'm just a regular everyday normal guy
And I'm pretty good at makin' paper planes!

We were always looking for it, it was always us, we made the game to chase ourselves without ever looking back.

empty cup- nothing in
try to fill
empty pitcher- nothing in
maybe wait for rain
set on window sill
too narrow, glass shatters
strewn amongst the pavement
I'll get another tomorrow

genuineness and egotism cannot co-exist
personal reflection and premature pride
eating my soul from the inside
to cure this disease I will persist
stay true to life, sacrifice, resist.

transparent, silent
filled with energy just like
the air in winter.

Echoes of the past, binding me down
I stand up, I hear a whisper
It's calling my name.

I break away the chains, unbind the sorrow deep within
I hear the screams, a sword aimed at me
I stand my ground, my will is low
I'm not moving away, but I can't fight like before.

The fight and agony await, it's not what I want.
I see the glowing river od blood, you at the middle of it
You're screaming my name, what have I done?

You keep on attacking me but I hold no grudge
What did I do, to make you feel like that?
Where did all the agony come from
Let me feel what lies beneat, let me touch you with a hand of love.

If I ever thought anything about you, it was to be near you.
My hands mean no harm, let me near,
My soul is filled with sorrow, let us wash it away.
Let us work together to see the sun shine tomorrow.

I am here...

like a cold breeze in the hot weather

I am here for you...

So let me get near
let me near to wash away all your pain.
You are me, yet you hide from me
Don't be afraid to call, the voice that is you.

One moment I
am thinking about one thing
about one thing
about one thing
about another thing
Was this related to the last thing?
There was a last thing?
What's for dinner? What is it like to die?
Why am I so fragmented. I am in one piece. Is this glue really strong enough?
Why do I think when I question? I already know every answer. I just need to pick the right folder to pull it out of.

Sometimes it starts where I feel full of euphoria and at peace with everything, that life is a beautiful experience.
Why do I delude myself with questions? What is it like to die? What's for dinner?
What was that last thing?
It was another thing
about one thing
One moment I was thinking, the next I was answering, the next I was questioning my answer, the next I was answering my question, which I questioned,

Take a step back

The answers are all here.

(sorry if that's stupid dumb I just felt like stream of consciousness typing)

Millions starve, line the streets of open graves.
And we pretend we can't hear their screams....

I wrote this at 3:08AM while I was in bed; I like writing things down when they go through my mind, because "nighttime" me says things very differently than daytime me.

I lay in bed,
Tossing; Turning.
Mind is racing,
Thoughts are burning
holes in my head.

Sleep is calling.
Out I grasp
to grab it,
but alas,
there's darkness falling
faster than I can pass
time, awaiting dreams
to mask my sadness
at last.
