    Prince of Heartaches
    by â—Š Atomic â—Š

    How often do you dream,
    A prince charming of your own.
    One who keeps you close to heart,
    So you'll never feel alone?

    The perfect man from the books,
    A shining armor and white horse too.
    One who never loved before,
    Until the day he met you.

    A touch from him made you shiver,
    Kissing him made you swoon.
    Together your hearts unite,
    Under the full yellow moon.

    With him by your side,
    You rode off into the sunset.
    Dreaming of a happy ending,
    To live life with no regrets.

    How often do you wake up,
    Realization hits you fast.
    True love doesn't have an ending,
    Because it was meant to last.

    What happened to those princes,
    From movies and fairy tales.
    Do they not exists at all,
    Or have they rung their wedding bells?

    Where is your prince charming?
    He's no where to be found.
    Has he gotten lost on the way here,
    Has he lost his golden crown?

    You found yours long ago,
    But he broke your fragile heart.
    He decolorized it,
    To the deepest blackest dark.

    His reasons for betrayal,
    Shall remain forever unknown.
    But I think you know it in your soul,
    He did it to save his own.

    What Leads To The Road Ahead? By: ItalianStallion

    I asked myself as I went to bed
    What leads to the road ahead?
    I thought all night long
    Even listened to a few songs

    Days came
    Days went
    So I thought I better get some sleep
    While I was a sleep I had a dream
    It gave me a major leap
    With this question that lingered in my head

    I thought all night
    Even listened to a few songs
    Then it came to me
    There is no answer

    I was up for weeks
    Lost lots of sleep
    But in the end
    I knew the answer to the question that lingered in my head

    If I Give Myself To You By: ItalianStallion

    If I give myself to you
    will you cherish what I say and do
    will you suffer my tears
    and all my darkest moods
    can I trust you to be true
    If I give myself to you

    If I lay my body in your bed
    will you promise me you'll never forget
    when the bed is broken
    and the words have all been said
    will you love through and through
    If I give myself to you

    If I show you all of me
    will you turn away
    If you see me start to bleed
    theres nothing in this world
    that I would rather be
    than naked here before you

    If I leave my heart in your hands
    will you let me stand where I will stand
    will I lose my power
    when I fall to love some girl
    like so many of us do
    If I give myself to you

    If I show you all of me
    will you turn away
    If you see me start to bleed
    theres nothing in this world
    that I would rather be
    than naked here before you

    If I leave my heart in your hands
    will you let me stand where I will stand
    will you feel the power
    will you love me as I am
    will you feel the way I do
    If I give myself to you

    ~This is actually a song I wrote~

    ENOUGH

    Enough is enough
    I won't take any more
    you don't want a wife
    you want a whore
    go right ahead
    do as you please
    don't be surprised
    when I ask you to leave
    I've forgiven you before
    this time I refuse
    my heart's grown weary
    of being abused
    I won't live my life
    watching your every move
    I'd rather be alone
    than worry about you
    I truly pray you find
    whatever it is you seek
    now I bid you good-bye
    and shake the dust from my feet.

    WANTING YOU AGAIN

    Do you know
    the longing I feel
    seeing you
    yet forbidden
    to touch your dark hair
    or taste your delicious kiss
    I am overwhelmed
    with desire
    from the very sight of you
    your imminent presence
    inflames me
    taking me back
    to the last time
    in your arms
    the hours we shared together
    in infinite amorous pleasure
    the ecstasy of it all
    feeling your skin
    on my own
    your tongue
    playing music
    on my soul
    our bodies together as one
    never wanting it to end
    but knowing too soon
    it would come to a close
    and I'd be right here
    wanting you again.

    The Neon Sign That Burns Across My Forehead.

    My rampant ways will try to cover these mistakes,
    but neon confessions seep through the blacks and greys.
    And if a thousand hoodies can't hide my broken face tonight,
    well, you'll be seeing it on those brightened yellow wanted signs.

    Setting out into the darkness, with no distinguishing factors
    except for my bright and flashing forehead that they're after.
    They know these words by heart, can be read from miles away..
    I'm starting to think I'd be safer in the middle of the day.

    But screw my nonchalant ways, I'm making myself known.
    Running through empty parks has become my home.
    They'll trail me with the neon fluids I leave behind,
    I'll make it so damn easy for them to find.

    And if I've made it so obvious what I've set out to do,
    I hope this burning cursive spits holes right through you.
    Authority can suck on the poison racing through my veins,
    press their fangs into death, till their eyes bleed out hot pink brains.

    Inspired By The Mysterious Shadows On My Wall

    So, I was walking down this really dark street one day,
    with the sh#ttiest music, but my head was banging away.
    I almost didn't notice the sword at my throat..
    one more step and that purple skeleton would've cut me open.

    Well it must have been my lucky 364th second,
    because the notorious pink shark came and saved me from the weapon
    he tore at the flesh of the raw and bare skeleton..
    and if you didn't see the irony in that, therapy is just a suggestion.

    As I slide past the stench of burning pink shark,
    I follow some suicidal hooker into the dark.
    She pulls out a leather whip with the pointiest tip,
    and I made the mistake of running from the only action I've seen in a bit.

    As I was frantically stumbling down neon hills,
    my foot landed on something entirely unreal;
    a man laying down on his back, looking at the stars..
    I proclaimed, "what a crazy mother f#cker you are."

    I continue on my parade with flamingos not far behind.
    Oh, how their pink wings seemed so happy to be in flight.
    They give me a slight smile, but quickly turn away.
    I guess they didn't want to see me running into the wall that just happened to be in my way *shrugs*

    I quickly recover from a short concussion break,
    There seems to be at least on of those on every trip I make.
    The white dog with starry eyes motions for me to come here,
    then sticks a wet Willy right in my ear.

    He must think he's so clever.

    I shove past him and stumble my way up the stairs,
    thinking my journey would end right then and there.
    Oh boy how I was wrong, I must not have seen
    the stoned monkey on my bedroom wall staring back at me.

    As i walked in the room
    laying on her bed
    completely still, no longer alive
    i could feel the stillness
    right when i walked in
    screaming in the soul
    this cant be happening
    but knowing it was true
    having to say goodbye
    completely still, no longer alive

    now flying from above
    she is watching down on me
    the only way she could

    Wrote this one just now...

    "In the Shade of Her Image"

    Enclosed in my ashes
    I stand with no soul.
    A heart without color
    shall never be whole.

    Darkened beneath me
    the ground, as the sky.
    Layer upon layer.
    Lie upon lie.

    My grieved heart does wilt.
    "Her memory has gone"
    Myself and the truth
    suppressed thus as one.

    In the Shade of her image
    in the twilight of love,
    my sanity, bewinged,
    roams astray, far above.

    The hatred within,
    cursed with its touch.
    My will, long since weakened,
    withstood not so much.

    The remains of myself
    put to the test.
    The blade in her body
    forever shall rest.

    Another one I just finished

    "The Wind that tell"

    Last spring the wind did lightly blow
    beneath horizons left aglow,
    A silent breath out of the east
    brought me tidings ere it ceased.

    Through the leaves it told the tale
    of things that are that soon shall fail.
    "Thy home shall not forever last"
    Said it to me before it passed.

    T`was so I saw the end of such
    as I have come to treasure much,
    by waning moon and rising sun
    it dawned on me what must be done

    I had to leave, for loth I was
    to witness such a bitter loss,
    and with the roaming birds above
    did I too leave that which I love

    I wandered far, and found the sea,
    as birds of passage beckoned me.
    and by the beach was laid a boat,
    by some strange chance there left afloat.

    I entered it, though torn in two
    I set my sail, turned `round, and threw
    my final glance upon the coast
    that ever I did treasure most.

    Then I fell into a dream,
    in which I saw a single gleam,
    that clearly shone upon a shore
    and then I was asleep no more.

    Before me was a land, and lo!
    upon it wandered to and fro,
    a blear-eyed man, bent with time,
    the wisdom in his eyes, sublime.

    I set my boat ashore, and said,
    "Hello, old man", he raised his head,
    and turned around and spoke to me,
    "How blind of you to cross the sea"

    Enlighted by the dawning sky
    his tired eyes caught mine, and I,
    I saw his fate, alike to mine
    and felt our very souls entwine.

    For within this man was laid a truth
    that he too learned through flaws of youth,
    and thus could teach to me this day,
    when I did sail my boat astray.

    "Do not wilt when life does change,
    and see what's fair 'tween known and strange.
    Do never take too lightly on
    such as grows when all has gone."

    Thus having spoke, the old man sighed,
    and with the turning of the tide,
    Within my boat he set his feet,
    to sail, and I felt bittersweet.

    For though the truth I learned was great,
    I grieved to know my lonely fate
    Bound to stray upon this shore,
    to see my homeland nevermore.

    Bulldozed Regrets - You Knew You Were Wrong

    When the last drop fell
    From the many-rained sky,
    And the last tear fell
    From your over-cried eyes,
    I was still standing there,
    Heart pounding too long
    Waiting for the moment
    You knew that you were wrong.

    My mind had crumbled
    My body fell, too.
    But my soul stayed waiting
    Hopelessly for you.
    My love was such a burden
    Because I knew yours was gone.
    Though impossible, I wished
    You knew that you were wrong.

    I had already waited forever,
    But still had eternity to go.
    I stood there, looking helpless
    And more hopeless than you know.
    Yet you looked into my eyes
    And saw that my will carried on,
    And with the choices that you had made,
    You knew that you were wrong.

    Foolish

    Keep your hand upon the gun
    You're the only one
    Who can pull this trigger
    Now, go figure
    That the gun's against your head
    Once again it's said
    Your only enemy's yourself
    You're bad for your own health
    Yet you take another breath
    One step closer to your death
    You say another word
    Can you guarantee it's heard
    By the others in this "world"
    This hell hate has unfurled
    So clever with your wit
    But I'm so sick of it
    Nothing is meaningful that you say
    You say it anyway

    I want to pull away the gun
    Keep you from being another one
    Of those fools that throws life away
    Suicide is not a word of play
    But it's the word of choice for what you do
    And what you're doing with me & you.
    If you're going to die, do it now
    Before I can stop you somehow
    You're life is slowly coming to a halt
    But it's faster than I can shout
    You know I love you, but now I can't see you live
    You're only a fool with nothing left to give
    You pull the trigger, and hit the floor
    Not an angel in my eyes anymore.
    I'll rest in peace because you are dead.
    Upon your broken body, I lay my head.
    Nothing fixed, but something gained
    All because of the day it rained.

    "Last First Kiss"

    Never in my life,
    Had I felt as good as this
    it was a love short lived,
    Which ill forever miss.

    For a moment in time
    The world had stopped moving
    I was caught in the best
    What then, was I proving?

    It was all so cliche,
    How fast he had my heart,
    But things dont last forever
    How soon, it was torn apart.

    I just dont understand what happened
    It seemed so perfect, or so I thought,
    We kissed that night ,
    It just seemed so right,
    To me, it really meant a lot.

    After that night, I waited so long
    To hear his voice once more,
    But he avoided me, and forgot I could feel
    It was his last walk out of my door.

    When we used to hang out,
    Hed tell me how shy I would be
    And to just say what I was feeling inside
    But its not me, its him
    That needs to grow up and see
    That his silence just makes me cry

    I just want him to say, why he left me this way
    Without a single word of goodbye
    His truthful words would have caused hurt feelings
    But his silence hurts more than a lie.

    I just long for the day to see him again
    To show him the hurt hes endured to my soul
    To make him realize, what hes done to my heart
    The piece ill never get back, which he stole.

    When I see him around I Hope he realizes
    He lost the best thing he could have had,
    But I want him so much,
    despite how he broke my heart,
    for eternity, ill forever be sad.

    But I wont say a word
    I will just let him slip away
    What I thought I had, I have lost
    Hes gone from my life,
    Its something Ill forever miss
    Ill always remember him.
    And our Last, first kiss.

    " Reckless Emotion "

    At the edge with no grasp,
    Its inevitable Ill fall
    Deeper emotionally,
    Then ever thought at all.

    Ive crashed into my thoughts, defenseless against pain I cannot prevent.
    You're killing me softly
    With feelings that Ive always meant

    I have a reckless emotion
    But you intimidate my actions
    A captivating feeling,
    Nothing, but mere distractions.

    My voice is broken,
    As words seem impossible to say,
    Your enticing glances
    Are what makes a better day.

    It isnt just your stare,
    Nor the thought of what love could be,
    But the feelings that you make me feel,
    Right here right now,
    Its just you, being here with me.

    Ripped from your side
    Moments together
    Decided like the Tide

    The outside world
    Everyone else
    Telling us when
    We can build our house

    Stand tall in front
    We should tell them all
    Together we want
    And we will never fall

    Who cares what fools think
    Or if they don't like it
    It's us and our kids
    Under this blanket

    Then the rules set in
    The courts must begin
    We cant do it now
    For we would live in sin

    God knows were together
    Our paths he has planted
    He's making us wait
    So nothings for granted

    This chore we accept and
    Walk in his way
    But please god please
    Marry us one day

    The Elegy of the Lovers
    by HansRik

    I cannot say in words how much I've loved
    For words help not t'express the lover's wish.
    Canst thou not see the pain of being unloved?
    Or more the languid dolence we anguish?

    Now I have lost yon opportunity,
    The fire of love has burned this heart of mine
    Crying, waning, yonder atrocities
    Committed for love, for this thought of thine.

    But I shall make myself an oak that stands
    Upon thy doors and howls thy name fore'er.
    And nevermore this pain will understand,
    The love I have for thee, my dear girl.

    The hills that sing and dream about thy love
    Think not that they shall be eroded, yea,
    The willows chant their elegy forgone,
    And rot in fetid, rancid ideals.

    And walkest thou in vainest thoughts and lies,
    Laughing at the trees and hills that, for you, died.
    Waiting for mine heart to expire its last sighs.

    How beautiful thou seem'st outside,
    The sun is but a phantom by thy side.

    But nay!

    Thy soul is cruel and cold, like the darkest night.

    Lies
    By Sarah

    He broke my heart
    I longed to see him
    But he never came
    I waited and waited
    Nothing ever happened
    It felt like I cried forever
    He used to be The One
    Now i just don't know
    Is it worth it
    All the pain I went through
    Or is it just easier
    Not to love and not to care
    I still wonder what could have happened
    If he decided to come back
    Would it be the year
    He fell in love with me
    I'll never find out
    If only I saw him
    Just seeing his face
    One more time
    See him smile at me
    Hear his voice again
    Any word would do
    Even if it was goodbye
    But no, I didn't even get that
    He was gone and never heard from
    He promised he would come back
    He lied to me
    All I wanted was the truth
    He built me up
    For the biggest fall ever
    He doesn't care and never has
    I used to believe him
    Now I don't know what is
    True or if it's always been
    Lies

    In My Dreams
    By Sarah

    I fall asleep
    I start to dream
    My thoughts are deep

    I see him there
    He walks over to me
    He runs his fingers through my hair

    He looks into my eyes
    I look back into his
    My heart flies

    He smiles at me
    And kisses my cheek
    I'm flilled with glee

    He takes my hand
    We begin to walk
    We hear music from a distant band

    It's beginning to become light
    Our time together is almost over
    I'm filled with fright

    He smiles and says goodbye
    He walks away from me
    I begin to cry

    Our time together is done
    It's over for me
    That's is for all the fun

    I'm now awake
    Tears are rolling down my face
    I begin to shake

    It's over now
    I'll get over this dream
    I just don't now how

    Good Evening Doctor...
    by †Anthony†

    Screaming for help,
    But no breath to scream.
    I'm praying to wake up,
    From this hellish nightmare dream.

    The calls of the Doctor,
    With his torture chair of doom,
    Closing in on me,
    AS this danger slowly looms.

    Running from the pain,
    The pain that comes from him.
    I don't know where I am,
    Am I to sink, Or to swim.

    Confusion all around,
    Makes me wonder if it's real.
    But my doubts are quickly gone,
    As my blood he tries to steal.

    Cutting me with tools,
    That spin with natural ease.
    I'm begging for his mercy,
    Begging, pleading on my knees.

    With the blood in the air from
    The slash of his knife,
    I woke up in a sweat,
    When, in my dream, I lost my life.

    The Vile Of My Heart
    by †Anthony†

    I wait for you to turn around,
    A wait that lasts a thousand years.
    What keeps you from coming to me?
    Could it be your silly fears?

    The world around us changes,
    As you slowly walk away.
    I guess I'm the dumb one,
    Who still waits everyday.

    I wished to pour my heart,
    Into a vile for you to wear.
    I did it and it worked,
    But you couldn't get it, you weren't there.

    I've carried your emotions,
    On my back with my own,
    But now I have to drop them,
    Cause I can't do this all alone.

    The times you said you loved me,
    Were all just one big lie.
    As you keep on walking,
    It makes me want to die.

    You sent back one of your minions,
    To make your exit just complete.
    He took the vile of my heart,
    And smashed it at my feet.

    Home - Confessions of a Broken Heart

    I've learned home isn't a building or structure,
    Or a place to hang your hat.
    It isn't numbers that make up an address,
    Or anything to do with a welcome mat.

    I've learned home isn't a location,
    Or place made to lay your head.
    It isn't about a yard or garden,
    Or table where bellies are fed.

    I've learned home isn't a setting,
    Or a beach house on the sand.
    It isn't built with money,
    Or materials used with laboring hands.

    I've learned home is a tender melody,
    Played between two hearts.
    It happens inexplicably,
    From when the music starts.

    I've learned home is a place of joy,
    Decorated with the finest things in life.
    It's there with a smile or goofy grin,
    Or tears that fall at hard times and strife.

    I've learned home is a place of peace,
    With purposeful natural design.
    Warming the heart and healing the soul,
    From gloomy days when the sun doesn't shine.

    I've learned home is a place of love,
    With a porch light brightly lit.
    A door that opens without effort,
    For a key that perfectly fits.

    Sadly...

    I've learned home is where you are,
    But I didn't arrive on time.
    No porch light was on to light my way,
    And no open door did I find.

    I regret not speaking while I had the chance,
    The words "I love you" way back when.
    But I'm blessed you taught me the meaning of home,
    and thankful and ok being your friend.

    These are confession of a broken heart.

    To Where You Are

    I've wanted to run to where you are,
    And escape the fear keeping me far.
    I've wanted to kiss your beautiful lips,
    And feel your face on my fingertips.

    I've wanted to take that trip you asked,
    And let my trepidation be a thing of the past.
    I've wanted love that's healthy and true,
    So why in the world didn't I run to you?

    I've wanted to dance with you in the rain,
    And travel the world from Peru to Spain.
    I've wanted to hold you into the night,
    So why did I let you out of my sight?

    To feel your heartbeat as you're fast asleep,
    And pray to God that your soul to keep.
    To see your sweet face age over time,
    And be the number one of your life.

    To see you look on a beautiful sunset,
    Would be a gift I'd never forget.
    To lay under that palm tree in Bali,
    And take a cold ride in a San Francisco Trolley.

    For all the times I told you "no",
    I'm haunted in my being, my very soul.
    So many nights I lie awake,
    Holding nothing but a huge heartache.

    Are there actions or words to say,
    To capture your heart and all of your days?
    I guess my chance has come and past,
    I just pray the pain won't last.

    I know...

    I think I'll wait for a falling star,
    And wish to go to where you are.

    Please Hold Me Tight

    Please hold me tight,
    Don't ask questions,
    Just do what's right.

    Please hold me tight,
    I'm very scared inside,
    And, in depth of fright.

    Please hold me tight,
    When I feel like hurting myself,
    And, cannot see the light.

    Please hold me tight,
    Tell me you love me,
    And, tell me I'll be alright.

    Don't Think I'm Not Listening

    Having little hope to gain
    Feeling very depressed,
    Thinking the world is lame.

    When feeling this way,
    I feel like I need to cut,
    My life I only have away.

    I need someone to listen, a friend,
    Someone they say,
    They will be there till the end.

    Later I find out,
    They aren't,
    Which makes me have doubt.

    Rejected in many ways,
    I feel very hurt,
    And, my life is going astray.

    I only wanted to find love and peace.
    I never wanted to cut,
    And, now I feel like I have a disease.

    I don't know what wrong with me,
    I am doing my best, just like everyone else.
    I wish they'd appreciate it, and see....

    Nothing I say is good enough
    I try to talk to them,
    Only if I could just feel a little love.

    If only they would care,
    Or just even listen,
    When I need them to be there.

    I don't need to be hurt in many ways,
    I don't need to be judged,
    From all the hurtful words you say.

    I wish you'd realize someday,
    That I am doing my best,
    And, I'm dreading the day; today.

    Again, I feel depressed
    Rejected and hurt,
    And, I'm doing my best.

    I don't want you,
    To tell me I'm bossy,
    Or what to do.

    I want you show me for who I am,
    That you love me,
    And, not act like you don't give a damn.

    I hear every word you say,
    So; again, don't think I'm not listening.
    It hurts me in everyway.

    I cry every night,
    I feel insecure,
    Needing a night light.

    I have been hurt in many ways,
    From being molested and raped,
    So; please think before what you say.

    The man told me I was beautiful,
    If only words meant the truth,
    Those words hurt and don't sooth.

    Now, I know he was only trying to manipulating me,
    Scared, afraid, confused, hurt,
    Only at age 9, I didn't understand what it could be.

    It happened for three years,
    That I will have memories of,
    Those moments, I cry tears.

    I feel very depressed.
    Again, don't be mad at me,
    I'm doing my best.

    If only you could have been there,
    If only you could have saw, the pain,
    If only you could be there to care.

    Now, you know the truth,
    That what people say,
    Cannot always sooth.

    Sometimes people lie,
    And, while others hurt,
    People just want to die.

    I cry myself to sleep,
    While feeling depressed,
    And, wanting to cut deep.

    I don't need to be hurt in many ways,
    I don't need to be judged,
    From all the hurtful words you say.

    I hear every word you say,
    So; again, don't think I'm not listening.
    It hurts me in everyway.

    Next time, mean what you say,
    Think before you act,
    It can hurt someone is someway.

    "Broken Hearts"

    You've gone on to someone new.
    You've got me feeling down.
    Made me want to end my life.
    Just to end this frown.

    You said you only broke my heart,
    But how can that be true?
    You said things would get better.
    But I'm still in love with you.

    You said other people break people's,
    Hearts every single day.
    And how are you such a horrible person?
    By living life this way.

    Sadly you didn't break my heart.
    You stole it in my sleep.
    You still have it to this day.
    You're stabbing it softly as i speak

    It takes a very special girl,
    To make me feel this Weak.
    I thought i was stronger then this.
    But you've made my heart so meek.

    Why is it i pray for death?
    How can this even be?
    Dear Lord, Please take my life soon,
    Living in hell is killing me.

    You will never be able to go back,
    From all the things you've said.
    A cut on my wrist for every lie.
    Someday you'll make me dead.

    A picture lays on the table
    As color begins to fade away
    Memories of us are still fresh
    As if we just took it today

    It seemed like so long ago
    When we would sit down and chat
    We used to get into so much trouble
    We were the happiest little brats

    Best friends forever
    Together till the end
    We were there there for each other
    Your sorrows i would mend

    We grew up together
    Time flew so fast
    Despite the changes in surroundings
    Our friendship had no contrast

    We were joined at the hips
    All the people would say
    But it broke my heart
    To see you go away

    You took away your life
    It was too hard for you
    You couldn't take it anymore
    So your life you threw

    I still remembered that night
    You cried on the phone
    You didn't know what to do
    You felt so alone

    I rushed over to you
    I knew something was wrong
    You used to be so cheery
    You used to be so strong

    I found you on the floor
    Your body lifeless and cold
    A little knife by your side
    A letter in your hand i started to unfold

    Smothered in blood
    Told the story trapped inside
    The pain you felt
    The tears you've cried

    I held you in my arms
    You looked so pale
    My angel
    You've turned so frail

    That memory broke my heart
    One year has passed
    But you're still my angel
    Our friendship will last

    The Dark Path

    The dark path
    Filled with anguish and hate
    Starts with a single step
    Don't hesitate

    Let it lead you
    Meandering through the world underneath
    So painful and true
    From here u can never leave

    Where the dead rise
    Where hatred and pain show
    A sight so intoxicating
    There's alot more to go

    Now take your blade
    This is where we begin
    Slash your wrists
    Release the pain within

    Let the crimson grow
    Let your anger go wild
    You have nothing to lose
    Don't be afraid dear child

    Release the blade
    And move on in line
    To enter the casket
    Embroiled in vines

    Now slowly creep in
    And rest your soul
    Finally, you'll be born
    Into the darkness and cold!

    The moon is full
    And the time has come
    The souls will arise
    From their casket slums

    Above their tombs
    They scream in vain
    Squelching their bones
    To soothe their pain

    Bow down now dear child
    For Lucifer has occurred
    Haven't you realized??
    The sensation will recur

    Let the Satan vex your mind
    With deadly and noxious thoughts
    Never try to escape
    For your efforts will be naught

    The dark path is where your souls will rest
    For the underworld has no end
    Now take your blade new souls
    Onto the path we'll descend!

    Time

    Time can ruin, time can hurt
    Time can blame you for all it's worth
    Time can give you wrinkles, further your age
    Time can make you regret who you obeyed

    Time can show you the hardcore truth
    Time can rob you of your youth
    Time can break something once not broken
    Time can leave your hurt heart open

    Time can turn others against you
    Time can make you cry with regret
    Time will remind you of harsh hours spent
    Time can leave you feeling already dead

    Time can make the smallest things grow
    Time can make a friendship show
    Time can tie a special bond
    Time can turn things right from wrong

    Time can make you always late...
    But time decides some serious fates

  • Avrii Monrielle
    19 years ago

    They told me... everything...

    I've been with you since we met
    I have good feelings, no regrets
    But I feel like I'm the one to blame
    Now that nothing is the same

    I heard a lot of secrets
    From our hopeful, trusted friends
    And yet I feel my time with you
    Is soon going to end

    I never knew you were going to die
    By making the biggest sacrifice
    You could give it up, all of it
    And come with me to paradise

    Yet you choose to continue on
    Your harsh, exceeding quest
    That takes up your time and energy
    Even if you try your best

    I want you to know those last three words
    That could change our thoughts of which to smile
    But I'm not sure if it's the time to hear them
    Although I know this will be worthwhile

    I love you, that's all I need you to hear
    All you have to know
    I just wish you could forever stay with me
    I don't want you to go

    I can't believe I've been telling you all of these
    Promises that will never be fulfilled
    Because you are choosing to offer yourself
    For the entire world's free will

    I'll find a way, I know I can
    I don't want you to die
    Right now, just please smile...
    I don't like it when you cry

    If this is the end
    Stop me before three other words I say
    "Always....and forever"
    I want us both to be brave

    God.....

    God, sometimes I feel you dont hear me
    Or maybe you just ignore me

    Sometimes I wonder if your even real
    Or if its all just a fairytale

    Sometimes I hear my baby cry
    And sit alone and wonder why

    Sometimes I wonder why you wanted him
    But I see his shadow when the lights
    are dim

    Did you not have faith in me Lord?,To be a good mother to my son

    Or did you just think he was to good to come to earth
    So you gave him his wings before his life begun

    There are so many questions I ask myself
    And I guess I'll never figure out why

    But at night when I pray to you lord
    Please remind my son that I miss him deeply and I wish he never had to die~

    Sleeping Scapegoat

    For a time unknown to mortal man,
    I have born the blame,
    I have always been the one,
    That is forced to take the shame

    Problems caused by another,
    I take upon my soul,
    To rid this earth of darkness,
    I will take the toll

    But once your only scapegoat,
    If finally dead and gone,
    You will find another,
    Who must take your scorn

    Another one must be found,
    Someone to replace me,
    Another unknown person,
    You wont look far to see

    Die! Die! Die!
    They shout out to my face,
    Yet in the end I'm not dead,
    Even though bound in metal case

    Sleeping under the ground,
    The cold earth is my home,
    I will be forever doomed,
    To spend eternity alone

    I was once society's scapegoat,
    But now my work is done,
    No longer will you need the blamed,
    For now you've killed your son

    Need Help--
    by InvisibleGurl

    Sometimes people say,
    I'm not like myself.
    They say I've changed.
    Different.

    They say it in a bad way,
    With a dirty 'look' on their face.
    I guess they just wish,
    For me to be like before.

    But things are different,
    From then.
    Last year, I felt happy,
    Felt included.

    This year, the depression
    Is an everyday thing.
    But I keep a smile on.
    Plastered there.

    This year no one understands
    No one knows me.
    And I always feel like crying.
    But I never slip my mask off.

    Seems I've lost control,
    Of everything.
    Of my life.
    And I just need help.

    Where Did You Go Today Sis?

    Where did you go today sis?
    You never said goodbye,
    You never had much time for me,
    Now up high you fly,

    You had no faith in god above,
    I wonder if you’re right,
    If you’ve gone to hell or not,
    Or if you’re in the light.

    How do I know where you’ve gone?
    What do I believe?
    All I do is lie at home,
    Lie alone and grieve.

    If my tears could bring you back,
    You would be back home,
    A thousand different ones of you,
    But really I’m alone.

    All alone in an empty house,
    Full of all your dreams,
    Full of all your memories and,
    It makes me want to scream.

    Snoflakes are falling onto the land
    The sky is filled with stars above
    Right at the alter is where we stand
    Ready to commit our undieing love

    As we gaze into eachothers eyes
    Finally about to become one
    Tightly holding hands we began to cry
    Thinking about our life that has just begun

    As reality starts to fade away
    I start daydreaming about our new life
    Softely I hear the Preacher say
    Do you take this woman to be your wife

    As I pull myself out of my dream
    He slowely pulls away his hand
    Softely he says 'this isnt a scheme'
    And trust me baby, this wasnt my plan

    Theres just something I have to say
    Before you commit your life to me
    I got my results back the other day
    The doctors found cancer in my knee

    The're not quite sure how serious yet
    They said they would let me know
    But its a good idea to get a casket
    Because any day now I could go

    Baby, Im sorry I didnt tell you this before
    I just wanted to to love me
    I never thought it would become a war
    Yes, It was wrong I do agree

    But if the quetion still stands
    The answer is "I Do"
    But now the cards are in your hands
    As the preacher asks the quetion to you

    And if you wanna throw it all away
    Just remember that I love you
    And slowely and softely I heard her say
    I love you too, And yes "I Do"

    The air only gets colder
    as the tear runs down my cheek
    and everything grows darker
    as I only grow more weak

    This is what happens
    night after night
    keeping in my tears
    is {always} a constant fight

    I just want to see your smiling face
    and the twinkles in your eyes
    I want your arms around my waiste
    and my head up in the sky
    happiness surrounding us
    the love we feel is true
    butterflies in my stomach
    all that matters then is you

    'Cause every night I go to bed
    I imagine you by my side
    but I roll over and see the truth
    that to myself I'd lied

    You arent really here
    and I dont know if you ever will be
    so I grab my blanket, and grasp my pillow
    and close my eyes to see

    To see your smiling face
    the twinkles in your eyes
    your arms around my waiste
    my head up in the sky
    happiness surrounds us
    the love we feel is true
    butterflies in my stomach
    all that matters now is you

    To have you with me for a split second
    is more than I could ask
    but your halfway around the world
    and just hearing you is a task

    So when I try to sleep at night
    your what occupies my mind
    I close my eyes and start to dream
    and in this dream I find

    The smile on your face
    the twinkles in your eyes
    your arms around my waiste
    my head up in the sky
    happiness surrounds us
    the love we feel is true
    butterflies in my stomach
    all that matters now is you

    I wake up in the morning
    and all I had is lost
    your no longer with me
    and my heartbreak is its cost

    I have to get up now though
    no matter how alone I am
    I have to face another day
    even when I don't feel I can

    Life has knocked me down
    down upon my knees
    I'm helpless on the ground
    and I need you to set me free

    {You're what keeps me happy
    what keeps me alive at all
    just the thought of you picks me up
    when I'm about to fall}

    Until that day that I can have you
    I have to do my best
    to keep on going through this
    it is only just a test

    So I stare forever forward
    hoping for the day
    that I can look you in the eye
    to plain and simply say:

    I love you my darling
    with all my heart I do
    and never could I ask
    for anything more perfect than you

    If only I could see
    If only I could tell
    If only I could hold
    instead of whispering to myself
    I love you

    The stranger at the window,
    Who gazes at the sky.
    Searching for her freedom,
    Dreaming she can fly.

    Her heart sings beautifully,
    I can hear it with my own.
    It sings to me a song,
    of why she's all alone.

    He was her fearless soldier,
    And her soldier, he'll remain.
    As he fights the cold, hard war,
    In the cold, hard rain.

    But the name she remembers dear,
    Is now written in stone.
    And still she waits for her true love,
    To make his journey home.

    The stranger at her window,
    Who gazes at the sky.
    Searching for her freedom,
    Dreaming she can fly.

    When you decided to do what you did,
    did it come easily?
    Or was it rather a hard thing to do,
    to destroy what could have been.

    When you saw those people die,
    did it make you cry?
    Or did it make you jeer and laugh,
    after sacrificing lives?

    After being ignored by the media,
    did it make you mad?
    That your message didn't come across,
    didn't go quite as planned.

    I hope that it was difficult,
    to make so many hurt,
    For if it wasn't, I feel bad for you,
    because you live with a heartless soul.

    If you didn't cry, I cried double for you,
    for the victims on that day.
    And if you're, then so be it,
    cause you will learn today.

    On the streets, they protested,
    completely destroyed your name.
    They marched for their livelihoods,
    and for their families.

    Your attempt at glory failed you,
    your legacy denied.
    For the people of Jordan stand strong today,
    against your evil tribe.
