    No more do the stars brightly glimmer
    Happiness in my life I will no more allow
    No more do streams under moonlight glitter
    No more to me does the wide sea shimmer
    To me the sun itself is dimmer
    For all is dark to me now

    Since the day the life flew out of thee
    Only weeks after we had made our vow
    All thoughts of life deserted me
    Life itself lost all meaning to me
    The joys in this world I no longer can see
    For all is dark to me now

    Each day as I sorrowfully waken
    Wishing I was with you somehow
    For by God you have been taken
    I am left desolate, alone and forsaken
    My faith has been so surely shaken
    For all is dark to me now

    Now my body lies broken
    Forever is it dark for me now
    For my heart it has been broken
    For my soul it has been broken
    So desperate steps I have taken
    With you forever I will be now

    His warm embrace
    by Marjan

    This poem of mine is
    about no one but God.

    Warm embrace
    Sweet face
    Shining so bright
    A beautiful sight
    15 years ago
    He told me
    I had to go
    To somewhere else
    I didn't know
    I was in tears
    Couldn't think of
    Being away
    For many many years
    He cleaned my tears
    Put his hand
    On my heart
    And told me:
    I will always
    Be here
    So near.
    And smiled.
    A smile I'll
    Never forget.
    Then I came here
    Forgot his face
    Throughout the years
    But I know he's here
    With me
    Through thick & thin
    I have no fear.
    Trying to be my best
    Knowing here I'm just a guest
    Missing his
    Warm embrace
    Sweet face
    Shining so bright
    A beautiful sight

    Scars That Heal
    by ~~Lindsay Woods~~

    When you found that one person who makes you feel like your the only one in the room,

    That one person who still sits beside you no matter what you have been through,

    The one who asks you if your ok when you have done something wrong,

    The one person who sings to you from the heart the most wonderful song,

    When you found that one person who loves you for who you are,

    The one person who will keep you from moving to far,

    The one person that you look at and they always make you smile,

    That is the one person who will make it all worth the while,

    When you have found that person you will know from the start,

    That is the one person you will always have in your heart.

    When you find your one and only,

    Tell them how you feel,

    That is the one thing that they can do is make the scars heal.

    broken

    your words slice through me
    sharp as a knife
    my blissful happiness is gone
    because of this strife
    each day is the same
    you break me, then put me back together
    i'll go in my room to hide
    when i come out, you act like you don't remember
    you don't see how hurt i am
    even though it's so clear
    and no matter how many times i cry
    you don't see a single tear
    you don't understand how much pain you cause me
    you'll never understand my sorrow
    you don't know how many times i pray
    that it'll be better tomorrow
    but it'll never be better
    for when i think there's finally peace
    it's all torn away
    it comes to a cease
    i end up broken
    just like before
    all the suffering i've gone through
    i'll go through once more
    i wish you'd stop this yelling
    it makes me feel like such a failure
    you don't realize what you're doing
    my life is becoming my nightmare
    my memories are haunting me
    i'm restless every night
    i cannot fall asleep
    all i can do is cry
    the next day you come up to me
    you put me together again
    then you say you're sorry
    and you think you've been forgiven
    but there's something different now
    something is not right
    for a piece of me is missing
    one that's beyond your sight
    i feel like all my true happiness is gone
    i'm in this deep depression
    but nobody will ever know this
    for i'm lying and pretending
    i'll never show how i really feel
    unless you're someone i trust
    you'll never see a single tear shed
    in public my pain turns to dust
    but no matter what i lead you to believe
    inside i am crying silently
    for i know if things keep going this way
    my nightmare will become my reality

    This is not goodbye
    by Tabby

    Crying by his bedside my tears flow endlessly
    I held his hand so tightly never wanting to let go
    Trying to not think about what is about to be
    I look up at him trying to not let my sadness show

    His eyes are closed his breathing is slow and heavy
    I run my hands through his thick, dark, brown hair
    His handsome face is so pale with the color gray
    That I begin to cry even harder thinking it isn't fair

    Sickness is taking my true love away from me
    Draining away his energy happiness and light
    But not stealing our love away from each other
    That is the one thing that he was able to fight

    His eyes slowly open and he turns toward me
    He smiles a weak smile and touches my cheek
    I feel myself breakdown and burst into sobs
    trying to say don't die but I could no longer speak

    he grabs my hand and pulls me to him
    reaching for my face he brings me into a kiss
    then he hugs me with such a weak embrace
    I hug him so tight never wanting to end this

    Suddenly he lets go I pull myself slowly up
    He looks at me with such sadness in his eyes
    "I love you sweetheart"he says to me
    "I love you but there will be no goodbyes"

    "I love you to" I sob into his shoulder
    I lay on his chest hearing his heart as I cry
    I feel his breathing slowly fade away
    As i sob to myself I say "its ok this is not goodbye".....

    Act 2
    Scene 2: Discovering the definition of murderous glares (this is what i see when i look at you)

    Shallow eyes
    Peicing the flesh it’s so fixed on
    The smell of the insides linger in the air
    The steigns of crimsion paint the ceramic floors
    Nothing can dissolve these chemicals
    Coursing and spreading like a disease
    Racing down your arm
    On a one way track to your heart
    The shadows turn to light
    And the light is bathed in fear
    A dark overpass we all must pass under
    We could climb
    If only the words could be concieved
    Or the feedback wouldn’t drown them out
    I cut the cord
    The life support dies as they grow colder
    A pale blue face
    With empty eyes looking straight threw me
    Why couldn’t they do that in the first place?!
    I had to fight this!
    Finally be free!
    Stone walls can’t rebounds the sounds
    The screams crash against the windows
    The blood splashes against the walls
    They’ll die in their own shame!
    This is not a suicide!!!!!
    WELCOME THE FUCK HOME
    You’ll never come back up for air
    So you’ll always reside there
    Because my voice makes the biggest impact
    In the water your submerged in
    Let it leave the imprints
    So you can find the parts you can understand
    So you know
    I fucking love her
    You should have believed me in the first place!
    Now you’re hitting the waves at the bottom of every cliff I can find!!
    They’ll never find your body!
    And I’ll burn your flesh from the broken bodies!
    Grind the bones to a dust
    And spread them all over the fucking world
    The columns will weep
    And the public will always whisper
    Of a love that took your life
    We’ll get the last laughs, you’ll see

    Feelings of a year
    by J. Lau

    Cheated... of time,
    Unsure... of events.
    Sad... with reality,
    Despaired... with fate.

    Jealous... of him,
    Confused... with reactions.
    Worried... for her,
    Happy... for them,

    Pain... when comforting,
    Lost... on answers.
    Helpless... with situaiton,
    Hopeful... of miracle.

    Trapped... with feelings,
    Overwhelmed... by logic.
    Cornored... with emotions,
    Wishful... of future.

    Castle
    by Sarah Drew

    You and I
    Together forever
    In our castle made of sand

    We have everything we need
    All the love I could give
    All the love I can get
    We are perfect for each other

    Together in our castle
    We shall live for eternity
    Our beautiful castle
    Shall stand tall for us

    It will never fade away
    The water can never harm it
    We are safe from everything
    Just you and I

    We shall never go hungry
    For we feast off our love
    We shall never grow old
    For our love shall keep us young

    What more could you ask for
    Then the love we have
    So pure and sincere

    The untold lies...
    by:yuniardi

    I would never forgive myself..
    even i am dropped in hell
    never knowing how u feel.....
    with a deep blue ill.........

    on that short christmas eve.....
    when you suddenly leave
    a pair of teary eyes.......
    as i know the untold lies.....

    thus, your gentle smile.....
    has turned into incomprehensible file.....
    and every single of your touch
    has become a deep ingrained cut....

    what a fool i am......
    full of critics and damn.....
    your life is full of uncertainty
    but i keep nagging a pity

    again and again...
    i expect you to understand..
    with a sound of offense
    without knowing where you stand.....

    even so, you always deny.....
    to say that important line
    with a soft white lie...
    or a saying i'm fine........

    now, bombard me with your protests..
    but please do not give me such a test..
    please don't you ever leave me.....
    cause you mean the world to me...

    Photograph
    by Alyson

    Look at the girl
    How she sits so still
    Motionless in her depression
    Not knowing her will

    Silently watching
    Eyes open wide
    Never does she blink
    So her feelings she doesn't hide

    Shes looking through the glass
    At the people that surround her
    How they stare at her helplessly
    Wishing she was there

    But she just sits there silently
    With the smile upon her face
    To bad that its a mask
    And she holds it firmly in place

    That was in the past
    As the scene sadly shows
    In the photograph she will sit forever
    With the sadness nobody knows
