~This Photo~

This photo is a prison
locked up with memories
of before
before when we were
a young happy couple
just about to soar

This photo said alot
that we were happy
we were about to be wed
That we were going
to start a family
thats what this photo said

this photo still lives on
but without those
happy words
It just says how you
wasted my time and
how you made my heart torn

This photo will tell
tell all about the love
that we shared
All the enchanting times
tell how much we meant
how much we cared

This photo is now pain
To remeber what we had
so I threw it in the fire
I am so tired in questioning
What you could have
What we might of had

This photo is now
just a pile of ashes
No longer does
This photo hold
All the times we had
All of them gone with no words

here is one i did on a painting...

I Stand Here All Alone
by ~~Lindsay Woods~~

I stand here all alone as my friends watch me,
I look ahead and there i see,
a home that is not yet to be,

I stand here all alone,
Waiting on someone,
To show me where the light is hidden,
I look all around but i feel so forbidden.

I stand here all alone,
no one beside me,
trying to be some one that i am not,
I need some one to love and to care,
Is there some one who can hold me?

I stand here all alone,
Looking at the sun go down,
But who wants to love a girl in a pale white gown?

My friends just look and wait till the time is right.
For when it turns to night,
I still look for the one thing i need in life...
Light.

The Photo Album
By: ~*Who Caers?*~

(Sorry it's kinda long)

I look through old pictures, as thunder booms outside,
With each loud crash, it takes my happiness in its stride.
I see the old pictures of me when i was young,
Pictures of me smiling and sticking out my tongue.

I see a picture of my grandpa and me,
Way back before the drama, when I was happy.
Way before sickness, and before death,
Before I worried to take my next breath.

A picture of us, laying on the bed,
I was just a baby, as I laid by his head.
He looked so healthy, and young at that,
I turn the page, and it's me and my cat.

She was so old, and when I went out of town,
She died, and got buried into the ground.
The next pictures are me in school,
As well as some parties by the pool.

I see old friends, who I see no more,
As we sit and play in the waves at the shore.
I see a picture, of the one who broke my heart,
The one who I met, pushing a shopping cart.

He moved away, and now we don't talk,
Yet I remember when we held hands and walked.
Then I see my old singing teacher,
Who taught me so long, and my voice she featured.

She got sicker the longer I knew her, and then she too died,
As the ropes holding my life together began to untie.
The same day she died, my grandpa got cancer,
And un-gluing my heart was the new's answer.

The next pages of pictures, were him getting worse,
And he got so bad, there was nothing to reverse-
All that was wrong, so at 70 he died,
And for once I actually cried.

The rest of the pages are blank, because were up to date,
I notice the thunder is causing the walls to vibrate.
I've lost everyone, it seems like I love,
Yet their now free as doves.

I've lost my grandpa, singing teacher and cat,
I've lost the love from my father at that.
I've loved and lost, yet never gained,
Yet the memories and the pictures will remain.

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

The creepy photograph

She looks at the picture,
of her and her boyfriend.
She feel the guilt bulding,
She broke up, she made it end.

She couldn't know he would pass away,
The day after he died.
She felt as such a mean girl,
So many tears she cried.

She looks at more photographs,
All of them two,
She had so much to say,
Wow, if he only knew.

She looks at the pictures,
She wish he heard her cries,
But then she notice on every picture,
a black haired girl, with glowing eyes!

PHOTOGRAPH

Look at this photograph

It`s such a Hazy day

You`re looking beautiful today

The sun is dim

The grass is trimmed

You`re looking my way

You`ve made my day today

The beams of dim light

Strike your face and sparkle bright

The sun is not at home

So instead today you`re its epitome

Murky and cloudy skies

There`s innocence in your eyes

Rusted bars behind you

You make them look so new

I can keep looking all day

Hunger and thirst will run away

Watch the wind make it sway

The strands of your tress

The pink of your dress

I drift back to those memories

Pure, sublime, sweet

But now loneliness meets

For everything is over

The smile is lost forever

The year now must end

Memories and tears blend

But better thoughts soon come

Whenever I feel alone

I shall soon find calm

This photograph will be the balm

Whenever I have a bad day

I`ll look at you and stare

And it shall be a gleeful day

Simply because you`ll be looking

My way,,,

A past forgotten lover
by Just Rain

Buried in old pictures
Withered and gray
A past forgotten lover does stay
Fondled by time, caressed without love
This picture was for me
And yet I let thoughts blame with anger
My past forgotten lover
How years can change a person
Neither of us hold the same face
Nor pity the other of our fates
And yet we're divided
But restricted
I can't hope too high
What the future will hold
But I won't want any other
Than my past forgotten lover

When will the winners be choosen?

wow thse were all really great decided to judge now cause there havent been any entries for awhile so it was hrd but here goes...
