1- My Little Buddy.

I have a friend Who is very dear to me.
He is rather yellow, and can float around you see?

He sits right there and never makes a sound.
Sometimes he even likes to play Lost and Found.

When my Mom Yells "Dinner!" I know it's almost time.
I run as fast as I can knowing it's nearly my bedtime.

My little friend he rests right there, just as silent as ever.
I climb up and over smiling widely knowing, he'll be mine forever.

As the water flows, and the tub seems to grow.
My little buddy starts to float, just like not long ago.

I pull the plug knowing we've had our fun.
Smiling widely as I wiggle my toes, knowing that my day is done.

I pet him upon the head and waddle off to bed.
For this was just another day with my Rubber Duck Ted.

(I hope I did that right. If not sorry. x_X)

2- Under pressure

This dark secret, this dark night,
This thing of cold, this thing without light.
Under all expectations, in anyones mind,
She was supposed to be perfect, supposed to be kind.
Under her skin, inside her head,
This fear of disappointing, every night in her bed.
"Did I do good enough" is behind all her thoughts,
For the grades she has, hard she fought.
"They only care about me being good"
But when she failed, alone she stood.
All alone, her mind went black,
In her memory, she know she had to go back.
He will hit me, my face and his fist,
Outside there will be a mysterious mist.
The mist is silver, the mist is her,
Her guardian angel, the parent she prefer.
The echo of her angel, the echo of her mother,
Which her dad tried to replace fast by another.
Her mother is angry, yet for her daughter she is nice,
But he abused her so bad, he have to pay the prize.
"Its over, its over" her mother tries to shout,
She grabbers her husband, and throws him out.
"Leave now, and never come back!
How dare you take her, how dare you attack?
I called the police, gave them proof,
that you didn't give her home, you gave her roof.
You never cared, and you always yell,
Goodbye so called daddy, go to hell!"

A DOVE’S LAST WORDS

Here I am lying, almost dead
In your brown woods o king
So thick words left unsaid
Plenty songs I had still to sing

Once a dove, flying high
Dressed in my feathers white
Now stained in red, as I am dying
I see a circling, greedy kite

In your realm, I too was woven
But you failed to realize
As you picked up your loaded gun
And shot me through the eyes

If you had seen my brood
Waiting on the lifeless tree
Famished, yelping for food
Perhaps you’d have spared me

You shot me with hunter’s skill
But had you spotted the bread
I fetched for them, in my bill
I mightn’t have been dead

Once a prince of younger age
Who had a heart, kind and true
Had set me free from my cage
Recall; that prince was you

But after the wars you have blazed
Age and pride have made you blind
Compassion now holds no place
In your icy heart and ruthless mind

4. Heaven or Hell?
By: Poonam

Where do we belong?
in the bleached sweetness of heaven
or the dark gut wrenching pain of hell?
God? Have you foresaken us?
are we made by the almighty
or do we have the devil's mark.

destined to crouch in the dark,
never to feel the the sun on your arms
or the rainbows dance in the sky
never to grow old,
to feel neverending energy
an older mind in a youth's body
destined to feed on the
sweet infatuating nectar
of the unknowning mortal
for all of eternity.

churches do not stop us, the garlic
and the stakes rendered pointless
the sunny morning or fire can send
our souls to whatever end.

But to whom would we go
if the world finally ended
and the endless corpes on which
we feed to live each night
who will claim us.
demon or dark angel
to heaven or to burn in hell

5) Goodbye Darling

She watches as they slowly, lower the casket,
Wishing she had never told him to take that shortcut.
If it wasn't for her yelling, he'd still be alive,
As she goes back into her memory archive.

Back in high school, when they first met,
He asked her out, because it was a bet.
Then he realized, money didn't matter,
He didn't care who knew, for he loved her.

They were only freshman, yet madly in love,
They had maturity far up and above-
the rest. Then at 18, he popped the question,
"Will you marry me", and "yes" was her reaction.

Now she cries, after 5 years of marriage,
She wishes more than anything to give him one last message.
That's she sorry, and she loves him more than anything,
She will miss him, and don't worry, he'll always mean something.

The priest then states, "He died in a car,
As he, and his wife, drove to the local bar.
She said, take a shortcut, because it's getting late,
Because tonight was special, since their child, their first date.

A drunk from the bar, must've not seen them,
Because he hit the car, and the car went in flames in mayhem.
Luckily for us, the wife got away,
As we can see, he didn't, that's why were here today."

He says a little pray now, as all throw in roses,
As in his coffin, he eternally snoozes.
All the guest go home, except for his wife,
She says goodbye, he was the love of her life.

"Goodbye, my darling Husband, I've known you so long,
I'm sorry that this happened, I was so wrong.
I'll really miss you, I'll never forget about you,
Goodbye honey, I know you love me too."

Spare me the Explanation

I can't bare the look in your icy eyes.
Because I know what is coming my way.
It's the scene I seen played over and again.
You leave in silence with nothing to say.

Is this what I've been waiting for?
I said I would wait forever and it wasn't a lie.
But you're leaving me again.
And I can see the tears in your eyes.

Spare me the explanation.
I understand that you're not the same.
I know that people change over time
But I only recongnize your name.

I want you to know that once you leave,
When you walk out that door forever,
That you can never take back your actions.
You can' put the pieces back together.

I remember waiting for the phone to ring.
Pick up but only to hear my own voice.
Hearing the crushing sound of the dial tone.
Was when I finally realized you choice.

It's simple your gone, gone forever.
You left with no more than a goodbye.
Turned your back and left without a glance
Here I am fighting back the tears I cry.

And I can understand rejection,
But what I do not comprehend
Is how you left me in silence.
And how our beginning was the end.

--emotionless.19*

Why? (7)

The pain and suffering that burns through my heart
I just cant take it when were apart
When you told me that we were threw
I knew then there was nothing that I could do

It tore my heart into a million pieces
This feeling that your heart releases
I cant take it anymore I want to die
I raise up the knife as I start to cry

The knife is sharp against my wrist
I know now that I wont be missed
As blood from my veins start to burst
I think about how you were my first

I sat your picture next to the letter
That says how things just couldnt get better
One more slice and all my veins are cut
Here it goes now my eyes are shut

When they found me in the puddle of red
They knew then that I was dead

This simple pleasure
by Silhouette, of something unimaginable

The stars are out
we are together
nothing but us
and this simple pleasure

laying in the sand
with the waves crashing in
and our love to warm us
after our midnight swim

you fret about the castle, i broke
but we built one together
bigger and better
just hold on to this simple pleasure

the stars are out
we haven't a care
they glisten in the sky
like the sun in your hair

we took a picture
of us together
as i look at it
i remember this simple pleasure

Missing him
by ŘÅÇĦ♥

A silence comes accross her
That no one can explain
They no there is something more
Something she is hiding
It's a silence in black and white

She's hiding the words you said
the things you did
She's hiding the past,
And things not yet of her past
She wants to earse the memories
to earse that part of her life

She wants to cut
She wants to bleed
She doesn't deserve any better
He was all she ever needed
And suddenly
he didn't need her anymore
And she didn't know what to do
Where to go

He's lucky
she knows how to go around like she's happy
Like she doesnt care
she only wishes
He was pretending too.

He said he really liked her..
She'd NEVER admit
She adored him
with everybreath she wonders
what the hell happened
and
where the hell she screwed up.

-A cold, black night-
by ..נєѕѕу..©

On a cold black night
She stands alone on the bridge
The place they first met
The place they first kissed
The place they said good-bye..

It remains in her memories
Forever more,
Lingering here and there
Flowing about her body
Eternally reminding her of him..

The mist surrounded them
Like a silvery shawl
He whispered that he had to tell her
A secret
Surprised but excited,
She exclaimed
Ooh.. A secret?

And then she saw it
The cold hard fear..
Sitting there behind his
Electric blue eyes..

He could sense her alarm
And decided to tell her this
Precious, terrible, information
As carefully as he possibly could..

He looked deep into her eyes
And told her
No matter what,
You know I love you right?
Her eyes started to water
And she nodded her head slowly
What was he going to say..

He brought his mouth
Close to her ear
And kissed it
I love you
He repeated
Then he took a deep breath
And these are the words
That came out of the mouth
That she loved so much..

I want you to find someone else
You deserve better than me
I want you to find someone
That makes you feel special
That makes you laugh
And that you will love
Until the end of time..

What are you talking about?
You do all those things..
Why would I need someone else?
She had cried out, starting to panic..

He looked pained
And sighed a little..

I have cancer
I will not be here
To the end of time
To love and to care
For you..
I only have a few months left..
And then I will be gone..

She gasped..
The tears in her eyes
Started running down her
Cold cheeks
And then she looked up
At him and saw the tears
His tears,
Overflowing from those
Electric blue eyes..

She couldnt hold it in any longer
She let out an anguished sob
And it echoed all around their
Magical palace..

He held her tight
Right under his chin
He kissed her hair
And told her
Everything would be fine
It will all be ok..

She was comforted
By his soft,
Confident words,
But what she
Did not see
Was the sparkle on his cheeks..

He cried silently
Just as scared as she was,
As they embraced
On their once magical bridge
Surrounded by
A silvery shawl
On a cold black night..

Lost in the city
by J. Lau

Wandering aimlessly,
In a city full of people.
So lost...
Mindless...
Nothing seems interesting anymore,
Nothing appears to the mind.
No sense of urgency,
No sense of time.

People all around you,
In a shopping spree.
Talking...
Laughing...
Browsing shops with their loved ones,
Looking for the perfect gift.
Some enjoying the moment,
Some rushing to get back home.

Walking alone quietly,
Without memories to claim my own.
Pacing...
Without purpose...
Just painstakingly waiting,
For a friendship on hold.
A relationship that never started,
Uncertain of its future.

Lost... in a city,
Counting... Every second.

< - - - - - - - - - - - >

Confined Inside

Trapped inside the cold stone walls
Where no one else can find me
Trapped inside my frozen mind
No one will ever see

Locked away in my little dungeon
Hidden from all the hate and anger
Locked away in a barren prison
No one will ever cause a stir

Chained to my permanent sanctuary
Cold metal glides across my skin
Chained to memories terrible and haunting
I fear no one will save the girl within

Confined to all lies, misery and doubt
Searching for truth I've never known
Confined to the past I cannot put behind me
Looking for love I've never been shown

Frozen to the spot I last saw you
Wishing I could see you once again
Frozen to the bruises, the cutting and the tears
Wanting but I know I never can

~Postpartum Deport~

A relationship bound by the court,
two parents yearning to abort.
One child's postpartum deport,
a life, from the start, out of sorts.

The help of two elders, they sought,
a custody battle, never fought.
Drug addict parents, got caught,
important lessons, never taught.

A baby that was left behind,
consequences of a legal bind.
A lifestyle of a different kind,
viewpoints from a distorted mind.

A family separated by years in time,
a life with a different rhythm and rhyme.
Two people, making up for another's crime,
always living off of their last dime.

A difficult situation from the start,
a unique picture, of an unpopular art.
A family, nearly torn apart,
two grandparents, certainly, off the charts.

An unwanted boy, now full grown,
held together by seams, left un-sewn.
Approaching life with a whole different tone,
hoping, some day, to live life on his own.
