\\..Hit Me With Your Best Poem..//

Murder in a warehouse
by Tara-Kay

A girl was walking home alone,
as a tall man walked by.
Her legs turned to stone,
she was scared but didn't know why.

He put his hand over her mouth,
and dragged her along.
As he headed south,
he hummed a merry song.

He took her to a warehouse,
and slammed the door shut.
He walked around her silently as a mouse,
then punched her in the gut.

She was too terrified to fight back,
her body shaking with fright.
He turned round to attack,
His fists clenched tight.

He hit her again,
she wanted to shout.
Her body hurt with pain.
What was this about?

He bound her up with rope,
as she began to cry.
She couldn't feel no hope,
he was going to let her die.

He punched and kicked her,
then she began to bleed.
This became a murder as he did the final deed.

He turned and smiled at her,
then shot her in the head,
all she saw was ablur,
and sadly she was dead.

DEFINATELY THE BEST POEM I HAVE WRITTEN

this probably isnt my best...but w/e....

.: The Road :.

The road starts out
Narrow, straight...
No curves, nor turns,
No chance to step out of line.

As we travel along
the road reaches a fork.
Left or right....
Can you make the right choice?

Whether you take right,
or whether you take left.
You will reach your destination
It just might take longer.

The twists and turns on the road
are easy to follow.
But you may slip off the road,
and get lost.

There are signs leading you back.
Will you follow them or keep off the road?
Sometimes you just have to give in...
follow the signs get back to the road.

Leave the life with no direction.
Get back on ur path.
Keep crawling with your
hair in the crisp air.

Keep going while you can.
Savor every moment,
Dont regret....think of the future....
because someday that road will end.
...........................................................
Yea i made this poem for religion..... so thats why it had to do with life...... i just chose a road as my symbol for life.....(we had to base it on that poem like.....my life aint been no crystal stair)....

Into Thine Hands

Secret—Why do thou haunt thee morning hours?
Twas soul tears which trickled down fragile face.
Cup mine face into thine hands pure heartbreak.
Plague these chambers with sorrows, you shall.

Misery—Why do thou infect thee night’s sleep?
Twas demons which walk mine mind’s floor.
Litter mine flesh with specks of ashen dignity.
Tis a volcano buried beneath cracked layers.

Pillow—Ought thou to comfort thee tonight?
Mine head pounds these sorrows into thee.
This beating heart fails to swim above water.
Regrets thy allowed continuance access to.

Oh misery! Shall thy forever be under spells?

What I Said And What I Meant To Say
by Tisha

I said that my love for you has died
What I meant to say is that without you in my life every night I cry
I said that I hate you
What I meant to say is I'd give anything to have you here with me today
I said that I didn't want you in my life
What I meant to say is that this pain of missing you is cutting me life a knife
I said that I never want to hear your voice again
What I meant to say is that I am going crazy wondering how you have been
I said I was glad to say goodbye
What I meant to say that everything I said to you when you left was a lie
I said that I wish that you would stay away from me
What I meant to say is that I want things back to the way they used to be
I said I have told you all that you need to know
What I meant to say is that I need to let my feelings for you show
I said that you no longer have a place in my heart
What I meant to say is that I can not take us being apart

~Sometimes what you say and what you mean to say are two different things,choose your words wisely~

((I'm sure everyone is sick of seeing this one though, lol. But here it is.))

A Final Prayer

A slow rolling tear
Falling down his cheek
As he stood over her bed
he began to feel weak

He couldn't believe it
No way this was true
He couldn't live without her
He wouldn't know what to do

He dropped to his knees
At the head of her bed
Looked up to the ceiling
Crying he said,

"Why'd you do this god
Why'd you take her from me
I need her so much
Why can't you see

It can't end this way
No, she can't die
God please don't do this
I can't say goodbye

She can't go away
Not here, not now
I'll do anything to bring her back
Please just tell me how

Take the life from me
Take my heart and soul
God please bring her back
I don't care what the tole

Take the blood from my veins
The breathe from my chest
I don't care if I die
Just put me to rest

God please listen
The pain is to much to bare
Her life will end real soon
If at all you care"

He stopped speaking for a minute
As she layed there dying
The only sound to be heard
Was of the teenage boy's crying

His tears crashed to the floor
As he barely made a stand
He reached across her body
And held her hand-in-hand

As he wiped his eyes
He couldnt understand
Whyd this have to happen
Whyd it have to end?

He had one last thing to do
As he watched her lay
He had one last minute
One last thing to say

"I have one more thing to ask
a favor, God, from you
If you are going to take her
Can you please take me too?"

Again he fell to his knees
Not knowing what else to say
He held her hand tight
Not ready to give her away

But then he heard the monitor
Beep for the final time
And after that, all to be heard
Was the single flat line.

He let her hand go
And kissed her on the cheek
As more tears came to his eyes
He prayed they'd soon meet

Although she is in heaven
Past the clouds and above
They could deny him her body
But not their love

And when he gets to heaven
He will soon see
She will be waiting
To be together...Eternally

LEAP OF FAITH

Deep inside i am dying
While on the outside i am crying
with only this rain as my witness
i look over..
it a long way down
i look over..
i turn around
i am ready...
falling down, down, down..
waiting till i hit the ground
my mind has been made up
theres no going back
everything is black
for some reason I'm not dead..yet
i know i will be shortly..
as i breath my last few breaths
as i think my last thoughts...
they come to you
and how after you died i couldn't live
my last thought: ill see you soon...
......

~MIndy J. Ganser~

With my heart you'll play your trick
With my razorblade I'll play mine
Youll take my heart and say you'll care
I'll take my razor blade and form a little line

Your trick is like magic an illusion of love
I'm falling deeper into your spell you've enchanted for me
My trick is like ectasy just like a drug
An addiction that wont set me free

With my heart in hand
you take it for a ride
A ride that never ends in tears,
but laughter and smiles

With my razorblade in hand,
I'll take it for a spin
Turning and cutting deeper
into my skin

Each passing day Im sinking deeper
into this trap you've set
To you it's just a game the more tricks
the better score you'll get

Each passing day
I'm getting closer to my demise
Every cut bringing me closer
to what I know is true inside

Finally feeling helpless,
I confide in you
The pain, The hurt, The cuts,
All that I've been through

But your not interested,
this wasnt what you were after
The illusion disappears, The scars still there,
but gone is the laughter

My heart is now breaking,
because you melted away the ice
Nothing left to shield it,
nothing but my device

I resort to it,
to keep me from the pain inside
Closer, and still closer
to my demise

The words can't escape me
But I'll see to it that these feelings will
I won't end it with this razor alone
I'll end it with what I feel

I feel you ripped out my heart,
so i literary will
I feel like you drugged me,
so I'll take this pill

You slashed through my life,
I'll slash through my wrist
You carved your name in my heart,
and that'll be my twist

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

A Copy of Zero

Single file.

As we go to and fro
down the path to our demise.

Blackened skies.

As we go no one knows a thing,
no one hears the cries.

The vagrant clouds.

They weep for us as we shed blood
and zero almost meets its match.

For zero becomes our mind's only process at death's point.

The stars have come and gone.

The maker has pointed out Mother's eternal flaw.

And nothing will ever be the same again.

Single File.

As we go to and fro,
and no one will ever truly know a thing.

Zero comes and goes just as the wind.

Sleeping under the burnt out stars.

Never to wake again.

~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.

~Sean Dohr~

Nature's Paintings
by J. Lau

Misty air fills the icy cold sky,
High above the sea of clouds.
This first canvas dominated with black,
Is barely visible to the naked eye.
Starring closely long enough,
A glimpse of gold slowly shows.
Growingly visible, this painting of golden sunrise,
Slowly fades away it's canvas,
And opens the painter's show...

Prepared with colour palettes and a fresh new canvas,
The painter's brush introduced the riches of hue.
Shades of yellow, orange and red was used,
To contrast against the clear blue sky.
This breathtaking landscape, tall and mighty,
Stretches beyond the canvas, as far as one can see.
This, he calls... "The Grand Canyon".
Painted with the richest of colour,
Is most definitely one of his masterpiece.

Moving along the gallery of paintings,
Another canvas glistens for the dying attention.
This simple piece of a freezing ice storm,
Paints a Winter Wonderland that sparkles and twinkles.
An ordinary tree transformed,
Into a glistening crystal tree.
Houses, cars and all visible objects frozen in a shell of ice,
Glittering like diamonds from golden streaks of sunlight.
Rarely was this seen,
Yet a true gem of a scene.

Another common painting sets the standard,
Definitely a favourite under the painter's brush.
All shades of colours from blue to gold,
Fills the entire canvas from day to night.
Purple and blue dazzle the skies,
While gold and amber reflect elegantly off the lake.
Minutes later as the sun sets down,
Darkness swallows it's canvas,
And this unique painting slowly dissipates.

These are just a few examples of his work,
With over a billion paintings every day,
This painter's show lasts only hours each day.
The painter close off with a challenge,
For any artist to compete against his works.
No one dares to compare,
The ever-changing landscapes he creates.

The painter also left a note,
Reminding all his viewers to stop and think.
To take the time to appreciate all his work.
Not bound only to what one can see,
But to all his creations... including you and me.

"Believing the Lies"

He's sitting next to her in their room,
and on his shirt,
she smells perfume...

She tries to stay strong,
when everything is going wrong.
As she softly asks him "whose is this?"
He punches her with his fist.
And as tears well up in her eyes,
she slowly starts to cry...

After he realizes what he's done,
he tells her "I'm so sorry, Hun.
I'll never do it again,
or my soul will die in sin"

And she believes him.
Not because she doesn't know any better,
but because she wants it to be true so badly.
And she's in love with him, madly.
---------------------------------------------------------
Wow. I'm not nearly as good as the people above me. But this is my best, and I'll give it a shot.

~Master Key~

So many secrets
You do hold
You open up the doors
To a whole new world.
Just as easy as
Opening up doors
You can
Lock them from
Opposing words.

So many burdens
You do hold
So many secrets
A master key
Can unfold

Will you open
To loving things?
Or will we find
Skeleton hiding
Under appalling lies?

So many secrets
A master key does hold
You hear our whispers
And open our dream.

What will we do if you
Lose you oh master key
Will our secrets be spilled
As if it was a bad dream?
Will you never again
Unlock our minds
And gives us hope on
A starry night?
So many secrets
A master key can hold
So many secrets one key
Can unfold.

"Daughter of a freak"
by Wings of an Angel

Her hair so awful, her skin so pale,
She always wondered, where did she fail?
Born by a freak, raised as a slave,
No one to guide her, to tell her how to behave.
Years of working, years so dark,
She has never seen light, it has left its mark.
Shut in a room, just going out to clean,
It's the most horrifying thing they'd ever seen.
A key to lock her bedroom door,
Nothing on the walls, nothing on the floor.
No pillow, no bed, no good memories to hold,
No warmth, no love, nothing but cold.
Her mother locked the door, threw away the key,
The girl keeps asking herself "Whats so wrong with me"
Sitting in her room, hearing her mother go out,
She tries to scream, she tries to shout.
Her mother left her behind, in this room to die,
Now she's sitting there, trying not to cry.
She lays down, on the cold hard ground,
Trying to pray, hearing no sound.
Laying there for a couple of days,
in darkness and sadness, down she layes.
She will never raise again, never see the light,
She finally gives up, she will no longer fight.
Her eyes cry of sorrow, her eyes cry of tears,
Suddenly she sees something, an angel appears.
"Come with me, darling, come to the light,
"We will love you, you don't have to fight"
The angel smiles and reaches out her hand,
Where did this come from, she doesn't understand.
The girl reaches out her hand, suddenly starts to soar,
"Don't worry little darling, they won't hurt you anymore"

After The Killing
by Silent Song (Hayley J)

After the killing,
after all the blood shed,
do they even feel remorse,
about all the empty beds?

To walk down the street,
where so many innocents died,
riped apart from their families,
a life they denied.

Friends turning on each other,
families broken in two,
society shattered,
because of the lines they drew.

A festering wound,
on all those who survived,
haunted by memories,
of the innocence denied.

To the creators of this misery,
do we now see how wrong we were,
to wipe out a religion, an entire race,
in hopes of making the world "pure".

And after all these years,
all this time to reflect,
it's happening in the Middle East,
the people we need to protect.

If only our lesson had been learned,
then how many thousands would still be alive,
how many future scientists and doctors will die,
because their lives we deprived.

A miracle is needed,
to fix the pain worldwide,
because we cannot learn from our mistakes,
and the globe continues to divide.

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."

~*Who Cares?*~
I had a few I really liked that was hard to decide!
Good Luck Everyone.

Yeah I know how you feel it took me awhile to figure out what poem to post.
I love all the poems so far!!!!! Great work people :D

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..

Short Story

If only the words that lie inside,
Openly would show,
Than you would see the pain subside,
And how I love you so,
But here I stay where I am well,
Away from all the pain,
Here in my heart-broken hell,
Where living is but vain,
And my only hold on life,
Beats within my chest,
Pierced, as if it were a knife,
Heartbroke and at unrest,
Doctor, won't you check my pulse,
To see if I'm alive,
Is this life or is this false,
And how could I survive,
For life without it's reason,
Is that even life at all,
Living only for the season,
As passes summer to fall,
Is there life beyond that place,
Where you dream to be,
Why must I the future, face,
This futures not for me,
So give me life in all its wonder,
Give me air to breathe,
Give me hope to cast asunder,
Upon the day you leave,
Give me pain and give me hell,
Above all of these things,
Give me a short story to tell,
For death the future brings.

Daniel Ray Mulvany

Why??

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

i cant wait for the results!

good luk every1..:)

What love is???

Love is a feeling to die,
It's a feeling to live one more life.
Love is a feeling to let others live,
But it's never a feeling to kill.

Love is a feeling of fear to get apart,
It's a feeling which join million of hearts.
Love is a feeling which often makes you cry,
It's a feeling which one cannot buy.

Love is a feeling to care more than urself,
It's a feeling of joy, care and help.
Love is a feeling to protect your loved one,
It's a feeling in which hearts are won.

Love is a feeling to hear the silent words,
It's a feeling to ignore the absurds.
Love is a feeling to feel the others pain,
But it's never a feeling just all about gains.

Love is a feeling to wait for someone dear,
Only love is the feeling which brings them near.
Love is a feeling to be together till the end,
Its always a feeling to hold the hand in every trend...

Misunderstood

You stuck with me when times were bad
You're the best person I've ever had
You forgave me when nobody could
because i was simply misunderstood
I thank God ever day
for having the best mom in the world today
the person that loved me
the person who cared
the person where all my secrets were shared
so this poem goes out to you
just to show how much I love you.
