Lost souls

When you left me
In silence and grace
My heart weeps
How can I feel your trace
The fleeting memories
Hard to erase
The familiar voice
Renders my heart race

Days go by
Sorrow grows
My tears dry
With a soul hollow
Like a lost child
So hopeless and desperate
My guiding star
Where is your orbit?

Your voice still whispers
I can’t feel your presence
Try to hide you in my lines
Words fail me once
My soul was lost
It has gone with thee
Please light a candle for me
Brightening my way to meet thee

talee and jessy, no worries. thanks for letting me know. do you want me to add 5 more titles? or perhaps, change a couple titles already listed?

^^ maybe this would help :) but i am feeling a little non-poetical at the moment.. hehe..thanks though!

Thanks Arwen
xD
that makes it all worthwhile.
good luck enterennies

yes you may, aken sol

great poem moonriver!

Al, your poem was REALLY good...especially because i love the medieval time period and i LOVE horses (i have 2). one problem however: you call the horse a foal, but a foal is the name for a baby horse when it is still way too young to ride.

i would leave it though, i won't mark you down.

yes, i realise that a foal is a baby horse i was trying to portray how the king owned the horse since it was young if you notice i dont use the word foal again, kind of my way to show the horse/foal age throughout the poem...or if you want you can also look at it in the same respect that a mom call her youngest child her baby even if her child is like 20...but i was actually going for the first thing...

wait did you change it? i could have sworn you said "foal" every time instead of horse....ok i think i am losing my mind. sorry. either way, i really like your poem. good writing!!

Cold and Alone

Sitting in the corner,
The pain washes over me.
Cold and alone again,
The thoughts slip back,
To where this first began.
It wasn’t supposed to happen,
I shouldn’t be like this.
Everything slipped away,
In just one single night.
The desperation pulled me down,
I struggled to stay afloat,
Had that hand not been there,
I’d be at the bottom of a lake.
My mind could not bear the emotions,
I never understood why I was chosen,
Why I was forced to grow up so fast.
Childhood had to be left behind,
As I stepped into the life of a stranger.
Leaving friends in the dust,
I couldn’t see the facts,
That were shoved into my face.
Life rolled on around me,
But I was frozen in time,
As nothing I could say or do
Ever proved to get me out.
This situation had taken over me,
There wasn’t anything left,
No signs of what used to be,
And suddenly I realized what I had to do.
Help was what I needed,
No matter how hard it was.
I had denied the story for too long,
Pushed the truth away.
Now it was time to take control,
Lead to way to victory.
Every night we fought,
Each tear that was shed,
It was all worth it in the end.
I thought I came out on top of it all,
Trying to show I could stand alone.
Though the years have proved me wrong,
I need others to hold me tall.
There are still those nights I try to escape,
In that little corner of my room,
But I am left cold and alone.
Its then that the thoughts slip away,
To where it first began.
It wasn’t supposed to be like this…

8 more including the reserved ones! COMEON PPL IM SO IMPATIENT!

(7) Please listen

Please listen
For I will say it
One last time.
I love you more
Than any girl
You will ever know.
Your smile makes
Me happy,
Your voice makes me melt,
Your eyes give me delight
And baby just being you
Gives me hope.

Please listen
And don’t say a word
It is my turn to talk
And if you don’t listen
Then go take a walk.
I love you
And only you
I didn’t realize it before
But baby you and I
Are true.

Please listen
And hear my words,
I love you
And only you.

i really like that jumping bean. You have very original style

sooo....who else wants to write a poem?

yes this is still going, alright great i will reserve it for you.

Lurking in the darkness,
It appears only at night.
Waiting, stalking,
It cowers in the light.

Does it scare you?

Lurking in the darkness.
its waiting for you to arrive.
Decieving, Watching,
You will not survive.

Does it Scare you?

Lurking in the darkness
It preys on the young and old.
Hunting, Preying,
it turns passion deathly cold.

Does it scare you?

Lurking in the darkness,
its about to strike.
Attacking, Killing
its love and hate alike.

Does it scare you?

Lurking in the darkness,
Can't You tell its me?
This is the truth
of what i truly love ot be

I've been waiting, and stalking,
I've been decieving, and watching,
I've been hunting, and preying,
I've been attacking, and killing.

Do i scare you?

-Ms. Arwen

Wicked Lust

She remembers the kisses
remembers the touches
yet sits all alone in the dark
alone in her bedroom

In the club last night
the glances the touch
the rhythmic grind of
their bodies so warm

she remembers alone
wishing for his kiss
the one he gave her
at the club last night

She'll never again
hold, kiss him
so now her body teems
with wicked lost lust

are we done?

omg. whoa..

-crosses fingers-

xlaurenx

Nope, Ebony Eyes is still open and one poem that is reserved has yet to be written/submitted.

I can do Ebony eyes....just give me a few Minutes.

Ebony Eyes

I walked down the street and what did I see, Ebony eyes looking back at me. As black as the night on a cold winter's night, but as warm as the ash fresh from a fire. I turn back to look at the girl with the Ebony eyes, but nowhere behide me she stands. I walk to my house thinking about the girl with the ebony eyes. As I laid my head down to go to sleep, I remember the eyes as well as a little boys kite. The Ebony Eyes were my dead wife's.

great, now we just need Passionate Kiss to be submitted.

Passionate kisses is a sex shop in my city, so i think it be too weird for me to write a poem about that one...I'll leave it up to someone else...:P

i disagree. i think it would be cool if you wrote a poem about a sex shop named Passionate Kisses

Chance, I hope you read this again. I am going to unreserve the title because I have not heard from Aken Sol and I think the contestants are getting anxious. If you would like to submit your poem, that would be great!

Yay. i cant wait for the results(Even tho i didnt place..lol))
