BABYGRACE (ACROSTIC)
by Д βєąµ†ιƒµℓ £ιэ

Born into brothels, she was brother's best
Advice. She lived for the moment & her
Bowie vinyl records spin oldies to gold.
You were the last person to see the teenage
Girl. Best friends become your saddest
Regrets. You think glitter & butterflies
Are going to bleed from your wrists? Case
Closed on Pandora's box. In this bullet lies my
Every hope. There's nobody left to grieve.

This world is dead, there is no hope
not one survived not even the pope
the world has been destroyed, the light has faded. what happened to everything God had created?

all this around me can't be true
what happened to everything i ever knew? all these things must be real
it caused wounds that will never heal. we were all paralyzed by our fears, and now we are all drowning in our own tears.

our friends are all rotten, our family dead. we pray to our God, to heaven their led. our life comes down and crashes, all that remains are ashes. every thing's burnt, destroyed, blown up. in the remains of the church lies the bishop.

no love remains, there's only hate.
perhaps in fact, this was our fate.
and after this you'd think they'd stop. the water that's left are just tear drops.

enough blood has shed, please stop this now. go on shake hands, in fact just bow. throw guns away, destroy them all. keep on fighting and you'll all fall.

But go ahead and lay more to rest, at least you'll say you did your best. perhaps there still might be a chance, to rebuild this planet, destroy the trance. but the minute another gun is fired, our hope is gone, our chance backfired.

As the blood spills down my arm,
My thoughts grow rash.
I cut too deep too long,
This time I will have to pay.

The note I left,
Sorrows shall be found and fed,
When the sun rises in the morning,
Then they will have a better understanding.

My legs, and arms, all cut up,
Bloody, torn,
To match my insides, all torn up!
Never again to have to deal with it.

I am the one in control of fate,
My fate, my walk, my journey...
Will soon end, with a bloody,
Note, body, life, and smile.

I laugh at all of you,
Those I left behind.
I guess I have cut too deep for too long!
Maybe this wasn't such a good end.

I start to second guess myself,
Guessing now its too late.
An addict to just one more cut,
One more dice of the skin.

Its over, ended, stopped.
Finally no more earthly pain,
No suffering, no torment.
Its gone and dealt with.

My body found,
Found by the one who wasn't meant to.
My sister, my little baby sister,
Stumbled upon my body. It was a chance I took!

She laid down beside me,
Her ardent body, against my piercing lifeless one.
The innocence oozing out of her, Death firmly planted on me.
Tears drip silently down her cheek.

Carved into my arm was,
"I'm sorry", how can I not be.
Leaving them, all alone..
It is once again my fault.

Do not mourn for me,
Not a single tear to be shed.
I am not worth your pain,
I'm worth more dead.

~Flying High~

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 hope you still love me too."

~*Who Cares?*~

It was a strange combination
of love and a fatal reaction
It was a concealment for the face
a heart that didn't know it's place

There are consequences for every action
based upon every conviction
Not all of them turn out right
Most leaving the family in blight

A story of a family's tragic vacation
caused by a young girl's silent commotion
She hated her life, she hated her money
All she wanted was to be loved by many

For her birthday, she wanted a trip
Careful not to make her big plan slip
They reached there by plane, a quarter to eight
She set her mind on her date with fate

"I'm a bit tired, you guys go on ahead"
She watched them leave, just as she said
Night wandered in and covered the place
Cold eyes stared out from her face

She writes a brief note with her last breath
Words explaining the reasons for her death
All she wanted was love, not what money could buy
Now it's too late, she has said her good-bye

Into the sky, with her eyes closed tight
She lets go of her remaining life light
Fading...dying, her memories, her dreams
The night filled with her parent's scream

They found her note, then her withered body
Lying on the ground where everybody could see
They held each other, mourned and cried
Something inside each of them seemed to have died

My health
by ♪↑Musicians Finest♪↑

Dripping and dropping
the blood is not stopping,
its going from my heart out my wrist,
my body twists
and turns
as my heart burns and burns,
and she watches and laughs,
looks at my photographs
and realizes that she dint love me at all,
and just threw me on the wall,
just to watch me fall
and crawl,
shes playing dodge ball
and throwing the rubber balls at my face,
at me the disgrace,
to leave a trace
of remarks
blowing sparks
in my head,
crying on the bed,
thinking of what she said,
and how,
she dint wanna hurt me,
but yet shes playing me dirty,
I got mud, dirt,
blood, stains on my shirt,
for every piece of hurt,
she ever threw at me,
I'm laffy taffy,
i last only for so long,
then lose my strong,
and start to do wrong
i need to correct,
my intellect,
but i got no respect,
so what the heck,
i should splatter my brains right on this deck
nothing less,
for this test,
causing me stress,
i might as well be a girl and wear a dress,
b/c I'm so Emotional,
and I'm starting to tear,
the thought of her losing..thats was my fear,
and now I'm living my fear,
I'm feeling my tear,
it just stands UN-clear,
I'm the only one out there,
and i need some help,
before i do something that can damage my health

Damn i have no chance since Noni's entered.
damn it.
oh well i can only try.

For Your Magesty

I bow to the King and Queen,
On a throne of magestic gold,
I vow to them I do not plea,
'Tempt me this fate I hold.'

They cackle and simply push me down,
And await my final last,
I then rest my head to the floor,
Then blank of all my past,

Execution of this love,
I hold for dearest friend,
But a soul I haven't found,
Although of mine she'd lend,

Man in dark with a covered face,
Hands clasped around his tool,
Razor slices upon my neck,
It's the end of this petty fool,

Upon my knees I bowed again,
For I wished and now in death,
Upon his uprising swing,
I know this was my last of breath.

Say Goodbye

A sea of emotions swim through my veins,
and at this very moment
I know life will never be the same!
For the echoing of the darkness
Are ringing bells of pain!
And the hatred should fade with time,
But it could choose to stay.
And then my sanity will be the torturing source of shame!

For death claimed another face,
That no other person can replace.
An angel destined to die,
How can it be?
What was he thinking?
To burden us with deceit!
The anger burns crystal and dark,
Death ripped my life apart!

Like crimson raindrops, tears christen my cheeks,
The desire for hope refuses to speak
and around me the truth begins to scream....
As they set her soul free,
So many around me share my grief
"Breathe now
You still can!"
But how.......
when such beauty was removed by man?

Fears echo inside and out,
Love is beautiful, this I start to doubt.
Love brought this pain,
Like a wilting flower robbed of rain,
There's nothing left of me
An empty torn soul which will never believe!!!

Fly now, let her soul free,
There's nothing but hatred to breathe.
A golden angel cannot shine,
If her heart is stolen and deceived!
What was taken cannot be replaced,

But say goodbye now...
Reality you must face!

~Everlasting Mirth~

When I die, I will not be placed beside my pen,
nor will my soul dwindle on this petty earth.
Both will rise, one in glory, the other in fame,
and all will share in my everlasting mirth.

To my dirge, pen strokes will do a final dance,
words that kept me afloat, will no longer wade.
Writes left unpublished will be known to my askance,
yet I will be forgotten, as the ink eventually fades.

The portrait of my life, painted with caliginous words,
will be placed upon my headstone, in a grassy heap.
Forever I'll lay somber, where I've been interred,
for what in life I sowed, shall be eternally reaped.

Blenching pages will not outlive this web I've woven,
within these forums my heart is willingly expelled.
Never will fame surmount the ties of this poetic brethren,
nor will death seperate me from the bonds I've withheld.

Superman's Dead
by †!♪~*`Bryce Dressler`*~♪!†

Johnny J Smith
had straight A's in school.
Class president every year
he never broke the rules.

Had the coolest friends
never got in fights.
But his friends never saw him
after school at night.

Every problem thrown his way
he fought it to the end.
His family and friends
referred to him as superman.

Saving damsels in distress
standing up for the weak.
He had the intelligence of a genius
the room was always quite when he'd speak.

But nobody knew what happened
late every single night.
When Johnny was caught in the middle
of his mother and father's fight.

Every day after school
Johnny would walk home alone.
Come home to his parents,
to a family with a heart of stone.

Objects were thrown
as they fly across his face.
He tried so hard to please
but he was seen as a disgrace.

His grades would start to slip
and he would fight even more.
But the more that he fought
the harder he was thrown to the floor.

Friends began to leave him
people ignored him as he spoke
as hard as he tried to fix it all
his life was only seen as a joke.

Bottles and knives still flying
from one room to the next.
Giving up on everything else
he took advantage of one object.

He slowly cried as the pain took hold
remembering the life once adored.
Brought down to this sham
a life now ignored.

With his last remaining minute
he reached for a paper and pen.
Leaving a note for whoever cared
or cared for a life that once had been.

Days had past since then
before he was found
his parents killed each other
the house no longer made a sound.

Old friends came again
to see the horrible site
No soon after did they find the note
that the young boy did write.

Everyone held their breath
as the note was slowly read.
Written with four crimson words
"Your Superman is Dead."

(C) 2006 Bryce Dressler

does it have to be new?

Metal of Hunger

Metal of hunger embraced,
Shadowed residue behind,
Starved ecstasy's skeletal,
.....frame,
Unbuttoned mind decreed,
Stained midnight printed,
Ink within hollow breath,
....hushed,
Delicate bookmarked life,
Tattooed on freckled skin,
Slipping curtained sheets,
.....within,
Weaving spiderweb poison,
Through emaciated veins,
Handcuffed needle hands,
....search me.

Forever?....Wake me up.

My soul has been destroyed..
by ¤• נєѕѕу •¤ ™

My soul
Has been destroyed
Ripped,
Thrown down,
And stepped on
You looked at me
With those hateful eyes
And said
I am sorry,
But I just
Dont love you anymore..

These words
These 10 words
Are what killed me
Are what destroyed me
And you say them
Without a second glance..

I felt more pain
Than you could ever imagine
I felt so much
That I did not know
What to do..

So I picked up a knife
My tearful reflection
Shined in the evil blade

I started carefully at first
Watching the scarlet blood
Run from my veins
And drip silently to the floor

But the pain still
Drowned my soul
So the next time I put it in deeper
Deeper and deeper
Into my pale flesh..

The pain suddenly stopped
And I fell to the ground
As I laid there
My body became
Enveloped in a huge
Pool of blood
And as the last drop
Fell from my unmoving body
I was finally free..

dun mean to correct you or anything but u kno thats only 14...and u said maybe 15...yeah well maybe im wrong..just thot id tell u..

Hide my Pain
by ŘÅÇĦ♥

A girl hides her pain
from everyone around
trying not to cry
wishing pain would magically fade away

Everyone thinks she is ok
no one knows how she feels

The chaos in her life is overwhelming
the pain consumes her little by little
until it has her soul

There is no peace she can find
she misses her old life
what she used to have
until grief took it away
and never gave it back

she sits in her room wondering
"why me?"
"Better me than someone else"

The people she loves
tell her things will get better
when they get worse and worse

Her parents fight in the background
her mind wonders
where no mind should wonder
she wishes she could understand what went wrong,
where did the life she once love end....
--Rachel

Hope I got it in soon enough.

xD
keep rockin' poeteers

You were young,
Death is near,
you were with us all a week ago,
seeing you smile,
hearing you laugh,
seeing your face,
made all of our days turn to Sunshine,
now that you're gone,
i don't think things will ever be the same,
i don't think this pain will ever go away,
all of us sit here in shock still,
as hours pass by,
we cry and weep,
but nothing will change,
nothing will bring you back,
you're gone for good,
And some of just sit here,
and think why,
did this happen to you??,
you were so young,
And while others,
are sad because the didn't even say good bye,
and all we have left are memories,
some bad or good,
but we will hold them in our hearts forever,
and some of us sit,
and wish we had gotten to know him a lot better,
we cant bring you back,
theirs nothing we can do,
but pray and hope that you are listening to the,
words that we say to you,
and hope that you're watching over us this very moment,
we miss you,
we love you,
we all wish that this didn't happen,
but god wanted another angel,
and it was you,
and now when ever i remember you..
i smile, and laugh,
and cry,
