    ~Celestial Red (Villanelle)~

    When I saw you fall from heaven, all my morals fled,
    carnal desires flooded my mind, soon we'd be alone.
    Erected thoughts that once stood dormant, now became undead.

    My concerns with chastity, turned to amorality instead,
    sexual verbal libel, brought on an oddly manipulative tone.
    When I saw you fall from heaven, all my morals fled.

    Bestial avidities were promptly, but passionately bred,
    possibilities of platonic relations, were permanently postponed.
    Erected thoughts that once stood dormant, now became undead.

    As you lied upon my mattress, your legs began to spread,
    our intentions were identical, leaving no emotions shown.
    When I saw you fall from heaven, all my morals fled.

    An angelic experience, from the beginning to the end,
    left our names and forgoing histories perpetually unknown.
    Erected thoughts that once stood dormant, now became undead.

    What you thought as eternal innocence, bled celestial red,
    took what was once solely yours, and kept it as my own.
    When I saw you fall from heaven, all my morals fled,
    erected thoughts that once stood dormant, now became undead.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    -A villanelle is a nineteen-line poem consisting of a very specific rhyme scheme: aba aba aba aba aba abaa.

    October Rain

    you don't know how you make me feel, standing here next to you. knowing that i love you, and hoping you love me too. the dark purple sky, with clouds all around. as the soft rain falls on us, and we listen to the sound.

    i wish it would never end, this beautiful October rain, because when i'm with you, i can feel no pain. as we lay on the ground, staring up at a star. i think of all the good times, and how we've come so far.

    had i only just known, it would be our last night. had i only just known, this would be your last sight. i never would have left, from that soft spot on the ground, where we lay every day, because that's where each other, we found.

    but now i'm alone, you're simply a memory. forgotten by all, all of course except me. i kept you in my heart, still you're a shattered dream. i don't want to let go, but you're fading into steam.

    i want to be with you, want to see you anew. so i found out a way, to be with you real soon. and as i pick up this gun, and hold it up to my brain. i'll never forget, that this is my last October Rain.

    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.

    ~Hold me tight~

    Hold me tight
    And never let me go
    Look into my eyes
    As I search your soul.
    Keep me safe
    From all the evil
    Bring me close
    So our hearts
    May beat as one.

    Hold me tight
    Let me feel the warmth
    Whisper in my ear
    And tell me that you care.
    Let me smile
    And let me see you grin
    Never will I forget
    Your tender loving hands.

    Just hold me tight
    Let us enjoy our peace,
    Hold me tight
    And let us put our
    Minds at rest.

    "Day Break"

    Swirling winds surround my thought,
    Cushioning my so very harsh movements!
    Floating atop the wind, you must be near!

    Not quite able to grasp this new found "drug"
    I have begun to rely so heavily upon, this "drug"
    Your love, holds me through it all!

    When daybreak comes I can feel your soft goodbye.
    When daybreak nears hurridly you get ready, ready
    To leave me alone again to float on cloud 9!

    My passion for you is unexplainable, uncharactersitic
    For me, so out of the box! I am a sensible person,
    Not one to fall so rapidly so forcefully!

    Daybreak has come and gone, so many times!
    This daybreak is here, and yet so are you!
    Once again I am atop the wind, floating and basking!

    Love is such a strong, forceful, word, yet it flows
    So gracefully when the thoughts are refering to you!
    My love save me from myself, from it all!

    You caught me when I fell from life, when I
    Couldnt take it any longer, when I didnt have
    The strength to stand, you held me!

    Our love stronger than life, than death, than anything
    Else on this planet, or out of this world! Our love,
    Is saving grace, its fireworks and bells ringing!

    This is real love!
