    Can we use multiple lines in the poem, but base it off one?
    I really like these lines and want to use them:
    2. The heavens wither at the touch of my hand
    5. Summer is killed by the fall of my soul
    6. You live like you're dying, hiding from the sun

    They all kind of relate...So, can I use them all? They're such good lines! If not...Then...I would have to take
    *2. The heavens wither at the touch of my hand..

    Gaining Control
    By: Twisted Heart

    Paint the walls, fight again, I'm past the point of self control
    No longer one to cower down to your heartless fists, so cold.
    I've done it, now, I've left the mark, upon the bed we shared
    Too many times I came home and found you in a stupor there.

    Your tainted words have caused me grief for many lonely nights
    But now I can't hear them echoing over the sirens and the lights.
    The house in blazes, here I stand, silently outside the gate
    Waiting for the flames to die and the coroner to take you away

    Just charred and blackened ashes,like your heart and soul
    Finally some satisfaction, as I feel you loosen your hurtful hold.
    No longer will your words and fists, rebound inside my mind
    I inhale the burnt smoke's umbers as they fade with time.

    My neighbor takes me to the station, a statement I must sign
    It was a cigarette you smoked, and with whiskey spilt combined
    Was I there, I was at work, at least that's what they think
    And this black eyes, the end result, of falling against the kitchen sink.

    No longer happy pictures of our love built by deceit
    I no longer have to make excuses, for your death has set me free
    When asked to make arrangements, to lay your soul to rest
    I'll gladly bare the full expense, for my freedoms worth the best.

    If I have thoughts of conscience, don't think they're all for you
    I've suffered all these many years for the pain you put me through
    But sometimes, I regret the fact, that now I have become
    A soul that's trapped inside a heart that's built for only one.

    I've Woken To Find Myself In The Shadows Of The Past
    by: Ciao♥

    I've woken to find my self in the shadows of the past
    Hardly realizing that this, somehow, won't last

    So I make the best of it, and try to find you
    I try to go back to the times before we were through

    I flash through the memories and remember them all
    Everything up to the moment that I would fall

    But I don't dwell there, instead at the happier times
    I remember the moment that you were finally mine

    How happy a day, the memories come in clear
    Those were the times I had nothing to fear

    Then that fateful December day, the day we kissed
    How I would never forget this

    Then the times I swore not to relive
    I couldn't do it, I just couldn't give

    So I went back to the happy ones of you
    I walked through them, one by one, my smile grew

    I remember the way your cologne would smell when we would hug
    I remember the way I would teasingly, be a big bug

    I remember the way I would help you with your work
    I didn't think it was much of a job, more like a perk

    I look back on the days we would spend together
    I can't believe that this is not forever

    You told me something so long ago
    I promised to treasure our love and let it grow

    Distance makes the heart grow fonder
    But to you, my mind will wander

    No one can replace the way you could make me feel
    That's a feeling that just has to be real

    After some troubled times, you came back to me
    But things were different, we were no longer a we

    I hurt you bad and you hurt me too
    But look at us now, we made it through

    So when you come back to me sometime soon
    I promise to celebrate your day in June

    So as I lay down to sleep to come back home
    I pray to God that you won't be alone

    Just whisper my name and you know I'll hear
    And just pretend that I'm somewhere near

    So I waken from this vivid dream to see you standing here
    I swear to God I thought you would never come back near

    So as I embrace you, the memories join
    Our souls and hearts finally rejoin

    wow i actually finished it:P only took a couple minutes though but i like it :P anyways here is mine with the line: Ive woken to find myself in the shadows of my past.

    I remember a time,
    Ten years before the present,
    A day when I was immoral,
    A side of me I resent,

    I was a slave,
    To my own deceitful lies,
    Its something that wont leave,
    A side of my I despise,

    I am now clean,
    I cut no longer,
    Ive stopped the urge,
    And I have become stronger,

    As I fall asleep,
    I have a vision,
    In this dream I cut,
    And make a deep incision,

    I realize I already woke,
    This breath could be my last,
    Ive woken to find myself,
    In the shadows of my past,

    I was a slave,
    To my own deceitful lies,
    Its something that wont leave,
    A side of me which has become my demise

    I wish i could think of something else for the second last stanza but nothing is coming to mind its just making me feel like its ruining the poem lol...if there are any suggestions please send them my way...but umm anyways theres my poem

    The Shadows of My Past
    By: Ashley Paul

    My past wasn't so pleasant
    Somethings I hoped would end fast
    One time I thought it was over
    but I've woken to find myself in the shadows of my past

    Some how it came back to haunt me
    many years ago
    And thats not all that came back
    In my heart, I could feel past pain drilling a hole.

    This hole in my heart hurt ferociously
    and slowed down my heart's beat
    waking up in the mornings
    I stand to my feet

    Eager for the day to end
    Praying to not be hurt
    Hoping for my problems to decrease
    Needing to stay alert.

    The harder that I strive to forget my past
    The harder it is to get away
    I hope to someday value my life
    when my past becomes today

    And if my future changes again
    And I don't want my life to last
    I hope one thing will happen when I wake...
    to find myself in the shadows of my past

    Me And My Reflection.

    Crocodile tears streak down my wretched face,
    As my ashen fingernails lightly trace,
    Along my withering cheeks of porcelain,
    Etching flaws out of my plastic barbie skin.

    The rain trickles onto the window pane,
    As I look upon my reflection in vain,
    Secrets burn in my eyes of baby blue,
    As my mouth tells the stories so untrue.

    The shattered voices echo inside my head,
    As I play back every lie I have ever said,
    Wondering:between me and my reflection,
    whom do you love in this imperfection?

    --------------------------------------
    The End of the World {The Heavens Wither At The Touch of My Hand}

    The heavens wither at the touch of my hand,
    Gods cry out, falling to my every command.
    Thunderous applauds rupture the land,
    Gods fall, crying to my command.

    Twenty-thousand armies dance across the soil,
    Over a puzzling decision they must toil.
    Protecting their Gods' dashing royal;
    Wonderous decisions they must toil.

    Hitting the ground in rumorus praise,
    Laughing about in mysterious ways.
    Glancing around for these broken days,
    For about mysterious laughs of simple ways.

    One by one, deathly armies gladly take,
    What was never theirs in this ending wake.
    Yet, still they steal for their Gods' sake,
    Never was it theirs in this ending wake.

    The world crumbles, piece by piece,
    The never ending love of Heaven cease.
    The Gods of armies stand by a crease,
    Of Heavens' end, the love will cease.

    DREAM and FEEL

    i dream what you're dreaming
    i feel what you're feeling
    but can you feel the hurt inside buried?
    the dreams of you, how i want us to be badly married?
    can you feel the actions how you treat me everyday?
    the dreams i have i badly want to go away
    feelings i want to just let it out
    dreams i wish could happen, but that's a doubt

    who knew you'll change that quickly?
    and how you could just say BYE or OVER to me?
    you weren't the guy i used to know
    the guy who is now, is the one who let me go
    i wish i didn't let this to happen
    then i guess everything would be happy, and the sadness will end
    i just wish i never met you
    and not to hear the words said back to me "i love you too"

    i'm you're acting like a damn saint.

    sry i took so long i didnt remember reserving anything:P here it is

    10 Darkness

    Darkness surrounding, chocking in the black,
    Can’t breathe, it burns, sending shivers up my back.
    Smoke filling the air and my lungs, got to leave,
    Trying to breathe air through the filter of my sleeve.

    Fire burning my skin, continue to run,
    Hard to believe earlier I was just having fun.
    Light headed and woozy, reaching the front door,
    Taking a deep breath, unknowing what’s in store.

    Where’s my family? What about my pets?
    Are they safe, or in the fiery deaths?
    Call 911, firemen arrive in their big red truck,
    Neighbors gathering around, but my family’s stuck!

    The house is burning! “Hurry!” I shout,
    They extinguish it, but not I cry and pout.
    My family’s gone, the perished in the in smoke,
    Where will I do now? In my tears I choke.

    All that is left is to find someplace new,
    Now that my life has been thrown askew.
    Now I'm just waiting for the sun,
    For we have no where to run…
