    Life’s Becoming Fantasies

    Fairytales are really stories,
    Or so I have been told.
    Lately I can’t tell the difference.
    I’ve been bought on lies sold.

    Since you’ve entered my life,
    Reality and dreams blur.
    What seems real to me, may not be,
    But I’m never quite sure.

    I see white horses and sunsets.
    You appear as a prince.
    There is no one else like you.
    I’ve not been the same since.

    Cinderella seems just as real
    As any other girl.
    And there are times I believe
    She lives in this world.

    For, how can I live a fairytale
    And the ones I read be lies?
    They must be based upon some truth,
    Like the truth in your eyes.

    For when I’m with you, I feel
    The world’s a safe place.
    Though it’s filled with lots of danger,
    I see hope in your face.

    Love is more than a long kiss
    On those big movie screens.
    You showed me it can happen,
    Not just in romantic scenes.

    So though my heart was once locked,
    I’ll hand you the keys.
    You’ve shown me the truest love
    And life’s becoming fantasies.

    Blossoms of Bliss and Petals of Peril

    Thy green eyes glisten when you see
    The beauty blooming in front of thee -
    These roses seem made out of snow
    And the garden whitens as more roses grow.

    Their sweet perfume such a delight
    Only persists in the full moon night
    As the cold silver beams outline
    These beauties in a way so sublime.

    Two lovers found shelter here -
    In this garden you feel without fear,
    Everything around seems covered in bliss,
    But many lovers here shared their last kiss.

    White roses lure you into their trap
    They poison you with their dripping sap
    And fragile petals fall gently on your face
    To hide the flesh decaying in disgrace…

    A raven from afar sings with grief,
    Black feathers fall for a funeral motif
    As the roses are slowly turning red
    Like the color of the innocent blood shed.

    Hope you like it =)

    Times clicking slowly

    When they called to tell me the news
    Told me you were gone
    My heart started to hurt
    like it was hit by a bomb

    Like I've been bum rushed
    It took me by surprise
    It wasn't long
    till the tears rolled from my eyes

    I prayed to God
    and hoped that this was all a game
    That when I wake up
    Everything will be back to being the same

    But still as I sit here
    writing this poem to you
    thinking about
    all the things that we used to do

    I know your not coming back
    and I wont hear your voice again
    But always in my heart
    you will be my best friend

    Missing You.
    By: Jenna. Elphick

    "Hello Darling, I miss you quite terribly,"
    (He mutters under his breath to a torn photograph.)
    "So tragic - losing you to the bright city,"
    (He holds the picture close to his heart.)
    "Your ways have changed, they ate you alive,"
    (Tears roll down from his lonely eyes.)
    "There's no turning back for you; you're stuck,"
    (He stares to the photo at the girl he once knew.)
    "I told you I'd wait for you forever, but it's been too long,"
    (He takes a shot of whiskey and slams the bottle down.)
    "And forever never seemed so damn far away,"
    (He wipes the tears from his cheek.)
    "But I'm missing you babe...missing you,"
    (He grips the picture tightly in his sweating palm.)
    "My words are slurred and my head is pounding,"
    (He engraves her name into a silver bullet.)
    "But these four walls are taking my breath away,"
    (He looks to the memories surrounding him.)
    "And no longer will I stand here and fight for you,"
    (He loads the gun and holds it to his beating temple.)
    "When I know you're not fighting for me,"
    (He lays his shaking finger upon the trigger.)
    "But I'm missing you babe...missing you,"
    (He gently pushes the trigger down as he takes a deep breath.)
    "So call me a liar for not waiting; I couldn't do this anymore..."
    (He pushes the trigger as blood enlaces the walls around him.)

    "Oh my Darling, how I do miss you so,"
    (She whsipers as she packs her bags.)
    "This life has taken a hold of me,"
    (She stares to a shattered picture frame.)
    "And I am ready to come home now,"
    (She zips her bag and grabs her smokes.)
    "I know you told me you'd wait forever,"
    (She turns off the light and opens the door.)
    "But if you moved on, I don't blame you,"
    (She walks down the hall toward the doors.)
    "I guess I just wanted to say; I'm missing you babe...missing you,"
    (She waves good-bye to the clerk and opens the door.)
    "A twelve hour bus ride and I'll be home in your arms,"
    (She gets her ticket stamped and boards the empty bus.)
    "And I promise I will never leave your side again,"
    (She puts her bags down and sits in the torn seat.)
    " 'Cause I'm missing you babe...missing you."
    (The bus starts down the deserted highway as she closes her eyes.)

    "Hello Darling, I miss you quite terribly,
    So tragic - losing you to the bright city,
    Your ways have changed; they ate you alive,
    There's no turning back for you - you're stuck.
    I told you I'd wait for you forever; but It's been too long,
    And forever never seemed so damn far away!
    But I'm missing you babe...missing you,
    My words are slurred and my head is pounding,
    But these four walls are taking my breath away.
    And no longer will I stand here and fight for you,
    When I know you're not fighting for me.
    But I'm missing you babe...missing you,
    So call me a liar for not waiting; I can't do this anymore..."

    (The burning angels read aloud as they mourned this tragic affair,
    Of two torn lovers entwined in blood from this despair.
    Tears rolled down from their blood stained eyes,
    As they read the smeared ink scribbled between the lines.)

    "Oh my Darling, how I do miss you so,
    This life has taken a hold of me -
    And I am ready to come home now.
    I know you told me you'd wait forever,
    But if you moved on; I don't blame you.
    I guess I just wanted to say; I'm missing you babe...missing you.
    A twelve hour bus ride and I'll be home in your arms,
    And I promise I will never leave your side again;
    'Cause I'm missing you babe...missing you."

    (Words echoed through a sober angels head,
    As she found the secrets coated in red.
    Two promises kept hidden in two decaying hearts,
    She knows the story - she played the part.)

    Broken Chains [Kyrielle]
    by ѕ¢αяℓєт.ℓιρѕ ♥

    Climbing on jagged steps from the hell below
    Rips and tears throughout her soul she does sew
    Her body cleared of dirt, yet a little still remains
    All evil she has shed, except her rusty broken chains..

    Quickly sucking the deadly poison out of the snake bite
    Running from the blackness, chasing after the white
    Bleaching away at her mind, washing away the stains
    All evil she has shed, except her rusty broken chains..

    Her past slowly fading, finally fitting in with the crowd
    Cleaning herself up, floating happily on her own cloud
    A body now pure and free, yet evil still lingers in veins
    All evil she has shed, except her rusty broken chains..

    ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
    Kyrielle is written in quatrains. Each quatrain has a refrain, which usually appears in the last line of the stanza. There is no limit to the amount of stanzas a Kyrielle has, but must have at least 3. There must be a rhyme scheme.

    Lustful eyes(parrquette)

    Lustful eyes scan the night
    Eyes fall upon me
    I have the one I love,
    but declining is still a fight.

    Lustful eyes scan the night.
    While the shameless heart targets me
    Eyes brazenly emerged determined to rule
    Only my lovers eyes shall I see.

    Lustful eyes scan the night.
    Thy tender innocence on display,
    Jealous hearts about to break,
    as it's only my lovers name I shall say.

    Lustful eyes scan the night,
    dancing indisputably with thy other half
    develish eyes hoplessly departed
    as our romance goes on uncharted.

    Xx Execrated Lips xX

    I feel myself falling
    Deep under your spell
    I can’t make a sound
    Not a whimper or yell

    You stretch out a hand
    Almost in slow motion
    Your face doesn’t change
    It’s void of emotion

    Your execrated lips
    Painted blood red
    Give way in a smile
    And fill me with dread

    You step forward closer
    One step at a time
    I can’t look away
    As you slowly sublime

    You come nearer still
    I’m unable to stir
    I know what you want
    You want me to defer

    I wrench my eyes shut
    And let out a scream
    Knowing deep down
    You must be a dream

    I peek through my lashes
    Your nowhere around
    But I know you’ll be back
    I’m the victim you hound ©

    I Had fun writing this one.

    good job.

    Broken Chains

    With broken chains I’m bound,
    Into this world of hate,
    I see beyond the fears of all,
    With useless appeals of fate,

    Your judging lies and games,
    In which I can’t understand,
    I’ve played with these thoughts,
    And followed every command,

    But now it’s almost over,
    An I can see what’s become,
    The Wealthiest of families,
    Have finally succumb,

    I’ll Carry the weight of the world,
    And keep what’s left beneath me,
    I’ll Hide it from what it is,
    So no one will truly see,

    Just undo these chains,
    I’ve broken for you,
    What locks me down,
    I can’t brake through,

    Breathless and in pain,
    I fight for what is true,
    I’ll Face this world forever,
    To prove my love for you,

    Although again I’ve lost,
    In this place so profound,
    All never feel for you
    With these broken chains I’m bound.

    May I please do The battles became war. I had a poem I had written last month, and this line would fit perfectly into the theme of the poem. It also allowed me to add a few more lines into it making it more in depth.

    The Heritage of Dixie

    A St. Andrews cross that bore thirteen stars,
    Pride and Heritage, written in memoirs,
    Hate and Venom is spewn at the cloth,
    True History of which you know not of,
    For the war, colored was just an excuse,
    For my ancestral heritage, I take abuse,
    A history lesson that you need to learn,
    If truths were known you’d have no concern,
    All colonies held slaves, not just the south,
    Still hatred comes forth, spit from your mouth,
    Glory given to Lincoln for the proclamation,
    For the flag that I bear I’m sent to damnation,
    He offered to keep slaves, no freedom to bear,
    If in the Southern tariffs the north got a share,
    Over 200 years by northern vessels they came,
    And still it’s the south to who you blame,
    Under old Dixie, not a slave here was brought,
    For ignorant men, my ancestors fought?
    Condemn not the grey for their pride and bravery,
    And own it all up to the freedom of slavery,
    For many a reason the battles became war,
    Now my ancestors and I they abhor,
    Both colored and white men bore the grey uniform,
    Rebels we’re called because we wouldn’t conform,
    If by the flag, there’s guilt by association,
    Then why to the stars and stripes is there no condemnation,
    I hope when I take my very last breath,
    Old Dixie will be draped cross my chest,
    Cause Rebel I will be…..even in Death.

    You’re More Then A Dream

    When I lay in bed to go to sleep,
    I think of all I’ve lost I couldn’t keep.
    I fall asleep, wondering how life would be,
    If everything I missed could return to me.

    I’d take you back in a heart beat, baby,
    But seeing you ever again is a BIG maybe.
    You’re more then a dream, but perfection,
    You could be the definition of affection.

    You were everything I wanted and need,
    I miss you baby, my heart you did feed.
    When I have a nightmare, you save the day,
    Too bad I can’t repay you in some way.

    You’re more then a dream, it wasn’t fake,
    I still love you, despite all your mistakes.
    I might not have meant much, but my heart is true,
    Baby you’re the reason I was born, I miss you.
