    ~A Day Of Bliss~

    Let's go chase butterflies
    Into the nights sky,
    Run with Fireflies
    As if we could fly.

    Swim with the fishes
    Under the glossy
    Water world
    Gallop with the horses
    On the soft sandy shore.

    Let the warm summer rain
    Fall upon us
    Our love is strong
    We will soar high
    Above the universe
    Like two doves
    We have become.

    When sunlight awakens
    And kiss us with her glow
    Settle down in our
    Cherry blossom bed
    And listen to the morning song.

    ~I love you Chris~

    My Life on Standby

    The world around, so busy and full,
    Full of excitement, and full of bull.
    Actors saying their lines from the script,
    The women tame, and the class clowns whipped.

    I am on standby, waiting for my scene,
    Waiting for my time, on the big screen.
    Millions of bright stars, yet I so young and dim,
    Millions of Cheerios, yet I'm left on the rim.

    Just another face, on the crowd so large,
    When will be my time to take charge?
    It's my life, by me, just another girl,
    Just another face in this popular world.

    Just another girl, to be teased at school,
    Where I'm a bystander, and I'll never be cool.
    Just another heart, beating every second,
    Just an ordinary girl, waiting to be beckoned.

    It's my life, on standby, there's nothing to tell,
    No point in trying, no reason to yell.
    Just another girl, in a world of millions,
    Just another blue in the box of crayons.

    Waiting for my break, and until then,
    I'll just be pushed and shoved, again and again.
    I will wait, as long as it comes soon,
    I want to finally be able, to sing to my own tune.

    Love (Tetractys)
    Bryan

    ....................Love,
    ....................is like
    ..................the way I
    ...............feel for her, the
    way that her smile can bring me to my knees.
    ...the way I feel when she talks to me, the
    ..............sudden loss of
    .............words when she
    ...................is near,
    .....................love
    ......................is
    ...................the way
    .................I cant help
    ..............but to think of
    her when the nights are cold, the loneliness
    .that tears at my heart as the night goes on.
    ...............the way I feel
    .................for her can
    ...................only be
    .....................love.

    Tectractys is a style that is composed of 5 lines with a syllable count of 1,2,3,4,10.

    double Tectractys is 1,2,3,4,10,10,4,3,2,1.

    a triple 1,2,3,4,10,10,4,3,2,1,1,2,3,4,10

    Xx Deepest Love xX

    I wish that I could find a way
    To find the words I want to say
    To show you how much you mean to me
    You changed my life eternally

    Even though you knew about my past
    You still told me your love would last
    All you had to do was smile
    To make it all seem worth the while

    You demolished my every fear
    And wiped away my every tear
    You were tender with your love and care
    A guy like you is very rare

    When your not there I want to cry
    I always miss you before the goodbye
    You mean everything to me and more
    Every hug you give I'm thankful for

    The way I feel I won't deny
    I'll love you 'til the day I die
    I'm with you 'til the very end
    You're my love and my best friend

    You're in my thoughts and in my dreams
    All the time, that's how it seems
    You are my life, my soul, my heart.
    Promise me we'll never fall apart

    I've finally found my true soul mate
    It was written in the stars as fate
    Marcus, it's like a dream come true
    I've found the deepest love in you

    the letter

    All she wanted was a friend
    everyone just seemed to walk Right by her
    with nothing to say
    she never fit in
    she was always standing out
    she was always picked last
    she was never picked first
    she never seemed to do anything Right
    then one night
    the only person that made her special was know longer there to wipe away her tears
    she pulled out a knife
    she didn't think twice
    she was about to end her life
    then she saw a paper on the floor
    she picked it up and read it out
    it'' you may not always fit in but you will always have a special place in my heart''
    she put down the knife
    she never did end her life
    on that night she learned something she never knew
    you may not fit in at school
    you may not always be cool
    but someone out there really cares
    about you

    next

    It all happened so fast
    it feels like only minutes when really it has been years
    as years go by the past becomes more really
    as memories start to fade pain take there place
    i no the past is really
    but sometimes everything feels
    like a story being read out loud and not knowing what is going to happen

    If I Could
    Bryan

    If I could paint the sky
    it would be of her beautiful face,
    I would realign the stars
    and the planets in this empty space.

    This overbearing weight that I have
    is just tearing me apart,
    the hole that she cut inside
    has almost diminished my heart.

    Its not easy bearing the words
    when she told me she loved me not,
    slowly my mind begins to realize
    what it had only just forgot.

    She wont ever feel this way
    though I wish she would,
    I wish I could end this pain
    if only my heart could.

    These words that I say
    you've always known was true,
    even though you don't
    I will always be in love with you.

    The One Man Show {Terzanelle}

    Eternity is his final destination
    Promenading to a song sung within his head
    Eternity is his final destination
    Across the mighty world is where he may tread.
    Burning within his heart, within his soul - fire
    Promenading to a song sung within his head
    Declaring eternity, 'Be my desire!'
    A magical treasure sings deep within his thoughts
    Burning within his heart, within his soul - fire
    As the dances surround him singing secret plots.
    A figure shallow snickering with hidden truths
    A magical treasure sings deep within his heart
    Dangling circles behind him - his shattered youth
    The music is his home from which shall never part
    A figure shallow snickering with hidden truths
    The 'One Man' show excitedly begins to start
    Eternity is his final destination
    The music is his home from which shall never part
    Eternity is his final destination

    --------------------------------------------

    The Terzanelle is a 19-line poem consisting of five interlocking triplets plus a concluding quatrain
    in which the first and third lines of the first triplet appear as refrains. The middle line of each triplet
    is a repeated reappearing as the last line of the succeeding triplet with the exception of the center
    line of the next-to-the-last stanza which appears in the quatrain. The rhyme and refrain scheme
    for the triplets is as follows:

    1. A
    2. B
    3. A
    4. b
    5. C
    6. B
    7. c
    8. D
    9. C
    10. d
    11. E
    12. D
    13. e
    14. F
    15. E
    16. f
    17. A or F
    18. F or A
    19. A

    Each line of the poem should be the same metrical length

    Where You Sleep
    by Twisted Heart

    Inside the mind are webs of pain that traps you like a vise
    They follow you through all you do and right into the night
    Within your dreams they whisper, calling to your weakened soul
    Shattering resistance that has left you in the cold.

    A bed of broken promises now hold your heart that weeps
    And though you lay your head down, you fail to go to sleep
    For memories have consumed your mind and makes it hard to rest
    Because the empty heart you have has crumbled from distress.

    Among the ashen embers of your faith that held you strong
    Now lies the barren wasteland of your soul that carried on
    Into the mist of heartache that cries for sweet release
    Is a sanctuary that will harvest all your grief.

    Don't search for what you know is lost or what you cannot find
    Forever they will trap you, fast, within the web of time
    They'll spin you in delusion and confusion will make you weak
    And hinder you the sanctity of where you finally sleep.

    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 it's 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. If someone would have told me it would be your last sight. I never would have let you go, as we walked around, and listened to the wind blow.

    However now i'm alone, you're simply a memory. forgotten by all, all of course except me. I kept you in my heart, but it just caused me pain. As I tried to hold on, I started going insane.

    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.

    An Ocean

    Depth,
    Mystery,
    An ocean.

    We've only breached the surface.
    Always growing with age,
    We'll never reach the bottom.
    Always drowning halfway,
    It will be the end,
    Of our journey there.

    Depth,
    Mystery,
    An ocean,
    It will never be fully discovered.

    Sign My Fate

    I loved you,
    With everything I possessed-
    And you stole it from me,
    Now I have nothing left...
    Just a mask and a broken heart
    You didn't have punish me,
    for loving you so much!
    I don't see what was so wrong
    About you and me being 'US'.
    You know I watched you turn away
    And it felt like,
    someone was tearing at my bleeding flesh...
    Like long bony hands of hate
    Ripping my heart out of my chest!
    I heard you tell you loved her,
    Knowing I would hear.
    The pain of hearing your hate,
    Carves away my skin-
    With a blunt acidic knife...
    It carves away my dreams.
    And I'm watching you live your life that way,
    I'm watching the laugh and smile.
    Then I'm looking at how worthless I've become-
    Ho I hate the world so much.
    Realizing we're over for good
    Is more then my heart can take.
    Here's my death certificate............
    Sign it with my fate!

    The end
    by Silhouette, of something unimaginable

    Looking down at you
    from the balcony
    you can't see me
    but you know I'm here
    tears trail down my face
    as you look up i look away

    why must i love you
    for in the end
    we shall never be

    you climb the stairs
    looking for me
    i run to hide
    but you catch a glimpse of me
    in a room i flee to hide
    but you're right behind me

    why must i love you
    for in the end
    we shall never be

    trapped in a room with you
    crying, i fall
    you try to help
    i just push you away
    "please let me help you"
    i don't want or need it

    why must i love you
    for in the end
    we shall never be

    i turn my back to you
    you ask "what is wrong"
    all i can say
    "love is deadly
    it hurts too much"
    "no it doesn't" you say

    why must i love you
    for in the end
    we shall never be

    "why does it hurt?"
    you ask "please tell me"
    love never lasts
    i cry, tears coming down hard
    you'll be fine my love
    we shall be together

    why must i love you
    for in the end
    we shall always be

    By My Side
    x3Lauren

    I want to be,
    next to you.
    I miss you when,
    you're far away.
    being with you,
    makes my day.

    I need you to be near,
    when you're here,
    I have no fear.
    but when you leave,
    when you're gone,
    I'm forgotten.
    abandoned.
    left out,
    in the cold.

    I cry,
    I die,
    Inside,
    it kills me.
    I can't survive,
    without you.
    I can't deny,
    I need you..

    I need you to,
    be by my side,
    for me to hide,
    sheltered behind.
    this burning desire,
    like gasoline,
    on fire
    ecstasy-
    only higher,
    but then I learn...
    you're a liar

    a cheat
    a sneak
    a crook
    like, a coded book..

    a story consisting,
    of torn pages.
    and forgotten,
    lies.
    i forgot to read,
    between the
    broken lines.

    now I see,
    how you're a fake.
    it's like finally,
    I've begun to wake.
    from a clouded dream,
    an incubus
    of screams.
    a nightmare,
    of lies,
    atleast,
    that's what it seems.

    now everything,
    is back,
    to the way
    it used to be.
    nothing is right,
    there is no more light,
    the world is
    covered,
    smoldered in night.
    the eyes of the people,
    are shadowed,
    in fright.

    I can't look you
    in the eyes.
    can't face,
    your demonic lies.
    I can never,
    bear the sight.
    because of you,
    I will never
    be alright.
    your lies show the fact,
    that you never feel contrite.
    this spark of hatre
    is what,
    you ignite.

    your lies,
    they kill me,
    burn me inside.
    make me feel,
    a desperate
    need to hide.
    can't you tell?
    that it's you
    I despise?

    please leave me.
    just forget me.
    I desperately need,
    for you to regret me.

    just find,
    someone else.
    to torment.
    to torture.
    to curse.

    and to make their lives
    miserably worse

    please find,
    another girl,
    to kill,
    with your lies.
    because no more tears,
    will fall
    from these eyes.
    these cheeks,
    shall be dry.
    I will never again cry...

    But I want,
    you to know,
    that I still
    need you...
    by my side.

    This is an old poem of mine, brings back a lot of old memories...

    The Day We Met

    The day we met I loved you then
    It seems that's how it's always been.
    But a love like ours just couldn't last
    I guess it grew and died too fast.
    I love you now, but you're not here.
    You're all I need I want you near.
    The feelings left just overnight,
    But I still want you wrong or right.

    When you first told me it was through,
    I thought I'd die not having you.
    But as the days went passing by
    I learned to live though still I cry.
    It looks like now you're gone for good,
    I'd take you back now if I could.
    You'd only break my heart again
    And try to tell me we're still friends.
    A friend is something you can't be
    You'll always mean much more to me.

    So loving you while you're away
    Your memory helps me live each day.
    Passing time will only see
    An even greater love in me.
    I never liked to say goodbye
    That's one word that could make me cry,
    But even if it's left unsaid,
    The love you had for me is dead.

    Good bye my love, with this I'll end
    And no more will my heart pretend....

    ....the day we met I loved you then
    It seems that's how it's always been.

    Survival of the Fittest
    by John graver

    Two join to make one, a new life is born.
    Creation takes flight one magical morn.
    Survival not love is is what they seek.
    The strong will go on death to the meek.
    So goes the law in the nature's world.
    Wild and different their majesty unfurls.
    Bringing with them the wonders of the land.
    Much of which we men cannot truly understand.
    We live for money, power, and fame.
    It will be our downfall, these vices we can't abstain.
    Theres much we can learn from nature and the wild.
    How to properly provide, how to raise a child.
    We are the blight who destroys the land.
    Drugs in our veins, nukes in our hands.
    Mother Nature is tired of our evil ways.
    Maybe she'll end us with one mighty shake.
    We've scorched her earth and abused her will.
    We surely deserve what she decides to deal.
    There is much we can learn from animals in the wild.
    Can they teach us to survive these apocalyptic trials.
    Her glorious wrath shall be on us all.
    Survival of the fittest, no one to hear us fall.

    broken pieces
    by iHEARTu

    This broken heart
    shattered on the ground
    bleeding like hell
    savior to be found
    and all those blood i've just waist
    revenge you'll have to face

    you made me cry
    you made me bleed
    you've left me with nothing to succeed
    now i'm all alone
    talking on my own
    and screaming my lungs out to you

    days pass by
    i spoke to you
    and you didnt even reply
    i sit and cry
    and wonder why
    all you did is lie

    Missing the one beside me

    I'm missing the one beside me
    The one I love so much
    I feel we're sitting miles apart
    Even though our shoulders touch

    I shouldn't be so happy
    Why do I feel this good?
    We're sitting together as best friends do
    Though I would be more if I could

    Everything he ever does
    Every clever thing he says
    Every powerful moment between us
    Simply takes my breath away

    I cherish each memory we share
    And write it down in a book
    I can open it up whenever
    In the quiet, I'll take a good look

    All these good things cover the bad;
    Every moment I want to frown
    I miss him so much even though
    He's there beside me, sitting down

    I miss the way he would give a hug
    When I needed one so badly
    I miss the way he'd smile at me
    When my head hung down so sadly

    I miss the way he made me feel
    When he was telling a story
    I miss the way he gave me life
    And let me take the glory

    I miss the way he'd whisper to me
    Tell me secrets no one knew
    I miss the way he'd laugh as I fell
    But he would help me back up too

    Now I'm missing the one beside me
    The one I really do care
    I feel we're as close as friends can be
    Yet he doesn't even know I'm there

    ---
    well, i did get a few votes on this one, i just wish there could have been more feedback to it....so i hope this is ok!

    My fairy with no wings
    by ∫Bëløveđ∫

    She has her wings
    But they were torn by a butterfly
    The whispers of the things
    She hopes doesn't fly

    She is going to die soon
    Because a cat scratched her skin
    She cannot hear
    And is bleeding from within

    Now she is on the floor
    Her body spilling from decay
    She faints once more
    She shall die today

    She was sculpted by creation
    But god does not want things like her around
    He loves them though
    And knows where they are bound

    I say goodbye to my fairy
    As she takes her last breath
    Dying in my hand
    The day of her death....

    Things I Miss
    by Cindy

    Things I Miss

    I miss the sunlight in the morning,

    the dew drops on the lawn.

    The birds singing their songs,

    in the early morning dawn.

    I miss seeing the leafs,

    blowing in the wind.

    The sound of the water,

    gurgling in the brook.

    I really miss the way,

    that everything looks.

    For you can only see so much,

    looking out the window.

    The sounds floating in,

    through a screen.

    You don't see all the flowers,

    that are blooming in the spring.

    Or the farmer in his garden,

    with plow in tow.

    The corn in July,

    all growing in a row.

    The sounds of children laughing,

    as they play in their pools.

    Or their joyous screams,

    as they get out of school.

    I miss the smell of Autum,

    the coolness in the air.

    The way the fall wind blows,

    through my hair.

    The crackling of the leafs,

    when they crunch under my feet.

    I miss taking the kids door to door,

    to say Trick or Treat.

    I miss feeling the snowflakes,

    falling on my face.

    The sound of the crackling bonfire,

    as the skaters lace their skates.

    I miss the beauty of the sun.

    rising on the snow.

    Going outside feeling the,

    cold north wind blow.

    Watching the sun,

    setting in the west.

    All the beautiful colors,

    I like the red the best.

    I miss looking,

    into the nighttime sky.

    Watching the twinkling stars,

    up so very high.

    But most of all I miss you dear,

    I have since you died.

    I know we'll be together again,

    That thought keeps me alive.

    The Game Of Love Pt.1, Pt.2, & Pt.3

    *~* Pt.1

    I chocked on the words
    As they rolled off my tongue
    I held back tears
    As my thoughts came undone

    How could this happened
    I didn't know why
    How could you leave me
    As I site here and cry

    After all we've been through
    Sometimes thick, sometimes thin
    I feel as if I'm playing the wrong game
    And now I have no chance to win

    We had made so many plans
    And spent so many nights on the phone
    But now my pages are empty
    And I just feel so alone

    No more memories of us
    When we were together
    I kept all of the stuff
    Like your necklace and sweater

    I want you to stop and think
    Is this what you truly want
    Because "no" is the answer for me
    But your ghosts are the one's that'll haunt

    But I guess all I can do now
    I smile as I think of you
    And wish you the best of luck
    And hope in your heart it's true

    *~* Pt. 2

    As the tears stream down my face
    And stain my pillow and cheeks
    I'm fighting off this indecision
    And trying not to be so meek

    I try and push memories away
    But they're floating around my head
    Every time we laughed and kissed
    And every thing you had said

    I hoped this would never happen
    But I guess I put in too much trust
    I come up with the short end of the stick
    My bridge is falling because of the rust

    Just because I say things
    That doesn't mean I don't care
    I just wish I wasn't just a friend now
    But if you need me, I'll always be there

    Know that I still care about you
    That feeling will never go away
    I just can't believe my heart still flips
    At every little thing you say

    It was so wonderful to hear you voice
    Half of me felt at home
    But the other half sat wondering
    How could you make me so alone

    I guess I just gave too much
    And didn't get much back in return
    But that's what most givers get
    The wind up getting burned

    I know that you already know
    That you broke my heart
    But I wouldn't mind one more chance
    For a brand new, fresh start

    *~* Pt.3

    Maybe now it was somehow worth it
    Know that I will never regret it
    All the times spent and memories made
    Trust me, I won't forget it

    Times have changed
    And I guess people do to
    Maybe I've changed
    But that reason is you

    After thinking about it
    Everything that happened is right
    There are reasons behind things
    It's destiny and I can't fight

    Maybe now I'll find someone
    Someone who will treat me right
    Who will be better for me
    Open my eyes in darkness; my light

    I know you can be kind
    But you're also a big flirt
    And that's something I won't deal with
    I don't feel like getting hurt

    Maybe one day you'll see
    That you're the on who's missing out
    By then, it might be too late
    And my love for you is fizzing out

    So goodbye, forever
    Maybe we can just be friends
    But look back now and then
    And remember, you wanted it to end

    ♥ Ciao

    You said you love me
    and i believed
    i'm full of blessings
    from what i've received

    the next day comes
    i walked along
    on the Grey pathway
    that leads to your home

    i stop and stare
    below the sun's glare
    and found you
    with another girl

    you gave a sudden kiss
    on her tender lips
    and hold on to her so tightly

    tears starts to fill my eyes
    oh god im full of lies

    Title: Lonely tears
    By: Sharona

    As I lay here in my bed,
    I wonder what I have done in my life,
    As I think about it
    I realize I have done nothing
    I have given so much love to people
    And what did I get in return,
    Pain, sadness and loneliness.
    I try to stop my tears from falling
    But the sadness is too strong
    As I see my tears falling to the ground,
    I know that no-one will care,
    Nor will they see my tears
    They will only walk over them,
    Like people have done all my life.
    What happened to this once happy person?
    I feel so lifeless.
    Thing’s that once made me happy,
    Now only be tears and sadness.
    Where is my life going right now?
    I think that in my heart and soul,
    I know it’s coming to an end.
    Will anyone remember me?
    No-one will know that I am gone,
    Because no-body ever cared.
    I came into this world a lost soul,
    And I shall leave this world a lost soul....

    Fed up

    I work my hands to the bone
    digging myself an early grave
    for what just for the thought
    that I've helped someone.
    For I know most of the time
    I won't be appreciated at all.
    So I must find my own payment
    Take my moment to shine,
    rise above, be on top
    in the spot light.

    Can't Forget My Love

    Silly me for thinking I was ever over you.
    Couldn't break this feeling fighting its way through.
    Foolish heart for believing this love would never last
    The music was too slow, for my feet were moving fast.
    Stupid girl for feeling what we had would soon fade
    Didn't then, hasn't yet, and never will go away.
    Mindless woman for deciding it was time to give up.
    Leaving feelings for you, that was just enough.
    Just enough to push me back into reality
    Realizing I never gave up on the thought of you and me
    Never gave up on a future that has yet to be lived
    Couldn't leave behind a chance I'm willing to give
    Didn't throw away what my heart says to keep
    Can't forget you ever while awake or asleep
    Won't abandon the hope still held out for us two
    That's why I can't forget the love I have for you.

    (means a lot to me. I felt it was one of my better where you could really feel the emotion so I was surprised it didn't get more feedback.)

    AUTUMN'S ONE WINGED ANGEL

    Buried by tears that have fallen from heaven's eyes
    She still searches earth looking for dead butterflies
    To revive their burnt wings and disguise their mortality..
    Wilted leaves and falling drops are autumn's cruelty...

    One winged angel slowly embraces wretched lovers
    That used to be the forever love's sculptors...
    Her presence eases their never ending pain
    As they walk barefooted in an absolute rain...

    Devils hide behind the clouds trying to conquer heaven
    But this maudlin angel hunts them away with her celestial dragon
    Perfect pair for mortals that have forgotten their dreams...
    Lost among frozen ration and middle-night screams...

    Undefeated autumn reigns over this unbeaten nature
    That even now comprehends world's harmony breaker
    Formed by teardrops,sorrow and blank loneliness
    That hide even behind the one winged angel's kindliness...

    Their Story.
    by Condescending;Heart.

    Her heart beats faster,
    Realizing what she's done,
    What she defended so hard,
    He finally had won.

    Waking Up Ashamed,
    Knowing that she'd lost,
    He had beat her for the second time,
    With her dignity at cost.

    Knowing he wouldn't even speak to her,
    They next day he walked by,
    He would just turn away,
    And Wouldn't Reply.

    Her heart had broken,
    As she pretended she didn't care,
    Realizing it was just a game to him,
    One more life affair.

    A kiss on the cheek,
    Some shots and a flat,
    Got her telling secrets,
    And where he wanted her at.

    Years of temptation,
    From the boy of her dreams,
    Knowing she wasn't good enough for him,
    And all that he seems.

    Her Guard finally slipped,
    And he got the best of her,
    Not able to remember anything,
    The night left as a blur,

    Now he's faded from her mind,
    But their secret she'll always keep,
    He told her that he loved her,
    As They Slowly Fell Asleep.

    ~Fascination~
    By Melissa

    I'm enthralled by those certain girls
    who sport red lipstick
    and wear chihuahuas as an accessory

    You know the the kind,
    they own stiff bouffants
    and slip on leopard print platforms,
    so their stubbiness appears five inches taller

    I half expect that one day,
    they'll say hi to me
    and like a small minded dog
    I'll gallop to their side
    with my tail wagging, tongue drooling self
    ready and willing to please

    They'll pat my ignorant head
    and at once,
    my tiny lips will smile candy apple red,
    my toes will become hip to the scene,
    and I'll sit coolly at the local pub
    smoking Virginia Slims,
    while chatting about dirty dishes
    and boys who think their men

    Then maybe, just maybe
    some stupid girl
    will be fascinated by me

    POEM TITLE: THIS GHOST TOWN
    POEM:

    I'm so unable to make it
    i need your voice tonight
    instead i hear the dial tone
    and you are not in sight

    i'm trying to survive but i'm going down
    i'm the only occupant of this ghost town
    i'm oh, so lonely, the city around
    but no one comes to this ghost town

    i once dreamed that you had come here
    but you were a dream, TV in a tear
    the crystal blue shines like a window
    you left me here before i could ever know

    all alone here
    i'm on my own
    i won't survive
    the way not shown

    i see your footsteps in the mud
    but they're washed away by the rain
    i try to imitate your footsteps in the ground
    but it just isn't the same

    i'm crying and yelling for you out loud
    but no one hears me in this ghost town
    the slick black car takes you away
    maybe you weren't here anyway...

    A Demon's Halo

    Innocent until proven guilty,
    yet the judgment will never cease,
    unspoken words of hate and spite,
    and a demon on the streets.

    Watched through every window,
    a marked man in the crowd,
    hateful stares and harmful whispers,
    loom like an overhead cloud.

    Black listed by society,
    before any judgment has passed,
    condemned to walk in solitude,
    in the footsteps of those outcast.

    Forgotten are the strengths,
    the fond memories of what used to be,
    all that's left are these accusations,
    bringing waves of pain and misery.

    Blinded by the fangs,
    a halo goes unseen,
    another angel falls between the cracks,
    in society's attempt to gleam.

    Cupid's timing was off
    By:Amanda Faye K

    As crazy as it seems
    I have seen this in my dreams
    It was a dream come true
    When you told me you liked me too
    All I want is to be with you
    But yet it is a nightmare
    I can't be with you today
    It hurts we can't be together
    Because I moved miles away

    It is nice to look back
    On the things we used to do
    It's funny how you're not here
    And I'm falling in love with you
    Stupid Cupid shot me with his dart
    I'm falling for you but we are apart
    I am truly happy but this tears my heart
    All at once I am happy but sad
    It's sad because I am missing you so bad

    I want to run into your arms
    And I don't want to let you go
    There is something in my heart
    That I want to show
    These words can't even describe my pain
    When I notice you're not here
    Nothing can describe my pain except for my tears
    I hate thinking it wasn't meant to be
    Because whatever the reason
    I just cannot see
