*This Love

I live for this love
To feel your arms around me
To know you'll always care

I live for this love
To know I'll never get angry
To feel your presence, forever there

I live for this love
To feel all these emotions
To know you won't break my heart

I live for this love
To know your true intentions
To feel you here, even when we're apart

I live for this love
To feel,
To know,
It's everlasting

*hope you like it!

Valentinite
by Faceless Mirror

I'm colorless to white.

Walking down the avenue in the crisp cold and
the freezing weather tunes me in.

I'm moving in mono.

I play chess against myself and
my senses are all-inclusive.

I'm colorless to white.

The cold starts to bite; numbing my flavor
and the freezing weather tunes me in.

I'm moving in mono.

I play chess against myself and
my senses are all-inclusive.

I'm colorless to white
and I'm moving in mono.

~Efflorescence~
by Melissa

Momma says I've got a poet's heartache
that I dally
among the gardens of malady
where briery thorns
nip at their own flimsy petals
and all the virile plants want to heal me,
but I'm saving myself
for some wild haired rose
who's only going to tear
my flowering heart........................apart

Daddy says I'm a rare bloom
with tender palms
and a golden stem,
in poetry I search for words
to bury my core within,
a tough little root
who beholds a mystical pen
that drips love for a man
she believes exists
somewhere between the lines
of her own making

But my loves,
I'm just a lonely pot
trying to fill blank space
with a poetic soil
so these veins will grow
into a substantial blossom
worth savoring
by thou gardeners
who give sun to thy soul
and a pause in time
worth reflecting
off the ground
of God's jaw dropping scenery

Shattered Hope

Spoke With Myself Yesterday
Wondering, did I go mad?
I didn't feel so very insane
If I'm honest, I was sad
I felt like a huge mistake
A disappointment to this world
My emptiness stretched out like a lake
And then a little tear curled

That didn't make it any better
Because what can crying do?
My own hope I shatter
By crying and singing a little bit too
I didn't tell anyone
How insane I felt
Except for myself no one
Knew the feelings I held

The tear was my witness
But I let it die
Broken upon the ground
After a few seconds fly
I didn't show my face
To the world yesterday
I needed a hug
More than I could say

As I was talking with me
I discovered my problem, the cause
It was that I was missing you
I realised how alone without you I was
I still am today, but today I'm better
Not good at all, but I can smile again
No more hope I will shatter
'cause I'll be with you again

hope u like it.. ;)

Deep I Fall

By: David Marshall

I'm hazed and falling in the oceans abyss.
I'm drowning with sorrow and floating in despair.
The bubbles surround me; I'm confused about this.
The waves push me down; I'm gasping for air.

The rain distorts the light shimmered surface.
The sea creatures squirm swiftly in fear.
My body falls deeper almost consumed.
I'm not sure if the bottom is anywhere near.

The currents gently move me around.
I float delicately without any motion.
My eyes shut, and my ears flood deluding the sound.
I fall deeper into this ocean.

The surface light dims with blue turning black.
My careless mind drifts with my soul.
I won't live; no I won't survive this fact.
The fact that I never had control.

I relax as the bubbles immediately stop.
My thoughts wonder into eternal regret.
My lungs are filled with water, but my heart remains empty.
Images of you spring through my head.

I finally touch the bottom in the end.
My lifeless body rests without motion.
There's no way I could fall any deeper.
My body, my soul, my heart dead in this ocean.

So Far Away.
by TheWorldFell&UWerentThere

-Deicated To Ryan.

Wanted to write something Mysterious so I wrote a poem and I think I did pretty good.

Hidden Place,
Untold Truth,
Dark Secrets,
Unspoken Voice.

Blackened midnight,
No stars in the darkened world,
No moon to guide me,
All alone in the deep black night.

Waiting paths,
To turn it all for the worse,
Nightmare,
Just around that bend.

Split Image,
Inside, Out
Hurt, Scared,
Heartbroken, Torn.

Seconds pass slowly,
Like my heartbeat trying to go on,
Hours seem so far away, a universe between us,
I don't think I can go on for that long.

Bloody eyes,
Crying bloody tears,
Unhealed scars,
Scream to be healed.

Hollow eyes,
Nothing there,
Trying to find a scrape of emotion,
Nothing there.

Behind 20 metal bars,
Windowpane being my escape,
The only thing between,
The world and me.

I'm just so far away.

A friend like mine.

Have you ever had a friend, whom you could never live without.
someone who'd always be there carried not a single doubt,
About your actions or intentions, the way you do your hair.
someone you knew no matter what, would always be right there.

Have you ever had a friend, who'd whipe away your tears,
someone if they could help at all, would fight away your fears.
Have you ever had a friend, whom you would never leave alone,
someone who has your entire heart, someone who is your home.

Have you ever had a friend, who you could call no matter what,
someone who will look after you, heal your every cut.
Have you ever had a friend, for whom your soul could exist,
someone where you knew, if you were gone you would be missed.

I hope you get a friend, like the one I have today,
Then maybe you would understand, why I couldn't go away.
I hope you get a friend, like the one inside my heart.
Then you would understand, why we couldn't be apart.

these poems are very interesting and inspiring. Keep them coming!

*drowned in tears*

Thinking about what has happened to me,

what happened to the girl that i used to be.

the one who always believed in love,

and now doesnt even know the meaning of.

she thought he loved her and no one else,

now she's drowned in tears, something she's never felt.

the heartaches she's been given,

the lies she's been told.

insane she's been driven,

so lost and left out in the cold.

she's reached the one thing she's always feared,

drowning in a river of nothing but tears.

i hope you like this!!!

The Lies I Believed [Acrostic]
by BriBri .x. ♥

Tears cascading down rosy red cheeks
Hopeless are what my land of dreams have now become
Everything disintegrating before my eyes

Loving you has turned my soul to black ash
I was naïve, and gave you my heart
Ended with a cloud full of tears and lies
Sacrifices not of importance anymore

[I trusted you with everything I am]

Become confused, and numb; not able to feel
Every thing you said, I put my trust in
Love; I no longer understand what it is
I can’t even look at you; it makes me sick
Everyone was right, but at least I learned
Vanish; is all that I want to do
Ego of yourself is so unbearable; you think you’re perfect
Deranged, is what I’ll forever be; but don’t feel quilty

I hope you like this... This is one of my most favorites. Enjoy. =]

Capture

Decay swept across the lands, across the very burden of life,
Fire arose in the darkest of the nights, speaking of its strife.
Lies were kept and secrets found across this land,
Across many places, I looked down to see the world in my hands.
Such a delicate morsel to be forbidden I held,
Deep within as the storms of gods quietly quelled.
Facading, burning bridges all around my sight
Bleed for the thought of life and everyone's fight.
Held in my hands, sun shining brightly, a beauty to all,
These burning bridges stand, for they will not fall.

On the other side a precious bit of hope is lain
To taunt me of bitter lies and worthless hope that remain.
Burning so brightly, dangerously, in precious light of fire
Hope remains on life's side, I on death as my only desire.
Crawling to the fire, I lay by the remains of death,
As I take lay to my final, agonizing rest.
Yet, as I lift my head to a whistle in my mind,
The rain pours down on desolate bridges I do find;
The fire dies and hope prevails on the other side,
As burning bridges smolder, looking at me are hope and pride.
Smiling a catchy, friendly smile for the world to see,
These burning bridges died, yet they will not capture me.

The Answers We Search

Time is meaningless
For we can never write it all
In such distress
We've pushed ourselves to the wall

And in lies we find the truth
Of history retold
But we demand that there be proof
With words outlined in bold

We sway to the soon forgotten
Letting rest our future plan
Until the taste begins to rotten
And our legs no longer stand

Life passed in just a word
Melting on the floor
A chance to unearth the unheard
Upon an empty shore

But sand fills up our minds
Pouring from our lips
The desiccation makes us blind
Answers hidden in the eclipse

For to find the meaning of it all
Would be the greatest tragedy
To suddenly know how very small
And insignificant are we

A blade of grass in all of natural history
Standing proud and tall
Whilst the oak looks on from tree to tree
Knowing all that rises, must fall

A poem I wrote about life..suppose it would go under the society category. Hope you likie :)

Falling Star Quarterback
by Sociopathetic [Lauren]

It started with an injury from,
A tackle at a football game.
If only someone could have known
His life would soon be down the drain.

Rushed to the nearest hospital,
Doctor said he'd recover in due time
Just some broken bones, a busted knee.
A few months he should be fine.

Quarterback in a wheelchair,
Rolling through the busy halls.
Who would have known those painkillers,
Would lead to this star's downfall?

He began to become addicted
He needed his precious pills.
And so began his rollerroller coaster
Of twists and turns and spills.

He tricked his loving mother,
And lied to dear old Dad.
"I never took four pills this morning.
I swear, only two is what I had."

An error from the pharmacist they thought,
So although he was no longer in pain,
His prescription was renewed again,
And selling drugs became his game.

His teammates became the clients,
In his illegal, in-school trade,
And since his meds were very strong,
He became wealthy with what he made.

And with the money that he got,
from selling the meds to his friends,
He bought different, new and very powerful drugs.
You could tell tragedy would soon impend.

Soon enough his supply got scarce
His doctor would no longer prescribe,
So without the money he earned,
The money he owned he couldn't provide.

They wanted, needed the money he owed,
And no matter how hard the kid tried,
From these veteran dealers,
The Star Quarterback couldn't hide.

Now he's back in the hosptal,
This time he's the one to blame.
In the end he'll probably make it,
But he will never be the same.

Awesome! I love contests!!

Except The Ashes
by ~Princess Disaster [♥]

Tattered clothes, just a size too big or small
Families torn apart and into the pits, they fall
Concentration camps packed to the max
Paying with their lives is the tax

Large families reduced to just one
The mind going numb as thoughts come undone
Wondering and asking, “Why me?”
Begging…praying…“Let me be!”

Forced to work on jobs too hard
Living their lives in a cage that is barred
The frail bodies, always falling down
The SS constantly patrolling around

Wanting such a normal life, but it’s reduced to this
Desiring the family that they’re forced to miss
Desiring their life with many friends
Wishing that this horror would end

Struggling behind orders that should’ve never been spoken
The SS beating down on the lost and the broken
Wandering around aimlessly, no longer able to cry
Hoping and praying, and always asking “Why?”

Praying for the day when freedom would reign
A chance for a new life without the pain
Hoping for a day when they can finally cry
Wishing for a day when they can no longer ask why

Knowing somewhere, somehow, there’s a way
They still have a voice, even if they have nothing to say
Silenced by the terror of all that they have seen
Wishing that this living Hell was only just a dream

Walking there now, the silence, it screams
Hiding in the shadows are the things left unseen
Go into the museum and look past the glasses
Everything that remained, Except The Ashes

hope it's okay =]

♥Ciao

hey whats the prizes

The Rose

Roses are beautiful
They are sign of love
They bring smiles, not mine
My rose is different
It's beautiful, a sign of love
It doesn't make me smile
My rose stands for an old love
one that cut me like a thorn
from a rose, the pain was deep
Despite the pain I survived
I am here so is my rose
I'll carry it for life

closed for judging!

The Fight For Love

God sent something to take the world off it's feet..
something that will kill, and eat the meat..
right off the bone..
Killed them all, just to be alone

A fallen angel discovered..
no longer covered
with the gossamer of the heavens
burnt the flesh, stuck in a fiery hellhole..
left
but with the garments of mere human existence..
not left with much but a lonely distance..

Before this possession
began an infection
that took one man
a sharp sword in hand,
to the top of mount Olympus
to fight the gods.. with such auspice
of those who watched...
nothing now to stop the onslaught..

Now standing tall, one foul demon..
to rule them all to have what he wants..
his brain is shouting words of daunts
but his heart has more..

He must now prove to his Amor
that he can love....
in his hand: hers..
fits like a glove..

Hand in hand..
heart in heart..
A love Sent From The Gods.

^ It was CLOSED already.

It may be till Monday before I can judge. I am SOOO busy, so please be patient! Thanks!
