    Silently waiting, my dearly beloved friend.
    How long will you wait? You continue to ask..
    As long as it takes for the earth to end.
    That is way too long and quite a hard task!
    Can you sit that long, or will you pretend?
    Pretend to what? Must you continue to ask?
    Well, you took it upon yourself to wish your
    world won't end 'til you say, "hello loneliness."

    Lonely? Never!
    You'll see the day, my friend.
    A godmother in question, that's all you have.
    Soon she'll die, and you'll be alone.
    No, I shall never be alone!
    You will, you must admit it to yourself.
    No! That's impossible.
    It is not impossible, only scary.
    Just say it, my friend; you'll feel better.

    And, the last breath she breathed
    she happened to let out;
    " Hello loneliness, welcome to my life."

    A Ottava Rima is a poem written in 8-line octives. Each line is of a 10 or 11 syllable count in the following rhyme: abababcc
    [The first half of the poem is a Ottava Rima, second half isn't anything, just off the top of my head.]

    I edited my poem, I read it over the day after I wrote it, and it seemed unfinished. If that's a problem, just let me know. Eh..

    I Know Him By Heart
    By: Twisted Heart

    His every move, seen so clear
    Inside my mind he lives and breathes
    A simple touch upon my heart
    Fills my soul with ecstasy.

    His smile captures me in time
    Releasing for the world to see
    The thunder of his love relates
    Upon the brink of sanity.

    A touch inside my mind he makes
    Each thought, each memory
    A gesture to the heart that quakes
    Steals away my energy.

    His eyes have held me hostage
    For so long, yet cannot see
    That he now fills my every fate
    To wield in me such fantasy.

    But pain is all that's found these days
    Each night tears fall from saddened eyes
    A simple time, a soul betrayed
    Wrapped up in the touch of lies.

    Could love have dealt such bitter cold
    Shattered love in broken parts
    No kindness to a shaken soul
    Because... I know him by heart.

    SEX, LIES, AND BETRAYAL:

    A timid young girl
    Never spoke much
    So innocent she was
    But yearned for a touch

    He gave her the attention
    And flattered her so
    She was too naive
    Wanting to take it slow

    He promised her this
    But soon crossed the line
    He wanted one thing
    And wouldn't waste time

    She felt so dirty
    She knew she'd been used
    She was left so scared
    Punched, kicked, and abused

    Her innocence was stolen
    Her naivety scarred
    This cold memory
    Would never be far

    Yes this gross act
    left her so frail
    She'd always remember
    The sex, lies, and betrayal

    Hop you like it! :)

    I know him by heart
    by Nikki

    In the morning,
    when he wakes,
    he always takes me,
    to my special place,
    he has this way,
    to keep himself true,
    he tells me everything,
    and than says "love you",
    we are so in love,
    together we will stay,
    he makes me feel so special,
    and in every single way,
    there is nothing we do not know,
    about each other,
    if there is a problem,
    we will tell one another,
    the way he says he loves me,
    sounds so strong and pure,
    shows me that together,
    there is nothing we can not endure,
    we live every second of everyday,
    and share this life we have.
    i know him by heart-because he is my fiance

    A Sad Song Says So Much

    Moving soft and slow
    To a rhythm in my soul
    Same as the melody
    On an old radio

    It haunts my deepest thoughts
    Pervades into the mind
    Slipping through crevices
    Only pain could find

    Pulling at my heart's edge
    To unravel the tears
    That were holding on fine
    Until notes I could hear

    When the music plays
    My sanity's lost touch
    There's no words to speak,
    A sad song says so much.

    Driving down the black top; your eyes on the road,
    A sad song came on the radio; playing nice and slow,
    My fingers were entwined in yours; a smile on my face,
    Turning to say: "I love you" As my heart started to race.

    Smiling, you gripped the wheel tight and then you said:
    "Love you too," as your cheeks slowly turned red,
    And you sang along to the song as you looked to me,
    You shouted: "This is what our song can be!"

    And out on our spot; overlooking the sleepy town,
    You kissed me like you meant it; laying me down,
    My voice was shaking; fear was running in my eyes,
    My body quivered as you ran your hand up my thigh.

    We didn't notice the time on the clock; it was late -
    Around one AM; we had to be home at eight,
    You took me home and kissed me good night,
    And you sped away under the soft moonlight.

    An hour later; the door opened to two men in blue,
    With tears in their eyes, one said: "This is for you,"
    Taking the the box; they turned and walked away,
    Handing me your belongings from earlier that day.

    Later; they sat me down and said: "He took a curb too fast,
    Lost control of his car; when we found him, he was past."
    Pulling at my hair; tears streamed through my eyes,
    Yelling: "That didn't happen; it's all a bunch of lies!"

    But on top of the wooden casket is a picture of you,
    Flawless with your quirky smile and eyes of blue,
    As tears flow from my eyes; yearning for one last touch,
    But who ever knew that a sad song says so much.

    Hahaha, forgot you could only use "I" once, so I edited all of the lines that had it in them. That's why it doesn't make as much sense now, lol.

    Wanting is the hardest part plz

  • firexdancer

    Wanting is the hardest part

    it hurts to be alone,
    for some it hurts too much,
    yet punishment is needed,
    so you ache for his touch.

    the pain ready to consume you,
    crunching over with the screams,
    burning in the pit of your stomach,
    erasing what you used to be.

    you're running to the sink,
    trying to let it out,
    but the pain is never released,
    none of this you ever shout.

    it still hurts so badly,
    starting at the slightest thing,
    yet you continue on with your life,
    never let it sing.

    you know you have no right to pain,
    there's nothing that's gone wrong,
    you don't live in a starving country,
    trying to be strong.

    so why does it come to you?
    that question has no answer,
    maybe it's a sign you've done bad,
    that you are not sure.

    it starts scaring you at night,
    when you look up to the moon,
    longing for something to end,
    dying can never come too soon.

    yet you're scared to try yourself,
    and too weak to stand up again,
    because the last time you stood,
    they left you nothing but your pen.

    so you stare out to the distance,
    wishing on a star,
    and you realize it can never be,
    flying is too hard.

    because the longing is what destroys you,
    hold the fragments of your heart,
    it's wishing for what you don't have,
    wanting is the hardest part.

    To The Hudson Sea:

    To the Hudson sea, and back
    I went. Counting all the time
    Id spent, worried about
    Retirement

    Because, I know this time
    Was lent; because, I know here
    Comes the end. Prepare me for
    Retirement
