If you see Phelan

I'm writing this letter
To a dear friend
I'm afraid things won't get better
And that this may be the end

I might never
See him again
I know we said forever
And I'm sorry my friend

I wish I could see him
One last time
Before the day grows dim
And the stars refuse to shine

If you see Phelan
Please tell him I said goodbye
My heart is slowly failing
And I am soon going to die

Please let him know
That I still love him with all my heart
My feeling have done nothing but grow
Right from the start

I know this letter might not reach him
In time -
Before the day grows dim
And the stars refuse to shine

So I ask you for this favour
Of a dying girl
Please tell him there is no one braver
And that he still rocks my world

Are we allowed to do more than one?

Yes, you may do as many as you like. And more than one person may do the same title.

Can we do an old poem we wrote but revised?...I have on called..I woke up in a car!

Yes *♥Chelsey♥*, that is fine. I would prefer if it were entirely new, but submitting old revised poems won't hinder your chances of winning.

Me and the Moon, then please

Josie

Hurricane, please. :]

Hurricane.

Are you in love?
Yes I am..
Do you feel hate?
Yes I do..
I feel hate, I feel hate..
I feel it for you.

Do you feel pain?
Yes I do.
Are you insane?
Yes I am..
I'm insane, I'm insane
and you're to blame.

Pardon me,
just one more thing.
What is it that you
would want to change?
I'd change my love
ending in a violent hurricane..
That's what I would change,
That's what I would change.

Me and The Moon

Me and the MOON
We're really good friends
Every night we share stories
Of relationships coming to a bitter end

We share stories
Talking all night
Our tales filling the evening
Until the skies become light

Our conversations
Always filled with pain
Spoke of our past
And how,now, nothing remains

The moon's brightness
A smile painted by the sun
Hid the true emotions
Of what was going on

Knowing all too well
Our smiles are fake
Put there to hide
The pain we're forced to take

We share stories
Me and the moon
Such a pity
The sun will rise soon

Oh, oh, oh!! "He Paints Me Blue", please. x]]

I woke up in a car

My temples hurt so badly
I placed my hand over my head
I realize I'm in a car
Where was my home and bed?

A storm is raging on outside
Lightning flashes across the sky
A clap of thunder follows
I see a shadow moving around nearby

I could see trees out the window
I scooted up on the leather seat
This headache was killing me
I was overwhelmed by massive heat

Everything started to spin
When I saw a man beside the car
I could not supress my screams
As I looked at his massive, face-long scar

I locked both of the doors
But he took out the keys
I was stunned on what to do
So I pulled my chest to my knees

He tightly grabbed my arm
And dragged me out into the rain
I was scared out of my mind
But calm I tried to remain

I seen a shed in the distance
It was old and run down
His tight grip was so unbearable
Not one person was around

I couldn't give up this easily
Through this pain I had to fight
This man was not going to hurt me
I would not be his victim tonight

I kicked where my mom told me to
Where it terribly hurts a man
I started running through the branches
Putting together a plan

Maybe I could find a place to hide
And wait there till I was found
Suddenly I felt him grab my ankle
I fell helplessly to the muddy ground

Then he pulled out that knife
I seen it from the corner of my eye
Just when I thought he'd take my life
I heard a rumble from the sky

I shut my eyes to avoid the blood
But for some reason, opened them once more
I was back inside my car and looked out the window
To see that man outside my door

I knew the dream was now to become real
My future was to decrease or expand
It was flashing before my eyes
And in the killers hands

I'm sorry Rocky, I think you have the wrong board, bloody justice isn't one of the titles available.

Watch the Sky

With shards of stars broken in your eyes,
I hope you find it in you to look up;
Your wings are torn out, painted black,
But your eyes douse the flame burning in mine.
Your heart is cold and alone, frozen in ice,
No longer beating to this melody I sing;
My hands are shaking as I reach out to you,
Strewn along the horizon, a man so small.
Your chest rises and falls with every breath,
And breathing is all that you know now.
With the wind a light breeze on your beating temple,
Your spinning thoughts are slowing down, coming to a halt.
You open your bright blue eyes with arms open,
Waiting for someone to come and embrace you;
Whilst my spinning head is fading from rejection,
But yet there's a glimpse of hope left for you.
The thunder crashes to every beat of my broken heart,
That you hold in your hand, crystallizing in the sand.
And I scream in horror as I look down to you,
With tears in your eyes and words on your lips;
That's all you ever knew - those words of yours.
A sweet talker and a heartbreaker is what you are,
And baby, I must be a sucker for both;
So watch the sky and you might just see
Me in the glory of your morningstar.

[[Story would be about a girl that was in love with a guy who was in love with someone else and he never knew. She is looking "down" to him in the sense that she is now higher up in status than he is and she still has a little hope left in him to look to her in his morningstar and see she is meant for him, as the poem progresses he is slowly starting to see it for himself...very confusing, I know.]]

He Paints Me Blue
by SecludedSerendipity

Two years ago last Friday, he took to that artist's stage,
And announced that he was going to paint happiness.
He lifted up the paintbrush, and applied even strokes of orange and pink,
Which eventually finalised themselves into a picture of me.

"My girl, the most beautiful thing on this earth:
Happiness, in it's true definition making my life complete.
A smile does not linger far from her face,
Always, she makes me laugh, when my soul is hurting."

That explanation never left my mind.
How great it feels to be known as somebody's world;
Their constant reminder that life is a wonderful place.
Oh how I wish I could have erased this past year.

No longer am I happiness's true definition,
But that's what happens when Death rules your world,
And instead last Friday when he took to the artist's stage once more,
The orange and pink was gone, replaced with a cold blue.

"My beautiful girlfriend's happiness is lost.
Blue skies are all that fill her world now."
I sighed at his new explanation, staring at the painting closely,
And realised I was looking in the mirror.
