10 HOUR CONTEST!

Winners at the bottom

In A Field Of Black Winter Roses

An angel fell from heaven
with no place for her to go,
roaming the streets alone
nobody there she knows.

Sleeping behind a garbage can
praying to god for love,
never feeling it come
from the man who sits above.

In a field of black winter roses
her dreams seem to always be,
a shelter from the rain
and life's hateful miseries.

She has searched for someone
to wipe away all the tears,
someone who will fight
to keep away all her fears.

But no matter where she goes
or how hard she tries,
she just cant seem to
keep out all the lies.

So she sits and waits
for night to bring the sleep,
in a field of black winter roses
her dreams will always keep.

Nothing More Than...
You may be the one I loved
The one I'll forever miss.
But darling we both know,
Nothing will ever come of this.

Nothing more than tears and pain
Of which I've already done.
There's not even a battle here,
So nothing can be won.

Nothing more than broken hearts
Held on by fraying strings.
We're like a garden without seeds.
No fruitage will this bring.

Nothing more than tilled up ground
Left open and exposed.
It'd be like music in our heads,
Yet never written or composed.

Nothing more than a melody
Played only for the pleasure.
We're like two pirates searching,
For some nonexistent treasure.

Nothing more than hopes and dreams
Marked upon a paper
Like water in a boiling pot
It would all end up in vapor.

I can see how we would end
Only able to reminisce
Darling I know how it hurts
But nothing will ever come of this.

Irony of Fate

She slipped through the night,
A phantom of life,
Cloaked by the wind and the rain...
Stepped to the edge
Of a precarious ledge
To lament her loss and her pain.
In a grief choked voice,
She questioned the choice,
Her lover'd made nights ago...
To take his own life,
Thus ending his strife,
Leaving her lost and alone.
Yelling out "Why?!"
She knelt there to cry,
But lost in her grief and her woe...
She slipped instead
On the rain slicked ledge
And plunged to the rocks below.
The storm raged waves,
Laying their claim,
Carried her off to the sea...
And her pain ridden cry
Was lost in the night
Like a mist on a warm summer's breeze.
Yet sadly, it seems,
Her young lover's dreams,
Had ended in much the same way...
For in the late midnight hour
He'd knelt, picking a flower
And fell to the same twisted fate.

(this is over a year old... YEAH!)

The pain you gave me for over 3 years

by Nikki

I remember one night,
When I tried to run,
You caught up to me,
And said we had to be one,

You gave me a beating,
So hard you almost knocked me out,
I remember feeling you inside me,
I cannot remember what it was about,

There was no reason for what you did,
There was no reason for the pain,
You said if I didn't moan,
You would do it again,

I tried to moan,
But all I could do was cry,
You had tied me down,
I just wanted to die,

To know you were doing it,
To feel your touch,
I felt so disgusting,
And you were so rough,

I layed there tied down,
Through a full day of hell,
I could not move,
And you said if I tell,

Tell anyone where I went,
That I would die,
So to my friends and family,
I had to lie,

When you finally,
I remember the relief,
That you and I were one,
That was your belief,

I knew you would come back,
So many times for more,
Do you know how you made me feel,
I felt like a dirty fucking whore,

Twenty four hours,
Of nothing but your lust,
Telling anyone about it,
You I could never trust,

I knew you would kill me,
You had tried it once before,
But you stopped choking me and said,
That you might come back for more,

I hated you so much,
And still do to this day,
I hate you with a passion,
And in every single way.

They Died From You.

Vanishing particles uneasily found
have caused the cancer to surround.
A mind so deaf from earthly ways
has aged way past it's forgotten days.

A smile to complete. Complete what?
Two lungs that're failing. Going kaput.
Furious demons now leading the way,
there's nothing good left to do or say.

A million different reasons of which I hate
my grandma's destiny, my grandma's fate.
A ring on the phone sends me in shock.
Even if it's not her, my bones still lock.

Lost in this world uneasily found,
I've caused the fear to surround.
My mind so deaf from earthly ways,
has aged way past forgotten days.

I sit in a room that's filled with darkness
as the demons turn from dead to righteous.
They died from you, grandma.Your happy ways.
They lived from me in your dying days

Enter Child
by Twisted Heart

The mirror reflects the face of a child
Tears well in the eyes of the stranger that's seen
Inside the blue soul the thoughts rest awhile
To gather the dust from the life in between.

Black shutters dip down over the eyes
Splashing the tips of a cheek with the dew
That tends to the soul of the vacant dull light
As the strength of a memory is crushed from the view.

The torture of hurt wrapped up in a thought
Comes crashing upon the dark window's screen
No hope in the eyes of the child that was brought
No dreams formed to calm the pain that was seen.

Dim lights have but flickered upon the dead soul
Clueless inside of what had gone wrong
To leave such a thought of a hope that was stole
Taking away the laughter... the song.

Hands reach toward the mirror, touching the heart
Reflections of nights that were painted in gray
Tends to the dark soul that was pulled all apart
Collecting the pieces of the lost yesterdays.

From the eyes of the lost looking for faith
A belief to the soul that has withered and died
Into the dark dips the heart's fall from grace
As the pain tips the face of the child.

Can't Have A Rainbow

"The sky is falling!"
Cries the hand,
Catching all these tears,
"No one understands!"

Cracks form in pictures,
All in window panes,
Hearts, heads and souls,
Even when it rains,

Splitting in divisions,
The sky really falls,
Feels like bloody skin,
And an ache into crawls,

Thinking what is thought,
Missing what is missed,
Crying what is cried,
Kissing what is kissed,

Blades dangle from the sky,
Like icicles in a storm,
Untouchables crying prejudice,
As tears always form,

You cannot have a storm,
Without a little rain,
You cannot have a rainbow,
Without a little pain.

Closed i will judge this when i get home from work

Sorry missed the deadline

In A Field Of Black Winter Roses

I absolutely loved this poem. It was almost perfect I mean. Your rhyme scheme faltered in the third stanza. That is the only mistake I see here. It was put together well. And the words all fit together. It has been a while sense I was able to get threw an entire poem with out having to stop and read over a part that didn�t make sense. Good work there.

A Phone Call Away

Wow. This poem was amazing. I was almost through it all but then some words seemed a little off to me and I had to re-read it once or twice. But the message in this poem is enough to break ones heart. Anyone with a sister would feel the pain upon their chest as they read this.

Nothing More Than�

Oh dear. This is another good poem. I can see already I am going to have trouble marking this contest. Well the only reason why I read parts over was because they touched me as I read it. I needed to read it again. You are an excellent writer. If all your poems are like this I will surely have you on my favorites.

Irony Of Fate

Well umm� what can I say about this poem. IT SUCKED! Haha I�m just kidding. I feel like I can�t give out any criticism yet. *screams in horror* lmao. Well back to your poem. It was wonderfully written. I feel like I am repeating myself though. I loved how you put this poem together. Usually I don�t like when it is just one long line of poem. I like it broken up into stanzas. But you worked it so it worked out beautifully. Good work

Never Thought I Would Feel Like This

This was a good poem. I find that it repeated itself to much though, and the rhyme scheme was a little off to. I like it more when the ending words are different for the rhymes. �

The Pain You Gave Me For Over Three Years

Oh dear. This poem made me cry a bit. It was amazingly good. And extremely horrid to read. You touched all my buttons for poetry right here. Great work dear. Wow. Only two lines. I need more. Well umm� your rhyme scheme was good. It didn�t falter or anything.

They Died From You

This was such a sad poem. Yet I could relate to it in so many ways. I read all the way through with out stopping once :) good work there. I enjoyed reading this although it did make me sad. I am sure to read more of yours.

The Feel Of War

I liked reading this poem. It strikes a persons imagination and brings them to where you are. Good work in that aspect. But while I was reading it I felt like there was some words that shouldn�t be there. or some missing words. Or mixed up words. I couldn�t put my finger on them but I am sure if you read over it you will find what there could be to fix. And the ending. It just sort of... ended� I felt like it wasn�t done yet. If you change your last line up a bit I think it will flow better into the ending.

Enter Child

Umm� what to say� what to say. I am amazed at how well together this poem is. It flowed so beautifully. Way to go. It was amazing. I could see your poem unfold in front of me as if I was watching it happen not reading it. now that�s amazing work right there I tell you.

Can�t Have A Rainbow

Well the. Umm� I guess I have a huge rainbow after reading that one! Joke joke. I liked reading it. I put a nice little beat to it in my head as I read on. Great work there. mmm� what else to say. I am sorta speechless with you. Haha

My Final Attempt of Suicide

Well.. this defiantly was a long poem now. I find poems to be better if they tell a part of the story. You could have written 3 or 4 poems in that one. But it was still a good poem. Good work.

Now. I can’t seem to find a first second and third place winner. But I can put everyone into place one and two. So that’s what I am going to do.

Also I am going to change around how I am judging you guys.

First Place: I will get as many comments as I can on you all. That won’t be many for the fist few days but you will also be put into my favorites in which I will go back when I have time and add more comments.

Second Place: I will give you all 5 comments of my poem choosing. (either latest poems or poems from your featured list.
