    ~Things Left Unsaid~

    Nostrils tingle, beginning to breathe.
    Air is expelled, aiming to deceive.
    Externally stable, as he inherently seethes.
    Emotions tabled, he receives no reprieve.

    Loquacious lips, tongue tied in a knot,
    overbearing, yet inside overwrought,
    a feeble facade, that could go for not,
    for the truth could be found, if it were sought.

    Words enkindle, his throat is inflamed;
    an empty frame, with the interior maimed.
    Demeaning disclosures, feeling defamed,
    yet with one honest mutter, he is acclaimed.

    Abounding lungs, an inflated chest,
    inordinately full of emotions suppressed.
    With an innate ability to cope with unrest,
    he awaits his implosion, forever depressed.

    ~Will Hunting~

    My Nightmare
    Brittney Schmelter

    Bone-jarring shrieks stagger the night.
    Bloody hands and rusted knives.
    Scarred soul with hate in-threaded,
    Through the night he's stealing lives.

    Death-filled whispers of insanity,
    In the ears of innocent children.
    Chuckles escaping a dry mouth,
    The calling of those who cannot win.

    Scraping across the eerie floor.
    Wide-eyed terror; hands uplifted.
    Sense gracefully leaves the room.
    Blank eyes - cold hands - body rigid.

    Ascending out of lifeless room,
    Gasping at life, corpse is shaking.
    Dropping the knife; sight unsteady,
    Our corrupt master is now awaking.

    Body invaded with foreign sense,
    Drowning in the waves of ecstasy.
    Giggling silently he tiptoes on.
    Not a single thought of mercy.

    Dancing with his chaotic fantasies,
    He marches on through his parade.
    He only stops at a quiet house.
    The party goes on as rain cascades.

    The saddest thing of this story is...
    I can only call it: A dream that's there.
    Reality and Fantasy are now one.
    Though I wish it was just My Nightmare.

    Always Have & Always Will

    Late April day,
    when my eyes first saw you.
    From that moment on I was yours.

    Traveling through the years,
    pursuing you with hope,
    but continually met with disappointment.

    Never give up was my attitude,
    you were one worth my time,
    I wasn't going to lose you after so long.

    Love wasn't quite it.
    Call it deep rooted admiration,
    until that night...

    Star filled sky lit your eyes,
    while your hand found mine,
    for the very first time.

    A whisper filled the air.
    Love sprung up without asking,
    "Will you be mine" with always be remembered.

    I have always looked up to you.
    You now my heart, and I have yours.
    And I will always love you with all I've got

    Xx Things Left Unsaid xX

    I've got so many unsaid things
    You really need to know
    I have to try and tell you
    Before you tell me to go

    The truth is that I love you
    I never meant to make you cry
    I never meant to push you
    Towards saying goodbye

    It is true, I treated 'us'
    With not a lot of care
    But I never saw the day
    That you wouldn't be there

    I really need to tell you this
    Before I lose my nerve
    I'm sorry I never gave you
    The love that you deserve

    But I want to set things right
    And show you we're meant to be
    If you'll just give me a chance
    And say you still love me...

    Baby, don't make me cry.

    Precise commendations break apart our lives,
    and involuntary illnesses scream unbearably loud,
    as uncovered statistics rise and fall so rapidly,
    freeing oneself from terrifying take backs,
    and " I love you," turns into an unknown fact,
    learning the consequences of your own actions,
    is handicapped for nightmares drifting above,
    and our love is not but a release from brittle fears,
    so, baby, don't make me cry- - I beg of you not to.

    Ventriloquist(sp)

    You control me
    this cant be

    i wanna be real
    i wanna feel

    Never again do i want to do what you say
    Never again not tomorrow not today

    I don't wanna be ruled by you
    but what else can i do

    I will break free
    I will make you see

    I am real,not just a doll
    You, and your reign will fall

    I will bring you down
    No longer on my face will i wear a frown

    It will be a big wide smile
    while all the while

    I will rule you
    now, what can you do

    Emerald Eyes
    By: Twisted Heart

    On dusty shelf in darkness rests
    Porcelain skin and satin dress
    Gold spun curls, fancy ties
    Two bright gems, her emerald eyes.

    Once loved by all now she's alone
    Inside this house once called a home
    But tragedy came late that night
    She witnessed all through emerald eyes.

    Little girl in fluffy flannel gown
    Nestled close in sheets and pillow down
    Awoke so startled with periled cries
    Shattered innocence saw by emerald eyes.

    Dark shadows fell upon tainted bed
    As little girl gasped for her final breaths
    No movement at all, not even a sigh
    Tormented death saw through emerald eyes.

    All went silent and still in air of gloom
    A single shot heard down the hall in his room
    Now quiet comes painful upon this sad night
    As tears crack the face that holds emerald eyes.

  • Hey Brittknee

    I'll take Break the Skin.

  • Serina the Squid
    17 years ago

    Break the Skin

    Pushed down, shoved aside
    Gasping, bubbling
    Dead inside
    Move, breathe, talk, live
    Don't falter, never give

    Bad, good, sit, stay
    If I'm your dog,
    keep hands away
    Teeth sharp, eyes bold
    Tempt me, tease me, die cold

    Beat me, break me
    take me, tame me
    You always look and never see
    So do come closer, foolish kin
    A single gnash will break the skin

    My nightmare.

    Everything is dark,
    All you here is a bark.
    It is a nightmare.

    Then something hits you,
    It was something huge.
    It is a nightmare.

    You feel a knife,
    Knowing it may take your life.
    It is a nightmare.

    You feel it stabbing your flesh.
    And feel your blood, its fresh.
    It is a nightmare.

    You here its bloody voice,
    You cannot rejoice.
    It is a nightmare.

    You see its face,
    Then you are in a chase.
    It is a nightmare.

    But all I can think of,
    Is the person face!
    It is a nightmare.

    The eyes that kill,
    It gives me a chill.
    It is a nightmare.

    The lips that pierce your skin,
    I know he will win.
    It is a nightmare.

    I feel his cold hands,
    There like wristbands.
    It is a nightmare.

    They rap around my neck,
    And I turn into a reck.
    It is a nightmare
    I gasp for air,
    I send up a prayer,
    It is a nightmare.

    I know this is the final moments of my life,
    As I feel that knife.
    It is a nightmare.

    I cannot speak,
    I feel so weak.
    It is a nightmare.

    Then I am in my bed,
    I am not dead.
    It was a nightmare

    (thats oen of mine ill pm it 2 u also)

  • Bryan

    Im so so sorry bout this, forgot all bout it

    Ventriloquist (Acrostic/Rondel Hybrid)
    Bryan

    Violins play in the background sweet melodies
    Everyone dances, not a sad soul in sight
    No sorrow lingers, happiness fills the night
    Times stands still, everyone is in tranquility
    Reminiscing on these enchanting memories
    In-secluded love fills the room tonight
    Laughing and talking, so easy to see
    Over the disguise for-shown in the light
    Questions still linger, no guarantees
    Unanswered heartaches giving a fight
    Instantly the clouds begin to recite
    Showing the magic under the mist
    This is the sorrowed life of a ventriloquist

    a style that i thought would be cool, it uses the rondel rhyme scheme ABBAABABABBAA, and spells out a word or sentence like the acrostic style, hope yall like it!!!
