    All i have to do is dream

    by Nikki

    When I want to see you
    I know all I have to do
    Is lay there and close my eyes
    I know you will be there with no disguise

    I cannot find you when I am awake
    You were taken and I now have heart ache
    Death stole you far too soon
    But my love for you still shines as bright as the moon

    I see you gorgeous smile
    I get to hold you, if only for a while
    I remember what it is like being in your arms
    And I remember your tender loving charms

    You still look perfect to me
    As gorgeous as can be
    I whisper in your ear I love you
    And you whisper I love you to

    My dreams are my heaven
    To keep you with me, I am beggin
    I hear a funny noise while I lay in your arms
    I open my eyes to find, it is just my alarm

    Until tonight my darling, same time same place
    You are the my only one I could never erase
    I shall see you tonight until than my heart shall scream
    But I know to see you, all I have to do is dream

    i wrote this about losing my partner, it means a lot to me

    Broken Fairytale
    by Memories of Kana and Hatori

    A tear fell down my cold, red cheek,
    Laying in the snow, so weak,
    I felt alone, stranded, only me,
    No longer did I want to seek,
    For someone to cure my heart, so meek.

    When I finally looked up to see,
    If someone cared to hold the key,
    To open my eyes and save,
    What is left of my fairytale that once was free.
    There you were, with eyes like the sea.

    Like a needle and thread so brave,
    You stitched up my broken soul and gave,
    A shimmer of hope and so much more,
    To me, the one who had been merely a slave,
    To the witchery and darkness that fills every cave.

    As you mended the scars that I cannot ignore,
    The sky grew bright as never before,
    For the first time in 7 long years, a smile finally grew.
    My wings that were damaged, learned to soar,
    Soar once more, forever to explore.

    7 years in the past, any dream I had, I would pursue,
    But then the accident came devastatingly true,
    And I lost my arm, half my sight and became full of fright.
    When people saw me, they laughed and threw,
    Crude remarks, harsh words, and pain that never withdrew.

    Now you know what happened to my fairytale that night,
    When it was shattered, rejected, no longer a light.
    When you finished mending my soul, after those years,
    A part of me remained scarred, no longer right,
    I wanted to give up, the long, hard fight.

    The final thing I ask, is to leave the pieces and tears,
    Of my shattered soul, for when you leaves, my pain reappears.
    You saw another, who needed your help,
    She was my sister, who had a thousand fears.
    Even when it's a matter of life and death, she interferes.

    A tear fell down my cold, red cheek,
    Laying in the snow, so weak,
    I felt alone, stranded, only me,
    No longer did I want to seek,
    For someone to cure my heart, so meek.

    ______________________________________
    The rhyming pattern is: aabaa, bbcbb, ccdcc, and so on for seven stanza's. The last stanza is a repeat of the beginning stanza.

    Good Luck everyone!

    By laura

    Miss You

    Voices whisper
    Deep in my ears
    Sadness settles
    As day disappears

    In my room
    Laying on my bed
    Anything to relax
    To rest my spinning head

    Thoughts race through
    My poor exhausted mind
    Dreams fall over
    My body is left behind

    I dislike my dreams
    As they despise me
    All I can do
    Is wish to be free

    Trapped in the gap
    Of my world so scary
    I am alone and dead
    Cold and weary

    The smell of blood
    The taste of deceit
    A cold body
    Burning bruised feet

    Terror fills,
    The empty heart
    Being drowned in tears
    Being torn apart

    By the time morning arrives
    It seems like years
    No rest for me
    As I awake with fresh tears

    Confessions Of A Female Serial Killer.

    Perhaps this heart of mine has ached too potently long,
    reasoning with the only options that are heard,
    leaving the others deep within this soul of mine.
    Oh, oh.. I know this choice, I know this choice is wrong.
    It's lingering so quietly in the back of my mind,
    as a beater from hell has been awfully unkind.
    Reasoning from options he withholds from earth,
    and taking my body, soul, and heart for less than it's worth.

    As change rolls off the table - - what he calls my tip,
    tears roll down my face, caressing my upper lip.
    Stunning beauty has fallen to the floor; leaving me behind.
    As the option still lingers in the back of my mind.
    And, I find it hard to believe this is answer is wrong,
    searching for the right to make my dreams yield,
    standing solid by my fantasies - - which have left my empty soul.
    And, as I said before - - perhaps this heart of mine has ached to potently long.

    My confessions no longer matter, but they're all I have left.
    For, I've taken the life of the rapist in mind - - oh, oh, his stupidity.
    He left behind his little finger prints, and the police said they'd find him.
    But, you see I've stolen the life of my virginity's theft.
    I've broken his trend, and broken his ways - - Stole his life,
    just as he stole mine without a single gun nor a single knife.
    He stole my pride, patience and morals and left me without a thing..
    And, I've realized in this life I've lived that I have to deal with change.

    For, it's not the heart of the broken that's running the wrong way,
    but it's the soul of the evil that's trotting behind me , darkening the day.

    My Immortal (Terzanelle)
    by Bryan

    This is a terzanelle to my immortal heart,
    Tired of going through the same old pain,
    May it end, may my soul finally depart.

    So hard to deal, its just so hard to explain,
    About what I go through, what it does to me,
    Tired of going through the same old pain.

    One day she will know, one day she will see,
    How she hurt me, maybe she will now care,
    About what I go through, what it does to me.

    This just isn't right, this just isn't fair,
    Hope she enjoyed it, I hope she knows,
    How she hurt me, maybe she will now care.

    I've given up, I know it will never go,
    This pain is like a sweet sad melody,
    Hope she enjoyed it, I hope she knows.

    I sit here writing for everyone to see,
    This is a terzanelle to my immortal heart,
    This pain is like a sweet sad melody,
    May it end, may my soul finally depart.

    The Terzanelle is a poetry type which is a combination of the villanelle and the terza rima forms. It is a 19-line poem consisting of five interlocking triplets/tercets plus a concluding quatrain in which the first and third lines of the first triplet appear as refrains. The middle line of each triplet is repeated, reappearing as the last line of the succeeding triplet with the exception of the center line of the next-to-the-last stanza which appears in the quatrain.

    First Terzanelle
    actually this was easier than i thought, id appreciate any critique on helping it

    Your breath stops,
    There are no cops.
    You want to scream,
    You wish it were all a dream!

    He has that evil grin,
    He is going to win!
    He holds that gun,
    I want to run.

    He says a few words,
    I here a few birds.
    No people, except us,
    Itâ??s not a plus!

    I am afraid,
    I prayed!
    Any second now,
    He would pull that trigger.

    I will be dead,
    And nothing would be said!
    I would just bleed,
    And he would just leave.
