    Runaway

    This demon has taken you,
    Taken you from me,
    The sweet taste of liquid death,
    Drenching your lips,
    Consuming your palate.

    It has become your love,
    No remorse for what you have left behind,
    Your reality knows no shame.

    This craving and want,
    You try to disguise as a need,
    Guided by the devils hands,
    You walk into darkness,
    As though it were always your home,
    But I saw your light.

    Eyes that shone like destiny,
    Beckoning me to drown in their waters,
    Love once lived there.

    Now you drag it into this hell,
    A hell which is keeping you content,
    Happiness from emptiness,
    I could never know such a thing.

    To embrace nothing,
    To care for nothing,
    To walk away from everything,
    For nothing.

    What you run from will be there,
    No matter what you drown your soul in,
    Even in your moment of death,
    You will think of all you held,
    All you left.

    Will you waste it all?
    All that was,
    All that is,
    All that could be,
    Because you can not face your own fears.

    For fear of all things,
    Nothing but a shiver in your soul,
    A moment of "what if?"

    Because you can not have you,
    No one will have you,
    You will run from love,
    Though it is what you want,
    And drown yourself in this paradise of poison,
    I mourn for such thoughts.

    Contagious

    You dared to be the hero
    You swore you'd be courageous
    I suppose it doesn't work that way:
    Bravery is contagious

    You said you'd never be a fool
    Afraid to be too outrageous
    But we both knew it was different:
    Charisma is contagious

    All the times you said to me,
    "You know, they'd never make us"
    We wanted to be with the crowd:
    Conformity is contagious

    Tears were wiped away
    And pain had never phased us
    But something here was terribly wrong:
    Sadness is contagious

    Take Me Away.

    Your touch so gentle upon my skin.

    And, seen beneath the clear blue sky,
    lies a world so delicate and wondrous.

    With perfections inside each flawless word,
    lies the truth of honesty within your soul.

    Your touch so gentle upon my skin.

    And, deep inside that heart of yours,
    I hear the words uttered peacefully.

    With my heart at ease I can catch my breath.
    And, I beg of you to take me away - -

    Because, your touch is so gentle upon my skin.

    Xx Slipped Away xX

    I'm falling apart now
    And slipping away
    Cracking up with every
    Word that you say

    The pieces of me
    Are scattered around
    Their fading away now
    Without a sound

    Keeping it together
    Was all just to much
    I started to break
    Was too fragile to touch

    I thought that my soul
    Was much stronger that this
    Gave up without a fight
    From the very first kiss

    The effect you had on me
    Was too much to bare
    My mind saw this coming
    My heart didn't care

    I'm slipping away now
    And falling apart
    You have all that's left
    So look after my heart

    Forgotten

    I waited for you today,
    My worries held strong,
    Are you still there?
    Do I still belong?

    You never swam to me,
    The trees seperate,
    But I'm forgotten,
    Unleash my fate,

    I cry out with no reply,
    No one's listening,
    You're not listening,
    And the mournings glistening,

    Goodnight sweet angel,
    Your tooth enters my hate,
    A poison wove between us,
    And I know it's far too late,

    I gave you new chances,
    The pieces of me taken,
    I let you catch them falling,
    And these tears will awaken,

    At rest in darkness hidden,
    Now penetrate my skin,
    In the end I'm incomplete,
    In the end you will sin.

    Nobody's Home (CinqTroisDecaLa Rhyme)

    Every-night after work he goes to the bar for a drink
    A couple of Bacardi down, helping clear his mind to think
    Feels like Nobody's Home as she waits for him night after night
    By herself she sits praying for everything to be alright
    Hes at the bar tonight drinking, just hanging out with his friends
    Beatings when he gets home, hiding bruises she tries to pretend
    Long sleeves and glasses praying for pain to finally descend
    Begs for it to stop the abuse continues, lower she sinks
    Maybe she can end it all. Maybe she can end this tonight
    Hes still at the bar and Nobody's Home, finally it ends.

    The CinqTroisDecaLa Rhyme, a form created by Laura Lamarca, consisting of one 10-lined stanza. The rhyme scheme for this form is AABBCCCABC and a syllable count of each line is 15.

    *Fall to pieces*

    Don't bring this up...
    Shelter me with grand illusions created beyond my sight;
    one day all flavors will become one and I'll bleed out
    all bitter tears of sorrow. Numeric voices won't heal me.
    Promise is told: I'd fall to pieces just to protect you.

    Don't go away...
    Havoc of thoughts mantled all bravery in brindled brain,
    leaving me to fight against frantic impulses of make- believes.
    Still, I will live in the lands of Dragons and myths, forever.
    Promise is told: I'd fall to pieces just to protect you.

    Don't break my armor...
    Despair suffocates imagined motions, burning and scarring the skin.
    No muse will confront toxic webs of reality, succumbed to tragedies.
    Cherish my honesty without knowing where it would lead.
    Promise is told: I'd fall to pieces just to protect you.

    Don't pretend that you care
    and maybe I'll stop believing, maybe I'll live once more.
    I'd fall to pieces just to protect you.

    My World

    by DarkSpirit

    Lullabies die,
    the power slowly fades over razed well of reality;
    valley of illusions has been destroyed,
    and it's grayness- shattered in pieces.

    In liquid obscurity of my bloody stars,
    in the spaces behind curtains and gates
    the new hue of alluring blackness is born,
    perfectly erratic creations are risen;

    My world
    and it's echoing rhythm
    paint the blue aura of existence,
    eternally- now- I'm flying...

    The sight's revealing smeared Suns,
    and all rainbows that decorate soul.
    The moon and his silent queen
    are dreaming imagined gods.

    The fire flied from stoned ocean of my entity;
    my world... and his beautiful melodies.

    Keep Holding On [Triquatrain]

    In a world so small, I'm beginning to fall,
    Not knowing how to deal with another day.
    Seeing in black and white, wrong or right,
    Learn to be content with shades of gray.

    Look towards the sky, as life passes by,
    Leaving behind a pale and broken sunset.
    It is time to move on, the past is gone,
    Say goodbye to strife and endless regrets.

    Shoot for the skies, for tomorrow never dies,
    Second chances come and go like seasons.
    Keep holding on, because it's a new dawn,
    Of searching for a place with light and reason.

    The Triquatrain form was created by Robert L. Huntsman. It is a quatrain poem in tri-rhyme with a specific rhyming pattern (see below). Lines 1 and 3 have internal rhyme whereas lines 2 and 4 do not.

    Rhyme Pattern:

    (a,a)
    b
    (c,c)
    b

    (d,d)
    e
    (f,f)
    e

    . . . and so on.

    He Wasn't
    By: *ME*

    When he looked in my eyes,
    Where blue met the brown
    When I thought in his arms
    Comfort could be found

    When time after time
    He could enter my heart
    When he made the sun shine
    Though my whole world was dark

    When he read my mind
    Though I said not a word
    When I talked, he listened
    All my thougths he heard

    When I looked at my future
    I thought he'd be there
    When I dreamed of tomorrow
    I thought he'd still care

    When we were together
    I thought he was fun
    When I thought of forever
    I thoguht he was the one

    He wasn't....

    When my world came crashing
    He broke not my fall
    When I needed a friend,
    I received not his call

    When I prayed for his comfort
    There were no arms
    When danger came calling
    He let me be harmed

    When tears rushed down
    They fell to the floor
    When I came knocking
    He closed all his doors

    When I dream of tomorrow
    I know I'm alone
    When I look for help
    I'm now on my own

    When all seemed lost
    I thought he was the sun
    When I thought of forever
    I thought he was the one

    He wasn't...

    Naked [Trijan Refrain]

    A pedestal, etched with my name:
    Sits, drowned in all my flaws,
    Spitefully, I play his game,
    As he turns to pause,
    "This might take time," He turns and sighs,
    As tears fall down from my tired eyes;
    ...........................This might take time,
    ...........................This might take time,
    So sick of falling for his lies.

    A pedestal, etched with my name:
    Stands under a spotlight,
    With tears, I douse out the last flame,
    During the dead of night.
    Naked I stand, fearing the end --
    Trying my hardest to make amends;
    ...........................Naked I stand,
    ...........................Naked I stand,
    Ripping at a spine that won`t bend.

    A pedestal, etched with my name:
    Stripped of all dignity,
    A model for misconstrued blame,
    That he aims toward me.
    Naked I fall, away from pain,
    Breaking his onyx heart in vain;
    ...........................Naked I fall,
    ...........................Naked I fall,
    Stumbling free of this rusty chain.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    The Trijan Refrain, created by Jan Turner, consists of three 9-line stanzas, for a total of 27 lines. Line 1 is the same in all three stanzas. The first four syllables of line 5 in each stanza are repeated as the double-refrain for lines 7 and 8. The Trijan Refrain is a rhyming poem with a set meter and rhyme scheme as follows:
    Rhyme scheme: a/b/a/b/c/c/d,d refrain of first 4 words of line five /c
    Meter: 8/6/8/6/8/8/4,4 refrain/8

    -------------------------------------------------------------
    If it`s confusing, it`s about a break-up where the girls flaws are always brought up and he won`t bend for any change she suggests for him. In the end, she gets out of the relationship.

    My world

    Trying with great might
    I bare arms in this everlasting fight
    pushing for high hopes
    even though the same thing always shows.

    All efforts put down to rest
    in there tombstones
    inscribed I tried my best.

    But I just cant give in
    having everlasting ammunition
    guides my soul within
    as I have to duel

    My ideals are above all
    so caught in this vortex of
    never ending rises and falls.

    Having life as an enemy
    and will as my friend
    giving ups not an option
    Ill go till the end.
