Shit I'm glad someone made one of these, I have a lot of poems...
Voluntary exclusion from yourself
I step into the darkness, into myself
The cold of my distance
Met only by the light of night
The seat of stone that I choose above the warmth of my home
Greeted by the massage of silver rain against my back
I stare into nothingness
Left to my black thoughts, my cruel intentions
I've put trust in those I know so well
I've given my emotions to those who I love more than I can say
A single tear
Down my cheek like a last chance at happiness.
When lies are all you have left
The darkness consumes you, and all you hold dear
The steps now warm I move on
As if to not want to grow warm, the darkness leads me
The path of damnation is a long one
The darkness consumes me again
I lock the door.
--------------------------------------------------
I've tried to be like who I'm not
I've lived a lie whos demise seems endless
Even those who never frown eventually break down
Now I see what my sacrifice may have to be my own undoing
To ignore what I have put behind me
To let down the ones I hold dear
I shed a final tear
--------------------------------------------------
Separated by worlds who cannot co-exist
I long for you every night
I'd give everything away for a place I can call home
For someone I can come home to
Someone I can hold in my arms.
Alas this is my final prayer
For a life I cannot have
You are all so close
Yet the distance is unbearable
--------------------------------------------------
Empty vessel, carry me away
This is my time to cry
Incorrect of interpretation tongues
You take literal the seriousness of my relationships
I look in your eyes and see barren plains
This is me alone
This is me crying for a love that does not exist
Take me now in my time of need
I'm on my knees, outstretched hand, watering eyes.
--------------------------------------------------
I can't stop what I am hearing from within
Your black thoughts are white in comparison
A shimmering light broken in the wake of my mistake
You say you're all so close
But you're still so distant
I love the way I'll put myself on the line for you
And how you shun me when I ask for help in return
Attached to you, yet I search for the will to break free
I pushed to the limits, I strived for so long
For happiness I cannot endure
This lack of self-control I fear is never ending
I can't find myself again
--------------------------------------------------
The Chameleon
Whirling colors
Adapting to its environment
Blending with its environment
Why the change in appearance
Untrue to yourself
The Chameleon
The impersonator
--------------------------------------------------
What lies beneath?
This hideous visage
The cover unrelated to the contents
Not all gold glitters so brightly
Returned to the shelf
The book is again judged by its cover.
A tedious exercise to understand it
A puzzle in its own
Perhaps the prize is not worth the adventure
Again, return to the shelf
The book is judged by its cover.
--------------------------------------------------
Black temptation
Soothing whisper in my ears
I need you in my life, I can't live without you
You leave as quickly as you come
And I need you again.
You turn my world upside down
And I need you again.
A huddled ball that used to be a man
I shiver now, because I need you
I cry out for you
I do things I thought I'd never do for you
You've ruined my goals, my dreams, and my life
And I cry out for you again...
--------------------------------------------------
A muted purple sky
Draped over a pale green field
A lone wolf, stranded from the tribe
Stares into the distance, his path unclear
Hardship for accomplishment
Pain for pleasure.
An ivory white beacon
An answer in the darkness
Comfort in his solitude
Fear of his loneliness
--------------------------------------------------
Someone walking over my grave
White space forms a shell
A pair look but don't see each other
Joy in a fantasy world through the eyes of an owl
They speak but they can't hear
Satisfaction in an imaginary world
--------------------------------------------------
The blonde haired clone with silver hair
A perfectly shaped man with many impurities
A mainstream communist
A law abidding rebel
The social hermit
The preppy goth
Esoteric!
--------------------------------------------------
Hidden in the cloudy, hive
of thoughts,
Motivation to continue the race,
A way to stand from the crowd,
A way to present my Romeo and Juliet
It, however replenishes my energy,
Forever it drains the life from me,
--------------------------------------------------
The sunlight turns dim,
Black drives through the valley
so play while you can,
Time flys while you're havin' fun,
Watching the hand tick by
so love while you can,
The rain starts to pour from the clouds,
The day always ends with a downside
so you mourn your loss
--------------------------------------------------
Jimmy was a llama, an easy target,
They would give him a beating he'd never forget,
Jimmy said he'd raise above the herd,
He'd leave his shame behind,
He lived his life as anyone should,
A hard work of survival from his lions and a harder play time,
He rose above his fate
--------------------------------------------------
Open your eyes, hide your pride
to aid yourself and realize,
Lone wolf,
Your demons reawaken,
Your soft demeanor roughens around the perimeter,
Silver justice surfaces,
Their ignorance will not be their bliss,
Tip tip tip, don't wake the trees,
The wrath of a sleeping foe strikes hardest.
--------------------------------------------------
A cement wall
to hinder the growth,
A barren field lacking sunlight,
My armies could not break the wall,
You stood strong
in your dispositioning ways,
The blame lands on my allies,
I've done my part,
A war on two fronts cannot be won alone.
--------------------------------------------------
Time after time how I've
let you chip away at me,
Given so much
and asked for so little,
"Let me take those bags for you,"
A doormat cleans your feet before you enter
your house and is forgotten afterwards,
While a couch creates many a memory and
even at the brink of its demise,
you cannot bear to throw it away
Who's to say which is "greater"
and which is "lesser"?
And who is to categorize one
another to either group?
My actions come from my heart,
My intentions from my soul,
Good natured
but less than nurtured.
--------------------------------------------------
Our bond,
Our pain,
The two we hold the same,
Dear to each other but
hated by one another.
The weakness we shared,
The demons we purged
My friend at heart,
Your enemy in entirety.
An empty shell you've become,
Raped and pillaged of your
glowing personality.
--------------------------------------------------
---Anuptaphobia---
No matter the intensity of it all
there's few words I can say,
Value in honesty and freedom of emotion
but there's so much I won't say
Inside I'm not of my outside
Light shines down on me,
The color uncertain,
I fear what I won't say.
When will I let myself be free?
When will I risk myself for advance?
I follow my knees rather than my heart
Wishes are for dreamers
and actions for the strong,
Strength of heart,
Weakness of cowardace,
In my heart certainty prevails
but I still follow my knees.
--------------------------------------------------
Another night has taken flight
I watch another chance disappear
out of site into the horizon
The past stronger than his present
He sits alone draped in a black blanket
scrambling to pick up his pieces,
Empty inside.
Over analytical natured,
He knows the square root,
It's beat into his head
like morals to a rapist.
The way he feels
he promised was 'cause of your face
You
Bring everything from inside
and leave them outside
He's lost in his theories

this is poetry!
