Here's one I wrote last nite..it's really short though...

Short Poem #1

Memories fading into a crimson bliss
As I recieve Lady Death's cold kiss.
Reflecting ponds of pains long past
Give way to souls drowning, and drowning fast.
Oh why do I have to die alone?
I scream silently, as Cerebus tears away at my bones.



-enjoy.

[White Raven]

White Raven -- Version 2

"Bereavement and honourless death
Is one of humanity's downfalls
To long for the knife
Without pity for your own life
Is surely the saddest of them all
For the answers to this question I seek
For the meanings to all this I implore
The echoes of desperation
And the errors of human contemplation
It becomes almost impossible to ignore

The constant struggle to be vain
Succulent lies in written word
The irony is lifted
With the conscience that is shifted
And an adoring eye for the absurd
To hold close what I think is real
And shed away the meaningless lies
To see with eyes unclouded by hate
And see for a moment the threads of fate
Feel near my heart the universe's ties


But what can I do,"

The bird sighed.
"I am simply a raven whose feathers are of white
Who sits on this post and watches the world
Turn so speedily slowly
And the clouds pass by my head
And the field mice carry out their duties
Amongst the swaying lifeless stalks."

The Dreamer in Me


I sit staring at a picture of the happier times
Wandering if it could ever be the same as before.
When we were happy together, just us, no more.
The times we would sit and stare into each other's eyes.
But alas, that is just the Dreamer in me.

Could I gather the strength to somehow make things right?
Could I beseech the Gods of Love to make her see?
Can I somehow manage to make her fall for me?
Do I dare to partake in this plight?
No, that is just the Dreamer in me.

I stare at the telephone sitting silently on my counter
Wondering if she would simply just answer my call
I would talk to her for hours, forgetting it all
What are the chances of this encounter?
None, that is just the Dreamer in me.

I lay in my bed, ready for another sleepless night.
I stare at the ceiling, watching the swirls of nothingness
Hoping that somehow, I will lose conciousness.
I stare for hours, should I gain something from the sight?
No, that is just the Dreamer in me.

I awaken to the deafening silence of lonliness.
I open my bedroom door to the sight of depression
Of clothes left strewn, of tear-soaked regression.
Should I clean my life and start anew from this?
No, that is just the Dreamer in me.

Enjoy...

Dead End Slob

In the beginning work was good
I came in whenever I could
But when she started working here
It became the one thing I started to FEAR

For my life
I didn’t want to end it with a knife
So chose not to
But now I think I’m through

With my job
I’ll just stay at home and become a slob
All over a simple girl
One who almost made me hurl

I’ll talk to a thousand strangers a day
And never think of some way
To get this one out of my mind
Needle in a haystack, but so easy to find

Now I don’t even want to work
If I do I’ll end up going berserk
What to do now with myself?
Should go back to sitting on the shelf

I’d never thought this occupation
But I’ll trade it in for a better situation
If I could, I’d undo the past
Too bad good things never last

By: Lyle Wilson

yep, life continues to suck the ass

I used an existing poem and my mind to create a rendition of what it's trying to say...I thought it turned out pretty cool and feel free to d/l or view my new wallpaper!

Never fall

[Jedi Gemstone]

Great poems guys
I just wrote this new one of mine -

Suicide

Why do I seem to hate myself?
Its like no-one cares about me
I help them
I'm there for them
Yet there never here for me
Stars glimmer a dull gloomy twilight
The moon gleams a deathfull glare
I sit alone in the darkness
Watching the cloudless sky

Everyones life is so much better
Why can't I take there life?
Swap lives with a popstar
Whom gets happiness for free
Why wont God answer my prays?
Doesnt he have time for me?
Questions, questions resound in my head
My troubles no-one takes in
If I had cuts on my wrist who would notice? no-one
I might as well be dead

My only company a blood striken silver sabre
Which has met my sorrows before

The steel comes down caressing my skin
A flicker of the wind
Rain pecks the glass
My only concourse inflicts dainty scrawls
Like writing on a wall

Hearing voices in my head
Do it, do it again
Delving the knife yet deeper
Deeper below my skin
So deep that crimson regret spills
Full of betrayl and hate
A hazy world sacrificed
As my whole life crashes down
Sparkles of an energy flowing away from me
Like a river
A bright vibrant light like a tunnel
A darkness fills my soul
I'm turned into the firey depths of hell
Where the devil taunts all.

hope you like it
