Poem Contest

i have one^^

To DArk Eyes Dreaming
Dreams go fast and far these days
They go by rocket thrust
They go arrayed in lights or in
the dust of stars
Dreams these days
go fast and far
Dreams are young, or very old
They can be black or blue or gold
They need no special charts,
nor any fuel. It seems only one rule,
applies to all our dreams-
They will not fly except in open sky
a fenced in dream will die

Do you realize what you've done?
Even the dumbest person wouldn't stoop this low.
At the time it seemed like a good idea, didn't it?
That was when you were naive.
How did this even happen?

Things just went wrong....
Over the top.

Poor poor thing.
Are you really being honest with me?

To tell the truth no....

Reason with me, why did you hurt Patrick?

It's none of your business now is it?

Calm down now, no need to get violent.

Know what?! I hurt him because of him. He's just a smart ass....

Being irrational doesn't solve anything... I'm sure he didn't mean it.
Really...truly..

Oh my fucking god are you serious? That bastard had it come. And if it wasn't for the fact there
Was a crowd, he would have died.
Now the damage is done. And I want death to that lying, smart ass

(I made an acrostic poem
:D)

All alone in this world
Darkness taking me in
No one can save me its too late
But someone manages
He's my life now
I call him Master
I do everything he says to do
I love him with all my heart
But then he falls in love with another girl
And i am left alone again
But i stay where i am
He still orders me
And i still listen
Because of that one reason he must never know
But now im back in the drakness
No one will ever know...

(i just made this and i put it on quizilla too ^-^)

Living this reprimanded lifestyle,
The moment in which I am held,
Solely existing in this way,
Meandering through the passage,
Getting to this time just to see
An instant to become a we.
Whilst crossing an endless footbridge,
A look to see this day by day.
I will wait, for boats have sailed.
Awaiting watch down the aisle.

Final...

Alone I walk this winding way,
Day by day,
That has become my life

Darkly dreaming,
Without meaning,
The beginning of the end.

These broken streets,
My weary feet,
No closer to my friends.

The pain I moan,
So far from home,
Beside myself with grief.

The bridge I climb,
Out of my mind,
This, my last last hurrah.

The bridge it caves,
An early grave,
My final curtain call.

(I wrote this on the spot in my business class ^^)

My heart races when I see you standing there in the crowd.

It beats so fast that I can’t hear myself think.

You walk up to me with a big smile on your face.

I smile back as my heart beats faster.

You wrap your arms around me and whisper in my ear.

I start to blush and you laugh.

You hold me closer and I lean against your chest.

I can hear your heart beat.

It’s beating as fast as mine.

I smile because I know it’s true.

You love me just as I love you.

Here's something I decided to write and enter.

Somebody once told me that the length of our lives can be fit through the floorboards
God had created death first
The realization was that death was too quick and needed something to draw towards it
Thus, we are given life
We are born and given choices equal to "Pick a door"
Opprotunities are limited to birth
We are put into inadequate space
We want to leave
We find what we wanted in the place we wanted to leave the most
Home is where the heart is
Whoever said that was terrible at anatomy
The chest is where the heart is, moron

((alot of people on gaia said it was deep and they liked it so i want to see if anyone on here likes it ^_^))
when the war bells rang and the battle began soliders died
a enemy lost
a friend won
but at what cost is it
to lose your your enimies enemy
for you to lose a friend
or posssibly your own life
but the real story
is when eneimies
see eye to eye
and forgot the world
become friends
and learn to care for one another
through
the good
the bad
the pretty
the ugly
its just life
and all life is
is a big war were everyone is around you

I can't pretend to you.
I can't lie to you.
You immobilize me.
Through your beauty,
And your love for me.

Why?
Why do you love me?
Why would you risk everything for me?
I can't stop.
I won't stop loving you.
You're everything to me.

NO.
No don't go.
Don't leave me lying here.
All alone without you.
I can't take it.
Why are you doing this?
Why do you pretend?
Why do you lie to me?
I can't take it.
This pain and suffering.
Why do you do this to me?

It hurts.
You're gone,
And you took me with you.
I won't stand this.
I will fight for my heart back.
You've lied to me.
You've cheated me.

No.
No more.
I won't accept this suffering.
I will live without you.
I can take it.
I can live without you.
I can survive.
So if you come back,
My answer will be:
No.
Not again.
You won't ruin my life again.

You'd give anything now,
To be with me.
But I stay to my answer.
You'll break down,
Just as I had.
You can't take it,
You just can't take it

Title: Unknown(couldn't think of one)
---------------------
My first reason why
Is it's time for me to be stronger
And I can't live with all your lies
So I can stay with you no longer

I can't help it if this upsets you
But it's time for me to go
Who knows if what we had was true
And I don't care if you say no

You might have thought it was a game
You might have had some fun
But the red roses delivered by your name
Have turned a deep night black

My heart has been broken into two
And no one is there to heal it
No one is there to make it new
And no one is there to see it

By now you're half way through
And if you're looked out
You've probably seen me looking at you
Nice and quiet without a shout

Just continue to read this
After all I'm not important to you
Just pretend I'm still a Miss
Since you found someone new

It probably seems kind of warm in there
But it is almost summer
I've probably left your view by now
You might say I'm feeling better

I hope by now you noticed
That there are crimson flames
They're all around your house you see
I did this while you read

There is one more thing after this
So you might as well continue to read
The flames are probably closing in now
And I left after I finished my deed

If you're still able to read this
You see I let you live longer by ten seconds
Out of the kindness of my heart
By now the grim beckons

So long my dear
As the darkness draws near
I have one thing left to ask.....
How was your final seconds before death?

Lets Live
By: Itasuku Nioto

One day
Every day
Some day
All day.

We stumble along our daily routine
Over and over
A needle on a broken record.

Until one day.
The record breaks
And we breath our last breath
And live the last second of that daily routine.

So why stumble?
In the dark.
With out feet tangled in the monotony of life.
Going nowhere but down?

Lets go up instead.
Somewhere...where it's not quite so

One day
Every day
Some day
All day.

And lets escape the broken record.
Breaking on that fateful day.

Lets....live.....

My So Called “Love”

My life is lost without you.
You don’t even know.
My life is nothing without your love.

Why did you leave me?
I have no clue.
I think you may have found someone new.

My heart is breaking into millions of pieces.
And only you can mend my broken heart.
The question is, Would you even try?

I have cried for so long that I cannot cry anymore.
All I can do is think about the memories we once shared.
But when I play back the memories we once had
Tears start to fall cause now I know I won’t be yours anymore.

I try to figure out what went wrong
But deep inside I thought our love was strong
I guess in your head I was just part of a game

Every time I tried to call all that I feel inside of me is rejection.
A little piece of my heart is tearing apart.
Why am I here staring at the phone knowing that you’d never return my call?

So I continue to try and continue to be denied.
My life is slowly fading and you don’t even care.
So I’m tired of all this crap that you’ve put me through.

I am going to do something and leave our “love” behind
I am going to keep my head up high and move on
Because there is no reason for me to wait here for you as I sit here alone.

So goodbye my love.
This is the end.
Please don’t come back ever again.

The Walk

Slowly down a path of grey
every shadow seems to have faded away
I'm holding on to the world so tight
the dullness always seems to bright
falling in and falling out
holding the world fills me with pain and doubt
what is to come and what is to say
the rain might as well wash me away
wash away the sins i've cried
through the perile my friends have died
I will follow my heart to die
even the hand that holds so tight
will not make it through another hopeless fight
even if I stuggled all day
the pain and hurt will follow me on my way
I slip and watch you come and go
forever will my shadow know
the sins the lies and the perilizing cries
a crimson of blue that holds so true
a tight grip that will never pull through
and so I seep a dull little grey
this walk of hurt will never fade away
like everything you've said and more
my heart has died
the grey will fade
the red will poor out on a rainy day
I've walked this path and wish to stay
the path of death , now please be brave


to all those lost souls

by Sienna Tsumari

(those who dont have time, dont read this its waaay too long)

It comes down to this,
The life i thought i'd never miss..
Missed the colors of the world,
My mindless sight is black and blurred..
Cant seem to find those that guided me,
Ive got to make this life make sense to see..

I'm at the bottom of my insanity-dug pit,
Then again i realize im so far down and life doesn't seem fit..
I shiver in the cold of my own lies,
Avoiding all the curious, watchful eyes..
Hundred feet into the ground, where the sun ceases to shine
Hoping someone would lift me out of my sin and lies bind..

Then again i find myself so far down,
Trying to smile, but end as a clown..
I want to find myself in the arms of those i love
They try to reach me from above..
I bury myself in my own misery,
Ruled outlaw by the grand jury..

But they can see what ive done,
Outcast, shunned..
I sink deeper into the darkness yet i've given up..
But then just when i thought i'd lost my last inch of luck..
A light shines for me,
For a split second, myself was all i could see..

I saw myself so far down,
Looking back at me, the same clown..
I felt as if it were a mirror image, it was not. No,
It was the second half of myself the one that was a no-show
We looked at each other through the same brown eyes,
I noticed the clowns eyes were red from her cries..

It comes down to this,
I've got to make my life make sense
I either jump back so far down,
Or follow the light to where i wanted to be bound..
I turned away from the clown and started to walk away,
But before i took another step i heard her say

"For us.. Live the colorful life we dreamt of"
I looked back to see her looking at me above..
The clown smiled one last time, then the walls caved in..
I threw out my hand, but it was too late. It was dead, who i'd believed i'd been..
Her last words rang through my head,
The tracks of my tears on my face were sticky, But a voice from within me said..

"Live today tomorrow and everyday after that for me. i cant but you can.. Live the dream, for us"
