MemoriesLost
April 15th, 2012, 10:14 AM
I found my old poetry journal yesterday. Here's my best ones- Oldest to newest.
1. Lonely
My heart feels so empty.
My mouth feels so dry.
My eyes won't stop crying.
I do not know why.
I slowly lost hope,
for I let no one in.
The pain that this causes me
may be the worst sin.
You can never escape
from your own deadly mind
when dark thoughts of suicide
keep flitting inside.
If you find a way out
please tell me the way
for I never can find one
with each passing day.
Every word is a blade
that cuts way too deep.
Please give me a heart
and wake me from this sleep.
Every dream is a nightmare
Every step is a fall
and I never can hear
the kind lover's call.
I get lost in myself
all tangled in thought,
you best keep your distance
or you might get caught.
The world just keeps going,
this pain never ending
why cant I find hope
or no fair soul befriending.
Each word that I've spoken
is like each fallen tree,
abandoned, and hurt
or just plain lonely.
2. Halloween Midnight
Scaring children
Dressing up
Eating candy
Throwing up.
Full moon
Shining bright
Watch your back
Or get a fright.
Halloween
Such a scene
Horror movies
Like The Ring.
Scaring friends
And laughing loud
Waking neighbors
(that old cow).
Caring little
In the middle
Of the night
Of fun and fright.
Not a care
Within the air
On Halloween Midnight.
3. Days Pass By
The clock won't stop moving,
My dreams won't stop ending,
The pain keeps returning
With it's breathtaking blows.
My heart won't stop beating,
My eyes won't stop leaking,
My mind won't stop racing
Through the days of regret.
The seasons keep changing,
The stars just keep twinkling,
And others keep living
Without a worry at all.
My eyes are still crying,
My dreams are still dying,
My heart is still bleeding
Into the core of my soul.
The days are still going,
They seem never-ending,
I can't stop myself feeling
Like this will go on forever.
The torture, the agony
The tears deep inside.
The pressure and sadness
I know will not end.
Just close your eyes tight
And forget in the night
And never think again
About the hidden regrets.
You can't lie to yourself
Or hide the truth on a shelf,
For it will always return
And kill you slowly.
4. Trapped
The music flooded through my ears
I couldn't hear through my own tears
Songs of many a thousand years
Can't smother any of my fears.
I knew that I was lost deep inside
And no one would ever hear as I cried
Lord, please, I beg you take me away
Before the sun sinks and it's the end of this day.
I waited for angels, or maybe a demon
To drag me away and tell me that I'm dreaming;
But I knew one would never; or so it was seeming
So maybe I should just forget my own needing.
I know now how far my one small life is slipping
I see now how all of my dreams just keep tripping,
Will I ever escape, I no longer know
My tears really are there, I just don't let them show.
Someday my dead bleeding heart and it's pieces
Will be found in the dirt with unfixable creases,
Who will find it, my goodness, I fear to find out,
But they may treat it well despite all my doubt.
All my thoughts and my fears are filling the page
And not one can free me from this torturous cage,
For the cage is my mind, and it's barely alive,
But if it breaks you can't say that I never did try.
I feel eyes boring in as tears pour from my eyes,
I ignore them, although I know "pain" is no lie
I sit there ignoring the agony inside
I wish I could leave, I wish I could slide.
5. Morning's Glow
The sun is warm
And brightly yellow,
The flowers bloom
A morning hello.
The breeze blows lightly
Through the trees,
Small animals scurry
Alongside the bees.
Dew scatters the grass
Like a lone angel's tears,
The sky's blue is shining
As it has all these years.
Every object is stained
By the calm golden light,
And one must admit
That it's a beautiful sight.
The wind ruffles my hair
As I step into the day,
I breathe it in slowly
And continue on my way.
The river is flowing
With no beat to follow,
But the sound is still music
No matter how hollow.
The air's smell is sweet
And fills me like drink,
I know in this day
My mood cannot sink.
Birds whistle a tune
Much unlike the rest,
For it's a tune of new life
And I think it's the best.
I have learned a knew lesson
And you too may know,
That all this peace and magic
Is a gift of morning's glow.
6. Christmas Eve
Frost sparkles lightly on the trees,
Small plants are chilled by a winter breeze,
Each flake falls lightly to the ground,
Somehow they land without a sound.
The North Star sparkles in the night,
And children sleep with spirits bright,
The wait for morning seems too long,
But the air is filled with angel's song.
Sweet smells of cookies fill all homes,
And not one soul is fully alone,
There's Christmas trees with colored lights,
And festive wrapping is in sight.
Clock is ticking endlessly,
Yet no one thought to turn the key,
The fire's light is shining warm,
Each flicker changes its bright form.
The magic makes my heart alive,
When will the man in red arrive,
The anxious feeling fills my bones,
Then I can hear the jingle bell's tones.
I sprint up from my bed's green covers,
I fly to the window and fling open the shutters,
Snow sting's my face without my care,
For I hear bell songs everywhere.
Nine reindeer fly a bright red sleigh,
The one in front will light the way,
I don't know their names but I do know one thing,
I know the joy that they will bring.
My family sleeps so safe in their beds,
None know what dream path they all tread,
I know when they wake the thing they will see
Is bright paper packages under the tree.
7. Isolated
My house is a prison,
The dark has arisen,
Trapped behind locked doors,
Nothing left to explore.
No life outside this room
Filled with silence and gloom,
No escape finds it's way
To bring light to the gray.
Nothing left to distract
How my life has been cracked,
No way to numb the pain
That I so often contain.
The anger inside me
Makes it impossible to see
Any good in this earth
That so lacks any mirth.
My voice never is heard,
Then my anger is stirred,
I can't show it for fear
Of shedding a tear.
I abandoned myself,
My heart out of reach on a shelf,
I no longer care,
I'm no longer aware.
How long must this life last,
Always trapped behind glass,
Where smiles are nonexistent,
And my mind is so distant.
I don't know who I am,
And I don't give a damn,
I just want this to end,
Not caring who I offend.
8. Secrets
A thing that is not made for sharing,
You will be blessed or cursed for bearing
This tiny object that can't be touched,
You need to keep it safe from much.
Don't speak it aloud to a single soul,
Weather it is a hope or desire or goal,
For once you do it's title is lost,
And do not think it won't come with a cost.
Keep it locked up; all hidden inside,
But don't let it's darkness turn into pride,
For even the dark has a small light hidden,
But to let it shine is so strictly forbidden.
If it starts to haunt your dreams,
Ignore it till you stop your screams,
It will be fine I promise you,
Just ensure that your secrets true.
Once the dark creeps to your mind,
You will find your heart is blind,
You let it take your soul and body,
Now you will lie forever bloody.
You may prove the liars false,
You may lose faith in your own pulse,
Whatever happens just remember this,
You won't let the secret into the abyss.
Think of those who will use it against you,
How your life will go askew,
All will be gone forevermore,
Was this not all you could ask for.
So keep your secret from all others,
Give them nothing more than simple answers,
Whether close or whether far,
Don't forget who they really are.
9. Watch Me Bleed
Would you like to watch me bleed
While you sit on your throne of greed,
While I die here at your feet,
Will you care for the lives that you cheat?
Will you catch me if I fall,
Will you answer if I call,
Will you care if I give you my heart,
Or will you break it and tear me apart?
Can you hear me scream your name,
Can you smother my internal flame,
Do you feel me touch your back,
Or is it just as silent as black?
You have hurt me far too deep,
You have made me lose my sleep,
Now I am dying painfully,
But I will stand with you faithfully.
I am your friend whatever you say,
And for your soul I always pray,
I want you in my life you see,
But I don't think you do agree.
To you I'm just another rock,
Another tick of a plain old clock,
To you I'm nothing worth your care,
But tell me if you see me there.
I still care for you more than ever,
No matter how beautiful or clever,
I love you just for who you are,
To me your always the brightest star.
You may try to hurt me worse,
You may want my life to curse,
I will fight until the end,
Until my heart will finally mend.
I'll be here when you turn around,
I'll be here when you leave your crown,
But I want the old you; the one who cares,
I want the one who not breaks, but repairs...
I want you.
10. Heal
My small heart was broken,
So beyond repair,
My dreams they were dying,
And not one did care.
I lived through it alone,
Not even once being seen,
I took the world on my shoulders,
Slowly losing my sheen.
No ray of sunshine came in
To my own useless life,
Nor did even a flicker
Of anything other than strife.
Try to escape if you will
But I can promise you this;
You will find only chill
From all those you miss.
I have lost all I love,
But I'm starting to see,
Why should I care for them
If they care not for me?
I let them all go
To their own pits in hell,
I just let them all fall,
Into their own spell.
Now I may be alone
And still tears may shed,
But I don't care any longer,
For all my blood has been bled.
This curtain of dark
May now finally reveal
That my life of no love
Is beginning to heal.
11. Impossible
The basilisk gives a deadly hiss,
The spell is broken by true love's kiss,
The evil witch melts to the ground,
The beautiful mermaid can't utter a sound.
The sword slashes through the warlock's chest,
The cowardly knight fights at his best,
None of the good receive any harm,
And as the bad die, so do their charms.
The worlds full of joy and caring for all,
They pick others up whenever they fall,
The love is just to much to hold,
There's nothing black or dark or cold.
This strange new world blows my whole mind,
Why are all of the people kind,
I wonder if it will soon stop,
I'm waiting for my dreams to drop,
This can't be real- It cant be true,
When did the sky become so blue,
I know this all is just an act,
Or maybe my mind isn't quite intact.
These faeries and their wings of light,
The dragons with eyes shining bright,
The lack of pain confuses me,
Why doesn't anyone try to flee.
This is only a crazy dream,
Nothing is as it would seem,
Perhaps this is an overdose,
Or maybe I fell into a dose.
All I know is this isn't real,
My constant hurt I can't now feel,
Soon this will all disappear,
And then I'll see my absent tears.
Look at all these stupid tales,
Leaving all their deadly trails,
I think it will be quite agreeable
That all of this is just impossible.
12. Agony
Cut out my heart
It's your to take,
Just rip it apart
Ease the pain of it's break.
The dark keeps creeping in
And making me bleed,
It tortures me with sin
So that it may feed.
So I give it to you
I want it no longer,
It's piercing me through
And it's just getting stronger.
Tears may drown me today
While I try hard to heal,
For once I may pray
While I try to conceal.
No one may see my pain
Even though it's so large,
I can feel my gore rain
With an agonizing charge.
The acid is in my soul
And not in my words,
My eyes have grown black as coal
And I cannot move forwards.
Where are my friends now
When I need them the most,
Will my mind even allow
To believe they weren't ghosts?
I feel so alone
That I can't even stand,
I guess I should have known
That I can take no one's hand.
Shall I live on or die
I wonder all day,
I don't even want to try
I think I'm too far astray.
My gut aches with grief
Much more strong than before,
And this pain isn't brief
It just continues to pour.
The pills look inviting
The blade sends a smile,
Will I keep fighting
Or try and leave for awhile?
13. Hardened
I don't know where to go from here,
I don't know what to say,
All I want to do is disappear,
I wish to go away.
My hands just tremble with no rest,
My tears have all run dry,
My heart was ripped out of my chest,
I have no more emotions to cry.
The entire world has gone all cold,
The colors all gone gray,
While everything slowly unfolds,
I feel myself decay.
I never want to laugh again,
Or show a single smile,
All I know is hurt and pain,
There's more with every mile.
The people here are all too cruel,
I don't want to hear their lies,
I'm slowly running out of fuel,
And everything I now despise.
I feel the life losing it's sheen,
I'm running low on time,
I see your faces- so unclean,
That's why I write this rhyme.
Though I like not one of you,
I hate myself much more,
I want my words to still be true,
I want to end my war.
I never laugh or even cry,
I no longer show my feelings,
My heartstrings never will untie,
From all of my dealings.
This is my farewell to you,
The world and all you in it,
I never feel a bit of rue,
I must now admit.
The girl you knew is more than dead,
She's never coming back,
She has no more tears to shed,
Now that all is black.
14. Decisions
"The stars will shine tomorrow
If you make it through the day,
There will be an end to all this sorrow,
No matter what they say.
I'll stand right by you through it all
Even as they bring you down,
I'll pick you up whenever you fall,
I know we'll never drown."
When will I believe those words true
When will I ever feel joy,
You told me that we'd start anew
And my life I would enjoy.
You took my life and ran away
You never gave it back,
Now even though I plead and pray
My heart still has a crack.
My tears ran dry a week ago
When I let them all free,
Now no love I'll ever show
Nor will I ever see.
My soul was made of paper
It's no surprise it ripped,
I see my life through vapor
I feel like I have slipped.
These lies you know I don't believe
You don't believe them too,
I'll never leave my heart on my sleeve
I just wish before I knew.
The past will not come back to me
It hurts me more than ever,
That lovely pitch black hanging tree
Is looking very clever.
Maybe I will hold on tight
And feel my body swing,
I'll die right there during the night
Not caring for a thing.
My plan sounds just too easy
Just dying by that tree,
Maybe I will bring a friend
Or even two or three.
I'll bring my little toy giraffe
And a cool glass of water,
The toy will die with me and laugh
The glass will witness my slaughter.
A memory and one last drink
It seems I am prepared,
I'll give myself no time to rethink
I won't let myself get scared.
Maybe I will see you again
Maybe my neck won't break,
I question if I am still sane
Or if I'll ever wake.
Well then we shall see quite soon
If the rope can do it's job,
I'll wait until the fullest moon
And release my final sob.
15. Torment
I hear the quiet voice of death
Whisper as I try to sleep,
I feel the breeze of it's cool breath
Make me want to leave and weep.
He tells me of another place
Where I won't feel pain,
He says it's filled with joy and grace
And I won't be hurt again.
I hear his voice say "Come with me"
My mind begins to race,
I wonder if he has the key
To this happy sunny place.
I close my eyes and shake my head
I do not trust this voice,
I feel my stomach fill with dread
He says "Now make a choice"
I ignore the haunt right next to me
I try to block it out,
Although I know he'll make me free
I just can't shake away my doubt.
Then he begins to sing a song
Still asking me to leave,
He knows I just want to belong
And someone to see me and believe.
This torment is too much
I feel tears start to flow,
My heart he already did touch
Too much he came to know.
I'm willing him to leave me be
I'm screaming for a break,
I tell him that his words hurt me
And I'm not his to take.
This song is burning me all through
I can think straight no longer,
I know the words are too untrue
And they won't make me stronger.
All worlds are filled with hurt and blood
Not even death is an escape,
I'll always be thrown in the mud
This song will always scrape.
Death's lullaby will burn forever
I can't forget the tune,
I will be trapped for never and ever,
I will never become immune.
Don't let the song into your dreams
It will flay your soul,
It will rip apart the seams
That hold together control.
16. Nature's Senses
Don't you hear the rain? It speaks,
As it falls down in gentle sheets,
It whispers quick and hits the ground,
It's song was just a simple sound.
Do you see the stars? They shine,
And capture little dreams of mine,
They keep one's wishes safe and warm,
But vanish at the rise of a storm.
Can you feel the red rose thorn,
Made by the angels for widows to mourn?
It brings a nightmare,but also a kiss,
That shows you what you sorely miss.
Can't you smell the dew drops fall,
As they rest on pine trees; green and tall?
The sweet scent gets into your mind,
And makes you feel like you could shine.
Will you taste the sky so blue,
That keep your soul so sweet and true?
White fluffy clouds just soar across,
They look so beautiful, but lost.
This nature gets into your dreams
And picks at the edge of your bodiless seams,
It frees your imagination- it sings and inspires,
And burns all the torments in bright smokeless fires.
17. Noganiel ((NO-GEN-EEY-ULL))
Noganiel, My dearest queen,
Noganiel, My life and dream,
Noganiel, I rest with you,
Noganiel, I feel no rue.
You said you would keep me from harm,
You saved my soul with a simple charm,
You closed your eyes and blew a kiss,
And sent my mind into the abyss.
I rest my soul into your hands,
I link our hearts with metal bands,
I know our meeting can't be chance,
I feel my love for you enhance.
Come with me; We'll run away,
Come and start a brand new day,
Come and show our love can grow,
No one ever has to know.
Run my love, do not turn back,
Run before the guards attack,
I'll kill them if your blood is shed,
I will not live if you are dead.
Run into the woods of Green,
Do not let yourself be seen,
Soon I will come back for you,
Unless a sword shall pierce me through.
Please don't cry; You will be fine,
Please no tears; The sun will shine,
I love you so with all my heart,
I will not let them tear you apart.
Farewell for now, we'll meet again,
Go into hiding until then,
Go! Go now! Their horses come,
I shall fight until I'm numb.
****
I write this as life slips along,
I write this as my joy, my song,
Do not forget I loved you so,
Do not be overcome by woe.
Live on your life without the pain,
Live without the hurt and vain,
Just close your eyes and hum this tune,
I'll always be with you, for I am the moon.
My magic couldn't win my fight,
My spells were nothing in the night,
But now your safe, and so am I,
Now we no longer have to cry.
So long,
Farewell,
Goodnight,
Until.
18. Gaia
Sweet goddess of all life and birth,
My bringer of all joy and mirth,
I wish that I could hold you close,
You know it is your hand I chose.
Meet me by the church at nine,
Meet me and I'll make you mine,
We'll last until the world comes down,
We'll let it go and leave this town.
Your beauty is beyond compare,
Your eyes so blue and face so fair,
You travel through my dreams at night,
And make it feel like wrong is right.
***
I love him but I cannot say,
I want him but I cannot stay,
I must untruth to save his life,
Although it may cause us both strife.
I'm sorry sir, I don't love you,
And what you spoke I know was true,
Wipe your eyes and try a smile,
I promise we won't be worthwhile.
Your heart will rest in another hand,
You will not sink into the sand,
Such love will come beyond your hope,
But you and I may not elope.
***
I could not touch my Gaia's heart,
She told me that I must depart,
I do not want to live today,
For my life has now gone gray.
I will meet her at the tree,
She will see what's happened to me,
She need not worry anymore,
I do not want to be a chore.
The goddess of life will feel my death,
She'll hear the sound of my last breath,
She will know as my neck breaks,
What her soft heart from me takes.
***
I felt a pain much worse then ever,
I felt my chest's deep insides sever,
I knew at once that he was dead,
I heard his breath inside my head.
I ran away into the trees,
And what I there saw made me freeze,
His neck was hung with lengths of rope,
And it scraped around it's grope.
He had killed himself for me,
He had come right to this tree,
I feel that this is all my fault,
The tree, the rope, and self assault.
I held his body close to mine,
I knew that he was out of time,
I kissed his lips and counted to three,
And the he was a blossom placed on the tree.
Soft white petals counting five,
A flower very much alive,
She cried and named the flower this-
She named her lover Amaryllis.
***
I felt a breath come through my core,
And saw the goddess I adore,
She had tears running down her face,
I wanted to be inside her embrace.
Then I knew what she had done,
I felt the knowledge send a stun,
She had made my life return,
She had lied about her spurn.
Now I knew she loved me back,
She had healed my hearts deep crack,
Now we will never be alone,
If only I had already known.
19. A Heart's Hymn
Your eyes are like a burst of fire,
Your smile fills me with desire,
My care for you is beyond measure,
Your love lives as my greatest treasure.
The thought of you removes my fears,
To see your face dissolves my tears,
Although most times my voice is weak,
I still find joy to hear you speak.
I pray our bond will stay unbroken,
I hope your heart may be my token,
Quite often you venture into my dreams,
And learn that I am more than I seem.
I cannot describe the feeling you bring,
Or the leap in my heart every time that you sing,
I used to watch you from afar,
And still you are the brightest star.
All through the days- both bright and dim,
I strain my thoughts and scribe this hymn,
Yet as I let my mind out pour,
I wish I'd said this all before.
Your words are carefully placed notes,
Each time you speak the sound just floats,
I wish with you I had more time,
So just for you I write this rhyme.
I love you.
20. Mirror
Mirror, Mirror, please enhance
Why I can't even have a chance,
I try so hard yet tears still fall,
Please help me, Mirror on the wall.
My face has some spots here and there,
I have odd eyes and not much hair,
How does this make me less than you-
You know you are not perfect too?
Mirror, Mirror, hold my hand;
Teach me how to proudly stand,
Please tell me what I need to know,
Or somewhere kind that I can go.
I've searched until my soul is raw
For someone who's heart I may thaw,
I failed so much my pride so aches,
I long for help till my heart breaks.
Mirror, why can I not see
What I am on Earth to be?
I'll think until my mind is bleeding,
And my knowledge is no more exceeding.
I feel so useless and alone
Because my light has never shown,
I live inside my spirit's shadow,
And guard my thoughts until tomorrow.
Mirror broken on the floor,
Is to love me such a chore?
Am I a burden and a bore?
Will my soul always be sore?
Does anyone alive adore?
Is this my only stock and store?
Does my life hold something more?
Shall I record all my lore?
Why is my mind such a violent shore?
Was I like this long before?
Answer me...
21. The Girl On Fire
She burns in my heart with a fire so bright,
She'll sing with the birds, but won't give up the fight,
She protects her sister and swallows her pride,
But tells no one that she is hurting inside.
She fought in the Games without losing her breath,
But it shattered her heart at the time of Rue's death,
So she sang her a hymn and the jays sang along,
She found that the deaths in this place were all wrong.
She refuses to be just a piece in the Games,
Her partner (And boy with the bread) feels the same,
She promised Dear Prim she would come out alive,
And so to kill Cato she swears she will strive.
The rules soon were changed, so she searched in mud,
And there she found Peeta with his poisoned blood,
Then they shared their first kiss in a cave in the dark
Out of terrible hope to save Peeta Mallark.
Katniss ventured to save him and was stopped by Clove fast,
But Thresh saved her for he remembered Rue's past,
So she saved Peeta's life and he healed overnight,
And they went out for food when the sky became light.
Katniss soon heard the canon that announces a kill,
She ran looking for Peeta up over the hill,
But it was Foxface who had taken the nightlock away,
And for that she would not see another day.
They suddenly hear a growl rip through the air,
They both try to run but the do not know where,
So they sprint to the place where the Games first did start,
But Cato then threatened to pierce through Peeta's heart.
The tribute dogs came, and were ready to feed,
But Cato thinks only of his monstrous greed,
So he falls to the ground and is eaten alive,
Not Katniss and Peeta are left in the night.
Now there's two tributes left and only one may come out,
But Peeta is something she cares much about,
So they take out the fruit and are ready to die,
When the capitol voice comes down out of the sky.
They both may live and return to their homes,
They won the Hunger Games that every year come,
But Snow will not forgive how he was proven wrong,
And he'll wait for the next Games to come back along.
22. Confession
You are my midsummer night's dream,
You are my gentle sunlight beam,
You hold my heart with gentle hands,
And when I fall you help me stand.
You wipe away all tears I shed,
You've returned all the blood I've bled,
You're my angel sent down from the sky,
I know our bond will never die.
Maybe we could run away,
And live things that we'd never say,
Just stay with me; Our bond will grow,
No one has time to say no.
Please stay with me for all my life,
Please remove any of my strife,
I always want you in my sight,
For you're my soul, my heart, my light.
You are the fairest in this Earth,
You are my sweetest source of mirth,
One look at you- You stole my heart,
And when you leave, I fall apart.
Each day your gone can feel like years,
When I'm with you, I have no fears,
I really pray and hope you see,
The we're forever meant to be.
You know my joy lies just with you,
With your soft hair and eyes so blue,
I can't imagine you alone,
And still I think you've always known.
You always were my dream to come,
And only me these words are from,
I promise that I'm always there,
I swear to you, I'll always care.
For all the things we did or do
I never ever will feel rue,
I vow that my next words are true-
My love, My life, I do love you.
23. Dreams
I have a dream inside my heart
That never can sit still,
It is the reason I make art,
And run to every thrill.
It's filled with magic, joy, and fear,
And I love every bit,
It's an adventure so severe,
Not many will submit.
I dream it every night and day,
It never leaves my mind,
And yet it feels so far away,
This place that I've designed.
I still am looking to the sky,
And wishing on the stars,
I swear this dream won't pass me by,
It cannot be that far.
If I can dream it, it is true,
It will happen to me,
This wish I always will pursue,
I'll MAKE it meant to be.
Dear fate can not keep me away
From what I do believe,
I know that I will never sway,
I only will achieve.
I'll fight until I make it to
The lands that I desire,
The sunlight with it's golden hue
Will help me to reach higher.
I'll make it, and record my tale,
My story will exist,
The air of life I will inhale,
I always will persist.
Nothing can ever bring me down,
Nothing can make me stop,
My life's words will become renown,
The world I'll be atop.
So take my hand and come with me,
We can and will succeed,
Our dreams will finally be free,
We just need to proceed.
We have to never let it go,
We never can give in,
Soon the entire world will know
Where we have always been.
Now, fight until you reach your dreams,
Write till you inspire,
Travel all the story's streams,
Let go of all the ire.
24. Over The Rainbow
Let me tell you of a place
Where all you dreams come true,
Wipe those tears off of your face,
And look- The sky is blue.
Here you can be anything,
And never have to cry,
You can fly, Or dance, Or sing,
And joy just doesn't die.
Here the trees are always green,
And roses bloom bright red,
Beauty like you've never seen
Out from the Earth is shed.
Sun shines, but it never burns,
And rivers aren't too cold,
Evil tables are not turned,
And no one does grow old.
Tears don't ever leave your eyes,
And scratches never sting,
There is nothing to despise
That this dream-land can bring.
Hearts are never broken here,
For it is all true love,
Pain you never have to fear;
You're guarded by the dove.
This world is not on a map,
You find it in your mind,
You can go there just like that,
So long as you are kind.
All the beauty in this land
Is all the world can show,
Stories here are never bland,
Up over the rainbow.
25. Wish Away
Everybody sometimes falls
Into a dreadful place,
But just listen to my call,
And your dark steps retrace.
You don't have to live in pain,
And you don't need to cry,
You can forget all this vain,
And even learn to fly.
All you need to do is this,
Just listen to my rhyme,
Words will grace you like a kiss,
And it won't take much time.
What you need to do is sleep,
Although that may seem strange,
And your dreams you all must keep;
You soon will feel the change.
Dreaming helps the body heal,
And refreshes your mind,
It fulfills you like a meal,
I pray you soon will find.
Scars here do not look so bold,
And you forget your deeds,
Hearts are big, and never cold,
And no one ever bleeds.
You must WISH to find this land
That's buried in your dreams,
But not one can lend a hand
To help stitch up your seams.
Leaving dark requires hope,
And you can never fail,
Your neck will never feel rope,
You'll live to tell your tale.
Now you go and find some good,
And start a brand new life,
But remember where you stood
Amid your hateful strife.
26. Stories
Sweet creature dying on the floor-
My glimpse of all I dream; adore,
Oh, strong for you was all my love,
I pray that you will rest above.
I must not live inside the past,
Not every dream may live and last,
And all Earth's wishes can't come true,
So some of us must feel the rue.
How fun it was to seek a heart,
But pain to have it torn apart,
And now it's hard to dream again,
But I will fight past all this pain.
I'll find a ship and hoist my sail,
A brand new dream I will avail,
And I will find another light,
I will ensure my life is bright.
Not all your dreams are far away,
You'll find a new one every day,
And even if they sometimes die,
Their promise never was a lie.
Dreams are born when the moon is full,
And they will never grow up dull,
They can be saintly, or dark sin,
They might hold knights, or greedy kin.
Despite the number of dreams lost,
Despite the heavy, painful cost,
There's new ones right around the bend,
There's quite enough to give and lend.
In fact, I have one just for you,
A dream that's wonderful and true,
It contains romance, joy, and guilt;
This story that the sky has built.
This is not just a lie I've made,
This is no simple debt unpaid,
For everybody needs a dream
To light life's path with a bright beam.
Just close your eyes and show the night,
And don't go down without a fight,
I swear your dreams are always there,
And they're all stories- made to share.
27. Who Says?
Who says true love can't be found?
Who says it's just a dream?
Who says you'll fall to the ground,
And life is just a scheme?
Love is found within your heart,
And dreams within your mind,
Life is just a work of art,
But sometimes we are blind.
Humans think the worlds a mess,
And joy just has no chance,
They say that we can't beat stress,
We all are in a trance.
The world is a perfect place,
I know dreams can come true,
We just need to find the grace,
So we can start anew.
Who says wishes are just lies,
And who says we can't win?
Who says we can't reach the skies,
And we're made up of sin?
Even if some days are bad,
Or even months and years,
You don't need to stay this sad,
You do not need more tears.
Wipe your eyes and let this go,
You can forget the pain,
All your dreams God did bestow,
So you may start again.
That's all~
I'll post my poems every week from now on c:
1. Lonely
My heart feels so empty.
My mouth feels so dry.
My eyes won't stop crying.
I do not know why.
I slowly lost hope,
for I let no one in.
The pain that this causes me
may be the worst sin.
You can never escape
from your own deadly mind
when dark thoughts of suicide
keep flitting inside.
If you find a way out
please tell me the way
for I never can find one
with each passing day.
Every word is a blade
that cuts way too deep.
Please give me a heart
and wake me from this sleep.
Every dream is a nightmare
Every step is a fall
and I never can hear
the kind lover's call.
I get lost in myself
all tangled in thought,
you best keep your distance
or you might get caught.
The world just keeps going,
this pain never ending
why cant I find hope
or no fair soul befriending.
Each word that I've spoken
is like each fallen tree,
abandoned, and hurt
or just plain lonely.
2. Halloween Midnight
Scaring children
Dressing up
Eating candy
Throwing up.
Full moon
Shining bright
Watch your back
Or get a fright.
Halloween
Such a scene
Horror movies
Like The Ring.
Scaring friends
And laughing loud
Waking neighbors
(that old cow).
Caring little
In the middle
Of the night
Of fun and fright.
Not a care
Within the air
On Halloween Midnight.
3. Days Pass By
The clock won't stop moving,
My dreams won't stop ending,
The pain keeps returning
With it's breathtaking blows.
My heart won't stop beating,
My eyes won't stop leaking,
My mind won't stop racing
Through the days of regret.
The seasons keep changing,
The stars just keep twinkling,
And others keep living
Without a worry at all.
My eyes are still crying,
My dreams are still dying,
My heart is still bleeding
Into the core of my soul.
The days are still going,
They seem never-ending,
I can't stop myself feeling
Like this will go on forever.
The torture, the agony
The tears deep inside.
The pressure and sadness
I know will not end.
Just close your eyes tight
And forget in the night
And never think again
About the hidden regrets.
You can't lie to yourself
Or hide the truth on a shelf,
For it will always return
And kill you slowly.
4. Trapped
The music flooded through my ears
I couldn't hear through my own tears
Songs of many a thousand years
Can't smother any of my fears.
I knew that I was lost deep inside
And no one would ever hear as I cried
Lord, please, I beg you take me away
Before the sun sinks and it's the end of this day.
I waited for angels, or maybe a demon
To drag me away and tell me that I'm dreaming;
But I knew one would never; or so it was seeming
So maybe I should just forget my own needing.
I know now how far my one small life is slipping
I see now how all of my dreams just keep tripping,
Will I ever escape, I no longer know
My tears really are there, I just don't let them show.
Someday my dead bleeding heart and it's pieces
Will be found in the dirt with unfixable creases,
Who will find it, my goodness, I fear to find out,
But they may treat it well despite all my doubt.
All my thoughts and my fears are filling the page
And not one can free me from this torturous cage,
For the cage is my mind, and it's barely alive,
But if it breaks you can't say that I never did try.
I feel eyes boring in as tears pour from my eyes,
I ignore them, although I know "pain" is no lie
I sit there ignoring the agony inside
I wish I could leave, I wish I could slide.
5. Morning's Glow
The sun is warm
And brightly yellow,
The flowers bloom
A morning hello.
The breeze blows lightly
Through the trees,
Small animals scurry
Alongside the bees.
Dew scatters the grass
Like a lone angel's tears,
The sky's blue is shining
As it has all these years.
Every object is stained
By the calm golden light,
And one must admit
That it's a beautiful sight.
The wind ruffles my hair
As I step into the day,
I breathe it in slowly
And continue on my way.
The river is flowing
With no beat to follow,
But the sound is still music
No matter how hollow.
The air's smell is sweet
And fills me like drink,
I know in this day
My mood cannot sink.
Birds whistle a tune
Much unlike the rest,
For it's a tune of new life
And I think it's the best.
I have learned a knew lesson
And you too may know,
That all this peace and magic
Is a gift of morning's glow.
6. Christmas Eve
Frost sparkles lightly on the trees,
Small plants are chilled by a winter breeze,
Each flake falls lightly to the ground,
Somehow they land without a sound.
The North Star sparkles in the night,
And children sleep with spirits bright,
The wait for morning seems too long,
But the air is filled with angel's song.
Sweet smells of cookies fill all homes,
And not one soul is fully alone,
There's Christmas trees with colored lights,
And festive wrapping is in sight.
Clock is ticking endlessly,
Yet no one thought to turn the key,
The fire's light is shining warm,
Each flicker changes its bright form.
The magic makes my heart alive,
When will the man in red arrive,
The anxious feeling fills my bones,
Then I can hear the jingle bell's tones.
I sprint up from my bed's green covers,
I fly to the window and fling open the shutters,
Snow sting's my face without my care,
For I hear bell songs everywhere.
Nine reindeer fly a bright red sleigh,
The one in front will light the way,
I don't know their names but I do know one thing,
I know the joy that they will bring.
My family sleeps so safe in their beds,
None know what dream path they all tread,
I know when they wake the thing they will see
Is bright paper packages under the tree.
7. Isolated
My house is a prison,
The dark has arisen,
Trapped behind locked doors,
Nothing left to explore.
No life outside this room
Filled with silence and gloom,
No escape finds it's way
To bring light to the gray.
Nothing left to distract
How my life has been cracked,
No way to numb the pain
That I so often contain.
The anger inside me
Makes it impossible to see
Any good in this earth
That so lacks any mirth.
My voice never is heard,
Then my anger is stirred,
I can't show it for fear
Of shedding a tear.
I abandoned myself,
My heart out of reach on a shelf,
I no longer care,
I'm no longer aware.
How long must this life last,
Always trapped behind glass,
Where smiles are nonexistent,
And my mind is so distant.
I don't know who I am,
And I don't give a damn,
I just want this to end,
Not caring who I offend.
8. Secrets
A thing that is not made for sharing,
You will be blessed or cursed for bearing
This tiny object that can't be touched,
You need to keep it safe from much.
Don't speak it aloud to a single soul,
Weather it is a hope or desire or goal,
For once you do it's title is lost,
And do not think it won't come with a cost.
Keep it locked up; all hidden inside,
But don't let it's darkness turn into pride,
For even the dark has a small light hidden,
But to let it shine is so strictly forbidden.
If it starts to haunt your dreams,
Ignore it till you stop your screams,
It will be fine I promise you,
Just ensure that your secrets true.
Once the dark creeps to your mind,
You will find your heart is blind,
You let it take your soul and body,
Now you will lie forever bloody.
You may prove the liars false,
You may lose faith in your own pulse,
Whatever happens just remember this,
You won't let the secret into the abyss.
Think of those who will use it against you,
How your life will go askew,
All will be gone forevermore,
Was this not all you could ask for.
So keep your secret from all others,
Give them nothing more than simple answers,
Whether close or whether far,
Don't forget who they really are.
9. Watch Me Bleed
Would you like to watch me bleed
While you sit on your throne of greed,
While I die here at your feet,
Will you care for the lives that you cheat?
Will you catch me if I fall,
Will you answer if I call,
Will you care if I give you my heart,
Or will you break it and tear me apart?
Can you hear me scream your name,
Can you smother my internal flame,
Do you feel me touch your back,
Or is it just as silent as black?
You have hurt me far too deep,
You have made me lose my sleep,
Now I am dying painfully,
But I will stand with you faithfully.
I am your friend whatever you say,
And for your soul I always pray,
I want you in my life you see,
But I don't think you do agree.
To you I'm just another rock,
Another tick of a plain old clock,
To you I'm nothing worth your care,
But tell me if you see me there.
I still care for you more than ever,
No matter how beautiful or clever,
I love you just for who you are,
To me your always the brightest star.
You may try to hurt me worse,
You may want my life to curse,
I will fight until the end,
Until my heart will finally mend.
I'll be here when you turn around,
I'll be here when you leave your crown,
But I want the old you; the one who cares,
I want the one who not breaks, but repairs...
I want you.
10. Heal
My small heart was broken,
So beyond repair,
My dreams they were dying,
And not one did care.
I lived through it alone,
Not even once being seen,
I took the world on my shoulders,
Slowly losing my sheen.
No ray of sunshine came in
To my own useless life,
Nor did even a flicker
Of anything other than strife.
Try to escape if you will
But I can promise you this;
You will find only chill
From all those you miss.
I have lost all I love,
But I'm starting to see,
Why should I care for them
If they care not for me?
I let them all go
To their own pits in hell,
I just let them all fall,
Into their own spell.
Now I may be alone
And still tears may shed,
But I don't care any longer,
For all my blood has been bled.
This curtain of dark
May now finally reveal
That my life of no love
Is beginning to heal.
11. Impossible
The basilisk gives a deadly hiss,
The spell is broken by true love's kiss,
The evil witch melts to the ground,
The beautiful mermaid can't utter a sound.
The sword slashes through the warlock's chest,
The cowardly knight fights at his best,
None of the good receive any harm,
And as the bad die, so do their charms.
The worlds full of joy and caring for all,
They pick others up whenever they fall,
The love is just to much to hold,
There's nothing black or dark or cold.
This strange new world blows my whole mind,
Why are all of the people kind,
I wonder if it will soon stop,
I'm waiting for my dreams to drop,
This can't be real- It cant be true,
When did the sky become so blue,
I know this all is just an act,
Or maybe my mind isn't quite intact.
These faeries and their wings of light,
The dragons with eyes shining bright,
The lack of pain confuses me,
Why doesn't anyone try to flee.
This is only a crazy dream,
Nothing is as it would seem,
Perhaps this is an overdose,
Or maybe I fell into a dose.
All I know is this isn't real,
My constant hurt I can't now feel,
Soon this will all disappear,
And then I'll see my absent tears.
Look at all these stupid tales,
Leaving all their deadly trails,
I think it will be quite agreeable
That all of this is just impossible.
12. Agony
Cut out my heart
It's your to take,
Just rip it apart
Ease the pain of it's break.
The dark keeps creeping in
And making me bleed,
It tortures me with sin
So that it may feed.
So I give it to you
I want it no longer,
It's piercing me through
And it's just getting stronger.
Tears may drown me today
While I try hard to heal,
For once I may pray
While I try to conceal.
No one may see my pain
Even though it's so large,
I can feel my gore rain
With an agonizing charge.
The acid is in my soul
And not in my words,
My eyes have grown black as coal
And I cannot move forwards.
Where are my friends now
When I need them the most,
Will my mind even allow
To believe they weren't ghosts?
I feel so alone
That I can't even stand,
I guess I should have known
That I can take no one's hand.
Shall I live on or die
I wonder all day,
I don't even want to try
I think I'm too far astray.
My gut aches with grief
Much more strong than before,
And this pain isn't brief
It just continues to pour.
The pills look inviting
The blade sends a smile,
Will I keep fighting
Or try and leave for awhile?
13. Hardened
I don't know where to go from here,
I don't know what to say,
All I want to do is disappear,
I wish to go away.
My hands just tremble with no rest,
My tears have all run dry,
My heart was ripped out of my chest,
I have no more emotions to cry.
The entire world has gone all cold,
The colors all gone gray,
While everything slowly unfolds,
I feel myself decay.
I never want to laugh again,
Or show a single smile,
All I know is hurt and pain,
There's more with every mile.
The people here are all too cruel,
I don't want to hear their lies,
I'm slowly running out of fuel,
And everything I now despise.
I feel the life losing it's sheen,
I'm running low on time,
I see your faces- so unclean,
That's why I write this rhyme.
Though I like not one of you,
I hate myself much more,
I want my words to still be true,
I want to end my war.
I never laugh or even cry,
I no longer show my feelings,
My heartstrings never will untie,
From all of my dealings.
This is my farewell to you,
The world and all you in it,
I never feel a bit of rue,
I must now admit.
The girl you knew is more than dead,
She's never coming back,
She has no more tears to shed,
Now that all is black.
14. Decisions
"The stars will shine tomorrow
If you make it through the day,
There will be an end to all this sorrow,
No matter what they say.
I'll stand right by you through it all
Even as they bring you down,
I'll pick you up whenever you fall,
I know we'll never drown."
When will I believe those words true
When will I ever feel joy,
You told me that we'd start anew
And my life I would enjoy.
You took my life and ran away
You never gave it back,
Now even though I plead and pray
My heart still has a crack.
My tears ran dry a week ago
When I let them all free,
Now no love I'll ever show
Nor will I ever see.
My soul was made of paper
It's no surprise it ripped,
I see my life through vapor
I feel like I have slipped.
These lies you know I don't believe
You don't believe them too,
I'll never leave my heart on my sleeve
I just wish before I knew.
The past will not come back to me
It hurts me more than ever,
That lovely pitch black hanging tree
Is looking very clever.
Maybe I will hold on tight
And feel my body swing,
I'll die right there during the night
Not caring for a thing.
My plan sounds just too easy
Just dying by that tree,
Maybe I will bring a friend
Or even two or three.
I'll bring my little toy giraffe
And a cool glass of water,
The toy will die with me and laugh
The glass will witness my slaughter.
A memory and one last drink
It seems I am prepared,
I'll give myself no time to rethink
I won't let myself get scared.
Maybe I will see you again
Maybe my neck won't break,
I question if I am still sane
Or if I'll ever wake.
Well then we shall see quite soon
If the rope can do it's job,
I'll wait until the fullest moon
And release my final sob.
15. Torment
I hear the quiet voice of death
Whisper as I try to sleep,
I feel the breeze of it's cool breath
Make me want to leave and weep.
He tells me of another place
Where I won't feel pain,
He says it's filled with joy and grace
And I won't be hurt again.
I hear his voice say "Come with me"
My mind begins to race,
I wonder if he has the key
To this happy sunny place.
I close my eyes and shake my head
I do not trust this voice,
I feel my stomach fill with dread
He says "Now make a choice"
I ignore the haunt right next to me
I try to block it out,
Although I know he'll make me free
I just can't shake away my doubt.
Then he begins to sing a song
Still asking me to leave,
He knows I just want to belong
And someone to see me and believe.
This torment is too much
I feel tears start to flow,
My heart he already did touch
Too much he came to know.
I'm willing him to leave me be
I'm screaming for a break,
I tell him that his words hurt me
And I'm not his to take.
This song is burning me all through
I can think straight no longer,
I know the words are too untrue
And they won't make me stronger.
All worlds are filled with hurt and blood
Not even death is an escape,
I'll always be thrown in the mud
This song will always scrape.
Death's lullaby will burn forever
I can't forget the tune,
I will be trapped for never and ever,
I will never become immune.
Don't let the song into your dreams
It will flay your soul,
It will rip apart the seams
That hold together control.
16. Nature's Senses
Don't you hear the rain? It speaks,
As it falls down in gentle sheets,
It whispers quick and hits the ground,
It's song was just a simple sound.
Do you see the stars? They shine,
And capture little dreams of mine,
They keep one's wishes safe and warm,
But vanish at the rise of a storm.
Can you feel the red rose thorn,
Made by the angels for widows to mourn?
It brings a nightmare,but also a kiss,
That shows you what you sorely miss.
Can't you smell the dew drops fall,
As they rest on pine trees; green and tall?
The sweet scent gets into your mind,
And makes you feel like you could shine.
Will you taste the sky so blue,
That keep your soul so sweet and true?
White fluffy clouds just soar across,
They look so beautiful, but lost.
This nature gets into your dreams
And picks at the edge of your bodiless seams,
It frees your imagination- it sings and inspires,
And burns all the torments in bright smokeless fires.
17. Noganiel ((NO-GEN-EEY-ULL))
Noganiel, My dearest queen,
Noganiel, My life and dream,
Noganiel, I rest with you,
Noganiel, I feel no rue.
You said you would keep me from harm,
You saved my soul with a simple charm,
You closed your eyes and blew a kiss,
And sent my mind into the abyss.
I rest my soul into your hands,
I link our hearts with metal bands,
I know our meeting can't be chance,
I feel my love for you enhance.
Come with me; We'll run away,
Come and start a brand new day,
Come and show our love can grow,
No one ever has to know.
Run my love, do not turn back,
Run before the guards attack,
I'll kill them if your blood is shed,
I will not live if you are dead.
Run into the woods of Green,
Do not let yourself be seen,
Soon I will come back for you,
Unless a sword shall pierce me through.
Please don't cry; You will be fine,
Please no tears; The sun will shine,
I love you so with all my heart,
I will not let them tear you apart.
Farewell for now, we'll meet again,
Go into hiding until then,
Go! Go now! Their horses come,
I shall fight until I'm numb.
****
I write this as life slips along,
I write this as my joy, my song,
Do not forget I loved you so,
Do not be overcome by woe.
Live on your life without the pain,
Live without the hurt and vain,
Just close your eyes and hum this tune,
I'll always be with you, for I am the moon.
My magic couldn't win my fight,
My spells were nothing in the night,
But now your safe, and so am I,
Now we no longer have to cry.
So long,
Farewell,
Goodnight,
Until.
18. Gaia
Sweet goddess of all life and birth,
My bringer of all joy and mirth,
I wish that I could hold you close,
You know it is your hand I chose.
Meet me by the church at nine,
Meet me and I'll make you mine,
We'll last until the world comes down,
We'll let it go and leave this town.
Your beauty is beyond compare,
Your eyes so blue and face so fair,
You travel through my dreams at night,
And make it feel like wrong is right.
***
I love him but I cannot say,
I want him but I cannot stay,
I must untruth to save his life,
Although it may cause us both strife.
I'm sorry sir, I don't love you,
And what you spoke I know was true,
Wipe your eyes and try a smile,
I promise we won't be worthwhile.
Your heart will rest in another hand,
You will not sink into the sand,
Such love will come beyond your hope,
But you and I may not elope.
***
I could not touch my Gaia's heart,
She told me that I must depart,
I do not want to live today,
For my life has now gone gray.
I will meet her at the tree,
She will see what's happened to me,
She need not worry anymore,
I do not want to be a chore.
The goddess of life will feel my death,
She'll hear the sound of my last breath,
She will know as my neck breaks,
What her soft heart from me takes.
***
I felt a pain much worse then ever,
I felt my chest's deep insides sever,
I knew at once that he was dead,
I heard his breath inside my head.
I ran away into the trees,
And what I there saw made me freeze,
His neck was hung with lengths of rope,
And it scraped around it's grope.
He had killed himself for me,
He had come right to this tree,
I feel that this is all my fault,
The tree, the rope, and self assault.
I held his body close to mine,
I knew that he was out of time,
I kissed his lips and counted to three,
And the he was a blossom placed on the tree.
Soft white petals counting five,
A flower very much alive,
She cried and named the flower this-
She named her lover Amaryllis.
***
I felt a breath come through my core,
And saw the goddess I adore,
She had tears running down her face,
I wanted to be inside her embrace.
Then I knew what she had done,
I felt the knowledge send a stun,
She had made my life return,
She had lied about her spurn.
Now I knew she loved me back,
She had healed my hearts deep crack,
Now we will never be alone,
If only I had already known.
19. A Heart's Hymn
Your eyes are like a burst of fire,
Your smile fills me with desire,
My care for you is beyond measure,
Your love lives as my greatest treasure.
The thought of you removes my fears,
To see your face dissolves my tears,
Although most times my voice is weak,
I still find joy to hear you speak.
I pray our bond will stay unbroken,
I hope your heart may be my token,
Quite often you venture into my dreams,
And learn that I am more than I seem.
I cannot describe the feeling you bring,
Or the leap in my heart every time that you sing,
I used to watch you from afar,
And still you are the brightest star.
All through the days- both bright and dim,
I strain my thoughts and scribe this hymn,
Yet as I let my mind out pour,
I wish I'd said this all before.
Your words are carefully placed notes,
Each time you speak the sound just floats,
I wish with you I had more time,
So just for you I write this rhyme.
I love you.
20. Mirror
Mirror, Mirror, please enhance
Why I can't even have a chance,
I try so hard yet tears still fall,
Please help me, Mirror on the wall.
My face has some spots here and there,
I have odd eyes and not much hair,
How does this make me less than you-
You know you are not perfect too?
Mirror, Mirror, hold my hand;
Teach me how to proudly stand,
Please tell me what I need to know,
Or somewhere kind that I can go.
I've searched until my soul is raw
For someone who's heart I may thaw,
I failed so much my pride so aches,
I long for help till my heart breaks.
Mirror, why can I not see
What I am on Earth to be?
I'll think until my mind is bleeding,
And my knowledge is no more exceeding.
I feel so useless and alone
Because my light has never shown,
I live inside my spirit's shadow,
And guard my thoughts until tomorrow.
Mirror broken on the floor,
Is to love me such a chore?
Am I a burden and a bore?
Will my soul always be sore?
Does anyone alive adore?
Is this my only stock and store?
Does my life hold something more?
Shall I record all my lore?
Why is my mind such a violent shore?
Was I like this long before?
Answer me...
21. The Girl On Fire
She burns in my heart with a fire so bright,
She'll sing with the birds, but won't give up the fight,
She protects her sister and swallows her pride,
But tells no one that she is hurting inside.
She fought in the Games without losing her breath,
But it shattered her heart at the time of Rue's death,
So she sang her a hymn and the jays sang along,
She found that the deaths in this place were all wrong.
She refuses to be just a piece in the Games,
Her partner (And boy with the bread) feels the same,
She promised Dear Prim she would come out alive,
And so to kill Cato she swears she will strive.
The rules soon were changed, so she searched in mud,
And there she found Peeta with his poisoned blood,
Then they shared their first kiss in a cave in the dark
Out of terrible hope to save Peeta Mallark.
Katniss ventured to save him and was stopped by Clove fast,
But Thresh saved her for he remembered Rue's past,
So she saved Peeta's life and he healed overnight,
And they went out for food when the sky became light.
Katniss soon heard the canon that announces a kill,
She ran looking for Peeta up over the hill,
But it was Foxface who had taken the nightlock away,
And for that she would not see another day.
They suddenly hear a growl rip through the air,
They both try to run but the do not know where,
So they sprint to the place where the Games first did start,
But Cato then threatened to pierce through Peeta's heart.
The tribute dogs came, and were ready to feed,
But Cato thinks only of his monstrous greed,
So he falls to the ground and is eaten alive,
Not Katniss and Peeta are left in the night.
Now there's two tributes left and only one may come out,
But Peeta is something she cares much about,
So they take out the fruit and are ready to die,
When the capitol voice comes down out of the sky.
They both may live and return to their homes,
They won the Hunger Games that every year come,
But Snow will not forgive how he was proven wrong,
And he'll wait for the next Games to come back along.
22. Confession
You are my midsummer night's dream,
You are my gentle sunlight beam,
You hold my heart with gentle hands,
And when I fall you help me stand.
You wipe away all tears I shed,
You've returned all the blood I've bled,
You're my angel sent down from the sky,
I know our bond will never die.
Maybe we could run away,
And live things that we'd never say,
Just stay with me; Our bond will grow,
No one has time to say no.
Please stay with me for all my life,
Please remove any of my strife,
I always want you in my sight,
For you're my soul, my heart, my light.
You are the fairest in this Earth,
You are my sweetest source of mirth,
One look at you- You stole my heart,
And when you leave, I fall apart.
Each day your gone can feel like years,
When I'm with you, I have no fears,
I really pray and hope you see,
The we're forever meant to be.
You know my joy lies just with you,
With your soft hair and eyes so blue,
I can't imagine you alone,
And still I think you've always known.
You always were my dream to come,
And only me these words are from,
I promise that I'm always there,
I swear to you, I'll always care.
For all the things we did or do
I never ever will feel rue,
I vow that my next words are true-
My love, My life, I do love you.
23. Dreams
I have a dream inside my heart
That never can sit still,
It is the reason I make art,
And run to every thrill.
It's filled with magic, joy, and fear,
And I love every bit,
It's an adventure so severe,
Not many will submit.
I dream it every night and day,
It never leaves my mind,
And yet it feels so far away,
This place that I've designed.
I still am looking to the sky,
And wishing on the stars,
I swear this dream won't pass me by,
It cannot be that far.
If I can dream it, it is true,
It will happen to me,
This wish I always will pursue,
I'll MAKE it meant to be.
Dear fate can not keep me away
From what I do believe,
I know that I will never sway,
I only will achieve.
I'll fight until I make it to
The lands that I desire,
The sunlight with it's golden hue
Will help me to reach higher.
I'll make it, and record my tale,
My story will exist,
The air of life I will inhale,
I always will persist.
Nothing can ever bring me down,
Nothing can make me stop,
My life's words will become renown,
The world I'll be atop.
So take my hand and come with me,
We can and will succeed,
Our dreams will finally be free,
We just need to proceed.
We have to never let it go,
We never can give in,
Soon the entire world will know
Where we have always been.
Now, fight until you reach your dreams,
Write till you inspire,
Travel all the story's streams,
Let go of all the ire.
24. Over The Rainbow
Let me tell you of a place
Where all you dreams come true,
Wipe those tears off of your face,
And look- The sky is blue.
Here you can be anything,
And never have to cry,
You can fly, Or dance, Or sing,
And joy just doesn't die.
Here the trees are always green,
And roses bloom bright red,
Beauty like you've never seen
Out from the Earth is shed.
Sun shines, but it never burns,
And rivers aren't too cold,
Evil tables are not turned,
And no one does grow old.
Tears don't ever leave your eyes,
And scratches never sting,
There is nothing to despise
That this dream-land can bring.
Hearts are never broken here,
For it is all true love,
Pain you never have to fear;
You're guarded by the dove.
This world is not on a map,
You find it in your mind,
You can go there just like that,
So long as you are kind.
All the beauty in this land
Is all the world can show,
Stories here are never bland,
Up over the rainbow.
25. Wish Away
Everybody sometimes falls
Into a dreadful place,
But just listen to my call,
And your dark steps retrace.
You don't have to live in pain,
And you don't need to cry,
You can forget all this vain,
And even learn to fly.
All you need to do is this,
Just listen to my rhyme,
Words will grace you like a kiss,
And it won't take much time.
What you need to do is sleep,
Although that may seem strange,
And your dreams you all must keep;
You soon will feel the change.
Dreaming helps the body heal,
And refreshes your mind,
It fulfills you like a meal,
I pray you soon will find.
Scars here do not look so bold,
And you forget your deeds,
Hearts are big, and never cold,
And no one ever bleeds.
You must WISH to find this land
That's buried in your dreams,
But not one can lend a hand
To help stitch up your seams.
Leaving dark requires hope,
And you can never fail,
Your neck will never feel rope,
You'll live to tell your tale.
Now you go and find some good,
And start a brand new life,
But remember where you stood
Amid your hateful strife.
26. Stories
Sweet creature dying on the floor-
My glimpse of all I dream; adore,
Oh, strong for you was all my love,
I pray that you will rest above.
I must not live inside the past,
Not every dream may live and last,
And all Earth's wishes can't come true,
So some of us must feel the rue.
How fun it was to seek a heart,
But pain to have it torn apart,
And now it's hard to dream again,
But I will fight past all this pain.
I'll find a ship and hoist my sail,
A brand new dream I will avail,
And I will find another light,
I will ensure my life is bright.
Not all your dreams are far away,
You'll find a new one every day,
And even if they sometimes die,
Their promise never was a lie.
Dreams are born when the moon is full,
And they will never grow up dull,
They can be saintly, or dark sin,
They might hold knights, or greedy kin.
Despite the number of dreams lost,
Despite the heavy, painful cost,
There's new ones right around the bend,
There's quite enough to give and lend.
In fact, I have one just for you,
A dream that's wonderful and true,
It contains romance, joy, and guilt;
This story that the sky has built.
This is not just a lie I've made,
This is no simple debt unpaid,
For everybody needs a dream
To light life's path with a bright beam.
Just close your eyes and show the night,
And don't go down without a fight,
I swear your dreams are always there,
And they're all stories- made to share.
27. Who Says?
Who says true love can't be found?
Who says it's just a dream?
Who says you'll fall to the ground,
And life is just a scheme?
Love is found within your heart,
And dreams within your mind,
Life is just a work of art,
But sometimes we are blind.
Humans think the worlds a mess,
And joy just has no chance,
They say that we can't beat stress,
We all are in a trance.
The world is a perfect place,
I know dreams can come true,
We just need to find the grace,
So we can start anew.
Who says wishes are just lies,
And who says we can't win?
Who says we can't reach the skies,
And we're made up of sin?
Even if some days are bad,
Or even months and years,
You don't need to stay this sad,
You do not need more tears.
Wipe your eyes and let this go,
You can forget the pain,
All your dreams God did bestow,
So you may start again.
That's all~
