theres this girl.
She lives life everyday as if its her last.
She doesnt know when she will be gone.
all shee knows is she lives for the future.
Forgets the past.
Smiles and walk with her head held high.
She is suffering inside.
She will never have a family.
She will alway cry inside.
Never will she forget what happened.

Shes cryin.
She wants you.
And wants you bad.
To her you only her shadow
You will never be nothing more then that.

She watch's you everday.
Walk past her like shes just another person.
You know her...

fetch
your ties and cuff links
for the fire in the back yard
the sickness is of us
the pavement becomes cracked and
folds inward
appartment and office buildings
become caked with mold
shoes are outgrown and feet
become calaced
food tastes better and is found in
small porportions
trees age quick like us
grow thick and overcome the citys
tall and overshadow the life
the unknown is felt often
to become tense in darkness would
never relax
to observe the beauty would
always mistify
to die would be relieving

Look On The Bright Side

Published on 26th July 2010 4:59am
Written by Rae Louise Jones (Rae_Louise_Jones)

Dead horses in the fields,
Resurrected before my eyes
Sporadic snowstorms
Summoning short-lived excitement,
Computers promising to be hassle-free for the day

A parade in my honour,
They told me,
The sky turning white with agreement
Hundreds of rainbow extroverts dressed in black,
Lining the streets with anticipation

Heavy, angry, rock music
Stomping its way through the people
Uplifting was the darkness,
Bubbles of shadow bursting the balloons,
And leaping from cottage to skyscraper

Talking and stalking,
The normal people...

Carl's Bad Kid

Published on 24th July 2010 6:45am
Written by Branch Isole (voyeuristicpoet)

He entered the courtroom
white as a ghost
Six months of confinement
county jailer his host
The charge was murder
in the first degree
Killed her son they said,
first step of a spree?

Hysteria reigned
that rainy morning
the son now dead
the mother in mourning

He denied the charges
proclaiming he loved her still
She had stood by him
married now, not against her will

Their fate to be decided
by twelve of his peers
Lethal injection one option
or perhaps twenty-five years?

A readied prosecution...

Note to whom ever, My last day alive.

Published on 23rd July 2010 11:00pm
Written by Nik-Forever (emoboi24)

You said I never had to feel alone.
I've heard more promising words.
But I believed you.
Yet I feel so alone.
I give it about 7 months.
You wouldn't even remember my name by then.
You'll never enter my room again.
Because it'll be closed off.
But you know inside.
Is where I lay.
Dead.
You know inside my room is where I took my last beath.
You said I'd always have a reason to stay alive.
You said you'd never leave me without no reason.
Then one day, your no where to be found.
Tell my family this is not their fault. ...

Epiphany

Published on 23rd July 2010 8:28pm
Written by Michael Granger (Sir-Writes-A-lot)

If I ever create a sports drink
That would prevent people from hitting the wall or brink
I think it would be called blind rage
A new level of performance could be reached, the future and next page

Many different flavors for sure
Not too high in price so people would want it all the more
The logo would be a snake
With vicious fangs, quite a design it would make

No caffeine or loads of unwanted stuff
A mixture of vitamins and minerals should be enough
Refreshing to the last drop
Keeping you on the move and never wanting to stop

Different sizes and...

Reality ( And Its Tyrannical Acts)

Published on 22nd July 2010 5:57pm
Written by thEnigma

I knew you since fantasy
Knew you since dreams
I knew you since innocence
And queer little schemes

We walked in Forests
Of play
We swam in Oceans
Of say
We ran from Rules
Of hurt
We sailed in Skies
Of May

I loved you since first
I'll love you in last
First saw you since knowledge
Loved you past gasp

We played in Lines
Of flirt
Subjected to Rules
Of hurt
Inside the Dreams
Of there
Inside the World
Of Earth

Now we are here
And there's a gap
I want our love...

Signatures From Heaven Pt. 4: Victory

Published on 22nd July 2010 1:43pm
Written by GlennMcCrary

The following week Seamus called up Jack
to remind him of the interview that they had
Jack then headed down to the bathroom to freshen up
then put on his suit making sure he was sharp enough
Jack was confident he'd nail this interview hands down
this was the real deal there was no time to mess around
shots of nervousness and excitement sparked up his energy
a moment just to calm down Jack was in desperate need
Jack's heart was pounding like the sound of a stampede
he was very eager to nourish and grow this unborn seed
he arrived for his interview on time right on...

Signatures From Heaven Pt. 3: Upgrade

Published on 22nd July 2010 1:41pm
Written by GlennMcCrary

Jack realized that he needed an upgrade
so he called up Seamus in need of his aid
they then met up to shop for formal wear
purchasing a suit to give his image some flare
Jack was a poet so he wanted to look the part
he wanted to touch all of the people's hearts
with the fireworks exploding off in his art
as his image got sharper so did his writing skills
he was pleased to say that he didn't need pills
Jack's verses take people on emotional rollercoasters
installing adrenaline rushes victory was getting closer
but Jack wasn't doing it for fame or special...

Walking

Published on 21st July 2010 9:53pm
Written by Tess Stoops (forever-for_real)

In front of me is a road
and behind me is a wood
that I know I cannot enter
because I just came from there and it holds no value or meaning to me.
So I walk.
It's a familiar road.
I've walked it before, many times, it's bursting with memories.
So many times my loves, my friends, have trodden this path with me.
And yet I usually journey alone.
They leave me at their stops because mine is always the farthest, the last on the road.
I see the ghosts of my memories dancing in their place.
I always walk alone.
It is dark, I am alone, yet I am not...

Two Steeds

Published on 15th July 2010 6:04pm
Written by Misconducted

Frothing homeland-chesnut mare,
Ablaze-perspiring in the heat
And shimm'ring, Godless desert air
Misses the earth beneath its feet.

Palest palfrey-majesty,
Bedeck't in glimm'ring barding bright
Belies his lord's integrity
With steady-mounting battle fright.

A response to both Adrian Blamires' "Cavalry Miniatures" and "Two Swords". I heartily reccomend you read both.

a date with Angelina Jolie

Published on 13th July 2010 6:46am
Written by anandosen

Chasing the dreams to touch the sky, shaking the roots of feminism;

Happy to shoot for the Vogue, Cosmopolitan and Gia's plagiarism-

All for her superstar Angel, she lived the attitude of lesbianism;

From Philadelphia to New York she sold, her fraternity and parental prism-

The ambitious gal, the ambition gal felt addicted to cocaine and heroinism.

Climbing the hills in Beverly was not tough enough, shredding chastity for mean;

Hallowing for her Tomb Raider, she swallowed her city of sin-

All in her attempts she brewed her...

Christabel Continued

Published on 12th July 2010 6:12pm
Written by Misconducted

O'er the misty moor most wide
Did Bracy, baron's bard then ride,
As, bidden haste by agéd lord,
He sought, 'fore night could fall again,
To reach the closest river-ford
To the foreign town of Tryermaine.

For when the bard had bidden been,
In his breast he'd felt a swell,
Though born of gaze of Geraldine
Or a passion in his lord he'd seen
It was not within him to tell.

No less, he pressed forth dusky road,
As sun's glow from horizon crept
And to the skies the wan stars leapt;
Last vespers turned to night-bound ode.

Small Captains

Published on 12th July 2010 12:37pm
Written by Amera

I watched him float his tiny boat,
upon the lake that day.
That little boy was filled with joy;
and so I watched him play.

It dawned on me how he was free
and lost within a dream.
His little soul was in control
and brimmed with self esteem.

He was aware but did not care,
that he was not alone.
He let me stay and watch him play;
this lady who is grown.

I felt so blessed to be his guest
and join him on his trip.
A traveler and passenger,
upon his tiny ship.

Tail in a Tent

Written by Abracadabra

The rasp
of a great cat's
tongue
woke me
in the jungle

I could smell his
meaty breath
meaty breath
meaty breath

So I rolled
to one side
and continued
to snore

In the morning
a whisker

Its to cope with all you see...
Even when things get too tough...
All our hopes and dreams are rough...
Thats whats ment to make us stronger...
Ment to hold us close for longer...
But thats when you made me leave...
Even you tried to decieve...
But I saw through what you did do...
Your actions made me so so blue...
I no I was a troubled soul...
I wasnt being just a mole...
You didnt have the love I had...
You just sat and got real mad...
If you had of gotten ill...
If you had more problems still......

Signatures From Heaven Pt. 2: Passion

Published on 8th June 2010 11:18pm
Written by GlennMcCrary

Jack decided to accept and embrace this gift
and when in doubt his spirits this gift would lift
sending wind beneath his wings guiding him to heights
that he never ever thought that he would reach in his life
unlocking the cage that he's been trapped in for several months
allowing him to soar free while performing some incredible stunts
exhaling sighs of relief inhaling breaths of fresh and earthly air
blowing away all of his scars and erasing all waves of despair
breaking free of the same old annoying and stressful routine
replacing it with thousands of...

Signatures From Heaven Pt. 1: Discovery

Published on 8th June 2010 11:18pm
Written by GlennMcCrary

Last night's events weighed heavily on Jack's mind
triggering his urges to write more mind blowing lines
discovering a passion from deep within his heart
a passion so pure creating gentle rivers of art
poetry was Jack's brand new drug of choice
a place where all his opinions can be voiced
and it did not matter if it was wrong or right
everything's alright in the glow of Jack's light
the light shined as bright as the stars in the sky
over and far beyond the clouds floating oh so high
casting quite a complex yet magical spell upon Jack
hypnotizing him...

Just a dream

At the end of night I escape
reality into another world
where sky's even brighter and
water more fresher, grass more
greener then the color crayon
digging my hands and feet in it's
rich soft soiled makes makes me
feel royal in my own island I
created in my mind an people
protected from evil in the choose
of dying, this place feels so real
that I finally fought the love of
my life build A castle together with
kids and a beautiful wife, what more
