POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Hi my name is Jose and I've been writting for awhile. You see poetry is my only way I express and let things out. If you read my stuff just be honest, they are really important to me because they are my deepest feelings.
Path
The path we’ve built has hit a dead end,
Now I must turn around and find a new way,
Leave you behind, it’s time for me to break,
I have say goodbye and just drive straight ahead,
And not look back so you won’t be a sight in my eyes,
I’ve been only hurting myself and been weakened by lost time,
The reason is not because I don’t love you anymore, just so you’ll know,
I’ll will always love you from my heart to my soul,
But I got to start accepting the fact I’ve ignore for a long time which is you don’t want me back,
I see that you’re happily in love...

Even if people are around me, No matter where I’m at, I’m still alone,
In the abyss I am; my horizon is to faraway from home,
Discarded by fate that I’m afraid to trust again, as I tremor in fear,
I don’t know if I could take that pain again…. the sorrow and the tears,
Memories that has kept me a prisoner of time,
Illusions that are making my eyes go blind,
My soul is bleeding out, it has been slain,
Fallen and crawling in blood, my heart has an eternal stain,
I’ve shed a river that within me there’s nothing left,
No fountain of youth but a...

Depression
She haunts my every steps that I’m afraid to look back,
I drift through this world with my head is down not up,
As go around I show a smile but it is fake,
But to hide my pain and not show any discomfort, it’s the only way,
I live believing that I am dreaming because of reality I’m afraid,
Every day is a struggle just to stay sane,
My spirit may seem that it is free but yet I’m confined,
Outside I show that it’s all bright but it’s a light I cannot find,
Inside my dark abyss, my heart is a lonely island where my soul lies,
A helpless castaway that...

You're Departure
You’re Departure”
The day you left my life, everything in every way changed,
I was left mystified and found myself deranged,
If you could only see through my eyes the ordeal I went through from your lost,
That I did everything I could to get you back even if my soul was the cost,
My heart began to hurt the minute you walked away,
I started feeling weak inside because you were my strength,
I had no flavor; nothing had meaning,
Everything seemed colorless; I had no feeling,
Without you in my life, I’m only left with half of heart,
Loosing...

Ode to my Shadow
You’re the only one who truly knows everything about me,
You know me better than anyone I know because to you I’ve confessed everything,
You’ve heard my secrets and the lies,
You’ve heard my prayers and my cries,
You’ve seen my sadness and my cage,
You know my loneliness of my every day,
You know my fear for the future and why the past I bear,
You know the reason why the mask I wear,
You know my existence is a scam,
You know the fraud that I am,
You know reason why she left,
You know the reason of my shame,
You know how much I truly loved the...

Hidden
My eyes are exhausted because all they do is cry,
Black tears that do not stop are making me go blind,
Each one that subsides leaves behind a mark on my face,
Each drop has a meaning from a memory left,
Whenever I look into my broken heart all I see is sadness,
A black hole of isolation and nothingness,
My broken heart remains scattered with a story in every piece,
Stained by my souls tears and pain is the beat,
The pain is unbearable that I can feel it pounding my chest,
It’s full of emotions and needs to be drained,
To empty it, death is the only way,...

Lost within
I may always dress in black but doesn’t mean my heart is,
My soul is covered in blood, I’m bleeding from within,
I’m living in the forgotten abyss where no one can hear or see me,
Each painful hour; each dreadful day I’m slowly disintegrating,
I cry in silent behind my secret door,
My tears I hide and my pain I do not show,
You could see the loneliness through my prison eyes,
You could hear my soul crying inside,
To “sigh” is the only way for me to breath,
My heart is slowly stopping and my body is going weak,
I’m lost within myself and where I am I...

If only........
If only we were asked first if we wanted to be born in this life,
If only we have a choice of how we want to die,
If only we could see the future before we fall in love,
If only we can erase our past so we won’t feel the pain of losing someone,
If only we didn’t have a heart so it won’t be broken,
If only we didn’t have a soul so it won’t rotten,
If only we can wash away our sorrow and pain with every tear,
If only we are strong enough to fight away all our fears,
If only we could stay in our dreams and not wake up back to reality,
If only we live in a life...

House of pain
The days are endless and the nights are silent as no one hears me cry,
The tears I shed that roll down my face is actually blood from my crimson eyes,
Broken in the dark is how my soul is every night,
Slowly disappearing, fading out of sight,
My distance’s boundless, I need to vanish with out a trace,
Leave this sinister house that’s drowning me in nothing but pain,
The wind is vicious, it’s really hard to breath,
The tides are grueling, that I’m getting sucked in deep,
The reflection in the mirror changes every day,
A monster is all I see what’s...

Realm of Dreams
When I was child growing up, I found this special place,
My realm of dreams I called it, when my life was innocence,
I put stars all around it and a picture of the moon,
Every time I went there darkness never bloomed,
A gateway to my happiness; a place I felt embraced,
Whenever I cried and felt scared, I always went to my stars and moon because I knew I’ll be safe,
I spent most of my childhood there because I was always free,
I will dream about many things there, I could be me,
I kept this place a secret; I didn’t want anyone to know,
My place where dreams...

Trapped
So much burden inside of me that I try so hard to blind,
But it’s really impossible it keeps on dwelling in my mind,
A power that has possess me and raveled my brain,
The pain that I feel runs through my veins,
Confused and abandon has made me depressed,
They sorrow me with walls of emptiness,
My soul keeps on crying, I’m drowning inside of me,
Suffocating to the point where it’s getting harder to breath,
I yell as loud as I can but no one hears me,
All I hear is my own echo responding back, saying “it’s over; you’ll never ever be free”
I’m trapped I...
