POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I use many rhyming schemes. I like using caesuras and im pretty much obsessed with alliteration. I write whenever I feel inspired and I write to clear my mind.
I Dont Know Why
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
Why do I still stay?
When lies are spewed
Left, slowly brewed
To drive me insane daily
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
Why do you push and pull?
Like some raging bull
Ignoring all your feelings
Making me feel so shrewd
Somewhat secluded
I don't know why
I don't know why
I don't know why
Why I am beguiled?
I cannot get enough
Of every look and touch;
Your ember eyes burn in me
...

Loveless
I wanted to love you
But I truly could not love you
Love is pure
Love is sacred
Love is a means to an end
I cannot love someone
Who never thought to love me
Lest love where love was less
my love wasted
on love unrequited
Although I am sad in love
'Love is patient
Love is kind'
But I am Loveless and left behind
I cannot love that which I could not find
I cannot return to what was never mine
I wanted so badly to love you
Loveless is how I saw you
But I truly could not love you
Love is pure
Love is sacred
Love is a means to an end
I cannot love someone
Who never thought to love me
Lest love where love was less
my love wasted
on love unrequited
Although I am sad in love
'Love is patient
Love is kind'
But I am Loveless and left behind
I cannot love that which I could not find
I cannot return to what was never mine
I wanted so badly to love you
Loveless is how I saw you

Insufferable Her and Inseparable Me
Re: Ramblings On Competition
Posted on: 10th September 2012 4:17pm
Her: You're sick
Me: I think I am going to be sick
Her: You're an idiot, I just said that. Why don't you listen to me?
Me: I hate listening to you.
Her: Oh? Oh really? As I said you're an idiot (and you Are going to be sick)
Me: Just shut it for one second? Can't you just be Silent for ONE second?
Her: Don't be silly, of course not. You know better than to ask.
Me: Sigh, I but hoped; there's always hope you know.
Her: Uh.. that would be a 'No'.
There isn't...

Needing you but wanting him
Passion, forbidden from the truth
Crushing on you, what a lie
Needing you, but wanting him
A safety and a pleasure derived deep within
A sickening feeling I cannot suppress
Feels like acid burning my flesh
How does one acquiesce?
When his touch means everything to me
The craving and the desire
It is a poison; I cannot stop it
I am bound to him and I cannot help it
Between you both I cannot win
I need you, but I want him
Crushing on you, what a lie
Needing you, but wanting him
A safety and a pleasure derived deep within
A sickening feeling I cannot suppress
Feels like acid burning my flesh
How does one acquiesce?
When his touch means everything to me
The craving and the desire
It is a poison; I cannot stop it
I am bound to him and I cannot help it
Between you both I cannot win
I need you, but I want him

Myself (Ballad)
When did I do this to Myself?
Why do I hurt you so much?
I cannot control myself,
I lose everything that I touch.
Please save me.. God, from myself.
I am invisible
Because of who you know I am not
Because of what I am inside
I try to reveal myself to let everyone else see
I am not as silent as I am perceived
To you, I am everything
Everything and more
But to me I am nothing than lonely and a bore
I see myself in the mirror, wondering
Why do I cry inside
Only to realise
I am unhappy and freezing as time passes by

Try
The more I try to forget
The more i cannot let go
With thoughts and accusations
That are bound to be foretold
With hidden secrets high and low
Deep feelings; emotions running beyond and below
I try and tell you exactly how i feel
But I always back down still trying to keep it real
You know me, decisions are not my strength
With every bad choice I desperately try to make amends
I try to express what I am trying to say in words
It seems that is the only way that works
Even though I do, I still do not have the courage to ...

I love you
I wanted so simply to tell you
To tell you simply:
I
l
o
v

But the words never even formed on my lips
They refused to come
From the day when I first felt this epic emotion
To this day, still trapped in my cerebrum
...two years ago

A Love Forsaken
He always put himself first
I always feared the worst
No love from the one that mattered
Falling apart and hot-tempered
Defeated by harsh expectations
A decline in health and appearance
Bruised and battered
Scarred and shattered
Losing this mental battle
Changed; ...a love forever tainted
No advice on life's challenges
No guidance given
Kept in the dark, well-hidden
Abused and weakened
Lonely and misguided
Alone and forgotten
Left cold and shaken
Stripped bare; ...a love...

Friction
Friction took me apart
I wanted so much to dissolve
Do not think of me as unruly
I am not an illiberal child
Do not discuss me
You know nothing of my mind
Do not tempt me
Unless it is for your gain
Do not befriend me
Unless your loyalty extends far
Do not lie to me
For that is not what anyone deserves
Do not expect anything less than my honesty
For that is who I am
Do not think you know me
Unpredictable is what I am
You will never forget
You will never for get
I was your friction...

Dreaming
You stared at me with those eyes
(ember, brown and longing)
I was taken in and instantly paralysed
Captivated, heavily sedated and intoxicated by you
Burning..
As the flame you lit,
How do I out this shit?
Finding myself in your every touch and embrace
You gave me more reason to have life
You are all I felt
For when we kissed,
(and more than kissed)
I thought,
"I just might go to Hell for loving you."
For who can be trusted when sin and salvation collides?

Desperation
Being brainwashed with societal fallacies..
In these days without reprieve,
I WANT to WANT everything.
And I HATE,
..so passionately,
..this wicked emotion,
..this forsaken greed.
Did you know..
It’s useless to get to this stage?
Where Hopelessness meets defeat
..of longing Desperation
..of desirous (or is it delirious) Desperation,
..so pungent,
..undulating,
..with serrated breathing.
I more than crave,
..the sunlight,
..the moon,
..the air,...
