POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm open to anything and everything you tell me. Im always looking for opinions and deal with negative comments well, I'm not offended easily.
Jacqueline
I wake up each day
Knowing each day
Only brings more pain...
I wake, to my nightmare.
I wonder, what I did?
To deserve it
Each day, a blood red tear
Escapes my wrist
With it leaves my hope
My love, true joy.
Then it's replaced, again.
With new sorrow, new problems.
With a new pain-filled day
I wake; for you.
Knowing each day
Only brings more pain...
I wake, to my nightmare.
I wonder, what I did?
To deserve it
Each day, a blood red tear
Escapes my wrist
With it leaves my hope
My love, true joy.
Then it's replaced, again.
With new sorrow, new problems.
With a new pain-filled day
I wake; for you.

Collapsed
INSANE
I'm sick
Tired
Forever alone
My music is all that breaks the silence
INSANE
The silence that leaves your ears ringing
The only thought is your own
The silence that screams at you
Piercing directly to the marrow in your bones
INSANE
The loneliness indescribable
It leaves the walls and ceiling
To close in
To collapse
So lonely you get this desperation
For any other life but your own
A voice? A phone call?
Demons? Angels?
Anyone but your own
INSANE
Then you're left to...
I'm sick
Tired
Forever alone
My music is all that breaks the silence
INSANE
The silence that leaves your ears ringing
The only thought is your own
The silence that screams at you
Piercing directly to the marrow in your bones
INSANE
The loneliness indescribable
It leaves the walls and ceiling
To close in
To collapse
So lonely you get this desperation
For any other life but your own
A voice? A phone call?
Demons? Angels?
Anyone but your own
INSANE
Then you're left to...

Stone Cold
Their laughs are taunting me
Their joy is my pain
They drink away their sorrow
I cut away my shame
Black is my heart
Red is my blood
I am the shadow
The on from above; Fallen Angel
Your smile is my joy
Your kiss gets me drunk
Your eyes filled with fear
Fallen from above
Black is my heart
Red is my blood
I am invisible
Too all but one
You are my laughter
You are true joy
You're perfection
My Angel
Their joy is my pain
They drink away their sorrow
I cut away my shame
Black is my heart
Red is my blood
I am the shadow
The on from above; Fallen Angel
Your smile is my joy
Your kiss gets me drunk
Your eyes filled with fear
Fallen from above
Black is my heart
Red is my blood
I am invisible
Too all but one
You are my laughter
You are true joy
You're perfection
My Angel

My Angel
I'll sleep alone tonight
Crying, wishing you were by my side
Wanting only to hold you tight
Loving you, my Angel
I'll wake with wondering thoughts
Asking myself, is this love?
Too have you my waking thought, my dreams fulfilled
Loving you, my Angel
I'll "live" with strong regrets
My stitched heart barely breathing
My pulse, barely beating... I keep my life by
Loving you, my Angel
Crying, wishing you were by my side
Wanting only to hold you tight
Loving you, my Angel
I'll wake with wondering thoughts
Asking myself, is this love?
Too have you my waking thought, my dreams fulfilled
Loving you, my Angel
I'll "live" with strong regrets
My stitched heart barely breathing
My pulse, barely beating... I keep my life by
Loving you, my Angel

Broken
Everyone I've ever loved,
Has been tore away from me...
Fate?
Must love my pain...
Spinning,
I sit in a pool of darkness...
Sorrow, no drink can erase.
No blade can cut away.
My own thoughts, eating me to nothing.
All I ask is for a reason.
All I have? Is well deserved.
Why must everything I love
Be tore away from me...
Has been tore away from me...
Fate?
Must love my pain...
Spinning,
I sit in a pool of darkness...
Sorrow, no drink can erase.
No blade can cut away.
My own thoughts, eating me to nothing.
All I ask is for a reason.
All I have? Is well deserved.
Why must everything I love
Be tore away from me...

I Imagine
To lay a kiss on your lips
So gentle and delicate
Is like picking the drops of dew
Off the petals of a rose
I would hold you close
Feel safe; sheltered from he rain
From the storms that grow and surround me
I'd pull you in
Whisper sweet nothings
Then ask before gently kissing your neck
I'd look into your eyes
To see a heart made of gold and a soul so pure
You see you are an angel
An angel to me
You make each day the best
Each laugh the longest
Each tear the saddest
And my life worth living
...

Drops of Sorrow
As time is ticking by
There's blood that still I cry
I wish then wonder why it is that
I still want you
Your heart was made of gold
You left then life went dull
Yet I can't imagine all the reasoning for desire
I tried to hard to please you
Still it's not enough
All of it's okay
You're the one at loss
We only wanted love
We search for it
Desire it
Live or it
I lived for you
So when that dark day comes
When you're all alone
I hope you regret
The moment you lost me
There's blood that still I cry
I wish then wonder why it is that
I still want you
Your heart was made of gold
You left then life went dull
Yet I can't imagine all the reasoning for desire
I tried to hard to please you
Still it's not enough
All of it's okay
You're the one at loss
We only wanted love
We search for it
Desire it
Live or it
I lived for you
So when that dark day comes
When you're all alone
I hope you regret
The moment you lost me

Pieces
Words scratch at my throat
Screeching; like nails on a chalk board
Every time I'm asked "What's wrong?"
My emotions
Rising and falling as waves would
Clashing while a storm grows and surrounds me
My friends? Gone.
They were never really there
My thoughts rise
Clouding up like dirt after trucks speed bye
My comfort with living?
It's like a missing child
Lost & confused
Even my mental standards are low
You build me up, make me confident
Like a crowd cheering on their idolized rock star...

Games
I cried myself to sleep last night
I guess you never really cared
I cried myself to sleep last night
I thought that you were there
I dreamed that I was useful
I was actually loved
I dreamed that I was useful
Then I almost left the earth
Your image was my friend
That's the way it seemed
Your image was my friend
Now I'm left in one big dream
Life is one big dream
We play it as we go
Life is one big game
That I will never know
I guess that's what I get for playing...

Gone forever...
My hot melted tears are like drops of acid
Falling from the sky
For every one that lands
It kills me far inside
I loose my my mind
My thoughts, my soul
It all fades away
As I enter the gates of desertion
I have nothing left to live for
I'm just full of emotions
As I slowly fade out
Knowing nothings going to miss me
Then the road ends
The last tear falls
My last breath escapes
Now I'm gone forever...<3

Forgotten
I died only 2 minutes ago
The living are still calling me
Still grieving
I'm not in heaven
Nor in hell
I fall between the lines
I second guess my death
Watching people huddle around my dead and lifeless body
As I leave them behind
I wonder if it was worth it
I realize what I've done
I tell of all confessions; I reveal the secrets by the ton
I feel relived; they feel pain
I feel bad; because they drain
Because I left them, or didn't take them with me
It's not to late
Do I go home
Or leave
Towards...

Dancing with Darkness
I hear wind whisper through
The delicate leaves
Threatening to take their lives...
To watch the blue never ending sky
Fall to shatter into millions of pieces
Killing all hope of happiness...
I feel the delicate red petals of a rose
Then it falls and the short nimble thorns burn
As they push their way into my heart, just as love does...
Then I go back
To that giant hill in my mind
To try and keep climbing
But it's just too steep...
So I'll lay in my head
Ignore the world,
And wonder, why am I still alive?
The delicate leaves
Threatening to take their lives...
To watch the blue never ending sky
Fall to shatter into millions of pieces
Killing all hope of happiness...
I feel the delicate red petals of a rose
Then it falls and the short nimble thorns burn
As they push their way into my heart, just as love does...
Then I go back
To that giant hill in my mind
To try and keep climbing
But it's just too steep...
So I'll lay in my head
Ignore the world,
And wonder, why am I still alive?
