POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Ok so I got into poetry a few years ago during a depression. I have gotten a lot of inspiration from one of my favorite bands, Rise Against. I am open to criticism, and would love advice on how to make my poems better.
One Last Chance
One last chance
Just one last shot
To show the world
Just what I've got
To prove all wrong
To put up a fight
I'll show for eternity
Just who was right
I won't be beat down
If so I'll stand 'gain
I'll make sure that all know
This won't be my end
Maybe for a while
You won't see my face
But you better believe
You can never replace
I'll go down in history
Whether big or small
No matter what I do
I'll reach out to all
My name will go down
No longer a zero
To those I affect
I'll be known as a hero...

On My Mind
She's on my mind
All of the time
She's my only
Rhythm and rhyme
She's the one
Who makes me sane
The only savior
From my bane
She calm my mind
And makes me fly
Always places
Me up high
And thank god she
Always forgives
For she's the reason
That my life lives
I cannot wait
To with her 'gain
Side by side
With my best friend
I only worry
That she's alright
For times it seems
She's in a fight
I pray that I
May somehow help
And not instead
Make her go yelp
I know I can't...

Fire Burn Brighter
Baby I miss you
I just want to hold
I don't want the fire
Between us grow cold
You're on my mind clearly
I want it that way
I never want leave you
I want you to stay
I tell you I'm sorry
It will be ok
But often it happens
Know not what to say
But know that I love you
And always will care
Believe me my baby
A great thing we share
No matter the feeling
That you feel right now
I'll make it better
Someday, somehow
I'll be by you baby
Always by your side
Love you forever
Not here for a ride

I'd Search for Eternity
I'd search for eternity
Just to find you
Every place high and low
All of my days through
Never wanting to be
Out of your sight
And proclaiming our love
From highest if heights
For you just alone
Make me feel just fine
And it's a great miracle
I can call you mine
But thank you for everything
That you've done thus far
I just can't believe it
In love we so are
A day without you
Is a year without rain
So I live in draught
And am in much pain
But all will be worth it
When I see you again
For reunited...

What Is Reality?
What is reality?
Are we all even real?
What if we all
Believe that we feel?
And what if reality
Is just an escape
For all that we to through
Just escape out fate?
I wonder if really
We dream all the time
Never know sunlight
Or when it's our time to shine
Will we ever know the truth
Or know if it's lie?
Will this code be cracked
Before we die?
What if in trueness
Cruelty is good
And being all holy
Is a sin that all should
Stay way from
No matter the cost
Because when being all holy
Then all...

I'm Not Perfect
I'm sorry I'm not perfect
That I make mistakes
But you shouldn't ridicule
Every wrong that I make
I'm on the verge of tears
And no one can see
I'm pushed through the part
They want me to be
If grades are "too low"
You can point and laugh
"I did better than him"
Well good job done half
If something is missing
It sends all a shock
To everyone else
The boat I have rocked
But I don't want to be perfect
I don't want to be great
I want to run away
And leave all this hate

Falling Forever
Falling forever
Falling behind
The darkness blocks out
The sun that once shined
Everything now
Keeps growing old
Maybe they're signs
That I'm just getting old
This terrible feeling
Pit of my gut
I live in a nice house
That feels like a hut
There is no protection
From all elements
That maybe someone
Would feel deep lament
The light now is fading
Falling from sun
Can you all hear me
Please anyone
The tears will not stop now
From hollow eyes flow
My souls feels so empty

Matching Ring
My love how are you on this fairest day
I think about you oh so constantly
I cannot wait until I get to say
Unto your face as well as get to see
That you my love are the sun of my life
And you mean more than everything to me
For you make all go 'way even my strife
And you my love you do not act just be
I do not wish to live without you now
I will be lonely throughout all of time
For only you can show me what and how
You are the rhythm and I am your rhyme
My love you mean to me the greatest things
And one day I...

Trust
Trust is sonething
We must find
From each other
Us to bind
I know you think not
But truly it is
What I give you
So please don't miss
I need to be with you
Day after day
But I'm afraid I've misused
What I meant to say
So please let me explain
How I truly feel
And let me please tell you
I want this be real
You fill me with life
With breath and with joy
No long I feel
Like I am a toy
You give me reason
You give me hope
So please do forgive me
And please don't say nope
We must find
From each other
Us to bind
I know you think not
But truly it is
What I give you
So please don't miss
I need to be with you
Day after day
But I'm afraid I've misused
What I meant to say
So please let me explain
How I truly feel
And let me please tell you
I want this be real
You fill me with life
With breath and with joy
No long I feel
Like I am a toy
You give me reason
You give me hope
So please do forgive me
And please don't say nope

The End
Always it goes wrong
No matter what I do
Always it goes wrong
When I'm helping you
No matter what I try
It never goes right
No matter what I say
There always is a fight
It seems that I'm useless
Never needed here
If only I could chose this
And just disappear
Now in no one's way
And out of this whole mess
But if I was gone
Would world be any less?
No matter what I do
Always it goes wrong
When I'm helping you
No matter what I try
It never goes right
No matter what I say
There always is a fight
It seems that I'm useless
Never needed here
If only I could chose this
And just disappear
Now in no one's way
And out of this whole mess
But if I was gone
Would world be any less?

Game Over
It's over now
The game is lost
The greenhorns now
Know what is the cost
The veterans are falling
Too much to tell
Tears flowing down face
Or blood curdling yell
It doesn't matter
What happens now on
The greenhorns grow up
The veterans move on
The experience shall stay
With them for all life
In two years come
They'll try to avenge their strife
As for the veterans
Broken and torn
They move on in life
For they too were born
But with a pain that's so heavy
They trip and then fall ...
