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.
The Precious Little Time
Seconds to minutes
And minutes to hours
Sleep still escapes me
And I have no power
Insomniatic
Wasting away
The precious little
Time of no day
Tossing and turning
I can't escape
Why is it now
That this is my fate
I miss it dearly
I want it again
I just want this time
Of wakeness to end
And minutes to hours
Sleep still escapes me
And I have no power
Insomniatic
Wasting away
The precious little
Time of no day
Tossing and turning
I can't escape
Why is it now
That this is my fate
I miss it dearly
I want it again
I just want this time
Of wakeness to end

Invisible
Why am I seen
But never heard
And why am I
Always the third
Does anyone care
For how I feel
And I have to know
Is all this real
Right now I feel
Invisible
Crushed and broken
Left in the cold
Just let me out
Of this cruel life
And let me live
Out of the light
I can't go on
Being unseen
But how can I
Break this routine
Right now I feel
Invisible
Crushed and broken
Left in the cold
Just let me out
Of this cruel life
And let me live
Out of the light
When I think...
But never heard
And why am I
Always the third
Does anyone care
For how I feel
And I have to know
Is all this real
Right now I feel
Invisible
Crushed and broken
Left in the cold
Just let me out
Of this cruel life
And let me live
Out of the light
I can't go on

Invisible
Crushed and broken
Left in the cold

Of this cruel life
And let me live
Out of the light

By My Side
As long as you stay here
Day after day
By my side always
And know what to say
Even after
The day of "I do"
I will love you
All of time through
No matter the happening
The circumstance
Nothing could scare me
No consequence
I'll be with you always
As you are with me
And all days I'll tell you
That I love thee
Day after day
By my side always
And know what to say

The day of "I do"

Nothing could scare me

As you are with me
And all days I'll tell you
That I love thee

A Little Concern
A little concern
Every once in a while
A how are you
With every mile
Just check up on me
So I know you still care
Remember it was me
Who caught your stare
Occupied with my
Every single move
You studied and knew me
You believed itd behoove
Well my dear
You are right
It truly has
Made us tight
Nothing will break us
It never could
No emotion or time
Dare it not would
Just show some caring
A question here and there
To show me you love me
And to know you still care
I always will love you...

Fate
Happiness ripped away
Just like that
Once it's done
No turning back
Find it again
Someday I will
But now I need something
This void to fill
I guess it was clear
That this was result
It always has been
So why's it a jolt
Back to reality
From which I have come
Where none sing dance
Joke play or hum
But I know in time
It all will return
The happiness will stay
My stomach will churn
Butterflies of joy
Feelings of peace
All of this pain
At once will cease
By her side
I promise I'll be...

Love
A special bond of trust from two
A friendship lasting through darkest of blues
The care that it takes for one heart to give
Is the fire that makes the other one live
All of the days these hearts intertwine
Through beauty and closeness truly divine
Never could something unruly and crude
Break these apart for it is too shrewd
No object like distance money or time
Could break apart a love that is prime
Sharing the joy with all that they know
Lovers go out and put on a show
By others side two lovers shall be
Happy and careless...

One Wish
Only one wish
Can that be fulfilled?
Give me the strength
Get over this hill
It's been placed for us
A trial of true love
To show its as pure
As a snow white dove
I only want you
To stay in my arms
And let me protect
From all kinds of harm
Until times end
And longer than that
To you I shall always
Tip thee my hat
Treat like a queen
Want little in return
If I stay by your side
Our love always burn
Can that be fulfilled?
Give me the strength
Get over this hill
It's been placed for us
A trial of true love
To show its as pure
As a snow white dove

From all kinds of harm
Until times end
And longer than that
To you I shall always
Tip thee my hat
Treat like a queen
Want little in return
If I stay by your side
Our love always burn

Why I Love Her
Sexy and flirty
Playful and rough
Knows when to hurt
And when to be tough
Speaks her mind always
Means what she says
Always enchanting
Her self she is
Smart and funny
Caring and kind
Ahead of the game
Never behind
She's quick to forgive
And even forget
Do anything
For me she'd let
Easy to love
And be around
Hard to forget
Her voice oh the sound
Up for anything
Different and new
I could never hate her
Seriously could who?
Geeky and gamer
Writer and nerd
Just...

One More Night
Most would say
The end is near
Most would say
Boy you hear
Well listen up
Cause I'm not most
I don't care
About those hosts
We can do this
Make it through
And we can be
Just as who
We always wanted
With each other
To please no one
Not even mother
It'll be hard
The road is rough
But when tough gets goin
The goin gets tough
So listen up
All you in love
Make sure you
Never shove
The one you love
So far away
That they no longer
Care to stay
All you need
Is to make it...

Why
What's going on
This is so sad
This cruel life
I've always had
It can't be fair
It never was
Because of what
It's done to us
It praises the bad
And hates the good
It gives them things
That truly we should
Get in return
For all our hard work
But all that we have
Is pain and hurt
So why does it happen
Why do we fall
Why do we anger
And curse at them all
Where is the justice
Where is the peace
Where is the one
Who can make all this cease
Abandon alone
I always will be
Unless...

Wrong
Something is not right here
Something is very wrong
I just cannot figure out
What does not belong
I always hide my feelings
Time and time again
I need someone to help me
What I need is a friend
I never show myself
I'm always in a cage
I'm in desperate need of help
Just to turn the page
I cannot break this habit
Of cowering in fear
I need to become bolder
And make sure that they hear
I need more time to figure out
What this life is all about
I need more help to truly see
In this life what I can be
Something is very wrong
I just cannot figure out
What does not belong
I always hide my feelings
Time and time again
I need someone to help me
What I need is a friend
I never show myself
I'm always in a cage
I'm in desperate need of help
Just to turn the page
I cannot break this habit
Of cowering in fear
I need to become bolder
And make sure that they hear
I need more time to figure out
What this life is all about
I need more help to truly see
In this life what I can be

Someday
Communications cut off
This is sabotage
I can hardly talk to anyone
While I'm at this lodge
But especially you
My bright and shining star
I truly wonder
Why are we so far?
I can't see you
The way I'd like
Every day
Being in your sight
But soon my dead
I'll be by your side
Holding you close
No more tears cried
Happiness forever
No reason to be sad
In the arms of the one
Whom I cannot stay mad
But until the day
We can talk to no end
I'll stay in your heart
My dearest friend
This is sabotage
I can hardly talk to anyone
While I'm at this lodge
But especially you
My bright and shining star
I truly wonder
Why are we so far?
I can't see you
The way I'd like
Every day
Being in your sight
But soon my dead
I'll be by your side
Holding you close
No more tears cried
Happiness forever
No reason to be sad
In the arms of the one
Whom I cannot stay mad
But until the day
We can talk to no end
I'll stay in your heart
My dearest friend
