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.
A Bright Future Because of a Dark Past
Look to the future
Hide from the past
A miracle I
This long have last
The slightest of things
Still set me off
Musical phrases
The way people scoff
I need some help
To let it all go
Be who I was
And stop this whole show
A joyous child
Never sorrowed
But past events
Gave me a load
Too much to handle
All on my own
So I talked to friends
Over the phone
Wrote poem s and poems
About depression
But never truly
Let anyone in
So now I realize
What I have done
It's...
Hide from the past

My Baby You'll Be
I'll love you forever
I'll like you for always
As long as I'm living
My baby you'll be
Your rock and your shelter
Your guiding light
The one that you think of
All of the night
I will protect you
As known I should
You know I'd be there
If only I could
But once we're together
You'll never be harmed
Always forever
In the other's arms
If I ever were
To live without you
Only god knows
What I would do
For I'll love you forever
I'll like you for always
As long as I'm living
My baby...
I'll like you for always
As long as I'm living
My baby you'll be
Your rock and your shelter
Your guiding light

All of the night
I will protect you
As known I should
You know I'd be there
If only I could
But once we're together
You'll never be harmed
Always forever

I'll like you for always

Tell
If I've done you wrong
Just let me know
If it's your wish
Then I will go
If I worry too much
Please just tell
So we don't
Fight and yell
I want to stay close
To you all times
Even if it means
We commit crimes
I delight in your presence
And love when you're near
But I'm afraid I'm too clingy
And you hate to hear
I'll stay with you
Until the end
Unless to me
Away you send
Whatever your wish
However crazy
Always shall
My command be
You'd stay by my side
If I...
Just let me know
If it's your wish
Then I will go
If I worry too much
Please just tell
So we don't
Fight and yell
I want to stay close
To you all times
Even if it means
We commit crimes
I delight in your presence
And love when you're near
But I'm afraid I'm too clingy
And you hate to hear
I'll stay with you
Until the end
Unless to me

However crazy
Always shall

You'd stay by my side

Leave
Can I leave
Just get away
From all this pain
All of this hate
My life is nothing
Empty and void
I've been living
As a toy
Let me go
To feel no pain
Let me leave
And let it rain
I hate this life
For it's useless
And everything's
Become a mess
I can't go on
Living like this
If I leave
Will I be missed....
Just get away
From all this pain
All of this hate
My life is nothing
Empty and void
I've been living
As a toy
Let me go
To feel no pain
Let me leave
And let it rain
I hate this life
For it's useless
And everything's
Become a mess
I can't go on
Living like this
If I leave
Will I be missed....

Fly
As we live our lives
And the days go by
How many people
See how we lie?
That we just want to live
And be recognized
By the people who know
For what that we cry.
And it's only for them
That we can't be shy
And it's only for them
That we try to fly
And we'll keep flying
'Til evening is nigh
We'll keep on flying
'Til the day that we die.
And the days go by
How many people
See how we lie?
That we just want to live
And be recognized
By the people who know
For what that we cry.
And it's only for them
That we can't be shy
And it's only for them
That we try to fly
And we'll keep flying
'Til evening is nigh
We'll keep on flying
'Til the day that we die.

Help
All the chaos
All the pain
All the confusion
And all the shame
That's put on me
As I live
And all I feel
Is the pain it gives
So help me Lord
To let it go
And leave this life
That was a show
I need a way
That's to escape
I need a away
To rid this hate
Please help me see
What's going on
And let me know
I'm not a pawn
Of this game
My life I think
To know that I
Will swim not sink
Because I need
A solid rock
To get me through
The path i walk
And what I'll do

Stay
Now it seems it's all my fault
'Cause when I always try to halt
No matter what I say or do
I always end up hurting you
It seems I can't do anything right
Can't lose the hurt can't lose the fight
I wanna run away from it all
'Cause I never want again to fall
Even with how close we are
it always feels like we're too far
'Cause even when I try to help
All that come are fights and yelps
Abandon I always will be
No one around no one to see
All the trouble and pain I'm in
So maybe this should be the end
If I'm gone...

Mystery
I don't understand
Who it is you are
The face is familiar
But the name is so far
Away from my memory
I've no clue your name
But you say that you know me
That's your whole claim
Your voice is recognized
Yet I don't know why
Ive never heard it
My whole life
It draws me near
And the look in your eyes
Pulls me to you
No matter how hard I try
I can't get away
I have to know more
What it is about you
That makes me implore
To tell me more
And let me know
Secrets that only ...

My Moonlit World
The wind in my face
The great outdoors
Side by side
Laying on the floor
The stars in the sky
Try to outshine
The eyes of my baby
But are forced to decline
The sounds around me
You by my side
Holding each other
No reason to hide
Only one thing girl
That you need to give
To make my life
A reason to live
Changing my dream
Twisted and swirled
Into a reality
My moonlit world
Hearts are racing
We're wild and free
No one to tell us
How we should be
Hand in hand
Feelings soar
All I...

Please
Baby please talk to me
Tell me what's wrong
What is the problem
You live with for long
I feel that I've
Disturbance become
You hardly now dance
Play sing or hum
If I've done you wrong
Just tell me it's so
So that I may ask
And that I may now know
And justify
What it is I've done
Please dear tell me
What is it hun?
If you'd like me to leave
I'll follow command
If you rather I stay
Tell me your demand
I love you forever
No matter what
But I hate feeling
Like out I am shut
I can't read...

Live Life Now
Live in the moment
Laugh it off later
See how it plays out
You're meant for greater
Things than worry
And menial chores
See what life looks like
Through open doors
Leave all behind
Go dance in the rain
Have a good life
And shrug off the pain
If things go wrong
I'm not too far
I'll be the friend
That sits at a bar
So live for the moment
Have fun for now
You have your whole life
To go have a cow
Just laugh a lot
Staying happy
You're a great friend
Remember be free!!

A Nation of Lies
Suppressing the cries
Muffling the screams
The Land of the Free
What does it mean
The people aren't heard
The children aren't saved
Now the road
To destruction is paved
Spiraling downwards
Losing to fast
The qualms of the nation
That always should last
Equality for all
That's what has been said
But all of these Thoughts
Have been laid to bed
Living by lies
That are told everyday
Now shackled and bound
It's here we must stay
Where none know the truth
But all think we know
And think we must prove...
