Poems (34,369)

As I sit in the nothingness of my soul I wonder why
why have my emotions slipped
why is it so hard just to feel
It seems as though my emotions have been forced
I am putting on a false smile to get through my day
I loved you more than anyone ever and you killed my heart
I see you happy without a care
I live in anger I live in pain
Are you human? Do you even care what you have done to me?
I have been left an empty shell of my previous self
I watch the sun go down every night and it reappear every morning and wonder
how the world continued to spin when my world has gone to another
How could you not care? How dare you treat me like this!
I was good to you! You let believe I was what you wanted-what happened
Now you’re gone and it’s like I never existed
How do I move on? How am I supposed to be better without you?
Will you ever come back?
If I don’t believe you will come back to me I don’t know how to live
Please come back soon
I miss my soul

IN THE SHADOWS OF DARKNESS I FOLLOWED,

WALKING SILENTLY INTO THE NIGHT,

A BUTTERFLY FLUTTERED ALONG MY SIDE,

BUT IT'S BEAUTY REMAINED OUT OF SIGHT.

IN THE LAND WAS A FIELD FULL OF FLOWERS

THERE AROMA SEDUCTIVE AND SWEET,

BUT THE BLACK IN THE NIGHT, TOOK AWAY ALL MY SIGHT,

THEY WHERE CRUSHED BY THE STOMP OF MY FEET.

IN THE DISTANCE A VISION OF LIGHT APPEARED,

THEN THE BUTTERFLY FLEW AWAY,

A RIVER OF FEAR I CREATED FROM TEARS

ON THAT NIGHT, IN THE DARK, FAR AWAY.

LET THE RAIN WASH AWAY ALL MY SINS,

AND THE SOUND OF THE WIND DROWN MY SCREAMS

GIVE ME SIGHT, LET ME SEE ,BREAK MY CHAINS, SET ME FREE,

LET THESE NIGHTMARES CONVERT INTO DREAMS.



,

Winds at my back, sun's shining my face. A friend far away had a blessing's filled day. Couple a guys at work a freaky friday. A day of lipped smiles times seven what's a better way. And game of crib an a beer, ha one over slunkline an last peg is mine. Thankful we've another day to share our lives as. . . . . we do! And can!

In one tear that I shed for you

a grain of life spilt out,

The second tear contained some fear,

The third a hollow shout.

The fourth and fifth a bit of hate,

A tear that burned my skin,

the six contained a speck of pain,

The seventh taste like sin.

The eighth tear was intolerable,

The ninth was built on lies.

The tenth was worse than all the rest,

It bled at your goodbye.

too fast too slow round peg square hole L shaped T slot straight line cube'd four nothin fits an still more. Spin it roll yet place's in blank, defrag the mind ya think it'll help. Too the right too the left straight shot too the middle thats it, shit there's a new void again created by moi! The further it gets the quicker it goes, there's a pause button somewhere it's gotta stop for awhile the minds movin mountains ice-capped stand stills~

Self destruction is the minds construction
Gradually building with every heartbeat
Like an internal tornado pulling from inside
Until it brings certain death

Electrodes pulsing through my brain
5000 volts with every beat
Can my body take the anymore of this?
But it seems I’m plugged into the mains
Resilience fights against resistance
Nowhere to turn, no weapons at hand
So I run, I run, I run trying to escape the madness

Take your pills they said, but I know it’s a trick
For the pills are the chains that hold me here
I’m looking for someone you see
Someone dear to me
I lost them many years ago now
But I know they are searching for me
The person I am searching for is me
The real me, the true me
Not the fabricated mess of a man you see before you
And when I find him you will see the real me
A man who is true and with integrity and hope


The lightning strikes once more in my brain
Driving me back down to the floor
Slowly draining at my resolve….or so they think
But I charge myself from the current
Desperate to gain control of my movements
And my bodily functions

Now the pain has stopped and I’m alone once more
It’s quiet and peaceful and I feel at ease
The light slowly begins to fade until total darkness surrounds me
The buzzing in my ears also fades until it is no more
I feel myself falling, falling, falling but I am not afraid
Slowly, I feel my body shutting down
And for these final few moments I find what I have been searching for
I find myself again and we are happy as we entwine
To become one once more……for eternity

Searching for a messiah
But not even one can be found
The holy man is a fake and a liar
So burn the churches to the ground
Many faiths but just one lie
So Infidels unite
There is no great man in the sky
Just a burning light

Religion equals war
As the history books will tell
Religion equals law
As they march us off to jail
I find it impossible to believe
That a god created man
There was no Adam, there was no Eve
And no great master plan
For man created every god
To give our conscience peace
When we leave this earth we’ve trod
Our fears will surely cease
So when you see a man of the cloth
Don’t think of him as kind
For even though his eyes are soft
He’s sure to rob you blind

Keep moving, you’re gonna need an extra charge
It’s soothing, when you’re high on sabotage
Constraints, they are only in your mind
Complaints, gotta leave em all behind
Black boots, trample them into the ground
The mutes, too afraid to make a sound

Stand tall, everybody’s in their place
So small, the minnows of the human race
Go places, and all you will see
Scared faces, as they turn their backs and flee
Be callous, put the weak up against the wall
Use malice, pull the trigger and watch them fall

For you are the new ruler here
And you must rule them with fear
If they won’t obey then put them down
For you are the one who wears the crown
Strike fear into the hearts of man, woman, child
And show them the beast that you brought from the wild
For then they will know if they step out of line
On the flesh of their loved one’s the beast will dine

I want to spend time in the garden with you
To sit and talk until daylight is through
Listen to birdsong from up in the tree
Watch butterflies so graceful and free

Totally relaxed and feeling no stress
Both locked inside of our happiness
Discussing the future and making our plans
And never letting go of each others hands

Watching the bee’s as they pollinate
From flower to flower in their busy state
The flowers are blooming with colours galore
And blossom is falling from the tree to the floor


Watching the sunset and then the moonrise
And seeing the stars when I look in your eyes
A hot cup of coffee to keep out the cold
Listening to each others stories being told

Eventually we will run out of light
So we retire inside for the rest of the night
When I wake my happiness is hard to hide
Because you are still there right by my side.

My breast
it quivers with excitement, with anticipation
of whats to come and what has been
my heart-it flutters
it is never still
beating
beating
beating beating still
where are you my love?
where did you go?
Ive longed for you so
