Layira's Poems

[Layira]

Well, first off, it's good to be back on the site. I was a little worried there when everything was gone.

Now, I don't write poems a lot, but I thought it be cleaner and easier to have my own thread.

So, to start off my thread I want to post a song.

Mask

Restraints grow weaker,
Losing self-control.
Infection and poison
Eating away my soul.
Corruption is commonplace,
Sweet candied lies.
Revealing the sickness,
The disease inside.

Behind the mask
Is a wicked thing,
Destructive, chaotic
Full of sin.
Behind the mask
of false laughter and joy,
Is a hateful monster
Ready to destroy.

Shattered to pieces,
No sanity remains.
Vindictive, avenging,
All hope has been slain.
Rending, slashing,,
Breaking me apart.
A misguided bullet
Sent straight to my heart.

Behind the mask
Is a wicked thing,
Destructive, chaotic,
Full of suffering.
Behind the mask
Of false laughter and joy,
Is a hateful monster
Beginning to destroy.

No cure to be found,
Nothing can heal me.
Nightmare consume,
They're all that I see.
Falling faster now,
I'm losing the fight.
You cannot deceive me,
I am master of the night.

Okay, next poem! I used it for an english project, hopefully I get a good grade on it. :D


Judgment

The scent of sky upon the breeze,
A glimpse of heavens askew.
Armed with the starsteel blade,
Atop a steed of the cloud’s hue.
The Avenger charges,
Alight with fire of the sinned.
The Avenger challenges,
Golden curls splayed back by the wind.
The Avenger leaps to flight,
As downy feathers stroke the air.
A bright, burning star,
Distant amongst the expanse of despair.

Searching, yearning,
Eyes seek out truth and lies.
The Avenger waits,
Biding time, eternally wise.
Summer days pass unseen,
Winter’s chill cannot reach the Avenger,
He is both future and foreseen.
Neither blind nor gifted with the sight,
The Avenger cannot judge.
Bearing the sword to cut down the blight
Of wicked’s design.

Night settles; elucidation collapses
Fiends begins to rise,
The Avenger falls,
Unable to halt the demise.
Turmoil ensues, chaos reigns;
Amidst the seething mass,
Broken light splinters through,
The sun-shattered glass.
His noble blade bears demon blood,
Darkness will descend.
The crimson dawn blooms,
The Avenger transcends.

Wow. Glad to have you back that's for sure. Both poems are very good, but my favorite is the first. :) It flows amazingly well and, in my opinion, shows great use of wording and rhyming. :D

I have come back from the dead! lol. I don't know really why I was gone so long, but here I am again. So, here's something I wrote in my absence. It seems a bit depressing, which is odd because that's not how I was feeling when I wrote it.

Flightless

The bitter silence of my tell tale heart,
A cold breath from my fragile lips of blue,
Unrequited love that tears me apart.
A single phrase, like a bell, rings too true.
Alone here even as I am not,
There is little to do to hide this scar.
Your love is the remedy I have sought;
But you have gone to a place that’s too far.
So deafening is the silence I hear,
I despise the solemn tears I now shed,
They reveal to me my terrible fears
Of lying alone forever on this bed.
Wings that held me aloft will never know flight
And I am bound flightless to this cold night.

And now, a love poem. *awwww* :)

There's two things in life everyone always wants more of...

Love and Time


No need for words
Laying with you tonight.
Suspended in time
The moment is just right

Every second precious
But slipping away so quick.
How I wish I could stop it
The cruelest of life’s tricks.

I’ll need forever to be satisfied
To have spent enough time with you.
You complete my life;
The music to my tune

Time twists our minds till we forget
The wonder in a first kiss.
And things we used to cherish
Are the little moments we miss.

Your silly little grin,
The brush of your hand on mine.
The rush of joy when our eyes meet,
Your kiss; all lost in time.

Don’t forget to remember
How much I love you.
Even when time ceases to exist,
When our memories turn to dust;
Time may take them away but
There will still be me and you

Watch me attempt my du key poetry

When I feel blue
I remember you
Your warm smile,
Your soft red hair
Your silly brother
Who loved bears

It fills me up with hope
So blue can turn to yellow
Superficial like sunlight
But real like bright white snow

As the sorrow disappears
And the joy fills the air
My heart will remember you
Whenever I feel BLUE



I aam lucky to still have the person it's based on!!!:D
