Treacharous road

[BlasphemousHeart]

well here's a few old ones that go together... the Fork series...

1. the Angel

I need your touch
but you're never there to hold
I call you on the phone
yet once again you're not there
I give you all I am capable of
but you never return the favor

Am I just a toy to you?

Do you hear my internal screams
after telling me about your dates?
I realize that I'll never be able to be your man
but please don't tease me
with false sympathy and empty promises

After these long months
I've grown attached and I know
that it will hurt
but if I'm nothing to you
please release me from
these fickle bonds

All I want is a little appreciation
for being your slave
If I'm not worth those few words
those precious seconds
you are not worth this frail plea

I'm tired of your hap-hazard attention
I've tried to prove my worth
but now it's time for you to do the same
prove to me that these chains are true
all I ask is to hear those three sacred words
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'll post the other parts as I find them...

[Destiny]

Good to have your poetry thread up again. :) I remember this one from before; one of my favorites. :D

[BlasphemousHeart]

:) I remember this one from before; one of my favorites. :D

really??? do you get what it's saying? The meaning may change your mind...

[Destiny]

I thought I did, but now you're makin' me think I don't....Ummm...Don't confuse me!! :cry:...I thought it was really sad/haunted, but also kind of sweet the way he's devoted.

[BlasphemousHeart]

Here's an old one that I kinda liked...

In a Perfect World
She'd never cry
Never scream

In a Perfect World
There'd be no Shadow
To cause her any pain
No tears to be shed
By the Firey Goddess

In a Perfect World
She would be loved
By those she has loved

But this not a Perfect World
This monstorous Shadow
does exist, and she does cry

I try to love, but can only
Cause her pain
Leaving me to sit back to cry
And cry again

It's not a Perfect World
But we can try to make it
Better for her
Slash and Drain this
Useless Shadow
and give her a little more
in this Imperfect World

[BlasphemousHeart]

Here's a poor one that I started writing while I was going through my self-destructive period....

Bridges

Love is a harsh journey
Tough on even the strongest man
But for most the rewards are not enough
And many will often fail
It takes a brave soul to rise up again

Once more the Shadow rises
Wounds still bleeding from defeat
Unable to stand living with himself,
With his defeats,
He starts to retreat back
Across the bridge that had once
Taken him to a place where life
Had been bliss

To protect her
To protect himself
He starts to burn the bridge
Behind him only to see
That there was nowhere to head now

Tears pouring and thoughts churning
'Where is love when the bridge is burning?
Where do we go as the bridge is falling?'
He falls into the uncertain river below
Surely to drown if not for her saving grace
Ever forgiving and patient
She carries him back to shore

[BlasphemousHeart]

This is for one of my greatest friends...

When the Sunshine's gone

When I've fallen
you've been there to help me
pick up my pieces
You've been a light in the dark
to guide me through tough times
but now your light has dimmed

I know how you feel
I've shared the same pain
and now, after all you've done
it's time for me to repay you
for all you've gone through
with me and my problems

I will always be here when you cry
and I will always lend an ear
but I will never let you shed a tear
for someone who isn't truely worth it
because you are a friend
that I hold dear

Come, take my hand
your heart may never stop bleeding
but I'll always be here to help you
be happy, my friend
without your shining light
this world grows bleak
but there's always something more to see
so just take a peek.

Dry those tears
I'll help you laugh
just shine like before
I'll always be there
to stop your fall
and I will always
have your back
Sunshine

[BlasphemousHeart]

Oh my Goddess
I know I can be a handful
but please forgive me
even punish me
aslong as you keep me

Beat me
cut me
clip my wings
and chain me
I'm yours
to slaughter

It may seem odd
but I couldn't care less
aslong as I have you
I can face any pain
in this cruel world

Without you my heart
ceaselessly bleeds
no longer able to live
but when I feel you near
I'm nearly immortal

Please never leave me
even if you have to beat me
I'll always smile
with at my side,
so my Firey Goddess,
I am your lowly
Angel to Slaughter

[GoddessWolf]

My biggest concern with your poems is that there is a lack of punctuation in them. It makes it a bit hard as a reader to know where you should pause or where the poem flows from verse to verse.

[Tempest]

Erm, it's kind of creepy. It's very unhealthy to need someone so much that you're perfectly fine with them beating you as long as they don't leave you. I certainly hope this isn't something that you've written about you and your girlfriend. Even if it isn't, it's not thought-provoking. Just creepy.

Yeah, I kinda tried to make it seem a little creepy. It's a bad rewrite from memory of a poem I wrote last year. The original message was simply that she made me feel invincable, but I thought it would fit her personality a little better if I augmented it into a more sadistic version.

[Sile]

Poem reminds me of someone's relationship.
Not to say their's was or is bad... But I don't know.
I feel I connected with it on a different level.

=DD

[BlasphemousHeart]

Here's another older one...

5am
alone in the dark again
mind left pondering
"How is she?"
"Where's my life going?"
"Will anything ever turn around?"
so many thoughts spinning
around in my brain
so many needs become apparent
with a familiar twinge of pain
as the dream fades away
I don't know what to do
all I want is to see her face again
I toss and turn
my mind starts to burn
I need her touch
I need her warmth
I need her now

[BlasphemousHeart]

Here are a few more old ones...

My goddess,
My light,
The angel who saved my life,

With all my heart I defy,
that your love is just a lie

If I may be so bold,
I am your slave to love or scold,
If you find me to be unsatisfactory,
then beat me,
as long as you promise to keep me,

I may not have the strongest fists,
But when needed I offer a passionate kiss

I cannot stand this any longer!
Thou art the one I adore,
What will it take to make you mine forever more?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As would any creature,
we fear that we dont understand,
These fears don't let lie where others sleep,
As does love not let us think.
Love is something no creature will ever understand
As the rose makes bleed the hand of the one love crushed without letting him stand
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you need me I’m right here.
I will defend you.
I may not be your knight in shining armor,
But I will be your Gladiator.
I’m here to listen.
I’m here to comfort.
So, don’t worry.
Sure I’m not the strongest guy,
But what I lack in muscle
I make up for in brains
And compassion.
I will always be ready to come to your aid,
Even if it’s not needed.
When in trouble don’t look for the guy in flashy armor,
Just look for me in the scuffed clothes.
I’m no knight in shining armor,
I’m your Gladiator.

[BlasphemousHeart]

Once I thought
we could be together
and live
happily ever after
now these few short months later
I've started to see the truth

You're moving on
towards a brighter future
out in the land of stars
while I'm trapped here
chained to anchor of failure
slowly dragging me down
into the darkness
out of reach

Before I drown
I must say my last truths
You were my joy
and You eased my pain
I must appollogize for everything

You were there for me
in my time of need
while I faded away
when you needed me
and ever since our slight reunion
the shame ate my from the inside out

Now you are still out of my reach
but I can see that
too late now I'm afraid
blinded by your light
I am no longer
so go and live your dream
while I drown in this shadowed stream

[BlasphemousHeart]

Puppy love
full of wonder and joy
two souls joined forever
or atleast they blindly
seem to believe

While it lasts
they're inseparable
making plans for a future
that deep down
they know will never come
letting it sweep over them
as it comes crashing down

The flame that burned so bright
now grows dim
and the lights seem to fade
as they slowly part ways
forgeting their plans
ignoring empty promises

Some may move on
while others can't understand
that their Puppy love
was never meant to last,
that their love was all in the past

new love comes fast
too fast for some
but only one thing is certain
the puppy love is gone

[BlasphemousHeart]

Bomb has been dropped
tears have been shed
hearts were shaken
but at what true cost?

An akward reunion
of a classic beauty
and a shady troll
leads to utter
loss of control

Truths are shared
reality brought to light
yet no one seems scared
love turned friendship
with a bitter taste left hidden

What ever happened
to bring about this end
will their hearts ever
be joined again?
shaking foundations
for a fresh start
resting on
his shattered heart

[BlasphemousHeart]

Blindly following a whim
a delightful fancy
seems so sweet
perfectly innocent
but what's the true cost?

ignoring the signs
deaf to the words
seeking only what one wants
not what the other does

Dreams are to too big
to chase safely
and someone will be hurt
but he will never see
until he gets blown away

Friends so great
but is that all?
will it be sacrificed
because he wants more?

[BlasphemousHeart]

Hidden in your frozen fortress
you watch as the people stare
at you in the shadows
but in your frozen keep
you don't care
you feel safe and no one dares
to enter your fortifacation

Years pass and you grow colder
your guard is so monstorous
it has you trapped
but you still don't care
you are safe and alone
with the chorus
of echoes in your own head
until suddenly
upon your door someone has rapped

A lone girl pale and innocent
in appearence has entered your frozen halls
an invasion has begun
but it is shrouded by your cold confusion

The ice begins to melt
and your fortress begins to crumble
but you don't care
you are ensnared and caught in her trap
then one night she finally rips
your thawing heart from your chest
and tears it to shreds
leaving you to only stare

Another comes into your frosty ruins
only to laugh
and you are too hurt to care
you just search for the remains

two more arrive to see
what is left of your kingdom
but they are different
they seem to care
but you are too scared
to let them help
hurt, bleeding, and dazed
you just stare

[UNODRAGONE]

I wish you had titles :p I really enjoyed the last piece because of the originality of it. Instead of saying, 'here I sit, hidden from the world', you paint this mural of a castle closed off to all which gives it a bigger appearance and deeper meaning. I do think 'I don't care' was used a bit too repetitively, but all in all well done :D

[BlasphemousHeart]

well, I used it alot on purpose. To show the appathy and confusion...

[BlasphemousHeart]

Looming danger goes unseen
until it is too late
to even hope for an escape

Speeding toward one another
they collide and glance off the other
twisted metal and flying debris
is all they can see

In the smoking wreckage
battered and dazed
they find a boy beggining to weep
for now his treasure
is smeared across the streets

Both are fine
but he cannot shake off
the fear and guilt
for he did not see it
till the oil had spilt

The flash of blue
and body of steel
ripped open
by his vessel

Another little mistake
that left him wishing
he could turn back time
or were laying lifeless
on the pavement

[kathryn]

D: Chael, this is so powerful! It's an awesome poem about a carwreck. I can just get an image in mind of how you must be feeling... >:

[Destiny]

I still can't believe you crashed while on the phone with me and Torren. I was like, "Where'd Chaelikens go?" And then, come to find out, you'd been in a wreck! I was horrified. T_T

This poem is very powerful, like Kat stated, and at first, it actually sounded like a horrible crash where the narrator's woman/man that he/she is in love with was killed, but then I got that it was your car. XD lol ... Or maybe it's not? XP Very nice Chael. :love:

You could work on the grammar and spelling a bit though hon. :) "Beggining" is spelled "Beginning". That's all I saw on that poem though, good job. :)

[BlasphemousHeart]

spelling.... I'll fix that, maybe..... but as to your opinion Des, Kon was like my child up unto the crash.... It was like losing a loved one, glad that got through to the reader

[BlasphemousHeart]

We used to be
best of friends
but now you know
how I really feel
and it seems our friendship
has come to an end

You used to smile
You used to care
and now it seems
that as I profess my love
You just stare

You used to tell me
Every little detail
about your day
Now you just sit
and say nothing,
nothing at all

No smile
No sound
Nothing is there
but your blank facade

Everyday you seem
farther away
as if each word
were a brick
in your wall
keeping me away
and my heart at bay

Each day you grew
cold like stone
and I fear your curse
will repeat itself
against me
forevermore

*~*~*

Welcome to the world
You helped me create
once full of love
but now only hate

The weather here's as pleasant
as a dry summer storm
raining hot tears and blood
upon this savage land
once controlled
by your loving hand

It's survival of the fittest
in this chaotic land
but the meat is sweet
so let's lend you a hand
as you become one of us
slowly driven mad

This is no jungle
nor is it sand
for once we fought
in the palm of your hand
Now that has become
the shape of our land
once so perfect
and worry free
now riddled with holes
to burry me

Now we're done
being fancy free
come to this
our Wonderland
and play with me

(evil laughter)

[Destiny]

I LOVE the first one. Great flow darlin'. :D The second one sounded a bit repetitive, but I still think it was rather good. ^_^ Both kinda had that sad/evilness to it. Very good. :love:

[BlasphemousHeart]

Been locked up far too long
Building towers upon hills
setting them up to watch them fall
line them up and...

Clak
Clak
Clak
Boom

Watching, not stopping
till the last of the many
hit the floor

Yet another day in Her kingdom
Building the empire
deck by deck, floor by floor
taller and wider it grows
yet just as unstable till...

Skif
Skif
Skif
Boom

The empire collapses
and the Queen falls
from her thrown

Days go by
and their world grows
complexities weave within themselves
become beautiful pieces of art
simply laying in wait for my assult
with only the slightest nudge
they fall into chaos...

Clak
Clak
Clak
Boom

One by one they fall
within my web of countless numbers
unable to stop the collapse
and they all fall down

Eternal doninoes awaiting their fate
to build and collapse
weak like a house of cards
hinging on a child's fantasy
