Moral Anaesthesia

We were always barred behind
each other's private walls;
with miles of air and oceanic mass,
words unspoken behind bullet-proof glass.
Helpless and stuck in a mere illusion,
a fleeting moment past much too soon;
the promise of God to a fool,
beauty too pure to ever be true.

I bite my lip as
I kiss you goodbye,
try to look away when
my love flies by.

I bite my lip and
repeat the old lie,
try to look away 'cause
boys
don't
cry.

Tonight you tore down all dreams
built with white lies and deceit.
Where I once stood comfortably numb,
I weep and rot deaf, blind and dumb;
Feast in misery like cheap red wine,
the easiest substitute for the truth.
Moral anaesthesia, morphine for the soul -
the price you pay, for losing control.

I bite my lip as
I kiss you goodbye,
try to look away when
my love flies by.

I bite my lip and
repeat the old lie,
try to look away 'cause
boys
don't
cry.

[*mer*]

this is really old. its kind of a song i made up but never finished

theres somebody, out there for me,
just let me open, my eyes to see.
all the beauty that u possess,
all my feelings i have to express.

my inspirations come from ur beauty,
no words can explain, just what u are.
ur so appealing, both inside and out,
thats why im feelin u without any doubt.

girl u got me, straight to my heart,
girl i felt u, right from the start.
u intrigued me, with ur lifestyle,
i get so ecstatic, wenever you'd smile.

how did u ever, get to my weakness,
something about you, ur just so amazing.
all about you, about your uniqueness,
got me feeling, feeling amazing.

all this time, ill be waiting for you,
ill keep on waiting, if this feeling's true.
my only prayer, is for you to be glad,
ill wipe the tears, wenever ur sad.

[fiji_kid]

i really love this part

I bite my lip as
I kiss you goodbye,
try to look away when
my love flies by.

[angel-roh]

wow all u guys have such a wonderful poem!! hehe hmm... i used to write poems good...hehe but i cant express it no more... the only thing i can do is write stories...fantasies haha^o^

[melface]

i posted one of mine before.. it got lost somewhere... i'll go look for it..
this was the first one i ever wrote... it's confusing to some people... but hey, i understand what i'm saying.
found it:

Why do you choke me so?
kill me already I can't hold onto your mocking pain...
watch me suck on your open wounds...
devouring all your dreams along with your heart with what it feels...
I'll stare at you while you search into your eyes...
you touch your hand...
amazing how you do it with just one...
and I make an attempt to wipe away your tears...
but I cant...
because they'll stay forever...
until I wipe away my own...
and at that moment yours will disappear...
and I'll shatter you with my fist and then all of our past will be gone....
I'll shed one tear...
and you wont even exist while it's there....
I'll dry it away...
and move on.

SAD POEM
God saw you gettng tired
and a cure was not to be;
So he put his arms around you,
and whispered " come to me."

With tearful eyes we watched you,
and saw you pass away:

Although we loved you dearly,
we could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands at rest;

God broke our hearts to prove to us,
he only takes the best.

I wish to fade
Into the blue sky
Where I know
A place to fly
To disappear
In thin air
fukc this world
It's not fair
It's great to fly
Having fun
Releasing the fear
which I have done
The breeze to feel
No more thinking
To know im safe
No more of that picking
The sky so bright
Fly to the sun
And fly back
I hope I won
I hope to appear one day
to my favorite place
Wondering if anyone cares
If thats the case
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow;
I am the diamond glints on the snow.
I am the sunlight on the ripened grain;
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circle flight.
I am the sunlight that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die.

[PinoyOtaku]

Title: Alone...

Alone...
That is what I am,
No one else can seem to understand
This forsaken life I live.
My yearning for what has been
Has destroyed me slowly
And now I live a charade of a life coldly...

Alone...
None of my friends can see
The crushed soul within me.
As of now I have no one
To turn to, all I can do is just run.
There is nothing I can do but fall
Into the abyss, far from everyone's call.

But wait...
I have no friends
Isolation is what I have been sent.
For that I have no one to turn to
Nowhere to console, no where to soothe.

For I am alone...

[mystical]

hrm..i wanna try

I'll be your guardian angel
Watching over from above
I'll be the listener
Silent as a dove
I'll be the special person
Who helps your dreams come true
And i'll be the person
Who always says
"I'm always here for you"
So when you need a helping hand
Or feel your dreams are wrong
I'll be the musician by your side
To sing you back your song
Nothing in this world could
Mean more to me then you
And as long as we're both alive
I'll be here to see you through.

[*instantmusic*]

cruelty of life or death

help me he said
and i went to rescue him
i pulled him from death

help me i said
but he let go and left me
he took my last breath

twas he or i
the sacrafice was mine
i die

[*CJ1*]

Wow. You people are good writers. I rhyme things, but they hardly qualify as poems... The last thing I wrote was about a cow

[*Nina*Renee*]

aww, i love poems!!! These are good as gold!!!

[pbear]

[',Apr 29 2004, 8:23 PM] I bite my lip and
repeat the old lie,
try to look away 'cause
boys
don't
cry.

I like this part; boys aren't supposed to cry, and that's why it's heartbreaking to see one do so.

My poetry sucks. There's some posted on my xanga, I think. It's all pointless ramblings in poem form.
Yes, I spit out prose like that.

[AzN_AssAul'][']

hey, u guys are good. these are great but i like linkin's poem is my fave. we share the same style i guess!

[AzN_AssAul'][']

Sorry for double post
Here's another poem I wrote...

Return to Power


For too long I have lived in shadow,
Ignored, forgotten and obsolete,
But now I stalk the path again,
Life for me is complete.

I am the hunter once again,
Back from the abyss,
Hidden from the ways of old,
Ah ignorance is total bliss.

Who knows the way of life?
Who understands it all?
I am the wandering the wolf,
And I answer to one call.

The call of the flesh,
The call of the boy,
The call of the hunt,
All fill me with joy.

But oft I wonder
Is this my fate?
To forever hunt?
Or is it not too late?

I have learnt from my mistakes
And my life in exile,
But now the wolf has returned,
And everything is worthwhile.

[F_L_I_P]

Why am I crying?
Why am I lost?
Why did I stop?
Please tell me
When will I grow up?
How long can I stay a child?
Where have I come running from?
Where am I running to?

I had no place to live. I couldn't find one.
I don't know if I could have any hope for the future.

They always said I was a strong child.
They praised me, saying "you must be strong to not cry."
I didn't want those words at all.
So I pretended not to understand.

Why are you laughing?
Why are you by my side?
Why are you leaving me?
Please tell me.
When did you become strong?
Since when have you felt weakness?
How long must you wait
for the day you understand to come?

The sun is rising. I must go soon.
I can't stay in the same place forever.

You will someday be betrayed by your trust in people.
I thought it was the same as being rejected.
At the time I didn't have that kind of strength.
I definitely knew too much.

They always said I was a strong child.
They praised me, saying "you must be strong not to cry."
The more people said things like that,
the more even laughing became agony.

I was born alone. I'll go on living alone.
I thought that surely that kind of life is appropriate.

This is by Ayumi

This is by me!

Roses are Red
Money is green
May I stick my finger in between

[InfamousOwen]

Yesterday tears were on my face
Today my anger has taken their place
Tomorrow holds something new
Hopefully its about me and you
But the past will remain
Pain I can't maintain
I can no longer hold on
Now that your love is gone
I can only wish it back
Hope that opposites do attract
Then perhaps my wish will come true
And tomorrow will be better for me and you




Guys and Girls I LOVE feed back...and I dont mean the "Oh wow you are soo good" feedback...((Though it is very very nice )) But any feedback. After all we can't improve what we don't know is wrong

[hybrid]

I lack poor sense of judgement, but I was told by the almighty Kathleen to put up this poem by her because.. I forgot what she's doing but she told me. So.. the feature presentation:


Gasping for bitter-sweet oxygen, I uncontrollably choke
Crimson liquid peruses my apparel; down down it soaks
In an instant, the intruder pierces me once more
My soul slowly escapes my corpse as I collapse to the floor
Life is full of "if only"s, is it not?
I'd be here if only it wasn't myself that I fought

by Kathleen

[tinababy143]

wow..thats powerful..i like it a lot

[*Kathleen*]

Hehe aww thanks, Tina...and thank you, Kim for posting this! Yes...I had a longer version of it, but...I don't like it very much. Hehe.

America, The so-called Beautiful

America the beautiful,
That’s what the history books say
The flag is waved so high
It’s said to hold the key to the future
But how do we get to the future
When we’ve never gotten through the past
Look a little deeper
And you will see,
The back of the slaves that made
This country what it is to be
So much hatred is in those colors,
The red, white, and blue
How do we tell other countries to be colorblind
When we ourselves are blinded by color
We hate to hate
Yet when a person of another color comes around
We must look down upon
I’m sick of this people
We are such hypocrites
Telling others to love
When we are yet to know what love is
America, the beautiful
That saying will someday be fulfilled
When we learn that what comes around goes around
Until we have corrected what we’ve done

BETWEEN THE LINES

Look into my eyes,
read between the lines
and you will see
behind my smile
i softly cry

Between the lines
you will see
I'm not the person
you always believe

My front is happy
my truth is agony
if you actually cared
you would be able to tell

Look at me closely
and you will see,
when you read between the lines
you will believe
I'm not the person I seem to be

[Haruka]

Wow! all your poems are so nice!
I'd like to share a couple of mine, and i'd REALLY appreciate feed back

I don't think they are all that good, i wrote them kind of fast before going to bed

Perfecton

Do you demand perfection from me
From yourself?
Do you even care if I am perfect?
Maybe you just like to see my flaws
Or point them out
Then you look at yourself
No emotion
It’s all fake
Your flaws are covered
By the person you pretend to be
Tell me…
Do you demand perfection
From a flawless person?

Do you demand perfection
From a person with nothing but flaws?
Do you laugh or do you cry
Seeing this lack of perfection?
Doi you even care?
If a flaw is perfect,
Can perfection be a flaw?
No emotion
Nothing hits you
Until you have the perfect flaw
It’s all fake
All your perfection
Is a flaw

~

Happiness

The happiness in your eyes
Fades away with my smile
You kill my warmth
With your piercing eyes
My soul is at your mercy
And your heart dominates mine
I don’t want to die alone
Come with me
For the sake of my happiness
Let me die with you

If you noticed, the first two lines of the last one are in my signature =P

Well, tell me what you think!

Isn't it funny
How CB owns BR when
CB came second?

sing me my song - by melissa (i made it up in math when i was in one of my 'moods)

sing me a song
with your voice like silver
you'll right all my wrongs
with your golden touch
take me along
when you walk by the river
then sing me my song
that i love so much
many a'nights
i wait for the tide
i wait for the light
i wait for my ride
fill me with might
i'm resisting my pride
i've put up a fight
so i can be by your side
now give me the strength
to give you all i can
go longer lengths
let my feet stay on land
bring me a saint
all my enemies banned
the darkness is faint
so lend me your hand
chase away devils
that haunt me in sleep
they've all siezed shovels
they've cut me deep
reprimend rebels
make them all weep
they've thrown little pebbles
while faith i did keep
vengeance, my glory
it was all that i had
my entire story
based on them, who did bad
spent my time mourning
i knew only sad
ignoring the warnings
i saw what i lacked
but you sang me my song
you lay me in sand
you righted my wrongs
monster waves all were banned
you took me along
secured me on land
then you sang me my song
i know i'm safe in your hands

Drops from Above

Stared out through the window
Only 500 eyes blink everywhere
The window of the heavens
That both sides of West Bank share

If I climb up on the wall
And walk from England to the Middle country
Like humpty dumpty
And not fall

I wonder, will Armstrong trace my trail
With his twin stars crossed in thought
Can a lifetime of walking beat a man’s few steps

Can a life of work beat a moment’s praying
Can one soldier’s sacrifice
Buy a cow, a bag of rice
Just one night of peaceful dreaming
Where the papers record news
Is a super budgerigar – dying
No terrorist popping letters

Can one butterfly, effect a world of change
Like a president’s memo, or a joke of man
Threaten world, peace with
its funny how perpetual machines can never be made by man, where as
perpetual winter
can

If I walked the wall
Would I rather they point and look
Or they break into many mes
And not one day but many theys
And not one voice but many hands
Not conformity, mindless and with the flow

Stared out through the open window,
There was a meteor shower
Not of stars falling
But of eyes opening, in a pupae
Ready to ______________________________________

sorry p.p.l. i'm not much of a poet.

[RiddleMeWonders]

Tell me what you guys think about it... and whatever else. I need clarity.

Tuesday, March 09, 2004

Where does my beginning start after it ends?
I'm not angry but I'm not happy.
I am not satisfied but I have no hunger.

I am nothing simply for the nothing's cause.
Laughing at only air, acting if I had a care. Funny misery never came here,
with so much to say but no emotion to justify it.
I'm a nuetral lifeforce with not or too much juice to handle.

I'm a seashell glued to a sandle. I'm a firefly imprisoned by the glow.
I'm hazard to uncertain ones who don't know where to go.
I'm the parasite of the life everyone lives and I give myself way too much credit for things I want to know.

I rave instead of fixing the problem.
What problem do I have with people?
But I'll never understand because I want to know.

I am a water... I am a song....
I am a daughter.. and I may be wrong about many things
But my heart is looking for the right place
and I'm trying to keep my cool
when I see your face

I'm just a shadow of my mind
and I make you worry from time to time
but in all honesty
I don't think you really care.

If you asked me about my world could I tell you the truth dear girl?
I'm just a image of the lies.
Someone you don't recognize without a reminder.

Sheriff pulls up to your house walks to the door knocks heavily
and wakes your spouse
He comes to get you but you just shrug him off...
he says "they can't find her"

You mumble and you yell,
was I really worth the hell,
and I stumble back into the light
too afraid to live or die.

Right now I can't remember
what I felt like last december
but if I felt a little bit better
maybe I could tell you later?

I just want something to hold onto...
Someone I can belong to.
No one knows exactly how hard I havent tried.
No one knows exactly how long I havent kept it all inside.
Why don't I feel better yet?

[franceass]

these are really good ...

[XaZnX07]

and another one

If ther were no words
If there were no ways talk
I would still hear you
If there were no tears
No way to feel inside
I'd still feel for you...

And even if the sun refused to shine
Even if romance ran out of rhyme
You would still have my heart and u would be my sun shine until the very end of time
You're all I need and the only one i need

All of my life
I have been waiting for the right person and now i have found u
You've opened my eyes
And showed me how to love with out having physical contact, unselfishly, and patiently....
I've dreamed of this a thousand times before
But in my dreams I couldn't love you more

just one day i hope u will return the love i have
I will give you my heart my everything
Until the very end of time...
You're all I need and the only one i need
think i am falling in love with u beautiful

[XaZnX07]

I WILL WAIT FOR YOU TO THE VERY END OF TIME IF IT TAKES THAT LONG SO SHALL IT BE AS LONG AS I KNOW IN THE END WE WOULD BE TOGETHER ITS WORTH THE WAIT, ALL I NEED IS YOUR LOVE AND YOUR HEART.

[ryfitaDF]

the following work is one i just created and think is awful, but i hope you all like it. i think it's cute

"something told me"
by Lunchbox

Something tells me
That tonight won’t be the same
Something tells me
That my life is gunna change
Something tells me
I’ll be finding something new
Something tells me…

Something tells me
That my fate would misdirect
Something tells me
That right now is retrospect
Something tells me
I’ll be finding something new
Something tells me
I never thought I would find you

Something told me what to do
Something told me how to be
Something told me where to go
Something showed me how to see

Something tells me
The sun just dims that way
Dusk is warning
Be prepared for something great
Or catastrophic
Have my senses been woken?
I will find the tool
That will make me built or broken

Something told me where to be
Something told me who to know
Something told me to be calm
Something said go with the flow

Something made me so intolerant
Something made me criticize
Something made me speak my words
Something brought you into my eyes
Something made me want to stay
Something made me realize
Something made white out of gray
Someone gave me butterflies

Something tells me
That tonight won’t be the same
Something tells me
That my life is gunna change
Something tells me
I’ll be finding something new
Something tells me…

Something told me where to be
Something told me who to know
Something told me to be calm
Something said go with the flow
Something told me what to do
Something told me how to be
Something told me where to go
Something showed me how to see

[LatinaLady]

wow everyones poems are good!!!


i made it into a metapho sun-->God

Shine for me

Why cant life be this way?
Simple, basic, easy
I want it to be just how the sun shines out in the sky
Were I can just walk by
And be me.
The sun is just shining,
Shining out for me.
Calling me to get out and be free.
