SWEET SACRIFICE PLEASE

SWEET SACRIFICE

Trembling beneath me
on that hospital bed

no fluffy brown hair
caresses your head

No strength seems left
in your frail bones

Horror filled in those
low soft groans

Watching you suffer
is the hardest thing for me to do

So I shall perform
one last duty for you

I will put you out
of your pain and misery

I'm sorry this is
the way its meant to be

I will miss you forever
deep down in my heart

For me this has to be
the hardest part

Wait for me where
the pain doesn't exist

Ending your suffering
i was glad to assist

Wait for me in the place
called paradise

For this was my
sweet sacrifice.

May I please have Breath No More, and Imaginary

Surrender and Taking Over Me please?
thanks :]

Everybody's Fool please

Sweet Surrender.
by AblissfulDREAMER

As I close my tired eyes and struggle to sleep
Uninvited thoughts pierce urgently into my mind
The realization that I'll never touch your perfect face
In no way feel the gentle touch of your finger tips
Only dream of your entrancingly warm embrace

For I can never surrender my yearning love to you
It's firmly locked deep inside my passionate heart
With the single key lost in my throbbing soul
I can't help but wonder what you truly glimpse
When you look deep within my tranquil essence

As I open my weary eyes from exhausted sleep
The cold hard fact of reality quickly penetrates
You will never know your heart belongs to me
And that I belong wrapped in your caring arms
How my endless dreams of us are oh so sweet

The faithful day when I can finally release
All my engaging dreams and my passions
I hope it travels through your glistening eyes
While its slowly enters your innocent soul
That would be my sweet surrender

Evanescence

I guess all particles came together
within single bloody smile, defined-
sketched across moisten parchment,
melting sweetly; vaporizing...

Sometimes
sunrays warm the soul
yet, igniting darkness reflects desires;
Sometimes,
when the time stands still
and the silence whispers alluring lullabies.

Thoughts built up obscure temple,
plunged into twilights of evanescence-
my heart belongs to your crimson words,
to the illusions you spill around, hypnotizing...

I'm suprised so many people have entered already. Lovin the poems to far. <3

Like You

Can I be like you?
So cold,
So calculating,
Dull steal on soft skin.

Mutilation,
Manipulation,
You flow,
Like water through time.

Your niche,
Carved into each moment,
Hoping,
Praying,
For eternity.

There is no forever here,
I can be you,
Never forgetting,
But never looking back.

I will not give you pleasure,
I will not break,
With time,
You,
Your scar,
Shall fade into the void.

Like You please.
I love that song. =]

Bah. i give up on poetry -.-

i cant write a poem, im gonna withdraw

sorry

Breathe No More

I'm writing poetry I never imagined
Expressing emotions I've never known
Perfecting images of the deepest sins
Two bodies never, portrayed alone

Desire ignites deep in their eyes
Trust explodes to a whole new height
Wanting so much more then they can have
Unable to even grasp the other tight

Needing, Imaging, feeling your touch
Sending firework shivers down my spine
Kiss me with passion, kiss me all night
Begging, pleading for our bodies to intertwine

Temptation creates a sense of torture
Words alone causing a fire to burn
Tempted souls, with a distance to vast
Together they learn for each other they yearn

Not a minute before it causes death
Slowly, simply, enters through the door
Changes my world, makes me weak
Sensations released, I can breathe no more

Imaginary

A glance through the meadow
See an angel walk my way
Chase down an image of perfection
Begging, pleading "Wont you stay"

A picture perfect sight
A simple nod and wink
Then the image disintagrates
I'm feeling my heart begin to sink

It was all in my imagination
Snow falling upon her face
She couldn't be real
Moving with flawless grace

I let my mind run wildly away
An imaginary vision in my eyes
You're nothing but a day dream
An image from the skies

May I have Sweet Sacrifice? Thank you :)

The Only One is now open again! ^.^

Ill take The Only One then please

"Like You"

If I ever had a goal in my life it was not to be anything like you
I would rather die, be roped and tied, than live life like you do
Your whole life was a lie, I hope you can't sleep at night
Knowing so many despise the very sight of you

I know you don't care what anybody else thinks
'Cause in your mind your own waste doesn't stink
The words that you say make you sound so smart
But you don't know the difference between business and art

You think the world owes you something
But you never gave anyone a dime
Save for the scars upon the people called family
And mountains of debt on this threshold of lies

Your contempt for the plain and the normal
Because you never quite fit in
Is now your excuse for the conciet and abuse
You inflict on those of your victims

No I don't want to be like you
And I don't like you in the least
Every aspect of who you are
And those aspects you gave to me

Can I have the last "evanescence"?

Tourniquet

Lay those stars at my feet
while I struggle with words
to express satanic desires...
Feel my blood flowing
down your shrunken lungs
bent with tourniquet
sewed over liquid, dancing shadows.

Seep divinity in this diamond glass,
let it touch my heart's strings...
down to the hell and back again,
following road of fractured hues
I've been cursed by summoned oaths,
flied with ravens, ran with wolves.

Lay those stars at my feet-
thy loveless eyes still bleed,
promising... weaving obscurity
within those macabre nights;
Feel my hands enwrapping
around your tourniquet,
around your stitches of frigidity...

The Only One

He was the only one, prisoner of loneliness
- leastways it seemed-
while he watched at flowing days
through the crack of silence's embrace.

Truncation of excitement
which they dragged between them, selfishly,
he waited, losing particles of the shadow
losing mind with every day gone by...
... imposing into tangible cruelty.

Blinded by poignant light of nobody
he touched his nest within dust
still listening to catastrophic instincts-
he was the only one, prisoner of loneliness.

~~Evanescence~~

Mystificate avenues that lie
while ramshackle buildings burn
and vapor replace chocolate cubicles,
then listen to what the silhouettes
on the lizard's shoulders have to say;

hands of time are built with wire;
the meshes of branches can be cursed-
but the melody of pages would erase them, every time,
marshaled by soul's fragrance, it framed versatile face.

The lungs released weeds of freedom
but sometimes, the bird's feathers are simply twisted,
in this town which is unfinished sketch
and my exit's the evanescence-
disappearing beneath serene water's surface.

Can I choose whisper?

Cheers =)

Em xXx

Ooooo a stroke of inspiration! I'll take Imaginary too =)

Cheers again hehe,

Em xXx

Sure. ^.^ Still no one for "Where will you go?" ?? Awww...

Whisper

Whisper my name in the dead of night,
Wrap your arms around me and hold me tight.
Give me your word that you'll never let go,
Kiss me softly and kiss me slow.
Look into my eyes and don't say a word,
Swear you'll never leave me without being heard.
Stroke my hair as I drift off to sleep,
Promise me this is one promise you'll keep.
Keep it safe and keep it true,
And whisper those words; "Honey I love you."

Lose Control

Scream
Or kill your soul
Cry
So you'll feel whole
Never let it go
No worries anymore

Dream
You're living free
Of everything you'll be
Before the day is gone
Who knows what you will see

Drink
Consume the world
Strings raveled
Come unfurled
Poison in the air
Such hatred we can hurl

Touch
What cannot be
Use your mind and you will see
Heaven in your sight
For Hell has ceased to be

Lose control
To free your mind
Eyes wide open
World gone blind

Can i have "where will you go" and "everybodies fool" please?
Thanks.

Yay someone took where will you go. (after I complained, lol)

Imaginary

Though we're miles apart
I still remember clearly
The way my heart beats fast
Whenever you are near me.

That glint in your eye
That freckle on your ear
That way you hold me close
And take away my fear

The way you take my hand in yours
And brush my hair from my face
The tenderness of your touch and
Comfort of your embrace.

Soon I will come back to you
To be together once again
This is just our chapter
Where there falls a little rain.

The taste of your kiss
The warmth of your skin
The beat of your heart
That is hidden within.

That smile on your face
That flick in your hair
Don't worry honey
Soon I'll be there.

But for this little while
Like a pixie or fairy
Your touch and your kiss
Are just imaginary.

Just keeping it at the top. ^.^

***Haunted***

Oh dreary dawns,
of black feathered swans,
painting myself in her kisses
of stygian ruby,
dripping like blood incessantly
unto stars.

All seems motionless in
midnight,
dancing between silver lights;
twilight and frigid,
as cold as lost lover's lips.

Dead,
without lament.
yet never would I sing upon her grave;
with broken lilacs I script an epitaph
meant for angels,
fallen.

Byronic I've ever become,
haunted,
grotesque shades;
from heartache
past and new,
from winter's rueful winds blew,
darkening the skies beyond my doorstep
with somber tears.

Love me not for the man in this stainless glass tomb.

Prayer for the thorn that I am,
apparition
within the bloodstream of love;
I feel the fires from December nights,
remember and regret our bodies (like needle and thread) displayed in the clouds,
oh haunted ever I am,
by your beautiful shadow.

***Apologies for the great length***

That's ok. The longer it is, the more detail I get. ^.^

When does this contest end?

Could i please have SURRENDER
