#15 ~ In Your Eyes

In Your Eyes
I see you and me
I look to the sky
And I just know we could be

I'm just like any other guy
But in my heart I hold the key
The Key that unlocks eternity
So please don't flee

Give me a chance
Look into my eyes
What do you see?
Nothing but romance

Come with me
And you'll see
The never ending Love Story
That I carry deep within

Hear my heart beat
See doves fly
It's no easy feat
But don't you say goodbye

I'm here for good
I love you that much
And I know you do too
Take my Key

And unlock everlasting eternity
Unlock the Love Story
That is to be told
And unlock the begining of a new live

I ask you this
Upon a night so fine
I'm on my knee
And I want you to be mine

Take this ring
As a token of my love
Take this ring
And see what the future shall bring

Are we allowed to post more than one poem?

ADDICTION by dhaval

The weather beaten garden clock betrays some laziness
The once precise hands have now grown rhythm-less

The laced hammock sways beneath the winking stars
And the silver moonlight floods the dale of flowers

But something strikes my heart as I lie in that light
Enveloped in the velvet silence of this queer night

The dancing flame of fire still burns the candle wick
The bottle of cherry wine lies smashed by my drunken kick

The wind is steady; blows strong without a change
But somehow this heart of mine has never felt as strange

But now my thoughts chase each other to victory
And I finally understand the cause of my misery

On this very hammock she used to be in my embrace
I used to kiss her till she fell asleep, exhaling on my face

On this quiescent trail we had patted smiling flowers
Formed imaginary hearts by joining the radiant stars

Between these very hills our winter moons had sunk
We’d break the wine bottles each time we got drunk

The butterflies had blushed upon seeing our first kiss
Laying on the fresh-cut grass, enclosed in a smitten mist

And now I lie, drunk, with wine and memories of two
I hope missing her is not something I must get used to

The air of strangeness transforms to a glacial breath
This new life of loneliness is in fact a living death

The wind puts out the candle, darkness adds to gloom
Even the gusts now bring the rosy scent of her perfume

And as it intoxicates me, my eyes turn to scour
I look around for her, until I realize she is afar

But every time a star falls, this heart of mine believes
And searches for her, once again, amidst the mocking breeze.......

______________________________________

We Believe,
by Emma

My stems and roots dug up,
And snapped to take the pain,
My branches folding out to you,
As I glistened in the rain,

I remember everytime you said,
We are to never part,
I dont ever want to hurt you,
So thats why you're in my heart,

This is no poem of the love,
That he and I had to share,
It isn't about the heartbreak,
And how he didn't care,

Thus it is of friendships,
I had but were to break,
Alike the branches spread for you,
And the hits I were to take,

The stems portray my soul,
And how it was dragged to you,
Drenched in the wind and wet,
If only you ever knew,

The rain is of my tears at night,
I cried curled up to sleep,
The blanket hugging round my waist,
So the tears were left to seep,

But until they came along,
I thought I had it down,
My smile seemed more real,
And hands saved me to drown,

Then one day there was a whisper,
That told me of a night,
When I had 'love' and a new year,
I wasn't the only one to bite,

A friend of course is someone,
Who'd never take that away,
But of course its over now,
For I'm left to rot and fray.

Good Luck, fellow poets/authors whichever tickles your fancy.
~Emma

#14 Blind

My life is a simple open book
if you're talented enough to read
i am quite famous, people know me as a crook
and they call me by my nick name "Greed"

all i wait for is a single chance
but if you dare to allow me once
I'll push you in the world of trance

just for my love, I've learned few life's lessons
"money talks" is my love story's essence

my girl needs more bundles than i could imagine
for she says if i refuse, she'll be hurt & that's a sin

after slogging everyday, sometimes i wonder if i am trapped
and then a mere smell of her skin and i feel so zapped

there has to be some way out of this hell
there has to be someone who could tell
why should i break her precious heart?
why should i break her magical spell

though sometimes i feel so very tired
as if my lady holds the colorful strings
and i am a puppet who has been hired

these crazy feelings just leave me in night
as i take a glimpse of her face
and sleep being assured, everything is alright

i am sure these feelings will die in my mind
may be she don’t love me, but then who cares
ain't love supposed to be blind?

~Evil Deeds (4)~

A relationship bound by the court,
two parents yearning to abort.
One child's postpartum deport,
a life, from the start, out of sorts.

The help of two elders, they sought,
a custody battle, never fought.
Drug addict parents, got caught,
important lessons, never taught.

A baby that was left behind,
consequences of a legal bind.
A lifestyle of a different kind,
viewpoints from a distorted mind.

A family separated by years in time,
a life with a different rhythm and rhyme.
Two people, making up for another's crime,
always living off of their last dime.

A difficult situation from the start,
a unique picture, of an unpopular art.
A family, nearly torn apart,
two grandparents, certainly, off the charts.

An unwanted boy, now full grown,
held together by seams, left un-sewn.
Approaching life with a whole different tone,
hoping, some day, to live life on his own.

~Sean Dohr~

~In The End (20)~

Blood drips from my veins,
like rain from the sky.
Hits the carpet like a waterfall,
sitting here, waiting to die.

I start bleeding profusely,
after one last slit.
My body starts to shiver,
my brain and heart start to quit.

I can feel the blood dripping,
not just on the floor.
It's running down my arm,
can't feel pain anymore.

My eyes close and re-open,
now I can't see.
My body is breaking down,
there is nothing left of me.

I try to stand, but I can't,
and crash down to the floor.
Now, I start to see things,
I've never seen before.

A bright light and a hand,
that is held out toward me.
I think to myself, is it God,
no way, it couldn't be...

...could it?

~Sean Dohr~

Till the End
by ~~Lindsay Woods~~

You are always there,
Through the times that i was scared.
You were there when i needed someone to hold,
You were the person who never told.
When i first met you i thought you were kind,
But now that we are parted, i am blind.
You asked me one night,
To be with you, things would turn out alright,
But as time passed away,
I had something to say.

My grandpa died, and i wanted to tell you,
But valentines day would never come through.
I never got anything that day,
But i knew what you were trying to say.
That night i cried and i was alone,
I didn't call you because i couldn't use the phone.
I was so sad and depressed, i had no where to go,
I lied in my bed and look out my window.
I saw the stars, they twinkled in with light,
And that reminded me of that happy night.
Nobody could make me happier, when i was with you,
Our relationship was wonderful and true,
But that day you broke my heart,
And told me you would rather start,
on another relationship, to just be friends,
and he would be there to the very end.

Three weeks went by,
and he never even said "hi".
I told myself things would never workout,
And now i realized there is no need to shout,
He talked to me at the end of last week,
And he said we need to be friends, and our friendship he did seek.
Ever since then, we have been the best of friends,
And we both realize now, we will be there for each other till the end.

i would pick tyhe evil deeds, but i dun kno how 2 delete other pplz posts.....
~*Who Cares?*~ KEEP EM COMMING PPL!!

Perfect

Straight-cut hair, no split ends
Contact lenses, perfect friends
A curved, thin body, manicured nails
Sure of every step, no desire to fail

Straight A grades (studies every night)
Fragile and cute (doesn't know how to fight)
Neat handwriting (but no creativity)
Striving to be best (gets 4 hours of sleep)

A porcelain doll face (only 2 hours worth of makeup)
Tight, outlining clothing (the perfect sl*t)
Colorful as a candy wrapper (should be, 10 people helped her out)
A wonderful optimism (every day is full of doubt)

She puts up such a lovely facade
And we all love and see the show
But she suffers much deeper
Than anyone knows

Has the perfect parents (from them does she hide)
Looks her very best (cries on the inside)

This girl is screaming and no one hears
No one will stay behind to wipe away her tears
She sits on the toilet seat and pulls out a razor
She starts off at her stomach (nothing can phase her)

One by one, each red drop dries
In a while she starts to cry

She's such an illusion
Causing confusion
When nobody listens
She finds out what she's missin'

And through her teary eyes
She decides to stop trying to deny
The ways in which she lied
It's time to stop her cries

Maybe one day she will see the light
Right now she has to battle in her own fight
Maybe some day she will recover
But for right now she just needs someone to love her

erm...hope mine is qualified.

yeah just rain urs is fine.

Awkward Last Words
------------------------------

Been together for far too long?
Has the colour really gone?
Looking for a better life?
Words, the blackened, bloodstained knife

Can we still be best of friends?
Or is this where our friendship ends?
Wasn't I your 'only one'?
Words, the bullet from the gun

Have you ever really cared?
Don't you feel guilt? Are you not scared?
Was our love completely vain?
Words, immense inner pain

Your conscience does not exist
Never stopped at seconds, came back for thirds
Layed into me with bloody fist
Careless, painful, awkward last words

Peace. [Sole]

We believe...

Love is a feeling to die,
It's a feeling to live one more life.
Love is a feeling to let others live,
But it's never a feeling to kill.

Love is a feeling of fear to get apart,
It's a feeling which join million of hearts.
Love is a feeling which often makes you cry,
It's a feeling which one cannot buy.

Love is a feeling to care more than urself,
It's a feeling of joy, care and help.
Love is a feeling to protect your loved one,
It's a feeling in which hearts are won.

Love is a feeling to hear the silent words,
It's a feeling to ignore the absurds.
Love is a feeling to feel the others pain,
But it's never a feeling just all about gains.

Love is a feeling to wait for someone dear,
Only love is the feeling which brings them near.
Love is a feeling to be together till the end,
Its always a feeling to hold the hand in every trend...

pure heart..u didnt lissen 2 the rules...either put in 1 that has 1 of the titles or delete this!

addiction

I'll cut like a knife
I'll ruin your life
I'll lose all your friends
and I'll win in the end

I'll shoot through your veins
I'll drive you insane
I'll poison your breath
and I'll love you to death

I'll laugh when your up there
and you'll cry when your down
though your screams break the silence

they don't make a sound

11 more 2g ppl!

aww come on ppl im so bored!

12. Perfect

You ask for whats perfect,
but there is no such thing.
What do you think your perfect?
You aren't exactly a king.

You ask for the impossible,
smart, pretty and kind.
You look for it everywhere,
yet nothing you find.

Keep looking,
you will figure its no good.
If you think your going to find something,
boy, you misunderstood.

And the worst thing is,
You care most about beauty.
For us girls to be pretty,
It's not our duty.

Your looking for something that isn't there,
Have you no respect?
You have to realize,
No one is perfect!

~*(8)*~Can I Change Your Mind~*(8)*~

Can I change your mind
About you and me
Because living without you
Would bring misery.

You said "we're only friends"
How can that be?
When I have more love for you
than I have for me?

I know you have a boy
but nothing he could do,
could prove that his love
is stronger than mine for you.

I hope you change your mind
someday you might.
And that you'll feel for me
Like I do for you tonight.

The feelings I feel
when you're around
save me from being
6-feet under ground.

So i'll sit here waiting
for your mind to shift
and for heaven to give me
God's greatest gift.

Can I change your mind
about you and me?
Because I know that
we were ment to be

14. Blind

My heart is blinded from you and your ways
and now I cant get you out of my mind each and everyday.
All I do is think of you and the way that you are,
yet my heart is blinded, not yet ready to go that far.

But I need to open it so I can let you in
because all I want is for you to be more than just my friend.
After all this time, I realized that I have feelings for you inside my heart,
but it wont open, wont tear apart.
I want to tell you how I really feel
but I'm scared that the feelings I have aren't real.
Every time I see you my heart takes over my mind,
so every time you do something, my heart makes my eyes blind.

My heart is just scared of what you think of me
but its so scared that it doesn't even let me see.
One of these days I will open it up and show it to your beauty
but I just hope it is ready to except the way I feel for you, truly.

by Matt AKA guitarplayer152

Come on people, I want to know who wins!

#13 Take me Home

Deep into my soul
Caress my heart
And make me feel loved
Take me home..

Take me home
Into your life

Kiss your soft delicate lips

And I am yours

Take me home..

That I am
The only one for you

I long for the day
That you take me home..

Saying Sorry

Saying sorry can sometimes be tough
People don't say sorry quite enough
Its always hard to admit you were wrong
But it has to happen for people to get along

Everyone has and will make mistakes
Its part of a relationship to give and take
If you love the person that you did wrong
Say your sorry and help yourself belong

Bat Country
by Max Irvine

Bucket of nines on the table, words playing over the reprimand,
He makes his way out on the prayer thats at hand,
Voices of the lost on the train to the isle,
No ladys voice, no womans faulting smile.

All but glitters on the strange country gunner,
He drives it straight, like fake wind from the summer.
Dear lady, can you make haste of water, and earth?
Dear lady, can you rid us of the scare crows mirth?

Miles from fake, but on the edge of reason,
Can you see these childrens treason?
Too many questions, too little surprise,
Quick to the hilt, to catch his demise.

Quiet is now, no scare crows mirth.
The gunner is silent at the bottom of earth.
Children gather at the edge of the mist,
As the angry train shatters its fist.

No longer must this charade go.
Through the wind, and the fire and the first mans snow.
But that bucket of nines has made its last vow,
This charade any longer, I cannot allow

yay 4 more! my foot hurts, lol. 4 poems would make it feel SO much bettr

:( u ppl make me cri
