#3 Black Tears

Darker than the unhealing night
Dripping down my torn face
These black tears stain tonight
Falling in a endless pace

They trickle down to my hands
Like a snake they slither about
These tears are of demon sent
Falling to the blackened ground

From the past to the present days
I've held these tears to my eyes
That time to kill, to suffer is today
Today is my time to die

Gothic black tears remain with me
Following as I sleep with death
Drowning in sorrow for eternalty
I wipe them away, and take my last breath

That's great.

#5 China Garden

This china garden,
sweet and small,
yet like a child, fragile,
easily broken.

Beauty lies in the eyes
of the Beholder,
Unless the china garden
walls give the beholder
a new point of view.

A China Garden like this
reminds me of a love lost.
The first so pure,
but in the end broken,
shattered,
gone and torn.

Unrepairable,
thats what it really is,
A long, hard labor,
and the final result
a million little pieces
bent on hurting somebody
else.

Can I reserve 'This Lie' ..I can't write it this second though.. Cause my friends upset.. Yeah.. But I'll do it asap I promise!!

Sure!

This Lie.

All my energy is wasted away,
I'm tired of covering up this lie.
I spend every waking moment of life,
Pretending that I am really okay.

When I feel those tears filling up my eyes,
And there's a throbbing pain in my chest.
I rush to wash my face, Put on a smile,
Another day of wearing my disguise.

Seems like no one has a clue what is wrong,
And they don't want to try and break me down.
They are all fooled by the lies that I tell,
But all the signs have been here all along.

I can't eat or sleep at night anymore,
And I've lost contact with my closest friends.
My mum and I rarely talk nowadays,
Cause we are always in a constant war.

The truth is that I don't want to die now,
But I'm not looking forward to living.
I want to stop living a lie and smile,
But to do that I really don't know how.

Killing fables
by Silhouette, of something unimaginable

Jack and Jill
a pale of water
up the hill
Jill was cute
but Jack thought Mary was hotter
Jack fell down
broke his crown
just before he fell
Jill stabbed him
teach you to look at Mary,
think twice next time.
Jill cries after him
then silently walks away

*you never defined "killing fables" so i took a fable and made it murderous*
ENJOY

A time to Love

There’s a time to love
And a time to hate
There’s a time to kill
And a time to create
There’s a time to lift up
And a time to bring down
There’s a time to smile
And a time to frown
There’s a time to lose
And a time to gain
Love will lead to joy
Hate will lead to pain

There’s a time to love
Such a time does not exist.
It’s a time to be hugged
And a time to be kissed

There’s a time to hate
You know this time
It’s only everyday
They say it’s a crime

There’s a time to love
And a time to hate
There’s always one
To which we can relate.

ya know what -^-»TaLe3e™?! your poems rock!!!!

Untold Story
By:~*Who Cares?*~

Behind every tear, is an untold tale,
Some new and fresh, others old and stale.
Behind each scar, an untold lie,
Another time you wanted to die.

Behind each door slam, an untold story,
Another reason, to say sorry.
Behind each break up, an untold heart break,
With so much pain, and so much ache.

An untold story, lies in everything we do,
I have one right now, and so do you!
So tell your stories, hide no more,
Forget about slamming your bedroom door.

An untold story, might try to escape so hard,
But deep inside it remains in jail, barred.
The one day, your mind can’t take, and explodes,
So tell your untold stories, in little, simple, loads.

Can I reserve Raging Scar?
Ill write it tonight, my internet is freezing and Id hate to be like 1/2 done and it freeze....
Ill write it on word then post it after.

[PygmyPuff]

Ok I did it...I hope it fits.

Raging Scar
I desire my death and all the spirits within,
I strike my fears and all is finished again.
I'm crying again inside my hope.

The lies go out alone without sensitivity,
And while flourishing death spirals in:
I desire my spirits and withdraw my angst;

I'm shocked that you finished without me.
And crying so angry, it left me quite unique.
I'm crying again inside my hope.

She withers from the lies, and death's spirits stoke:
Leave your fear and his lost hope:
I desire my spirits and withdraw my angst;

I finally understand just what you said,
But I desire the old and I endure your name.
I crying I desire you up inside my hope.

I should have created a fear instead;
Your black mascara trace upon my pillow; your scars
Like rose petals thundering through my sewing hands.

may i reserve Demon Light please

#6 Demon Light

The light inside our bodies is always there. it is there so unto us evil cannot ensnare. the light helps us go on, and move past the bad things. it helps us to smile, and to enjoy spring.

however, sometimes that light starts to fade, or simply it justs starts to be remade. it starts going evil and possesing us. it makes us do crazy stuff, makes us want to act tough.

every bad thing we do, we think it's all right. we get a gun and we kill everything that's in sight.we smoke up some crack, and look down a chick's rack. we never even give it a second thought, how this all came to be, and how it's supposed to be fought.

and we think that in the end, everything will be fine. once we die anyway, we'll be in heaven divine. but remember that time when you did all those bad sins? when you cheated all day, so then nobody wins? when you made everyone around you shiver in fright? well now you're in hell, because you let go of your Demon Light.

u all rock my socks

kool ness! eth...
