A Beautiful Creation

Beneath the broken, battered sky,
Where the dazzling stars die,
Lies a swamp and a ruby red rose,
And a place not a soul goes.

A dashing beauty hereby lay,
In a frosted swamp, where darkness stays.
This dashing beauty lives and thrives,
As wind around gently sighs.

A place where beauty is found,
In a place where only darkness surrounds.
Surronding the place is a disgusting thing,
A place where there is no winter or spring.

A swamp watches over this rose,
In the place where not a soul goes;
Roses in a swamp is a beautiful creation,
Living such a life deserves admiration.
The ugly swamp still cries out in frustration,
As roses in a swamp is such a beautiful creation.

Knife in My Life

There's a Knife In My Life.
Let me tell you about it;
Many years ago, I wasn't like this.
There was no drama, no trauma... so long ago.

I'm a fighter of the mind
I beat with my heart
And yet, this disease
Tore me apart

Just like cancer, there's an answer
Waiting to be found
But it takes years to destroy it
Before that, you might have fallen on the ground

Before everything, when I was little
With no sickness, no pain
Everything felt alright
Until that moment...

Oh, how I'd try to fight it
That deadly weapon
That causes death, sorrow
And sickness in our minds

It made me cut out my heart
And scar my arms...
To this day, I can't forget
Depression... the knife in my life.

Darkness and decay, echoes and sorrow,
Sucked in and never pulled out
What was I to do, other than
Hold on to that knife?

That knife that almost killed me
The blood loss... the fatigue
My heart shattered...I could
Paint a picture with that deadly brush

To this day, I still have sorrow
Buried deep inside my heart
I have a little more control
Until I cry

Until they tease me again
Until I get hit
Until someone dies
I'll survive a while

These days, that knife burned in hell
And I held on to my true friends, instead
To this day, I'm okay, because...
I finally dropped it. I dropped the...

Knife In My Life.

yes BELOVED you can have that poem.. however you didnt follow the rules.. its a nice poem but you dont have the words "knife in my life" in the last line or first line of your poem, please feel free to change it as long as you ahve it changed by the 21st, if not it wont be judged

sorry :/

Contaminated Love.
by Condescending;Heart.

They laid holding each other closely,
while watching the sunset,
one hand containing a bottle of whiskey,
and the other a cigarette.

They Would scream and yell all day,
But they were deeply in love at night,
As soon as the liquor kicked in,
All would be alright.

Neither of them were faithful,
Nor true to one another,
But when they laid side by side,
They only had each other.

But drunk and stubborn,
The night wouldn't last long,
Every time they tried it this way,
Something would go wrong.

They loved each other so deeply,
But not enough to care,
Their hunny moon life was no more,
and sex became an affair.

Contaminated Love,
Supplyed by a broken heart,
Cheating On One another,
Had picked them both apart.

Contaminated Love,
Made both their dreams come true,
Causing Their Worlds to shatter,
And Make a scene for me and you.

Its not that great... but hope you liked it.

ohwow... this is a great poem.. but ahh i feel like ive said this a million times.. maybe i should make it more clear in the rules but CONDESCENDING HEART you need to have the words "contaminated love" in the first line or last line of the poem.. nut of a stanza... and i loved your poem so please re-enter it before the 21st so you can be judged :)

oh... okay :) thanks...

Heres the edited version. Enjoy!

Casting Spells From left to right,
hiding what they truly felt,
After a relationship had hit the dust,
No new cards were dealt.

Mocking Their Sacred Vows,
And the rules from up above,
they covered their lies with Passion,
to make contaminated love.

can I reserve 'home videos'?

Home videos, home videos
How I despise thee, home videos!
How you make me cringe
with your tempting portal to the past..
Making me wish.
Making me wish.
You and I both know
the consequences of your pretty pictures.
Me as a kid,
my brother, gone off screaming..
(again.)
Man, I miss my childhood...
I can’t stop smiling when I watch you,
rolling through the scenes of my life.
You make my cheeks hurt.
You make my cheeks hurt!
You’re a tricky, tricky thing
my dear foe, the home video,
for you mask reality
with your shield of memories,
making us giddy in our denial.
Home videos, home videos!
Touche, my worthy adversary!

I don't know about ya'll but I enjoyed that one. Its no near as good as most of these.. but they're all so serious! Hope ya'll smiled today

i would like to reserve driving away please

sorry...i can't seem to write the right ending to my poem...please unreserve buried alive...

sorry liquid dreams.. my badd.. i fixed it :P

Driving away

Driving away in the cold of night,
Wishing that we never had that fight

Driving away from your pitch black heart,
Hoping that we never stay this far apart

Driving away from my stone cold fate,
Declaring to everyone it’s me that they hate

Driving away I know I’ll survive,
Even if it feels that from a cliff I must dive

Driving away from all that I know,
Knowing that as a person I’ll finally grow

Driving away, into the sunset,
Now there is nothing left for me to regret

hi Becca, that ok?

yes narcissa.. its great thanks! :)

i guess i can do hitting hard

can i still reserve it plz

can i put hitting so hard instead? im gonna post it like that but if u want me to change i'll be happy to

Hitting Hard

Life always bounces,
Up and down,
Sometimes you want to laugh,
Others you want to drown,

Somethings happen,
That you dont expect,
Like losing a close friend,
You have to ask whats next,

Last week I lost my dad,
He was my hero his name was blaine,
Just thinking about it now,
Brings me sorrow and pain,

He always hated cameras,
Theres no pictures, not a shard,
To even show the resemblance,
Thats why this is hitting so hard

I dont really like this poem too much but if you do...thats awesome :P

its not bad at all.. but um.. you do have to make it hitting hard not hitting so hard.. im sorry.. just because i've already had other people change their poems as well :(

i should have mine in soon!

♥ Ciao

hey so far everybodys poem is great.. i just want to make sure that everyone is still working on their poems.. i cant wait to read some more!

My Chaotic Bliss

I miss the way we used to hug
I miss my stolen kiss
I want things to be back to normal
I miss My Chaotic Bliss

I miss the way you'd hold my hand
Like I was the only one in the world
I miss the feeling of being your only
Of being your baby girl

If I could turn back the hands of time
Believe me baby, I would
I always believed our love had a chance
I always thought we were for good

I miss our late night phone calls
I miss our love-filled chats
I wonder if you miss them too
But I could never ask you that

I miss the time we'd spend
I miss the secrets we planned
I wish I could fix this problem
I want to make you understand

I wish that you could just see
How much I still truly care
How, at all our old spots
Baby, I'm still standing there

I'm not wishing for a miracle
For miracles don't always come true
I'm just wishing for you to be in my arms
I wish it was still me and you

I miss the feeling I would get
When you would wrap your arms around my waist
What an experience, I can't explain
You would make my heart race

I miss your hands; I miss your lips
I miss the place you filled in my heart
I hate this feeling that's there now
Now that we're really apart

I miss your eyes, the way you'd look at me
I miss getting all those notes
I miss owing you a 1,000 kisses
I re-read everything you wrote

I miss listening to our song
Everytime I do, I cry
I can't help it, it's kinda hard
So please don't ask me why

I'm afraid to ask if you miss me
I don't know what you'd say
It's hard to see you in the halls
I miss you more everyday

It's hard to watch you go
I don't wanna say goodbye anymore
There's still something between us
It's just too strong for me to ignore

I miss the love you had for me
I miss the way things used to be
There's just too much about you I miss
I miss you, My Chaotic Bliss

*`*`*`*`
Hope it's okay! =]
It was a lot of fun to write!!

The love I have will never end
And I intend
To make this vow

“Buried Alive”

I feel the weight barring down,
The weight of all you’re hopes,
You’re hope that I will be so great,
Make it through this course of ropes.

You made the gauntlet long and hard,
Nearly impossible to defeat,
A rock wall stretching up to the sky,
And a mine field at my feet.

The water race was twelve leagues long
We foot raced through the desert,
The ground was scorching, the water icy,
And still you added pressure.

This race of life you put me through,
To you is all that matters,
You’re crushing me into the ground,
Leaving fragments, bits, and tatters.

You were not pleased with what I’d done,
You could not let things lie,
You had to add onto my tasks,
To push my till I die.

I succeeded in all else,
but I can take no more,
I can not complete this task,
I’m beaten to the core. .

Sinking deep in to this trap,
This quicksand that you sprang,
The last expected task of yours,
The last step in the game.

I’m so tired of trying so hard,
To fill you’re twisted mold,
I quit, I sink, so far deep down,
Into the earths comforting hold.

The weight on my shoulders became so vast,
That though I tried and tried,
This life that you forced me to live,
Has finally buried me alive.

just wrote it this verry instant. sorry if i'm a bit late. hope i made it in.
