Oh my gosh, thank god! i was just going to ask if it could be a song!
thanks!

Red and blue colored the empty street,
As the men in blue entered apartment 403,
The smell of whiskey tainting their nose,
Hidden in a vase with one black rose --

The desolate suite grew quiet and cold,
As one man through a walkie-talkie was told,
To look in the bedroom and he will find,
The remainder of a love she left behind.

Black and white pictures scattered along the floor,
Smiling faces forced to watch such gore,
A trail of blood leading out the window,
Scattered between footprints encased in snow.

Inside a deserted car, there lay a woman,
Wondering where her boy has been,
And in pieces, she fell with grace,
With a handprint imprinted across her face.

But on a card between the roses thorns,
Was a tiny note from one wife terribly scorned,
But between the lines, scribbled in blue;
Were three little words -- 'I love you'.

I'm gonna have to back out. I can't think of a good poem for The Little things...

Sorry...:(

Ciao~

~Because our love is real,
We can be open about how we feel.

We have felt like we have Given Up but have pulled together.
Never give up, giving up is what i say forever.~

Is that good enough for Given Up?

If so can i enter that please?

Thankyou.

Haha. i am listening to them right now! xD

Wow very good racheal...i think i'll have to start reading ur poems...and im not surprised at Jennas amazing work

Keep it up guys!

Reserve the rest and get the outstanding ones in!

Leave Out All The Rest

My heart blindly follows you
Though your flaws stand out.
I know the danger you impose
But push aside all doubt.

Like a moth to the flame
I see the ruin up ahead.
But still I go on the same
Walking straight to my death.

What about you keeps me
Entranced and unaware?
How can one person take away
My cautiousness and care?

I should be on tip toes
Instead I walk the ledge.
One step further to you
Can drop me over the edge.

My heart is painting pictures
Of a perfect life with you.
My mind is saying, "NO!"
Oh, what am I to do?

Why must this be a battle?
Why do I only see your best?
My heart looks for the good
And says, "Leave out all the rest."

I'm hoping I'll awaken
From this nightmare, from this dream.
If I wasn't so in love
Things wouldn't be as they seem.

By: Charisma*

Im sorry, i can't get anything on this one... im gonna have to like un-reserve... sorry

Reserve
wake

Wake

I pull the sheets from my head,
I breathe in the fumes of today,
A stench of blood and tears,
And a sence that spirit's fray,

I clamber into my shell,
Hope someone hears my call,
Tired yet I'm so awake,
Of hearing those who fall,

My courage lightens to break,
The darkness lifts to light,
I stand upon my own two feet,
And strength helps me to fight,

I take a step and feel quite pleased,
A battle I have won,
I take another and so fourth,
And suddenly I run,

I fear the bed's closeness,
Again, I'll never tred,
Passion drives me to my life,
And to this I have fled,

Happiness fills my soul,
A blindness lifts my weight,
My muscles pull me forward,
As my head sets me straight.

This is about a patient coming out of hospital after being unable to move their legs.

Sorry, But can i change my poem to a slightly longer one which has more story to it?

Here it is:

~*~

Given Up

As I stand there gazing into your eyes,
I remember everything that happened.
Now you have come to claim your prize,
As you have suceeded in your game.

Nights of terror and torture but you didnt mind,
You were only thinking of claiming your prize.
I couldnt believe i could have been so blind,
As i layed there cold, washed in my own blood.

You ripped me of my inocence,
The only bit of hope and faith i had.
I thought you had at least one bit of sense,
But you carried on as if nothing had ever happened.

Why did you do that to me?
I thought you said that you loved me.
Well that was too good to be true,
I always knew that we could never be.

Wishing you were behind bars,
Where every inch of you deserves to be
Instead your out their buying flash cars,
With what was supposed to be our money.

Everywhere you go, every step you take,
I will be there, watching, haunting you.
And as you sit there beside our lake,
I will make sure your remaining life is hell.

I well never stop this fight,
To get you where you are supposed to be
Your destination I have in sight,
And in my eyes I havent Given Up.

~*~

Its about a girl who loved this guy but then he raped and killed her and how she will always be there to haunt his life forever. Sorry to have such a morbid subject. It ISNT a true story either.

~*~

I'm sorry if it is too long. It is only 28 lines though. But please let me change it? And if you have let me can you let me know please?

Thankyou.

..X..TheGhostOfMe..X..

Is this contest going to end? Because I do not think anyone else wants to enter.

Ya im just waiting for the people that havent finished to finish

Oooh...Ok. Thankyou.

In Between

Lost in the middle,
Intense waters seeping,
Betwixt in my head,
Interfering sound sleeping.

Pounding white knuckles,
Entire system drained,
Nights spent staying up,
Eyes red and strained.

Knees touch the ground,
Feet hit the floor,
Praying for miracles,
Freely given before.

Elbows are aching,
Tears drop like water,
Heart tricked, confused,
As a sheep led to slaughter.

Sweet sanity's breaking,
Upon the black ice,
Lost in between,
To not pay the price.

WOW!!! I am very impressed!
