Sculpted Lives, please. =]

I'd like to reserve but I still haven't decided which I want (have a couple to choose from).I'll let you know later...

Could I do dancing on the edge?

Dancing on the Edge By: Run Out Of Words

Words thrown around,
tears spilled about.
And before they fall to the ground,
they gently touch my mouth.

Yes the same mouth,
which you kissed in the rain.
Yes the same mouth,
through which I whispered words of pain.

You've got me strung up like a puppet,
dancing to your tunes.
And once in a while you set me free,
yeah once in a blue moon.

So I'm not used to freedom,
you shouldn't have let me go.
Being you puppet and dancing to your tunes,
is all I seem to know.

I can't roam around this world,
have you seen how big it is?
I'm merely just a innocent girl,
who can't deal with all of this.

I need to be under your wing,
I need your support.
I need a song to sing,
And yours was the only one that brought me comfort.

You decided it was best,
for me to be on my own.
But what about the rest,
what about all the love you had shown?

You decided everything,
so when can I have my say?
Your words still ring,
when I think about the day you went away.

I was your puppet,
and I had made a pledge.
I wanted to dance for you forever,
but now I'm dancing on the edge.

I would please like This Cut and No, Said Love

Josie

P.S Thanks for waiting... :)

Join Me In Death.

Oh, you humble man
come and take my hand.
Walk with me
through eternity.

You know the road,
you've learned it well.
Each and every time
you have fell.

I'm just lost,
this is my first time.
I'm not sure
how to cross the line.

From here to there,
seems too far.
And, I don't even
know who you are.

Just the man
I met on the street.
That was meant
for me to meet.

And, he's meant
to join me in death.
With one last wish,
before he lies to rest.

What shall it be?
Oh, I already know.
The reason you hide,
for no stranger can
change your mind.

Sorry Endofthebeginning, but Join me in death is already taken. feel free to pick another one of my titles that isn't taken.

That's fine, and if you want to choose another to replace Join me in Death that's fine too, but you don't have to.

This Cut

This cut doesn't mean
What it did before
It just leaves me
Wanting more

I am unsatisfied
With one measly cut
I feel ad though
I'm stuck in a rut

I need more
To stop the pain
But this lonesome cut
Is all in vain

But this cut doesn't do
What it did before
I now feel nothing
Where once I lay bleeding on the floor

Maybe I should cut deeper, more often
Until I live no more
Because this single cut
Doesn't mean what it did before

No, Said Love

I saw a guy
He was like an angel from above
I begged that he be mine
But, 'No', said Love

I questionned why
Love had said, 'No'
And let the man I had fallen for
Just get up and go

But I got no answer
Just silence instead
So I begged for Love
To leave me, dead

'Kill me', I begged
And Love said 'No'
"Bleed me to death
And let me go'

I stood on the edge of a cliff
And begged it to shove
But once again
'No', said Love

I stayed up
All night trying
To figure out
Why Love has left me crying

All I wanted was a man in my life,
This man named Joe
All i wanted was him
And Love said, 'No'

Sorry. Double post.

Can I do the Beauty Within?

Here ya go!!! Hope it's ok.

Cry to the Moon

From the start of day one
The horror had begun
To a small little girl
And her small little world
Hurt and afraid
Were her childhood days
Alone and confused
She was always accused
Of everything

And she cries to the moon
Tells her the story
Of a brave little girl
Who has no glory
She bleeds from her lips
All the things that haunt her
Exposed are the lies
Lays behind her eyes
That cry fears of the world

Cry, little girl cry
Cry to the moon
As the flowers of June
Come to life

Scream, little girl scream
Scream to stars
Uncover all of your scars
From the pain

Cry to the moon
Oh cry your heart away
All the memories of yesterday

Cry to the moon

I have decided to move the end date to June 15.

I will do another. I would like This Cut please!

I know I am double posting, but no one has said anything and it would look really awquard if I put my poem in the last post. But um.....I can't. it's kind of bad. Like with cusswords. So I have it posted under my poems. Hope you enjoy!

Sorry Kyles Woman, This Cut is already taken.

Oh, sorry, I didn't see it up last night. Then can I take So I Die Happy?

Absolutely, but please get in in quickly. No rush or pressure, though. :)

Ok, it's kinda explicit becuase there are a few swear words so you'll find it under that title under my poems. Hope you enjoy!

Can i do black roses but i can i please change it to black rose instead of roses?

I hope it is ok, it is short but i hope you like it. if the title is not ok just pm me, and i will try to write another one. well hope it is ok. just so you know it is meant to be short. it was for a school assignment. it had to have less than 15 lines.

Black rose
by Nikki

Black rose,
forever impose,
your deathly hand,
upon my heart,
my life entrapping,
even tightening,
in your clasp,
your cold grasp,
forever you have me,
I'll never be free,
for now I am taken,
dead forever mistaken..

If i may also have promices. i will do that one to. i hope it's fine.

Promices
by Nikki

You made all these promises,
I hope you will one day keep,
you made me fall in love,
but I have fallen way to deep,

deeper than you ever imagined,
deep than you ever thought,
to get your love in return,
everyone knows I fought,

I did not think you would want me,
knowing of our age difference,
but when our hearts connected,
I realized there was no resistance,

when we first met,
the first gentle kiss,
I knew my love for you,
is something I could never dismiss,

you were so gentle,
as gentle to the touch,
I knew I wanted to stay with you,
I loved you way to much,

the promises you told me,
will take you a lifetime,
to live out every single one,
and your life is now mine,

you promised to love me,
forever and always,
I do not have to hide from you anymore,
or when you talk to me run away in a craze,

the promises I know you will keep,
and you are just so perfect,
I know we will never lose our love,
or ever need to try to reconnect,

I love you forever and always,
and I will be with you every minute of all the days.

Summer in the Silent Air

Picking Daisies; we layed upon a field of gold,
Flashing a milky smile; my hand you began to hold,
And as I looked into your eyes of bright sky blue,
You whispered: "I want to spend my life with you."

You laughed as tears started to cloud in my eyes,
And I looked back at you as I slowly sighed:
"My hopes are so high you could kill me with a kiss,
And life by your side is something I won't miss."

My heart was pressed against yours; racing so fast,
And your arm was around my waist; laying in the grass,
With your lips pressed against mine; I was swept away,
As we held each other under the starlit sky that day.

Summer in the silent air; it tastes so bittersweet -
Sneaking out the back doors; being so discrete,
Laying down on the floating dock; counting stars,
Making empty promises; naming those forever ours.

Sculpted Lives

Up on that golden pedestal; we sure do shine,
While they work out in their heads the perfect design,
And they snap their fingers; they've found the one,
Muttering: "These girls will be flawless when we're done!"

Bronze skin shines under the bright spotlight,
Covered slightly by a white shirt worn tight,
And our skirts are hiked up three inches too high,
Topped off with make-up around our blind eyes.

Chiseled to perfection; down to every detailed curve,
Our beauty is one thing they've worked hard to preserve;
A masked beauty with an exterior of disguise,
Is the prettiest little thing in all of their egotistic eyes.

We've got the looks; they don't care about the brain,
Holding the compliments from the gents so vain,
And we fall under pressure; on beauty we thrive,
For society now has control over our sculpted lives.
