Thick fog and calm waters

make it harder to resolve

the end as we know it.

Then you say the worst thing

the thing I never wanted to hear

I can't live without you.

So now we are sinking together in calm waters

freezing in thick fog, can't see a thing.

I have nothing to my name

need to save myself

step forward and be counted.

[Enemy]

Coming up the stairs

That dark slate, Which I impress

It reaps only what I sow

I know it's reaching for my toes.

 

Creak

A step dreamt, still in the static.

Creak

Another - be still, don't imagine.

 

Coming up the stairs

Eyes open, eyes closed

Mirrored laminate clicks

I already know who it is.

[New Born Lee]

Tow the line, blind wolves cry.

Listen to mosquitoes as they suck in time.

To the cinders, to the hall,

Until the blood drips down the wall.

To all the spiders: crawl.

To all mosqui-squi-squis: suffer.

To all mosqui-squi-squis: burn.

To all mosqui-squi-squis: suffer.

To all mosqui-squi-squis: burn.

Love that rhythm! ^^

 

 

 

To see your eyes and curse the sight

and taste the fruit and not to bite

is painful pleasure.

Wrapped in an angelic vision

my love and lust has no permission

I taste the agony.

Fingers licked stroke and play

upon your words that turn to clay

I haven't the heart to erase them.

 

Soooooo dramatic

[svenBliss]

My boys, ugh ugh,

My homies, ugh ugh,

We be blowin up ya memories, ugh ugh,

Be at da party,

Just drinkin a fifth,

And da girls looking arty,

Know they want ya hearty,

And shit, ugh ugh.

[Guest QueenOfNerds]

See in the new year with love

echo these words.

Let go and be happy

it is all I wish for you and yours.

 

 

 

It's so nice to scar for pleasure

cut a deep cut for leisure

drink me and I'll drink you

lets start a new.

[lensip max]

The first one's sweet

 

 

When Black Humour Goes Fail

It is my sense of filial piety

That stops me casting away my mortality

Do you want to know the irony?

I was abandoned when I was eight

(Yet for my folks, I feel no hate.

Instead, I vest all that in me)

It's a funny kind of symmetry.

[Guest QueenOfNerds]

Two meet, make connection

in passing collection of memories.

We're stained forever

with whatever we shared.

Grace in our motion

do we care for devotion and eternity

when we are stained and changed

by the briefest of meetings.

[Guest QueenOfNerds]

Trying to find a way back to pleasantries

this has always kept me back

but these points will mend my heart.

Not cold, I can find beauty

fresnel, occlusion, ambiance

I can make something beautiful

as real as you and me

and you'll see just what you've lost.

 

Cried for an hour, it never happened.

Deleted your words you never said them

we never spoke.

letting go now, unclenched my fist

released white knuckles

welcome numbness.

[Guest QueenOfNerds]

Light skips and is broken

there is no normal,

doesn't exist.

We do the same things every day

and it betrays reality.

Define everything, with a name

and a place, because we haven't grown.

 

You are beautiful for now

this is the perfect time to reflect

and capture you.

Don\t rely on it too long

it won't get you everything you want.

I am effected by it

drawn to your flame

only to be burned

I want to visit the spectacular

we could have had a spark.

Keep it for now and forever,

do what you want with it.

Yours to destroy.

The colour shards cut deep down,

Vibrant jolts of joy felt all around,

Like the taste of acid but the smell of roses,

Bittersweet emotions come in strange doses,

I've yet to find a simpler way,

Of explaining the goings on from day to day,

But the colour shards do their best,

To release the poisons from my chest.

I love that one. Though very sad

[svenBliss]

thanks !

[Guest QueenOfNerds]

I reached out but not far enough

and the energy could not change my love,

the energy could not be changed

for all my want and trying could only be rearranged.

like loves mutt, I follow and cut

the most sorrowful shadow.

If I can't let this go should I go?

where I can't follow a ghost.

[lensip max]

^that's beautiful.

 

They ask a lot if I'm a dancer:

I only ever have one answer.

The way I move is more a measure

Of self-preservation than grace -

to float and show a smiling face

Is in fact not much of a leisure, in

A world filled with edges

On which to catch fragile skin,

And I am wishbone thin

To present less of a target.

So forget the praise that hedges me;

I am not who I would like to be.

[fadeddusk]

this is my life

or thats what they say

but it doesnt seem like it

it seems like a timeline

one person draws the story.

it just goes on until the end.

which is coming very soon.

i sit and start to wonder can a timeline end it self?

my life may do just that

unless there is a change

but until i know for sure

my life

the timeline

will go on

but it doesnt seem like it.

 

haha. not very good. pretty deppressing. this one scared my parents I wrote it to scare them into letting me go to a muse concert haha. it didnt work ;( i actually am pretty sad about it, but the poem is a bit exageratting. lol. heres a happier one about dom

 

His eyes brighten the darkest room

his smile lightens the saddest gloom.

hes drumming so hard it shakes the ground

his voice is of the sweetest sound

the sight of him knocks my breath away

my love for Dom is here to stay

You only realize

How life is important

When you lose something precious

You only realize

That this precious

Will not come back

You only realize

To look on the past

And remember those good times.

[Killas[SiN]]

Running voices in my head,

Screaming out to be fed,

The innocence of life -

Shall be shred.

 

Glimpse upon glimpse, of Paradise;

The silver stars burning bright,

Nothing else matters when I'm here...

 

In Faith, Unshakeable,

In Fear, Unquakeable,

In Pain, Unbreakable,

And In Death -Indestructible.

 

Stalking swiftly, Out

of sight. Demons lurking in my

Psyche.

Crimson eyes leering at my ache...

 

I'll never give up,

I won't fall down...

It's the pain that makes me real...

 

Twitching,

Turning,

Reveling in Strife.

They seek to break me down.

 

Well let me tell you now

-I am Invincible.

 

Listenin' to Disturbed - Perfect Insanity

 

Meh. Some kind of empowering emo poem.

Where do you get your inspiration from?

[Guest QueenOfNerds]

You have been the death of me here, but the pleasure is mine.

Catalyst and witness to my sexual awakening.

The fact that you inspire, don't squander the gifts you have.

My swan song, I will return free.

And my eyes were closed

I would not see a single star until I was over this

I still see cloud but I have stopped the endless chatter

and don't intend to spend my life waiting.

[handythomas]

What good is love.

I waited for your love in hope,

That ours would come again,

And make me feel the things I felt,

When we were one, back then.

 

But time and distance have erased,

The things I wished anew,

And now I find myself alone,

Though I am here with you.

 

What good is love, that does not touch,

What good is love, that gives you pain.

What good is love, that makes you run,

And makes you lost out in the rain.

 

I traveled to another world,

Out far beyond the one we knew,

I thought that I could live again,

And now I find I'm back with you.

 

But what of hearts that beat as one,

And what of passion and embrace,

Is it too much to ask of you,

To make these tears of mine erase.

 

What good is love, that does not touch,

What good is love, that gives you pain.

What good is love, that makes you run,

And makes you lost out in the rain.

 

Too painful this - to journey back,

To times of love and laughter free,

The times we lay together with

A sense of you , a sense of me.

 

So now, I journey on alone,

Forever wandering, in my thoughts,

And I shall ask you once again,

What good is love.

Love is not just a word. If the expression of love is not there in all its expressed senses, then it is not what Love should be.
