You're My Subconscious MemoryI wish I could remember.
I wish I could remember the way it felt to be in your safe embrace,
I wish I could remember the way you taste,
& That buzzing that was left on my lips after we shared a kiss.

I wish I could remember your eyes and their color-
That bright, vivid green that's impossible to describe & forever embedded in my subconscious memory.
{But I know that memories aren't photographs, & I know my memory is not doing you any justice}

I wish I could speak to you again, {Your voice always calmed me down}
You always knew exactly what to say,
& You knew how to make everything seem okay.

I wish that you'd come back to me,
I wis

Forever YoungIf you could live forever, would you take that chance?

Imagine, watching your own life from afar.
Remembering the heartbreak and the tears,
Seeing all the people who left you with scars;
Coming to terms with your hidden fears.
Remember the day when you said to me,
"I want to die young or live forever."
Surely after all these years, you can see
You cannot simply wish for whatever.
Because every time I see you cry,
I'm reminded of just how much I love you.
How could you possibly wish to die?
If only you knew, if only you knew…

Do you really want to live forever?

DetatchmentDetatchment

I'm a forgotten island
All alone out at sea
This is where i stand
Where no-one wants to be
My barren lonely shore
Lies cold bleak and bare
More deserted than before
Populated by my despair

In this endless ocean
With it's waves of pain
My overwhelming emotion
It's crushing me again
You all drifted away
Off into the distance
Just why won't you stay?
Share this empty place

unwanted and rejected
Exciled out of sight
Because I am infected
By your perfect light
Those false visions
Have forced my decline
My pathetic decisions
Lying that I'm fine

Those stories I here
Are tearing us apart
Each one a cold tear

TabooWhen I first met you...
you revealed your dark ideals.
Yet, others don't understand...
the way I truly understand you.

Your ideals are considered taboo.
You interest yourself in dark things...
like a cult performing dark magic...
under a black and sinister moon.

Your mind is dark and dirty...
to those who do not understand.
Yet you submerge yourself deeper...
into that deep dark taboo.

You search for one to understand you.
Yet, nobody chooses to listen to your taboo.
You're being forced down a long and dark tunnel...
one deeply full of darkness and hatred.

Yet, I am one of the few who understand you.
I understand your deep an

WheneverWhenever I smile at you
I see the frown that passes by.
I know its silly,
but I still smile
As I cant cry to your face.

Whenever I look in your eyes
I see the mock inside.
I know Im clumsy
But seeing that look in your eyes,
makes me want to die.

Whenever I hear you speak of me.
I can hear you laugh.
I know I am stupid,
But knowing you think so too
makes me want to quit life.

I know its crazy
But I thought you knew,
I had always been this way
Because
whenever I look at you
I cant help but be silly clumsy stupid and crazy,
All at the same time.

It's the Wrong Time and Placejust burn all the waste and the stains of the past
hold the orb in your hands for the wrong and the sad
it's the wrong kind of place to be walking on glass
feeling teeth sift through sand in the shadow of the wrath

it's the wrong time
to be still holding back
it's the wrong place
for the piece of the last
it's the wrong time
to be trapped in the dark again

with the skin feel it crawl through the tears and the bone
churning black and the dawn in the gray of the stone
hold your gaze to the stars fight the curse of alone
bringing joy to your hands while you stand on the throne

it's the wrong time
to be feeling this cold
it's the

Alone In The StormI’m no angel, just a
Weary traveler in this lifetime
Searching for the missing
Piece of my soul…
Will I ever find it, and as I search
Do I turn a blind eye to every
Other human experience to be had?
Do I let the tempests of the past damage
The untainted future? And when
Does it all become worth fighting for?
So many questions, of which I may
Never find the answers, nevertheless
I find myself resigned to my fate
Alone in the storm, scarcely
Treading the surface…
Perhaps it was always there in front of me, if
Only I opened my eyes.
Perhaps the skies have always been clear, and
The wind was simply crying my name.
Perhaps it has been worth it all along, and all it took was
One word from you.
Please…

A Piece Of YouI touch the strings of my guitar,
And they spiral inward,
Everything I touch seems to fall part.
Falling into darkness,
A depressive state,
This was my fate.

We started as perfect strangers,
Boys meets girl,
Or…Girl meets boy.
A perfect sensation,
You drove me into fixation.
A goddess of a sort,
I guess that's what you were to me.
Yeah, I guess that's what you were to me.

That friend of yours,
He takes a sip of tea then whispers in your ear,
You smile and you whisper in his,
Singing a melody,
Sweet, like the summer days past,
You look at me, I look to you,
A cold stare, hasn't winter passed?

My heart shakes, until it

Tongue Of LaceYour eyes could colour a masterpiece
engraved it in my mind
I may be many miles away
But I cant leave them behind

Your smile can speak a thousand words
But I only hear a few
Can't comprehend the things you say
Just promise me they're true

[chorus]
I cant promise I'll ever keep good time
And I cant promise I wont cross the line
But your patient with me
Your warm and kind
And I'm so lucky I could make you mine

Your tongue is made of lace I swear
don't you know how words can move me?
So give me motive if you dare
I trust you - don't abuse me

Your shoulders where I lay my head
Against your beating chest
No other place I'd r

Instead of meIf I wasn't me
Who would I be
And would there be
Someone like me?

If I wasn't me
Who would it be
Taking all my places?
If I wasn't me
Who would it be
Filling the empty spaces?

Who would be the child of my mother
My sibling's sister or the brother?
Who would be my best friends' best friend?
Would there be better ones in the end?
Who would be my lover's lover?

If I wasn't me
Who would it be
Taking all my places`
If I wasn't me
Who would it be
Filling the empty spaces?

Who would make my failures and mistakes?
A daredevil rising the high stakes?
Who would capture my victories?
Or sing my songs, or tell my stories?
Would t

UnaccompaniedAre you tired of hiding it
Of exhausting yourself
You don't know why you do it
It's not for anyone else
You're not much more than a hollow shell
Going through the motions in your awful hell.
Sure, you can put on the infamous fake smile
And you're strong enough to leave it there for a while
You don't even have to think, it comes with ease
If you don't want to cry, you don't have to squeeze
Those tear ducts shut, you just tell them no
And you go back to the life of taking it slow
It's actually quite impressive, how much you can take
And I'm really quite astonished on how much you can fake
But before you give up, and just go jump i

Have I Found You?Love of mine ;

It's like jelly and static jumbling in my organs. Chunks of incoherent thought pressing against each other, competing for attention.

And it takes less than a fraction of a millisecond - dismantled, broken. Mother Earth spread her jaws, tore the mantle from the core.

We are irreversible ;

ShardsShards

Small fragments of light
Ripping through the dark
Upon my flesh they ignite
Resurrecting a dead spark
More curse than virtue
The same devastating fire
That would only hurt you
If I revealed the desire

Yet it lingers inside
Constantly screaming out
Becoming too hard to hide
The cold poisonous doubt
Can't diagnose what I feel
When my emotions seem fake
Is anything in here real?
Is everything one mistake

I fight on to disregard
The shadows, the lies
Riding on every shard
The pain upon it flies
Descending down from you
Twisting through the air
Cutting their way through
Bitter shards of despair

Why are they still he

Don't Look BackI can see it in your eyes,
Inside,
Your breaking, shaking,
You feel like you've been forsaken,
Like the smallest of organisms,
Ants,
Worms,
Bacteria,
You feel lower than them.

Who are you? No one cares,
They'll brush you off,
As if you were the wind,
Why do they hate you?
You've committed no sin,
Why do they hate you?
I guess it's no reason at all…

Why do they tease you about the way you look?
You're still beautiful to my eyes…
Why do they falsely claim your sexual orientation?
Why should they even care?
Perhaps it's out of fear,
Whatever the reason, it doesn't matter.
Pull your chin up and walk forward…

Lost My HeartI lost my heart
The day you were smiling at me it was
Without willing it flew to you
Out of my nose, out of my eyes,
Out of my ears, out of my mouth
It run to you
Anemic I am now
Without beating pushing me on
Nothing in my chest expands
Or contracts anymore
I'm just yearning for my heart
Beating in your chest, unnoticed

The ChoiceShe knew she had to do something to get out.

She couldn't take it anymore.
It was too much to bear.

Too much love.
The undeserved kind.
To be loved so much by the parents
she had dissapointed.

Loved too, by the sister
she had not being a good influence on.

Loved even, by the people
she never actually considered family.

But she had screwed it up.

She finished college, had a career.
She didn't do drugs, she didn't drink.
She was obedient, she followed the rules.

Rules that were going to break her apart.

The only thing that her parents ever asked of her
was the very thing, she could not bring herself to be.

They wanted h

You... my sisterYou
who's always been there for me

You
whom I can call anytime I need to

You
who will shout my flaws a me
everytime my head goes up

You
who will remind me of my qualities
when I have forgotten them

You
who can always make me smile
when I feel like I'm dying inside

You
who can bring me back to earth
when I've gone out of it

You
whom I can always count on
even when we're angry at each other

You...
my sister, my rock

I love YOU
more that I will ever say out loud ;P

If only...If only life were that fair

Hard...Hard is the word I'm looking for...
not difficult, not troublesome, not even
unbearable, because ''hard''
explains perfectly all these words
put together

It's so hard to do the right thing
when you would lose people you love
in the process

It is even harder to conceal a secret
that is killing someone slowly
and not being able to say
what you know
a knowledge that would put an end
to their suffering

But the hardest thing
is not doing anything at all
because of a promise
and watch both people
fall apart in front of your eyes

I rememberI remember those times
when you would talk to me
the instant I appeared on msn
because face to face we were
just too shy
and we would talk for hours
getting to know each other

I remember each weekend
since I met you
How we would always hang out
and enjoy each other's company

I remember each message
you sent me
specially the ones when you
called me baby and
wished me goodnight

I remember feeling nervous
the first time we went
to the movies together
and feeling happy beyond compare
when you took my hand
and hugged me closer to you

I also remember each thing
you've said and done
since you asked me to be your gi

Fallen

by *SomeonesBella, Mar 29, 2012, 12:34:59 PM
Literature / Poetry / Emotional / Free Verse

And though I crave to know he loves me,
at the same time I'm afraid,
Knowing the words that I'll have to say,
because there is simply no other way.

We cannot be together
from the start, we knew that
yet we continued talking,
so much not to cross the line.

I tried hard not to fall for him,
faking deafness to his beautiful words,
striving for nonchalance,
yet succeeding at none.

Because just as I know we have no future,
I couldn't have stopped it before it was born,
the feeling of loving, and to be sure of that love.

And still I cannot change it,
even if the pain becomes too much.
Because that means that I've been happy
so much more than I had hoped.

Each moment I got to know him,
it only made me feel it more,
even though he is not perfect,
or what I was looking for.

Yet knowing him has shown me,
that maybe I was wrong,
that wanting and needing
are the same, yet they are not.

He's always making me happy
and he doesn't even try,
thoughts of him are playing
every second in my mind.

And still the answer is not changing,
a future we cannot have,
and it's not like we can reverse it
because when it comes to this,
there's just not going back.
