Forget

Forget a life that will never thrive, 
a painful fight to stay alive.                     
I can't describe the pain I feel, 
I know I need some time to heal.
Will the love from my family or a friend, 
really save a life that bound to end? 
The darkness that castsover me,
shrinks the light so I can no longer see. The lack of air takes 
my last breath, 
untill I see,
the face of death.

Sonnet 37

Will life inside this bottle rescue me,
From sorrow, shame, and Sin's seductive crown?
Though her river's release and relax me,
I dare to dream a day that I would drown.

Problems are puzzles, piece apart from peace,
And waterfalls of wine weaves worries wind...
Away as lust of her I love to lease,
Consuming happiness...a short-lived friend.

Shall moderation of my life concur,
Music without mourning my morbid health?
For days on days I drink thine depths of her,
And gray to grey I grow unguarded wealth.

To I my eye shall lie and I will eye,
Her rivers, never sober, never dry.

Premium Member Je Vous Attend

JE VOUS ATTEND
Je vous attend, I wait for you,
as patient as death's rendezvous;
and just as certain as the sun
knows each tomorrow's overdue.

I wait well hid from anyone,
the devil's hope, and native son,
the gift of Hell, you'll not acquire,
until it's yours, when life is done.

Beyond each sunset's probing fire,
deep in the dark of your desire,
I wait to kiss all hope away,
and give you more than you acquire.

I wait for you beyond the day,
into the night that will not stay,
I wait in dark, your only friend,
And I will love your death away,

Deep in the night that has no end,
I wait for you, je vous attend,
Beyond the life you now pretend,
Beyond the life you now pretend.

Invisible Man

I am as human as anyone
I like to be happy and have fun
But you don’t care for me, even if you can
To you, I am the invisible man

My presence goes unnoticed all the time
For you, talking to me is like a crime
Do you see my face when you look at me
Or do you just look and never see

Your priceless attention I try to grab
To brighten up my world, that’s so drab
I make silly jokes to fill your life with spice
But to you, I am someone you despise

So I live my life as best as I can
Smiling through my tears, trying to be a man
A man whose existence, to you,  in your world is desirable
Not what I am now, Invisible

Games

No one will ever know how much you are upset
Or the person you really wish to be.
You feel like life is a massive, long bet.
And hate is all you want people to see. 
Nothing anymore is right in your mind, 
And you are filled with some evil despite. 
You feel like no one is ever real kind, 
And all they really do is bite. 
All you want is someone to help right now, 
But you know no one will come rescue you. 
So all you want to do is take a bow, 
And then show them what you were meant to do. 
Now you are gone and are growing much fame, 
Because you always knew life was a game.

Onslaught

Seething with anger and hatred twards all, 
adding each day another brick to my wall.

Memories beseech me my nightmares unending,
viewing my life by being condisending.

Evil and darkness run rampit in my head,
and I wish once again for me to be dead.

No more pain I must hide and hold,
no more anger to release and unfold.

Peace in no existance,rest in death,
who needs life when all life has left?

A souless body wondering in shame,
and my own cowardly demond is the only one I can blame.

Guessing Game

I know sometimes it's going to rain,
And without pain there is no gain.
But how much do I really have to live?
Considering everything about me I give.
I do my best to make everyone smile,
And when I'm lonely it's your number I 
dial.
From time to time I feel helpless and 
alone,
Even though I'm 31 and fully grown.
Am I ever going to catch a break,
Or am I always going to be chased by the 
snake?
I hate living my life from day to day,
I never know when my mind will go astray.
I have always put on a good little front,
But for my feelings you will have to hunt.
I'm not an easy one to figure out,
However I'm not one to pout.
Until than I remain a guessing game,
And live my life exactly the same.

Pure Hell 1996

Rage that burns deep within,
Anger that kills is such a sin.
Please don't punish me for acting out,
Everyone here has had there doubts.

While the man still runs around free,
Into my soul he can still see.
Love can tare a heart in two,
Lovers turn to hatred to be with you.

Now I'm scared to search the past,
Entering a world that will forever last.
Very petrified of him coming after me,
Escape from what I know I will see,
Rape, rage and violent dreams,

Threatened by his raging screams.
Elude my life from eternal hell,
Locked inside are memories I can't tell.
Living my life as cautious as can be,

Yearning for somebody to come and rescue me.
Overcoming the pain is the difficult part,
Until the tears die I can't heal my heart.

Always feeling that I have to hide,

Living in fear will destroy you inside.
Into the gates of heaven will mean I am free,
Evading your hell is the way it should be.

Our Unconditional Love

My long denied dreams 
Met with realism 
when Your love superseded all the miseries of life  
Oh ! My  lover artist 
Paint your  love with Your divine kiss ;
the  purest eternal bliss

 You heel my heart  
With your gentle art !
I am your sweetest  muse  
Our thirst for each other 
Makes us go crazy !

the two extreme world 
Cannot deprive us  our love ! 
So we are born with a common fate
 an unconditional love  against the time
I wish to spend my life 
in your great strong arms 
Far from the country life 
Deep into the rustic charms !

I Wonder If I Will Ever Be Well

The more I try to keep in the more I feel cold
Let me open up and let the story be told
My childhood was really rough
I cannot believe I made it through all of this stuff
I felt like I was trapped inside of a cage
Trying to dodge the uncontrollable rage
On pins and needles I had to walk
I couldn’t show emotion or freely talk
Now my problems are truly deep
I often nocturnal or cry myself to sleep
This wasn’t the life that I chose
I’ve had to live with it and bury all of my woes
Growing up this way was so unkind\
I lock it all away in the back of my mind
These secrets someday I will have to tell
I wonder if I will ever be well

I wrote this one after someone opened up to me.  I hope their life gets better

Wondering

I am just wondering how life would be 
now there is no you and me
I hope to work things out 
I realy should have no doubts 
so I am just wondering how life would be
hopeing that there will once agin be a you and me

Negitive Mind

I love writing poetry.
I write whatever's on my mind.
I cant think of anything positive to write.
All I can think about is all the trouble I'v been through in my life.

That's not good.
This is not how I want to be.
I want to be somone posistive 
not somone who is full of negitivity.

I'll just pray about it.
Sombody pray for me.
I dont want to live the rest of my life depressed and angry.
That's not good for my babies and it sure aint good for me.
I will not allow any more drama in my life.
No more crying myself to sleep at night.
 
I cant change him and his selfish ways.
He's one reason why I'm depressed every day.

I feel like the biggest fool. 
Oh here I go agean with my negitive thoughts.
I cant have him in my life anymore. He can stay pissed off.

Just going to leave it in God's hands. I'm going to take my babies and leave.
Need to be in a more posistive enviroment. No more drama for me.
It's not worth it.
Need to be in a positive enviroment.
My babies deserve it.

Darkness

As the night falls
As the pain appears
My eyes start to fade pass
Evil is always the reason to stur into drama
My eyes crush with broken love

As my heart is damaged into pieces
With all my life in my hands, it's taken away from me just by the quick second
Hatred is always near me
Wherever I go...
Whatever I do...
My eyes are dead with fear

Never having a chance to say a word
What's this word?
I'm sorry
But what can be done
I really can't say

My life is over
Crushed at every second
Will I still be living now?
I really don't care

All of my friendships are torn to scraps
Each time I pass by hate is always there
My eyes want to make my life a living hell

As I kill my personality and turn into a slave
It was my life, but not no more
Killing me each and everyday
Made me want to die right then

I Wish I Was Never Single

I don't want to spend the rest of my life without a soul mate. I don't want to be single
for the rest of my so-called "miserable life." There's no way that this special someone
could've been taken away by one of the random guys. When I look at every couple I see, it
makes me wish that I had a real girlfriend and a brand new social status. Being single is
like being held back a year in middle school or worse. Being single also stinks. Is there
something I should do to not just end my single life, but ease my pain, as well? I can't
stand being lonely, I can't stand being a dateless loser, and I can't bear to watch these
couples rubbing their love right in my face. It makes me sad and sick just to see it. so
if I don't save myself from a lot of misery and end my life as a single human being, I'm
going to lose it. I love my life, but my loneliness and my pain have got to stop.

Cutter Girl

Maybe you'll see how I view my life through my scars..

Feeling alive is what I lacked
A good life is what I needed.
Cutting is what made me feel
Open wounds from a beautiful green and red razor
Slices upon my arm
Came faster than the peel of an orange
I LOVED the effects
Bloody tissue
How ALIVE I felt
Maybe one day you'll see
The person I wanted to be

Dead.
