Premium Member Rain
I sit here thinking alone in the rain, thinking of my sorrow, misery, and pain. I sit here listening to the thunder crashing down, knowing my life is better when you’re around. As I sit here watching the storm roll on, all I think about is you, and how you are gone. As I look at the dark clouds above, I sit...

Blood Type: O-verwhelmingly Lonely
By moonlit nights, I prowl with grace, No mirror shows my pale, sharp face. Stake through heart? Please, not today— I dodge those stakes and run away. Garlic bread? You think I'll drool? I've got a stash behind the stool. Sunlight's foe? A mild complaint, Sunscreen 50 is my saint. I drink your blood, but don't take fright— It's just a snack to get...

Self-conflicted
I'm so conflicted, I can't find my way back home. I've been missing, I tried to save myself again. I've been wishing, A star would find this hole in me. My heart keeps skipping, down the road to a loathsome beat. I keep slipping, I'm so high I've lost my feet. The words their all missing, from everything I wanted to say. I'm so conflicted...

Premium Member Missing You
It's a funny strange thing When you're not around Like the lack of a smile On a circus clown Or a ferris wheel, With all empty seats a candied apple, More tart than sweet Like a merry-go-round That looks kind of scary Or that huge prize teddy You're not here to carry An amusement park, On a winters day And as...

Alone Ranger
Let's be lonely together Lonely's no fun on my own It doesn't depend on the weather I'm lonely because I'm alone The number of people don't matter I could be all alone in a crowd The words that I hear are just chatter I simply tune out all the loud Quiet by nature, an actor I play a good role socially But...

Maybe all this time I have never loved anyone
Maybe all this time I have never loved anyone, Even God above—but I asked Him to change my personality into a wise and loving human being, And prevent me from wasting something rare, So that I don't feel lonely anymore...

Time Shops
Crazy how past days weighs heavily on each raindrop passing by, as a train token in the abyss, it sinks deeper subconsciously, i reminisce, careful thoughts glide over ice, paradise is not enough to suffice the wreckage that ensued under the night sky, mind afloat in the flood of broken hopes, staying above not wanting to drown, gazing upward, it persists, clenching it's fists it insists to seek help through the mist, as raindrops carry time shops to swap eternity when it stops....

breathless, my journey ends
Dried-up, ___a stream___ in the moor, no-man’s land. When a soul dares near— a gunshot blooms / Red / the barren soil will feast on anything. You said amid this desert stands —an oasis— A land of innocence, but where you crown sins. (Greedy, yes, but that’s all humanity ever is.) I begged you to point me to the shrine yet I am left stumbling, ...blind... Before...

Premium Member Abandon Me to Heaven
How does it feel to be unwanted, forgotten and abandoned? Spectral memories leave me haunted with no ground to stand on.   Ever wishing only to belong, drifting through my life alone to the sad tune of a heartbreak song like a leaf the wind has blown. Skin and bones and growing old, enduring more, unable, floating from the street of cold, I join the welcome table....

What I've Come to Want
I want to go to a place Where people are happy to see me I want to glide through things And feel there is romance there where people want to get diamond rings I want to be in a place Where people care about each other Where they believe in their brothers and sisters And fathers and mothers...

I Want To Tell You, But
There’s a hell of a lot going on inside my mind I wish I could tell you everything The way you always used to listen. I wish I could run to you and share all of it From my tiniest wins to my biggest falls I’m dying to hear just one line from you: “Say... I’m listening.” All these unsaid words They’re building up...

Thirteen Tapes
A voice recorded, soft but clear, Echoes pain we failed to hear. Hannah spoke from shadows deep, Of secrets buried none should keep. A hallway's whisper, locker stares, Unseen wounds and empty chairs. A photo passed, a cruel slight, Each reason dimmed another light. Justin's love turned into blame, Jessica’s tears, the haunting shame. Bryce’s smirk, a predator’s grin, The silence loud—it let him win. Clay rewinds...

Remember
You don’t remember me, Do you, It's not like I was the person who stayed by your side when everything sucked, You say I stalked you by knowing where you live, But you also know where I live, Because it's less than 2 blocks away, And you passed it everyday on the way to school, But no, You don't remember me, Because even then...
