Darkness
Darkness of an uncaring universe
Cold and endless without a single sphere of light
Total silence that rips through unheard noises
It is truly a world of darkness and nothingness
There is nothing to hear
Beings of thought long ago died away without uttering their final words
Nothing to say
Mouths have been sealed shut from an eternity of apathy
No reason to be
Life that needed the light of hope could never bear the dark
The laws of existence are unknown and unwelcome
Thoughts drift through a million miles of nothingness
Alone and never discovered they are lost to time
Even dreams, the ideas of Heaven cannot survive
They wither and die in the grip of fear
Never given the chance to grow and become a new reality
The only thing is the darkness and all of the loss it causes
With no escape and no hope of survival
It is better to accept what fate the gods have decreed
Suffer the darkness of the universe until the end of time
If it ever comes
Am I destined to be alone in life?
I never understood life.
Until now
It is pain and suffering.
I found the one I want to be with
She is so far away
I love her
But I can never meet her
It is unimaginable pain
I can get over so easily though and move on
Because I know she respects me and in my heart
We know we love each other
I will never see her sweet smile again
Because I left her
I hope time heals
I can be a better person
I have my whole life ahead of me
I hope I made the right decision
I am in neverland
As the young boy who never grew up
Or in my case never took the next step.
You’ve broken my heart
You’ve broken my soul
You used your hugs and kisses
And all of the lies that you told
The promises that you made to me
Are now dust in the wind
Look at all of my broken pieces
How can I ever love again
I have nothing left to give
I have no love in my heart to share
It’s a hollow, empty shell
A home that’s walls are bare
Nothing lives here now
Cobwebs are forming thick
No flame can ever burn
In a candle without a wick
I hope you’re happy now
I hope this pain you’ll never know
Because now I live day to day
Until God says it’s my time to go
I guess Fear overpowered Hope and Faith. I guess
that way
is best.That way no one hurts. Just
right. No
mistakes. No
mess-ups and
broken hearts.
Foolishness, like a bird
sees no cat ready
to pounce. To kill.
To make it suffer.
Well that bird
had hope and faith,
but forgot about the simple facts of life.
Whoever said two wrongs don't make a right,
Has never truly said goodbye.
To cut all ties let hope reside.
Tell the truth -
There's no longer need to lie.
Crash and burn,
I pray death comes slow.
And in the end I hope your alone.
No one there to hear your last moan.
And I hope,
you wonder
What if.
As
you die -
Alone.
Why did you mean so much?
I hope one day you look back
and see the good times you
spent with me. While i look
back and see you were my
everything. You were the only
one i needed then things got
so complicated. I tried my best
to save it but i fell short my love
couldn't save us so heres to the
past where my memories lay i
hope they rest in peace
cause they're here to stay.
Heres to the past the Eternal
resting place of my memories
I wish for nothing,
I ignore the truth,
I hope for something,
and thats all I do.
Movement towards,
the f'ing door,
handle turns,
the f'ing sun,
the f'ing porch,
movement back,
two f'ing steps,
f'ing slam.
I wish for nothing,
I ignore the truth,
I hope for movement,
someone push me out the door.
so lonely,so sad.yours feelings are hurt, can't trust to love
no more.
have a beautiful smile but hurt inside,trying to make ends
meets.
thinking life is just like a drama soap opera on tv.
you wanted somebody to shelter you,somebody to hold you
your sad and scared,you hope one day that true love will
ever come towards you.
you wish and wish and wish.
you wish you can fly away where no one wouldn't bother you no more
you hope to be happy but can't be.
but there is somebody who will shelter you,all you gottah do is
trust in them.
Life’s encompassing goal
Seeks to make the soul a whole,
In a hope to regain
What is its true frame,
Created as one
Torn apart to almost none,
It dies within the depression of time
Losing itself is its only crime,
No control that it has
Makes the loss only last,
Seemingly longer
With no way to grow stronger,
In the hope from a moment
Flies a peaceful comet,
Returns the soul
From bitter pieces
To once again a whole
A lifelong lesson it teaches.
The cloud was thick and dark.
The rainbow has refused to come up in the sky
The sun of all would not even shine anymore.
There are no traces of a star in the sky.
Suddenly, like an angel, she appeared from
amidst the thickness of the clouds, she came forth
bringing with her the rays of hope and faith and joy.
Little did I know this hope wasn't going to last.
If I had knew, would I have built a beautiful world around you?
Would I have made you the pillar of my strength and joy?
Would I have allowed myself to be carried away,
If I knew it was going to be short-lived?
I fell for the deceit of assurance over again.
Then I realize how painful it is to see those we truly love
walk out of our lives.
There ain't anything as painful as it, but you know,
What pains the most is when they make us believe they love us
when in the real sense of it, they don't!
You'll always have a place in my heart.
I'll never forget you.
You were like my brother, my protector,
my homie when times were hard.
I hope your spirit is free and you
can finally relax and let down your guard,
I guess I'm selfish, because I never would've let you leave.
I know you're in a better place but I can't help but be jealous.
I just wish you could've stayed a little longer but
they what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.
I love you and I hope you never forget.
You lived your life to the fullest and with little regret
No matter who I talk to or who I meet,
there will never be one like you.
You got all them suckers beat.
Extreme pain and agony consumes me,
this state I'm in will soon ruin me;
though I want to live a long healthy life,
I may not make it through the night.
The pressure constantly builds inside,
upon my face lies dried tears from my silent cries;
though I pray for things to be alright,
I may not make it through the night.
They say surgery is the answer,
or medicine is the cure;
somehow I know it's not that simple,
to end this will take much more.
The fear is overwhelming,
when the time comes there's no place to hide.
I hope that I've accomplished,
all that I've had in mind.
I hope I've lived my life to the fullest,
loved with all my heart,
and made things right;
if I don't make it through the night.
You lie your way through life,
Not caring who you hurt.
You greedy *bunny*,
I hope you get what you deserve.
You're eyes have a sign of innocence,
Although it's not at all true.
But just wait,
One day, you'll get what's coming to you.
Hit the one who gave you birth,
Yeah, that's really sweet.
Throw her against the wall
And then see who gets beat.
You touch her one more time,
And I'll show you so much pain.
I'll leave you for dead,
Laying in the rain.
You come home drunk,
Beat her, then pass out on the floor.
I hope you're ready,
Cuz one day, you'll get defeated, by the one you adore.
Blackness surrounding me
Streaked with differing shades of grey
Shards of hope fly by
Shattered dreams from ages past
Reflecting the total lack of light
Just out of my grasp
Why are they here teasing me?
Making me think that there is a chance
That there may be a way out
I look
Scanning the darkness
I watch the shimmering hope float by
At the tips of my extended fingers
Then I realize that it is a vain effort
Hope will never come to me
I resign myself to the eternal blackness
To grasping for dreams
That I will never ever reach
I wish the memory of you would depart.
I wish that I could cut you from my heart.
I wish that I had not met you that fateful day,
I wish I had run far far away.
I wish I had not been so naive
I wish I had just let you leave.
It does not matter what I wish,
For regret is now your dish.
Regret of ever loving you.
Regret of having no clue.
Regret that vile you spew?
Regret means nothing to you!
It makes my blood run cold
That I believed the lies you told!
Will I ever truly be whole?
Can I forget what you stole?
I hope to one day be
The one that is truly free.
I hope to find release.
I hope that you give me peace.
