OUR ORIGINAL POETRY: Share It Here

She was sly, he thought,

her smile curling into a secret,

her eyes reflecting in the inky darkness,

perhaps like a fox - moving with grace and cunning,

slinking along the pathway,

or perhaps more like a wolf,

fiercely protective of him,

with her chin tilted up as she walked slightly before him,

certainly she was a predator,

for she had caught him between her jaws,

forced him to submit to her insurmountable will,

she would probably have fit better in the wild,

the scent of grass and earth would cling to her,

for humans were too fake, too selfish, too absorbed in nothingness

to match her passion and ferocity,

and as he thought of what animal she had been in a past life

he realized how foolish humans were

to ever attribute emotions to other creatures

because they, like she,

were too wild to conform to mere words.

Trying to hold-

It' come again.

My dark midnight companion.

I feel the sadness and darkness mix with silence.

The place takes my voice.

I fight to stay positive and keep a smile

but these 4 dark walls make the world smaller.

You want to take my hand

but I hold back

self loathing seems safer

I hate having to start over again.

The music helps to keep me sane

the thought of losing makes me fight against my crazy.

I have friends I know they love and care

but still

this feeling remains.

I feel my mind getting darker.

I try and help you through your pain cuz I know what it feels like

We share a love who help those who are lost

But I'm just as lost most of the time.

I thought when I grew older this would get better.

I know there is light I know it will be okay

but reminding myself of this constantly is getting old.

I'll still try and smile and keep my head up.

But still this empty darkness frightens me.

I feel like sometimes the sadness will never end.

But still

I'll fight this darkness with a hopeful heart.

Depression.
They think it's just a word
They think it's just an excuse
They say "snap out of it"
Or "why can't you just be happy?"
I can't be happy.
My depression wraps me in a blanket of sadness so tight, I am physically unable to move.
To others,
It looks like I'm just being lazy
Or that I just want the attention.
But, don't you get it?
Attention is the last thing I want!
Depression makes me feel like
I'm being pulled to the bottom of the ocean.
Unable to breathe,
Unable to speak.
As I walk down the hallways of my school, I feel numb.
I feel completely hollow but also like my entire body is filled with cement.
It's like I'm stuck.
Glued to the ground.
Watching everyone pass me by and not being able to move.
That is what depression is to me.

The time came and I hit a wall
Those around saw a noble's downfall
I'd had no sin I could confess
'Til red stains adorned my dress
The one before so white as snow
Torn in the woods where black winds blow
From maiden once righteous and pure
To sinner that no faith could cure
A life coated in darker paints
No longer one of the saints

But even if the sky falls and crashes
Even if my home was to burn to ashes
I can always find a new track
I can always grow new wings on my back

Though my heart stops with cramping pain
My old self I can still regain
The past horizon I have sighted
My past love still unrequited

In This World

For those of you in this world
Who've never felt love before
For those of you in this world
Hating yourselves to the core

For those of you in this world
Who've been hated and used
For those of you in this world
Pushed around and abused

For those of you in this world
Hiding puffy, tear stained eyes
For those of you in this world
Telling finely spun white lies

For those of you in this world
Hiding truth from one another
For those of you in this world
Thinking you'll never recover

For those of you in this world
Broken and bent out of shape
For those of you in this world
No hope left except escape

For those of you in this world
Who seem to pass unheard
For those of us in this world
Who noticed that one word

AN INTUITION

SOMETIMES I FEEL FROM INSIDE,

THAT IM IN THE WRONG SIDE,

I SENSE THE HEAT IN THE EYES,

HOT ENOUGH TO BURN A SILENT SKIES.

MY UNCONTROLLED THOUGHTS LEAD ME,

TO THE ANGRY BEAST IN SEA,

I FIGHT AND CRY THE DEVIL INSIDE,

HOPING THE GRASS WILL BE GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE.

MY FRIENDS ARE SILENT,

THEY NEVER SEEN ME VIOLENT,

I JUST WANT TO RUNAWAY,

SO I DONT NEED TO LIVE THIS WAY ANOTHER DAY.

I CRY IN DARK

BROKEN IN HEART

WILL MY MISTAKES BE EXCUSED

FOR THE ONE I CAN BE ACCUSED....

IM SORRY TO BE A DISGRACE TO YOU...DAD..

I am the wind, not of this earth, I dont stop at anyplace,
And even if I do, I dont stay there...

I am carrying twings on my wings...
I have no home...

I'm tired
Of always being the one to fall
For once
I ask your dear god, for once
May my wounded heart receive Justice?
Why curse me?
What did I do to deserve this?
For heartbreak after heartbreak
Has left me bitter
I've lost belief if what was once so pure
Will my wounded heart ever receive Justice?
I ask you dear god
I call you
I scream to you
But all I hear in return
Is silence

I feel as though I am just a tree one of many in the forest that bleed

The pull is a need one that's deep within me

When it takes hold the crossroads or cold

Its thick in the evening just as the sun is leaving

It touches your mind with a thousand hot knives

You should shatter this place

Tear it down today and everyday

Cold skin, and tainted white linens

Breathtaking romantic gimmicks

Wrapped in lace with blood on their face

Grand mistakes, no golden grace.

Withering thoughts that decompose and rot

Now finding themselves in graves of notions

Drowning in endless thoughts and stained emotions

Dripping from my lies, is my blood dark blue and thick like glue making my heart

Barely move

Dragging me down to the deep deep red

Barely living life my youth practically dead

Grasping for life, wanting to be with the one they assume will be my "wife".

But he is not, he is the only man I want

Grooming is not condition in this relationship for the living.

It is overflowing with love not twisted mental conditions

You stare in anticipation for blood to hit the pavement, but you will be sorely mistaken.

I do not deny that our love could soon die, but I swear our friendship will live on.

You don't see that my heart ache is ignited by your judgmental gaze

I can see it in your eyes every time two wives are in your line of sight

Your not so subtle glances towards me ... But I just walk on so you don't see the weakness in my knees

All I want is for you to see that he doesn't just love my body

How he treats me like I'm the only one he wants and needs

Acting as if he is in a never ending dream

Making me feel as if I'm better then I will ever truly be.

So now I don't expect you to understand, and I'm sorry to disrupt all your plans.

But for now, with my love is where I shall stand...
