Poetry
I'm a writer, yes, but I'm not a very good poet. However, there are a few poems that I've written that I'm rather fond of, and these have followed me from website to website, with very few additions. As of this website, Sanctuary, these poems have weathered 5 different personal sites of mine, plus a collective poetry site a friend created a long time ago. Why break tradition? ^_^You're just another victim of my love
A casualty of war
All's fair in this game
One night stand
Wham, bam, thank you, man
Ain't just for the boys no more
I don't give my heart
I play the field
Call me whatever you want
I don't give my soul
It's mine personally
Just get over here
So I can take what I need
You're just another victim of my love
A casualty of love and war
Hook up with me
Come along for the ride
But don't stand in my way no more
Spell
I'm under your spell
The light in your blue eyes
Reflect a thousand summer skies
You know I'd go through hell
Just to be with you
There's nothing i wouldn't do
For you
Cryptic
All is lost
All is faith
Faith is gone
So what you say?
Unseen terrors drift aside
Forming shadows in the night
Fighting eyes fly in the dawn
From the eyes the power's drawn
Icy lightning; watch it pass
Across the soul of Isis' draft
Shades of grey in black and white
Making way for blurry sight
A hunter's eyes mercilessly dark
Leery watching target's mark
Stoney surface through the thick
Enter midnight; mercy's pick.
Cosmo
She thinks to look pretty
Cause she's read in magazines
That guys like girls with minds
Who're into history and literature and stuff
So she grabs a philosophy textbook
Puts on glasses and her hair in a bun
And goes to a café around the corner
Where all the college boys are
She pretends that she cares
About Voltaire
When all that's really on her mind
Is last month's Cosmo
Vengance
I'll make you bleed
I'll make you pay
All this pain I feel inside
It's my fault
Had to do it my way
Now there's nowhere left to hide
How could I fight something so strong?
Even if it could be wrong
All this rage I feel inside
Now there's nowhere left for you to hide
Cut
My heart won't heal
From a wound I no longer feel
This jagged blade across my skin
The only thing that's real
Make me hurt
Make me feel somehow
You can't save me now
Leave me to my solitude
And steel
Watching my blood run
Wishing it was done
Let me go
Fall back into my world
I can't escape
This nightmare,
There's no give-just take
Strip me down
Rip out my heart
Until there's nothing left
Make me hurt
I deserve this pain
Seeping from my vein
I can't stand this waste that is
My life
Sacrificed for me
So that I could be
Should have left me by myself
Lost in my world
Cold
Stoney gaze
Steeley eyes
Shed a tear
Someone dies
Frozen heart
Outwordly cold
Shed a tear
Feeling so old
Close your eyes
Shield from the world
Walls are crumbling
Plans unfurled
Don't wanna feel
Away from the pain
It's the cost of being human
Prayer of a Fallen Angel
Save me
won't you save me?
Save me
From myself
Oh, Lord, please hear this plea
Though I'm not sure if you hear me
I haven't spoken to you
In so long
Oh, God, please give me a hand
There are some things that I don't understand
And I need your help right now
To be strong
These tears, falling from me
I don't cry ordinarily
But this wound within my soul
A gaping, gouging hole
Fills me with pain
I can't take the strain
Now I'm desperate for relief
Save me
won't you save me?
Save me
From myself
The blade is tempting my wrist
I don't think I can handle this
It's been so lonely here
With him gone
There's nothing here left to grasp
And I know that it's too much to ask
So much I risked for this love
Vengeance from above
Deceptions and lies
With wings I once flied
Released and sentenced to die
So aid me
won't you save me?
Save me
From myself
Wipe away my tears
Soothe away my fears
Kneeling I cry
Please God let me die
Unite me once again
With my love
Gothic Ballerina
She's got a pierced nose
And three tattoos
Long black hair and
White makeup, too
She only wears black
It fits her mood
She's got a 'Don't-mess-with-me'
Attitude
And she's not
The kind of girl
You would look at and think:
"That girl was blessed with an angel's feet"
But that all changes
When she dances
In a black leotard
Across the stage
She twists and turns and
Stretches her legs
She never gets tired
She could go for days
So beautiful
That's what everyone says
And the look
On her face
An expression serene
She's as happy as she's ever been
A true vision
When she dances
But eventually
The song comes to an end
And she loses her wings
Falls back into her skin
The light in her eyes
Just fades away
Gets drawn back into her heart
For another day
And she slips
Out of sight
In shadows by the wall
Where nobody can see her
At all
And she waits there
For more chances
To see the world
When she dances
Rakuen
I
In you I found my paradise
My something worth everything
I've been restless and spent my life
Aimlessly searching, wandering
Always willing to die for nothing
In you I've found my something
Something to die for
II
In you I found my paradise
My happy-ever-after
I've always been lonely and terrified
Hungry for something that I'd missed
Never willing to bleed for anything
With you by my side there's something
Something to die for
III
In this I found my paradise
My something to protect
I never thought I'd ever find
Something I'd care for, ever miss
Too afraid to die for anyone
Now for them I've found something
Something I'll die for
IV
Now I found my paradise
My happiness on earth
I'm content to give my life
And so I will keep my promise
Willing to give my life for anyone
Now I found that something
Something I'm dying for
X
Here we found our paradise
Our rest, our rakuen
A beautiful and blissful fight
Something to end and to begin
Forever we've been searching
Now we're finished searching
Now we've found that something
Something We've died for
