The Song/Poem/Writing Thread - Part 2

Recommended Posts

@: Linney: Your song was great! It reminded me of suicide a bit (i'm weird... I know, and i looked at it from that context).

 

here's a song I wrote, and it kinda sucks... oh well :P

 

 

 

 

 

Incomplete

 

 

Suffering in silence as the door is halfway closed

Sitting in the nothing, I feel my heart go sore

I miss seeing your smile

I miss taking in your words

 

And though the days pass

Faster, the clock ticks by

I find myself wishing they did not

When you were here, every moment would count

 

 

I feel so hopeless now

Incomplete without you,

you’re my sky

I need proof that you have been with me all along

Before my heart sinks into a saddened song

Again…

 

And if you were here, then I’m sure you’d know

That these smiles are just there for show

Because I don’t show my weakness, though they see it all

As if I’m made out of glass

they see right through

 

And I’m here, looking at photographs

In the night, that mirrors my life

You’re my light, snuffed out for now

I need you so much...

 

And I feel so hopeless now

Incomplete without you,

you’re my sky

I need proof that you have been with me all along

Before my heart sinks into a saddened song

Again…

 

Breathe into my lungs

That burn like they had never before

No matter how much I try

I can’t numb myself no more

Please come back to me,

You’re everything I adore

And it hurts, so…

you dont have to say you love me

for me to understand

i always know it forever and ever

cause my heart is in your hand

 

you're more than my best friend

You're the one who matters most

I'll be here when you need me

when your at your very lowest because

 

i love you

i want you to know that quite simply

i love you

you mean more to me than anyone

i love you

I'll never ever leave your side because

I love you

 

 

 

If your heart gets broke,

im going to be there

If you're crying real hard,

im going to be there,

If you've got no-one left,

Im going to be there,

Because i'll never give up,

i'm going to be there

 

I love you

I'll forever tell you that

i love you

I mean every single word and i

i love you

No-one will ever replace you

because forever, and ever

i love you

 

 

you're the best thing,

The best thing thats ever happened

and i'll never ever find

a better thing, a better thing than you.

 

These words are not enough,

For me to really explain

These three words from me to you

i tell you this in vain

 

I love you

 

I love you

 

i love you

 

i love you

^ Thats so sweet Ross. I love it.

Everyone writes beautifully on here. Its a breath of fresh air.

 

Something I wrote just now. A storm randomly came in and I felt inspired.

 

April Showers

 

The rain tapped hard against the roof above her head. In the darkness she sat. Listening. Thinking. It was nights like this that she thought the hardest. With the thunder rumbling in the distance.

 

Despite the soothing mummer of nature's soundtrack, the girl could not sleep. The drops of water hitting the shingles above her normally were a perfect lullaby, but tonight her thoughts races. They hindered her from finding rest.

 

If she had her way, she would be outside, soaking herself and soaking in the sudden spring rain. However, she was trapped inside, knowing that if she stood in the cold downpour, she would be sick in no time.

 

She longed to be drenched in the torrent. Encompassed by the cold air. Grazed by the true beginning of spring. Consumed by the April showers that would bring life to the barren ground.

 

She wanted to be part of that natural way. Unhindered by human construct.

 

But that was her problem. Her whole life was human construct. It revolved around what was known as society. What was known as proper.

 

There was no freedom. No place to lay her inhibitions aside. None at all.

 

The only place she would find that would be in the rain. The rain that she was not allowed to touch.

oh sorry, were you speaking

i couldn't care les if you were talking

if you're bitching about your last disaster

or stabbing knives into my spine

so no, thanks, it's fine

i'll get myself back home tonight

 

don't worry about it, it's fine now

you're the last thing on my mind, now

you were never worth my time back then

and i swear you're not worth it now

 

so sorry if i don't like the way you dress or how you talk

'cause you speak like a tramp and dress like a whore

no i don't think my nails can dig in anymore

than they already have

oh what a delightful scar to have;

ones of jokes gone far too far

 

so don't worry about it, i'm fine

you're the last thing on my mind

you were never worth my time back then

and i swear you're not worth it now

 

well, tell me

did he still love you with that black eye

a trophey has never shone so darkly

so tell me

did he still love you with your bruised hands

and the way your eyes can't meet mine

(that's what i thought).

this thread needs to become as active as it once was, live thread, liiiive !

 

 

i've been walking these streets

for some time now

so where have you been ?

as they pass me by

those rose-tinted glasses

won't see a thing

won't you let me in ?

i missed you, i promise

i promised i'd miss you

 

explain it to the starlight

that don't mean anything anymore

the silence is here

and it outspoke us all

i can say i tried, with my hands tied

and my back right at the wall

the moon outshone us all

but i tried, i promise

i tried to promise

 

jump over the fences

hit the floor, hit my jaw

and run, out run everyone

threaten the sky

that got us this far - too close ?

closer than i'd ever thought possible

so run once more

the signs that say we'll never make it

we'll ignore, i promise

i promised it all.

I wrote this in detention, it doesn’t make much sense… It’s supposed to be screamed through most parts.

 

Time Flow Breaks Another Memory

 

Digging into my soul

I’m slowly letting go (of everything)

Change is in my heart

But I can’t change what is needed

If everything means something

Then I’m not sure I can change

 

God blisters, then I fall

Waiting forever

I fall into the dark waiting

Only in likeness I fall

Beckoning deceit, I fall once more

 

See where our hearts will lead

All across the deadened sea

I’m waiting for it now

Waiting for it now

Waiting for it now

 

Oh, the things that are broken

Installs a secret in my brain

Allow me to shine away

All I got is all I can do, now

Waiting for myself I divide, waiting for the truth

And that’s all I should need

Quarantine my dreams

And leave me here to breathe

Only in this life

 

 

Digging into my soul

I’m slowly letting go (of everything)

And I will forecast this sin forever

With nothing to follow

Have Them On My Side

 

As you stand there in your silence

With intention in your mind

I was finding way to leave you

By means of you behind

And your matter isn't my concern

As I watched you grow and burn

 

Funny how you can hate us

When you have no more to learn

 

And have them stand with smiles on for me

And let them have pity's pride

And then let their hardened hearts be

And then have them on my side

Because every time

My heart asks you

You turn away

From all things true

The lies won't ever

Leave you

 

I know you welcome any way

So you can finally go and say

That none of us accepted you

But all that lives with truth is true

You care too much about other eyes

You care too much about your face

All so much you sold your soul

So much you prostitute your place

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kinda strange.

Strangers on the subway

 

I feel you take my hand in yours.

I want to look at you.But I find that I can't.

So,I wait for you to leave.I know you will.

Like everyone you will too.

Then I feel something.Strange lips touching mine.

A kiss.Your kiss.Now I look...

In sad brown eyes I see another lost soul.

Do you know me?No.

Do I know you.No.

But we see each other.

Now our lips part as we come to a stop.

I watch you stand up.Then you walk away.

Now someone new sits beside me.

They smile and I wonder ,are they actually there?

Yes.

For the first time in a long time there is someone there.

And as I move underground toward an unknown destination.

I am not alone

It's been far too long since I've written something....

 

 

Before it’s too late

 

Blustering was never my intention.

We once were joyous but now there’s contravention.

Being used,

Abused, when I had given you support.

Now it’s me who needs to be rescued.

 

But my signal flag is non existent.

 

It’s like being in a parallel world

Your old friends are different from before.

Sitting by the phone, not a ringing to be heard.

I guess it’s me who will make the effort.

 

5 minute conversations is all that we will ever have

Who knows where our childhood went?

Maybe we’ll walk past each other on the street when we are older

Would you know it’s me?

 

I’m guessing no.

 

It’s sad to see our longing dreams are not even close to a reality.

They’re just dreams.

Only for closed eyes to somehow see.

Only dreams.

 

But nightmares will replace them soon.

Please change before it’s too late.

That is awesome.I love it!

 

 

 

 

this is a song.

 

Always...Love

 

 

Do you remember me?

Do you recall my face

or any past embrace we shared?

 

When we were still sixteen,

I was your closest friend .

I held tight to your hand I swear.

 

CHORUS

 

So let me take you now and tell you how

I have always loved you.

For even when you fell apart and broke my heart

I did always love you.

 

Are you who you used to be?

Or did you fall away

in every drunk mistake of then.

 

Will you return to me?

Come home you weary soul.

You'll never be alone again.

 

SECOND CHORUS

 

Because I'll take you now and tell you how

I have always loved you.

For even when you fell apart and broke my heart

I did always love you.

 

Please love remember me...

Don't let me fade away...

From all your memories...

I just need you to say...

 

 

THIRD CHORUS

 

"I want to take you now and tell you how

I have always loved you.

For even when I fell apart and broke your heart

I did always love you.

Of What Liars We’ve Become

 

I’m holding back

But I can’t retain the shiver

Each breath is a nuisance

But I seem to retain

Every thought is my witness, but I’ll die in the deceit

Where is my sense, where is your pride?

Savage my guilt; make me angry

Tell me where I should belong

Or if I’m in it for something else

 

Save me from myself

Forget me not, or I will convey myself in misery

I’m not yet alone, but forgiven unto myself

One more thought and broken, or still mistaken

Save me for one last time, at least

 

Break me apart and give me grief

But I cannot feel your pain, anguish

What could be better than this, dark?

I’ll tell you what you need to know, but not everything

Have I told you enough truth?

Take me to hell and just hate

Either way you fuck me up with your hate

Damn everything you see

 

I will not follow see, I cannot see hate

Only you are in my eyes

I gave it away and fell in between

No sense of anger

Because I feel too much for you

^^^^^

 

You've really inspired me to write about an emotion I've felt a lot these days ....

 

 

 

It Takes One To Know One

 

Is this a jealous healing

Or can I throw it all away

Is it something else you're stealing

Or can you show me all you say

Yes you can give me something

But I know where you stand

You'll give me blessings I know

But you'll take with your other hand

 

Is it so they say you hate me

Or are you lying again

Is it so you take me

In as a dying friend

 

We know that all the liars

Have made their way again

Through all of our traps and fires

They've made their way again

How do they know I'm lying

How does my word get out

Is it trust I'm trusting?

Is it trust, That need be learned about?

 

I know there's something wrong with you

Because there's things wrong in me

Somewhere you view me as a stranger

Somewhere you view me as your friend

But all I wanted was for you not to

Save for me all your anger

And I wanted to be with you until the end

 

I guess we can't have that, But who really cares

We're lessons learned, Friendships burned

Successful traps, In tomorrow's stares

Ok, before you read it and go "Oh, another vampire story", this story is not about vampires. They are in my story, and are a main part, but the story doesn't revolve around them. With that said, read read read please.

Chapter One: Encounters With Vampires

I held back my scream as I saw the predators’ eyes before me. He smiled, scarlet red blood dripping down the corners of his mouth. My body shivered as he crept closer, and closer; blood thirsty eyes on its prey. Flashbacks came to me. They were not my own. I saw a young blonde haired boy playing in the dark night, only to be attacked. He did not die though. Another one came. The blonde boy was older and in love with a girl. She was pretty. Deep blue eyes and bouncing red curls. It couldn’t be… She chuckled as he whispered in her ear. In another, he was sitting by the young girls’ death bed. She was pale, and there was sweat along her brow. The boy was begging and pleading for her not to die, but she was gone… The last flashback came. This time, the boy was being bitten, and he was in intense pain, I closed my eyes, but I could still see the image.

“My love my Mae.” He cooed to me. “You’re alive.”

“I’m not… n-no, I-I…” I was frightened by the man in front of me.

“My love, do not be frightened. I have found you; you will be safe now with me.” The boy said, creeping closer, and closer. “You are safe now that we are together.” He smiled, reaching out his long slender hand.

“I don’t know you…. I’m not even from here.” I spoke, trying (and failing) to sound brave.

“It is I your love, Theodore Thomas.” Theodore smiled as he moved even closer. He stood about two feet ahead of me.

He thought I was the girl in his flashbacks. My body shook in fright. I stepped back three steps.

“Please stop, I promise I will not harm you my dear Mae. I love you.” He reached his hand to me, which made me move back even further. “I will not hurt you Mae.”

“You think I’m her… the girl in your memories?” I asked, trying to not think about the memories. Yet even more came.

Tears filled my eyes, as I saw the love Theodore had for Mae. I had never seen a love so strong in my life. When I saw the memory of her dying, I couldn’t help but sob. What was happening? It was like I could feel that love in my bones, through out my whole entire body. I really was her, just in a different life. How could this be?

“I’m so sorry she is gone.” I said wiping the tears away that were flowing out of my eyes. “I’m so sorry I’m not her.”’

His soft features suddenly turned dark, and cold. His messy blond hair started to shake. I made him angry, and from the looks of it, that was not good.

“Fine then, if you are not her, I have no business with you.” Theodore rushed to me and started for my shirt. He gripped it tightly, and started to pull me up.

“Theodore.” I heard someone call. “Put her down.” The deep voice said from behind me.

Theodore hesitated before setting me back on my feet. I gasped in relief. “Leave.” The man said. Since I thought he was talking to me, I stepped backwards. “No, no not you miss. I was talking to the boy who was about to murder you.”

“Oh.” Was all I had managed to say.

Theodore was gone before I knew it.

I had another memory come into my head. This one was different. Peaceful in a sort of way I had never seen before. I saw a young man holding his daughter; she was the most beautiful baby I had ever seen. Her dark blue eyes stood out against the yellow skin. The man smiled in delight as his baby girl grabbed his finger. The memory fast forwarded to when the girl was five years old. She was even more beautiful than when she was a baby, but she was sad, then I realized her father wasn’t in the room with her; he was outside of the house, looking in. This was the saddest one. His memory went even further to show his daughter older, becoming powerful. He had made her what she was.

“Adelle…” He whispered to her as she lay in pain.

I shook my head trying to get back to reality.

“Thank you,” I whispered to the man. “Very much”

“What is your name Miss?” He asked me politely, with a smile on his face.

“M- Mia. My name is Mia.” I managed to get out.

“What are you doing out here Mia, its dark, and who knows what lures in these forests.”

“I’m just looking for a place to sleep, I have nowhere to go. Now who are you?” I asked, curious, and half- scared that he was going to kidnap, and murder me.

“Forgive me, my name is Everett.” He smiled. “Just one more question, I couldn’t help but notice the expression on your face. Are you one of the Keepers?” Everett asked me.

“A Keeper, I don’t know what a Keeper is.” I admitted. “I’m not educated on the world outside of the Bible; my mother fed me the Bible by the spoon. She called me ‘Demon child’ and tried to get me to change my ways. I’m skeptical about the whole Bible thing.” I admitted, not knowing why I was telling the truth to an absolute stranger, who in all honesty scared the living crap out of me.

“Why are you skeptical?” He asked me, confused obviously.

“I see things, not very Christian- like.” I said, speaking my opinion.

“That’s a fairly good reason. You know, you’re not the only one who see’s things as you say.” Everett

“Do you?” I asked him, now curious.

“No, no not me, there are five others. Just like you and I think you are meant to see them.” Everett spoke to me.

“Oh… people like me.” I said, still confused.

“Let me give you a room for the night. You shouldn’t be out here all alone. Who now’s what or who is out here” William looked around.

“You mean like you? You don’t seem human, what does that make you?” I asked.

He chuckled and said, “I’m a vampire, fangs and all.” He put his arms out, and examined his self, feet up.

“Ah, that explains it then, out at night hunting humans. It must also explain the way I am about to die.” I said sheepishly.

Everett shook his head. “You are honestly one of the most important people on this earth, to kill you… It’s a terrible thing. My kind wouldn’t forgive me. The whole Underground World would shun my kind for killing you. So now, you are not going to die.”

“The Underground World,” I asked confused yet again. “What?”

“It’s the world hidden from the human one,” He said, “Made of more creatures than you could imagine, It’s astonishing if you think about it. As I was saying before, we should get you to our coven so you can have a place to sleep for the night.”

I didn’t say anything.

“And don’t be afraid, none of us will…” He was suddenly cut off by Theodore, who was shouting at us.

“Everett! Everett!” Theodore was shouting. “Wolves, a pack of wolves are after us!”

“Take Mia,” Everett said lightly pulling my arm, and leading me to Theodore, who was ten feet from us. “Take her back to the coven. I’ll fend them off.” Everett left before I could blink.

Theodore took my right wrist and pulled me along. To where, I did not know.

“Wh- what’s g-going on?” I managed to ask him. This was all so confusing.

“Nothing, just come with me.” Theodore said to me as we raced along.

“Tell me what’s going on now Theodore. I want to know, and if you don’t tell me, I’m not going with you.”

Theodore stopped us and sighed. He then looked at me, and put his hands on my shoulders. “Ok, Mia listen to me closely to me.”
