Ace Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 I wrote a kind of rant blog. I'm posting it cause i want every one to see it..... here it is: Do You know that feeling when it seems that you have found yourself at the peak of right where you want yourself to be? Then you fall. Down to a painful, spiraling, & swirling death. It’s pretty hard to be normal. I know i’m too akward. Most black teens where I am worship rap & R&B. (Not saying they all do, and i mean no offense.) And I (being an akward black teen) rock out to alternative rock bands, metal, pop, and a bit more. And, I’m proud. they call me oreo. (black on the outside, white on the inside.) and i disagree. (no offence to anyone.) I’m not racist against my own race or any one elses, I’m just myself. If you read thanks, Breana. <3’s Everyone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
777 Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 Ace, That's the way. ^ As you seen in the rep thing. Yeah its personal but it's not decorated with a skeleton or structure of anything creative or clever, I just wanted to do something to test out mah cash rhymes Lies, Cries and everything in between Is something you could never apply Into your thoughts so keen You were never around to share vanity When I was down and so beaten Forced to move my mind outside sanity The fire it dances for my peace Just like the moon off the water Helping me not to be reminded of anything Visions of the cross Trying to surpass the leaders boss When I tried to make the right decisions As I juggled our loss Well can you tell me I'm so strange When it is you being hated As no one understands you Do you see change nearing closer in the range? Yes that's another rant for me to you My one and only, My one miss lonely Could you please make me a cup of tea Let's have us sit And trade words Let's have it just you and me because The world beyond the wall Never seemed so short With us so tall In a view of importance I've searched and I found I knocked and one answered I asked and again I was answered But knowledge never came to me As I was busy being born At the same time I was busy dying Crying, Lying soaring and flying In the sky of wisdom The smarter I got The more inept I realized I am.

paperhearts63 Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Here are some poems/lyrics I've written, please read and comment, thanks! A Product Of A Rainy California Night Turn on the radio, another melancholy tune I’m sober for now, but that’ll be changing soon As outside the world is drenched, concealing the unwanted and the unseen Watch as your ideals wash away Hey there insomnia It seems there’s some unfinished business at hand I’ve tried to escape you, but tonight I just can’t Because we’re prisoners of our own illusions And I’m chained to this bed As everything we believed in comes pouring down Two picture perfect lovers Gloved hands clasped together As quickly as they appear they fade away And I’ve opened a window to let in the rain In due time this paper will be soaked but the meaning won’t have changed No, as the ink bleeds the words remain the same Hey there insomnia It seems there’s some unfinished business at hand I’ve tried to escape you, but tonight I just can’t Because we’re prisoners of our own illusions And I’m chained to this bed As everything we believed in comes pouring down Where did our innocence get carried off to? Somewhere in between the swirl of lights it got lost Like the old worn out toys given up to the falling rain Because they no longer matter No, tonight nothing matters Hey there insomnia It seems there’s some unfinished business at hand I’ve tried to escape you, but tonight I just can’t Because we’re prisoners of our own illusions And I’m chained to this bed As everything we believed in comes pouring down Finding Yesterday The wind dies down over your old apartment Carrying with it the last seeds of innocence We're sitting on the steps watching the cars glide over the pavement A common situation- But today something feels different Tonight- We'll find relief in broken bottles And burnt out cigarette buds As I try to push away these preconceived notions And tell myself we're not like the other ones As night consumes the last shreds of sunlight I wonder what this is supposed to feel like It appears that I'm watching myself from a distance Playing back these images in black and white Tonight- We'll find relief in broken bottles And burnt out cigarette buds As I try to push away these preconceived notions And tell myself we're not like the other ones Bursts of passion over like sparks above the ocean I try to sort out these scattered thoughts, but the meaning got lost in the process And as this body hits the sheets and I surrender myself to the darkness I remember those wild flowers crushed on the freeway Heart In The Sand Before it starts it’s already over And we’re left longing for so much more More then the empty thoughts that lead to empty words More then the raindrops that evaporate before they’re fully formed Today I drew a heart in the sand And when the tide rolled in it washed it away Leaving not a single trace to be found How come nothing in this life ever stays? Soon tomorrow will begin and today will be Just a memory not worth remembering When the sun refuses to shine and night sets in The day’s events will be erased as if they never existed Today I drew a heart in the sand And when the tide rolled in it washed it away Leaving not a single trace to be found How come nothing in this life ever stays? We lay in the arms of forever Aware that in a second it will all be gone And the desires we held so important Won’t mean so much, no they don’t mean so much anymore Today I drew a heart in the sand And when the tide rolled in it washed it away Leaving not a single trace to be found How come nothing in this life ever stays? Hope City We cross each other's paths on a gloomy day Two wandering souls who've somehow lost our way We're stopped by the conditions of the failing weather If we're alone we might as well be alone together The falling rain begins to soak the pavement As the tears run down our swollen faces And the poems you've written about imaginary places Begin to come alive as we're drenched down to our laces We find ourselves in the eyes of the unknown As we realize the love the storm has shown And when the sun comes out and showers the sky in a million colors We discover in each other the answers we've always wondered The Words She Said Based on a true story In a little park on a sunny day Two people walk down a narrow chapel hallway They were both so young Two crazy kids in love No one thought they would last very long But there they stood, out to prove the nonbelievers wrong They sealed their vows with a kiss and a ring Neither knowing what the future would bring For years they struggled to get by each day Barely able to get the bills paid But they had their love to get them through At least they thought that was true Then one day he came home from work and found the note And he tearfully read the last words she wrote You’ve touched my life in more ways then I thought a person could You believed in us when no one else would You were by my side when things got rough But sometimes even true love is not enough This world is just so harsh and cold Someday you’ll understand why I had to go Time went on but the pain stayed the same To him it felt like the end had came He tried to put the past behind But the words she said kept going through his mind You’ve touched my life in more ways then I thought a person could You believed in us when no one else would You were by my side even when things got rough But sometimes even true love is not enough This world is just so harsh and cold Someday you’ll understand why I had to go In a little park on a sunny day An old man walks to a forgotten grave He kneels down and drops his head And engraved in stone were the words that read You’ve touched my life in more ways then I thought a person could You believed in us when no one else would You were by my side even when things got rough But sometimes even true love is not enough This world is just so harsh and cold Someday you’ll understand why I had to go 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STOPthissong! Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 This is what boredom gives me. I wouldn't really call it a song tbh...meh. Piling dust. I wander down the street I thought I had forgotten. The chalk marks are fading just like the memory of your once friendly face. The old days must be here, but hiding in the cracks in the pavements. Dust gathers in those corners, its such a shame. A shame that the sun refuses to meet the eyes of tattered pasts. they're locked away in the shadows. You drove too fast. You changed our lives. the life I do not recognize anymore. The cars will crash. the debris will rest. And all will be soon forgotten.

Jorgi Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 i am kicking and screaming my way out of a retarded writer's block. so it sucks. but i'm so bored and have to start again somewhere. or something. i've had my head in the clouds for far too long they say it came right out of the blue and knocked me right out of the blue sky where i fell, far too far, to fall at your feet. i wouldn't say i'm complete- i miss the sound of their voices but they tell me how i'm much better now and they tell me how i'm making them proud but no one can fall that hard without being broken so i'll keep my mind open and my head up i'll look their way and stare them in the eye i'll look right their way and say a witty reply about how they've lost weight and i've lost my way. i wouldn't say i regret this but i was doing fine without you.

Linney Posted August 25, 2009 Report Share Posted August 25, 2009 wow that's really good, I love the imagery Christina, those lyrics you posted on the previous page, do they have melodies? wondering especially if "a product of a rainy california night" has a melody, because I read it while having my guitar out, and I kinda come up with a melody to it..

hubabalou Posted September 4, 2009 Report Share Posted September 4, 2009 We had to write poems for writing class. I actually like mine quite a bit. Hushed and Hidden Hushed and hidden, sits the owl, Awake, high in the foliage of the night, while others rest peacefully, waiting for the morning dawn. It’s alert eyes graze the landscape, waiting for the right moment, the opportunity to swoop down and catch its pray. But I, in the darkness of the night, only contemplate. I wait, but never go. Though my eyes are awake and my mind races, I never find the perfect place, the perfect thought, the perfect catch. So I too sit, hushed and hidden, searching. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jorgi Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 oh who knows anymore. he feels like love and he feels like home (if he's where my heart is) i watched my home fall apart, these dreams fall apart, but he sounded like he spoke the truth and he sounded a lot like you when he said my name, so who's to blame well i can't remember the last time i listened, to a single thing you said and your words jumbled up in my head, when i did, anyway, so save your breath don't say a word, they say in death, you save the world but i've never tried and i stopped living a long time ago so never mind i said i hate you but it got stuck in my teeth i never believed anything i told myself anyway i trusted the sunlight but got stuck on belief i'll never go anywhere i can't reach with my feet keep myself on the ground, keep my eyes on the ground, but i listen you felt like love when i loved you, you felt like enough when i left you, you sounded so much like love when i heard you.

hubabalou Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Oooh, Faith, that good! It sounds eerie and awesome! Faith, that's awesome! I like it so much Faith! =) Thanks y'all. This is something I just wrote. Its kinda stupid, but I figured I'd share. Introduction. A normal interaction, of course, but there is something warm in the handshake. Blink. A slight look left where eyes meet, for only seconds, but they met nonetheless. Stutter. Awkward conversation, now, hope that the next time will be less rehearsed. Smile. Thoughts of tomorrow invade, where things are natural and effortless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thoughts of tomorrow invade, where things are natural and effortless. actually stoked on that, hah, that's rad ! -- i'll look back on this and chalk it up to experience, to growing up; to finding love but i'll still miss you then like i miss you now when i figure it out, i'll let you know- i promised, at least, a while ago at least i thought i did i'll hold myself to it and hold you through it i'll talk us through this so it won't hurt so much. i never needed reminding i was doing just fine at forgetting all about you; to regretting all about you or so i said to those that asked it finished to fast to bother saying goodbye, i lied, i know, when i left i said i'd be back soon- but my life began without you i ran right through without you i've told you all this and you tried to listen but you never heard the things that mattered i never said the things that mattered and this is how we got here.

Wildman Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 ^ Wow, that's phenomenal! I wrote this during math. I titled it after an Ocean is Theory lyric: Don't Regret, Embrace The Day Give me another reason Tell me one last time I need to feel your energy Because I'm too fatigued to breathe And its all to quiet to be alone See me, with your calming vision And let me breathe as I continue to fall Fall into your arms And let me pray for you But its all too hard My eyes are to blind to see How much you mean to me I fall apart just as much as I piece myself together Just to know how I feel How I feel How I know to scream your name Scream your name Oh, I cant, I cant see no more See your face, with an opened door I love you and I cant choose Choose my way into your heart I need to feel forgiven I felt a little religious when I wrote this....
