I've given you my heart
You've returned it broken. I've given you my smile You've laughed at this token. I've promised to never leave you So you left me. He promises to never be there Yet you cling to him blindly. He's smashed your world I've picked up the pieces. He's left you for another while leaving his marks on your face. I've picked you up from the ground and held you as you've cried. You say it doesn't hurt anymore You're used to his anger. But you're wrong He's not for you. He's just after your body. I'm only after your heart. I love you He doesn't. At least that's what I wanted to tell you. I walked away from the stone cold casket they had placed you in. Thinking back on that day, the time in the park. You had kissed me on the cheek and I started to tell you then. I thought about how many times you had defended him before and called it hopeless. I should've never given up on you. Maybe it woulld have been different then. Maybe this would've been our wedding instead of your funeral. Ok this poem is over 4 years old and still doesn't have a name...should I just leave that way or can someone help me come up with one? (sorry it sux as bad as it does...it's the original and from one of my last school projects) I do plan on re-writing it, as soon as I get rid of my writer's block....>.< |
two of my favorite poems
"Out, Out" The buzz-saw snarled and rattled in the yard and made dust and dropped stove-length sticks of wood, sweet-scented stuff when the breeze drew across it. And from there those the lifted eyes could count five mountain ranges one behing the other under the sunset far into Vermont. And they saw snarled and rattled, snarled and rattled, as it ran light, or had to bear a load. And nothing happened: day was all but done. Call it a day, I wish they might have said to please the boy by giving him the half hour that a boy counts so much when saved from work. His sister stood beside them in her apron to tell them "Supper." At that word, the saw, as if to prove saws knew what supper meant, leaped out at the boy's hand, or seemed to leap- he must have given the hand. However it was, Niether refused the meeting. But the hand! The boy's first outcry was a rueful laugh, as he swung toward them holding up the hand half in appeal, but half as if to keep the life from spilling. Then the boy saw all- Since he was old enough to know, big boy doing a man's work, though a child at heart- he saw all spoiled. "Dont let him cut my hand off- the doctor, when he comes. Dont let him, sister" So. But the hand was gone already. The doctor put him in the dark of ether. He lay and puffed his lips out with his breath. And then- the watcher at his pulse took fright. No one believed. They listened at his hear. Little -less-nothing! and that ended it. No more to build on there. And they, since they were not the one dead, turned to their affairs. By Robert Frost "Footprints" One night I had a dream I dreamed I was walking alonbg the beach with the Lord and across the sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints, one belonged to me and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of my life flashed before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand. I noticed that many times along the path of my life, there was only one set of footprints. I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest part of my life. This really bothered me and I questioned the Lord about it. "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you would walk with me all the way, but I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life there is only one set of of footprints. I dont understand why in the times when I needed you most, you should leave me" The Lord replied, "My precious, precious child, I love you and I would never, never leave you during your times of trial and suffering. When you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you" By Mary Stevenson And this is the poem that I wrote "The storm inside" The storm inside never calms down The wind never lets down The rain never seizes And the the sea in which I find myself in is never calm either The storm inside never calms down The winds pick up the sea and thrash it about The storm inside is never calms down The rain beats down on me, pushing me down and under the sea The storm inside never calms down The sea takes me and pulls me down as I fight to stay above the waves But the winds and rain are against me The storm inside never calms down Yet as I fight the sea, a ship comes along As I feel strong arms take hold of me and bring me onto the ship I look at my rescuer to find myself falling into brown eyes And I realize that everything will be okay, as the storm rages on. by Me! |
Alone
Alone
All alone, no one’s there Does my family even care Dying away inside Outside I hide Behind this expression I don’t belong I’m singing a different song All alone, no one’s here No one I can be near Why am I here? Just to suffer Strange, different, unique All this means is I’m a freak All alone, no one’s there By Jacquelyn V. (aka, ME) what did u think of that one???? |
Night's Death Song
The darkness of the night; The Full moon's glow; The black wolf's howl echoes. Night's Death Song is about to begin. The dark clouds enshroud the moon; The forests become ominous; The trees close in. Night's Death Song is about to begin. The black wolf's howl fades; As a low, resonating, sound takes it's place Silence fills the ears of man. Night's Death Song is about to begin. The low, resonating, sound ends And the world falls into silence agian Night's Death Song is about to begin... The wind blows gently through the trees And a shrill whistle pierces night ears The dark clouds still shroud the moon Night's Death Song has begun. The low, resonating, sound begins again Followed closely by a shrill howl The howl from the black wolf's mouth Night's Death Song has begun. Man's ears are still silent They are unable to hear Death's presence The black wolf's howl is joined By the laughter of something unholy Night's Death Song has begun. The unholyness spreads like wildfire There is no sun to burn it away For Death fears the sun's direct touch Night's Death Song has begun. Black wolf's howl Low, resonating, sounds Wind whistling through the trees. Night's Death Song has begun. But wait! One being of pure white She ventures out of the forest Night's Death Song still plays A Doe of white purity Stands tall against Death's dark sneer The dark sneer of Night's song Night's Death Song still plays The deer is a symbol A symbol of truth A symbol of hope Night's Death Song still plays What becomes of man if truth is gone? What becomes of man if hope fades? What becomes of man if Night's Death Song still plays? The doe of White seeing all She takes no notice of those there And continues her walk through the forest Night's Death Song still plays She walks between the dark trunks Around the dark presense And deeper into the throng Night's Death Song still plays The black wolf growls The sound low, and resonating Death bares his blood stained teeth Night's Death Song still plays There will be no piercing scream There will be no saving god There will be no mourning Night's Death Song is reaching its peak There will be no one there There will be no saving love There will be no other sacrifice Night's Death Song is reaching its peak There is no hope for her There is no need to quell her wants There is no other place for her to be Night's Death Song is reaching its peak There is no rain to wash away the blood There is no preventing Death's claim There is not a way to change her Night's Death Song is reaching its peak There was no discussion There were no choices There was no changing her fate She made her decision We must honor it Night's Death Song has reached its peak She chose her fate She chose to give up Hope She chose to give up Love Night's Death Song is ending She chose to show the world her strength She chose to show her peace with Death She chose to let you know her sacrifice Night's Death Song is ending She wanted you to know her love She wanted you to know her power She wanted you to see the Truth Night's Death Song is ending She wanted this She accepted this Now it's your turn Night's Death Song has ended... For now. |
The Ice slowly creeps once again
over the heart I thought i'd saved. The slow burning of the frozen water ever killing my marbled heart. What have I ever done to receive such a death? What can I ever do to earn your trust? I will allow the Ice to creep once again over my marbled heart of dark stone I have had enough of the deep longing of home I will no longer see the way others want me to be I will be myself no matter what you think The darkness has closed in from a past i long to forget due to the carelessnes of my once friend I have heard the condemning cry that you thought I'd never hear Put your ear to my heart, you'll never hear it beat I've become what i wished I'd overcome But you see me tomorrow glaring at the sun wishing once more That I was truly done. |
And if I have the chance to tell you, I'll lie.
If I lie awake at night,
Know that I think of only you. If I stare off in class, Know that I want you and only you. If I blush and walk faster in the halls, Know that it's just to avoid so I don't blow my cover. If you tell me that you want to do something over the weekend, Know that I will say "I'll think about it" even though I knew I would the second you offered. If you ask me if I want you, Know that I'll just smile sweetly and refuse to answer. If you act like a jerk because you don't know what else to do, Know that I still love you. If you ask me if you hurt me by not being with me, Know that I would never hurt you by telling you you did. If you come to me with your girlfriend and introduce her, Know that I will smile and act sweet. If you ask me later if I like her, Know that I will say I do, even though I don't. Know that I love you and would do anything for you, But if I have the chance to tell you, I'll lie. Because I all want is for you to be happy, Even if it's not with me. |
