Choked DownI am slowly killing myself
with choked-down words
and fruitless tears
dying before they can ever escape the confines of my
identity.
The scratched-out lines on the music sheets
somehow seem sweeter than the true melody.
...
Maybe this is why
so many poets committed suicide.Choked Down1 day ago in Free Verse

Fire and Ice (Poem)

Between the glimpse of lonely feathers,
Airborne to strike out from its tethers,
Stands the final mountain of courage
Between the hero and his rival.

Stifle the tension between the studious
Boys; Ice and fire collide in a furious
Snap of frozen flame—one is too cold,
But the hero is consumed in the heat.

They reflect, the most colorful of mirrors,
Red and green with passion and tremors
Of wars driven into the bloody past,
For the past does not become a hero.

The hero instead becomes his angry past,
And the rival not far ahead, shifting fast
Into the unmistakable chains of nemeses,
Clawing with his raging, lonely feathers.

Sensei, Sensei,
shall we play?
Shall we while
the hours away?

Will you be the doctor
while I play the nurse?
Shall I be the doctor
while you play the patient?

Or should we play
a different game?
Perhaps a game of madness?
A game to keep us sane?

Sensei, Sensei,
won’t you tell me, Sensei?
I fear I cannot trust
my judgment anymore.

Sensei, Sensei,
will you hold my hand?
Will you tell me of the days
when I will be able to stand
all on my own, all by myself?

Will you be lonely then,
Sensei?

Sensei, Sensei,
keep me close.
I fear the world,
the world that lives
inside of me.

What do I do,
Sensei?

Love IsLove Is

Lovers of men,
Lovers of art.
Lovers of craft,
Lovers of heart.

Love has built nations,
Felled empires,
Held people together
when everything was falling apart.

Love is the strongest force
the universe has ever seen
yet also,
the blindest,
most foolish condition
to which we submit.Love Is1 week ago in Free Verse

Yellow WallpaperThis trigger has hit me
like a sack of bricks, I can't
Stop running running but
There's nowhere to go, yeah
I ain't shown you who I am when I'm mad
And the colors start to run but I can't
Stop this trembling, this quake
Tugged in two directions like a heartbreak
Wings were made to fly and hearts to beat
But not this fast like pounding hooves
of a terrified horse, I'm not
Tough I'm not a force I'm not pretty
But this false bravado
this makeup
this song
they are my sword and shield

So many people trying to look inside of me
See who I am, she called me a firework of tragedy

Winter's seaOh, restless winter's sea

where only the One's breath

poses itself and blows still

All my dreams shatter

on your foamy waves

when the night falls

over this colorless city

And neither the placid stars

shine anymore to keep me company,

remaining motionless, muted...Winter's sea2 months ago in Free Verse

Mare d'invernoOh, irrequieto mare d'inverno

su cui soltanto il respiro dell'Unico

si posa e soffia ancora

Tutti i miei sogni s'infrangono

sulle tue onde spumose

quando la notte scende sulla città

E nemmeno le placide stelle

brillano più per tenermi compagnia,

rimanendo mute...Mare d'inverno2 months ago in Free Verse

TraumweltIch fühle ihren Atem,
ich höre ihre Stimme.
Ich will nicht mehr warten,
ihr Bild beraubt mich meiner Sinne.

Durch sie fühle ich mich lebendig,
fühle wieder Freude in meinem Leben.
Meine Gefühle so inbrünstig -
was habe ich nicht alles dafür gegeben?

Schlaftrunken wende ich mich zu ihr,
will ihr streichen durchs dunkle Haar.
Doch ihr Gesicht entschwand so schnell mir,
dann wurde es mit gewahr ...

Ein weiterer Traum entglitt meinen Fingern,
ich atme noch einmal den Duft ihrer Nähe.
Des Schlafes end gehört zu den Bezwingern,
ein neuer Tag bricht an,
während ich meinen Verlust eingestehe.
Was habe ich nur getan?Traumwelt3 months ago in Traditional Fixed Forms

wallpaper breathingI lost a sense of truth that night,
sitting among dewdrops and fairy lights
that lit up my heart but stole away my youth
(you always said you would never let yourself get old;
but there is something wonderful
in the way skin lets someone read of the majesty
and the history within us)

you told me that it was time to go and i
clutched on to feathers of a different world
stoic refusal and crying shame
I would rather die than leave the light
(or is that one and the same)

words I can barely hush out spread
over your alcohol skin, slipping
into the concave of your ribcage
trapped and resigned to a life
beside a slowing heart and rasped lungs

Ich kann dir nicht mehr sagen was mit uns passieren wird,
denn die Zeiten die wir damals hatten sind schon lang nicht mehr hier,
vielleicht klangen meine Probleme zu problematisch
oder nicht wichtig genug um sie zu bearbeiten,
ich werd schon aufatmen können ich geh nicht unter, und,
unteruns, ich hab dich immer geliebt, auch wenn nicht so wie du es tust,
abgesehn davon dass ich unmenschlich bin und dich verletze,
hab ich doch alles gegeben bis zum letzten,
doch dann kammst du mit der Scheiße an, was soll das du warst doch Schuld,
seh es doch ein, bitte komm zur vernunft,
denn ich habs dochProphezeiung4 months ago in Songs & Lyrics

IV - Lucifer's Tears

The light is coming towards me
I thought it was an answer from the almighty
I reach for the warm embrace
No...... I fall in disgrace!

Darkness rises around me
Fire appears beneath
The light dissipates into the holy fire
And then he rose... the one who broke all my desires

The damned traveller:

So, it was you who was behind all my misery
Because of you I sent myself to the City of Sin
I ran through the haunting darkness of Purgatory
And I endure the ancient beasts who sought to take me

Lucifer:

Yes... and you've walked quite the distance on this road
I wonder, how much pain was inflected on you soul

I don't like our room a bitmost nights i do not
care what happens to you;
"most" is becoming "all"
by the weeks.

i feel like i'm tearing
off wallpaper,
the way i've stopped romanticizing
the things you put into your
body,
the way i've learned (am still
learning) to care for myself.

and that: i can go anywhere, i will
go anywhere, i will be gone in a few
months and maybe i will see you on
the street but it's
unlikely.
(i've done the calculations and can
you believe it's a 1 in 10,000 chance?
that's not very unlikely but
i can manage.)

people are not evil.
well, some are.
but you aren't, it was just a bad time
for everyone.

Im Namen HelsVorbei an der Pförtnerin Modgud,
Über die Brücke Gjallarbru.
Unter mir fließt „Der Brausende",
Sein Tosen lässt mir keine Ruh.

Vorbei an Helheims Wächterhund,
Dem vieräugigen Garm.
Zwar lässt er alle Toten rein,
Doch nur mich auch wieder fahren.

Durch Helheims Tore ziehen wir,
Zu der Göttin teils tot teils lebendig.
Die Seelen wimmern vor Angst,
Sie wissen, sie gehören ihr ewig.

Ich befreie das Antlitz der Erde,
Von den Menschen,
Die sie zerstören.
Auf das die Welt schöner werde,
Kommt mit mir ihr wertlosen Seelen.

Überbringer der Seelen bin ich,
Im Namen Hels.
Ihre wertlosen Leben nehm ich,
Im Namen Hels.

Ich bin krank, mein Kopf tut weh,
mein Herz sticht und ich kann mit keinem drüber reden,
wer weiß was passiert ich will nicht zum Arzt,
will auch nicht wirklich dass ihr euch sorgen macht,
kann nicht essen denn ich hab keinen Hunger,
bemerk ich Fehler zieh ich mich schon selber runter,
mirs schlecht was sollts ich muss heut aufstehn
knicke um ich zitter denn mir tut alles weh,
doch wenn ichs jemandem erzähle was bringt mir das
du sagst du kannst mir nicht helfen wieso hast du dann gefragt,
aus Nettigkeit? oh man, sparr dir das,
denn genau sowas hat mich doch erst krank gemacht,

Day 20/30 - Your FearsYour Fears

Spiders, crawling
People, falling
Friends, crying
Family, dying

Losing those I love
And creepers
Crawling on me in the night

Flames engulfing me
My surroundings
Water, invading my lungs
Metal, ripping through my flesh

Failing those who count on me
Not meeting the expectations held of me

Day 18/30 - A Problem You've HadA Problem You've Had

Coping
With being alone
In this big
Mostly empty and quiet
House
Being motivated enough
To get out of bed
On my days off
When I'm at home
All alone
With nowhere to go
Nothing to do
And no one
To see
Or be with

I've never been very good
At being
On my ownDay 18/30 - A Problem You've Had7 months ago in Free Verse

Edge of LifeBeyond the glass
The skies cried rain
But I grinned and ran
I saw no pain

Grab my rain jacket,
Skip out the door
I see colors everywhere
Monotone nevermore

I started walking
On what I thought to be
A sidewalk but then
I was walking along a sea

This is the sea called life
And I'm going to run on the end
The waves will crash over me
But I'll never break or bend
Maybe I'm a rebel inside my rib cage
And I'm looking for danger
But it's just whatever and
All I'm seeing is adventure

I stop along the side
And twirl around in glee
I spray water everywhere
For all the world to see

On my left is darkness
On my right is light

Eternally alone

I will remain eternally alone,

sitting here in the dark

crackling fire in the frozen night

waiting for the coming of a shadow's hero

and a soft, silent kiss scented of rain

golden seal of a never broken promiseEternally alone8 months ago in Free Verse

Stains of the Soul

The tears sting
as the heart pangs,

The heavy
pressure weighing me down,

Bogging down my
mind farther then before,

I bear the
gravity, in isolation,

Words dying at my
lips as I desperately gasp for air,

Frustration
building up inside as the war wages on,

On the inside I
scream,

For some relief
from this constant malady,

Some sign that
the silver lining I swear I see approaches,

Some other
foreshadowing,

then the stains
down my cheeksStains of the Soul9 months ago in Free Verse
