what just happened ... will never happen again .
your hands start to tremble; the sink is cold .
you tell yourself you are strong; you are bold .
don't look in the mirror and stare .
this isn't right ... this isn't fair .
don't think about it too much, or you'll go insane .
tears and blood make their way down the drain .
what just happened ... to me ?
why do you feel so gross and dirty ?
feeling so worthless and wasted .
so unloved , abandoned, and tasted .
having given them everything, every part .
why did they turn, and break your heart ?
shattering every piece, leave you broken .

My Lonely LoveWipe off your tearsMy Lonely Love11 hours ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
and hold your head high
get rid of your fears
and heave your biggest sigh
Oh, my lonely love
Alone in a crowded room
Feeling so scared
The shadow of isolation looms
and it feels like they don't care
My lonely love
Remembering the times
when it was just us
Sorrow, with its sweetest rhymes
think of it as you must
My lonely love
Crying alone at night
wondering what you did
hearing them fight
when you were only a kid
my lonely love
Told that you were ugly
that you were not good enough
they will just never see
That they weren't all that tough
my lonely love
When it feels as though your soul is gone
And your heart is broken

The Gallivant Gypsy
Her skirt skims her hips,
The air kisses her lips,
The fire dances and she burns,
Like a lovable loop, she turns...
She is the oracle of the night,
She is for some kinsmen a knight,
She is the gallivant gypsy,
She is even slightly tipsy...
Her torso teases the tide,
Of the fanatic flourished flames,
Increasingly growing which hide,
Behind such a beauty. She blames
The fate to have forgotten the times,
When she could devour delicious limes,
When she could cry and whine all day,
Until the sorrow fades away.
For now she is this mild maiden,
Singing secrets to the soft skies,
Down below is Earth, she is Eden,
She wa

BalanceIn my mind's chaotic labBalance13 minutes ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
On the ancient golden scales
Trying balance to restore
To the soul that ran off rails
Measuring the precious substance
Mixing potions in glass vials
Adding pinch of this and that
Couple poems and few smiles
Image of a happy dream
Chant of lyrics' incantation
Shine of happy amber ray
Maze of words for inspiration
Memory of few lost hours
Water from the magic well
Just few drops of bitter tears
Wish on shooting star that fell
In between two beating hearts
String of soul is tightly strung
It begins to sing its song
Of the love forever young

Because that's one
Of the best things
About you
I love your personality
Because without it
You wouldn't be you
I love your looks
Because I wouldn't change
A thing about you
Even if I could
I love your voice
Because everything you say
Means something to me
I love you
Because you're
The best thing
That happened to me
I love you
Because
You make me smile
Without trying to
I love you
Because
You have a kind heart

Because we have
History
I love you
Because we've been
Through so much
Overcome so much
I love you
Because you
Showed me how
I love you
Because you
Loved me first

A blue-jay flies,
Circling all the land;
She chirps and sighs,
Seeing the people saddend.
Pain doesnt cease,
Craving but unchanging;
Losses only increase,
Eternal flame engulfing.
Desire is lust,
Everlasting silence is heard;
Ashes blown from dust,
Outcries are evermore ignored.
No one knows the end,
Clutching til someone hears;
Continuing to pretend,
Eyes are all in tears.

Our first kissI see her, in the moonlight, sparkling with joy.Our first kiss7 hours ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
What could she see in me...more than a sad, poor boy?
We were at the town pond when it happened,
all her hopes and dreams, reaching to adventures end!
We sat there and talked, all through the night,
just us sharing secrets until it was light.
My heart sank as the sun came out,
for it was the time i'd forgotten about!
She looked out deep into the sunrise,
then back at me with those sweet blue eyes.
My heart filled with joy and laughter,
not even thinking about the moments after.
I could see what she wanted, deep in her soul:
it was a little more than just a stroll.
My nerves made me shake, i wa

MemoryThose glassy eyes painted blueMemory10 hours ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Rimmed with tears, what to do...
I watch you as you watch me
Masks to hide our memory
No more time for us to grieve
I just wait to see you leave.
Those whispered words under lights
Strung about high in the nights
We look about with a soft gaze
Anywhere but into the haze
Where we sit close but far away
Never letting love in our way.
Those aching breaths, thoughts aligned
Masterfully, painfully designed
A catalyst of broken things,
Scattered pieces of scattered dreams
I still remain an obedient slave,
Still passive for the love you gave.
Those repetitive salutations, goodbyes
Weakened by that incessant drive
No

SavingThere is no way to save it.Saving11 hours ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Don't throw a fit,
just let it slip.
At times it's just too hard,
to let go of that card.
It aint yours,
it aint telling you what you hoped-for.
Sometimes you can let those tears fall,
other times you need to wipe them all.
Blow that nose,
take every blow,
and stand up to face those mighty crows.
When people ask,
face them like a task,
and never let up on that mask.
I got this good,
we got this hood.
Suck it all up,
and stick it in a cup.
There always is another chance.

Stay or Go?Should I go away?Stay or Go?13 hours ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
You look at me with remorse.
Do I have a say?
Is there another way?
My heart feels course...
Should I go away?
Is there any sway?
My heart is under force...
Do I have a say?
Should I leave in May?
Or shall I stay with the Norse?
Should I go away?
Just when you think you can stay...
You learn your love's heart is full of remorse...
Do I have a say?
So what should I say?
To relieve your heart of remorse...
Should I go away?
Do I have a say?

Lady MonarchLady Monarch14 hours ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
Only a handful of people know
of a woman who is worthy of a bow
She, who's grace was reconized by her workers
One of the most elegant of nobles
The kindness of her soul
(she) helps the unfortunate reach their goal
even though her world was pensive
the monarch is alive to my dearest friend and keeps her positive

Fate is not subtle, respite is deceit.
Eventually the earth will crack
And I will plummet all the way back
Into a place I call Hell on Earth
Where human suffering is a source of mirth
If life can spite me, oh, it will try.
I will not have a chance to say goodbye
And tell all the things I wanted to say
You know what, maybe its better that way.

embraced by you, none can shake me.
Gentle flow give swift end,
were fear and i to become one.
A deeper connection sought for,
wholly en captured, swallowed hole.
In my sorrow and despair,
i see you only when i let go.
Love beyond dreams, happiness in sight,
you appear as sparkles of light.
One with me, my heart sends regards,
for my warmth i thank you.
As nature calls my body to surrenders,
what i once took in, i now let go.

Dead InspirationI sit before a blank page,Dead Inspiration18 hours ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
as I force the words across the stage.
Sure they sing, they dance and play,
but they have lost their meaning, and their way.
They have lost their touch, their feeling, they are dead,
but still I force these words through my pen.
I wrote for the fun, for joy, for life,
but now they are forced with the point of a knife.
There is no inspiration for me this day,
but if I don't write my conscience will pay.
I am tearing the words from deep in my soul,
and now there is nothing to fill the hole.

Deception lies in my eyes
But I cannot stop
I am in too deep
I have gone way too far
To end this tonight
So I will keep on
Lying straight to your face
About that one friend
Who is not a friend
But another lover
I am so sorry
The lonliness is
Just too much for me too bear
But I love you most

The StrongestIn the darkest days of lifeThe Strongest21 hours ago in Traditional Fixed Forms More Like This
When death lingered in the air
And the chill of night stole the ones you love
The strongest stayed and fought
When illness stole your kin
When the shadows bribed them to death
When others took others
The strongest stayed and fought
When hope was a myth
And Pandora's box felt real
When the Devil came in the night
The strongest stayed and fought
When the reapers said it was right
When lost was lost in time
When all seemed grim
The strongest stayed and fought
The strongest kept hope alive
The strongest fought to keep you up-right
And with this burden to bare
The strongest died fighting

1000 ships full of men from safe port set sail
but little know they that they go to hell
With their ships full of spice from exotic lands
but the cargo was sold but to the sea not to changing hands
That night the storm all calm broke
and from the deep did raise black smoke
And death with sword in hand did come to every bo

Give me a chance
Give me a day
Just to show you
I want the chance
Just to fall in love
Just with you
All over again
A chance to know
Everything I loved
Is still there
The person I cried over
Will still wipe away
My tears
And will try
To make sure
Another one never falls
Because of him
Show me that person
Give me that reason
Hold on to him
Because he
Will be your salvation
The light will shine
In the darkness
The moon
Will guide the way
In the night
And love
Will guide a broken heart
To love again

And you don't
Know my heart
You don't believe
As I believe
You never know
I love you
You never knew
Never listened when
It could have
Been fixed then
You gave up
And for what
Because you don't
Know my heart
Even when
I showed it
To you
All the faults
In it
Every imperfection
And you still
Don't believe
You'd rather
Quit
Because
It's too hard
Because you believe
It's too hard
But really
It's just one
Step forward

Dancing on wave of surging hope
The distant shore at last to see
To feel the solid sandy beach
To fall asleep rocked by soft waves
In safety of the bay's embrace
Discovering its treasure caves
