poetry sharing!!

(nono don't let this die) (Here poke poke here it's crap but here)

Are you sure?

Autumn wind and chestnut leaves
Turn bleak and bitter through the fall
Freezing the bones, sucking the marrow
Cannot deny truth's looming call

Cool lakes encircled by pines
Summon an unwelcome reflection
Shadows grow taller in the water
Seeds in minds grow creeping conception

Beautiful songs by birds in trees
Are drowned out by the hunting dogs
Noses to the ground, they search for not-truth
Eyes glowing balefully through the fog

Branches quivering in the wind
Lead the beasts to the frozen deer
And follow them among the waves
To taint the water crystal clear

Their victim gapes, unharmed, in terror
Of the pursuers' howls for honesty
Takes one step forward, can't stop, they fall
Into smirking reality

Maybe

SKSKSKSKSKSK OH BOY

It's not dying, I don't think. Seasonal depression(and chronic! yay for mental fucks) and wanting to graduate are hitting me. I might have something lying around, I'll see if I can find it

Oof I always thought that was the best time to write

It's sapped all of my creative juice straight from my bones

whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat that's so good!!!

Can't write for shit, but here…

Change

People change.
This is proven.
I do not understand this -
Shouldn’t you be happy with the way that you are?
Is your desire for something more too strong?
I want to tell you how much I hate this new thing that replaced you
But I cannot bring myself to
Because this monster - behind it
Is still you.

Profanity sissy, I'll tell mom.

oooohhh I love that!

What is this feeling I feel
Down, down
Down deep in my being
It weighs a million pounds
But my head is as light as a feather
It pulls me down under
Where I can’t breathe
Can’t sleep
Can’t focus
And all I can do is succumb
To the feeling
What is this feeling I feel?
It hurts
Yet it feels so good
It’s warm
Like a fire
But don’t get too close.
I smile while tears run down my cheeks
And laugh as my soul rips apart like paper
And I don’t know what’s happening
My soul and my body are one and the same
And I feel close to something
But I don’t know what it is
I don’t know what the feeling is that I feel,
But I think it’s okay.

whoa that's so good!

Thank! I wrote it the other day and haven't edited it or anything so its a bit funky but whatever

It's great!

I'm falling into the dark
My hands, stretched out once
are now falling away
These hands have never had
Another hand to hold
These hands had another pair once
But they quickly turned to claws
Now they're stretched above me
searching for the light
my hands are slowly sinking
back towards my sides
There they sit forgetting
they ever had felt touch
while I slowly sink
deeper in the dark
a faint flicker breaks through the dim
I sink deeper in the mud
no one would help me
again the light flickers closer then before
I feel the light on my face
I can't help but wish for more
It grows dim
Fighting to survive
I watch it fade
scared to help it live
As the last warmth fades away
I reach out a trembling hand
reaching out one last time
hoping to feel the warmth
The light truly gone now
I missed my last chance
as my hand once more with draws
another brushes my skin
Grasping for the contact
Another pulls me up
Gripping my frail hand
returning what I lost
I'm lifted towards the lights
saved by the hand
who thought to reach out and touch

Teeth bared like a lion
Dripping venom like a snake
Made of stone
And filled with fire
Strike a match and watch
The city that birthed you burn
A candle-light vigil
Of your own making
For the death of a past
Full of pain
Chant or sing
But say a prayer
Or give a eulogy
Because the chains are gone
And you're free to roam
The world stands wary
Still but not quite aware
You were born of storms
And a hunger for vengeance
Runs deep in your bones

Profanity sissy, I'll tell mom.

No, don't.

Thank you! ~u~

Thanks! Mine's kinda based off a character, and I was also just really grumpy

Profanity sissy, I'll tell mom.

No, don't.

You're lucky

@Relsey 's is good too :)

It's kinda hard to understand and makes no sense out of context

Dreamer

Oh, lonely child
Lost in the wild
Of your own mind
One of a kind
Oh, lovely sleeper
Innocent dreamer
You can't come home
Now you're alone

You're Sleeping Beauty
Or a slumbering dragon
So be careful when waking

I thought I saw you move today
I don't think you're that far away
Your hands will twitch, your lungs will quake
You're never actually awake
I want to shake you, make you see
That you're not who you want to be!
You aren't alive, so you can't die
So, in your head, you'll try to fly…

!!!!!!!!!!

Bad Weather

It's all in your head
Dreaming in bed
For hopeless things
For present kings
If I had just tried
Swallowed my pride
Took off the blind
Someone to find
I'm sorry father
You know your daughter
I'm sorry mother
I am no other
Than a
Lying freak
Tongue-in-cheek
Hater who
Doesn't know what to do
An empty soul
A hungry ghoul
Who won't
Eat because of the front
She's created
Won't you stay alive
Take the dive
Bones, heart shatter
Doesn't matter
You're a missing brick
A tockless tick
They should be glad
Why are they sad?
I'm sorry father
You know your daughter
I'm sorry mother
I am no other
Than a
Smoking wreck
Unsigned check
Of a kid
Who likes what she undid
Sad little mess
An unwise guess
Of a worm
Who seems to like
The storm
She's created
Do you still care now?
My final bow
My final trick
To get so sick
Well now you have it
My new habit
Of breaking bones
I want to own
I'm sorry father
You know your daughter
I'm sorry mother
I am no other
Than a
Hopeless child
Lost in the wild
Coming here
To explain tears
A distant fight
A muffled light
Shining now
Just to reveal the cloud
She's created.
I'm sorry father
You know your daughter
I'm sorry mother
I am no other
Than
A feather
A tether
Bad weather
No other!

I wrote this for school and it sucks, but take it.

The roar of the waves fills my ears, and strangely dominates the howl of the wind.
It smashes against the rocks of the jetty and dissipates with a faint "sssss".
Moisture caresses my cheeks and smooths my hair with it's gentle hand.
My head tilts back for my silent screams to reach the stars.

ooh that's good! the only thing i'd fix is

with it's gentle hand.

to

with its gentle hand.
