Poem.
Title: ghost
Standing by the fountain,
In a garden of the past.
Castle walls surrounding a world that never was.
Silence echoes off the walls, suffocating empty halls.
Ghost of the past that no one knew.
Words whispered only to you.
The beat of the heart matching footsteps.
Corner upon corner you turn.
Walking the empty holes of the past.
Wandering the times.
Float like a ghost into forever.
Sit and watch the day.
Unseen, misunderstood.
Faceless, shapeless.
Not there at all.
Ghost of forever walking the hall.
Short but hey who cares....(no one.....
)

Title: Schizophrenic
Voices that talk only when you are alone.
Silence that cuts the core of you,
Tears into forever and washes away the blood like rain.
Hear the ticking of the clock,
Think of only sadness.
Try your hardest not to let it show.
Try your hardest to swallow,
Swallow the pain,
Swallow the fear,
Or be devoured in the world you dread.
All the voices in your head.
It's always there.
Danger around every turn.
Never knowing what to burn.
For your schizophrenia.
Life is but a maze.
For your schizophrenia,
You live live in a daze.
If this is weakness, were is the proof.
Not insanity, different in youth.
Schizophrenic,
Saved by fate,
Hide alone, sit and wait.
Swallow the beating pound of your heart,
Swallow the fears,
Or drown in tears.
For your schizophrenia,
Every shadow is an enemy,
Each motion a move on death.
Schizophrenia, schizophrenic conversations.
-Sparkles-I live,
I breath,I'm on my knees, begging the world to save me.
Title: How do I choose (Broken promise)
What’s left to lose from the things we fell into?
What’s left to say from all that faded away?
How do I salvage the remainder of a broken promise?
We were young,
We thought we knew happiness.
It rains, it pours.
We ran from the truth all this time,
We thought we knew, but now we aren’t so sure.
Broken promises hurt more than the heart.
Broken words, jagged as they cut through.
How do I choose between hanging there lost and alone and walking on and going home?
How could you know?
The light is dim outside.
Walking home alone, I couldn’t listen, I couldn’t choose,
So I let go.
Let it all just fall,
Fall away, fade away.
Does it matter who was right and who was wrong?
We all lose no matter what.
One goes left, the other right,
And on we walk until the songs play once again.
Lost a friend held a memory.
In the dark,
Outside of it all.
Seeing for the first time, each other from a distance.
Playing a game of keep away.
What’s left to say?
When it rains, it pours.
When we fall, we are torn.
What’s left to lose from the things we fell into?
What’s left to say from all that faded away?
How do I salvage the remainder of a broken promise?
How do I choose between hanging there lost and alone and walking on and going home?
How could I choose?
How could you know?
Why did we go?
Title: Friendship’s memory
Remember the days spent together?
Remember the times we laughed, and the times we just held on?
Stood by the tree the other day, thinking of all we use to say,
Knowing it was too late anyway.
Watched the sunset fade to gray.
Looking out on the lake, all we knew, sunk.
There goes my heart.
The times we talked, and the times we both just listened to the silence.
Where did it go?
Washed away by yesterday and tomorrow.
The memories, brought to my knees.
If nothing has changed then why are you not the same?
Under the tree I remember, lasting times, all the times.
Forever etched in my heart, inerasable, chiseled in.
Remember the days spent together under the brightest of suns, when the beginning had only just begun?
Remember the times we laughed and the times we could only hang on,
Why are we letting go?
Stood by the tree the other day, thinking of all we use to say,
Knowing it was too late anyway,
Watching you walk away from me.
As the dark calls the light and I search for the comfort of yesterday I am waiting on tomorrow’s pain.
Numbness,
Chilled,
So cold and alone.
Looking, as if through stained glass, at friendship’s memory, at all that used to be.
-Sparkles- Always, all and ways put together, ALL the WAYS you hurt me.
I'm having some ruff times, so I may post often!
Title: Silence made easy
When the voices stop,
When the calls go away,
What is there to say when nothing’s left?
Echoes in the corridor, silence in the hall.
On the way home, on the way back to myself.
When it’s over, let it go.
When you can’t hang on, let it go.
I think it’s time you know,
There is nothing left of me,
No more choices, no more words,
All is said and done, haven’t you heard?
When I walked away, that was the end that day,
How long will you wait for someone who isn’t coming around?
How long will you freeze out in the snow before you realize,
I’m gone, there I go.
On and on the phone it rings,
On and on the blind man sings,
Can you tell, can you see?
Yesterday is a memory to me,
Have you heard, I’m on my own,
Have you heard, I’m all alone.
Hey, do you see, can you tell,
Silence coming, straining, stunning,
Cold as ice, heart beat slowing,
Time erasing, gone, never knowing.
Now the voices stop, the choice is made,
The calls have come and gone away,
What’s left to say?
Tell me, just go away!
Silence undoubting,
The secrets haunting,
The tales all told.
Foe to friend and back again.
Should’ve known, I should’ve known!
Forever and always,
Never and now gone away!
Hey, that’s fine with me, silence made easy.
THanks for reading!

Title: What its like
Those who dance in the rain and know nothing of others pain,
Those who swim with the flow of the river and never fight the waterfalls,
Those who sing with their eyes closed and their back to the audience,
Do you know what its like to be the only one?
The last to stand and the first to fall.
Do you know what its like to look someone in the eye before they go?
Do you know what its like to live with no regret?
To be able to walk out in public and not worry of what the others think and see?
Do you see?
Those who truimphed and stood tall when others decided to remain tall,
They know what its like.
Those who changed for the better and didn't make things worse,
They know.
Those who became who they knew they wanted to be and stood for what was right when others fell for the wrong,
They know exactly what its like.
The little things that tear you down day by day, that change the way we look at things,
They know.
The images in the hall of history that stood for and agaist tirany,
They know what its like.
No one knows anyone, but we are all close to someone.
Someone that gets us through the day.
Those who build the mystery,
Those who left behind things precious to the heart,
Those who wished on every star for something meaningful,
Those who walked the distance and tried not to come in last,
Those who knew others pain,
Those who swam against the currents of the river and battled the waterfall,
Those who sang while facing the audiance and looking at their faces,
They know what its like to crawl out of that shadow that grips us all so tight.
And they knew that once they were out they would always fight it and would always be different.
But they stood in the light regardless of the opinions of others,
They stood tall and strong.
They know what its like,
TO tear down the wall that others built to seperate,
And to buid a bridge of unity around the world.
They fought, sometimes they didn't win, but they fought.
DO you know what its like?
Thanks for reading you guys! ^^
