In reality I am a shadowIn reality I am a shadow
Ignored, silent, waiting in perpetual stagnation
Temporarily seated in reality, my world lies in paper

My breath is a flow of words
The blood in my veins, made of ink
My heartbeat is the movement of a pen

Words give me meaning
A way to define who I am
My existence lies within a story yet untold

With every new word my world grows
New things come into existence
New possibilities to be unlocked

In my world I am alive
Growing, breathing, always moving
The paper is my home, my castle, and my sanctuary

Candle LightForced back to see the life that we once knew
I feel at home now I have a heart that isn’t glued
Even after it was broken many times before
Underwater I breathe you in and I like the taste
So when I see a candle light I know that it’s you

I’m singing this song again tonight
I want to follow your candle light
It’s such a beautiful sight
Just being able to see another light
That’s more like black and blue

I end up breathing your soul in
Now that you’re once again in my sights
I really need you just to feel alive
Fighting us feels like I may not suffocate
But there’s still a danger that I will

Some Days

Some days it is hard to say
“Its fine really”, “Yes I’m okay”
Some days it’s hard to pretend,
And smile as darkness descends

But Some days it’s easier to run and hide
Than let them see the hurt inside
Some days it’s better to deceive
Those around you and just let them believe

Laugh and joke, act like you don’t care
Keep in the pain that’s too hard to share
Keep smiling and laughing and acting the clown
They won’t ever expect that you’re feeling down

But slowly and surely it’s eating you alive
Now it’s become a battle to survive
You’re losing yourself,

Listen to the muttering of a dead heart~Lets just forget about each other
Lets walk separate paths down the road
If we go different ways we'll be better
And we won't have to act so icy cold

I'm starting to get used to
Being alone at night
I'm starting to get used to
Our difference in height

I don't really know your thoughts
I only know half of mine
But I like to pull away
And you don't seem to mind

Can I just keep my mouth shut though?
Can I keep going the way I am
With my head going through the clouds
And your feet firmly planted on land

I'm ready for an artificial life
And I'm ready for you to choose for yourself
I can't tell you to your face
But at least I am honest with mys

Could it be...Could it be
That the clues I leave
Are really just holes
Just emptying my soul

Could it be
That no one can see
The pictures I draw
Of the things I saw

Could it be that
I write things people forget
And the things I say
Are forgotten within a day

Could it be that
People regret
Reading the things I write
And I just don't know it yet

Could it be
You can't understand me
And all my dreams
Aren't possible in this reality

Could it be
That I don't know myself
That I can't actually ever say
What I want to say

Could it be
That you are all deaf
And there is no reason left
To go on with me and continue talking

Could it be
That I just don't know
An

Forever MoreIt's said true friendship is strong
A tree hundreds of years old
yet I saw a withered leaf falling
And the green begins to fade

Look beyond the withered leaf
See past the fading green
Look down into the soil
Where strong roots do grow.

I can hear dry branches cracking
And all the oncoming storms
Black clouds darkening the sky
Are we strong enough to prevail?

Though the branches may crack
As the winds bend them back
Look beyond the darkening clouds
The rays of the sun can be found.

I don't want to lose what we had.
I don't want to see it die.
But the wind takes the leaves away.
A barren skeleton is what is left.

Do You Remember?Do you remember that poem you wrote me?
Well, I found it the other day.
It was in my jacket pocket.

I didn't know one piece of paper
Could bring back so many memories.
It's amazing how long it has been
Since you gave it to me.

I am thankful that
I had you in my life.
All the good and bad times,
They made us that much stronger.

Thank you for coming into my life.
Thank you loving me.
I couldn't have asked for anything better.

So you see what a simple
Piece of paper with words on it can do.
It made me remember why I cared so much.
It made me remember you,
So thank you for writing it.

SadnessSadness had always been an active resident in the places I had lived.
It swelled and breathed and scented the breeze like the dying petals of spring,
floating through open windowpanes and settling like dust on the empty shelves.
Sometimes it just appeared without visible entry like the cobwebs that roost in those corners you had thought so clean just a day ago. Or it unraveled in the morning dew and graced the cold spring skies, scattered like hundreds of wandering stars only visible in the light of a window.

It would melt into my morning tea, cooling the little tornadoes of cream and sugar that spun around my spoon and it would pass behi

Virtual InsanitySorry is all you have to say?
'Sorry' doesn't make the pain go away
Sorry doesn't remove the knife in my heart
Sorry doesn't even begin to start
To heal the blood that has been shed
To revive the heart that has been dead
It doesn't remove the scars that have been made
It doesn't even help the wounds fade

You tell me of your regrets
All of your lies and yet
I can't seem to care
Because I don't know how much more I can bare!
My fragile mind can't take much hurt
It can't stand by and watch you treat me like dirt
As you kick in my heart
Rip out my spine
Poison my brain
Until I have nothing left
And go insane.

PainPain is but a thing. It cometh to all of us but some of us can forget.
Pain is but a notion. It is what you let yourself feel when you wont feel anything else.
Pain is but a feeling in the flesh. A mere acceptance of a lack of anything else.
Pain is necessary.

Everyone gets hurt. Everyone feels the pain.
It's a step on each of our paths.
Pain is acceptance of loss.
Pain is necessary.

SkyYour eyes are like a sky
The deepest, richest blue
Cloudless, perfect, a void of escape
Not a sea taht I could drown in
Resting my head on the crook of your neck
Breathing in clean air
Instead of a plague you are a cure
The sweetest antidote
Intoxicating
This is a dream
Its unnatural-the way you make me feel
Is this a fantasy?
Or is it about to become my reality?

Dark Hatred, Dark HeartDark hatred formed when I wished it to not, dark hatred coated me black.
Dark hatred formed so long ago, I cannot recall when.
Dark hatred formed in the pit of my being, I fear I cannot take it back.
Dark hatred eats at my soul, making me screech now and again.
Dark hatred covers my voice, filling my words with sin.
Dark hatred laughs at the light, forcing me to laugh too.
Dark hatred stabs at me, dark hatred is a pin.
Dark hatred pushes inside me, I fear it will push at you.
Dark hatred knows it controls me.
Dark hatred laughs at my attempts to escape.
Dark hatred, so old, like the earth, and yet other worldly.
Dark hatred, the souls and minds it rapes.
Dark hatred, since he universe was young.
Dark hatred, made of spirits that twist into one.
Dark hatred, so many feuds its defiling hands have wrung.
Dark hatred, blocking out the sun.
Dark hatred creates Dark Hearts.

SupermanA fold in the system,
a small piece of kryptonite
to make everything crumble.
Superman won't save us,
he's too weak
and we're beyond help.

Cold RainIn each foolish waiting
A song is written
In each foolish waiting
The smile on my face is forbidden
In each foolish waiting
your soul that within me laughs at me
Over and over a gain from the start
I've never told you about the wound that is hidden
In my heart..

How many times I've told you that I miss you..
Just how many times
How many times I've stared at your picture and smiled with pain
While you were busy in things I never knew
How many times I called your name in the rain
Until I got wet
This rain used to be warm with you
But now you are gone
so far far away
You left and left me the rue
There is nothing to do
Th

Through These EyesIn a city where it rains so much
How easy it is to just see gray
Not through these eyes though
These eyes see color everywhere
No sadness will be found in the rain
By me all that's found is joy and serenity
Each drop hitting the ground is a small symphony
I say let these tears of bliss fall from the sky
Breathe life into the plants
Quench the thirst of the city
This is what I see in a city so "gray"
And it is through these eyes
I catch a glimpse of something angelic
Inside of you,when I look into your eyes,
I can see it, feel it, deep inside of you
A mysterious elegance that pierces the heart
I know now, my queen, there is

Des Reves / DreamsIl y a quelque chose sur toi
qui me fait rêver
et je perds ma raison
C'est inutile
essayer de cacher, mentir,
ou simplement dire que non
Parce que quand tu es proche
je me sens libre,
je me sens plus légère.
Perdue, je me trouve
dans une autre dimension,
comme une nouvelle atmosphère
Un monde où
je peux te faire rêver,
et où je peux rêver avec toi.
Un monde où
je te vis comme ma realité -
c'est un rêve pour moi.
Parfois, j'ai peur
de reveiller et voir
que c'est comme ce de rien était.
Mais le matin,
je sens ton embrasse vers moi...
Mes rêves sont déjà vrais!

Romantic ShitI never needed the romantic shit...
I'd rather have had a little respect.
Your set of pleasantries could not desguise
the way you treated me as a cheap object.
I think about all the lies you told
and how I was stupid enough to believe...
In a first moment, I really felt pain
now though, I feel relieved.
Your indiference towards my feelings
and the "I love you"s that were never true
are what come to my mind
every damned time I think about you.

ToiLa lumière tombe sur ton regard, amour
et produit un effet si divers.
Moi, envoutée, j'admire
le mystère du brun avec le charme du vert.

Comme une œuvre d'art
tu es parfait, chaque morceau
Je ne me sens jamais fatiguée
de regarder tout de toi, mon beau.

Sur ton dos, il y a des signes
gravés par les anges du ciel.
Tes bises ont la vivacité de la passion
avec la douceur du miel.

InfidelityPlease, be my toy tonight,
I don't want love, I want to forget.
Use-me while I use you...
Tomorrow I'll think about regret.

Cover my cold body with yours,
burn my skin like fire,
wake up the sensations in me,
remind what is to feel desire.

Empty me of all of him,
while you me fill with your body, with you.
Erase all the marks he left on me
and leave your own marks too.

Use-me, own-me, be my toy, be my tool,
call me cheap, call me a whore....
Just make me forget him, please!
I don't want his love anymore.

Frozen

Literature / Poetry / Emotional / Free Verse

Can things simply fade
in such a short period of time?
Where are those your feelings
you'd said you had? Where are mine?

I can no longer feel
the part of you that lived in me,
and when I try to remember your face
an indistinct blur is all I see.

With my hands I try to collect
what remains of us - all is broken!
How I wish I could feel something more
but my soul is dark, and my heart is frozen.

this poem is kind of sad but also it sounds so beautiful, i really like it

=C-Allagash Jan 7, 2013

Thanks for it.
Really.
I do think that sadness has a certain kind of beauty too.

~killuaxme Jan 7, 2013

You are welcome,
sadness certainly does. Sadness and happiness aren't as far from each other when it comes to beauty in my opinion

~Claudia-R Jan 6, 2013 Hobbyist Digital Artist

very sad but beautiful

=C-Allagash Jan 6, 2013

I think I am already scaring people.
It seems I've been sadder than I had thought
