American I write until I have no words. I take pictures until I can no longer perceive reality. I play my guitar until my fingers bleed. I sing until I can no longer speak. I draw until my pencil breaks. Because there's no other way to tell you...no other way to keep my heart beating.<3
I sat there waiting I sat waiting Trying to look at you But your head was down. Just the way mine was when you Raised my jaw and kissed me. I asked you what happened but you gave me no reply You refused to discuss the topic. You get one life only one make the ******* best of it All you need is to be happy. Do you know how much you are hurting me? I put on a mask I built up the walls I pretended I don't care about you anymore. I pretended you didn't rip my bedraggled heart and leave it in a ditch. I pretended you didn't push me farther into the depths of this river. Why won't you tell me what I did? Please... I'm sorry about this. I will leave now.

Title?
He was singing I was singing You were playing the guitar Just five minutes ago I was so scared... I was so close to tears. But I told myself he will not see me cry again He will not. I don't know what came over me. I'm so stressed I was so... In love. Somebody **** me. quickly slowly painfully effortlessly brutally I don't care, I just want it to be over. I want to let go of the sunlight. I want you to kiss me again... Kind of badly... actually... Sorry.

Title?
You can see me You know what's happening... I could spend the rest of my life in your arms I could sing to you all night I could never bring myself to forget you I could accept that we are not an item but you are a part of me And now... . Nothing can change that... I'm sorry. I want to let you go. but my heart keeps hanging on. my mind is frozen in place. I'm stuck on your smile. I'm lost in your eyes. I'm remembering your chapped lips.

Stuck on your smile
Treat me like you used to Save me from the monster at my heels Please just love me     like you used to... Only last night     I was the center of your small world     You held me     You kissed me     You pressed your palms against mine    I am only a memory     Only part of the past     Lost in the hands of time Short time... How did you forget me so fast? How did you let me slip between     your fingers, again? How did you leave me behind? I love you,     More than you know    less than you imagined. When I'm with you I'm happier     Than I am ever with anyone     else.     Only you...forever and always

Lost in the hands of time
I wish I could go back in time    and save myself from you Fix all the mistakes I made    change all the words I said Reform the way I held your hand    relive the night you kissed me in the rain Over and over Feeling your breath on my skin Absorbing your warmth around me Forgetting the empty feeling I live with Loosing my memories of rejection    And I'm back The loneliness    The separation The depression    You left me again Just like before    The same kind of pain... but worse    a deeper wound a shallower soul.

You left me again...
I can barely remember the way you said it I was so numb. I was overwhelmed by the love you gave me prior to you ripping my heart out of my chest and throwing it to the dirt I listened to you and I cried. I could not speak. You could not see me. You could only hear the whisper of my voice Only the sound of my tears hitting the floor. The phone went dead when the words hit me... your statement was clarified. Honestly, you killed me You were all I wanted... all I needed All I want... All I need That night I had you That night you held me That night you kissed me... It was the peak of my existence. The place I want to be, always. I would never leave your side. I would be there for you. I would give anything I believe it's worth it... You are worth it ... You are more than worth it I would treasure every moment Just like we did that night... I miss you Your warmth Your arms Your voice Your smile Your everything Take me back.

Peak of My Existence
my life was lifted just above me now I have to live with what I did live with what I see. I have seen a battlefield as a classroom a warzone as a desk when nothing is as it should be then nothing is at rest ----------------------------------------------------------------- In trying to cure this one wound they have begun to open various cuts of which are now beginning to fester and scar I am one of those cuts. ----------------------------------------------------------------- I have no sense of hope, no pure feelings no... nothing. I cannot feel anymore not the sun not the wind... nor do I ever think I will feel... again... By: RAIN <3

In my eyes (This poem is by a former hello poetry user and a dear friend of mine, her username was RAIN)
Like the dying petals of a carnation Like the way I feel when you leave Like the snow in October Like the candle burnt out Like the minute the story is over Like the time it rained on your birthday Like the time when I mixed colors and they turned black Like the day when we dug a hole and didn't find any treasure Like the time my rabbit died... Like the time you held me and told me you loved me and then took me for a walk and kissed me in the rain and played me a song and made me laugh and made me feel important and then when I went home you called me... and told me that this wouldn't work out Because Your mom hates me because I'm suicidal... I'm not suicidal when I'm with you. Because You didn't want to "hurt you again..." You won't I don't care I'm happy as long as I'm with you You make me keep breathing You keep my heart beating You are all I could ever ask for. I love you. Like when you wake up to the sunshine Like when someone kisses you on the cheek Like when you look into my eyes Like when we dance Like when you draw on me Like when you can't stop laughing and then your stomach hurts Like when it's cold enough to wear your favorite sweater Like when it rains in the summer Like when you find someone perfect Like when you kissed me.

It was like...
Sometimes You see a color And from then on Nothing compares Sometimes You feel the warmth And from then on The world is frigid Sometimes You smell a fragrance And from then on Everything smells of death And sometimes You find love And from then on No one can take its place Fragile walls stand between us But they're holding you back My heart anguishes For you have changed me I have fallen for you Hard and fast Simply and helplessly You brought me Back to the days when You would hold my hands When you would talk to me every night When you would tell me everything When I was a part of you When I didn't have depression. You played me With your eyes of amber With your heart of stone Painted gold Your arms were outstretched Ready to catch me But you let me fall You watched me crash A tear fell But you walked away I tell myself You cared And you said you did... how ******* heartless do you have to be? "Ginger, I don't want to hurt you... again." What did you do?

Depression
You kissed me in the rain You held my hand close You told me you loved me You cradled me in your arms You kept me warm... But you You ripped me You tore me You tortured me You teased me You broke me I have never Loved like this I have never Mourned like this I have never Bleed like this I was just a one-night-stand.
