I just started writing, and personally, I don't think my poems are good, but a friend told me I should get on this website. I love reading, and I am a major fangirl. I hope you guys like my poems!
Her blood is cyanide She cannot seem to hide She is light as helium She's strong as aluminum She is graphite carbon As subdued as boron Abundant as hydrogen But toxic as nitrogen She's precious as platinum Her skin is thallium In her lungs there is radon She is as rare as xenon Helpful as iodine Whose life is astatine's She is soft as lithium Her eyes are beryllium There is nothing I can do Already the tumor grew

Periodic Table
Some things never change And that's completely okay But darkness lies in everyone But that is okay The darkness consumes you That's okay You aren't you Okay? Darkness consumes Are you okay? You slowly die You aren't okay. It's too late Why didn't you say you aren't okay? The darkness won.

Darkness
These walls are my prison These bars, my door There's nothing I can do As I lay on the floor Silent tears carve rivers Down my swollen red cheeks There are many orifices through which My crimson blood leaks My mind is my prison My body, the bars Soon I will break free I will heal my scars.

Prison
For what it was tell me anon Lest my heart turn and run Away from Verona, Cursed land That else was dealt a Wounded hand In gloomy streets do shadows cry For the Love of my life that did Die Deep in her Earthen bed From her breast drew red By her own lovely manner So down came the War banner And so in quiet despair With a quick, desperate Prayer I lay down next to her in the tomb And return to the Mother's womb

To Juliet
Tears stream down my face As I watch the evening news My eyes see each horrible case And I follow the camera crews A bomb exploding in Boston A boy killed by police Then fluff about a dolphin. All this needs to cease. Another man killed on the streets Genocide in other lands People sleeping without sheets Shivering from toes to hands People rioting in the dark Looting shops and homes Humanity has left its mark All that will be left are Bones Future generations will look back at ours After we are dead and gone We have created our own jail bars They might never see the dawn This world is so messed up I think we need a proctor We are all like Angry Pups What we really need is a Doctor.

I see your hair Gleaming in the sun Your clothes hadn't the slightest tear Your hair was up in a messy bun You took my hand and showed me around You were very clever To you I was forever bound Bound by blood, forever You are my sister I would have it no other way We used to say sisters before misters Sisters we will always stay The light catches in your eyes I see your smile so bright You have never told a lie You are always full of light I awake from the dream Crying in the dark My parents hear my scream It all ended with a spark.

Fire
The color of a rainy day The sadness when she goes away The opposite of burning passion The sea in all its glorious action The color you feel when you hear The word death What a family sees at the funeral Of a girl with everything left It’s not sunlight, fire, happiness, light; Its moonlight, water, sadness and sight. When you see the grave Of a dear friend, father, and husband When you think you can save Your young little cousin A voice in the back of your head Telling you that they’re all dead. The color of a rainy day The color when she goes away What you see in the final moment The thing that comes as a dreadful omen.

Blue
Life is a little girl with a white gown So pure, untouched, naïve to the cruel world Thru storm and fire she never gave a frown Instead she danced and to the drums she twirled Life is a teen in a drab dull gray dress Who knows so very little but she goes To many quests and many calloused test Though all she really wants to do is doze Life is a woman in a pitch black gown Who sees the world and knows lots of things now So many things dare threaten drag her down She worked so hard and there’s sweat on her brow But the young girl did not make it to gray Though all who were dear had wished she would stay

Life
Take a breathe and make a wish Something you would surely miss A little girl in a white frock Dreaming and watching the clock A winged horse high in flight An angel in glorious light A mermaid splashing by Wings that could make her fly Take a breathe and make a wish Between your toes the mud goes squish A teenager in a gray dress To her lips a flower pressed Friends to make it all right The ability to have the gift of sight Wishing that her books were real Knowing people who would steal Take a breathe and make a wish Ignorance is truly bliss A women in a darker gown On her lips there is a frown Money to pay off her debt The world is just one big threat A man who will treat her right A kiss on a new years’ night Take a step back and remember the way Things were in previous days So happy and bright So full of light Whatever happened to the wishes? They disappear because we are suspicious We don’t believe that they are real The older we are, the less we feel.
