When I die one day,

I'll be remembered for years,

then one day I won't.

Down the street in town,

a little girl walks around,

her parents not there.

Bound me in ropes,

tie me up high,

put logs under my body,

set sparks along the binds,

then watch as they climb,

higher and higher,

up onto my dress,

I'll be burned like the trees under me,

my screams louder than the bells,

the smell of cooked flesh,

washing through all around.

"Grant Mercy,"
they plead as they bled.

"Mercy."
I scoff as I mock.

"That was not given by you,
so it shall not be given to you."

"You will have the twinge of regret,
as I make you bleed in a fret."

Roses have thorns,

but their beauty makes them wanted.

If a person wants them to be unable to harm,

they cut off the roses thorns-

leaving them defenseless.

The water rushed at her face,

the priest dunking her in.

Mouth closed tight-

eyes closed tighter-

Pulled back up,
she couldn't help but wonder,

Was she now a child of God?

Why couldn't she have been before?

Now was she worthy to go to heaven,

or had she always been?

Hold my hand-
I don't want to be alone.

Hold my heart-
I don't want to be alone.

Hold me-
I don't want to be alone.

I can't be alone, but I can't grab a hold-

please, don't leave me alone.

Murdered by love I was told,

another girl broken by a tale long grown old.

To be so naive is a sad thing in its own,

though I was once on that very throne.

Now I watch with pity,

as those girls think they're too pretty.

But no one will go easy,

and they'll be seen as ******.

I sit, waiting for my moment.

Though that moment won't come if I just sit.

When will I have the courage to stand?

To do something with the limited time I have,

the never-ending timer counting down.

Why won't I stand even with the reminder my time won't be back?

My Ice Cream Flavor
Poet B Sep 11
If I was an ice cream,

I would be Cookies and Cream.

Always enjoyable but never the best.

A "Close Pick," the one chosen when the favorite isn't an option.

I still question if life is worth it,

a thought that I wish I could ignore.

I don't know why the idea rooted itself in me,

but killing it felt like a chore.

Now, even as I weep from its hold,

I question if it is there for a reason...

I am a structure,

A lie turned to four,
stories made to hide more.

Turning friendships into dust,
causing breakups over mistrust.

Lying causes momentary rest,
but after all it is not best.

Hope is a seed,

Staying in our flower bed,

I feel that languages ​​are a barrier that prevents people from communicating...

Ich bin der Meinung, dass Sprachen eine Barriere darstellen, die die Kommunikation zwischen Menschen verhindert.

Я считаю, что языки являются барьером, мешающим людям общаться.

Penso che le lingue siano una barriera che impedisce alle persone di comunicare.

Siento que los idiomas son una barrera que impide a las personas comunicarse.
Tell me to add a language, and I will.

My Greatest Fears
Poet B Sep 8
I say "I don't know,"
though I have a few.

I just don't feel like explaining them-
the complex emotions that plague my view.

Death;
I will seemingly disappear,
my mind shutting off for eternity.

Public Image;
I will never be seen by another,
as what I see myself as.

Missing Out;
I will somehow miss an important moment,
one that would've changed everything in my life.

Imperfection;
I will be seen as a failure,
a girl that was a waste of time.
If you want to, share your fears in the comments.

Why do I put words out to the world?

I don't know anymore.

Is it from the want of attention? The crave of praise?

Is it from my mind wanting to find belong in a world that I feel pushes me aside?

Is it to find people who have similar views? Or ones that are new?

I don't know and it causes me unrest- doubt clawing at my heart under the weight of expectations that hold me to the floor-

and even as I write this, it got me no where closer to knowing why.

Why do I put my words out to the world?

The church is many things all at once,
release and freedom,
tight and constricting,
different for everyone who steps inside.

A enchanting place that holds peace,
an escape from the world,
promising a time of relaxation after death.

A cage that sends chains around the heart-
locking you into fear ridden silence.
Your mind fearful of a being unseen.

The reaper
Poet B Sep 7
I danced with the reaper,
his sythe on the ground.

                        His cold hands sliding along my back,
                              spinning me dizzily around.

Right as his grip tightened the music stopped,
and I felt his boney hands drop.

                         His gaze shifted to another soul,
                           and I felt a sense of relief roll.

As I went to leave I heard them dance,
but she didn't finish her dance with death.

Tis a cold day, to go out for a stroll-
Mothers and Fathers keep children in hold.
Horse hooves clatter on the stones,
their breaths frosted white as the snows.

Tis a cold night, to stay out in the dark-
Newsgirls and Boys wish for a spark.
Hands hold another to stay warm,
their bodies shivering through the storm.

Tis a cold time, to the place called home-
Everyone disliked the frosted stound.
Howls of wind and snow go round,
their presents unwanted all around.
I honestly didn't know what to do for the last part, and I think this had a lot more potential than what I made with it...

Their, there, they're
Poet B Sep 4
Their hands held guns.
There by the hill in the woods.
They're going to **** with them.

Their eyes were filled with fear.
There on that hill in the woods.
They're going to be killed.

Their hearts were sorrowful.
There on and near the hill.
They're pawns in a game.
I thought of war when writing this. Both are at different ends of the gun, both are there because of someone else.

"If"
Poet B Sep 3
Why do i use the word
if it means it's only possible?

if i could change.
if i could smile.
if i could love.

Why can't i say it without the if?

It limits me but
if i stop i don't know what will happen...

Flames
Poet B Aug 28
My heart is a fire, the embers rest in my blood.
Veins set ablaze, sending flames through my core.
On the outside I act cool, hoping they won't see,
the blaze that rattles me everyday.

rose
Poet B Aug 28
i am a rose,

i am full of thorns.

i am a bud,

i am growing.

i am a root,

i am my support.

i am a rose,

i am doomed to wither.
Poet B Aug 28
I'm bold, bold, bold.

I thought I could melt your heart,
and warm the iceberg in your chest.
Honestly, I'd thought I'd be your best,
but I was not made for that test.

You're distant, distant, distant.

I'm here, here, here.

You think of the future,
and I see the current world.
Honestly, I wish you'd look around,
but you won't turn your head to me now.

You're oblivious, oblivious, oblivious.

I'm aware, aware, aware.

Of they fact that you'll never stare,
but I still hope you will.
The warmth in my heart,
will go cold before my love disappears.
