Once the earth kissed the sky, then separated day from night. Only to then cause a rain storm from our heavens eyes. The warm tears fell,  landing on nature's ground. We're the starving rose lye, dying. Tears once rejected, now found there place, re-hydration to the rose giving life to his face. Rejoice from sadness,  build our strength. To accomplish all, and give back what we can't take.

She swallowed his words with ease,
allowing the harsh,
unpalatable words slip into her,
without any jarring to her senses.
She fears the day of lashing back,
from all the pain incurred.

A cycle unable to be broken;
Wish. Pray. Dream.
Everything you learn to do as a little girl,
a little child.
They were failing on her.

Not noticing one thing that
might make that difference,
faith.
Something she lacked all her life.
Faith in her wishes, prayers, dreams.
Faith that she can spit out his words,
blend them to grinds,
insignificant as they will always be.

She wasn’t strong,
pretending to not feel pain.
She wasn’t strong,
allowing those harsh, unpalatable words sit in her mind;
untouched,
creating a home for corruption,
wasting away her insides.
She turned towards faith.

Faith, allowing the harsh, unpalatable words
build up coal inside,
not hesitating to spark fire,
and lash his soul into frenzy.
Faith, making her
wishes, prayers, dreams
never fail again.
Faith,
bringing out strength she never knew she had.
I have never seriously written poetry, but I would love to get some feedback and thoughts on my poems.  If this doesn't make sense then I am sorry, it makes sense in my mind lol.
Thanks in advance! :)

You can’t give up so easily
‘cause now is not your time
You wish that things were better
But for now you’ve got to lie
Deal with life today
And tomorrow will be better
Put a fake smile on your face
And hold yourself together

You wish you could
Figure it out somehow
But you can’t leave
The walls are crashing down
You’ll have your time
It just isn’t now
Go ahead and scream
Please someone help me
Someone help me now

You feel the walls are closing in
But you’re not even scared
You just want the pain to end
Want somebody to care
You never thought it’d be so hard
To just get through today
‘cause you’re about to give up
And throw everything away

You wish you could
Figure it out somehow
But you can’t leave
The walls are crashing down
You’ll have your time
It just isn’t now
Go ahead and scream
Please someone help me
Someone help me now

You never wanted to be here
Now it’s all that you’ve got
You’re hanging by a thread

You wish you could
Figure it out somehow
But you can’t leave
The walls are crashing down
You’ll have your time
It just isn’t now
Go ahead and scream
Please someone help me
Someone help me now

Someone help me now
Someone help me

No Moon

The window lets in the moonless hot summer
as the breeze rifles through the sheets
looking for our bodies.

Your fingers dance  over my palm,
absently tracing the lines of my life,
the stories hidden in my skin.

Oh, if I could touch you!

On the precipice of your lips,
shyly tremble the promises you cannot beleive
and will not give.

Your hand leaves.

Still and silent I hold myself.
It as if each star from the sky is dying
and as the stitches of constellations unravel,
and the black blanket of sky falls.  

And dark summer rules our room.  
Your face invisible, but I can hear your breath still.
Like the far away waves of a retreating tides.
But there is no moon, and you will not return.

Sad
It’s a sad existence
For me, at least
The simplest things in life
Never cease to fail me
I don't have it hard
I am as plain as Jane gets
My existence is
Pin straight
Dutifully brown hair
Eyes like dark curtains in a dark room
I am merely the wallpaper
The sky behind the sun
Or sometimes the early morning fog
(on my good days)
It’s a sad existence

I have friends of all sorts
But nobody to sit with at lunch
I am probably too bothersome
Like the pigeons that sit on the roof
And peck at the windows
Or maybe I’m the moon
Cherished by night,
But ignored by day
I am as sad,
somber
And sometimes
I burn bright like the sun
(in my good months)
It’s a sad existence

I have love
He sits beside me everyday
But he chooses to ignore that fact
That the room lights up every time
Our eyes meet
And instead
He runs after the girls
who will forget him in a heart beat
Which is ironic
because I often figure he’d do the same to me
But yet here I am
We are very much the same
Running after people we can’t have
(everyday)
It is indeed a sad existence

We've traveled these long roads together
Battling these monsters hand in hand
Along the road we came to terms
We began to understand

We've seen the sunset
And watched the moon rise
Laughed effortlessly together
And disguised our hopeless cries

Time seems to have passed us by
Because I've seemed to forget your smile
Your eyes are a dim memory in my mind
I haven't heard your voice in my head in a while

I sat beside your grave
And even brought you flowers
I gazed up at the moon hoping I'd see you
As a shooting star in the highest of the star towers

I sat there all night
Wishing you'd just return to my embrace
Crying as I wished I could go back in time
And tell you I loved you, and memorize your face

Because those little things that never seemed to matter
Matter so much more than they ever did
I need to see every flaw and perfection
That you ever hid

Because now your six feet too far
And the ground is far too cold
I can't reach down and pull you up
Your bones are to fragile to hold

You know how the sun is always there,
each morning, throughout the day
and makes sure life grows.
and sometimes you want to face it,
with eyes closed
and arms spread out
till a tingle spreads from your fingers
to your insides
and how sometimes the same sun
burns your skin and prickles your mind.

You know how the moon is always so calm,
serene and makes you awestruck
as if it's the reason for the tides
of your heart
how it makes you feel secure and at peace
how it follows your car and keeps looking
out for you wherever you are.
but also how it isn't always there,
or is, but not entirely.


There are different types of love.
