mistakes
the portal to future
the trail to the past

lies
the dirt hidden beneath your skin
the crys in the back of your head

broken
the cracks in your skin you cover with a smile
the downfall of what they call your life

screaming
the emotionaly pain riding threw your body
the electricity that stops your heart  but all the while brings you to life

bleeding
the final stage till the end
the end of both future and past

this is the end to it all to the mistakes, the lies, the breaking, the screaming, the bleeding it all is over
I want to go somewhere far
Somewhere calm,
Somewhere now.

I want to escape
from reality
from you
and from me

And just lay there,
eyes closed
quiet sound
and the wind
blowing against me.

Is it too hard?
just to escape
leave everything
so far away.

Then,
I suddenly find it,
peace and quiet.
Is this reality?
I am happy.

but then I see,
it was all a dream,
I am still here
In this house full of tears.

All that is left,
a memory held,
the tear stains
and the scars that remain.
This is my very first poem, and my first lenguage is not English, so be kind :)
I'm running running & running yet you still attract
Intuition forever exact
Yet I continue to ignore it's fact

As you put on a show, your pace painfully slow
You've become a foe as your true colors flow
Why is it so hard to admit what I already know?

Your eyes no longer hold that something I hoped to attain,
My pure intentions all expressed in vain

You're broken, my heart is open
Your touch is something I beckon
Your lack of attention is something I attempt to examine
I guess I lied, you can't be broken
Looking in from my world
Your heart is already much too frozen
Thought patterns slip
I thought we were something that fit
I knew I would again miss
As I slip
Down this
Seemingly
Black
And
Bottomless
Pit

Is there I ground below that I'll ever manage to hit?
Lie
Skin warm
Lungs black
Apparent truth causing ego to react
***** your mask and the pride within which you bask
As you hide so well behind your flask

One day, it'll have to die but you'll still lie
Upon those lies, my heart continues to fry
I'll once more cry
and finally, I'll say goodbye

I can't explain why
in your arms i come alive.
my senses tingle
my nerve endings buzzing
desire threading its way
through my boiling blood.

you say you love me
but sometimes I question that
when you aren't all over me
yet all I think about is you.
it is in your arms that i feel
everything there is of life.

you would hate it if you knew
my lips have touched others
my heart beat hastened for another
my spirit bonded with another
yet it is only with you
that am at peace and happy
that I love with all I have.
It is you i desire

Life

There is no meaning in life,
For whenever I try to find out I only get into strife,
Life isn't an easy task,
But rather one we don't need to ask,
Life is something we need to cherish,
Have joy within, love or relish,
For we'll never know when that day will come,
When all all our breath is gone but one,
No one knows what the next day will hold,
It could be anything for the young or the old,
Life doesn't last,
It just goes too fast,
So when you're at assembly please don't fiddle,
But when you see a daffodil,
Sit there and cherish it,
For next year it may be in a pit,
Winter is coming so it won't last,
And don't bother checking the forecast,
It's going to be snowing all winter,
You are going to be inside and get one hell of a splinter,
But don't worry just go to the doctor,
And seek his advice,
about daffodil mice.
i wrote this because i was bored and felt like doing something.
the ending gets a bit random though.
When do you really lose them?
Is it when they up and die
Or is it when the diagnosis
Is one that makes you cry?


When you forget just how they sounded
Or just how they really looked
Do you lose them over time?
Do you forget the food they cooked?

You know you can bring them back with music
One song will bring them here
You'll remember how they sounded
One song and they are here
You'll remember when you met them
You'll remember how they smelled
One song and you'll remember
All the feelings that you held

Do you lose them when they're buried?
When you put them in the ground
do you keep an old phone message
To remember how they sound

Just because it takes more time now
To get a picture of their face
Doesn't mean that you have lost them
They're still all around the place

You know you can bring them back with music
One song will bring them here
You'll remember how they sounded
One song and they are here
You'll remember when you met them
You'll remember how they smelled
One song and you'll remember
All the feelings that you held

You never really lose them
They're in the music and your heart
You can bring them from the ether
Just when the music starts

So know, they've never left you
They're as close as close can be
Though you can't remember how they sounded
And they take some time to see

You know you can bring them back with music
One song will bring them here
You'll remember how they sounded
One song and they are here
You'll remember when you met them
You'll remember how they smelled
One song and you'll remember
All the feelings that you held

Regrets
 Sep 2012 London Poet

I don't understand why  it is so difficult now
When before it might not have been easy
but it by far was never this bad
I can't hear the whisper anymore
I don't know if I ever will again
Why can't I wake myself up?
I haven't cried in a long time
I haven't truly expressed any type of emotion
except for anger
in a long time
I don't remember myself anymore
I miss a lot of things
If I knew back then
what I was going to be like now
I would run like hell
and try to change a lot of things
Someone once asked a question
"What are some regrets that you live with?"
This is what I would answer with...
I regret the day that I didn't ride my bike anymore.
I regret the day I started wearing make up.
I regret the day i straightened my hair.
I regret the day I didn't wear my retainers.
I regret the day I stopped playing sports.
I regret the day I stopped swimming.
I regret the day I stopped doing gymnastics.
I regret the day I stopped being a kid.
I regret the day my Grandma died and I realized I knew nothing about her.
I regret the day my Grandpa died and I never got to tell him how much I love him.
I regret the days I took for gran-it when I could talk to my mom face to face
I regret the day that I didn't be a little nicer to my brothers.
I regret the day I didn't live up to being the Youth leader I should have been
I regret the day that I decided I wasn't good enough
I regret the day I couldn't look in the mirror and not hate myself.
I regret the day I boxed up my emotions.
I regret the day that I let society take who I was.
I regret the day where I no longer felt important.
I regret the day that I ran away from everything.
I regret the day that I told myself "there is no turning back"
I regret the day that I lost a friend.
I regret the day where I became angry.
I regret the day where I saw my friends turning and there was nothing I could do.
I regret the day the world fell upon my shoulders.
There are so many regrets.
Far more then just this short list.
I'm in a moment of life
where things never seem to get any better.
There are still the same unsolved problems as yesterday
and life still doesn't get any easier.
The best I can do for now,
Is smile,
and pretend like nothing really matters
