What a Mess Made
alex a Aug 2015
Taking the extreme way out,
You can't always try to be killing yourself.
One day they say you'll have a wife
And a kid or two.
Well, whatcha gonna do when you find out
Life's the right thing for you?

Can drugs really mess you up so bad
That you forget the life you used to have?
Us, together, could have been a team.
But, I guess it wasn't part of your color scheme.
Babe, you know you will always mean the world to me.
Team "Angel Eyes and Devil in Disguise"
Could have ruled the world with their teenage minds.
thank you for reading! please comment

False Fairy-tales
alex a Jul 2015
We're the muted colors
The flowers that failed to bloom
You were beauty that never spoke
But you melted my heart too soon.
My heart is sticky in my hands
And the blood is pouring out.
Boy, you lost all control of your mind.
I see you smile right before the darkness take me out.
i need you

Hidden
alex a Jul 2015
Wild thoughts are running in my head
Can't hold them down;
They won't stop until they are dead.
Run red streaks
Hide their blue cheeks
in the jungle of my mind.

Hurry, faster
They will catch up
They stop at nothing
to rip your heart out
and expose every inch of your tar-like soul.

Take me to a doctor
it got me.
I can't breathe anymore.
It's gotten the best of me.
The *****,bony hands
have grabbed me,
stolen me of vacancy.
It hurt my delicate
and poor
sanity.

Have you found the golden ring yet?
Have you tasted the embodiment of sweet heaven?
Find the paradise that lies within your spirit.

Our English Hieroglyphs
alex a Jul 2015
Shielded myself from everyone else
No one knew where to find me.
You carved into the walls I built around me.

The stones said that he loved me,
it must be true.
He spends all his days out here carving,
who else is he carving to?

Advice to all
alex a Jun 2015
Love with all you have,
because God forbid
the day you wake up unable to love.
The emotions becomes foreign
and tugs at your head,
strangles your throat,
and psychopathy engulfs you.
alex a Jun 2015
i heard the gods,
they got angry again.
all of the passion
in the world in gone.
i live on top of bricks
and lay on a bed of sorrow.

forever i'm weeping
with the lonely.
all of the people, lonely.

how can i grow?
how can i get better?
out of the dark pit
that i once called my friend.
hear them weeping from the heavens.
open your eyes.
open your ears to your protectors
and listen to their words.
alex a Jun 2015
i am trapped in a cold, cold place.
there is no way out.

there is something special here.
how the stars shine
in different ways
like they know something
about me.

the presence of another
fills my mind.
it watches me
blink
slow
and
steady.

the ****** fingertips
and rusty nails
is all i can relate to now.
i'm feeling so empty right now and just had to write out something. it's sloppy, i know. it's not the best, but this is as raw as i can get. i was going to divide these into small poems themselves, rather than several stanza, but who has time for that?

Brand New Day

The sky is a bit bluer not.
The tree a bolder green.
Suddenly, the devil's face doesn't look so mean.

Tears of Fire
alex a Jun 2015
Look into my sad eyes
And tell me I am all you have ever wanted.

One day you left
without regard
and took all of me with you.
For days I lingered throughout the lonely halls
searching for what was once mine,
so poise and careful,
it was one of a kind.
People ask from time to time
if it was ever found
My sad response,
"It never came around.
I'm afraid it was burned to the ground
and now the ashes lay within me.
Sometimes at night you'll here things,
look out the window and see me
digging and howling,
hoping for the emergence of my own self."
I truthfully don't know where I'm going,
But I know where I've been.
The torment must be put to rest.
The patronizing stares
and dreams of your face.
I only search for the end,
a gratifying and final death.

crowned head
alex a Jun 2015
watchful and weary
it's how he trembles and looks all teary eyed
every day from the long nights.
there's no look in his eyes,
he hides a disguise;
a mask said to be of honor and glory.
took the staff to his name,
was recalled as a shame
and never showed that face again.

here to go
alex a Jun 2015
breathing heavy.
heart is sore.
i can't handle this feeling.
darling, don't waste your time on me,
i'm hardly human anymore.
i'm not worth an ounce of your love.
i didn't come from a god above.

i pretended to see
truth in your eyes,
love in the lies.
but i couldn't believe.

Wings
alex a Jun 2015
Angel eyes,
daringly search for a rise in life.
You spend your days
with the weeping
and nights flying high.

Miss You Loving Me
alex a Jun 2015
Nothing can compare to the way
your lips touch my body.
The sensational delight,
it feels like soft silk and eating strawberries.
I know you don't, but if you ever would,
think of me laying here.
It's midnight, I'll be up all night
But I know that's not what you want to hear.
I don't drink, but at times like this
I wish I could.
I heard it soothes the brain, numbs your emotions.
I can hear your voice
over one thousand oceans.
I can hear the losses
of one hundred love poems.
Know that giving someone hope
is the best deed to ever do.
The table is turned
and now it's me who's daydreaming of you.

Lovey Dovey Lovely
alex a May 2015
It was you who kept the sun alive,
who didn't allow the flowers in my heart to die.
You made sure they were well-ok
and never failed to brighten my day.

In a room full of empty stares,
I wonder how we even got here,
And we stayed in that moment,
never to advance because
we know if we did,
the world wouldn't stand a chance.

Who Knows Anything Anyway?
alex a May 2015
Not a single thought in my head is my own.
Am I a person or a human clone?
I apologize for the crazy look in my eyes.
I'm still learning the difference between truth and disguise.
Just to remind you, I've been fooled many times,
I'm dull, worthless, and I have no use in this life.
True friends don't use and abuse,
but I fall right into the trap.
Makes me a perfect victim of a heartless attack.
It took me some years to learn,
most people aren't as good as me.
Call me boastful, but at least I get over jealousy.

Lost
alex a May 2015
Tick tock, the clock never stops.
We'll always hear lies,
well always fear doubt.
Compassion, love, affection,
three things I can't live without.
And then, it keeps getting stronger.
The longer I'm deprived,
the longer I want to prosper.
Baby, please, forgive me
and take me back to where home is.
I don't like it here and can't rid my mind of these thoughts.
They hurt my identity,
I don't stand for myself.
The toughest thing about this is
I don't realize I'm playing someone else.
alex a May 2015
the sun is out,
but i'm not smiling.
i think of you,
and i ponder of dying.

i only dream of living alone
in the world
with no one watching
where i'll never be heard.

where the sun shines,
and the flowers blow
nothing is expected of me
it's where i'll truly grow.

Where Has My Heart Gone?
alex a May 2015
We are the wretched, wicked,
sweet wandering souls.
We give and we take,
of course we're all fake.

They plundered the veins in my hearts.
Stole all the best goods
and shipped them far apart.
Forget the ****-heads and liquor thieves,
the worst offense is one seen so normally,
but it burns eyes and sews mouths shut.

Actions seen so normally,
but what's behind the curtain nobody sees.
Beware of nights like these
for the perpetrators all come at ease.

Repetition
alex a May 2015
Your cries don't help,
my forgiveness shows no worth.
Push me around like I'm nothing.
New voices are heard and bury mine
and all from the past.
I wonder if this was release for you or for me;
if the fault was yours or mine.
My words were true and actions just.
You just do it for the freeload; the thrill and the rush.
Destroyed, delicate vine,
will you ever be made into sweet red wine?
Only time will tell,
and even then, I will you well.

EDIT:
Actually, you reopened by wounds.
The blood pours out soon,
and there goes my words of mercy.
You know I'll always take you back,
but there will be a time
where I'll finally be sick of your lies.
one of my earliest poems
AKA a mess.

Just Call It Depression
alex a May 2015
Life is dull; music bores me.
Dancing is tiring; rhythm can't absorb me.
At least I'm not the only one
who plays these games purely for fun.
Someone held my gun in their hand,
took all the power held within me.
My feet don't control my body
and my mind and soul are disconnected.
I don't feel real, yet I always feel threatened.
This constant cycle is repressive and controlling.

Sour Patch Kids
alex a May 2015
Always looking for a mess.
Two doubles, four causes of trouble.
One never knew how to step out of her bubble.
Collectible memories gazed upon by the heavens.
We missed each other's presence, minds, and laughter.
But with our broken teeth and messed up heads,
we split up and ******* up.
Slowly still trudging through the rain,
some climbed over the mountains,
but I'm still on the polar side.
A racket of only true desire and passion,
but I stayed and never let myself go.
So, I cry here alone,
still sober, but soulless.

— The End —
