Get Me Out
Destiny Copeland May 2013
I've spent years in a hole
That got deeper each day
Then somehow I found a rope
Now i'm slowly falling
Back into my dark hole
And it's deeper than ever before

The Deep Blue
Destiny Copeland May 2013
The ocean beckons me with it's beauty
I approach with caution
In a hypnotizing step
Stopping just before
Wet meets land
The waves charm me in
I abandon the unneeded
And let the tides pull me out
Farther and farther from shore
Inhale
Exhale
One last breath
And I surrender myself to
The Deep Blue
I'd appreciate all CONSTRUCTIVE criticism please and thank you :)

Someone Like You
Destiny Copeland May 2013
My body aches for nothing
Except a warm embrace
From someone like you

Someone who brought light
To the someone I could be
Someone who ended
The darkness I held within

I've come to realize
Someone like you won't do
But what I really desire
Is you

Burn
Destiny Copeland May 2013
My love for you has endured
All these years apart
With every moment
Of my lonely existence

How did this spark
Grow a flame
That burns on nothing
But my hope for us

I spend my time thinking
Maybe
someday
Your fire will meet mine

And it will spread
Bright enough
For the world to see

Mine
Destiny Copeland May 2013
As we slowly part
I hope for just another
Enchanting embrace

Though never too intimate
I long for something more
I guess it's too much
To ask from the universe

How can I have everything
But also have nothing

With you I don't feel as if
I'll completely crumble
But as if
I'll melt into your warm body

What hinders such a perfect fanatasy?
Is it the other lusting eyes?
Or my lack of self worth?

What ever the matter may be
I will fight past it
For you are meant to be

A Love Not So Everlasting
Destiny Copeland May 2013
Love
The feeling felt so timeless
I was naive
Time destroyed it
Days, weeks, then months passed
And soon you envisioned
A future without me
What a pity
I was blind to it all

Stuck
Destiny Copeland May 2013
Since the moment we met
I began to dig
The grave for our love

And it got deeper
With each day
I witheld the truth

Only because I know
That you'd prefer
Someone better

The Ugly Friend
Destiny Copeland May 2013
Recently I've noticed
Out of all my friends
I'm liked the least
And ignored the most
By the opposite ***
Recently I've wondered
Why
And I have concluded
That I am

Alone
Destiny Copeland May 2013
We sit in a row of four
I'm on the edge
On the outskirts
Why don't they talk to me
Until they need something
I thought we were all friends
Maybe I'm just the worthless one...

My Happy Poem
Destiny Copeland May 2013
I tried to write a happy poem
But my hand stayed still
My paper stayed blank
And my mind was empty

So instead I wrote this poem
Of my failed attempt
To write about an emotion
I haven't felt in so long

Look Deeper

The surface of the water
Is first to be seen
But the real beauty lies
Beneath the sea

Tattoo
Destiny Copeland May 2013
You were happily recieved
Although you cause me pain
Made a huge imprint
Unlike a picture or a name
I was young & foolish when I got you
But I guess it's ok
I'm actually grateful
That you'll permenately stay

Distractions Wanted!
Destiny Copeland May 2013
Wanted!
Distractions for my sadness
All ideas are welcome
Make these feelings disappear
And you'll be rewarded
With the satisfaction of saving my life

On the Hunt
Destiny Copeland May 2013
I spent the past few years
Wasting my time and searching
For something that would never be found
No map or GPS will lead me to my treasure
Because I have to find it
Within myself
This is a life-long journey
I'm willing to take

I Hoped. You Hurt.
Destiny Copeland May 2013
Tonight I saw a shooting star
So I made a wish
I hoped that one day I'd feel happiness
I hoped that one day I'd feel safe
I hoped that one day I'd feel loved
I hoped that one day
You'd make me feel this way
Instead you caused me pain

Love I'll Always Regret
Destiny Copeland May 2013
When we met I didn't know
How much you would effect me
I felt alive!
I felt free!
I even felt happy :)
Suddenly something changed
You didn't act the same
Your words turned cruel
And caused me much pain
When we met I didn't know
How much you would hurt me
I felt alone
I felt used
I even felt ugly :(
I'll admit I regret
Being a pawn in your game
You still have my heart
And I still feel ashamed

— The End —
