I will help you from falling off this cliff
you've been hanging there for
days, weeks, months, years,
i'm not sure.
But now that I know,
I swear to you that I won't let go.

There are sharp, black rocks
peaking out of the raging ocean
where white foam bubbles on the wave's crest
the water makes your hands slip.
But now that I know,
I swear to you that I won't let go.

Take my hand and hold on tight
i'm bracing myself to share the weight
of the problems that make you want to fall
into those dark waters.
But now that I know,
I swear to you that I won't let go.

And it is not a waste of time
because I don't care how long it will take
days, weeks, months, years,
until you are yourself again.
Because now that I know,
I won't ever, ever let you go,
or God have mercy on my soul.
I wrote this awhile back and I can't remember why but um here... I hope you all enjoy it.

I always hid under the stars,
because they told me
they'd protect me
the way they protected you.
"It's the least we could do,"
they commented when
they thought I couldn't
hear them,
*"especially since we did
such a shoddy job
with the previous fella."

Heroes watched with empty eyes all thoughts they would leave behind. Are these answers or more questions? Angels leave with the chosen. Is even their system broken? why only I have awoken?
Who else is stranded down there?
****** broken secrets they share. Why am I feeling this isn't something I believe in?
Why should god judge a fish? Was it his wish that they could climb? Or perhaps learn how to fly?

Questions of death swirl around me.
Is she in hell?  Is that where ill be? I bear the name of crucifix. But hell and heaven do not mix.
Is this one of gods tricks?
ill take the weight of her sins if this is what it takes to win. Ill serve my code.
You can't keep her hostage from me. If she is not dancing free when I see the gates, ill tear em down with all of my hate. hell will not be her fate.
I love the lord but is it fair, the cross we all must bare?
I love god true. Please let me believe in you.
I know this sounds arrogant and preachy (I hope I'm not out of line) but as someone who has always had a problem blindly following god (even though I consider myself a Christian) I can't help myself from fearing and asking questions. :/

Violent ends to violent means. All turn into violent dreams.
enclose the walls, lock away, walk away, stay away all.
Leaves me alone. Piles of bones, past regrets. Ambulance dance to your romance.
no love is worth this trouble. Touch her again and ill burst your bubble. Cowards crawl here bullies too.
They will quake when they see what I do.
All the rage inside me warring consistently, eternally, externally, internally. Like a fraternity of sin. A battle that no one wins.
still I'm compelled to play. Keeps me alive for the coming day.
See how it is when you can't have your way. Someone's gonna make you pay. Maybe not me, but maybe someday.
Your head will hit the floor, have fun knocking on deaths door.
This poem is more or less a experience my sister had with her ex. Let it be a warning against anyone instigating abuse in a relationship. What goes around comes around.

Oh gone are the days of white sheets draped on propped up cushions;
Of safety in delicate, wavering structures only strengthened by imagination.

This fort is of unseen iron, steel and girders - bound and secured by all of my insecurity.

Upon you I bestow
The spell of fulfilment,
And shower you with
Sparkles of achievement,

Upon you I bestow
Nothing but the best,
Banishing all the evil
And leaving you the rest,

Upon you I cast
Happiness that will last,
Whatever disturbs your present
Or awakens from your past
Away with it I blast,

Upon you I cast
An invincible barrier,
Protecting you from any curse
Any that may evoke danger,

———

Lifting off any burdens
Causing you to break,
Drawing the curtains
On any regret or mistake,

On your checks I smoothly brush
Glitters, giving you smiles,
Any obstacle I shall crush
Whatever triggers your cries,

On you I softly blow
Twinkles of rejoice,
Making your heart glow
Lighting up you beautiful face,

On your forehead, a gentle touch I lay,
Putting you to sleep,
May your mind be at peace I pray,
No more will your heart weep.

the thorns
that cover your heart
seep out in words
dripping in violent
context

and i am merely
building walls
to protect myself

so do not tell me
that i am cold

Life is a chessboard
and as your devoted queen,
I will serve my king.
Dawn Anderson Jan 2015
In order to protect myself
I built a wall away from you
Hid behind it

In a way of defending myself
I cursed and yelled and kicked
So you wouldn't touch me

But I have failed
You get to me
Your words hurt

Everything ******* hurts
Even things you don't mean to do
They all hurt me

And even with my attempts
To stay strong
To be happy

**I have lost all control
Whatever
