I wrote to you on a paper boat
Those questions in my heart,
I wrote to you on a paper boat
It sailed fast, slow and then a stand still,
The wetness seeped in, the ink bleeded ...

I expected you to raise your head,
Reach out to rescue the boat on puddle,
Some dreams of mine, you might have saved,
The bleeded letters, you might have traced.

All my antics not withstanding,
The soaked boat slowly sank,
My eyes flitted between the boat and you,
Still hoping you will race to its rescue...

When the boat slowly sank,
The ripples died a slow death,
Your head moved in my direction,
"Phew! I am done for the day", you said.

The blushing barn barks
With bleeded hues
Gutted girders
The once held the strict structure
Now hold hollow hidey holes
For all the remaining vermin
While the festering flesh
Of the butchered beasts
Burn the sinuses of strangers
Who walk through the burnt broken building

When He/She is in pain
He/She tried not to write
With the grave thought
When
He/She turned gray
With the closed eyes
In the blur of night
Till the threshold
He/She bleeded words
That escaped as

T
E
A
R
S

And
T E A R S
Turned out
As an unapologetic beauty
A morbid sanity
Of eternal release
Genre: Dark Observational
Theme: When one is in pain, he/she just wishes to know, whose painkiller works || Touching Lives || A Call For Humanity
Note, hint, how to read: If you are gentlemale, just read he, and if you are lady, just read she.

Axe
I followed the sickness of her mind
I followed the hopelessness in her faith
I followed her to the darkest place
I followed her into a sharp glass
I bleeded her empty dreams
I cried her noxious tears
She took me down
Buried me under her skin
Who am I?
Blinded by a feeling deep inside
Blinded by the need of perfection
Where am I?
I hear no rational words
I see no light at all
Inhaling each question to my brain
I grew danger to my soul
She painted my mind with rage
She was the ugly answer
She was my hopeless years
I'm an axe cutting all the darkness
I'm out to drift away

A Prologue, running
Two thousand
And six hundred days.
It spanned across him, realisation.
Of the tale that had begun
In a quiet bower of snow.
It would be the road,
Never taken with her
That is most regrettable.
A sorrow, unyielding
It bleeded till none remained
A crevasse in their lives.
Filled with years
Of substitution, illusion
Of having someone else.
Her credence in him,
Biased, she persisted.
Aphrodite incarnate.
Seeking an Ares,
Futility, forgetting her Hephaestus.

Two thousand
And six hundredth day,
Now transcending to the next.
Self inflicted desertion,
Guilt of a re-established
Trust in the "once was a stranger".
Has ever the velvet
Loosened from the wrist?
A bond tied ages ago.
Eternity stands challenged
By days finally spent
Together, as one.
A final laugh,
The Universe, it's cheeks
Straining to the limits.
They, fire and smoke
Never apart; for smoke shall
Still rise from a dead pyre.
The prologue has brought
Nought but the turn-

The arrival of their final Epilogue.

you

were an instand-seed
all it took was a little water
and then you bloomed

you tasted
like harp-music
you sounded
both purple and green

you
thoroughly romantic
talked about a girl - and the dream

i took a sip of you
in order to taste the purple and

green

i know why you tasted salt
it was my water -
it was my fault

you
the little seed
harptea
only bloomed once
only bleeded once

but now
it'll always be my fault

(if Lin Manuel Miranda turned my Breakup into a Broadway Rap)

Ladies and gentlemen
Of the jury
I stand before you today
And surely
I hope that you understand
As I see
We have criminal amongst us
One who commited ****** in the first degree

A young man named Paul
Was slain in a Forrest
And as I recall
It was on the twenty-fourth of February
On a day when he was happy
And filled with merry

We have evidence to suggest he was not alone
You see
We found two cups in his car
One filled with coffee,
the other with tea

A few hours later two joggers went astray
Where they found the body all bled out
And about to decay
His heart ripped from his chest
Laying on the palm of his hand

(Defendant)
"Objection Your Honour"

(Lin)
I'll let the witness stand...

(Judge)
Does the defendant have any claims to what he states?

(Defendant)
Your honour, Mr. Paul and my client were in fact schoolmates.
Shared the same classes and friends,
there is no debate
But death was his very own ill-sighted fate.

For as I understand he knew this could happen
He knew it was a risk he'd have to take
Make no mistake
As far as I know he saw the hook
And still took the bait...

(Lin)
But your client forgot to mention
the promises that she made
She likes him
Trusts him
But, oops...she made a mistake

And in the middle of a gentle conversation sought,
Your client cuts open his chest
separating his heart
from his thought
And succeeded as it bleeded and all of his emotions retreated never to be repeated

(Serious*) Your honor SHE has murdered love!

(Judge)
How do you answer to these allegations?

(The accused)
"Guilty I am not"

(Lin)
But why are your hands still bloodstained from his heart?

Your honor we have spoken to a witness
And your Honor I Protest this,
I detest this
I will not let her play the victim
And have an innocent man to blame
For things she's done to have him framed
While his chest is wrapped with chains
Could we at least have her detained 

(Defendant)
Objection!

(Judge)
Sustained!

(Lin)
Could we at least have her for questioning?
Cause the only way we'll move on is if we know

(Judge)
I'm sorry Paul...
But you'll just have to let this one go
If Lin Manual Miranda could turn my break up into a Broadway rap...with me as him...
Aching chambers
Sullen froths
The raven angers
As hope is lost
Consumed oh hallowed mind
As the feeble and broken, cried

Beneath empty boardwalks
Townsmen bleeded across
Still I find myself in gawk
As the dawn of man drew close
Reality found me encased
In an existence duly erased

"Im the only one here right?"
Says a feminine voice
It was of a lost lover
To whom I never knew.

In a plane of consciousness
Submerged in repose
I sat there, cornered, enthralled
A living dream I am in
A dream I never arose.
Inspired from a midnight nightmare and a day-dream...

(The abducing of the soul) By meself..  The abradant Heartache soo strongly felt, The pillars do melt , for they feel the abstinence thats needed. Choked, and bleeded out, Searched, lost found.Only for many to doubt..Yet its right in front of us friends, The metal ink pen spells out all on graffitied walls..Emptied stalls, where strangers do strange things..The bite of the sting makes many feel safe..Such Bemauling of faces, all races displaced. They follow what man has to offer, A downfall of bellmetal cans, They wear them, they compare them, as what they wish for comes to its end.. Books and books stacked upon mammals knowledge only to lose themselves..Can they not see, the belonging and needs that they desire are all right beside..No need for reasoning, No need to hide, for they must discover at their own will..Yet time runs short, the bountiful courts close as Mid til noon.. Blackhearted faters are doomed, For they sought the wrong theories, No coadjusting spiritually, For what they lost was foresight..The souls in all freight as  dram~shops stay loose, The dragon seeks who he may desire, Hes suited in fashionable Boots.. No gantry to protect the most wonderful hearts, For they keep on looking for what the world destroys..Young girls and boy's why do you seek in emptied chests? Give god your all, Hear his call, For what you will find will not be Pleasureable..But will bring you back to the beginning, where the treasure was all along...Seek and you will not find..But SEE and your eyes will Not be blind.....

She was happy and angelic
Just like a Disney princess...
Believed in an asthetic world which never existed...
Believed in people who didn't know how to love...
She celebrated each and every day with them
Gave them her heart and trust....silly!
But how could she forget...
Neither it was Disney nor she was a princess.
They hurt her with their knives of words and actions.

She bleeded everyday more and more...
But she was not a loser...as it ain't in her blood
She picked up her sword and the bruised pieces...
Put them back with the bandaids.

They thought of her as a dream...that could be broken easily,
But she is a nightmare...dressed up as a dream.
In this world of princesses,
She will be a Queen...
Now don't get near her...you'll get burned
Her heart is all black...
I saw her pretending to be happy.
But now I guess.... she is tired.
The demons that once played and made her cry
They are bowing down to her.

Even though she is all black  
But I'll miss the old her...whatever she was
Atleast she was mine.

🖤
To all the girls out there who first lost themselves but then found a Queen inside them.
it was picked
it was lied
it was bleeded

its colors were converted to blood
someone shot
he did not love

as he might be white
as he might be intelorant
and wanted to vanish the Muslims

as he said," they are nothing
so they must not be anything
and he is still innocent

the flower is accused
it is the terorrist
love is the message of all religions

You are my shoulder and soldier,
to live is to love you.
From you I gain happiness,
yet I experience sadness.

The rain reigns in my heart,
my sorrow is like an arrow struck in ny heart.
Hurt like a blade cut through,
I'm bleeded and wounded.

I expect too much to realize not,
you love me no more.
I became a starless night,
full of sorrow and emptiness.
I broke that middle bone
the one they call the spine
It fell apart today
while I stood in line.

I was waiting for some love,
or some appreciation
I broke my back to day
in mid frustration

while i handed my pride to you
and begged that you would keep it

Keep it clean for me,
cause later i would need it.

My back bone broke, it even might have bleeded.

and with out that stupid thing i dont think i ever would have
succeeded.

So now that my back bones gone
my spine has dissapeared
I guess i will just wither away
This is always what I've feared .

Cute simple innocent heart
which will never hurt anyone
Misfortune bombarded it and took its innocence

It was tortured
shattered into pieces
Stepped thousands times
broken million times
It has bleeded
and lost more blood it needed

My heart
only broken pieces of emotions are remaining
it was once molded with love
but later betrayed

its my heart
i love it
sometimes i want to save it
and keep it away from anybody
but it becomes vulnerable
and loneliness attack it

I tried to give it to those i trusted
but they played with it and left it dusted
i know its my heart
please tell me what to do with it
i hate to see it in tears and pain

My heart
is in a cruel world
covered by enormous darkness
i will never change it, soon or later
but i will be patient
to give it to the soul it deserves
just wanted to write about my heart
'Oh, thine sweets
One of honey~phrases
of all ages,
Forgiveness!

O, imprisoned of hates
Walks stormy days
Night without fires,
longing souls.

'Oh, bleeding hearts
my souls wandered ~in.
For thy, desert thing of my family.
Ah, forgiveness?!

Oh, Teary eyes
Sweetened by lights,
Consumed by unearthed ~words.
Peace, inside!


Oh, forgiveness
Bleeded~hearts
My dear, souls
find it's course.




I, FORGIVE YOU!
VICE... I FORGIVE YOU!

She was running here and there
as if lost in a maze...couldn't find home
She was crying brutally...eyes red and swollen lips.
As if a child...who got separated
from his mother, on a crowded street.
Her inabilities were pulling her down
in a dark well...
falling deep in a dark well...where her failiures echoed.
There were wounds that she had not filled
and now they had bleeded on others.
She was trembling and crumbling inside
as she looked here and there...
for some light...
finding her lost pieces.
It hurts when you can't be yourself.
T R S Oct 2019
Try it.
Please try.

I wish you would

I bleed.
I bleeded.
And knew it wasn't good.

You held my spine.
High.
I slept in every morning.
But I knew.

I had known that what I had wanted was a life...
A life I would never get back.

die for Him so i can breathe in
breeding seeding seeking the Truth believe in
fasting no passing a demon not demon-seeking. bread breaking though, Truth i be in

He doesnt forsake your praise your cries
and He kills destruction He hates them lies
the Lord the Son died for you take your prize

Knowing nothing
is better than
knowing it all.

They caught
my pain,
found a way to
make it bigger.

The blade made me run
out of blood
while it was stuck in my back
and with each, "you can trust me",
it bleeded even more.

Lying,
such a common thing for people to do.
The bad thing here,
people around me
are very good at it.
“Unknown”
F. Panerio (11-21-2023)

Stormy weathers
Bleeded inside
Wounded, within!

Echoes of silence
Chains within
Time, for change!

Closing times
Bed of nails
Yet, thinking of you!

So, I say
Unknown…!

I’d hold my breath, I bit my lips, I stayed strong, I didn’t shed a tear, I didn’t break,
You beat me with the power you stood in
The words you said kills my kindness
The lies you told made my hatred
The love one you took from me killed my blooming buds
Though I stayed strong and I wiped my sadness like an umbrella protecting rain from my shoulders
I stayed strong, how long I hold until you broke me,
My tears flooded the city of my kindness
My hatred killed my love
My sadness shattered me into pieces that I can’t count
I picked myself up but my finger tips bleeded
The lies you told to take my love
To take my life
To break me in pieces
To **** my dreams
To take what I worked for in life
You took without a thought
Without a care
Without a blink
The lie you told that made me break
That made me a monster
The monster that started the games you played
The game you thought you won
A game you should have never started
But you didn’t care of what you’ve done. You didn’t care

one lonely night while the moon was so bright I sat at the balcony in my home little sweet home which is standing in a little bit distance at  the seashore of small island in Eastern, I looked around, the charm atmosphere outside,it was so strange that night so beautiful in sights, the smell fragrant breeze by the cold wind touched on my skin,  with the  gentle mist outside made it sprinkle in scented flower in the cloth garden, the  enchanting views of the amazing light of the moon in heaven, like the diamond so bright in wide space illuminating, for a moment has a wonderful  memory acrossed on my mind, the memories about the beautiful love story has faded by the time, but in deep inside it's  still remain and kept forever then suddenly I recall the youthful days from the past so sweet changing conversation toward each other, you thought me It was forgotten, no no my love you were be wrong, all memories  travel back in the past which you and I connecting so fast, in that moment, how joyful I feel into my  bleeded heart by a  millions pained so endure at hurt, but the soul still remain lonely quiet at the dark corner at the right, because her shadow quiet embraced and connecting the spiritual love endlessly both desires.

Confidence ruined
Success abandon
Thrills drowning
Second thoughts happening
As the far cry goes
I'm hitting every nerves i throw
I know I am not really okay
But I'm a be fine
Just as long as I stay clean I'll be more then alright
The pain is real for a reason
What a timing especially woth a kick start to a new seaon
He's my motive
He is gonna be 5 this year
And my youngest sis needs me
In fact I'm well needed
Forgot about the times i bleeded
Mission after mission when will it all be over
It's like I'm chasing a single clover
Hell I'll pack up a wish
And hope to go the distance
Something hopefully simpler than this
Nellie 55 Dec 2020
I've always put others before me
Even if it was hurting
But that's the way it'll always be
The amount of kindness that's need
Evwn if I was the one who bleeded
My health of a mental state will be put last
One call away and I'll show up pretty fast
Hopefully we can stick together and put in the past

— The End —
