Goodbye Kiss

 

 

  

The past is gone.

Time to forget.

So that we each can move on.

Kiss goodbye your regret.

 

The future waits.

Give one last glance.

Put what happened behind you.

Give tomorrow a chance.

 

Treasure the lesson,

That yesterday brought.

Tomorrow beckons.

Don't linger in thought.

 

The past is the past.

The future a wish.

Let go of your memories

give one last goodbye kiss.

Dew

Even if you know it,
You see what's in my head.
In the past, these feelings couldn't exist.
in the end they always fled.

With you I am purely content.
You always make me smile.
Meeting you was a great event,
Though at the time you seemed quite vile.

This is all I wanted to say,
Think of me while you're away.
When you wake, away from home's morning dew,
Just remember I love you.

Procrastiantion

It’s been some time since I felt poetic.

Now you ask why I don’t write.

Lately I’ve been apathetic,

Though my life has seemed quite bright.

  

So my friends, this one’s for you,

Not a verse about sorrow or salvation.

I hope your good grades don’t say adieu,

Now I've aided your Procrastination.

Best Belated Wishes

I heard it was your Birthday

That happy time of year

When friends gather and celebrate

With gifts and cake and cheer.

  

Step back and take a moment

When the partying is done,

Look back on all that’s happened

We wish you joy in the year to come.

  

So to anyone who knows Jessica,

I’m glad you’ve had such luck.

I know you’ll never forget her,

She’s like a horse that bucks.

  

You have amazing passion

That, nobody can deny.

Now take a moment to reflect,

On how the past few years have gone by.

  

Happy (Belated) Birthday Jess J

Be Forewarned

You wanted to play this game.

WARNING: he stakes are high.

You think that you can win my heart?

I’m going to make you cry.

  

Confusing fact with fiction

Just makes you easy prey.

However, when you toy with me,

Know I won’t play your way.

  

Do you still think you can win?

You think you own my mind?

You try to toy with me in love

Your heart I'll choose to bind.

  

I’ll raise your hopes

Then drop you down.

I’m going to win this war.

  

I’ll break your heart.

I’ll crush your soul.

You’ll still come back for more.

   

You think I am your ally.

You think I’ll break or bend.

This game of love you think you play

Will cause wounds none can mend.

  

I thought you might be fun to toy with

But heart and mind to weak.

You weren’t even a challenge.

Not just my heart you seek.

  

What happens when you play this game?

You get hurt, I’m bored.

Call me a soulless heartless bi***?

You started this you fraud.

  

So to all those who toy with love,

Expect that you’ll get played.

‘Cause I know when push comes to shove

None leave the field, unscathed.

[I haven't posted anything lately so I thought I should. I wrote this a while ago and at the time I obviously wasn't feeling very empathetic or compassionate. I didn't really take this from personal experience, it was more that I was bored and had a pen and paper. I don't remember exactly how I started thinking of this but I believe it related somehow to the book I was reading at the time...]

Deception

Anger is hidden,

Walk away, try to forget.

Hatred, forbidden.

Words unsaid, leave regret.

    

I cannot forgive,

Until I explain my hurt.

False happiness I give.

Allies now disconcert.

     

Smiling at your lies,

Pretending that all is right.

Deceit in both our eyes.

Remember every fight.

Untouched Memory

Covering the horizon,

Obscuring my future.

Clouding inspiration,

Memories of my past.

  

Regret is now what binds them,

Cannot be forgot.

Memories entwine them,

The lies that once I fought.

  

In my belief I falter.

What veils soul from sin?

All illusions shatter.

Truth shall falsify.

  

Forgotten voices tremble,

Lost within my head.

My mind can’t see the future,

Now my past is dead.

  

Silence now falls softly,

Undisturbed, untouched.

Dust covers my memory.

Forgotten, what I lost.

[I wrote this a while ago, I haven't really been writing much lately, but I think this was one of my more...um...poetic poems...]

Together

Keys

[So I haven't posted anything in a while and I found this. This was one of my first ever attempts at poetry and looking back...I sucked...still do a bit. This one is so bad it made me laugh. You will probably laugh too, if you do then please let me know. It comes complete with the original primary school pictures. It wasn't about anyone in particular, but anyway, enjoy.]

I tried to keep my heart under lock and key,

In case you might not fancy me.

But when you turned and looked my way,

The ice that surrounded it melted away.

  

The chain unravelled, I heard the key click.

I’d felt like I was under a ton of bricks.

You unlocked my heart and set me free,

But together forever is how I wish to be.

Gyration Elation

Empty is my mind

Now that I’m standing still.

Fluid were my motions,

Moving to the sound.

  

‘Twas like a drug,

The music.

But now I do not move.

I no longer have the will.

  

I did not wish to stop.

Don’t know why I begun.

But I felt pure elation.

As in circles I spun.

Missed Opportunities

I

do

Know

That you

Aren’t happy.

So hear me now.

Read the words I write

And read right to the end.

The world is a ruthless place

Filled with anger and despair.

Some are cruel and vindictive,

People who cause you pain.

Not all care about you.

Some wish you’d

Leave.

A

World

At times

Is a place of

Sorrow and grief;

Trouble, regret, lies

Distress, anger, fury, rage,

Resentment, hatred, loathing

Revulsion, detestation and death.

No question that the world is sad.

Obviously some people are bad.

All have to live through loss.

Most will wish for what

Once was.

   

And others will miss you.

[When I wrote "ive" in the heart, it should've said "give", It5 was also supposed to say "cry with you"]

Why?

I don’t understand.

You do not speak to me.

You no longer look my way.

Why?

I’m afraid I do not see.

  

You’re the same person

You were before I knew.

Now you just avoid me so.

Have I changed to you?

  

I thought you liked to be with me.

I thought you were my friend.

Your secret is yours to keep

But friends I wish to be.

  

Why do you think that this would change things?

You have not changed to me.

Why have I to you?

Why do you avoid me?

My Quest Unknown

My life seems empty,

Cold, not warm.

I feel so helpless,

Lost and forlorn. 

  

I wonder now,

What am I worth?

What’s my place in this world?

What’s my place on Earth?

  

I go through each day,

Just like the rest.

Is there a price to pay,

To live a life that’s blessed?

  

So I ask myself,

What is life for?

Will someone show me?

Will you open that door?

  

Not one will explain,

Not even jest.

For, this is my moment,

This is my quest.

[Another piece from long ago...]

Chocolate

I found you once,

Inside the kitchen.

You started this,

Insane addiction.

On the bench,

Was where you stood.

The taste of Chocolate,

Sweet and good.

   
     

      

I found a substance,

Which helped me beat,

This addiction,

However sweet.

Not indeed,

The force of will;

But a Rainbow,

Coloured pill.

   

Although this drug,

Is so sublime,

Unfortunately it,

Makes me rhyme.

I'm addicted,

And I know it.

But maybe I could be

A poet.

[So, I haven't posted anything in a long time. I found some poems which I wrote a long time ago, and I thought while I haven't written much lately I'd share some. I wrote this one in Primary School and I thought that you may find it amusing. (Some of the poem's I've put up previously are also just one's that I've found from a long time ago.)]

Interperetation of Inspiration

Lines cover pages

Black ink and tears.

Warriors of past ages,

All conceal their fears.

Splatters on the paper,

Interpreting sin.

Art deserves a savoir,

Just wasting ink, my pen.

The darkness now comes swiftly,

No space left untouched.

Imagination cloudy.

Inspiration gone. All’s lost.

Fingertips Tracing The Moonlight

Fingertips

Tracing the moonlight.

Whisper softly.
  

Imagine

A world

Away from here.

Escape from this,

From you.

     

  
Your words so sweet

Leave a bitter taste.

Thoughts of bliss

Bring only tears.

  

There is no love

No happy ending.

Heartbreak

Is all that will come to you.

  

Again and again

You shatter

You break.

  

I am responsible.

I’m to blame.

I hurt you

Again and again.

  

Each of your tears

Makes me hurt more.

Empathy.

Responsibility.

Reminding me I failed.

  

I can’t protect you.

I failed to do so.

All I do is cause you pain,

Suffering,

Tears.

  

I can’t believe you.

It would break me.

It hurts me now.

  

Each doubt

Brings me closer

To all the tears

I never shed.

  

You can’t be right.

You mustn’t love me.

I won’t  break down,

Won ‘t believe.

  

Nobody believes you.

You’re so innocent.

You’ll learn.

  

I can’t love you.

Never.

Don’t cry. Forget.

  

Learn.

You will learn.

Cliché. fairytale. Happily ever after.

They don’t exist.

What you want can’t be.

  

You’ll slowly be corrupted.

Learn about the world.

Your innocence

Will fade away.

  

The scars from tears

Will remain,

When innocence is lost.

Scars I made.

  

I want to escape

To a place where your tears

Give me no pain.

But your suffering

Brings me back.

  

Cold-hearted, soulless

I return.

  

Fingertips tracing the moonlight.

Imagine.

Whisper softly

“Your tears give me no pain”

Choices

I want to get to know you.

I want us to be close.

I’m happy when I’m with you;

I think that you are too.

  

I miss the time we spent,

Like no one else was there.

Do you know what I meant?

I hope you know I care.

  

Last time we were together,

You acted differently.

Do you still feel the way you did?

Do you want to be with me?

  

Was I acting different too?

I know I must have been.

I never want to lose you.

Does that mean we cannot be?

  

I know I really like you,

As more than just a friend.

But if we get together,

Will our friendship end?

   

What happens if our friendship

Is ruined by this test?

I don’t want us to lose this.

I don’t know what is best.

Entwined Eternally

Light and darkness,

Black and blue,

Sun and Moon;

Forever entwined in an eternal dance.

  

Bring life to the world,

Bring light to the night.

Each among the stars;

Burning, glowing, waxing, waning.

   

Forever connected,

Never touching.

Barely ever crossing paths,

But following one another faithfully.

   

Each one circling.

Night would be dark,

If they lost their trust.

An unbreakable bond ties them,

  

Shown bringing light to the world.

The path to Light

Shadows fall.

Like broken glass on sand,

They cut, but are worn away.

 

One place, one moment,

Where all light is gone,

Radiance is missing.

 

Shadows are cast,

Like the reflection of sun’s rays.

A mirror or truth.

   

Graceful despair.

What imitates truth is only,

Persuasive lies. 

 

Surrounded by light,

An island of misery,

Of desolation and hopelessness.

  

The shadow finds all.

None can run forever,

None can escape from it.

  

Misery is the path to joy,

Sin to redemption.

Shadow shall lead to all light.

[Thanks to Jessie for the title]

Beautiful, Frustrating, Imperfections.

Each line,

A new beginning.

Each stroke,

A step of my journey.

 

Perfection,

My aim.

Impossible.

 

Flaws emerging;

Beautiful,

Frustrating.

 

Pen and paper,

Flawed,

Scarred.

 

My imagination,

My mind,

My soul.

 

On parchment,

All wrong,

Disintegrated.

 

Structuring,

Mapping out,

My journey.

 

Destination,

Unknown.
