Loving You
I fell in love with you
You made my heart flutter
Until it all came crashing down
I found your corpse slumped over in the driver seat
The garage door closed and a pipe from the back of the car to the driver side window
My love ...
Why did you leave me so
It tore me apart inside knowing that you were gone forever
I needed you, but you left in my time of need
That next month, they found my body in the same position I had found you
"Two lovers meet their ends in the same way", as was stated in the newspaper
I can't wait to meet you in the Woods of the Seventh Circle of Hell
We will be happy together for many an eternity
And I will still be loving you through everything
I Love You!
wished
the late nights lost in empty bottles
once overflowed with your soft voice
the haunting songs played on repeat
echoed off the white walls drowning
the sharp blades and blood on skin
lost in pain reflected from your eyes
the faded moonlight beyond windows
across the horizon the world fell silent
the lines of words you'd never read
all along i've always wished i was yours

The people we cannot see
There was a little girl
in the hospital
who saw ghosts
whose father
watched her
under fluorescent lights
Daddy, she said
babbling incoherently,
convinced -
complete belief
in the voices
that we cannot hear
that we cannot see
Darling, he said
there’s nothing there
please, stop
he is waiting for a nurse
we are waiting
out the nightmare
waiting for the medicine
that will create
total erasure
putting
the voices
away
Slap of the Hand
What if...
it’s memories
that fool around,
making you up
as you go
out into the crowd
...the face of a clown
mirrored in the
back of the mind...
Is it some migraine
or your heart
that pounds
like a fist...!
Asking if you haven’t
yet got the gist?
Vague allusions of
being some sort
of stupid ----
But that’s not it!
You were
the skipper
prowling after
happiness...
and blew it off
with a puffered kiss!
Do you remember this?
the curly hair
and pony tail
the sense of envy
in the market square...
Guilt has you licked
with its tides
snuffing out
the stars
in the iris
of your abyss...
You will always
ponder the sting
of your
misplaced wish...
and delve
haplessly
after it...

Drowning in emotions challenge @LiannaC
your light, my heart, my head, my shadow
I spend quiet moments screaming from my heart to my head about how I would run to your light from miles away, shining from years ago.
About how I know it's been a long time since your light searched for my eyes and skin, curiously and fondly, as you painted my shadow onto the ground where we met.
And how the world just keeps spinning.
I am loud and lost sometimes, from my heart to my head, in a quiet room, because I do not know how to make you need me.
And She Bravely Fought
A drop of blood
Fell on the mud
As she shed a lone tear
Her body dropped as she was,
Lead out of the door
And soon like the others
She was no more
Her family was torn apart
War and bloodshed ripped,
Apart every kind heart
The people were beaten,
Cut and whipped
Until from every man at least,
A drop of blood dripped.
Every day pain and torture,
Suffered she
Until her heart was filled with misery.
Every day she prayed to thee
That one day her country,
Would be free
Then finally come the fateful day
When the forces clashed,
In the month of may.
A warrior entered on a white horse
Standing tall admit the lying corpse
The way he fought,
The way he walked,
Gained admiration among people’s thoughts.
Praised was he for his kind eyes and smiles
His bravery was known for miles and miles
He was known as a legend
To make history
However to everyone
His face was a mystery
Finally towards the end of the May
The battle was to end that day
A hundred soldiers charged at him
But he fought he way
Through thick and thin
All of a sudden the battle stopped
All of a sudden his armour dropped
Everyone let out a gasp
For it was a WOMAN
Under man’s mask
Her lovely long blonde hair
With her eyes made a perfect pair
Before she hit the ground
She said
“Fight for freedom until you all are dead”
Her eyes held sorrow, grief and pain
As she remembered the enemy’s chain
The chain of pain and suffering, they had caused
Until every good man’s life was lost
A drop of blood
Fell on the mud
As she shed a led a lone tear
Her body dropped as she was led out of the door
As soon as the others
She was no more.
By Tamanna
i've dreamt about the stars
for three days in a row
i'm still trying to figure out
where i can find
the big dipper
and what that means for my life
i still replay the moment you
explained it to me
over and over in my head
and how i nodded and observed
at all of the wrong things
see i was too busy
daydreaming about you
to observe the stars in the nighttime
i thought having you
meant all of the stars in the sky
were already mine
but i should’ve known
stars are actually big balls of gas
and so they all eventually burn out
and so did we.

Guarding(Gardening) The Coast_ _Leading(Reaping) To Your Liberation
Each day rises,
streaming against two lips,
yesterday and tomorrow,
spoken vows,
confessing promises,
keeping my love for you;
forever in memory,
eternally sacred,
alive atop my chest.
Wasn't my love for you at once overwhelming?
I kissed you with all that I am,
only to have you die in my arms,
but,
wasn't this overabundance a prequel to rapture?
We have carried this mission thus far.
Awakening with the weight of your dreams,
not just dreams of you,
dreams that are yours.
I have found that this heaviness is mostly gratitude,
gratitude that circulates through me.
Keeping my feet grounded,
as i travel your body,
the both of us
aware of our entanglement,
twisting or drifting,
drowning within this love oceanic,
each in debt to save the other.
You Take my Breath Away
You take my breath away.
But not in that way.
I am but suffocated by the thought of you.
I lie kicking and screaming and yet no one runs to me.
You take my breath away,
Not in that way, you see.
I scream in my mind, I ache at the thought of falling before you.
You have but tormented me,
Held me captive.
Now I find it tough to breath,
For you have taken my breath away from me.
Making my life but a burden
-Since to breath is to live, I fear this emballed state.
And I have not the power to escape the grip of your power over me.
Life and breath removed; for,
You’ve taken my breath away from me
No, not in that way, you see.
You’ve taken away every vestige of me
And the power of me is gone indefinitely.
The might that I had is hidden in fear.
And the me deep within is calling for code blue
Because I knew instantly that you’d take my breath away
Tho I never thought it would be in this way.
