How far are you willing to go?
How many limits will you push?
Can you make it to your breaking point
Before it becomes too much?
How many lies will you spit?
Before you realize that this is it?
When will you realize that you've met your match?
Someone that you will never trump.
When will you concede that love overpowers jealousy?
When will you admit that you're the chump.
The fool that took the bait, believed it true.
What happens then, when you lose?
What will you do when I look down upon you,
Casting you away like you did us,
Watch me as I turn my back, you sitting alone.
Watch as I leave you in the dust.
I never dreamed the day would come,
Where I'd have to kiss you good bye.
I always knew I'd feel your presence,
Always right here by my side.
And though you're still there,
I can feel it,
You're gone.
Lost to a world so far away from me,
Still and dreaming,
Never to come home.
You're in a better place, they tell me.
No more suffering, no more pain.
But their words could be a different language,
For they do nothing to change
How I feel.
Anger and hurt.
That you could leave me.
Sad and lost.
No direction to lead me.
Relief and hope.
No more guessing.
And that maybe, just maybe,
Things might get better for me.
She always loved him,
In her own way.
But he couldn't understand,
She never pushed blame.
She says he broke her heart,
Says he left her cold.
She says it's his fault,
Because the truth can't be told.
You could see she was lost,
Walking aimlessly, getting confused,
Losing herself, losing her friends.
Then she was gone, broken and used.
She knew the truth in her heart,
That she could fix what she had done.
But pride cut out her tongue,
So she turned to run.
She caught a glimpse of her reflection.
Her memories hit her hard.
They were dancing, they were laughing,
She ran fast, she ran far.
She slammed on his door,
Hoping he w
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
When life knocks you down, you get back up
Brush yourself off and go on.
But every time you fall, you can bet you will lose
and soon you can't count those that are gone.
After you suffer through the pain,
you realize they weren't real,
and you become stronger.
You learn the waves of life, the ups and downs
you figure out how to ride them
so when you're feet are knocked out from under you
you can stand to play another round
And after you suffer from the pain
you learn how to dodge
and you become stronger.
But when strength isn't enough
when you fail to rise again
you find that not c
Blue Skies
"Our father of Shangri-La,
Hallowed be thy name,
If the world turns over,
Save me from the fiery rain,
Keep me pure,
Keep me clean,
As the lotus grows,
I ask ye for forgiveness,
Keep me from the crows."
Blue skies loom before me, although I can only see red
Hatred has consumed me; dark thoughts fill my head,
My body has grown numb, no emotions left sincere,
A weight presses my chest; all that's left is unshed tears
The pain becomes my friend, the only thing that's real,
No more thoughts fill my mind and it all ends here
They watch as the young girl falls, taking her life
They think back on what it happened, for why
Colors Within A Box
I feel trapped, as if in a box
Ensnared by my own emotions,
Four walls made of steal
My capture the sole devotion
Pain colors the walls grey
While anger colors them red,
These colors are the most stable
Sealed to the floor with dread
Tranquility colors the walls blue
Though they are nearly invisible,
Happiness colors the walls pink
The color a figment of my imagination
Black emanates from the inside out
Showing my true desperation,
These are the true colors of my life
The true colors of my depression
Blood think with pain
Black with hate
Cold with mistrust
Empty of emotions
A shell to rot
A person invincible
Hell on earth
A fiery pain
The fiery rain
Falling down
Hit the ground
Wish to drown
End it all
Dare to fall
No one cares
Never there
It never mattered
The heart shatters
The window breaks
Cold wind whips
Blood stained lips
Laugh with death
Left to rest
Bother me none
The pain is done
Can't take it back
I won't let you
Live in the pain
It becomes your name
The world is cold
The skies are black
Death's laugh
Drawing you in
Forget the pain
Torture in pleasure
Why not?
What will change?
Why not end it
My Little Game
And I've let it all get to me.
I can feel it spreading.
The pain starts at my heart.
Moving more as it continues beating.
It hurts enough to tare me apart,
But I push it away.
It's not worth dealing with,
I'll let it finish me another day.
Trust causes me to hurt,
And believing the lies.
It makes me feel like dirt,
Knowing you can still look me in the eyes.
Am I that pathetic?
Am I that low?
That you can lie so easily,
And hurt me so?
Is it not obvious that it's killing me inside?
I guess it's not, it's all so easy to hide.
If you force a smile all the time..
Soon it becomes true.
If you force a laugh just
Fall to the ground,
The deafening sound,
Of the girl hurting inside.
Cut away all the horrid,
Try to make her forget,
The surrounding lies.
Try to gather all the trust,
Put it back together for us,
Help the girl breath.
Give her reason to live again,
Let her know it's not the end,
Let the girl see.
Falling forever,
Pain never ending,
Falling forever,
Please someone catch me,
Falling forever,
Heart never mending,
Falling forever,
Set me free
He promised her so much,
Then he broke her trust,
He never saw it coming,
Through all his lies and lust,
Deceit was his game,
And he played it well,
She calls his name,
Cursing h
I fell so hard
I fell so fast
I fell so hard
It couldn't last
Walking blindly
Causes pain
And not knowing
Is all in vain
Loving hopelessly
Is loving truly
Loving the unknown
Is loving fooly
Crying days
And crying nights
Causes fear
And ensues fights
Keep yourself from despair
Know his heart is truly there
Hours passed, minutes gone
The seconds ticking on and on
You where here but now you're not
And I can't believe what I forgot
I remember the way you smiled at me,
I remember how you smelled,
I remember how you gave your love,
I remember how you yelled.
I remember your pain and I remember your happiness,
I remember your hopes and I remember your fears,
I remember your goods and I remember your bads,
I remember your protection... and I remember your tears.
Hours passed and minutes gone
Your memory living on and on
I took you for granted and now you're lost
I'll never forget what forgot
Now I remember sitting in class,
You threat
I never dreamed the day would come,
Where I'd have to kiss you good bye.
I always knew I'd feel your presence,
Always right here by my side.
And though you're still there,
I can feel it,
You're gone.
Lost to a world so far away from me,
Still and dreaming,
Never to come home.
You're in a better place, they tell me.
No more suffering, no more pain.
But their words could be a different language,
For they do nothing to change

I've been writing poetry for years now. Since I was in middle school, at least. I just never shared what I wrote. Until highschool, senior year. I shared half of one of my favorite poems (half because it was all I could remember off of the top of my head) and everyone loved it. It was the first time I'd gotten real feedback on them.
When I write, its from my emotions or life experiences, nine times out of ten I feel what I'm writing. I'm usually dealing with part of or all of the situations in my poems. So you could basicly call it a journal, a diary. Which is why I've never shared my poems so vastly, until deviantArt, that is.
And I just h
:bulletpurple:Today my neice, Chiyenna, is two months old!! :love: :cake:
It is crazy how fast that little baby has grown! She's sooo much bigger. And she's so smart. I don't know what she'll do first, walk or crawl! And she's trying to say "love you" already. So, so, so cute!
:bulletblue:So I've discovered a new song.
It's "Some Nights" by Fun.
Ah-mazing song. It gets stuck in your head sooo easy.
Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KoU-cPl57Q
:bulletred:My brother has joined the Army National Guard!! I'm so proud of him. It's so nice to see him so happy for a change. He leaves Sept. 25. :aww: I'm gonna miss him!!

movie?
Mine's the Labyrinth.
:thumb81286271:
(The one with David Bowie and Jennifer Connely, not Pan's Labyrinth.)
And I swear everytime I watch it, I see something new. Or hear something new. Or re-realize something... Yeah.
I always feel like I'm watching for the first time. Which makes it totaly amazing.
And you gotta just LOVE the music... it's the kind that gets stuck in your head.
"You remind me of the babe."

How ever during that song Jareth sings "Slap that baby, make him free!"
I coulda swore it was "make him pee!" ...
