Poems and Unfinished writings

Since everyone's been show casing their writing, I decided to dig up some VERY OLD writings of mine and share them with you i used to be a VERY depressed person. Keep that in mind. I'm no longer sad anymore. but here's a few of the writings I like and if anyone calls me emo, I'll hurt you. :ninja: :ninja::

A Song

The piano plays it's melody,
And my eyes begin to cry,
I see a distant memory,
And begin to wonder why,
My hands move swiftly across the keys,
A sound so gentle and sad,
My soul travels the seven seas,
I think of happiness I once had,
The tune slows it's pace,
And the lights begin to dim,
My time of praise is over,
I lost and didn't win,
The moon shines brightly through the window,
Reflecting on the objects of my past,
It all went by so quickly,
It all drifted away so fast,
The song is now over,
But it will start again,
You can hear it drifting solemnly,
Gently on the wind.


Shy

I turn on the shower and sink slowly to the floor, letting the hot water pelt against my skin. It is the only place where I can get away. Just sit until the hot water runs out. Sometimes my dad will knock on the door, asking if I'm still alive. I answer of course, but sometimes I don't want to.
The shower lets me think, just think with no distractions. Lots of thoughts float into my head, like keeping silent. No one wants to hear what I have to say, or the fact that when I'm with my love, time stops and lets us dive into our own world. After he leaves and I am left to the house, I begin to think again.
I wonder if I belong in a mental institute sometimes, watching movies like that put ideas into my head. I'm almost like the crazy people in a way, yet I'm not. I'm "Different" as some people tell me so often. I'm "pretty" they also tell me, yet I still manage to avoid mirrors whenever they are near. I don't see what they see, and I don't know why.
I have no talents either, though some people say I can be anything, how do they know? They don't hear the voices in their head. Though some people have it worse than me. I don't care, I don't know them, I know me. Or do I? Do I really know who I am?
Stupid thoughts, stupid thoughts, I can feel the water growing cold. I stand up, feeling myself get a little dizzy. I turn off the shower, I open the door and the cold air slices through my skin like frozen snow does. I grab a towel, wrapping myself up quickly .
I sit there later in the kitchen, my dad ignoring me as usual, keeping himself busy with the history channel. My step-mother hums away while cooking.
I walk into my room, the smell of incense tickling my senses. I close the door tightly and collapse onto my bed. I lay back and stare at the ceiling. the sound from the cartoons on the TV pierce my eardrums and I pull on my headphones, closing my eyes, turning the volume up and drifting away into the music.
Music is my life, I imagine things happening with each song. Imagining things that happen only in movies. I try to be creative, but that's bad to do. Imagination doesn't prepare you for real life, it only prepares you to get hurt.

Note to self: Don't be creative.

Re: Poems and Unfinished writings

I really like them and can identify with the kind of stuff you have written - an excellent form of therapy too

Re: Poems and Unfinished writings

Very well written, Sephi. I particularly enjoyed your song lyrics (not in a sadistic way, of course! I just mean... I liked 'em, if that makes sense).

Re: Poems and Unfinished writings

I liked them both a lot. Digging deeply into sadness can allow you to clear the way to a deeper more meaningful life. It gives you strength I think. I have been there and had very similar experiences.
Massive rep had I the power :thumbsup:

Simplistic. ...Still VERY OLD poems
​

Wake up

I had a massive wake up today,
It's like you slapped me in the face and said "Hey!"
Your words came through to me, seeped into my skin,
I give up, I lost, you win,
Although what you said hurt me to the brink,
No worries, my love for you did not shrink,
You were wise,
You opened my eyes,
You knew exactly what to say,
I will choose the right way,
The road less traveled by,
I still often wonder why,
Why must I do this alone?
But wait, I'm not, When I'm in your arms I'm home,
Someday You'll come and take me away,
And in your arms I'll stay,
You will whisper soothingly in my ear,
When you do, I'll have nothing to fear,
I will not cry anymore,
The day I see you walk through that door,
I will wait for you forever,
Even if you can love me never,
I had a massive wake up today,
So believe me when I say,
I'm sorry,
Don't worry,
I'll be fine,
You helped me shine

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


In The Stars

The clouds part,
I can look at the moon,
I am leaving soon,
I close my eyes,
I go up and away,
I've gone over the stars,
Can you see me now?
Maybe not,
So many stars there are,
Could you count them all?
Could you pick mine out from the rest?
Could you harness it?
Put it in a jar,
Could you hear my whisper if you listened hard?
No I think now,
My soul has been caught,
In the stars


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Statue

A statue of me,
Crying,
Don't you see?
It's blood, not tears.

A statue,
Collecting dust,
Forgotten,
Unwanted.

A statue of me,
Breaking away,
Watch me sway,
Watch me fall, watch me crack.

A statue,
Collecting dust,
Broken, Lost,
Like a box in the attic.

A statue of me,
Shatters to pieces,
Forming shards,
That cut your feet.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Love..?

If it's real, if it's true love, than it's always there. You can pretend it's gone, and even move on, but that love is still there, in the depths of your mind, heart, and soul. Sometimes a single object triggers it all, and you're right back at the beginning, when the one you loved, watched you fall.

Re: Poems and Unfinished writings

"So I'm not a good writer, hell I'm not even mediocre.
I spend my days off dreaming up fantasylands and peoples imagining conflicts and plot points, and at night I scribble down what little I can recall and then continue to dream.
Churn the butter bake the bread, its all a process I guess.
That’s just the easy way of saying I suck at writing.
Breeding a false society is easy enough but I still haven’t produced a full body of work. I can **** out a few paragraphs but never a concise telling of events.
I have it all bottled up, I've kept track of all the notes, I shook it up but I can’t spill my load, like a damn Heinz ketchup bottle that just wont give it up.

Two thousand words and not one sentence"

this is all from my notebook nothing inparticular just rants and what not. like i said above i usually dont seem to finish much story writing but whatever this..um..rant could be called "The UNknown"

"Can you stand against the winds of change or can you sail forth into the unknown?
Without pondering that for long can you feel confident in your apathy?
The time has come to predict and accept the errors so long forgotten.
The future is certain but your existence will fade.
I dreamed I was swimming in the ocean the other night, when I came face to face with a blue whale. The immense size of the thing was unclear in the inky waters but my insignificance as he nudged past me was apparent, we are less than barnacles on the universes ***.
You should kill yourself.
Nowhere is it more relevant than in these states where we renounce our families and align ourselves with the currency. The government is stealing our spirits. The time is close and we are not ready. So much has turned in the centuries yet still we remain arrogant. The masses have all peed the bed and the sheets were cleaned; yet we’re still soaked. The outer spheres are out of reach and those so close are still unreachable. The might of giants is coming down an upheaval of sorts will return what was stolen. The misdeed was brief and the injustice will be simple: execution.
Don’t fear the reaper; bring him a nice bouquet of roses.
Why do we continue this charade? Do we really need another idol in these United States? I wouldn’t want to wait for the invasion to reform my fortress walls. No matter what happens this world is going down and I'm headed there with it. I’ll fix the roof and mend the arms on the coat but the cracks on the ground can’t be glued. When we fall we all go boom and this ruined lot will become our home, a mansion built by garbage men."

as much as I love other peoples writings, this thread was more for MY writings and unfinished poems. If you have something you would like to share you should make your own thread ^_^ ^_^
