Windancer: Thanks ^^

Hm... this next one is very... dark. I really honestly wasn't exactly thinking when I wrote it. It's as if something possessed me when I did. The words just came out of my mind without me having to think about it.

Save my soul
Don't let me give in
Fables foretold
It's time to kill them

What is it worth?
All we are, fools
Anger and sin
Face the future, cruel

Time to let
Your heart turn the tide
Buy me the clock
Or be trapped inside

Whimpers and snarls
Whispers what's wrong
Cowering in corners
Yet still fine and strong

A hero in the night
Murdered before dawn
The sounds all around you
Asking what's wrong

Trust in the demons,
The angels, the fiends
Choosing to see them
Their thoughts are so free

Choose the right way
Or be stolen in end
Killed like the hero
Or deceived by the friend

It's all dark triumph
Though the light tries to break
The power inside 'em
And yet it still stays

Yield to the town
Or face subtle doom
Fire but drown
It's all up to you

Well, whatever possessed you has dang good poetry skills. ;D Seriously, though. You're right, it was...dark, but it was amazing all the same. Wonderful job, Moki. ^^

You can fall or you can fly,
you can sing or you can cry.
You can dream or you can list,
all the things the you have missed.

Your life, so troubled,
your life, so dark.
You're life, so full of tears,
How do you make it?
How do you survive your fears?

All seems lost, yet you still have hope.
You have nothing, not even family.
Oh, how can you see?
See the light...when your drownin' in the shadowy sea.

I would be so twisted, so twisted.
I would be so lost, so hopeless.
How can you survive all of the pain?
How can you survive the sorrowing rain?

Tears never fall, never streak your face.
How can you find that happy place,
when you're enveloped by the dark?

Unless you're saying "you are life", that's the wrong kind of "your". ;)

*facepalm* That was a stupid typo. I edited.

Those last few were really brilliant! good show!

Now here's my latest work, and its a subject almost everyone can relate to. hope you all like this.

======================================
From The Moment
======================================
Music By: Agony Of Fate
Lyrics By: C. Moore
======================================

Verse 1

From the moment
This chaos all began
I never believed
From the moment
The bottom fell out
I never thought it
Ever last this long
From this moment on
I walk alone, I stand alone

Verse 2

From the beginning
I should've known
This wasn't worth it
From these ****ing words
I found my release
From the moment
This whole charade began
I knew it was over
Before it even begun

Bridge

What was it you thought you'd take from me there?
Did you think I was oblivious to the traps and tormented hell around me?
Now it's ****ing over and I've moved on, I never needed your lies and deceit anyways...

(Chorus x 1)

From the moment
This hell began
I was never a believer
From the moment
This charade went full circle
I was long gone
From the moment
We started it was finished
From the moment
This whole charade began
I knew it was over
Before it even begun

Verse 3

From the moment
This deception began
I saw through the lies
From the moment
The spiral unwound
I knew it wasn't meant to be
Yet I was ignorant
Caught in a moment of weakness
I let you trick me again
From the moment of truth
You always let me down

Verse 4

From the moment
This ****ing charade began
To the moment of truth
To the final falling
I knew it was never real
From the moment
You lured me into this trap
I was too blind to see
The warning signs
So clearly there before me
Now this is all over
And I've moved on now

Bridge

What was it you thought you'd take from me there?
Did you think I was oblivious to the traps and tormented hell around me?
Now it's ****ing over and I've moved on, I never needed your lies and deceit anyways...

(Chorus x 1)

From the moment
This hell began
I was never a believer
From the moment
This charade went full circle
I was long gone
From the moment
We started it was finished
From the moment
This whole charade began
I knew it was over
Before it even begun

From the moment
This hell began
I was never a believer
From the moment
This charade went full circle
I was long gone
From the moment
We started it was finished
From the moment
This whole charade began
I knew it was over
Before it even begun

Solaris, you never cease to amaze me 8D Windy & Hunter, yours are awesome as well ^^

This a poem topic, the song lyric topic is in musicXD

Technically, songs are poems just with music to them, so honestly I see no problem with songs being here.

Ecliptica: Actually, she made that as a poem/song. Su... lol
Paws: Yus, I've noticed that! :O Good point! (8

Thanks everyone for the comments ^^ And nice new ones too!
Anywhos... I have quite a few new ones:

You're the Only One to Blame

You think a simple sorry
can make up for all you've done?
A taint of guilt, a hint of worry
causing scars to surface up?

It'll never change
Never be the same
As much as I'd like to think different,
we know the truth either way

The past can't be undone
Forgotten, hidden, or buried
You think it's just that easy?
No, the guilt is yours to carry

You should have thought through twice
Played fair game, learned to fight
cause in the end you pay the price
Eyes fill a gruesome sight

Go ahead
Try unraveling mistakes
Cause in the end
We're all the ones who pay
when you're the only to blame

Take a knife and stab a heart
might as well for mind a scar
Your actions proved fatal
lest you carefully sew the needle

And whether all can fix and mend
it's foolish thoughts
they will not bend
Broken, done, and full of hate
You're the only one left to blame

Could

Care to make a deal, fair child of pain?
or how about you, good, simple maid?

Good deeds plus good actions make for a strike
Bad choices, decisions, help them to bite

Claw and tear
rip through the skies
fly on their wings
or seek your demise

Time to check the old clocks of time
lest they burn down
You'll have not a dime

Look for the right, wrong, or good
Maybe just then, you'll know all that could

It

Take it, scar it, mend it, built it
See it, live it, face it, fear it

Pressured of life, release the frame
Determine the answer, not wild but tame

Come closer to me, stand still through the night
Hush but a word, expression of sight

True healings, true kill
Not broken but sealed

When all lays to rest, a snarl makes it's bed

Dot Dot Dot

Make your mark
Set me free
Let them rot
Forget the team

In bad times, call for help
Scream, bark, ask, or yelp

Tremble or quake
Your choice to make

Just kill the lock
and here: dot dot dot...

Mortal Supernatural

Spin the whole world
Right onto your finger
Watch it all turn
Dead eyes still linger

Take matters far
Dont lag behind
Destroy but to mar
It seems cant see right

What have you to do?
but fight the whole way
Confusion is dancing
and you have no say

Temperance and law
command but a mind
Collapse down and fall
Are senses so kind?

Mortal intuition, a force never found
Supernatural triumphs, impossible be bound

Beneath The Moon's Seal

Thats what I like to hear
my sweet a love so dear a heaven at the end of the pier
so lucid and clear

It shatters the darkest of fears
instead of crying a thousand tears
for a thousand years,
an angel stands at edens gate
between love and hate

The blood I taste is all I can take
for this endless sleep to wake,
to make this sadistic smile fake instead of real,
her wings take me to divinity

Under the shade of her wingspan
an eternal haven I feel,

The hellish nightmare begins to peel,
the beating heart starts reveal
the euphoria beneath the moon's seal

I haven't seen a haiku on here so far. So why not? Here are a few I made up randomly;

Sidewalk on the ground,
A glittering concrete sea.
Feet walk on the waves.

-----

Fiery fingers,
Grasping, pulling, at the night.
Reaching for the stars.

The talent in this thread seems to know no bounds. good work again folks!

Here's my latest. Enjoi.

======================================
The End Of The Line Of Resistance
======================================
Music By: Agony Of Fate
Lyrics By: C. Moore
======================================

Verse 1

Longing for closure
Reason in spite of circumstance
A lapse of composure
Entangled in a web of resistance
They walk a blood stained path
In these times of resisitance
Through resilence and persistance
Shall we see them through

Verse 2

Testing the balance
Between religion and reality
Somewhere lies a boundry
Between truth and reality
Somewhere there's a gap
Between the facts and fiction
Somehow it takes tragedy
To make so many see
That lines so obivious to many

(Chorus x2)

At the end of the line
Reality's the great equalizer
Somewhere there's a gap
Between the facts and fiction
Still, somehow, it takes tragedy
To make so many see

At the end of the line
Reality's the great equalizer
Somewhere there's a gap
Between the facts and fiction
Still, somehow, it takes tragedy
To make so many see

Verse 3

When you reach the end of your rope
You find the power
In the ties that bind you
In your darkest hour
Ihe truth is never more real
Time and distance
Will only tell you where you are
Reality will save your life

Verse 4

The problem for so many
Nothing's ever free in life
You have to start somewhere
In the grand design of things
The truth is only the beginning
You must learn the difference
Between humility and reality
To make it through life
In this distant world so cold

(Chorus x2)

At the end of the line
Reality's the great equalizer
Somewhere there's a gap
Between the facts and fiction
Still, somehow, it takes tragedy
To make so many see

At the end of the line
Reality's the great equalizer
Somewhere there's a gap
Between the facts and fiction
Still, somehow, it takes tragedy
To make so many see

It's autumn now.
It hardly seems real.
The house is quite.
But I can still hear your voice.
My memories of you are no longer bound in corporeal form.
They are but shadows that linger for too long on the wall.
Let me pin you the bulletin board in my heart.
Old photos and broken toys alike.
Remnants of our childhood.
Those happy years under the warm summer sun.
Seem so long ago.
In another lifetime.
I wasn't there when they pinned the crossed rifles on your brand new uniform.
The tears of pride falling down our parents faces.
I miss you.
Now your off to hell.
The arid heat and choking dust.
The sounds of war.
Marching off to someone else's created nightmare.
Like other soldier boys.
You are not alone.
A thousand kids have filled in the long line.
Lines stretching back into untold time.
Family's ripped apart when death visited them often.
No longer were their homes filled with laughter.
Now they are filled with anguished cries.
Men in blue uniforms.
Finely dressed as if on parade.
Carry you wood embound.
Taps plays and the drums roll on their slow beat.
Folded flags presented solemnly.
Symbols of your sacrifice.
But it's hard to believe your gone.
I can still hear you call my name from the dusty memories in the attic of my mind.
The years have worn me down like great waves break upon the rocks.
Little by little more of me is gone.
The photos in my heart.
Have faded with time.
But the presence of you in my soul remains.
The lingering warmth of our last embrace.
Still there, engraved on my skin.
From when you shipped out to now.
You are and shall always remain my brother.
This I promise.

I have several silly wishes
Filling several pots and dishes,
and I'll share them all with you!

Shiny silver spoons
Float in gooey black lagoons
That are sitting on the moon!

And all the pretty stars
Sleep in fancy schmancy cars
As they make their way towards Mars!

~~~

I forgot the rest of it, but anyhow, that's just a silly one. I woke up one morning and it literally just popped into my brain. :/
There's even a funny tune that goes with it.
Oh, random brainstuff. :|
