[SIZE=1]Wow. Those are all amazing. I'm afraid to post my poems and have them compared to everyone else's...(Chris, that poem was amazing! Why didn't you ever share it before? :p )
But...one long one and one short one. *takes a deep breath*
(Neither one have a title, either...)
Did you try
To take the path
That opened easily?
Lost inside
Yourself, you lose
More than you can see
A million times
I've tried to warn
Your feet to watch themselves
But you continued
Aimlessly, not glancing
Back, I could tell
You guessed the road
Was easy dirt,
A rockless, simple tread
While you were looking
Deep inside
I looked far ahead
And saw the road
Curve up and back
With barriers and sand
The shadows formed
From empty friends
Who stole from your dead hands
They keep on reaching
For you now
As you blind yourself
I give in
And push them out
I'm sick of worthless help
They follow you
And your sight
To look inside, I know
But they see air
And so do I
Your heart echos hollow
You were looking
Through yourself
But just a bit too far
You caught a glimpse
Of someone's happiness
On that far, far away star
Don't compare
Me to you
Or yourself to it
You've lost my heart
And misplaced your soul
Amid all this vanity sh*t.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Lie
Awake amid the dirt
You have dug yourself
Walked upon
By nameless faces
Lost inside themselves
Pulling through
The crowds, to reach
A darker path than this
They stumble on
Your face, your hands,
Spikes sticking to their feet
One spike stays
Point trapped within
Your heart, inside your chest
That face recieves
A name just then
Lie
Await your death.
Um...explaination? Well, for anyone who made it through the whole first one...(soo long...gomen. ^_^;;; ) I wrote that when I was having problems with certain people...Chris, Cammy, you guys would know who...¬.¬ Lotsa stuff came crashing down then...and that poem just kinda came out. *_*
The second one...my attempt at a moral in a poem. I dunno what else, since I can't remember what I was thinking when I wrote it...:drunk:[/SIZE]
