Yielding to Darkness

Priyanka Iyer

14 Sep, 2017 09:23 AM
I unraveled my dusty luggage of words today,
Humming a melody to blow pain away,
Cautiously, not letting my words become trite,
To dispel the darkness, I let in the light!

 

Preventing my thoughts from straying into paths malign,
All the while pursuing some kind of a positive sign,
With light, out went darkness and pain followed suit,
Somewhere perhaps, my efforts had borne fruit.

From Behind

Ink, paper, and a pen

28 Dec, 2016 10:35 PM
As i am singing iloveyou goodbye
They are saying their vows and lullabies
They're so happy as i standby
At the corner hiding, so no one can see me cry. 

Let me love you from behind
Let me remember the love i cant rewind
With my love for you i'm willing to be blind
Although im tearing apart this heart so kind.

There are plenty of ways to die
But baby loving you kills me and keeps me alive

I'm Sorry

Kimberly

10 May, 2016 04:33 PM
I'm sorry for the things I've done.
I'm sorry I can't be your number one.

I'm sorry I always put you to the test.
I'm sorry I can't be the best.

I'm sorry I keep myself in a shell.
I'm sorry I put you through hell.

I'm sorry that sorry isn't enough.
I'm sorry for all the dumb stuff.

End of the World

redlover

People say the worst part is waiting
Waiting helplessly
Knowing you can do nothing
People are wrong

The worst part is when you do find out
When you hear but don't believe
When you can't believe
When you loose hope

The worst part is feeling like your heart stopped
Like you died too

the empty journey

exbuffy

21 Nov, 2014 08:21 PM
I sit here feeling the cold surrounding me 
Surrounding my body as I pour dry
Abandoned by all yet all say they would always be there
I text you
I call you
Anything for your attention

You’ve left me along to fight through the dark
To shed the light
But truth be told you were my only light...
Now I am alone and cold
Afraid of what I will see once there is light upon me

Tired

Derek

Is it so hard to decipher the poorly encrypted code placed on my face?
"I'm tired" "I'm just tired" "I'm fine, I'm just fucking tired"

Is this so believable that you're left with nothing to inquire? 
Or is there something less forming, some lack of desire? 
The thoughts in my head are swarming, that no one is caring.

I always get left behind, there's just me being lonely and alone.
"It's OK, I'm really fine. It's just hard to sleep when I'm at home."
Just a second glance, it's all that I ask.

I'm at the brink of tears, I need some help before my skin tears.

Scarlet Flower

Lily Vasilyeva

01 Jun, 2013 12:48 PM
A scarlet flower on her wrist,
Her vision starts to cloud with mist,
She's slipping down the cold, wet floor,
No strength to hold her up no more;

She smiles even through the pain,
The shower turned on, dripping like rain,
Nothing left to keep her sane,
Her blood spreading as a scarlet stain;

She dimly hears her favorite song,
The desire to live not anymore so strong,

i need to know whats on her mind
still i failed to say..
i need to know what makes her smile
what makes her want to stay!
 

and all her dreams i need to see
so i can insert something about me..

i need to know her favorite star
cause I'd wish upon it with all my heart
wishing someday i could be there

Sighs Of The Wanderer

Silent Traveler

04 Apr, 2011 07:58 PM
Show me the way where the sun never burns
Show me the way where the sky is the earth
Show me the place where the stars shine forever
Show me the time when my heart turns to gold...

Show me the valley where rainbows live and play 
Show me the mountains where angels used to pray 
Show me the altar of my life's blissful moments 
Show me the arms of my first smile...

Show me the heart where hope never withers
Show me the soul where prayers are the rain
