HEY YOU! YES, YOU! I want YOUR opinion on some of these!
 
It was suggested that I compile all of my work into one post, rather than taking over the lit forum. Yeah, I think it's a good idea. So, here's where it'll all go. Read, make fun of, make copies and burn them, I really don't care (so long as you don't steal them). Just enjoy them!

Accused


I am accused
Locked in my prison of a mind
Naught to eat
Naught but fear of one's self
Naught to drink
Naught but guilt to wash away the fear
The sentence is small
But the feeling overcomes all
They don't know what it's like
They have a perfect record
I am alone
Alone in a field of spiked and pitfalls
Each of these made of fear and guilt
Then I am plunged into nothingness
The nothingness and blackness of fear
I have been condemned
Restricted to the boundries of my mind
Left to wallow in blackness
Restricted untill death do I part
But even then
The mind continues
Condemned untill he eternal end
Although the key is in my hand
And I know the door
Stands before me
But the lock is on the other side
And mine enemies jail me
For none of them will unlock the door
And let me stagger
Once again into the light
To once again live freely

Untitled and unfinished


The world is drowning
Swimming in lost tears
Tears of the forgotten
Tears of the broken hearted
Damn you, Valentines day!

(Noted as unfinished)

My pen
Seems rough
As it slides
Across the
Empty paper

Is it me
That shakes
So badly?
Or is it
The pen?

Would you
Even be able
To see the
Difference
Between them?

Addicted


Acrid smoke
Fills my mouth
And then my lungs
Inhale
Close your eyes
And enjoy
Warmth
Spreading through
My body
Relax, it's only
A single moment
Peace
Be at ease
You're only
Addicted

Murder on Moollight Drive


A murder of crows
Blocks out the sun
Just as a murder
Blocks out my heart
He took her from me
And left me broken
And now, I am
Required to be good
So that when it's time
I can see her once again
So far above
Away in heaven

Cyrus 07-19-2007 05:46 PM

Silent Repose


Quiet and lonely
Silent repose
Death and hatered
Sweet as a rose
Broken hearts and dreams
Painful remorse
Friends and foes
Brute force
These are the things
That such lie in a man
Yet I know that I love you
Such as nobody can

Cyrus 07-19-2007 05:47 PM

Human


Scream
Let the world know you're alive

Shout
Let them know you're here

Cry
Show them you're just human

Love
Give them something to think about

Care
Let them know you can

Splash, splash, splash
Rocks tumble down
Crushing statues of goddesses
Statues of demons
Shrines of love and hope
The halls of time
Crumble into water
Wallowing at the statues' feet
Even statues cry this day

Cyrus 07-19-2007 05:48 PM

Time


If you stand now
Where I once stood
If you see now
What I once saw
It is a lie
For time changes things
As the seasons turn
The hours pass
And the seconds tick away
Remember this
Time will always slip away

Cyrus 07-19-2007 05:48 PM

Time (2)


Time passes

Almost unnoticed

Leaving us reminders

As deep as chasms

In stone faces

Cyrus 07-19-2007 06:05 PM

The final shatterer


My heart lay upon the ground
Shattered and dusty

The tears flow over the lids
I sit there crying

Second passes to minute
Minute passes to hour

Hour upon hour I cry
Untill I drift off to sleep

When I wake up
I cry some more

I prepare for school
With a tear in my eye

I get to school
I hide my tears

I go to the bathroom
About three times

There I cry
There I hide

I troop to class
All cleaned up

There I hide my tears
From all others

Some already know
It seems word goes 'round

I pull my hood on
To block the world out

Although now plunged
Into the deep dark

It cannot darken
The pain in my heart

I know I did something
Something to cause this

It seems I always do
But this is the last time

Naught is left but powder
I'll never see it again

My heart has been broken
Much too many times

I may noy return to school
Tomorrow or the day after

In fact I may not return
Not tomorrow or there after

I give my love
To the final shatterer

May you live long and peacefully
Forever and always...

Sentry of Pain


I feel so empty
So apart and still

That I'm thinking of taking
Thistiny pill

It will end all feelings
All heartbreak and pain

I will ride a white horse
Across a great plain

To be hurt no more
And not to feel

Though the cost of this
Makes it a gruesome deal

But it it would end all pain
And hurt of heart

Though I may be plunged
Into eternal dark

Goodbye, my sweet
I give you my love

I will be forever here
Or flying far above...

When darkness comes
My fear fades away
So long as you are near
When light breaks the day
I arise in your arms
A perfect beginning to a perfect day
But I awake with a start
Alone in bed I lay

Cyrus 07-19-2007 06:23 PM

Neutral


I sit here
Torn and neutral

Torn between two friends
Breaking over this stupid brawl

One friend is better than the other
Although she is wring

The other holds my heart
Steady and strong

The choices I must make
Will change their lives

After all, I may be
Disappointing my future wife

So I leave this arguement
Neutral at will

I hope that they will tread ways
That have long been still

Friends they unite
Once again

They thank me for showing the way
Both as koda, and as friend

Poems Unwritten


The poems pour out
Gliding across the paper
A small amount hath been written
Compared to what shall come
Poems unwritten
Shall spring forth
Sorrow, heartbreak, glee and others
They shalt be about
In the end
I will turn back
I will see what my life once was
See if it has changed
But here upon my current poem
I sense that it hasn't
All are demented
Heartbroken and painful
But in the future
I see happy ones
Hopefully I see the truth
I will write happy poems
Upon my cresting age
That is...
If I live that long.

Cyrus 07-19-2007 06:31 PM

Forever Yours


Even though I smile on the outside
Inside my heart I cry, please don't leave
I want us to stay together forever
Like the sun and the moon
My heart is rushing and broken
Like a wild river
My heart, my feelings, are like moving clouds
Always changing, with no place to rest
My beloved, is there any day, or any way
That we will meet again?
Will our seperation be for days?
Or will it be for months?
Please, let us meet before we die
Wherever you go
I hope you live a happy life
Free of sorrow
No matter what happens
I will miss you forever

The Mask I Wear


The glue
That holds this
Smile on my face
Is becoming stiff
I have to
Pour glitter in my eyes
When I am
Supposed to be happy
The glitter doesn't
Come out too easily
So I have to cry tears
To clear it away
I have wrinkles in th eplastic
Around my eyes
From this permanent smile
The plastic itches
It covers my face
I want to get rid of this mask
But the mask I wear
Was made t last
Because once you start to masquerade
You have to continue forever
Just hope your mask
Doesn't fall off when
They lower you
Into the grave

Cyrus 07-19-2007 06:41 PM

Not the wise man's star


I had disappeared
Before you could tell me again
To be home by dark.
And then darkness enveloped me
As I stumbled homeward.
Monsters smouldered in the bushed
And fir trees whispered chants.
I never told you of the monsters.
But thank you for the porch light.

Cyrus 07-19-2007 06:46 PM

Don't wait for me


Travel on ---
a smile awaits for you
love songs and gravestones
await you, taunting, beckoning

you chase butterflies
crushed senseless, flowers lie trampled
See what is real
The sweetest scent issues
From split and broken petals

Cupid shoots arrows with
bad aim, leaving wounded birds
fluttering limply, unable
to reach the tempting, scattered crumbs
heartbeats won't last forever

Travel on ---
don't let me fail my smiles

Cyrus 07-19-2007 06:54 PM

Falling Rocks of Defiance


Despair fills the room
eddying around crumbling boulders of hope
hopelessness reeks, the room
stinks of its awful presence
Clear waters
suddenly polluted. All happiness dies. The only
smiles left are those of stone
the smirks of cold
rigid statues. No warmth
no independence. The sculptor's
hands moulded their destiny
the destiny
of waiting in silence
as they are worn away
and staring stone eyes
unable to blink
hopelessness cascades
around their unhearing ears
eroding away their defiant stance.

Cyrus 07-19-2007 07:16 PM

Silent voice of total defiance


Amid cries of pain
And screams of agony
There is a voice
A solitary voice sounds
Though the voice
Doesn't speak
It is louder than
Any others
It is a sturdy voice
A voice of defiance
Unburdened by pain
Unblinded by fire
Does this voice
Seem quiet now?
Among cries of pain?
And screams of agony?

I didn't think so...

Cyrus 12-20-2007 10:29 AM

Deployment comes readily.
Tanks roar past, soldiers
Rub their hands, trying
To fight off the bitter cold.
Life goes on, eventually.
Boots become unfrozen, hands
Warm in the desert sun.
The sun scorches the
Already tattered uniforms.
Life goes on, eventually.
Orders come, we're going home.
Hearts lighten, soften.
More orders, we're extended
Moods darken, tears fall.
Life goes on, eventually.
