softenedthe sky whispers,
ribbons of crystalline quiet,
same shade as the angel dust
you shivered every time we were
alone.

in the darkness, we were
sorry birds searching for
open dawns. you, the
swan, me, the
raven,
black as night and
just as hopeful.

and there were poems
written in your skin, universes
blooming in your hands; your eyes
were a December sunrise saving me
from any sleep.

I’ve decided that
people are a composition of
all their greatest memories—and you,
you were always the most
beautiful piece of
me.

Two SoulsCould I touch a silent thought?
Could I know the colour of a word?
Could I hear the universe full of stars?
Could I hold the sea in my arms?
Could I stroke your voice?
Could I live in your heart?

A song never sung
A paper never drawn
A game never won
A man never loved

A flower that moves
A bird on my hair
A tree always blue
Spring
one love
two souls
my world
and you.

AirI want to lose myself
in an illogical need
for love.

I want to remember
to forget
how to breathe.

What is Air
if not you?

Pull Me ClosePull me close
Hold me tight
Tell me silently
That it’ll be alright

‘Cause when you’re near
I feel my heart beating,
When I see you
I feel alive,
When you hold me
I know it’s OK,
And I revel in feeling
The sound of you breathing
With your heart right next
To mine.

The Mosaic and The Wanderer.Yes this whole has been beaten down, broken now in decrepitude.
Scattered, thrown here or there by wanders kicking loose pebbles.
A stranger strolls and sees a stone to keep for his own collection.
He didn't hear the rubble cry as another part of them is stolen.

That was the day the sky turn gray with a storm of unknown magnitude.
Flooding rain washed what pieces remained into a shallow puddle.
In sediment they settled, put back together by this muddy concoction.
As the day exsiccates a mosaic is made and a soul has been awakened.
A woman rises from the sand to search for a man, and the part of her he's taken.

He loves to stroll and walk alone, his thought always so bestrewed.
Wander, meander where time doesn't matter. He's tired of a constant dribble.
Remembering the trinket he reaches in his pocket, and is startled with a pulsing motion.
Pulling out hi

Lesbian first kiss~laying together, on the bed.
Not touching, I go closer in
Snuggling into you a bit
I play with your cheek,
you play with my hair

I go closer and snuggle..
This time my head
is gently on your shoulder
You snuggle back into my neck
Looking at your face, then your eyes
Your eyes are looking at my lips
I gently grab your chin and lift

I can see your face in perfect view,
you get scared and look down..
I reassure you with a hug.
Look back into your eyes
grab your chin and kiss..

I can feel our lips tremble,
frightened; wanting more
Slowly but gently kissing
explosions of emotions
Beams of sweat on palms
We part away for a second

We kiss again with more confidence
touching each others bodies
stroking slowly, at each others curve

I LoveDear Lover,

I love what we have,
And not what we need,
Or should be:

Strong,

Whole,

Or perfect.

I love the way we function,
When we're nearly dead,
The way you:

Hit me,

Scream,

Or punch.

I love the way my heart thuds,
When I relinquish the sweet air
In exchange for:

Your breath,

Your toxic fumes,

And I choke.

I love it,
I love it,
I love you.

Sincerely, the Heartbroken

Condemned AloneI always fail in love;
No matter the man I'm with,
He will leave eventually.

My heart rarely smiles
Ripped apart like a curtain
Of memories that
Fades with morning light.

And if I put my trust in you,
Will I regret it, only time will know.

Inside, I seethe
In rage, crying.
Why am I built
To spend a
Lonely eternity?

I'm not sure what to believe;
All these years exposed to lies,
I am filled with bitterness.

I am their puppet;
Strings attached,
They reduce me to worthlessness
Incapable to thrive.

Too scared to leap beyond the moon
Where lovers reside in harmony.

Inside, I seethe
In rage, crying.
Why am I built
To spend a
Lonely eternity?

~Love~Love is like power
its strong but can only last so long...

Many people believe there is a red string connected with your soul mate
But strings can snap eventually...

Golden hearts connected together.
Then to rust and break...

love can make you happy and positive
but also sad and negative
very regretful too...

But pay close attention, you'll only get this once.
Pick your partner carefully.
They may just pick your forever..

Desirable SweetnessSkin is so soft so sweet, for it melts in my mouth like chocolate, it makes me wonder if you have ever

Been in love before, for I am eager to know if anyone else has been able to taste your desirable churned

Sweetness, for it makes me quite jealous for someone else has touched you first, seeing your hidden

Away treasures when hearts flourish and beat as one, as the lights dim to see such gloomed pleased

Eyes in an embowered place, in which empowers the sweet aroma of the occasion, such sweetness

Haunts my very soul, and has relished in the faery power of my unreflecting love……

Snapshots of usthe grass doesn’t grow here;
it’s all picket fences and five millimetre lawns
but ours is a jungle, guarded by thorns
as we entwine, anchoring each other
sunshine bathed and blurry
with Narnia tucked behind the beehive

still we’d rather be nomadic than settle
(we are blinkered but bolting)
and smoke and mirrors have more substance than
this hushed hunting for the other shoe
and the lipstick stains on your collar

it feels a little incestuous
but we chose the second circle
and dark matter is a time-bomb, ticking
so I sink into you again (and again)
rooting for salvation beneath your husk
and hoping we’ll find right

rippleshow many ripples you can cause
in the ocean of someone's heart,
each person has a tidal system they must abide and sometimes,
(even though you know better than to fight the waves)
you can't help but fool yourself into thinking
you can dive a little deeper.
(even though you're running out of air already)

and i am already becoming an expert in
clasping my hands together just right
so that it feels like someone else's fingers
interlaced with mine,

i know how to drape one leg over the other
to make it seem as though it's your ankle touching my foot
i press my back to the pillow beside me,
pretend its more than
just my body warmth heati

That Thing Called LoveA moment
A kiss
This feeling
A wish

A gesture
A touch
These feelings
Too much

Descriptions
Depictions
No words
Can be written

This love
A thought
This knowing
Is enough

Star-kissed SpineShe has this air about her
that I don't quite understand.
It's as if her spine is the night sky,
caressing the heavenly bodies
of the planets on her skin.
Ivory skin,
like that of a porcelain doll.
She is fishnet and lace,
black and white,
and all the in-betweens.
I'll take her star-kissed spine
and she can have my battered rib cage,
my sore, slow heart
if only she'll take them.

A girl walked into town.A girl walked into town.
Silent and new, she had no place.
No familiar faces shone
upon her silent shores of
nervous indifference.
Friends, they told her.
You've got to get some friends.
As if, she scoffed, it was that easy.
No, this newness was good but it was
Lonely.
And each new branch
she tried to grow, to reach out,
hurt with the growing pains of
childhood.
Uncomfortable.
Burning.
An introvert doormat in a callous world.
But how could it be so enticing?
So welcoming?
Late August, a friend blew in
from the dust.
Inviting. She wasn't too keen on
trying to grow new branches again.
But this one held the promise of fruit.
Sweet and cool to

Left For DeadA cigarette in hand?
No, than why won't these hands stop shaking?
How comes it's getting harder to stand?
Please believe me when I say I'm not faking.

The lights they are becoming dimmer.
I can't see, oh please can't anyone hear me?
This light that once shined bright is becoming slimmer.
No, please don't flee!

I only hear silence now.
There is no longer that loving bliss.
I no longer hear what was once said to me, that once solemn vow,
"I won't leave you, this I promise you. I Love You." that was than sealed with a kiss.

I fall to my knees.
I curse into the deep dark night.
As I look down into the deep sea,
A land of hopes and

I Don't Know What To DoI don't know what to do
About this broken heart.
About how to let go.
When this is only the start.

I don't know what to do
With each passing day.
My mind wants to go
But my heart wants to stay.

I don't know what to do
When my hands won't stop shaking.
Oh god please just tell me it isn't so
And please just don't let anyone see that I'm faking.

I don't know what to do
When everything seems so wrong
But I guess that is nothing new.
There is no use in trying to stay strong

I don't know what to do
I tried with all of my might
But nothing could reach you
So I'm giving up the fight.

I just don't know what to do about you.

Never Have YouNever Have You

I wish you were here by my side.
To help me, to hold me, and to love me
But I know that could never be.
I could never have you.

I've wanted you for so long.
So long that I can't remember when I didn't look forward to seeing your face.
I couldn't wait to see you again.
I would stare at you silently praying you would look my way
But I know I could never have you.

I don't know what is wrong with me,
Thinking you were mine when so many others wanted you as well.
My heart is breaking.
Tears falling,
Falling,
Dropping.
I know now that I could never have you.

I have to let you go.
I have to realize that you don't fee

In My HeadAs i sit here thinkin.
My eyes begin to fill.
Fill with the pain.
With the memories.
OF how it was.
What it was.
I sit here thinkin.
How could it be?
Only but a year ago?
So much has changed.
Nothing is the same.
Or is it that i've changed?
I feel alone.
To alone.

I feel like im burnin up inside.
I slowly raise my hand to my shoulder.
And feel the cold chill run down my spine.
How can this be?
That i feel this way?
How can i feel so cold & yet so hot at the same time?
I begin to tremble.
As a tear slowly escapes & rolls down my cheek.
How much more of this can i stand?
How much longer can i hold on?
I've seen so much.

A title is yet to comeSitting here lying on the blanket
The blanket where we use to lay
My mind drifts off
To a better time and day.
I think of the night that feels so long ago
You wrapped me in your arms so tight
And swore you'd never let go
But life won't let you play its game.
It has its own rules and plans in mind.
I stare up at the stars and still can feel the pain.
They came on a night much like this.
They came and took him and the rest that I loved.
Life took them away from me so brutally
But little did they know that I plan to fight back and get my revenge.

Whole New WorldThose blue eyes of such great power
Take over my body every time.
They seem to say everything will be alright.
Those blue eyes of such great power
Always pull me away from the world of hate.
They take me in like a homeless child.

When i look in those eyes
They seem to read my mind.
Those blue eyes hear my every thought.
They know my secret that will never be told.
Those blue eyes of such great power.
They seem to be keeping me save from all that i have ever known.
I only see the bad in the world for that is what my life is all about
But when i look in those eyes of blue
They show me what life is all about.

Love Test

Literature / Poetry / Romantic / General / Free Verse

Stop and take a moment.
Rethink about what you’re doing
Your mouth is moving
But who do you think you’re fooling?

If it’s a love, unlike all
The times before than surely, lass
This will be the one love test
That will be easy to pass.

You say you’re in love
And maybe it’s true
Just listen to me,
I’m not trying to be cruel.

Love is what you feel when
You can’t feel anything at all
And sometimes you have to be
The first one to fall.

Love is what it is like
To put your heart on the line
To risk it all and trust
That everything will end up fine.

Love is how your heart races
But stands still at the same time.
To love with all your heart
Is surely no crime

When I look in your eyes
There is no love I can find.
Oh, can’t you see
That love just can’t be blind?

Think of these facts
And in the end its your call
But can you honestly tell me
You’re even in love at all?

Ok so I wrote this about a month ago but for some reason never posted it? I just touched up the last 4 line stanza but yeah so anyway this is basically about people & how easily they claim they are in love anymore. It is more so pointed at one friend inparticular along with another one but either way...

people need to realize that not every person they are with or meet can they say they're instantly in love with nor should they claim they are to everyone around them. It can really hurt a person in the long run, especially the one who is being told by someone else that they love them.

This goes out to all those people who need to take a step back and ask themselves "Is this really love or just me being in love with the thought of love?"

~attackpanther Apr 23, 2007
