Of Puppets and Their Dreamers	[14 Mar 2013\|08:24pm]
I kiss the night,Let this sickness take its holdThere are a thousand angels,And nine-hundred and ninety-nine are made of stoneI am the princess of the darkest lightQueen of dying spidersI kiss this glassAnd abort the fetus of the night,My sorrow giggles,Manically depressedIn in the silence of the tomb,My weary eyes find restLord, I hateGod, I loathe,But if my heart is royalThen pain keeps it clothedAnd they will be so rich,And bloody red and gold and grey,The silence cries"Another chance! Another chance!"While I beg for one more day,With shimmering golden threadThe color of poppies in the sunset And of Angel Dust,You used the night you diedI find myself cold, alone, and somehow bought,I am the princess of the fallen world,I am the receiver of Shattered diamonds and so many flawed pearlsOh, wise woman of the night,Goddess of milky things and dim night lightsTake me home,Take me away,For, while my soul fights on,My body dies today

Paper and Chalk	[07 Mar 2012\|11:58am]
Purest white, Clouds gone forever grayThin white linesMark the edges of my sanity Ripped and torn,Loved to death,I propose an ideaAnd let it take flightWritten on torn sheets of paperFrom my mindI believe in those wordsThe ones I wrote so long ago With paperAnd chalkI let them blossom,I let them thriveWatered, loved and fed themI watched them grow oldAnd greyAnd finally dieScraps fluttering about, Like ashes in the windThey were the idle musingsOf a silly, little girlThe symbolic birthOf her freedom of thoughtAnd the death of the sheepAnd watching the flames eatThe chalk and the paperI feel hopelessSurely there are things I cannot controlBut by committing those simple words to memoryI can bask forever in the simple elegance left behindSilvery dust,And tinted college-ruled I feel for the wordsThat died on that dayAnd letting myself be calmedI picture themAnd it hurts no more

Stitched: A Cutters Diary	[01 Mar 2012\|07:43pm]
Let me be free from your crimson embraceYour scarlet lips, caressing my skinThe feel of your claritySoaked in blood and bandagesI want no more of your voice screaming in my earsYour scent seducing meThe feel of old wounds on my cold skinThe feel of scars forming to announce my pain loudly to a world not listening to my pleasI want you no more, for looking at you makes me illI don’t need you! But how can I explain that I do?The sudden burst of skin breaking, cut through with the dullest blade, the shattering of the world and the rush of cool air on a dull, hot dayThe shaking hands bandaging up wounds that are beautiful, almost to beautiful to bearThe scars that show what I amWhen my words refuse to explainI’m tempted by youI hate you,But I hate me moreAh, bladeLull me into sound sleep once moreAnd by mornings light, I shall need you no more

WINDOWS	[31 Jul 2005\|10:55am]
WINDOWS(T. Beechey)From my window,I can see you lost in each other's gazesIn the midst of the hazes brought on by passion's blazesFrom your window,can you see me before a shattered mirrorCause the image which appeared bore a figure that was clearerLong ago?From my window,I can see you living out your storyBasking in the glory of never needing to be sorryFrom your window,can you see me lost in a sea of doubtWondering what life's about in a world now withoutYour glow?Myself in the window no longer bears reflectionWhile the lines of your shadow point in each directionYet I can't turn aside,ever hopeful for a glanceOf the stemming of the tide of romanceFrom my window,I can see you in the arms of anotherSecure in the love for this moment you've discoveredFrom your window,can you see me with head bent and kneelingIn search of a healing from this overwhelming feelingOf shame?From my window,I can see you dancing in the moonlightSilohuetted in the twilight and everything is all rightFrom your window,can you see me as my spirit's slowly dullingWith teardrops steadily falling and each one callingOut your name?

FOREVER	[30 Jul 2005\|07:48am]
FOREVER(T. Beechey)Forever exists until memories fadeAnd the shades are drawn and even thenWhen just a solitary thought In time is caught,it begins againForever is neither here nor there,It's everywhere and nowhere at allYet,somewhere we fall in the middle And,little by little,we begin to dullTill we all become part of foreverNever changing,but seldom the sameName or circumstance doesn't divide usFor they're inside us to feed the flameThere is no beginning,there is no endOnly chance to mend what's fallen beforeAs through the door we quickly passInto the looking glass of nevermoreForever exists in a dream selectedFrom those reflected in sightless eyesAnd nothing dies for we're all as oneJust as we've begun until spirits rise

A newbie and a poem for all of you	[20 Jun 2005\|11:56pm]
[ mood \| weird ] Hi! I'm new to this community. I decided to join because though there aren't many members, it's really lovely. I can't write, I never thought I can. But sometimes, the words just come and I just have to write them on a piece of paper, chew on my pen and form rhymes and in the end, all the thoughts form one picture. I think that's what people call poetry. I'm not sure though..:Uncertainity:.It's so cold, so darkThe door's so close, so farTall and threateningThe dark wood, shutPlease open up, please don'tI need to know, I want to know notIt's opening, so slowIt's so tall, I'm so lowMy breath catches in my throatPlease open up, please don'tI need to know, I want to know notIt stopps halfwayMy heart racesWill there be unknown faces?Please open up, please don'tI need to know, I want to know notIt shuts and I crySo it's decided by nowPlease open up, please doI need to know, I really do.

[ mood \| creative ] hey my name is Becca and I'm new to this community.sometimes I space out. sometimes i cant feel. I've had too many experinces to doubt that happy endings are always near. So listen closely, I'm truly sorry, if I have forgot that maybe once in awhile, I get lost. Sometimes its too hard, to stick with the truth. sometimes i cant speak, even to you; because I get so scared, watching you not care, that all just seems so lost. I try not to forget that you'll always be there for me. Even with the worst situations, you say you'll care for me. But doubt, still circles about. And i cant, quite firgure out why its there in the first place.I also have a poetry community so come check it out

EMO(TIONAL)I ran my hands along, as I kneeledPressing my palms into the wood floor,Searching and seeking,But all I felt were slivers of your sharp wordsCutting little nicks on my skinWith tiny stabs of poisoned recollection.And the pieces of my heart were never found.

THE PIPER(T.

FOREVER INTO THE DISTANT BLUE	[21 Dec 2004\|04:34am]
FOREVER INTO THE DISTANT BLUE(T. Beechey)Amidst the boundless astral plain,amongst the myriad drops of rain,Between the moon and sun I've danced in a ceaseless quest to seek romanceBut I just had to turn to find that what I sought was right behindTo take my hand and guide me through forever into the distant blueWithin her eyes,therein lies what shade and shadow can't disguiseAll that is so pure and true,like when the dawn embarks anewSpilling forth in lustrous rays,sifting through the mist and hazeAllowing for another chance to glimpse the world at flawless glanceAnd the images which have been drawn supply the strength to carry onOver once untrodden ground as time's fabric grows unwoundHers is truly a lyrical soul - lifting me up,filling the roleOf someone whom I used to know...it seems so very long agoBut also yet,in a way,there remains a sense of yesterdayFor but a fleeting twinkling once,I relished the flavors of these wantsI savored every precious drop then,all too soon,it came to stopEver since I've longed and yearned for those moments to returnTo cast aside shrouds of gloom and breathe in airs of sweet perfumeNestled in rich bouquets of water lilies by the bayJust simple pleasures,priceless treasures ---springing forth in spacious measuresGone not to be revised...till I found the beauty in her eyesReviving faith,renewing hope,smoothing out each hill and slopeGranting chance to chances lost regardless of the cause or costA time to bask within the rays of playful,carefree summer daysAnd capture at their greatest heights passions borne on winter heightsRevealed to all,concealed to none --- the time to heal has begunAnd I never thought I would see when such a time would come to meI'm comforted so by its warming glow,more than anyone could ever knowCasting reflections below,above,and all around in hues of loveNow,as anguish goes,I've chance to dose --- at last,a moment for reposeFor I've grown weary in my quest,my wounded soul beckons requestThe mirrored portraits in her eyes reflect upon the earth and skiesAcross the glass I fanitly trace a misplaced smile upon my faceWhen I awake I've come to see these dreams of smiles have come to beFor,within my heart,we are as one in the presence of the setting sunUnderneath a velvet mystic sky as clouded mists go rolling byUpon a crystalled span of sea awash in sheer tranquilityAnd,all around,there is no sound --- not even a echoed whisper foundJust she and I within a world so unbridled and unfurledHer poetic gaze I praise in song as,with the winds,we drift alongPast and beyond the skyline view...forever into the distant blue
