Hmm...well, yeah...here's a bit of my poetry that I write...often :)

Enjoy!!

Eternity

Eternity…
Eternity seems so far away,
Yet so close I could almost taste it.
It seems to remain unbreakable,
Yet it shatters when I touch it.
I was promised love for eternity,
Yet eternity will never come.
Eternity…
Eternity is the sunshine that never shines,
In the pewter sky with the falling diamonds of rain.
Eternity…
Eternity is something I hold in my heart,
Along with the love I was shown.
A love that dissolved into the memories of yesterday.
Something that may never prevail again.
Eternity…
Eternity is the dove shot down in the sun.
The downtrodden dirt, unknown to the souls of mortal men.
Eternity…
Eternity is the dream that I dream,
And I reach out to touch,
Yet I can never reach.
Eternity…
Eternity is my soul, longing to be free.
Eternity is him.
Eternity is me.


Forgotten

Through the mirror,
Through the glass,
My reflection is no more.
Even my reflection has abandoned me.
Drifting somewhere between worlds,
Not quite Heaven,
Yet not quite in Hell.
My judgement on fire,
My senses burned,
My eyes are too blind to even see my soul.
Reaching out, to touch my dreams,
And to taste their bittersweet essences.
Never gaining more than loss,
Never finding more than has gone.
Forever pleading for a reason to exist,
For a reason not to be forgotten,
And to remain safely in their minds.
Somewhere between meaning and pointlessness…
Somewhere between hope and despair…
Not quite alive,
Yet not dead just yet.
My heart pounding fast,
My soul ripping itself into pieces,
My hands wanting to grasp their way to solace.
Wanting to be cradled in safety,
And to feel warmth once again.
Never living a day longer,
Never dying a moment too soon,
Lingering where I should retreat.
And not haunt them with an undying presence.
Not to pain them with my memory.
I am gone now.
I am forgotten…


Pain and Freedom

A flash of silver light,
And a bloodstained knife thrown to the floor.
My heart shattered,
My chest slashed,
Red pouring from my lips.
I've been skirting this for too long.
the once blue now crimson,
I wanted this.
I needed this.
Ghostly white,
Becoming paler and plaer,
There is nothing I want you to do.
Every last breath,
A step closer.
No more pain.
Though so much is left behind for me,
I am waiting for freedom.
So as my eyes close one last time,
''I love you...''
No more.
and I wait,
As you walk in.
And I listen,
To your agonised scream.
I am gone.
Cry, if you must,
But I am gone...


Living for a Moment

were we ever worlds apart?
Lonely, longing,
Hunting for something,
But what?
Did we ever clse our eyes,
To the chances we could take?
Waiting, wanting,
Hungering for a reason.
Chasing the storm we were trying to find,
But where, the hearts of each other?
Were they ever closed?
Like curtains, closed to one another.
Were they?
We could never see the answer,
Though it was embellised,
Solid as stone,
Satined there on our lips,
And yet, we never saw it.
It was etched, like ink on paper,
Etched into the one place,
The one place we could find the answer.
Etched into our beings.
Etched into our souls...


You'll Be There

Made to wait, unhelpful, yet obedient.
Like a small child, unable to do anything.
Looking around, not wanting to know,
Cold, though I am warm…
Fearful, though stabbing at bravery…
My heart rung of any joy,
Replaced by a new wave of immeasurable sadness.
A wave of incurable fear.
Following the only light I know to hope,
And hoping wildly.
So much, that I could have left all my senses,
And hoped beyond compare…all for you…
Unable to face the world, frozen with shock,
And that was the first time…
I believed you could do it…
I believed you could make it…
And the pain came and left my heart, each time I thought you would live…
Once more, made to stay, like a child.
Unable to see you one last time…
And when I awoke…I sensed it…I felt it…
You are sleeping whilst I wake,
You are sleeping whilst I do,
The realisation has never passed.
There is nothing I can do…
You are gone, and I have no way…
No way of reviving you, or seeing you again.
Tears like the rain, falling…
Heart slashed with a sword, wounded…
My eyes blinded with pain,
Unable to see past the sunlight,
Only able to memorize your face,
And again, blinded by my fears.
And as I sit here, I know,
You will always be there for me…
Unseen, unheard, but I know…
I can sense you…
You will bring light to my troubles,
Comfort my fears,
Hope to my despair,
You’ll be there…

Wow, thank you ^^ here's amother, which I wrote...yesterday I think...

I never got what I was looking for

From the moment I saw you,
I knew you.
I longed for you.
Feeling unwanted every time you ignored me.
Feeling cheated every time you kissed someone but me.
Hoping that someday you might kiss me.
The day never came.
I wanted you so badly,
I longed for your love so much,
But I never got what I was looking for.

Then she came into your life,
She took you.
I longed for you.
Feeling unwanted every time you held her.
Feeling cheated every time you kissed her, because she wasn’t me.
Hoping that someday you might kiss me.
But you stayed with her.
I wanted you so badly,
Envy and jealousy exploded,
But I never got what I was looking for.

I wanted to do something crazy,
I needed you.
I longed for you.
Feeling the want to go out of my mind.
Feeling as if I needed to take you from her, to ease the pain.
Hoping that someday she might leave.
But she didn’t leave.
I desired you so badly,
So I did what came to mind,
But I never got what I was looking for.

All those things I said to you,
I hated her.
I had to have you.
Feeling nothing as I spilled the lies.
Feeling content as you walked away from her, into my own arms.
Hoping that the day you loved me was today.
But you didn’t love me.
I had hurt you,
Though I thought you would thank me,
But I never got what I was looking for.

I had been too blinded to see,
You couldn’t love.
I’d taken your love.
Feeling unwanted as you ignored everyone who tried,
Feeling cheated that I had lied, and destroyed the happiness you had had.
Hoping that you would return.
But you never came back.
I had stolen your love,
Though not to my own heart.
You had no heart, and instead, I had two.
I wanted your love, but destroyed you instead.
But I never got what I was looking for.

[size=1]Nicely done, I can feel every feeling that you are trying to convey. I loved your images, they are so new in a way. The oxymoron used in your first poem "Eternity is the sunshine that never shines," that is just wonderful you have captured eternity withing those words. You use anaphora very skillfully, you put it in the right places especially in "I Never Got what I was Looking For" Wonderfully done the images are right on with the theme of you poems, which is mostly pain, the faith and hope that never seems to come. The quite after the storm that is never reached. The pain of loving some one so bad that you end up hurting them. Every one of those feelings I could feel. We hope to live, and hope keeps us alive, but what we hope for never comes. [/size]
