POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I'm 18 and in college now. I've lost the ability to write poetry like I used to.

I'm not the
Only one
Who has lost
When I won
I can't try
To go run
When I can't
See the sun
I've fallen
Into pits
Like Hell lost
And frozen
I'm waking
Up from the
Slumber that
Broke me a-
Part into
Millions of
Pieces and
I can't run
Only one
Who has lost
When I won
I can't try
To go run
When I can't
See the sun
I've fallen
Into pits
Like Hell lost
And frozen
I'm waking
Up from the
Slumber that
Broke me a-
Part into
Millions of
Pieces and
I can't run

A Void Where my Dreams Escape to
Ever have those days,
Where everything is siphoned away?
Ideas, thoughts, ambitions,
Even passions wither and fade.
Blow a wish on a Dandelion,
Only to have the seeds return;
Shattering all hope of being pulled out,
Of the hole you're left in to burn.
My thoughts are pushed away,
Drained into a void.
There isn't a thing I can do,
To fight off this annoyance.
My Green Lantern ring is dead,
All will power lost from my head.
I need to find a way,
To defeat the emptiness.
No, I'm not insane,
At least not...

The essence of mistakes
Bleeding
A castle burning
Forgotten hearts
Gut Churning
Hard decisions
Cold desserts
Strong fighters
Only hurt
The wrong
Only right
Left alone
To fight
A castle burning
Forgotten hearts
Gut Churning
Hard decisions
Cold desserts
Strong fighters
Only hurt
The wrong
Only right
Left alone
To fight

Change
Change is a swarm of tornadoes
Constantly moving and and absorbing
It will suck us all up
While being disorienting
You can run
Good luck trying to hide
With speeds swifter than sound
It will devour your hide
You can not want it all you wish
It will still come and sweep you away
There are the brief periods of rest
But nothing can forever stay the same
Constantly moving and and absorbing
It will suck us all up
While being disorienting
You can run
Good luck trying to hide
With speeds swifter than sound
It will devour your hide
You can not want it all you wish
It will still come and sweep you away
There are the brief periods of rest
But nothing can forever stay the same

The world today.
The world is black
For a man who sees white
It puts a dull perspective on things
When every good thing is taken from your life
The more I learn
Hatred grows
This damn world
Will be devoured by the crows
Things today
Are as bad as ever
But only if you can look
Past the shit you are told
For a man who sees white
It puts a dull perspective on things
When every good thing is taken from your life
The more I learn
Hatred grows
This damn world
Will be devoured by the crows
Things today
Are as bad as ever
But only if you can look
Past the shit you are told

I'm crystal clear
Is my skin glass?
I can't tell
Everyone can see through me
Right through my shell
My eyes don't have X-ray vision
Even the specs never work
People know me in and out
Like their favorite shirt
I don't see anything
I'm a rotten tomato
Some people see good
But then, do they really know
My skin is glass
My bones are crystal
My heart is the billboard
That shows all
I can't tell
Everyone can see through me
Right through my shell
My eyes don't have X-ray vision
Even the specs never work
People know me in and out
Like their favorite shirt
I don't see anything
I'm a rotten tomato
Some people see good
But then, do they really know
My skin is glass
My bones are crystal
My heart is the billboard
That shows all

Left
Right
Which way to life?
Why do I fight?
Just go
Don't stay
Everything goes away
Things are never that way
Choose
Pick
This is it
Don't get caught up in shit
Go now
Pick a path
Which one, if I may ask?
Are you up to the task?

The new Lullaby Idea (Help)
When the day is dark,
And all hope is gone.
The Sun with rise;
Bringing a new dawn.
The world is safe.
The terrors are quelled.
The light will protect
All of the world.
When the light falls;
The pitch black will reign.
Light is still alive;
For those who came.
We call out the light
To bring hope renewed.
Darkness will rise;
Then it will lose. x3
I like this one the best, what do you guys think?
And all hope is gone.
The Sun with rise;
Bringing a new dawn.
The world is safe.
The terrors are quelled.
The light will protect
All of the world.
When the light falls;
The pitch black will reign.
Light is still alive;
For those who came.
We call out the light
To bring hope renewed.
Darkness will rise;
Then it will lose. x3
I like this one the best, what do you guys think?

Lullaby(Need help and Feedback)
1:
Close your eyes
Drift away
From this world
Of pain
Hold on
To those beautiful dreams
Someday you will
Become many great things
The wind on your back
As the world changes around you
Holding on to your strength
You will make it through
x3
2:
The wind is your ship
To sail you to the starry seas
The cotton candy clouds
The world of dreams x2
The world holds its breath
As you leave to dreamland
The world will wait
It always understands
The good...

The Broken Human
I'm broken
Clockwork that doesn't move
I'm malfunctioning
The unused
So lost
Alone
Spiders make homes
My head
Alone
Not right
Disabled
I'm a broke human being
And I can't go back to the store
Clockwork that doesn't move
I'm malfunctioning
The unused
So lost
Alone
Spiders make homes
My head
Alone
Not right
Disabled
I'm a broke human being
And I can't go back to the store

The Third Circle
A fog surrounding
A dark blindness of white
It's so cold
I'm all alone
A beast roars
The same roars twice again
From different snouts this beast screams
There's not a bone big enough for him
Hell
Literally
Glutton filled
The Third Circle
A dark blindness of white
It's so cold
I'm all alone
A beast roars
The same roars twice again
From different snouts this beast screams
There's not a bone big enough for him
Hell
Literally
Glutton filled
The Third Circle
