X: "Fields" by unvorsum

with every color
reverberating upside down
within these eyes
i see fields
in hindsight
and when looking back
i notice you there
your picture becoming
less clear
but i want you to know
that as these colors grow
my field of view
will always show
the look on your face
when i told you how
i love you so

X: "The Topic" by Shade_of_blue

Bystanders and the general public alone dont know the truth the topic the true hand of the man
the man that converts words into subjects and matter and yet we read it everyday, can we ever say we pay attention , are we even okay...
i see death and crime and nothing glorious at times , i see happiness and saddness placed in with the fake and real , no boundaries i wonder is it all sureal..
but inoncent as it may seem a simple topic is a topic at hand, a school burns down and were all soothed with new news , bad or good its something true..
so from a familier face youll hear sometimes the topic of the day , a death of a famous man or less famous yet important women
so who do we hearld , our everyday life, we challange it to be the top of the days new, but were so less siginificant then we think until we explode and implode
but then again the man chooses the news, media controls our human curosity fuse , we are a hand within a topic and topic at hand we are the general public....

X: "Curiosity" by yazmeen

Perched upon my shoulders, they lounge
a battle between good and vice
One whispers to me, "do the right thing"
the other whispers..
"why play nice?"
I am curious to know, another side of me
I am curious to know, if i am really free
I struggle against myself
A fine example i strive to set
but then there are those moments
when life begs me to regret
Your missing out it tempts me
What do you have to lose?
So i listen to the naughty side
to hell with miss goody two-shoes

X: "The Dungeon" by epct414

How did I come in?
nothing i remember.
everything looks the same,
and i dont seem to be a member.
run to the wall,
run to the wall
barriers of weeds and thorns,
barriers against which i brawl.
the way is nowhere close,
the way may not be far,
the walls comfuse my heart,
but with hope you can brake a bar.
moments of my life,
the walls of my past.
dont waste your life braking them down,
find your way, and the walls you dont need to blast.
the results will throw them down

X: "Wingless Fallen" by Just Scars

Wingless fallen, reckless remains
strangled by invisible chains
Complacent and tired of pretending
round and round we go
Its nothing, and its everything
It mattes so much it doesn't
You ask me to care
I ask you WHY
Give me a reason
Something to believe in
Oh wait, you cant
You don't even believe
Smile right on cue
Cry, laugh, sympathize
All with out meaning

I feel the emptyness
Every word and thought
Just NOTHING
Oblivious to the point of content
Wasted on such a pretty face
Go a head, I've fallen
You ripped them off
and left me wingless

X: "Let Your Color Fill The Sky" by wolfos

on a building way up high
will i float or will i fly
i could fall so fast the wind and hair tie
become a splat because of this lie
but i will let my colour fill the sky
one being a while
one being...
not so fun

X: "Castaway" by TheMoo

I long to see a long lost day
a simple meeting of 2 castaways
a drift in a sea of sorrow
never thinking there to be a morrow
discarded and hurt of years
all dried up even of tears
a simple passing in the night
each one knowing they've fought the fight
A small knowledge to hold them over
The will not be alone when this life is over.

X: "Strangers With Candy" by Roo

Aloft, the floor, swirls brilliant light,
my entrance to hell, just for tonight.
Where i can elude my sins and capture desire
all these people possess something I admire
The bass fills my ears with a drowning beat
and the flourescent lights, my skin does heat.
I'll sway and move to the beautiful sounds,
Get lost amongst the uncertian crowds
Each with a different taste and flavour
I'll slip my tongue over to savour,
We'll grind and dance the night away
Praying only for the alcohol to stay
a couple twenties later, and i am smashed
my make-up askew and my clothes not trashed
from gropping hands, and wandering eyes
Of passionate kisses and fool proof lies
The dominate sound of the warning last Bell
This , tonight has been my Hell.
I got caught within its tempid stew,
Save for one, I ended with you.
Your Candy I Promise I will taste alone
after we slip into the cab, and head home.

X: "The Night After" by Just Scars

The memories of never seem to fade
they linger on every smell
every touch
A life time of them cling to me
Some how imprisoning me to you
But the night after our goodbye's
I can't seem to remember why
All we used to do was hate one another
now, I can't think of a reason to hate you
its a shame, I sure wish I could
But my heart sill holds you
I guess when I said forever
I meant it...
I just didn't know it would be with out you

X: "Ashes on the Water" by unvorsum

several days, it's been
sails cast, crows nest
looking out for land
the captain's lost his hand
but it doesn't make him
any less of a man
hunger, disease
heading east
when a fog rolls in
losing track of everything
a sudden canon blast
we take a hit
we lose the mast
and the belly of the ship
redused to ash
and but a memory
of that fateful day
when we met the beast

X: "Unlit Cigarette and the Day We Met" by amad3us

Unlit ciggarette clasped between pincers
Nicotine addict calling quits
Quickly drawing breaths
Sniped from

X: "Civil Ravages" by wolfos

the buildings are falling
the sky is too
better be careful
they could come after you
the people have guns
the man has rockets
the rain is burning
and they fill their pockets
the screams evolved to shreiks
the misery evolved to pain
the world devolved to ash
the man just wants to gain
i feel the burn
and i feel the sting
i cant get it off
this awful...
thing

X: "The Phonebook In My Mind" by X

The mind wants to categorize people
Into neat little sections and color tabs
It's never that simple
Try labeling someone a w%@$~
Then looking them up for s%z
It's never a slam dunk
And it isn't even alphabetized
Because most people don't have an order to their thoughts
Feelings
Nor do they even know what they want
When they open the phonebook
I want peace of mind
And I haven't found the section for it
And I've been looking
For years

X: "His Touch" by youforgot2evolve

His gentle touch wakes me from my sleep
my eyes open slowly to gaze into his deep brown eyes
a smile forms upon my lips
he leans down to kiss me gently
my eyes close again like they were never open

X: "Dark" by TheMoo

I huddle alone inside the Dark
Outside i think i heard a dog bark
things are scary and im confused
so much blood, the knife it was used
they screamed while i cried
i laughed as they died
and now i giggle huddled to think
cuz after i stabbed them their blood i did drink.

X: "The Hidden Inner Light" by X

Those she passes, those she meets
Those who see her on the street
Might find her cute or nondescript
Her silence might cause them to skip
But those of us who know her by night
Who are privy to her inner light
Need nothing more to read by
And no substance to get high
For when she efforts to manifest
I love that part of her the best

X: "Night On The Mountain" by theeviljc

the cold wind chils my soul,
i search for my heart in the midst of the clouds.
for surely beign this close to god should inspire me.
but to my dismay all i find is ice,
my thoughts recid into the dark depths of my pain.]
all that i have losst is brought to the forefront,
all that has hurt me manifest in the wisps of ice and wind before me.
i came here for a spiritual revivail....
and all i found was an empty god...
my night on the mountian...
wasted....

X: "Surprise Acrostic" by Just Scars

Slowly the season fades
Every leaf has fallen
Any trace of summer now gone
Sleet and hail abound
On frosty ground
Nothing but cold coming
Seasons remain the same

In light and dark
Never less, just the same

Taking shelter
Here in the house
Evenings spent warm

Remembering the seasons past
A many of them, meant to last
In the rain I find renewal
Nothings changed, but never the same

X: "Words To The Wind" by youforgot2evolve

Sitting among the trees alone
Whispering your name
I let the wind take it
The wind will carry you
It will carry you home

X: "Lips" by theeviljc

delicate and soft, i fall at thier touch.
holding on to me with just the hint of contact.
passion flows freely from her to me...
no words...
none are needed..
everything i need to know is there..
in her lips..

X: "If I Told Him Sooner" by Roo

if i had told him sooner,
i wouldnt be standing there
if i had told him sooner,
perhaps he would've cared
If I had possibly let him in
i would be better off
If i had told him sooner,
there might not be blood in my cough
If i had told him sooner,
he wouldnt be sleeping there
if i told him soon,
he probably would still be in that chair
Oh what a waste of time I lost,
in which i could've gotten better,
I just wanted to live my life,
to our friends, he would of said I'll let her,
Shes a woman with strength and dignity,
and could've made in with my prayers
who am i to judge her ways, i'm here to love and share
If i had told him sooner, perhaps he wouldnt be such a wreck
he probably thinks im selfish now, and that i didnt give a heck
If i had told him sooner, i wouldnt have this guilt in my heart,
my regret will be large, i presume even when we are apart.
The cancer has spread and im about to die
i wish i didnt withhold, this shattering lie

X: "Music Of My Soul" by TheMoo

I yearn to scream and shout
i need to let it out
things that drive me crazy
to ignore them makes me hazy
She really should be told
the Music of my Soul
But i know without a doubt
If she did she'd snuff it out.

X: "Heart of a Banjo" by The_Southern_Gemmy

Going Back To My Roots
I Hear A Horn That Toots
Thoughts Were The Day
The Time Were I Feel So Gay
Sitting Here With A Bango
My Heart Starts To Beat
As I Stroke The Chords
I Start To Sing
The One My Granny Played
The Name Of It Was
The Heart Of A Banjo

X: "B%y@^zw#" by X

Begone, alien butt fungus!
Unless you're here to write
Too many times have your kind rendered our room a
Toilet!
Hell awaits you, for all we care
Open your mind and join our funk
Let your inner prose nerd be heard!
Everyone else does, so can you!
