POETRY TAG AUGUST 09 EDITION (Page 9)  Zhya: Watching A Friend Die By: Cursed_Eternity Gazing out a window The sound of rain outside and cascading down the pane I think back to a time when everything was perfect Closing my eyes the memories flood my senses Of laughter and tears and heartache Tears threaten my eyes as I hear your voice I try to make fun as you want but in the end it always comes back There's been many times I've cried while talking to you But I do my best to hide it, though I think you know me too well We make jokes as we try to make the best of it But in the end I know that we will never do this again It's unfair for this to happen but such is life So as we continue like we always do I wish I could stop time so that you will stay There are no words to describe what you mean to me Or how much I will miss you All I can say is that my life has been brighter just cause you were in it Nothing will ever take the time we had together away from us But that's a small comfort to the hole that is left in my soul I open my eyes to the pouring rain And the deluge of tears that will never go away Don't leave me alone here ©2009 Cursed_Eternity Zhya: Stellar Sweeper By: itskristinab*tch Big bubbles of sparkling light glimmer in the jewel box of the sky Perhaps might also think of fire flies trapped in a sticky black sky In the deep cold of space the stars do not shimmer Humans believe we are master of the world The universe And space-time. Stupid little planetary shits Made it to the moon once And feel that is awesome awesome awesome To reach into space To fly in the stellar winds winds Ethyl clouds nice and thick All organics are here from the stellar deaths, and the stellar sweeping winds. ©2009 itskristinab*tch Zhya: Chasing the Dragon By: GaRe_BeAr Twisting and turning, writhing, and constricted Pointless and stupid painless and wretched Walking this long forgotten path of lone wishing I hadn't came down this road again.. Find a hot date for tonight For the poor souls that travel with me. Are bound and determined to never be free... Chasing the dragon..with its red nostrils flaring Chasing the dragon with its head flaming and spinning... Laying on the ground looking to the sky My head is tormented and I suffer physically too... Chasing the dragon..made my life some sort of zoo.. Now I'm lost after chasing these fantismal and whimsical thoughts of glee.. Chasing the dragon has left me with nothing but sorry and self pity.. To each unto their own and to me another chase, for this is my place. At the dragons tail like a toddler with a dog.. Chasing the dragon..silly little games.. ©2009 GaRe_BeAr Zhya: Undergound Society By: Riasco Unknown to the city lays a society A society that does not discriminate Anyone is accepted no one is left out This society works together as one They like and love eachother Everyone has someone to run to for trouble Even though they stay in darkness they shin brighter then the people above A community as one Hatred is left out no one is alone Underground society they call it But should be called the top society ©2009 Riasco Zhya: Skiddles By: Lonely Winter Immaculate White Serenity Covering autumn imperfections Frozen tundra unfound Solitary formations bound Crystallized designs Beneath diamond waters Unbearable silent Earth Spring forward girth To break this lonely Winter ©2009 Skiddles Zhya: Paint Booth By: Iced_Heart_Ritsu Strokes of color splash the skin Walking into streams of wonder Fingers into red, purple, blue, pink Smudges across your cheek Laughter holding paint brushes Simple waves of the hand Beautiful art Sharing in our dream Close your eyes Let the images dance into your mind You put the smile upon my face We paint our destiny You soul linked to mine We share our hearts Plastering it out onto the canvas Dipping tips into might and music Slowly we paint our future Sly smile spreads across your eyes We dance to our own tune Paint in our hair we laugh Wandering eyes look upon our shared piece Standing hand in hand Sharing our dreams The little paint booth holds for us Opening hearts and minds to new sights We stare into each others eyes Laugh at our paint mess Sharing a kiss knowing We are the ones to paint Our dreams, destiny, future Fingers laced we smile And stare into the open world ©2009 Iced_Heart_Ritsu Zhya: Aurora Borealis By: itskristinab*tch The was odd on this one night So far south as it shouldn't be So odd this unfamiliar, and sudden red and violet streaked sky We are dieing It is the end of the world What i happening What is this shimmering show of strange lights too far south This never happens here It's never been seen by southern eyes Get the flashlights they called Wait for the explosions another voice said It's the end of the world! No it isn't I called It's the wonderful solar particles riding gracefully the curves of the magnetic field Glimmering, shimmering, the majestic color swirled and swayed I could see the electric zing of the lights sliding through the air The odd light buzzing of the ozone rush kiss my inner ears Never had the people seen the spectacle so far south The end of the world they all thought The northern lights so far south The lower east side for night is the home of the borealis aurora and her sister Austrailis. ©2009 itskristinab*tch Zhya: Tissue Issue By: somedude90 I awoke to someone I knew, weeping Giving me the saddening news I was having a good time sleeping Until I heard about my friend Who had met his end. I was sitting in the living room Everyone gathered together And on the coffee table I reached for the tissue Because deep inside I felt this issue... Becoming too much to bear Inside my mind I was running ...Running through empty streets Trying to find where... Where my friend had gone. He couldn't have just flew away But, still I haven't seen him to this day He can't be gone. If so, I'll never ever forget my dear friend... ©2009 somedude90 Zhya: Just In Time By: Cursed_Eternity In the dreamlessness of a deep slumber A high pitched sound pierces the abyss I open my eyes a little to see the time With a quiet groan I smack the offending object Rolling over to return to the peaceful blackness The sound is heard again and I look at the display The red numbers register in the fog and I nearly hit the roof Jumping out of my cozy retreat I hastily throw on the attire I had set out the night before Without even stopping I step into my shoes Nearly forgetting to close the door I don't think I have ever run so fast In what seems like forever I finally reach my destination With two minutes to spare I breath a sigh of relief, I made it ©2009 Cursed_Eternity Zhya: Violet By: Riasco Spring is the time of love and sharing It is endless like a field of viola It spreads through out the world People loving and caring People expression are like violets Colorful and caring ©2009 Riasco Zhya: Autumn By: OUT_OF_ORDER Tranquil is the breeze across my soul Clearing the debris that's left its toll Cluttered is the bottom of my heart The leaves of autumn have played their part Laying to rest, with the changing of seasons The parts of my past, with no more reason Reminiscent of memories from seasons past Though not a one of them was meant to last When time stands still to hold you for a spell Cherish the essence, remember it well For it too shall fade to black in time All things pass this you'll find To each a season unto our very existence With great force still tempted resistance As the autumn leaves fall, the snow will melt The flows will bloom, and the sun will welt ©2009 OUT_OF_ORDER Zhya: Hourglass of Ashes By: bandeka Descent of ashes Watched in vain Charred memories In watching keep me sane Attempts to save But time is ticking on Afraid of future improvisation Coward at my present station So in waiting I remain ©2009 bandeka Zhya: Drifting By: Iced_Heart_Ritsu Swinging back and forth Time and space Soft touches of memories Lost in the unknown Scattered tears Unbelievable fears Fading from sight and heart Come back, come back Words are spoken but lost in the wind Steady drifting along the empty road Are you lost? ©2009 Iced_Heart_Ritsu Zhya: Selfish Devotion to Mars By: itskristinab*tch Venus goddess of love Mercury super hot Ionized and parched. The red one, the god of war His own special, tiny rock floating in the depths of deep, cold, silent space. Red dot smashed against an icky black back-drop smattered with stars. All gods think they are great Above their mortal flock High on Olympus, or across the sea to Roma Maybe just across the valley where Cronus and his titans patrol Selfish gods love to judge and make misery of human lives The force tribute, and for man to pay for his beliefs. No god is better or above his or her selfish thought Not even the mighty bloody god called Mars in love with his Selfish Devotion. Welcome to Mars. ©2009 itskristinab*tch Zhya: What the Feck is Going Here! By: Av4ntgarde What is this perpetual motion. this sad excuse for emotion. Tither and thither we flow and go. without a rhyme or reason we care to know. This is our lives as we suffice it say. suffice it to think be that as it may We live in our lives in eternal motion. blast it all this infernal commotion. Leaving our brains to the matters at hand, we neglect anything that May stay our hand From mindless indulgence in all that we care. our heads are meant to be filled with air I do not care what the rest of you think. everyone wants to avoid a blink Of doubt of courage of something important What will I do that's something more than I don't know i have to admit. but i do know one thing Be that as it may, I still can't say, sorry to admit All I do is wish. still I feel. it may be more than that you call real I really hope that I am right In any case this perpetual fight Should be of some merit. at least as much as you inherit From the masses you watch, and learn from as you will. be at all as it may, still I continue to wish for something better. I have nothing to offer in the way of a letter Of real rhyme and reason to justify my cause. well be that as it may, I think I will stay as I am Ok I'm out of juice ma'am ©2009 Av4ntgarde Zhya: Horror's Smile By: Iced_Heart_Ritsu Glaring of white The harsh stench Red liquid slides down the handle Toothy grin Eyes wide in horror Pleas dances across the face Crumpled onto the floor Piercing screams hit the surface Light pink water washes down the drain Band aids brought out Light hugs and reassuring smiles Hushing of the heart Pick yourself back up Grab the handles Ride along the line of love Fight off the horror's smile and stand brave Ride with life Beat the pain Make horror you mask This is just a dance with all kinds of smiles ©2009 Iced_Heart_Ritsu Zhya: Stupidity By: Kitten the time eludes me, beyond my grasp the life of love, holds me in this clasp Reasoning, dumbfounded as to why you chose me Lusting for the hope that must set me free Why are they fast talkers Why are we slow learners Hate looming high above Though you fit me like a glove I yearn for more More life to give More love to receive Why must we all live With this blasted stupidity This bloody meaning This gruesome fate Why is there this love That only breeds hate ©2009 Kitten Zhya: The Albino Coffee Bean By: Iced_Heart_Ritsu Lack of color eludes me Strong scents invades my senses The dancing mixtures of cultures Beats and rhymes Forked tongues lay wide Brought into the passion of taste Open to the timeless hobby Strong cup of laughter Mixed with some tears and fights Mixed skin is only a thing of sight Albino you say Unique is what I say Energy that burns bright Warm and strong Standing proud as a albino coffee bean Energetic Strong Mixed Lucky ©2009 Iced_Heart_Ritsu Zhya: Interruptions By: Crash00 I started before you finished..... But you never let me start I waited before you got there But you always beat me It stops being fun after awhile He said, she said You say , I say Red fish , blue fish Who knows where this will end I don't know if it ever really began One thing is for certain My thoughts are always cut off blindingly You begin where I end I think, but you know Time grows short, but there is so much of it Then everything stops, before the excitement I would love to continue I like talking and spouting, and sharing But you can't, won't let me So I will end by saying this..... Never take life toooo seriously Shower at least thrice a week And NEVER whatever you do.......OHH LOOK SOMETHING SHINEY!!! ©2009 Crash00 Zhya: A Couple More Steps By: Av4ntgarde A couple more steps is all I see. that is what life has for me What I choose to make of it. what I take and what I get Every conversation I await. the flow in the direction of this same fate Hoping as I do to avoid. deserving as I know I indulge Every talk may come to this. may not but I expect no mercy What will I do with the rest of my life What will I do with the rest of my life Where am I going, what is the point How will I bust up out of this joint Do I care and what's beyond? the only question for which I have a liking I will sit and I will see. if there is such a thing as destiny. I will sit and you will see, what fate has in store for me That is all I have to say I will see how patience pays ©2009 Av4ntgarde |
