You can't

It must rise
and rise...
I think,
I see
your face
in heaven...
Too gentle
to have
lived
in this city,
too pretty
to have
walked
here
all alone.
Your laugh,
like a
child,
care-free and
wild
filled our
somber
family
with smiles.
Too many
sad times,
you sat
with me
and talked -
walked
everywhere
a child
may go...
made me
forget
your step
was slow.
You taught
me things
like kindness
when all else
here
was black
with blindness.
People
were mean
But not
you,
stranded in
your world
between
good and
bad...
the times
we had!
I should
remember
the beach

Yesterday seemed so real
I could see, hear, focus and feel
Today seems so wrong
Just another place I don't belong
Ink runs from my eyes to this sheet
Emotion leaks from veins
Broken words and sorrow meet
Dying just as fast as they came
Don't cry for me
That won't be right
You can see
I'll take my life tonight
It doesn't seem okay
But trust me, I know
Believe the words I say
It's to a better place I go
Nothing now seems fair
But look into my heart
Can't you see my despair?
Can't you see I'm falling apart?
Here it goes again
I begin to descend
Hurting deeper inside of me
Never really meant to be
Drowning in fuel and bur
I'll never know what it's like to be free
Every memory sewn into my skin reminds me
Of the pain that stops me from living
The horrors that haunt me are unforgiving
It's like I'm the only one with these feelings
And with so many scars that it's revealing
My breath starts to slow as I am thinking
My eyes cry dust while I am dreaming
I used to love dreams...
Especially when I was flying
But now it seems...
In them, I'm always dying
Now I am just a puppet
Dangling from the strings
I wonder how I missed it
The moment I lost everything
The pain inside slowly goes numb
As I inject the poison in
Every emotion becomes like one
And I
My Blood, My Vengeance by DeviousKid45, literature
Literature
My Blood, My Vengeance
Granting you forgiveness, none,
For what matters most is what you've done,
Don't take it too kindly,
Thinking you'll ever get away,
But alas, you are sadly mistaken,
If you think that even for a moment,
That you will ever get away,
I am patient, no more,
Crime that you committed,
Cannot be pardoned,
Your soul will not have peace,
I will hunt you down even as you plead,
I have no mercy,
I do not forgive,
I forget your crimes, not,
They are burned within my mind,
As I see the one I loved suffer,
From such an unspeakable sin,
How dare you even think,
That you could commit a crime,
Thinking it justified,
I say peace, not anymore,
I wage a war
The candle tempts me
in the dead of winter.
The soft glow
shines through the darkness
And finds its way to me.
I let it guide me
through the cold harsh winds of Fate.
The candle still burns,
as I find my way to it,
offering its warmth.
Yet I pause.
Standing close enough to feel
the tempting touches of its warmth.
Calling to me
to come and hold the flame.
Mesmerized I reach out for the flame.
Yet I do not get close enough
For fear of being burned.
Perhaps my mind is better
off left in this bizarre dimension
though nothing makes sense
even to me.
So I will gladly, with the purple cat
and his cunning grin, laugh
with a
Ha ha Ha ha Ha
Or have a cup of tea with my friend
Mad Hatter. But, shhhhhhhhh
La La La La La
Don't tell him that
it is not his tea what
I desire on my virgin lips.
Even the shade of the
painted roses, cannot
compare to my telltale blush.
But once awake, I look around
to the world I despise.
Desperately searching for
my white rabbit
with his ticking clock
To no avail, here I sit
wishing for the key to my escape
to my Wo
"Do you fear death?"
The question loomed in the air before my body, as if a sword looming over someone almost conquered by their enemy. But I looked down at my hands and then back up, only to say, "Have you ever felt the pain of watching two lovers embrace at the end of a movie? It's supposed to be a happy ending. But your heart tells your lungs to stop breathing for just a minute because it will never ever be yours."
"Do you fear death?"
A question repeated deserves an answer. But instead, my trembling hands sat clenched on my lap, the blue ink like veins showing through the frail covering that might rip apart any second. "Do you kno
Fallen Angel
Crawling in my forlorn appearance
I hide my soul behind these tattered wings
Tattered and broken as they are
Plucked of light, stained in tears and blood.
In quiet despair upon the cold earth
Smeared in dirt I crouch upon my weary knees
And clutched timidly between my fingers
Rests one last jewel of Hope.
A single unblemished plume plucked
From the silver light of dawn
A feathered ray of light from beyond
To illuminate the void that has me bound.
This precious barb of silk
Once lost as I was and forgotten
Blazes now to immerse me in radiant bliss
To wash away the pain, draw me from the abyss.
So now I fade away…
