I Want People to Share Their Poetry Stories of Experiences

I went back to a place
To see those wonderful lights
With flames that brightened
Up the sky
I see.. This is it? Isn't it?
I found peace
I found treasure
I found me
But with this slightest part
Something is missing
I remember it is you...

Just out for a walk after an early stack
Not looking for trouble not watching my back
Mothers with prams holding hands with their kids
Not paying attention to the car as it skids
Caught completely off guard not expecting what comes
One...

Your eyes are black.

Your eyes are black again.

Put fear into me.

Fear into me, into me.

I won't turn away.

Your smile is wicked.

You smile wicked again.

Bleed into, into me.

Scream to me, to me.

I won't turn away.

Won't go...

I've come to the part in my life when it is time for me to change, and this Bruce Springsteen song came on the radio today and inspired to write down my thoughts. Someone how I feel relaxed among all the chaos swirling around me here...

The Seed Of Lust

From the moment our eyes met,
The seed of lust was planted in the earth,
A new beginning, engulfed in darkness,
Hidden, time will only tell this seed’s worth.

Emotions rain upon the soil, watering, feeding the spore...

I could write forever.
Words came out like water.
Now I don't write and I can't write.
I just don't give a fuck anymore.
Thank you.
You've changed me.
Everything that was me.
I hate you.
I wish you would just die.
Me telling myself...

death walks with me death surrounds me with peaceful quiet death opens it's arms to me in it's dark embrace I can feel my soul become undone death walks beside me tempting me to come to him with promises of forever he tells me I can...

You're in my thoughts
You're on my mind
We are two
But one of a kind.
I think of you
And I just melt
No stronger feelings
Ever felt.
You make me smile
You make me glow
I know in time
Our love will grow.
I give my heart
To you a gift
You...

Pearl is pretty and sho' nuff fine, Pearl is a real good friend of mine. She drinks and smokes but hardly ever gets tight, but Pearl didn't come home last night...

This precious childThis girl today.Waitingto break free.Because he won't give up the key.Don't remind of that day,where I sat in gray.Flowers all around,yet not a single sound,except for bombings flying down.Meadows in black and white,a...

I love the night
The crickets song
Within the darkness
I belong.
Specks of light
On velvet black
Stars above
No beauty lack.
I love the smell
The scent of night
Amongst the bleak
And lack of light.
I love to watch
The shadows sway...

Don’t be afraid of your best, it’s all you can beShine your light bright for the all the world to see,because your dreams are never far, they are always within reach,the distance of how much in your self you believeYour best is...

I begin, I wonder, I curiously see,
surrounded by the immense vast universe,
held together by a gravitational pull.
I stare, I question, I live,
to light up the dark skies,
A luminous sphere, I burn proudly.
I enjoy, I play, I...

A smile on your face I hope this will bring
In your eyes I see something
I speak to you from my heart
It's been this way from the start
We haven't known each other that long
but my feelings are true and strong
You are very special to me...

There once was a road,
Long and less travelled;
There once was a road,
A mystery unraveled.

There once was a bird,
Who flew through the moonlight;
There once was bird,
Who left his mark on the night.

There once was a rose,
That...

Drunk again,
keep it in,
try your hardest,
but don't let them in.

Here I stay,
where they can't hide,
lock myself away,
but now show me their lies...

This is my poem I am sharing it please leave me critiques.

hopeless is the dreamer that keeps dreaming
eyes hollowed by the shadows that plagues the mind
it breaks, it crumbles, it turns to ash
everything that once provoked has turned numb and cold
lifeless...
the drum, the screech, the scream...

deadly beats of a deadly heart
cutting edge of a partial start
wanders the wonderful flowers
why in dark, still shines the stars

from the dooms day of heart
the buds of stars arose
from the shield breaking apart
out of the closet...

(I thought this was me near my low point, but it seems more like my path now that I'm looking back at it...)

"Give in" it says
Let go of my being completely
"Embrace it" it suggests
Don't let the others deter
"Take my hand" it...
