"Love's
Bitter Silence"
The words are
left unspoken
the gestures left
unseen
a communication
breakdown
strictly silence
in between
The words that
once came easy
a forgotten script
of life
and all that now
remains
are just words
of rage and strife
Not willing to
even speak
or utter a single
word
afraid to misinterpret
unsure of what
you heard
So we pass each
day in silence
unable to communicate
each thinking that
the other
feels nothing for
us but hate
But the feelings
are unfounded
for when push had
come to shove
what we truly felt
for each other
was a deep undying
love
"Memories
in Time"
I ask for her
forgiveness
but she does not
hear my pleas
she turns to speak
with others
not seeing me on
my knees
I wish I could
reclaim it
friendship that
once was mine
but all of that
is lost to me
just memories in
time
There is no one
else to turn to
nor anyone else
to blame
alone I suffer
the consequence
just to sit here
in my pain
my life now has
no meaning
no rhythm and no
rhyme
for the love I
had is lost to me
just memories in
time
The forlorn look
and pain you see
written on my face
is because the
love I lost is one
I cannot replace
perhaps one day
I will have the strength
and from this pit
I'll climb
but til that day
your love for me
will be just memories
in time
"Loneliness
Amongst Friends"
You are overwhelmed
with fear
anxiety has you
weighed down
you try to run
and get away
feeling there is
no help to be found
You think they
are out to get you
on the mission
of your demise
afraid to even
look at them
hiding the fear
that is in your eyes
Scared to be around
them
thinking they represent
the end
but truth be told
they are here to help
for you are surrounded
by your friends
"The
Chat Room"
The mood of
the evening is lost on me
somewhere between
anger and tranquility
perhaps I am just
failing to comprehend
where the bitterness
starts and the gaiety ends
The tension is
pungent as it hangs in the air
the trampling of
egos without worry or care
the insults are
many, the compliments few
the most common
responses all end with "F**K YOU!!*
Feeling oppressed
and not willing to speak
the victim of many
who think you are meek
but you dare not
refute them or show they are wrong
for their whole
self worth is the belief they are strong
So when being annoyed
thusly, there is one little trick
to eliminate harassers,
just give them a click
if this seems to
fail you, do not feel gloom
as the last of
resorts, you could just leave the room
"Grim
Reaper's Lament"
He enters this
world from he knows not where
as the wind whispers
through his long sleek black hair
trailed by the
echoes of lost souls and screams
an image seen by
many in their haunting dreams
He is but a legend,
a myth yet unborn
all the world's
hatred on his shoulders borne
From the Sea of
Hades, where he must make his home
entering this realm
for the freedom to roam
"Of Love and Loss"
She asked of
me to wait for her
but would not say
what for
her not knowing
how patiently
I wait outside
her door
but through the
window I could see
a most familiar
form
and it was this
sight that caused my heart
to from my chest
be torn
I have asked myself,
time and again
what do I think
I'll gain
when every time
I share myself
it always results
in pain
you would think
somehow that over time
I would learn to
stay away
to not willingly
subject myself
to these games
that people play
I find myself lost
in remorse
for a love I thought
I had
but the true nature
of our love
is what has made
me sad
so now I sit in
silence
confused and all
alone
swallowing the
lump I feel inside
my heart which
turned to stone
I feel my life is
worthless now
unsure of how to
cope
things that made
me happy once
have now made me
lose hope
and it is not suicide
I seek
or a quick means
to an end
but simply just
someone to speak
and listen as my
friend
