No one knows what I'm feeling
My heart is pounding
I'm full of sadness and rage
I need someone to please let me out of this cage
I have seen so much and felt so much pain
But no one knows what I feel
I do not tell my hardest ties
Hold my hand and look me in the eyes
Take me back when there were no worries or whys
I miss the free flying
I miss letting my hair down and running around
Someone help me up and take me away from here
I'm ready to be on my way
Let me close my eyes and fade with the day
I hurt deep down inside
So many mixed emotions
Take me by the hand and walk me with me by the ocean
Help me
I'm falling into the hole
I'm scared I don't want to lose my soul
The lights are dimming
Your voice is growing faint
I want to say I love you
I will miss you so
Hold me close and whisper in my ear
Tell me you love me
I will always be near
I wonder what will happen
When the day comes
That I must leave you...
I wonder will you cry
I wonder will you be happy
I wonder will you miss me...
Will you lie awake at night
Remembering all the good times
Or will you sit
And only think of the bad...
Will you wonder where I am at night
Will you wonder what I'm doing
Or will you just not care...
Will it hurt you to think
Of all the times we've shared
Or will they just slip your mind
Like they were never there...
Will you remember all the laughs
Or will you forget those
And put them in your past...
Will you remember all the tears
Or replace them with all of your fears...
Will you pretend like we never happened
And let us go along the years...
Will you drown out all of your sorrows
With laughter and cheers...
Will you forget that yesterday was here
And wave goodbye to all of our memories...
Will you try to hold on to everything we've got...
Or say goodbye to old times
And go on with everything your not...?
Our words can't express the loss we all feel,
or fill the void left in our heart.
Only when we remember her family is real
can our healing process truly start.
We need to recall all the memories we've had
of the woman whose life now transcends,
and know that her being has made our hearts glad
even as her life here with us ends.
Her presence lives on in the hearts of us all,
through the lives of her daughters and sons,
and in all of the pictures that hang on our wall,
and the memories of all her loved ones.
So often there are tears at moments like this.
Who knows how our hearts will respond?
Just rejoice in the life of the woman we'll miss,
as she moves to her new home beyond.
Don't recall her with sadness, or heaviness of heart.
When you think of her don't let a tear drop.
Just remember she's right where we all got our start. she will forever be in our hearts.

A loving tribute to your grandmother. You celebrate her life and how she affected yours.
Awwww
Very nice. I lost my grandmother Christmas eve. I really enjoyed it
That was the poem all of the comment wasn't saved, It was very moving to me.
This is wonderful hun, very touching :)
Love is eternal
Love is the wind, whispering its many thoughts to you in the night.
Love is the feeling I felt when I first met you
Love is flying on the tails of many dreams
Love is the moon, shining alone, as a beacon in the hours of darkness
Love is the alpha emotion
Love is the entity of all
Love is the stars, always hanging in the endless darkness of sky
Love is the ever lasting conflict within
Love is the conquest of fulfillment that we feel needs to be met
Love is the bonding of two souls, entwined in the beatings of their hearts
Love is a journey to discover the souls of others
Love is an adoration, a forever night long vigil, never ending
Love is an everlasting yearning to be connected to mind and heart
Love is spending hours drowning into the depths of your eyes
Love is the feeling I feel when I look at you
COMMENTS
That's how I want to feel.
Love is xChemicalisionx
Love is xChemicalisionx
Love is. . .You get the point ;D
What do you see when you look at me?
Do you see my smiles?
Do you see the laughter?
Do you see all the happiness?
Or do you see past, the front to what really lies beneath?
Do you see the walls I put up to keep them out?
Do you see all the tears that stained my face?
Do you see the fears that I try to hide?
Do you see the scars inside of me?
Those scars that wont let me free
Those scars that run deep inside
Those scars that mar my very soul
Those scars I try so hard to hide
So do you see the truth in me or just the truth I want you to see?
COMMENTS
You put up a good front. Without your poetry hinting at what lies beneath, I would only know what you show us on the surface.
I see a Kinky Vampire *-*
I hide behind a mask
You can't see my face
Looking at first glance
I'm in a happy place
The truth is, that's a lie
But you can't really tell
that in the back of my mind
I think the world should rot in hell
What's the point of living
If we are all going to die
What's the point of being happy
If in the end we're going to cry
But this is something no one sees
This is something no one knows
And yet deep inside of me
This feeling of hatred grows
So even though this mask reveals a happy side of me,
I use the mask as a shield to look at what others can never see.
Here I stand,
Until the time
Was it a crime to see what cannot be touched
Hear voices speak words that can't be undone
Was it my fault I was invincible
To the naked eye, I am invisible
I cannot be seen
Because no one wants to see me
I am different
Different from the rest of them
So they ignore me
But I don't ignore them
No one is friendly
Why were they so blind
Because I am not them
I am only me
I am different
I can see them
But they can't see me
I watch them fall
Divided they fall
Together they die
But here I stand
Until the end of time
Was it a crime that I was unique
Original to the human mind
I was invisible to there standards
Invisible to their lies
as they kneel to beg
I watch them beg for dear life
But here I stand until the end of time
Was it a crime for me to live my life
A crime for wanting to survive
No one would answer
So I will wait until the end of time

There's another story behind this one, isn't there? I want to read that one, too.
So cold and dark, so empty and alone,
Never knowing what real love was.
So fragile and closed, so hateful and cruel, never to open my heart to anyone, and then there was you.
So scared, so new, not knowing what was to come, I gave you what little I had left. Hoping that you would want me the way that I am. Timid and frightend, wanting to love again, and then there was you.
A little relief from the beating that my heart took, trying to remember what it was like. You showed me that it was real and true, you touched me so gentle, you saw right through me.
All the pain and distrust disappeared that day, the love that consumed me felt so perfect and so right. Still hesitant to let anyone see who I really was, and then there was you.
Believing in me, trusting me, loving me unconditionally, letting go of all the fear, anger, and regret. Knowing that it is ok just to be who I am.
Crying, laughing, talking, sharing emotions that I tried to hide for so long, All because there was you.
Could you make this pain go away?
Could you fill my empty heart?
Could you heal all my wounds,
and promise we will never be apart?
Promise me you'll never leave,
and make everything all right.
Promise me when I start to fall,
you'll hold on to me tight.
Promise me you'll protect me and help wipe my tears,
Promise me your love for the rest of our years
Promise me you'll love me no matter what I do,
and I will promise to only love you
so please swear to me me that this promise you will keep
going down memory lane brings me so much pain to see how happy we used to be its been a year of ups and downs. i want to make this fight worth it i dont want to lose you. you tell me this will be ok in the end, that we will one day be happy again that we just need to take control of whats going on around us before its too late and we lose eachother. going down memory lane brings me so much pain to see how happy we used to be. i dont want to let you go but i know it would be worth the fight in the end for you will always be the love of my life. i just cant wait for that day ill become your wife and will have our fairytail ending like we always planned to. going down memory lane brings me so much pain to see how happy we used to be. but for now all we can ever be is friends.
I love you.
Those are the words that open my thoughts, my heart, and my soul.
Those are the words that fill my head, this book, and the hole
That continued to grow with every mistake I made, every person that I lost
Left me with a debt that my mind could not pay, so my heart had to pay the cost.
Those are the words that are my gift, my nepenthe, and my pain.
Those are the words that make me happy, make me crazy, and make me sane.
I love you.
Those are the words that open my thoughts to happiness and sorrow.
The joy of being with you today and fear of losing you tomorrow.
Those are the words that open my heart up to you
To show you how I feel about everything you do.
Those are the words that open my soul and everything inside.
All the feelings that I have and all the pain that I hide.
I love you.
Those are the words that is my gift to you from me.
To bring you lots of joy and make you very happy.
Those are the words that are my nepenthe for past memories
They bring my mind to rest and it slowly starts to ease.
Those are the words that are my pain that slowly eats away
At my mind and soul and makes them start to rot and decay.
I love you.
Those are the words that fill my head with happy thoughts of us.
All the romantic memories and times of love struck lust.
Those are the words that fill this book from the start until the end.
It shows in every page, how much I tried to tend.
And those are the words that fill the hole.
I love you.
Those are the words that make me happy deep within my heart.
When you say them to me, my body starts to warm, each and every part.
Those are the words that make me crazy when I know not what to think.
All my thoughts start to spin and my sound mind starts to sink.
Those are the words that make me sane when my thoughts are crystal clear.
Now I know what to say as I whisper in your ear,
I love you.
I've been here for a while now. How do I get out? No one comes to save me, even when I shout. Do people even hear me?
Or do they only hear themselves. Maybe they don't recognize me
& I'm just an unknown book on a library shelf. I seem to be invisible or maybe they just can't see. I raise a hand and ask for help but they ignore my plea. Do they not like me? Or do they not care? I hope I get out soon because survival here is rare.
Maybe you could help me? Do you see me trapped in here?
Or are you like the others that don't even care?
All these emotions are being twisted within my veins; they’re starting to suffocate my mind. I’m trapped within these walls that seem to be getting smaller & smaller. Nobody can see that I’m crying behind my fake smile & laugh. I’m screaming from the top of my lungs but they can’t hear me, I’ve got them way too fooled by my laughs that they can’t see inside. They don’t see the truth but I don’t even think they‘re trying to see beyond the surface. All these emotions are being twisted within my veins; they’re starting to suffocate my mind. I can hardly breathe or think about what’s going on. I can’t take control; I’ve pushed my emotions too far back so now they’re all coming out at once. I don’t know which tears belong to the situation. All these emotions are being twisted within my veins; they’re starting to suffocate my mind. I’m sitting here crying for help just wanting somebody to listen & somebody to care, I’ve been here for awhile now & nobody even looks my way I just hate that I have to end it this way…
I sit all alone in this room
As memories unfold
Tears streaming down my face again
This pain never grows old
Some say it's a state of mind
But it's my heart that really hurts
I only aim to please you all
But what's a smile really worth?
This is the story of my life
The saga of my tears
A story told a thousand times
Remade over the years
If you listen up closely
Maybe you might hear
The beating of my heart
And the saga of my tears
They say that life's a trip
I hit the ground face first
Lost everything I ever wanted
But it could have been worse
Or that's what they tell me
Do they sit alone in the dark?
Or stare into broken mirrors
Thinking it's the pieces of their heart
This is the story of my life
The saga of my tears
A story told a thousand times
Remade over the years
If you listen up closely
Maybe you might hear
The beating of my heart
And the saga of my tears
This is the saga of my tears
A saga that never ends
This a the saga of my tears
That will shatter all thats near
I'm a free spirit that has been shot down and wronged
I pleaded for help a kind gentle mercy
My heart felt like it rose up to my throat as you choked the life from me
I cried with pain; can barely speak your name
Throat swelling burning like a flame
This fire this burning I'm yearning for help
This is all I have ever felt
My life as its slipping
Veins running cold
My blood as its churning its last
My lungs choking for air breathing heavy
And nobodies there to hold me tight
Or watch this site as I fall to my knees
In a last try to be set free abandoning all of me
Because there is nothing left for me
Why can't I ever just see?
As the rain falls it sucks the life from me
My one joy to hear and feel the rain and it consumes me
And this ending pain; no more shame
I have a friend, she's silver and she shines,
Her favorite subject's art and her favorite shape is lines,
Her favorite color's red, she draws upon my skin,
Some lines thick, while other lines thin,
Sometimes she draws deep and the blood begins to run,
To you it's disgusting, but it's just an addiction I begun,
Never in patterns, just a line here or there,
Never too much, just the pain that I can bare,
Her favorite subject's art, and her favorite shape is lines,
Her favorite color's red, my razor blade,
she's silver and she shines.
I would need this gun
To complete my mission
I would need this CD
So I can listen
A cell phone
To say good bye
Kleenex
For my cry
This is the sweetest suicide
A car
So I can drive
A pin and pad
To leave a note
Alcohol
To numb the pain
Weed
To fuck up my brain
This is the sweetest suicide
Photos
To remember the good times
A destination
To do my crime
The ocean
Because I love it
A watch
To mark the time
Farewell
Goodbye
I can't make up my mind
This is the sweetest suicide
I feel the wind blowing up my sleeves
The ocean water touching my knees
The earth is so beautiful
To bad I have to leave
The tide is high
I take a swim
Now I start counting
Down to my sin
The gun is loaded
My letters wrote
Blues are playing
Calls are made
Messages sent
I hit this weed
And take a sip
Splatter my brains
And fall into the ocean
This is the sweetest suicide
Farewell
Goodbye
I woke up in a world where a person close to me felt like a stranger.
I had to be dreaming this guy laid down the drinks, I no longer feared his abusive behavior.
Couldn't'imagine it really happening to me,
As I realized these twisted thoughts of nightmares were realities.
Remembering school nights I'd beg my sisters not to fall asleep.
Queasy feeling in my stomach knowing where the late nights would lead.
Thrusting himself inside'figuring the pleasure drained out my pleads,
Because when my teary eyes looked upon his I saw nothing but greed.
Feeling unvalued like an empty soul,
I would beg God to not let me feel this hurt anymore.
Bruises made inside but outside only my eyes were swollen.
Left lying naked at the age of twelve with all my innocence stolen.
God'give me a reason'what did I do to deserve this?
How did I end up in hell when all my life'I tried all I could to live perfect?
.....
Now, no longer did I care about the physical pain,
When it's nothing compared to the shit that starts up in the brain.
Things began to change'I automatically fell silent and pushed people away,
It never mattered when no one wants to hear of this kind of pain.
All of this shit made it hard to trust anyone.
Even brainwashed myself to thinking I would never love nor be loved.
With no direction to turn,
Since 'everybody goes through their own problems'
Tired of comparing my life with others,
Is all that supposed to take away my troubles and dissolve them?
At night I sit alone and watch the shadows dance around.
I hold my breath and listen yet silence is the only sound.
I reach for some comfort yet feel no embrace.
I am tired of the emptiness and loneliness of this place.
I can feel no more hurt because I have learned to live with my pain.
I often wonder how I survived and continue to stay sane.
I have hurt so deeply and cried too many tears.
I have been empty and broken for so many years.
I am tired of pretending that I am fine and all is okay.
I am tired of hiding behind this mask I wear every day.
I have drifted so far and can no longer be saved.
These feelings hold me captive and to them I am enslaved.

And Nothing more
As I sit here starring at my scars I think living life is like living hell. My scars are like questions that I could only answer. I don't cry tears any more, I cry blood.I'm tired of lies that life holds and things that don't make any since. Once my life is over my life is complete.
My memories are painful giving up is my only solution. I cant move on with the future when I'm still with the past. I can't believe any of this is real. Every thing I had is dissolving like the pills I take to make the pain go away.
I'm trying to escape my life, in away I didn't plan. I don't know how this happened. Life goes by so quickly to a point where I close my eyes and say good bye.
Demanding all of my time
My concentration is captured.
Like a cloud in the shape of a dragon,
You just have to notice.
Feeding from my every thought.
Listening to my sadness chime.
Watching my tears fall silently.
Maturing from my every action.
Cradling my happiness in its cold, gray cape.
Running through my heart I feel his footsteps thump, thud, thump.
Capturing my relativity, flooding my veins, clogging the blood flow.
Stealing my tears, sticking its dagger through my lungs.
Everyday I am dying.
Living in void.
Depression is my friend.
It is like a mind-controlling disease.
It makes you feel worthless and unknown.
It has no mercy, whispering in your ear that
life has no meaning.
It tells you no one cares and why go on.
It makes you feel like you have no purpose.
You want to run and hide but you know it is
close behind following you no matter how hard
you try to escape.
It tells you lies and says nasty things to
you.
It makes you feel empty inside.
It takes a part of you away so you feel
incomplete.
This so called disease is called depression.
As I put the razor to my skin,
I feel the adrenalin,
the pain is a sudden rush to me,
as the blood falls to the floor
I see my pain and worries disappearing.
I hide my scars in fear of what you may say,
but without you these scares will not exist.
My love, my life, my reason
I sit here and bleed.
My smiles, my tears,
my heart tares more and more.
You deny your love, I deny my pain.
The pain I feel when your not by my side.
Some call it love I call it suicide.
The razor can only go to deep,
a person can only bleed so much,
but the pain never ends.
My nights are cold, my arms are empty
The cuts cover up the pain,
My smile covers up the hurt
As you walk along to blind to see my hurt
the days get harder
the nights never seem to end
I fake a smile and wipe my tears away
I forget the truth.
For when I am with you it feels so right.
Without you I find myself lost and confused. Broken and torn.
Kiss my pain away,
Wipe away my blood filled tears,
I long for you to save me
COMMENTS
this is a great piece, very well written. you have good use of imagery and your word choice draws the reader in. =)
She goes about her day to day and does her duties to perfection,
She cries alone and works her way through fears and self rejection.
No one knows this angel is carrying around such grief,
If they only saw a glimpse of things they'd sigh in disbelief.
She seems to be so perfect not one single flaw,
Everyone looks at her with envy If they only knew it all.
Her heart aches with loneliness and her tears disguised with pride,
Why does she care what they think its becoming too much for her to hide.
She sits at home and pours her heart out to a man that doesn't really care,
He never hears a word she says he looks right through her as if she’s not really there.
She is running out of friends to confide in and family's gone astray,
Alone and broken hearted, she slits her wrists and slowly fades away.
did you know?...
did you know that I secretly cry and tear myself to shreds every night?
did you know that behind my seemingly warm happy eyes lies a broken innocent, ravaged by many sinful hands?
did you know that I loathe you for disposing and abandoning me in this forsaken hell?
did you know that I bleed for you, that I dwell in this eternal pain for you, that you bind me to this duty?
did you know that you intertwined you and I and left me to take care of our withering souls?
did you know that for every smile I forcefully press against my face a slit is placed upon my delicate skin?
did you know that everyday you kill apart of who I am, that every time you scream at my wrenching, contorting face I grow number?
do you even know that I exist anymore?
do you know that for every word you say it pierces my heart and I grow closer to my death?
do you even care that you have started my reckoning?
did you even know or acknowledge when I crept upstairs and locked my door, when I slowly consumed the various jagged white little pills, then I pierced my wrist with the oh so familiar razor?
did you know that I did that to escape you because it was the only absolute solution?
do you realize that even as I lay in the plain plush cushions on my final bed with an expressionless face, I still hold nothing but contempt for you?
do you finally understand cursed life you burdened on my fragile shoulders? I don't think you do, you will never understand...will you?
I want to run away
Inside my bright red scream
I want to break the doors
Holding back my dream
Living like this
Checking the skies for rain
A constant reminder
Of this burden and pain
I'm holding on to
A shooting star
Its points cutting my skin
This time it's gone too far
Nothing left to wish on
My bloody star fell
Left me drowning in hopes
Inside my wishing well
Not looking for a hero
To owe such a debt
I could not ask for saving
This loss is not a regret
I want to run away
But there's nothing out there
I want to shatter windows
That look out on nowhere
This is not life
If I'm already dead
My bleeding heart stopped beating
And tears I no longer shed.

Hold me close and don’t let go;
I'm so scared to be alone.
I've been by myself for too long,
And always had to be strong.
Now I only want to rest;
And lay my head on your chest.
Hold me close and don’t let go;
These wars I fight no one knows.
Now whisper how you love me,
Say it tender and softly.
I am weary and soon will sleep,
But with you no longer will I weep.
So hold me close and don't let go,
For I never want to be alone.

This would be a good song.....but these words speak to me in a few ways :)
Life is never good for me and this is what I wish you'd see.
Just let me end it all for I'll be happy in the end, I'll finally be free.
Free from all the pain and torment and the never ending battle.
No more dealing with the arguments and tears, I'd finally be through with it all.
You just don’t seem to understand that by keeping me here your making it worse.
If I were dead and gone by now I'd be happy, I wouldn’t have this life, I wouldn't have the curse.
I’m already considering doing this even without your consent.
I know for sure that once its all over with my heart will finally be content.
So here I am just sitting there, on my bed with a knife to my wrist.
Please everyone don’t be upset, please don’t be pissed.
You just need to know I love you all but couldn’t handle it anymore.
Ok here I go, I’m doing this for sure.
You just need to let me go to heaven now, hopefully God will understand and accept this.
Just tell my baby I love him and I’m sorry I couldn’t give him one last kiss.
Tell everyone I love them and that I'm sorry I had to go so soon and leave them all behind.
But I just needed to end it all and start a new life so happiness I could find.
These are the last words I'll ever be writing down.
I know they are harsh but don’t worry, rest your head, be at ease, don’t make a sound.
Know that I love you and always have but I need to think of me right now and so I said goodbye.
Be happy without me and know that I'm somewhere good, somewhere up high.
I just hope your not crying, I want you to know everything will be ok.
I'll be watching over you and listening to what you have to say.
Just have patience, wait till the day, and I'll see you up here in heaven and we can be together.
Except this time things will be better and you'll see me happy, always and forever.
So stop your weeping and know this was the best thing for me
It was my time to go, your time to set me free.

in this one you say no one knows the pain you feel, i know that kind of feeling. thinking that you dont have anyone that could posibly understand, i still do to this very day. feeling like im in a cage, almost like you and i are a mirror of eachother, but thats how life is, at least in my mind. i hope you find happyness someday with some one that can understand you.
