sad poetry (Remove filter)
Have you ever waited a long time?*
As months chased after years, your waiting neared the full ten-year mark.
Have you ever prayed long into the night, only to weep when your prayers go unanswered?
Has the inability to reap the material and spiritual rewards of your efforts ever weighed like a stone in your chest?
Sometimes, a person feels unbearably heavy, as if tons of burdens rest upon their shoulders—
the weight of injustice...

Don't Look At Me
Don't look at me
Don't look at me
Don't look at me
Don't look at me
When the bullet's fired
You see the blood
I see that blame
Would you fight back
If the war was within you?
And I lost again
Don't look at me
Don't look at me
Don't look at me
Don't look at me
I don't want
A bed of roses
I just want one that'd never die
And I don't want
The world to lose it
Just not to ...

Burning Ashes
A name and a face,
You had none but still a presence;
Lost in the sea of self justification but still alive, or breathing to say the least.
When the wrong and the right doesn't matter anymore
And when the strong and the weak both lost
I realised the wrongs and the loss and a loss and another one.
A new scar with tick of the clock
Appeared and disappeared but the pai...

Secrets
If I could see myself from another star
Would everything seem alright?
Secrets I've never kept before
And now they're buried deep inside my heart
Why?
When I sit amongst the other stars
I feel like I'm in a nightmare?
In my room all alone?
Surrounded by clones who doesn't even know how to pretend to like me
Can I control the darkness that's killing me with every breath?
You've told m...

In Shadows, In Truths
The light from behind hid the flaws in the lines
And the smiles that came looked too much like mine
Don't trust and you won't be betrayed
Don't hope and you won't cry when it's late
But you won't see that far with eyes struck on the ground
Who you saw that day wasn't who I found
Where the sight begins is where the story ends
And where the good side dies is where you find heaven

Infinity Marathon
My mahogany desk and the bright world beyond,
I reached out my hand for someone to hold on;
Nothing much happened.
And now I'm feeling so alone...
I just wanna go back home.
You don't deserve to die and I don't deserve to decide what you want.
I got a thousand more days to live and the number doesn't decrease no matter how much I count
But now I'm feeling so alone...
I just wanna go ...

I didnt do it
That pain in your chest when your crying at night tears pure white
Show me the pain and insecurities you continue to shoulder
So i can come in like the rude friend that doesnt ask to come over
Knock shit over
Running in the dark until I fall off the worlds edge whose missing me anyway
I think about that everyday falling asleep waking up still in darkness
Trying to harness

THEY
As dark as the night
This is how their eyes look like.
They told me once
Sad eyes are coal black.
From crime to punishment
They got used to travelling
Hand in hand with the act of crying.
As deep as the sea
This is how they look at the pain.
Just like the drops of the rain
This is how they shed tears
Behind the bars.
No need to use fancy words
To tell the sto...

The rythm of life
The heart purity is a mind of understanding an wisdom nit in anger but in love an truth
The life of men are sometimes jugde for emotional weakness but the strength us in the emotion we feel
The body of the soul is like water that asorb the memory of the life we live
The fear of it an not knowing are the understandable of other is the greatest fear of men
The fear of many is the ab...

In 10 years
I hate the question where do you see yourself in 10 years
To be frank some days I don’t see myself being here
Weather I am the one to pull the trigger
Or a spare of the moment accident
is the one to cause me to take my final breath
I believe in my final breathes I could peace within myself
But there are some days
where I just want to say that only happiness will be in my life

Cigarretes In The Mirror
Tell me where you'll go with all your burns,
reserve smile whispering the truth,
vanishing without a trail every time as she turns,
old age burdain and transient youth.
Blue as neverending sea,
light and blue
all I ever needed,
all I've never proved,
all I ever needed,
light and blue,
blue as neverending sea.
Don't tell me why have you returned with all your burns,

Battles never fought
Lemme collect these shambles, ones scattered in the name of cards ungambled.
Battles that left me rattled. Pieces that never fell together.
Realisations gone to tatters. Memories forgotten, altogether.
These pieces of armor unfused forever.
Energies wasted in mindless splendor, with ideals crafted in inks without matter.
These caricatures of youth, wasted in canvas of unwritten ...

A Mess of Future Heathens
Seeing the shadow in vision
Getting feared of what the great poison
Hiding out back to the scratch
Tired of being what they're interpreted
To be looked up in the sun
To be puked in deep water run
To be lost in relief distance
I was fight,
But no lights were made
So where is is heading through wind?
Passing it off to be betrayed and seen
That soak tree's been relied on
As this volt i...

Blinded
To some degree
we all enjoy a little mystery
Developing a sense of curiosity
The whole "what could be"
But sadly
That's not reality
Creating our own world
Regardless of incompatability
Tunnel vision ensued
Rose colored glasses
In full bloom
Despite the apparent
You created confinement
Within your own lie.

Numb.
Numb.
Dry and numb.
Grief cannot be duplicated, though it can be felt, again and again.
We’ll just go to sleep and never cry again. so it shall be dreamed, not wept.
It will fade, but right now, we sleep.
Numb and dry.
Numb.

Beating myself up
Is there something wrong with you?
Here we are again, back at square fucking one.
All because poor little cameron can’t seem to control his feelings.
Pathetic.
Do you have a few loose screws?
You literally choose to love people who just don’t care.
And when you cry at night, does it feel good?
Relapse, do you think you should?
Because as far as I can tell,
You’re going t...

Entirety (The Whole)
The sights of ourselves still shape us to divide,
immediate response to the craves and madness,
we feel the way we feel but tonight it's you inside,
burried in the senses out of the lightness.
And days are still days but the trouble collides,
for all the reasons we chose not to revile,
and all our fears, childlish alike,
echoing through our minds, rejecting denial.
Stay where you are a...

Resistance
And tides are still the same as they were,
fluid numbers, one piece in folded milions,
telling us why we all need to reach the bottom,
embracing drops of broken brilliance.
Wait until it all comes down,
your whispers rest in front of the broken Avalon,
inside our shell is something we all found,
blue-red pictures reflected by the dawn.
And tides are still the same as they were,

Wish You Were Here
Wish you were here,
to break down all the differences,
to shake down all the borders,
to melt down all the distance,
to connect all the figures
in the right place.
What else could, what else could confront us?
In the same way we breath,
in the same way we cry,
wish you were here,
tonight when the whole world is empty
and there is no one left to die.
Wish you were here,
to create all...

We Were Who We Were
It was 1990 when we met,
before we were who we were.
The nineties were running through sprinklers
in summer,
playing whiffle ball in the yard,
popsicles,
make-believe games, stick horses,
and dances to Green Day.
The 2000s were much the same,
with crushes, dear diaries,
womanhood, and makeup
sprinkled about like the dandelion seeds
we used to blow into...

Baltimore.
Burned out, hidden from the crowds inside of stranger's minds,
there are things to be found
in a time after time...after time.
But look,
not always you can read the last memories
inside of the universe book,
you always share what it takes
but now it gets more than you took.
No, stranger!
Nothing left to be undermined,
simple, eternal, contagious,
chasing ashes from those emp...

Someday we'll find a way to
protect our dreams and seek our hopes,
words - soft as July's razors
disappearing path, forbiden trace,
screaming loud, carving into stones - deliverance, replace -
''true love hurries but it always waits'',
never...in the same place.
Someday we'll find a way to
fly away and disappear,
going higher as we never did before,
staring at the same old mindless m...

Chasing Light
Speak louder so they can't hear the silence instead,
turmoils and echos around my rigorous head,
keeping all the truths that we want to destroy
but we ought to protect,
see... I am nothing but a builder
but tonight I dreamt I was
an architect.
Momentum holds and it wouldn't rest,
dissolved in same old liquid mess,
vibrating body around its perfect chest

Two Separated Stars
Two Separated Stars
- Reinmari
Sunlight clasps the earth
Moonbeams kiss the sea
I've watched as the sun kills itself
To let the moon breathe
I've always known the story
Of mountain, river and ocean.
Mountains mingle with the river
And rivers with the ocean
But as long as..
Pale stars still shine above
Falling leaves are still dancing
Cupid and Psyche are still inlove

Sorrow
One cold winters day,
In a place not too far away.
A friend is living a lie,
forever telling me she wishes to die.
She lives in pure hell,
Although nobody is able to tell.
She says she is "done"
Although she has sure fooled everyone.
Although she cannot fool me.
I've had the luxury to listen and see.
Things started looking better.
A few weeks go by and she recieves...

Once I held his love

deeply embedded
into my heart so it

Until the day my brown

my heart was ripped
straight out of my chest
leaving a gaping hole
there where his love
