Demons Within"Demons Within"

Have you ever felt like the walls are closing in
And that narrow passageway continues to grow thin?
I can feel these walls pushing, choking my veins
And squeezing out the life in me, leaving me deranged

I can make these walls crumble like an empire
That has been set ablaze through flare and fire
And every burn I make, I can see a demon
Fly out of my skin the more the burn is deepened

These four walls, four corners, and a floor
Captivate all I see and still furthermore
Within these walls I am my own enemy to my skin
When everything hurts; my horrors lay within

I can take myself and from the beginning
I could brea

So What Do I Do?If only I could read your mind
If only I could interpret you emotions
Understand what you're going through
See through your eyes
Hear through your ears
Feel through your heart
If only I knew how to help you

But I can't
And I don't
And it's killing me
So what do I do?
Tell me.

To Save Your Life

To Save Your Life

Heroes are hard to come by

Especially in this day and age

Because of you- I am still alive

Hail, the vanquisher of pain
-
I fought as long as I could have
But I sank into the weakness below
And I felt my sorrow's wrath
The helplessness took over

My fists let go
Of the resistance

I fell from hope
The light faded in the distance

It was all a dream
A wish...

A simple false belief
I hid...
-
Hands dangled frantically / Tears dripped endlessly
I needed a hero to save me / I yearned to be set free
-
A hand reached out
Held tight...

I was finally found
Relieved sigh...

I rose back to grace
And the darknes

You're My PoisonI'm dying
The pain seeps through
Clutching at my heart
Ripping it to shreds,
You merely watch
Pretending you're not the cuase
Seeing me die slowly
Every time you leave me,
But you return
As you always do
Slowly sucking the poison out
That you yourself placed
And i begin to forget,
Just for a moment,
And fall back into love with you again.
And with every kiss
Every time we fuck
Every second i spend loving you,
I feel the poison
Seeping back into my heart
And with everytime you leave me
i begin to die again
While you pretend not to see.
You're the poison and the antitode
My killer and saviour
The reason i want to live
While i slit my wrists,
Y

Bully"Stupid," "Ugly," "Useless," "Sad."
"Emo," "Silent," "Paranoid," "Mad."
"Ashamed," "Afraid," "Crazy," "Stuck."
"Disgusting," "Alone," "Pathetic," "Out of Luck."

The words never spoken,
Yet always heard.
Not from people around me,
No, that's absurd.

I've heard these words,
Time after time,
They always pierce my heart,
They continuously cross my mind.

But these words were never said.
Never once directed at me.
Maybe they never became reality,
But I saw them spoken in my mentality.

These are the words of a bully.
The words that can tear me apart.
The words that can no longer be erased,
Because they have entered my heart.

GermanyxReader: You and I

Don't you worry there my honey
We might not have any money
But we've got out love to pay the bills

You walked up behind your husband and hugged him. "Luddy, what are you doing?"
He grunted and shifted through more mail.
Reaching out you grabbed a letter, it was another bill. Things had been hard since he lost and now he had an enormous debt to Francis. "Doistu," you whispered in his ear and then kissed him on the cheek, "you need a break."
"Nein, I still have to-." He interrupted himself with a moan of pleasure and frustration as you kissed your way from his cheek to his neck and then to his ear. Biting down gently. "___________..."

To The Beautiful YouTo The Beautiful You:

Here we are, sitting behind these screens of glass,

Reading lines of text, yet smiling, laughing and crying.

It's strange to think that I could have this much fun -

Considering that I've never met you before, but then again

Perhaps that's the reason why I don't have to pretend.

Some people might tell me, that what we have is just a fantasy,

I doubt I'll have the chance to actually see you in this life-time.

But even so, in the time that we've spent together - Well,

I feel as though I've connected with you, more than anyone else.

I feel as though I know you better, than those just a few feet away.

You might tak

Mommy and DaddyMommy, Daddy, are you okay?
You haven't talked at all today.
Mommy, Daddy, can't you see?
You're really starting to hurt me.

All you do is scream and fight,
and I hear it all throughout the night.
Sometimes I think my eyes will run dry,
yet whenever I do, I just continue to cry.

"She doesn't care about any of this, she'll be fine by tomorrow!"
Daddy, you don't know how much your words fill me with sorrow.
"Can't you just be civilized?! Stop acting like a child, and apologize right now!"
Mommy, please don't make this worse, or I'll run outside and hide in the snow.

Mommy, Daddy, I wish you would just stop everything and be happy again.
I'm

That One Friend"That One Friend"

You know that one friend
Who you cordially invite
Who eats all your food
And ruins the night?
That one friend you hate
But you can't resist
Because you're too nice
And so it persists.
You feel sorry
Because they're alone
And their sad excuse
Gets them in your home.
You know they're lying
But not to look rude
You keep them from crying
Not to ruin good moods

You know that one friend
Who slowly ruins your life?
They drag you down with them
Someone get a knife.
Because you want to cut ties
But just then they change
Or so they pretend to
Just so they stay.
Then you're stuck with them
But inside your head
You imagine them on fir

The Way We LiveThe Way We Live:

We all have our own little struggles;
Pushing on forward as the tragedies double.
A life led with pain and exhaustion too immense,
I'm pushing down walls as my muscles go tense.

But these are the words that you'll never hear me spit.
I'd never say I'm 'giving up' or if I should 'quit'.
I'm really freaking stupid so just tell it to my face,
And even then I'd never give up the right to race.

I'm like a lone arrow drawn and shot from a bow,
Blustered by the winds of all the things I don't know.
I'd never figure out if I'd reach the final mark,
But I know that I'd never lose my glowing inner spark.

And that's all it

Dream Eater"Dream Eater"

Why can't I awake this time?
I keep watching someone die every night
I can't even tell if I am alive
Have I finally lost what's left of my mind?

I can feel something envelop me
Breaking my skin; I'm letting it free
But looking at my reflection this time
The face looking back isn't mine!

I find its getting harder to relate
I keep watching someone make the same mistakes
I feel like any moment I will break
Watching scenes that seem so fake

Like a broken record spinning in circles
I can't seem to get over these hurdles
But the scenes I'm watching; I'm not to blame
This really is a sadistic game

I'm trapped in a nev

I Miss Youby =Shadowsoflosthope

Literature / Poetry / Emotional / Urban & Spoken Word

The awesome cover image was done by ~Erka-ruru . This piece both meant for a specific event and the anyone who's felt this way. The particular event i was thinking of was the Connecticut Shooting , and how unfair and unthinkable the events were. Instead of writing about that event, i instead wrote the feelings that come afterwords , the disbelief, the fear, the emptiness of knowing those people are never going to return and the fact it should have NEVER happened to them. I hope everyone enjoys

Hey, I wonder, have you ever lost someone dear to you?

=Shadowsoflosthope Dec 24, 2012

yeah thou i was a bit young. It was my great grandma, i used to sit beside her old chair everyday while we sat and watched jeopardy together. She had a heart attack one day when i was visiting and never came back. I don't remember much, just that i really liked her, and missed her after she was gone. Though i did not write this based on my personal experiences, i never do that, this is purely imagination.

~Bahar1 Dec 25, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Awww, I can imagine how you liked her

I love my grandma and will really miss her if she's gone before me. And missing is maybe the most important part of a person's feelings when he/she loses someone but I find your poem a little soft. If you lost someone very dear to you, like a daughter or a son, for real, the poem you would write would probably turn out to be much stronger, feelingwise, than this one. Just wanted to say it.
