Lying and resting under the wide and starry sky
I looked at the world and wanted to shout good bye
Depressed with my single defeat
For me only my heart was not neat
Negative thoughts creeped in my mind
Nut in a corner my courage was bind
My expectations were very high
But something was roaming in me like a spy
It caught where i was grey
And pehapsfor my defeat it used to pray
I learnt not to be over smart
It'll help to move the success' cart....


(i wrote this poem after losing a competition it was story telling comp. i was depressed coz it was the first time i was intrested and my teachers had not forced me... i was sad coz i was weaker than others and to tell the reality a felt betrayed... from my class teacher... she gave me the story which was recited before... there were no emotions in that... i felt myself weakest coz my best frnd won the first prize... after that i was depressed for nearly 6 months and after that i took part only in one competition...)

Read alone...
I believe whatever is in store for us will be for us. The poem is very true, unfortunately. Make sure you read it.

CASE 1: Kelly Sedey had one wish, for her boyfriend of three years, David Marsden, to propose to her. Then one day when she was out to lunch David proposed!
She accepted, but then had to leave because she had a meeting in 20 minutes. When she got to her office, she noticed on her computer she had some emails.
She checked it, the usual stuff from her friends, but then she saw one that she had never gotten before. It was this poem. She simply deleted it without even...

With long sobs
the violin-throbs
of autumn wound
my heart with languorous
and montonous
sound.

Choking and pale
When I mind the tale
the hours keep,
my memory strays
down other days
and I weep;

and I let me go
where ill winds blow
now here, now there,
harried and sped,
even as a dead
leaf, anywhere.

CHANSON D'AUTOMNE

Les sanglots longs
Des violons
De l'automne
Blessent mon cœur
D'une langueur
Monotone.

Tout suffocant
Et blême, quand
Sonne l'heure.
Je me souviens
Des jours anciens,
Et je pleure.

Et je m'en vais
Au vent mauvais
Qui m'emporte
De çà, de là,
Pareil à la
Feuille morte.

John Keats

(1795–1821)


Upon the sides of Latmos was outspread
A mighty forest; for the moist earth fed
So plenteously all weed-hidden roots
Into o’er-hanging boughs, and precious fruits.
And it had gloomy shades, sequestered deep,
Where no man went; and if from shepherd’s keep
A lamb strayed far a-down those inmost glens,
Never again saw he the happy pens
Whither his brethren, bleating with content,
Over the hills at every nightfall went.
Among the shepherds, ’twas believed ever,
That not one fleecy lamb which thus did sever
From the white flock, but pass’d unworried
By angry wolf, or pard with...

There once was a place where all was good

No poverty strife or fighting for food

A place call Utopia that lie on an isle

There once no war there, at least for a while

Then one day the land we loved so dear and true

Was overthrown by armies, first one then two

One from each country the armies did come

They admired Utopia, wanted to be shown how it was done

The Utopians showed them, as was their peaceful way

What they did on this isle from day to day

After much time spent the armymen found

It was much better here more safe, more sound

And so to Utopia there was to be flown

All the women and children, brought...

Your eyes,
cold as ice
look at me
full of despite.


I see that clearly
and that makes me sad.


Pure love
that I kept
inside my heart
now is trampled
by your insidious
lies.


Now it hurts.


I kept all those
sweet kisses
for you,
I burned in long nights
while you weren't near.
Where were you?
How could you?


You gave me lies
and now
you leave.
You torture my body,
but I cannot give.


Everything
has been taken away
from me,
my wild desires
are sleeping,
your hands
will never touch me.


But pain
burns inside,
I don't believe
who you are.
This tear
has betrayed me
and you feel
my pain
while I'm shaking.


You know,
but you don't speak,
you see,...

Examination of Conscience at Midnight

The clock striking midnight
Ironically invites us
To call to mind what use we made
Of the day that is fleeing:
— Today, a fateful date,
Friday the thirteenth we have
In spite of everything we know
Lived the life of a heretic;

We have blasphemed Jesus,
The one God one cannot deny!
Like a parasite at the table
Of some monstrous Croesus,
We have, to please the brute,
Worthy vassal of the Demons,
Hurled insults at that which we love
And flattered what repulses us.

Servile hangman, we have saddened
The weak man, wrongfully despised,
Saluted enormous Folly,
Folly with the brow...

He looked so happy as there lips parted I was full of rage,

He was not aware I was watching and I wish I wasn’t,

He cheated on me; pain filled my heart before it snapped,

My mind had one thing on its mind, Revenge,

I want him to feel the same pain that a feel at this moment,

I start running and didn’t stop till I got home then I called him,

He answered with a voice full of happiness,

This makes me cringe,

“Hello, Would you like to have dinner at 6:00 to night?”

He asks but his tone tells me that he dose not want to,

I don’t want to, he will just break my heart again

“Sure,” I whisper into...

Where
Do We Draw
The Line

On your palm an endless wonder
The lines that speak the truth without a sound
And in your eyes a waste of tireless hunger
Already looks for prey to run down

So why do we keep up this charade?
And how do we tell apart the time to leave from the time to wait?
What does tomorrow want from me?
What does it matter what I see?
If it can't be my design
Tell me where do we draw the line?
Tell me where do we draw the line?

The dance of flames and shadows in the street
Make poetry nobody's ever heard
The weight of loneliness stands on your feet
The cage already there around the bird

So why don't...

Young beautiful gypsy
Free and sweet
Never show negativity towards her
Or you'll have her curse
Falling in love with her is okay
Only if you never break her heart
Lovers have left her for dead
But now our little butterfly has returned again
Spreading sickness and foulness in the air
Only to give the other gypsies fear of her
No longer branded a gypsy
She is now branded as an evil sorceress
Abandoned by her only family
Anger grows within her
Her happiness and freedom now faded
Has left our little butterfly mean and jaded
No longer does she see beautiful colors
Her whole world is now all black
She still lives...

I couldn't sleep last night
I laid awake
and wished you were here
I wished that I had more time
to make more mistakes
to make them louder and clearer
I couldn't sleep last night
finding it quite inviting
I just couldn't sleep last night

not a light was on
as I held these words in mind
of you and ... what you do to me

I can follow the room
I close my eyes
it didn't move
if I was only stronger

I wish that I were stronger here
referring through my heart's poetry to you dear
cause I didn't sleep last night
not for a lack of trying
I just didn't sleep last night
by the light of day may my dreams be waking time

Sky so blue
Sky so black
You want me,
I’m never coming back,
You hit,
You cut,
I scream,
I cry,
No matter how bad,
You always lie.
I die,
You don’t cry,
You never did,
You never will.
Don’t cry,
When I die,
‘Cause every time it was a lie.
All I have to say is,
goodbye







its my turn to die,
i may hate you,
but i love you,
i'm a descrase,
i've had enough,
youre on your own,
forget about the one you left alone,
you lie to much,
forget about the one you loved.

the world once used to be calm
the world now is loud
the world is mad

once i loved
now i hate
dont know why

lions once slept with lambs
now they eat them all the time
this is not a lie

kids once were loved
now there hated
parents abusing

love once went on
then it stopped
people stopped loveing people

people once wanted to live
now they want to die
with a knife

actors once were kind
now most are mean
we all changed suddently

once people hugged with smiles
now they hurt with smiles on there ugly face
what has happend to all of us in this world




we all once lived happily till the world went loud

I want you to know
one thing.

You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.

If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.

If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,...

Scaired and alone,
sad and depressed,
this is what i know best,
Chilled to the bone,
Your heart cold as ice,
dust to dust,
you arent someone i trust,
Water so deep,
This pain will only end,
When I sleep.

When I smiled,
When I laughed,
It was because I thought of death.
When I cried,
When I screamed,
It was because my death was to slow.
When I smiled my final smile,
No one cried,
No one cared.
I grabbed a knife and a slip of paper,
I wrote my final words,
I sat in my room staring at the knife.
I heard a laugh,
I heard a cry,
Turned to see my family right by my side.
I ran away,
I’m scare to death,
I grab my knife but...

fatal velocity, comes on with a rush
overpowering, gives the final push

what never moves, is never still
who has the final word
it holds the world in a single pill
and all life rendered absurd

if you …
kill sweet desire, faith may numb the trial
but can you run all your life?
kill sweet desire, truth will make a liar
you can run but not hide!
so run for your life

a false sincerity, a liar and a thief
my pulse and memory, a comfort within grief
what never moves, is never still, who has the final word
it holds the world in a single pill, and all life rendered absurd

if you …
kill sweet desire, faith...
