Hide in your shell, because the world is out to bleed you for a ride
What will you gain making your life a little longer?
Heaven or hell, was the journey cold that gave your eyes of steel?
Shelter behind, painting your mind and playing joker
Too frightening to listen to a stranger, too beautiful to put your pride in danger
You’re waiting for someone to understand you
But you’ve got demons in your closet and you’re screaming out to stop it
Saying life’s begun to cheat you, friends are out to beat you, grab on to what you scramble for
Don’t let the tears linger on inside now, cause it’s sure time you gained control
If I can help you, if I can help you, If I can help you, just let me know
Well, let me show you the nearest signpost, to get your heart back on the road
If I can help you, if I can help you, if I can help you, just let me know
All through the night as you lie awake and hold yourself so tight
What do you need, a second-hand-movie-star to tend you?
I, as a boy, I believed the saying the cure for pain was love
How would it be if you could see the world through my eyes?
Too frightening - the fires are getting colder,
Too beautiful - to think you’re getting older
You’re looking for someone to give an answer
But what you see is just illusion, you’re surrounded by confusion
Saying life has begun to cheat you, friends are out to beat you
Grab on to what you can scramble for, don’t let the tears linger on inside now
Cause it’s sure time you gained control!
If I can help you, if I can help you, if I can help you, just let me know
Well, let me show you the nearest signpost, to get your heart back on the road
If I can help you, if I can help you, if I can help you, just let me know
Cause you know I wanna know you! I wanna know you! Well let me know you!
Please let me know you, please let me know you
I wanna feel you, I wanna touch you, please let me near you
Can you hear what I’m saying?
Well I’m hoping, I’m dreaming, I’m praying,
I know what you’re thinking, see what you’re seeing, never ever let yourself go
Hold yourself down, hold yourself down, why do you hold yourself down ?
Why don’t you listen, you can trust me,
There’s a place I know the way to a place
There is need to feel you, feel that you’re alone
Can you hear me, I know exactly what you’re feeling
Cause all your troubles are within you
So begin to see that I’m just bleeding too
Love me, love you, loving is the way to help me, help you
Why must we be so cool, oh so cool?
Oh, we’re such damn fools...

What is more gentle than a wind in summer?
What is more soothing than the pretty hummer?
That stays one moment in an open flower,
And buzzes cheerily from bower to bower?
What is more tranquil than a musk-rose blowing
In a green island, far from all men’s knowing?
More healthful than leafiness of dales?
More secret than a nest of nightingales?
More serene than Cordelia's countenance?
More full of visions than a high romance?
What, but thee, Sleep? Soft closer of our eyes!
Low murmurer of tender lullabies!
Light hoverer around our happy pillows!
Wreather of poppy buds, and weeping willows!
Silent entangler of a beauty's tresses !
Most happy listener! When the morning blesses
Thee for enlivening all the cheerful eyes
That glance so brightly at the new sunrise.
Elusive dreams
This pre-life crisis, is killing me
A beautiful tragedy
Who I was wasn't me
You make it easier to be
Easier to be me
It's hard to believe
You make it easy
Speaking silence
Words can break
It feels like we are falling awake
In a place, in a time of our own
You make it easier to be
Easier to be me
It's hard to believe
It felt like the world
Fell from my feet
Gave up on myself
You didn't give up on me
Let myself go
You were still there
Like coming home
Coming up for air
You make it easier to be
Easier to be me
It's hard to believe
You make it easy
Easier to be
To be me

Times.
There are times when you feel lonely.
Times when you can't talk to your best friend, because she won't take it seriously.
Times when you can't talk to your mum,
because your scared she'll bring it up again.
Times when the people who would usally distract you only make you feel worce without knowing it.
Times when the one person you can talk to is ast asleep at 00:45.
These are the times when you just cry.
(Please forgive any spelling or grammer mistakes.)
First thought.
The first time I saw you,
was only a glance.
I was a fool, you know,
taking a chance.
Thoughts of you and me
Filled my dreams,
only to be ripped
at the seams.
So I'll lay here,
My haert in tatters.
In hope that one day
You might see
Me.

March Madness
By
Jeremy Gould
31 Days will come and go
Through each I'll remember
a past life
of everlasting strife
Each day I'll dismember
a little bit more of my soul
4 Weeks, one lasting memory
will arrive to do its worst
to tie me down
I'll lose more ground
my heart will nearly burst
my mind will agree
1 month will rear its ugly head
I'll return to solitary confinement
a prisoner in hell
it's just as well
'cause if I would break my last commandment
then I'd be better off dead
We're down to the final 4
the grief, the pain, the mourning, the sadness
which shall win this brutal war?

Welcome to my March Madness
have
fears
when i have fears that i may cease to be
before my pen has glean’d my teeming brain,
before high piled books, in charact’ry,
hold like rich garners the full-riper’d grain;
when i behold, upon the night’s starr’d face,
huge cloudy symbols of a high romance,
and think that i may never live to trace their shadows,
with the magic hand of chance;
and when i feel, fair creature of an hour!
that i shall never look upon thee more,
never have relish in the faery
power of unreflecting love
then on the shore of
the wide world i stand alone,
and think till love and fame to nothingness do sink.
"posthumous and fugitive poems"
john keats [1795-1821]
when darkness is no less than everything
you've built become undone
there's no fight and no flight
disaster leaves your passion overrun
it's time to let go
it's time to carry on with the show
don't mourn what is gone
greet the dawn
and i will be standing by your side
together we'll face the turning tide
remembrance can be a sentence
but it comes to you with
a second chance in tow
don't lose it, don't refuse it,
cause you cannot learn a thing
you think you know
a new light is warm
shining down on you after the storm
don't mourn what is gone, greet the dawn
and i will be standing by your side
together we'll face the turning tide
we grow old with time
yet young with years
never to give up to fears
but we are never fine
yet we always sing
we live on this earth for all our lives
always experiencing something new
like emotion or sights
there is never peace always pain
and life goes on with time
as we grow so do our souls
without life the would be no time
and without time we would mot have pain
and without pain there is no soul
and with no soul there is no life
"i still live i still think i still have to lice for i still have to think.... Fredrick Nietzsche" he also said " he who has a why to live can bare almost any how"

The Amulet
by
Jeremy Gould
The bands of gold remind me
of the way you held my hand
so tightly
so comfortably
like you never would let go
Nobody ever wants to let go
including me
Perhaps it's just we don't know how
The design is striking
just like you were
with every breath
with every movement
I could watch you for hours
and never be tired
of seeing you
of being near you
The cold chill that comes
and tickles my neck
every time I put on
that lovely amulet
takes me back to you
The only place I want to be
The only person I care to see
Missing you here with me

here is a poem... my therapist wants me to find ways to talk about my feelings....
i have felt sad before,
but this is so much stronger.
i feel like i am drowning,
deeper and deeper in to the black cold water.
i can not scream,
i can not swim to the surface.
i am to lost,
the sadness has consumed me,
as i slowly fade away.
the monster is consuming me,
where has the real me gone?
is she lost?
or did the moster take her over,
and leave me for dead.
no one understands the monster,
no one but those who live consumed by it.
deeply consumed like me.

this is a lyric (a type of poem) that i wrote as an assignment for language arts class and i chose to write one about my grandpa who has passed away because he was very sick, anyways tell me what u think. btw i got an A for this one :]
sadness is knowing i will never hear my grandpa's voice again
it feels like he left this world all too soon
sadness is watching a movie that we both loved
it reminds me of all the happy times we used to spend together
like the days when you would pull me in my wagon
sadness waits for me after i do the things we used to do
sadness is the endless tears flowing down my face
it brings me to tears when i remember all our wonderful times
those are my sad, sweet memories of you

it feels like he left this world all too soon

IN
YOUR
HOUSE

GOULD
That first day you let me in
I knew I'd always want to stay
I've never felt more welcome
That safety will never go away
I found peace in your house
Everything seemed so clear
Possibilities on every wall
I wanted to stay there forever
I could've always answered your call
I saw my future in your house
But in a flash you were gone
I lost my future wife
But I gained something new
A hard lesson in life
I left my heart in your house

I left my heart in your house
The pain I can control
The pain that makes me whole
The pain that stops and brings some tears
The pain that erases all my fears
The pain that I inflict with this knife
The pain that might be last in my life
The pain that brought me to my knees
The pain that woahed me full of pleas
The pain that made me see the light
The pain that is bringing me home tonight
The pain that is wrong and bitter
The pain that makes me feel fitter
The pain that my friends say is wrong
The pain that makes me feel so strong
The pain that makes my friend sad, and cry
The pain that makes her want to die
The pain thats not just pain to me
The pain that makes everyone see
The pain that thats tearing me apart
The pain thats ripping apart my heart
The pain that I'm addicted to
The pain I can't give up. Not even for you...
