Hi there fellow poetry enthousiasts.

Here is a Poem I have written not to long ago.

Please tell me thoughts on it, especially on what part I could improve somewhat.

Thanks beforehand, and enjoy reading.




Olympus has Fallen.



As the titans forged the world.
A nova of light, hurled.
Like a hammer on anvil striking
Sea and Sand, dividing.

Onward the first dawn of light,
A terrace arose to godly height.
Mount olympus this day, born.
The gods to Titans in loyalty, sworn.

Also to the world introduced.
Flora and Fauna, which the gods amused.
One race destined to evolve.
To send prayers, to gods below and...

Hurry up my love
Because the memories weigh heavily on me
If only the memories and the silence
Didn't confuse us
Hurry up because the time flies by
It threatens us with its cruel routine
And it wants to take with it
The happiest moments of our lives
For the two of us
For what we have always felt
For everything we have lived
Hurry up love
Because the minutes aren't coming back
Because I don't want to lose you
Because I am living with illusions
Because I am dreaming of loving you today
Because the days go by
And another oppurtunity is difficult
To be like this, to love again
Stay with me
Come hurry up, I beg you...

I was cryin' just to get you Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
I was cryin' just to get you Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
What would you do,
if the love of your life died,
what would you do if they died a terrible death,
would you get revenge,
would you hate everyone,
would you become a murderer in return,
would you cry your life away,
or would you take your life away?

What would you do,
if your best friend committed suicide,
what would you do if they died terribly,
would you laugh because no tears will come,
would you cry until it is all over,
would you do the same,
would you run away,
or would you just throw it all away?

What would you do,
if you were hit by a car,
what would you do if you were dying,
would you feel sorry for yourself,
would you cry until the end,
would you remember everything you have ever done,
would you call your mom,
or would you hate the person until your life has gone away?

What would you do,
when everything ends for you or a friend?

What would you do?
I was cryin' when I met you Now I'm tryin' to forget you
I was cryin' when I met you Now I'm tryin' to forget you

Cover your face,
the others won't see your tears;
Cover your eyes,
that's what you've been doing
for a very long time.

Why are we sad,
why are we disappointed?

We spend hours and days
in a shelter that
our mind created.

We believe that's the safe place.
The place where we can buy
some peace for our soul,
place where we collect all
those lies and shame,
that keep itching us.

Have we ever truly tried
to understand?
Haven't we asked "why" for
too many times?
Have we ever seen the things
in the way they really are
not in the way they seem for us?

Blinded eyes mean
a broken heart.
Sadness is a part of
disappointment....

Here is another poem. It is a bit dark but the truth is always darker than it seems.

Isolated,
I am isolated,
I isolate myself from the people who might care about me...

Watching,
They watch me but are blind,
Blind to the emotions that are always rinning through my mind while they just stare...

Broken,
My heart is broken,
The cracks run deep and I know will never be filled...

Unseen,
I feel unseen,
Unseen by the ones who walk the halls and just look right through me...

Tears,
They never want to stop,
The tears stream down my face until the burn my cheeks...

Darkness,
I am lost in a sea of black,
The waves crash around me and threaten to swallow me forever

There are times when our loss makes us to feel happy
When in a problem one small support makes us to feel lucky
Times when we are crying one word makes us to laugh
Even if heart is all ours they live in half
Making fun even if we don’t like is their habit
On our single smile in sadness they jump and run like rabbit
Don’t recall the past, don’t worry about future
They teach us like experienced tutor
They are my dearest friends
Who live with me with love that never ends
No end, everyday is a new start
There is no way we can be apart

Dedicated to a friend of mine, may he and his family and everyone who knew him know that he now is with God
____________________________________________________

Only knew you for a few years
Cause of Dad's new job
You always were my favorite
One of them to talk to
You always smiled
And never thought a bad thing
Even when your son was messing up
You just laughed and helped him
And always forgave

No one knew you would leave us
On that cold winter day
Now i cant rember your name without crying

We never were close
Yet we had so much in common
No one needed to know us
You and I were fine

I knew it wasnt a cold
It was always something more
You ignored it all
And went on with your life
I wanted to say something
And i never said goodbye

I wish i could of said goodbye
For you are here
No more

In memory of a friend who didnt deserve to die, we all miss you and you will never be forgotten

Tears push against my eyes
why can't they come out
frustration and anger filled my eyes
why can't things be easy
Things are filled with pain
why can they be easier
why do they have to be this hard
why does being a friend mean choosing
since when do you have to choose which friend you keep
since when
Why can't you stay fr4iends with everyone
why does this so called life we live
takes everything out of us
so we cannot live
is there somethign out there that wants failure that wants death
because it is drawing me in
i need that death
I need that
i can't even speak
why does friendship kill
WHY?...

At midnight, in the month of June,
I stand beneath the mystic moon.
An opiate vapor, dewy, dim,
Exhales from out her golden rim,
And, softly dripping, drop by drop,
Upon the quiet mountain top,
Steals drowsily and musically
Into the universal valley.
The rosemary nods upon the grave;
The lily lolls upon the wave;
Wrapping the fog about its breast,
The ruin molders into rest;
Looking like Lethe, see! the lake
A conscious slumber seems to take,
And would not, for the world, awake.
All Beauty sleeps!- and lo! where lies
Irene, with her Destinies!

O, lady bright! can it be right-
This window open...

When I talk to my friends I pretend I am standing on the wings

of a flying plane. I cannot be trusted to tell them how I am.
Or if I am falling to earth weighing less

than a dozen roses. Sometimes I dream they have broken up

with their lovers and are carrying food to my house.
When I open the mailbox I hear their voices

like the long upward-winding curve of a train whistle

passing through the tall grasses and ferns
after the train has passed. I never get ahead of their shadows.

I embrace them in front of moving cars. I keep them away

from my miseries because to say I am miserable is to say I am like them.

—Jason Shinder
I am mysterious yet sweet
I wonder what the future brings
I hear wolves singing to the moon
I see diamonds swimming in a black sea above me as I lay in the grass.
I want people to understand me completely

I am random yet shy
I pretend I am always going on new adventures
I feel misunderstood
I touch shards of my past, remembering them
I worry that I won't find someone who can view things the way I do

I am courageous yet cunning
I cry because the blames fall on me
I understand people's problems
I say witty things that persuade people
I dream of an absolution & life of adventure
I try to fit in but it's just so boring
I hope to travel around the world making more friends along the way.

I am all that I am, I am all of me

The Cure



Good and evil
Love and hate

The balances of life
Makes everything flow just right
Until misery takes control of your world...

Misery is a parasite
Feeds off other's to become stronger
It hunts for those who are happy
Only to bite and infect them
With it's disease

It penetrates deep into your mind
Death and despair flood the thoughts
The virus spreads further...to your soul

You are sick with misery
Contagious
You don't want to infect
Forced into isolation
A weak body and a weak mind
There is no cure for you to find

Until the day comes when an antidote called Love
Finds it's way inside
And kills the virus

But cures are hard to find
Like any love is...

my heart beats clear and frees me
to see, feel, hear, touch and taste
your eyes, your lips, your hands
you are everywhere

a touch, soft and tender
a whisper, full of desire
a gasp of sweet surrender
as passion fuels the fire

and though we still have far to go
that's alright, we'll take it slow
and though the days are often long
with you here I can be strong

there's no time in life to judge
only time enough for love
so as another night slips by
let’s dance beneath the sky

in our secret garden
love took power over our will
progressively, gently, tenderly, lover to lover

love, you’re all I ever needed
and I want you now. now being forever.

this is my eternal vow.

i walk up and stand
listening to the soft sobs around me
some are my own
i see you there helpless and white
there is sadness and pain in your eyes
i wonder if its from the ropes around your arms
or if its for what is to come
as they come up they bring your demise
the blade comes down i turn and run
when i hear you scream i stop
my poor dark lovely angle

soft breezes of comfort
spiral around me and lift my hair
i begin to stumble blindly down the path
picking up a dark feather that has fallen at my feet, imell the harsh sent of death and blood
it mixes with the soil of the earth
i feel water as i taste salt...
