Poem

[Deleted]

Oh loneliness of lonely days.
I have no friends, i'm just a stray.
I say I have no friends, it's just what I say.
Yet, I have many ready friends all ready today.
Dont worry, Im not going, friends, because i'm here forever to stay

[Deleted]

Deep in Earth, my love is lying
And I must weep alone

[Deleted]

Why so sad?
Is it cuz of all that's happened?
After your friend was listed as dead?
When you were cast out as nothing?
Or was it when you died?
I know you're dead inside,
Oh, how much you cried.
I know the truth,
how you're really dead,
even though I know you said,
"I'll be around forever"

Just some words

[Deleted]

Oh radiant heaven, wont you open your arms to me?
I grow weary, your promise so sweet says it will take me upwards to an abyss of bliss,
Oh horrific hell, would you stop grasping at my feet?
I fear excitement, your force so logical says it has a bliss in your abyss.

I'm caught in limbo on the grey earth of neither the morbid black nor the pure white,
Indecision threatens to tear me apart,
Into the eternity I have planned for myself.
But this isn't truth.

They say that those in heaven are doomed to permanent happiness,
an ultimate reward so pure that I believe it may blind one in white.
They say that those in hell are blessed with permanent hell,
An ultimate punishment so visceral that nothing above or underside the world is left unrevealed to them.

But this isn't the question, Heaven or Hell.
They are merely constructs as I perceive them.
And I am far, ever so far away from beginning eternity.
Truth is, I am but a vessel for both.

What I perceive as Heaven and Hell are merely others constructs, created according to their rules,
A rule that dictates one or the other.
The eternity of greed from all around rushes back to greet me,
And they join with me, every concept swimming in the waters of my soul.

But I have made them my own, an unfaithful abomination,
As a Frankenstein I create a monster which abides to my bidding,
It blinds me with the eye-opening truth of a radiant horror,
And I continue building.

Building.
Building.
Building.
Building...
Building...
Building...

And my own eternity is eventually enslaved...

Love you say?
Ha! I know that's a lie!
You know how I loved her,
You know how I loved you;
You were my friend, my brother

Yet, you've made your move
I thought I could trust you
With my secrets and that letter,
But you stole my words from me

You've stolen everything from me!
You take my friends,
You took my love,
And you've even taken my life.

Now I'm back and I'm here for you,
Now I see you, peekaboo
You made me shed blood
I never wanted to hurt her,
But she was too far enthralled.

This is about a bright young man you trusted the wrong friend to deliver a letter confesding his love to a girl, but the friend erased his name and said he wrote it. He then began to turn friends against the young man and eventually killed him, yet his want for vengeance was so powerful, he came back and killed the girl to be with her in the afterlife

There are people out there, who would say there's nothing more important than love. But is love really that great?
There are women, who because of love, get chased around by men.
And there are men, that because of love, get killed by women.
To boil it down, for love to be so great, there's gotta be something else behind it that's even greater.
But I'm not gonna tell you what that is. It's not my style.

Well... It's not a poem. But it's a quote/speech I like a lot from the Devil May Cry anime that came to mind after reading that last poem. But anyway, I've enjoyed reading your poems since you started writing them again, Riku. And I also liked your poem, Al. But, whether or not the question is Heaven or Hell... Let's rock!

Glad you liked it. And Riku, you know an entire novel could be based around that concept. I want to read it, unless something similar already exists.

We are alive, but for what?
Do we live only to die?
Do we live only to suffer?
Why are we here?
Are we here to conquer?
Or maybe to cultivate?
Maybe that is our fate;
To live and then to die.
Maybe that means we should try:
Try to make the most of our lives
Before everyone withers and dies.
Try to be filled with joy
Before we find the inner sad little boy
Try to be make lots of friends
Before they all meet their ends
Maybe we aren't here for any reason
Maybe thinking that is treason
Maybe we just need to focus on the now
Instead of standing in the crowd,
Thinking of the whys
When all we know are lies
Let's all just stay friends
Before we fail to make amends

Tried to make this somewhat meaningful and inciteful

[Deleted]

Sadness, depression, discouragement
Thes have become a part of me daily life
Why do I feel like this always?
Maybe I'm just a failure
Maybe my time is over
Have a fallen?
I have truly lost myself
To these thoughts that fill my mind
These thoughts of failure; this self doubt
It doesn't stop, and I doubt it will

[Rikuseroth]

End of the Day

The day ends with the death of the sun
This time ends all of our fun
Yet, when will the time come?
When all will be reset to one?

I don't remember if I posted that already


Poem for the one I love

My joys are few,
My sorrows are many ,
Nevertheless, I greatly love you.

Though we may be apart,
And I know it's been hard,
I wish to give you my beating heart.

I miss you when you're away,
Although I think about you far too much,
I'd like it if you could be here to stay.

I know you must go,
But, I'd like to tell you one thing.
I've got more love for you than I've ever shown

[Rikuseroth]

Here is where I was born.
Here is where I will die.
Here is where I have sworn,
To never ever lie.

Here is where we were bought.
Here is where we escaped.
Here is where we were shot.
Here was our cruel inevitable fate.

[Rikuseroth]

Her light tears flow down
As she looks in the coffin
Down at her body.

I look into her eyes,
Hold her in my arms,
Give her one last kiss,
As my consciousness fades to death.

Two separate poems

[Rikuseroth]

In days I'm sad,
In days I'm happy,
I later end feeling bad.
My supporters,
My friends,
They've all done enough
I thank you all
For your friendship and help
You've done enough,
Now it's my turn to help you.


My friends always seem to help me with stuff, and I feel kinda bad about it, and I need to repay them

[Rikuseroth]

Outsider
The laughter rises
It quickly envelopes me
And I'm left out.

[Rikuseroth]

My poem for a poetry contest.

I Only Have to Ask

I just want to ask
For your hand in mine,
To be able to bask
In your shining gleam,
To hold you tight.
We'd soar up high,
High as a kite
Without much fright.
I don't want just a fling.
I want for us to last,
For us to be a thing.
Now, I just have to ask.

It's technically about that girl I like. It's probable she'd say yes, but that's exactly it. I just have to ask.
