I've received a handful of user-submitted works of poetry and song-writing. I was surprised at the number I got, for I thought that it would be much smaller than this (small as it is still, however). I'll post newer poems closer to the top of the page, and they'll move down as new entries come in. For now the poems/songs will all be on this page, but as I get more and more, I will divide them up.
Lonesome Tree
By: Mark ??? A lonesome tree, standing alone surrounded by the dead. Hardly paid attention to. Quiet and desolate. No one cares how the lonely feel, or what they will turn out as. Quiet and stern. The tree loses its colorful leaves. And has soon entred the empty world along with the others.Not Someone You've Seen
By: CynicalKitten I've fallen into love just once, my heart I gave to him. I'd given all I had inside, I thought I'd finally win. But with an evil lie to me he stole away my trust, he dragged along my heart behind, while all I had was lust. Now I'm scared forever more and pain is all I see, I want someone to pull me out and finally set me free. All I know is hate inside and how to hurt my friends, to take a slash at who they are and leave there heart to mend. When your left out in the cold and left out all alone, you grow to just get use to pain, your hearts turned into stone. So if you understand these words and just what it might mean, You'll see that I'm not all that I am, I'm not someone you've seen.Mask
By: CynicalKitten Just behind this mask I hide The inner me locked deep inside I've hidden all I could have been Upon the hate that dwell's within The echo's of the screams I hear I know I live with only fear Some how they will finally see The hidden thoughts, the inner me.Forever
By: Cynical Kitten Some may live in fear of caring for feelings left unknown. They never see what's been held inside, emotions never shown But somewhere held inside my heart you stole away the fear You pointed to the inner me and wiped away my tears I know that we are far apart but somehow close together I'll hold you in my arm's someday hopefully forever.Voices
By: Alex ??? Listen to the voices whispering into my ear Can you hear the voices around you Always telling you want to do And what to say I'll do it again for you I'll say it again for ya (ah ya) Nothins ever the same Nothing will ever change I'll do it for you I'll never leave again Hear your voices telling you to do it again I dont ever want to change my ways For you (chorus) I don't hear a thing I only have an ear for you To hear what you say to me Every night What's around me I can't see a thing All I hear is you Hear the voices coming after you I cant get away I cant stay here All I hear is the voices day to day Hear my voices whispering into my ear Got to get them away from here Can you hear the voices around you Always telling you want to do And what to say I'll do it again for you always Whisper to me tell me it's ok I have to stay for another day Why is it smothering me It's hard to find my self Hearing my voice's again day to day Hear the silence break Got to get away From my evil self Kill my evil side And go with whats best for me (chorus) I dont hear a thing I only have an ear for you To hear what you say to me Every night What's around me I cant see a thing All I hear is you Hear the voices coming after you I cant get away I cant stay here All I hear is the voices day to day Got to get out get away Lay it off of me Doin the same to me againFalling Away
By Jessica ??? F*CK THIS WORLD, I CANNOT PRETEND. ALL MY HAPPINESS HAS COME TO AN END. LEAVE ME ALONE IN MY MISERY. LOVE ISN'T SOMETHING YOU CAN GIVE TO ME. I CAN'T SHUT OUT THE VOICES IN MY HEAD. NOW ITS TO LATE IM AS GOOD AS DEAD. GOTTA FALL AWAY. AS SOON AS I CAN. ALL PAIN, NO FUN. WE'RE ALL SCREWED WHATS DONE IS DONE. ALL OF YOU TRY TO SAVE ME, BEG ME TO STAY. YET I CAN'T,SO I CLOSE MY EYES AND FALL AWAY.The Darkness
By: Heather Payne It is above me, It is below me, It surrounds me. I wait for it to come, hoping, praying it will pass me by. I cannot run, I cannot hide, For it is all around. I try to run, try to hide.... But it is stronger than IAn Email Of Appreciation
From: Ben ??? This isn't a poem, but rather a letter to Justin. I just finished reading all your poems, and I have to say something. I'll probably sound gay by saying this, but that's a risk I have to take: Your poems are the most beautiful thing i have ever read in my life! they are so emotional, they almost made me cry. that is, until i read "The End". i was so totally moved by that poem/song, i began to cry uncontrollably! i believe that poem was so powerful, i could feel exactly what you felt when you were writing it. i am a Christian, though i have strayed very far away from God. just by reading your lyrics, i have been brought back to Him. thank you so much! if for some strange reason you would want to e-mail me, my address is ***** God Bless You! I can't wait to see you in Heaven! ���Originally, this was addressed mistakenly to Sean, but for reading convience I changed it to the corrected name, which he emailed a second time changing.
That is it for now, but everyone is encouraged to submit their poems and songs to the site for posting (or not posting if you wish). I welcome all submititions and thank everyone that has helped contribute.
