Hi y'all. Brainy Bitch here, yet again. :) Psycho and I have been working really hard on this site of ours, and we've both been thinking about what else we could add to it. We wanted to put our own personal touches on it (like we haven't so far, right?), and since we're both writers, we decided that we'd both make another page and post some of our own poetry on it.
Keep in mind, please, that my poems are personal, and for the most part, I always have a reason to write what I do. I ask y'all politely to NOT copy my poems, because they are, indeed mine, and I'd like to keep them that way. Besides that, I'm sure y'all don't want to have to worry about a lawsuit, should I find that my poems ARE being copied. :) I asked you politely, and I warn you now...just don't do it, because you don't want to mess with me. I hope that Psycho and I have made a good decision, and I hope y'all are enjoying the additions and improvements that we've been making! Enjoy, and feel free to give us any comments, feedback, suggestions, whatever...at [email protected].... Email us! Give us something to go off of! :)
Luv y'all, *kisses and hugs all around* ~*~Brainy Bitch~*~
A song without meaning
Life without dreams
Living without hope.
The part that's necessary
To make the whole
Unnoticed,
But missed when it's gone.
Day without night
Happiness without tears
A day without a smile,
A life without love.
Secret desires for things to change
Deep-rooted insecurities
Fear of loneliness
All haunt my aching heart
Shadows grow at every turn
Eating all color, everything alive
Eyes see only a cloak of grey.
All is dead, all is gone.
Glimmers of hope disappear
Gone in seconds, in a wisp of smoke
A rose that blooms soon withers away
A thorny bramble is its memory.
Soon the sun shines again
Color returns to the world
The shadows recede, life begins anew
The rose blooms once again.
Everything that once was now isn't
Life of the past is just that
The past
Get those things that make you who you are
The bare necessities
The only remembrance of who you were
The bare canvas for who you'll be
Look into the mirror,
You are who you are, yet you're not;
You're always changing
Such a true fallacy,
The ultimate irony
Break the mirror, curse its name
You've no need of its corrupt vision
Walk away, you know yourself
Long for the past, dream of the future-
Nothing will ever be as it seems-
Live for the now
Only you can mark on your slate.
Things I long to know
Words I strive to hear
Vanish without a trace
A wisp of forgotten smoke
Expelled on a lazy summer's day
A fleeting desire
Gone in a change of mood
The hazy fog lifts from weeping eyes
Sun begins to shine,
Clear and true,
They'll live to see another day.
Broken hearts mend
Feelings die away
The fantasy diminishes
Reality brings the truth
Am I deprived of the world,
Or is it the other way around?
I miss out on cruelty,
They don't see me
Stay shaded behind my curtain
The stage isn't for me
I can't put on a show
A trained monkey in costume
Allow me to live my life
Don't trap me with haunted melodies
I'll live by my own tune
Follow my own rules
Maybe the world is missing out on me
Maybe it sees who it's missing
I won't ever fail myself,
Or cast myself aside;
Maybe I have the better end of the bargain
A whisper into the wind
Secret thoughts manifested
Lost in the atmosphere
Just a simple breath
A scream inside can be well-hid
Hear no more than a sigh
No troubles, no worries
No emotions to be felt
Somehow no difference is seen
Pay no attention to the sigh
It is no more than a mask
Worn to shield and protect
To guard the soul from prodding
Defense mechanism
No more, no less
When a sigh is heard, don't ask why
Love as if that sigh were yours
Shield as you would want
Breathe in someone's sigh
Breathe out comfort for their pain
Come across the dusty box in the attic
Hidden behind the cobwebs
Locking away the memories, tucked away
Open the box, swat away the dust
Pore over pictures, emotions once felt
Now felt again
Feel the sting, close my eyes
Block the wave of tears
Think about old times, good times,
Smile, and then remember the pain
Wounds that never fully heal
Turn my back on the box,
Leave it to gather more dust;
Walk away for good.
