Being Smart

Does it make me a nerd?
that I find it fun
to spend days on a problem
that cannot be done
maybe I am, so what if I am?
Maybe I like the fact that I am
You'll never meet a dumb entrepreneur
And you'll never be president if you can't be mature
So do the right thing
don't slack in school
and then you'll find out,
being smart is what's cool

Them

They feel no need of emotion,
For yours is all they need.
They take their time in motion,
Though they feed off of great speed.

They don't care much for Treasure,
Though they rob the earth of it's gold.
They're intelligence cannot be measured,
But they're minds continue to mold.

They dare not walk in day,
Though they have great fears of night.
For their past, makes them this way.
Hidden, in their own fright.

They are standing all around you.
Though, you can't see.
They're trying to get inside you.
So it'd be best to let them be.

Miss You

I never realized
How much I miss you when you're gone.
I never realized
How much fun I have when I'm with you.
I never realized
How much I lost when our parents fought.
I never realized
How much of me I got from you.
I never realized
How much it hurts to say good-bye to you
My friend, my brother, my idol, my cousin.

And now comes that time,
The time of farewells.
I look back and I remember you.
I look forward and you're there.
So I will get on that plane, or train,
Without a fear because I know you'll be there.

Three Little Words
Love
By: Brittany Taylor

Never expected this,
Never expected him to say
three little words,
three little words, that mean
so much to me
about how much we care
about the way we smile
at each other
about the way we laugh
with one another
about the day
we will meet.
Its soo exciting
day after day
week after week
all this anticipation
is making me soo excited
hyper,scared, anxious
I don't know how to react.
Once he gets here
I will be excited
Hes gonna be the first kiss
hes going to be the only one
I care about enough to say
those three little words
and I wont be ashamed to say it.
Those three little words are part
of our future
I can't see me loving anyone else.
Hes just soo amazing in so many ways.
I LOVE HIM SOO MUCH!

A Heavenly Feeling

There’s a feeling,
Deep within my soul,
A feeling I can’t explain,
Never quite understanding what it is,
But I love this feeling,
A feeling that envelops me.

I thought my heart stopped,
Stopped loving any soul,
Thought it was numb to feeling,
But I was wrong,
I’m deep in a feeling,
A feeling of deep love.

Life seemed to forget me,
Pushing me to the side,
Never giving me a chance,
Always being ignorant of me,
But I guess I was wrong,
I just had to open my eyes.

Nothing was going my way,
Everything was against me,
My luck has changed,
For the better I believe,
I’ll be at peace with life,
One day I will be where I belong,
I will be with her,
With the one I belong with.

Love is in my heart,
Completely taking me over,
Making me whole,
Life has taken a turn,
A turn for the best,
A turn that was needed,
An overdue turn.

Freedom from hatred,
Grateful of this angel,
The passionate love within,
Starts to flow through my veins,
The love uncovered from a tomb,
And I’m free from the past.

I have more to live for,
A love bursts out,
Like as if it was building up,
Growing throughout time,
Breaking down the walls I put up,
The walls that kept me,
The walls that barred me from love,
Only hatred seemed allowed,
But love has freed me.

13,000,000,000 Years

The suit is used to cover up the marks
There are bruises where there were once bites
And I hope that the sands of time erode them away
Back to where they came from

To a place where there's no more of this
And no more of that
And for the next thirteen billion years there's...
Nothing at all left

And for the next 96 seconds nothing will happen
Until the planets crash in on each other
And all is how it's meant to be in the universe

And when there are only 36 seconds left I will
Look at the marks that were left for me
And a smile will cross my face
As I look forward to the rest of my life

And the first thirteen billion years are the hardest
Thirteen billion years of time and nothing
All of it will come to a standstill when I notice it all
Or nothing at all will happen on it's own

Everything I've done won't matter
And I won't know if the end is coming or not
I will not even have enough time to...
Take off the suit covering the marks

The marks that lead back to
Thirteen billion years

Reflections

she's dreaming with her reflection,
of days that have yet to come
she's wishing with her reflection,
of days that will never be.
she's gazing with her reflection,
of days that have passed.

she looks at her reflection,
and sees someone she hates.
she looks at her reflection,
and sees someone she wants to change.
she glares at her reflection,
and sees all the flaws.

when she looks at her reflection,
she feels shame.
when she watches her reflection,
she feels disappointment.
when she sees her reflection,
she feels sorrow.

Her reflection stares back at her,
and shares her memories.
Her reflection looks back at her,
and remembers the pain.
Her reflection gazes back at her,
and knows what she tries hides.

Thing's Aren't What They Appear

I’ve known him since I could remember
We’ve been neighbors since I was three
We grew up together
And were as close as two friends could be

We swung on swings together
We hung out together
We even would find dates for each other
Anyone would say we were “birds of a feather”

Then we decided to go out with each other
Just to test it out you know?
If anything went wrong we’d fix it up
We’d still be friends…STOP! NO!

Somehow he wasn’t who I thought he was anymore
You see, everything was perfect, at first
“things are not what they appear” I promise you
I swear he was gonna burst!

I need your body damn it!
I need to touch you, to need to here you scream in fear of me!
I need to chain you and take you, scream damn it! Scream!
Don’t you see? This is how we’re meant to be!

I was chained and stripped with a knife of dignity
With blood streaking my body, my flower was crushed
My screams I couldn't’t suppress, because he…laughed
After he was done with his fun, I was slapped so hard I was hushed

{This Poem Has No Tittle}

The world is a horrible place
Full of people who are full of shit
Filling you with lies of the mouth
Delivering stabs to the heart
Incurable wounds
Acid dripped in my veins
All from so many lies
Found not to trust any
So lucky there’s those few
But, oh, please try to change me
So many have tried
Yet all have failed
A slap to the face- shot to the ego
Fall to the floor, blood soaked cheeks
Reality shown a light on the truth
Life’s kept you curls up inside
All torn to pieces
The world is a horrible place
Full of people who are full of shit
Filling you with lies of the mouth
Delivering stabs to the heart
Incurable wounds
Razorblade in hand, scared up wrists
Devilish howls in the night
Being pushed down
Fighting with all your might
Nose in the dirt as you see a tear fall
Your taking hit after hit
Its gonna be a fucked up recovery
But, don’t worry Hun
As long as they have blood
Though their veins
They will be chased
Tortured souls of the night
They will die
Porcelain skin- so cold to the touch
Eye the deepest of all colours
Blood lust thoughts that fill the room
Kisses like razors upon your neck
The world is a horrible place
Full of people who are full of shit
Filling you with lies of the mouth
Delivering stabs to the heart
Incurable wounds
Scream
I wanna hear you scream
See the blood run down your cheek
Hold me close; tell me you love me one last time
One last kiss, just like our first
As if searching for the answer
Life is getting to hard for the both of us
I drift away slowly in your already numb arms
Your already gone & awaiting me
I saw the last physical tear to run down your face
My soul finally leaving this horrible hell
Gone to find yours in a better place
Being able to be together forever
This is not just love
It’s something more
The best for the both of us

So self-righteous,
Is that your charm?
Still,
I prostate myself upon the table.
Before you, Jackal,
and your knife.
Swooning, delirious,
Anesthetized by love.

Wicked Ways

Wicked are the ways of men
The lies they tell bubble up from hell
Floating....gliding.....effortlessly
Rolling down their tongues
Bouncing off their lips
To your ears they flow
Words no one wants to hear

Wicked are the ways of men
Lure you to your grave they will
With words of silk and honey
Begging for your money
Raised dagger at the ready
To pierce your heart unhurriedly

Wicked are the ways of men
The battle for your soul they pledge
Endless nights that drag like years
Broken hearts.........tattered lives
Battle through the starry skies
Looking for a way back home
To a time when bliss was hope

Clean is Weak

Celibate your life away
Then forget about me
Overrule your personal control
Then call me free of this useless coalition
The road didn't end when you reached distination
If I leave you behind forgive me without my repentance

So keep pristine
And I'll just leave
I'm too young to stay so clean
I don't want to be so sin free
...as my reality

Abstain, you're such a bore
Stay white and call it pure
I'm done here then if you're so sure
I've got goals my girl
And you're nothing to explore

So keep your chastity
And I'll just go away
I guess you're too worthy
I just don't give a damn

Yeah keep yourself clear
All oh so undiluted
But I won't stay here
I've got business to take care of
When I let you go, just fall away
And I'll leave you as just some history

The Cycle of Life and Death

The cycle of death begins with life
the cycle of life ends with death.
Its funny how we are born.
We are brought into a world of
hate,
anger,
pain,
Most of us will be taken out into;
Love
Cherished
positive attitude(s)
Pearly White Gates,
Streets paved with Gold.
The two combine sadly
Right now in this world
They are equal but they
Aren't suppose to be,
Life is suppose to be filled with happiness
Death is suppose to be filled with sadness.
As we go on in the world, along with
Poilitics,
Schools,
Families Tearing apart,
Life is full of sadness, and so is death.
Some people take life into their own hands,
ending it for people they hate,
While also taking life into their own hands,
ending it for themselves,
Never knowing exactally
How much hurt they cause
How much they are missed
How much people really cared for them.

Sour Grapes

I wipe the reflection of you on the mirror, and it comes back dirty
You can't hold on to everything, and sometimes they just have to fall off of your shoulder
The machine that I used to be has run out, unplugged from the wall
The part of me that everybody longed for, the words, the feelings, they've all departed

The rain falls on the roof, makes sounds of bullets punching through the skin
You're the only thing that comes to my mind when I'm huddled in that corner
That moment when I lost all of it, the tile dirtied by seasons past
The rust is still there, passing over my hands and seeping-down through the blood to the bone

The mechanicalist
The depression
The lack of humanity

It's gone from white to brown, and I've gone from compassion to lacking thereof
Time to slap on your helmets and go out to where the bullets are flying
The temperature has dropped from sweltering to bone-chillingly freezing
Each opportunity passed is just another stab in the back for me, these four sets of eyes on mine
The flesh under my eye is swollen and black, but I do not feel any pain.

Washed away
Deafened
Just take me away

2008-10-01 [Parfaitement Son Beau Cauchemar]: Mine took me 3 hrs stright to write ><

2008-10-01 [2nd Hand Ambulance]: I actually don't remember how long mine took, since it is really old, and this really old one was actually rewritten from one that was really old when I rewrote it.

2008-10-01 [DJ_Devil™]: so, you could argue that it's actually ancient, if you take into account the time from first draft to now? x]

2008-10-01 [2nd Hand Ambulance]: I don't do drafts, some time ago though I found I had a nice couple verses written, but the third one was too dry, so I changed it and added to it, and I think changed maybe two of the words already there. So then that would make about 2/5 of it ancient enough to be a myth, and the rest legend.

2008-10-01 [Defiance1986]: may all contestants have the best of luck.

2008-10-01 [2nd Hand Ambulance]: Oh? I don't want luck to have any part in this.

2008-10-01 [Parfaitement Son Beau Cauchemar]: No no no, without your genious being in it it would not make anything as great as a compitition ><

2008-10-01 [2nd Hand Ambulance]: Choose your weapon!

2008-10-01 [DJ_Devil™]: pitchfork!
xD

2008-10-01 [2nd Hand Ambulance]: Alright you and your angry mob can go against me and my... Thunderbolt attack!
Ah... pokemon used to be so great.

2008-10-01 [Parfaitement Son Beau Cauchemar]: Ah, i wanna use........ Hmm... idk. What makes a good weapon? Hairspray!!! haha.. that stuffs killer xD

2008-10-02 [2nd Hand Ambulance]: Oh gosh, I think I led a bit of the topic of this place... Associating this nonsense with the contest seems reasonalbe ey? Well, I guess I could say -if- one of the people who was brave enough to choose their weapons get's a good enough position here they get to lead the first charge? Or else it can go in pandemonium... If that's what you kids want. you all seem to.

2008-10-02 [Parfaitement Son Beau Cauchemar]: *runs over and glomps [DJ_Devil™] licking his face* CHARGE!

2008-10-02 [2nd Hand Ambulance]: Of course you would want pandemonium. . . the youth is hopeless.

2008-10-03 [Defiance1986]: what i meant by luck is, simply may the people judging/deciding on the poems look closely into your poems and decide to the best extents... which i have no doubts upon.

2008-10-03 [DJ_Devil™]: oi! no licks! xD
not here, anyway.. save it for PM! lol

i, uhh.. actually handed over my judging/deciding post, since my knowledge of poetry sucks x]

2008-10-03 [Defiance1986]: hahaha... oh my, ain't our minds in the gutter..
ouch DJ... why you going to cut yourself down? all you need to judge poetry is the knowledge that helps you decide which one speaks out to you and how powerful the underlying message is.

2008-10-03 [DJ_Devil™]: see, i wouldnt do that x]
i'd pick the ones that made me laugh, with cheesy rhymes. not always the best way to be fair, especially when poems are usually from the heart :p

2008-10-03 [Defiance1986]: well, just try to look past the preliminary words and try to find the meaning. [Dragonfang's Poetry].. here's some of my other poetry.. just check it out DJ.

2008-10-03 [PunkRock Princess]: Hey you guys :) Just to let everyone know I loved all the poems in the contest :)

2008-10-03 [Shatureel]: Voting will start on Sunday, the crew and I have picked the top ten. Give me a few days to set the voting up, then you are free to vote. Please do not ask for votes in your private messages, or in your mood. Thanks all for your poetry, all were very good. For those of you who are interested, my Pumpkin Land Halloween Poetry Competition has started.
