That was great, Harmony! Very Happy

by DiscardedHarmony 12/27/2009, 3:46 am

Thankeys, both of you xD
Watch Me:
Oh, you think I'm sweet,
something soft to toy with.
I just store it inside;
the fire rages on.
I'm not a plaything.
I can be sharp too.
Watch me spew cutting words in your direction.
Watch me turn from my supposed innocence.
Watch me leave you behind.
Watch me break.

by DiscardedHarmony 12/27/2009, 9:14 am

Hm, this is a bit more graphic then usual... oh well xD

Nothing Moves:
Why can't I scream?
I try to make words,
but sound is buried deep within me and cannot seem to escape.
Why can't I bleed?
My blood no longer flows,
because my heart no longer beats.
Why can't I pull the trigger?
I will tell you why.
You broke me down until nothing moved.
You stole every shred of my shattered heart.
You ground it fine, then spit it out.
Now nothing breaks free.
Scraps of me lie on the ground,
and finally,
I can scream.

Great job. x3

Not very good; I wrote it just now. New Years always puts me in an odd mood xD

A fresh start
A new leaf
A new year calls my name
I never wanted to see this coming
I never wanted it to end
The best year
The worst year
One I shall never forget
But a new one is coming
A new decade like a train
Determined to bowl me over yet again
It started right last time
I won't let it end that way again
This year is hope

by **shadowsowner888** 1/1/2010, 2:57 pm

Woohoo for New Years! x3

by DiscardedHarmony 1/1/2010, 7:50 pm

Agreed xD New Years always puts me in a horrendously sappy mood :3

Screaming In Vain:
I want you here
Every breath I take, screams for you
Every shard of me, begs for your touch
I miss you so much, I can almost hear your voice
But almost, isn't quite enough
I realized, I need you
I need you more then I need myself
But you left, so myself left too
My blood pounds in my skull, I can't breathe anymore
Still,
Every drop of blood that hammers through my head, cries for you in vain
The breath that is captured in my chest, yells for you to release it
I cry, and every salty tear, screams out your name
I miss what you were, I miss what you have become
Every shredded ounce of me, howls for your return
Even though I know that will never happen

by **shadowsowner888** 1/5/2010, 11:19 pm

Awww . . . Sad

Poor person. (Man, that last word just ruined the mood. xD) That was great! x3

by DiscardedHarmony 1/6/2010, 8:13 pm

Tank yew :3 Heh, you're the only one to stick around, Shad xD

Pink Rain:
You split me open,
the blood runs down my face
mixed with tears,
like pink rain.
Your Satanic fingers,
clutch for my heart.
With bloodlust in your eyes,
determined to make me surrender.
Chasing me through the depths of time,
stopping means more pain.
But you caught me,
and tore what was already shattered.
Now your ugly fingers,
have nothing to clasp.
And pink rain,
pours over me still.

Ha, I'm getting more morbid, aren't I? xD

by **shadowsowner888** 1/7/2010, 7:36 pm

Lol, well, I like your poetry. x3

Yes, that was morbid. xD And also very good!

by DiscardedHarmony 1/8/2010, 8:23 am

Well, I'm flattered coolsmiley

K, so I tried to format this in a somewhat more interesting way, and succeeded. However, I think the poem itself fails .-.

I Am:
I

Am the one that thought you would be true

I

Am the one that you cradled in your arms

I

Am the one that knew

I

Am a tear-drop

Lost in the thunder-storm

I

Am nothing

That you think you know

I

Love you more then words could tell

I

Am the one you tripped

I

Am the one who fell

I

Am a feather

Tossed in a delicate breeze

I

Am rather lost here

Waiting for your call

I

Am the one who fell for you

I

Am the one you said you would stand by

I

Am the one you left broken and blue

I

Am an ocean

Filled with empty anguish

I

Am losing myself

But you draw away, still

I

Am the one who fell under your spell

I

Am the one who found out it was all fake

I

Am the one who will never dwell

I

Am

Not

You.

ETA: Dang it! The spaces didn't work... So, um, yeah, my plan for this poem didn't work so well... -.-

by **shadowsowner888** 1/8/2010, 9:10 pm

Aww! I wanna see the cool design . . . xD Well, I like it all the same. The poem was great!

by DiscardedHarmony 1/17/2010, 1:11 am

It wasn't thatcool anyway, but, oh well :3

Break Me:

Break me
Hurt me
Kiss me
Heal me
Shatter me and glue me back together
Take me apart and fit me in between
All these lies you created, stick the pieces in the middle
Bury me
Stab me
Hug me
Mend me
Everything that's balancing, blow it over
Bring the house of cards to it's knees
And it will all come tumbling down
Kill me
Take me
Show me
Love me
Take these threads of glass and snap them in half
Melt them down into something new
Reform my core and put it all back

by **shadowsowner888** 1/17/2010, 9:52 am

Wooooah.

That was cool! My favorite line is "bring the house of cards to its knees." It's just awesome. x3

by DiscardedHarmony 1/17/2010, 8:33 pm

Ha, thanks, that's my favorite line too x]

Foxglove:
Burnt to a crisp
but still freezing at the core.
Shredded, bruised wings
can carry me no more.

Beaten, bloody wings
torn and blackened.
Your healing touch
drifted off; slackened.

Splattered and defaced
vandalized by your clumsy attempts at love.
In the corner
a crude sketch of a foxglove.

Locked away
hidden from the world
my sad, sad wings
slowly unfurled.

The image of a foxglove
still cut deep into my skin
haunts me every fleeting instant
and reminds me of your sin.

To call you insincere
would be foolish.
Because, my dear
what you did was simply ghoulish.

Forever branded with this flower
I shall never forget you.
My wings carry the testimony
of how you were untrue.

Burnt to a crisp,
but still freezing at the core.
Shredded, bruised wings
can carry me no more.

NOTE: It helps if you know what a foxglove symbolizes :3

by **shadowsowner888** 1/19/2010, 7:10 pm

I dunno what a foxglove symbolizes . . . xD But I still like this one! I love how you kept talking about wings. Wings pwn.

by DiscardedHarmony 1/19/2010, 7:44 pm

Well, a foxglove can represent many things; it can be good or bad, hurt or heal, but mainly it just represents insincerity. And wings do pwn ;D

Let Me:
Leave me alone
I don't want your help
I'm pushing you away
Realize that now
I never wanted anyone else
I'm enough for me
Now let me be

Let me be empty
Let me be hungry
Let me drown in everything you wanted to be
Let me drift away
Let me survive here
Without you

This isn't what you wanted
But I need more then you
I'm weighed down by your wishes
So stop pulling me close
And let me break away
I'm enough for me
Now let me be

Let me be empty
Let me be hungry
Let me drown in everything you wanted to be
Let me drift away
Let me survive here
Without you

Hope is what I'm looking for
But you can't see
That I never wanted you
And every thing you mean
I'm enough for me
Now let me be
Hope is what I'm looking for
But you can't see
Me

Let me be empty
Let me be hungry
Let me drown in everything you wanted to be
Let me drift away
Let me survive here
Without you

I'm enough for me
So let me be...

by **shadowsowner888** 1/19/2010, 9:52 pm

I think that the person was being nice by dating a person. But he realizes now it was a huge mistake. nod

Great job! ;D

by DiscardedHarmony 1/20/2010, 9:05 am

In Foxglove or Let Me? Suspect

Eh, no matter, thanks xD

Just A Taste:
How can you want something,
so very much,
and never get it?
Just a taste
a glimpse
is all you get
before it disappears again.
A hint
a tease
then it's snatched out from under you.

My sense of pride won't let it go
I pretend I never wanted you in the first place.
But, again, it's a lie
and I never wanted to be without you.
Just a hint of you
made me crave your poison sweetness
even more.
Just a little bit
made me suddenly greedy
against everything I stood for.

But now it's over
and you don't get the prize.
But now it's over
and I never got you.

by **shadowsowner888** 1/20/2010, 5:57 pm

Let Me. xD

Awweh. The Just a Taste person needs to tell this person the truth. xP Maybe then it wouldn't be so bad for 'em.

by DiscardedHarmony 1/20/2010, 6:00 pm

Oh :3 'Twas more for my mom, but no matter, the interpretation is open xD
Ha, now we're talking about people instead of poems... xD
And I agree.

by **shadowsowner888** 1/20/2010, 7:13 pm

Lol, I like saying how I picture the poems. xD

by DiscardedHarmony 1/24/2010, 3:48 am

Well, thanks, that helps actually. :]

Thank You:

You're the only thing holding me up,
the only thing keeping me here.
Steadying,
like a breath of fresh mountain air.
Supporting me,
propping me up,
holding me through the torment.
I never thought anybody could support their own weight,
and mine,
through this.
So thank you.
Thank you for never abandoning me,
thank you for telling me I'm wonderful,
while I contemplated ways to end my existence.
Thank you for standing still,
amongst the waves of uncertainty.
You're the antidote to my poison,
the one that he poured down my throat.
You're my bullet-proof vest.
So thank you for pooling in my veins,
and covering my vital organs.
Thank you for protecting me from the scatter-shots.
Never letting me fall too far.

Meh, I feel like I'm getting worse... <.<

"That's good!" Shadow replied, appearing happy. She then proceeded to begin reading the parchment that Harmony's poem was on. As her eyes scanned the words, they widened, and her mouth slowly took on a more serious curve. "That's . . . that's what I need," she said, looking away from the parchment to meet Harmony's eyes. "I need someone like that person! The one who helped the main character!" She stabbed at the poem with her finger, gently so as not to tear it, but there was no mistaking the meaning of her words.

"Oh, right. Happy, happy, happy . . ." Shadow took a moment to channel the mood, then put a beam upon her face. "There, that's better. Anyway . . . well, I really liked that one. It might be my favorite so far!"
