Nothing is on a distinguished road
Today I finished two writings! WOW!


Heavens Tears
January 22, 2006

Slowly the rain starts to fall
Heaven's weeping its tears
For all its sorrow and sadness
It's grieving for humanity
And all sadness they've caused
The sky breaks loose
The tears begin to flood
Humanity loathes the rain
But heavens tears are caused by them



Fallen Angel
January 22, 2006

It seems to be somewhere at night
She's awake in the dark
She's all alone and she's scared
She can't remember anything

She doesn't know her name
Can't remember what happend
What's going to happen?
She's trapped inside her mind

Everything's so silent
Nothing seems to be humane
She notices her body is painful
A feeling she didn't know before

She stands up, and walks away
Her path seems to be a labyrinth
Once again she's trapped
She cannot find her way out

In a waterpool she sees her reflection
But she doesn't recognize herself
Who am I, she wonders
Why am I bleeding, why am I wounded

All of a sudden she remembers
The memories come back, all at once
But somehow she doesn't want to remember
She rather feels her painful body

She remembers she ended on the ground
After she was falling down
During her fall she broke her wings
And they fell off, she lost them

She remembers why she was falling
And why she reached the bottom
She remembers her name again
Her name is Fall

You're on a roll! Nice job on both poems, Nothing. Fallen Angel has an interesting story. And I really liked the idea behind Heaven's Tears. That is probably one of my favorite poems of yours so far.

Keep it up!

Nothing is on a distinguished road
Last Days

All hope is perished
As she lives her last days
She is afraid to die
But there's no reason to live
Maybe she needs help
She needs you to help her
So she reaches out her hand
And she’s crying for help
No one hears her screaming
No one sees her falling
She is all alone
But no one cares

She reaches out her hand
And she tries to touch you
But you're to far away
She can't reach you
She needs you so much
Without you she’s nothing
But you went away
You left her alone
She’s nothing at all
But you don't mind
She doesn't has a choice
She is left to die

That poem probably has the most accusative conjugations ive ever seen in any type of writing. And also- your lines dont seem to end, ever. Is that part of the poem?

Nothing is on a distinguished road
Here are my two new writings. The first is about my anxiety disorder. And the second, well, I'm not sure I think it's about my fear to be abandoned


Fear
February 2, 2006

Her hands are bound
She's captured by her fear
She cannot breathe any longer
She thinks she's dying

No one sees her pain
Even through her hands are bound
The fear is taking over
Her heart quits beating

She's afraid to die
But no one beholds
She lives her life in fear
Her hands are forever bound



Taken
February 2, 2006

You take my heart
And tear it in two
Like a piece of paper
Like I'm nothing

You throw me away
And you remove me
Removed from your life
Like I'm nothing

You take my soul
And let it burn
Like dead wood
Like I'm nothing

You abandon me
And you don't care
About my feelings
I'm nothing to you

You take my life
And you rip it apart
You've forgotten me
Like I'm dead

My newest one. Please read and criticize.


Nameless
February 10, 2006

You turn on the music out loud
So no one hears you scream and shout
No one would hear you crying
When you wish that you were dying

And you hate your life
That is why you take the knife
And push it into your skin
Just to kill the pain within

You only want to see your blood
It feels nice to see it flood
Self-injury makes you stay
It helps you through the day

Your life is fallen apart
It truly breaks your heart
You scream out your pain
Because no one feels the same

Deep inside, your soul is torn
You wish you were never born
You can't live this life any longer
Every day the pain gets stronger

No one understands the way you feel
Everybody thinks it's so unreal
But you know the pain you feel inside
You know how many tears you cried

You cried just too many tears
And you've hidden them for years
You were only crying at night
Only you who's fighting this fight

And now you only want to bleed
Want to throw out everything you eat
You only want to cut up your skin
You just want to be thin

The tears slide along your face
You're longing for just one embrace
But no one's there, you're alone
To the world, your problem is unknown

Nobody knows what’s going on in your head
Nobody knows how many tears you shed
But you want the world to know
Everything that happened some time ago

This is why you made this choice
To let everybody hear your voice
But don’t you think this is the wrong way?
Do you really want to fade away?

You turn on the music out loud
So no one hears you scream and shout
No one would hear you crying
It hurts so much when you're dying

Yay, you've added more poems since I last visited your thread. Although I'm so busy that I'm not even here that often, but that's another story.

You're still doing a great job, Nothing. I liked the idea of your hands being bound in "Fear". It fits the theme of the anxiety disorder. "Taken" was good, too. I especially liked the first and final stanzas.

I wish I had more time to comment, but I don't. Just keep up the good work, and I'll see you around.

Thanks for your reply. I haven't got much time to be around. But I wrote another poem, two days ago.


Feelings
February 24, 2006

These feelings, she cannot escape
There’s no running, no place to hide
But she doesn’t want to feel this way
These feelings, she feels at this moment

She feels Sorrow,
That’s ruling and ruining her life

She feels Anger,
Because she did so many things wrong

She feels Anxious,
For everything that’s going to happen

She feels Haunted,
Because her nightmares remember her past

She feels Guilt,
For all the people she caused pain

She feels Hatred,
Because she doesn’t like who she is

She feels Solitude,
Even when she isn’t alone at that moment

She feels Misunderstood,
Because no one feels the same way

She feels Abandoned,
Because she’s left behind so many times

She feels Emptiness,
Because everything becomes too much

These feelings, she cannot escape
Even through she wants to run away
There’s no place to hide, she’s haunted
Maybe her only escape, is through death

Not bad. I don't think it's one of my favorites from your poems, but it has potential. I love how you mention all the different feelings that the girl is experiencing at one time. And the mixture of feelings is pretty realistic - you really can feel loneliness, anxiety, anger, and all those other emotions all at once. I liked how you capitalized the different feelings, too. It makes those words stand out a little more.

Just a few suggestions to help with the wording of a couple lines, if that's OK.


Quote:
She feels Haunted,
Because her nightmares remember her past
Maybe you could change this to "She feels Haunted, /Because her nightmares remind her of the past"? 'Remember' just didn't sound right when I read that line originally.

Quote:
She feels Guilt,
For all the people she caused pain
Again, it's just the wording of that second line there. Instead, maybe something like this would work: "She feels Guilt, / For all the pain she has caused people" or "She feels Guilt, / For all the people she's hurt"?

Also, in the last stanza, you could replace 'through' with 'though'. Probably just a mistype by adding in that extra 'r'.

Please don't think I'm trying to rip apart the poem. I only wanted to help. Your writing is very very good, and that's why I keep coming back. And you don't have to make the changes I recommended. They are just suggestions, after all.

Keep it up, and I'll see you around!
