this is called ode to zarathustra

the litheness of dandelion seeds pains the life in me
resting and resuming flight
whispering in the corners of the wind.
the song of images, existance,
delicate and dying
and yet life, full and shallow
ungrounded and without dreams
to be, to be, non cogitare
the truth of god and lies
cannot float
no saint can float nor lover, poet
only dandelion seeds sail through the frozen air

[Chaotic Rapture]

Killing her faith

A single word from her icy lips
A single kiss is killing
A silent emptiness, seen within her eyes
A silent teardrop falling, the pain so unwilling
She fell and she fell alone
Her screams so heartbreaking
Abondement, her forgotten soul
She lies awake, just wishing
Her faith shattered, but not yet dead
A hope only she can ask for
Deaf to her weeping prayers
She cries, praying she would fade away

this is more of an untitled rambling...

I tried to identify the blurs of light that danced before me through the watery haze but the burning would not cease. The shapes that fromed seemed to stand still as my very being seemed to melt away into a completedness of everything. The strumming notes gave me no comfort as my eyes darted cross dimensions of both spcae and time.

this one is calle Ghost of a Love

I wish that I could dance in the apple cider orchards,
steamed by the amber light of day.
To make a crown of golden branches,
oh, how I wish to play...

In your garden where the roses smell is sweet,
the maiden of the fountain stares so blank,
only I can hear her speak.

I shall weave a web of woe,
in the dungeon, so cold and bare,
and leave my nectars scent to linger in your chair.

Cheating Death

Your eyes speak truth,
though your lips chapped with deceit.
It's as though you'd try to lie,
to find a way to cheat.

Now don't tell me you can't hear it,
the looming whisper of death's wheeze.
He's pearched outside your window,
Your existance is a tease.

So, tell me do you wonder about the love that could not be?
Or stop to hear a whisper flowing through the trees?

Do you shudder on a breezeless day?
Or speak when no one's there?
Are you able to live a life,
with no love to share  

[Miang1490]

okay this is the last one for a lil while... this was my attempt at more of a rap sorta thing...hehe

Life is a ******** merry-go-round, going in circles as you bounce up and down, try to get off and your mom walks in on you. She asks if your driunk, yea youve had a beer or two. but you lie to her face and she dont know better.some drunk says she loves you when youve never met her. but you dont care, start pulling on her hair, it might not be fair, she dont know you but hell she didnt ask, how is she supposed to know your past? ******** it now you more than just buzzed and looking for anything that you can still ********. her mouth keeps flappin nothin comes out push her head to your waist shes suckin it now. next thing you kno wake up somewhere new, with three naked hos lying next to you. you feel a bit queezy hit the toilet with a bound and remember life is a ******** playground.

FACTS Of LIFE
(Written By A TEENAGE MIND)
You.
You call your self a parent.
My elder.
I am supposed to repect you.
Why.
You don't respect me,my individuality,or my sense of style.
You don't respect my truths.
You tell me I have an attitue.
Clearly it is you.
I know the truth.
The truth that repeats itself in every pluck of my guitar string.
In every snare tap and symbol crash.
In every bass walk.
In every scream.
Every profane word.
Every cut.
Every lie.
Every truth.
Why.
Why don't you accept it.
The truth.
Its here for you.
Take it or leave it.
Don't complain because you don't like it.
Don't try to recreate it because you have "higher authority".
You may be book smart.
But I'm a philosipher.
I join in with my brothers and sisters.
We repeat our words.
You lie to yourself.
Telling yourself that we have no idea.
No idea of what.
Is this not the truth.
Not to you.
You have convinced yourself that I am a lie.
That we are lies.
The truth stands.
I am a preacher.
A philisophical one.
Not a religeous one.
There they are for you to consume.
There they are for you to ignore.
The facts.
They are yours.
The facts of life.

Eh, since I'm in a poetic mood, I whipped something up for the contest. ^^; Hope ya like it. And yeah, it's about me and my mom. :3

Dear Mom.

Why don't you ask,
What is behind this mask?
Is it because you are scared of it?
Mother, please, I won't submit.

You walk by,
And hear me cry,
You ask what's wrong,
As I run my fingers through the hair that was once long.

I can say no words,
As chirping comes in the window from the birds,
Only wretched, crying sounds,
That would make any man give many frowns.

You tell me to talk,
I ask to take a walk,
You say okay,
And then we both walk away.

Into the forest we go,
Without anyone in tow,
I stop and turn around,
Giving you a very deep frown.

"Mother," I say,
"Why won't you stay?
Is it because of what I do?
Don't you know its hard to make it through?"

Looking at you with an angry expression,
I scream out all the problems that have been in repression,
"Mother, don't you see?!
I'm hurting, you don't know, and it's all because of me!"

I scream some more,
As the pain is let out of it's core,
Tears run down my face,
As they fall with no grace.

You say you didn't know,
But how, mother, how could it not show?
I wore long sleeves, and hid the pain,
Then I let it go like falling rain.

"I know it's wrong!" I scream,
"It's horrible, mom, like living in a dream!
A dream that is a nightmare,
Where there is no one there to care!"

"There's nothing more you can do,
Just let me follow through,
I can't go on with life,
So why not just let me take the knife?"

You walk to me and kneel down,
Before you think about going 'round,
You put your hands on my shoulders,
But mother, they feel like boulders.

"How should I have known,
To this, that you were prone?
What more can I say,
When you will just walk away?"

"I won't mom, I swear,
Please tell me you care...
I need your love, I need your smiles,
For you I'd walk a million miles..."

"Please mom, don't leave,
Please mom, my hope, help me retrieve,
Please mom, you've got to know,
About the pain I never show."

Pledge of Love

I've made a vow, to no one but you
I pledge my love to forever be true
I'll take care of you and treat you right
I'll lay beside you all through the night
I'll feed you and clothe you and keep you warm
I'll hug you and kiss you and give shelter in the storm
I'll help you and guide you and clear a path
I'll protect you and shield you from an angry man's wrath
I'll listen to your problems help you solve them too
I'll make you a rainbow and let the sun shine through
I'll take your side even if you're wrong
Just to prove our love is strong
I'll plant you flowers and make them grow
They'll be a symbol of love that only we'll know
I'll whisper your name when no one is near
So low that only you can hear
You'll feel my love even if we're apart
You'll know that we are one in heart  

[Nesiko]

Unwanted
I am a girl who isn't wanted around. By who?
Not by friends, not by family, not by you.
Yes, you.
Don't deny it. You know it's true.
I am a girl who is only in the way.
And thus, left astray.
For the rest of the day.
With loneliness, no longer afraid to stay locked away.
I am a girl who thought you loved me.
It turns out you'd be better off without me.
Used to get tingles when I said "we".
Used to think our love could grow taller than a tree.
I am a girl who is oblivious.
Isn't it obvious?
Why couldn't I see?
You didn't want me.
You'll never want me.
And that's the way it'll always be.
2nd Rate
That is just great.
I want you, and you know it.
But you're taken, and have back up.
I'll guess I'll just have to wait.
I'm only second rate.
You flirt and toy with my emotions
Compliments and flattery.
But I'm not on your list yet.
I guess I'll have to wait.
I'm only second rate.
You flip flop wives.
But will I ever have a turn?
I guess I'll have to wait.
I'm only second rate.
Invisible
I pour my heart out.
And still, you don't care
I feel like
You can't see me anywhere
Can't you see me?
Can't you hear me?
Calling out your name?
Who is to blame?
I am invisible
No one notices
No one cares
Nobody's ever there
I am invisible
Side Trophy
To me,
You're my best friend
My love interest
My everything
You're all I live for
I'm addicted to you
For you,
I'm a friend
A "playmate"
A side trophy
You don't need me
Like I need you
And I need something else...
Attention!
I don't want to sit and just look pretty
I want your time
Your heart
Your love
You have mine  

[Nesiko]

Silence
A silent scream
wakes me from my sleep
the scream was mine
and I begin to weep
Why does your face
haunt me in every dream?
why can't you be everything
that you seem?
Silent Tears
fall from my eyes
like silent rain
falls from the sky
Am I deaf?
am I mute?
fill me with life again
by calling me cute
Do to me
what you used to do
so once again
I'll be in love with you
I feel nothing anymore
you made me numb
you lied -- you don't love me
I'm just your "chum"
I give up
I'll walk, not run
the race to your heart
is over, it's done!
Rejection
So this is what it feels like
To be rejected
Feeling so confused...
Asking yourself questions:
Why did I ever like him?
Was I ever really in love?
Why'd he choose her over me?
If he didn't like me
Then why'd he flatter me?
Hug me?
Kiss me?
Love me?
Why is he the one on my mind?
Am I on his?
Why did he lie?
Why, why why?
Rejection...
Why I Hate Her
Why do I hate her?
Hm.. let's see
Right by your side
She'll always be
Though I don't own you
She took you from me
When she's around
Your heart has a fee
She always exclaims
"He's so sexy!"
For the lock on your heart
She has the key
You look at her
The way you used to look at me
Why do I hate her?
Gee...
Let's see...
Do I Know You?
Do you know me?
Because I don't know you
You make me so weary
You make me so blue
You really don't act
The way you used to
Sure, just ignore me, ditch me
See if I care!
But when YOU need ME
You know I'll be there
I'll cheer you up by remembering
The times we used to share
To you
I'll always be a friend
Has it really
Come to an end?
Keep this up
And it'll depend
