foidanslanuit Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 (So yeah, I was upset when writing this. Comments still appreciated.) Lies Deceit Bringing pain Try to be honest And go nowhere fast Tears is all it will bring Doubt floods the mind Perhaps it will end Not possible Give in Cry These are the lyrics to some songs I've written. As per the instructions, I'm putting it all in one post. I want to come home to see you, But you don’t even care I’m alive. I’ve tried so hard I just can’t forget you; You won’t leave me alone. Somehow I’d see You’re face wheree’er I go; You’re always there. Taunting me. I want to come home and see you, But you don’t even care I’m alive. I have to come home to see you, How do I say that you're the one? I want to forget Your eyes, your touch, The pain. Why does it hurt So much to say no? You’re taunting me. I can’t come home and see you, Because you don’t care I’m alive. I won’t come home to see you, I know you are not for me. I have to believe. -------- Here I stand, I am all alone In a crowded room. Looking round (I see) People lost (alone) In a crowded room. Everywhere I go, Everyone I see, Is another face Another place In my mind. In a crowded room. I try so hard (not to) Feel the pain (but you) Hurt me anyways. People walk around Trying hard to find The place where they belong Tell me where to go Tell me what to say To get out of here Out of this crowded room. I’m out of here. Finally out of there. No more sorrow’s stares Cares have all gone, But still… Everywhere I go, Everyone I see, Is another face Another place In my mind. In a crowded room. ------- Talk spins Chatter encircles Driving me insane! I see the faces They appear so happy Why don’t they admit Their inner pain? Lying, deceiving Hating, fighting Begging, Pleading Screaming, Crying Bleeding, Dying! Try to wake up From the inner fantasy Shake me out Of my inner nightmare All I feel is Self-loathing. Passion dies Hope fades Love dissolves Terror reigns.
Wyvern Posted September 21, 2006 Report Posted September 21, 2006 Emotional pain and alienation definitely seem to be at the forefront of these poems... rest assured that many people at the Pen share similar problems and worries. I'm sure that I speak for several folks here when I say that I sympathize with the themes of these pieces. :-) The third one was my personal favorite of the bunch, as the sense of loneliness amongst people in crowds is something I've experienced as well. The rhythm definitely gave it a sense of song, and I'm sure a musical accompaniment would only make it better. Welcome to the Pen, Faith in Night. :-) I hope that you find many a kindred spirit here.
