Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Lonely

~Inside the Mind of an Orphan~With each train that passes,My hope slowly fades,My family is gone now,No time for charades.I guess i must vanish,And never look back.For my mother's not coming,By way of train track.My father and sisters,Whose faces are blurred,The memory of their voices,Not there to be heard.The birds are my br...

The Candle~Why does a candleProduce so much heat?And why is it hopeFor a man on the street?A candle is tiny,And so is it's flame,So much like a child,But not quite the same.A child is tiny,but soon he will grow,a candle get smaller,Can die with one blow.But both have a center,Surprisingly warm,Ignites those around it,No matte...

DefianceA never ending battle,Thats what my life means to me,Every day you "die" for something,Like for your heart to be free,To "die" is just to step from,Your friendly comfort zone,Although is may feel like it,You never are alone.Your voice shall be your weapon,Your hope shall be your shield,Your God shall be your ally,The ...

Daddy's Folded Shirts~My mom was always organized,My father was a mess,My mother made his breakfast,And she chose how he would dress.Then one day out of nowhere,My messy father died,But mom still made his breakfast,To fill the gap inside.Each day I'd wake and shower,Then enter mother's room,My father's shirt was folded,I smel...

The fortune-I got myself a fortune with my meal just yesterday,when I read it I felt cheated, and I left the small cafe.It said I have no fortune, what's to come is up to me,through my choices and my actions comes my future destiny.and those numbers labeled "lucky" mocked me as i read the back.The randomness reminded me of li...

schizophrenia~I hope (no I don't) that I'll fix what is wrong,and I'll wish (no I won't) that it won't take to long.Yes I think (not at all) that this thing in my headNeeds to leave me for good (or just stay here instead)I've thought of a way (though it's not here to stay)To rid me of this evil (wait, what did you say?)A gran...

What I Saw In Me~It's what I saw inside of meThat drove me to succeed.The will I never knew I hadWas what made me proceed.I wish that I could share with youThe feeling of successThat comes when time and hope pays off,Two things that I possess.It's crazy how that's all you needTo do what others can't.You use the most complex o...

Home, Stubborn Home.My ceiling fan threw upon me,It said that it got dizzy.My phone refused to take my call,Complaining it was "busy".My stove claimed it was much too coolTo cook my lunch or dinner,My whole fat milk just ran away,It wished that it was thinner.My clock slept in for half the day,Got in some extra "snoozes",My s...

The Salem InnocenceThe Salem witch girls,Put to shame,I cry for each one,Though i know not one name,Their haunting eyes,Still curse my sight,The eyes of the innocent,Found dead the next night.The children called freaks,And thought of unfair,Who still thought God,Could hear their last prayer.And God who watched,No help to give...

~ Tour De Life ~Riding through life, on the thin bumpy road,Sin and revenge make a quite heavy load.Disease flattens tires, chains snap over greed,Patience and kindness are all you should need.Take out your money and toss it aside,Life without greed makes an easier ride.Throw out your worries and pains from your past,The less...
