tis better to have never loved at all
than to have loved and lost
a simple twist of phrase
a new meaning appears
new words of wisdom shed light
light in the cold dark corners of hearts
a cold harsh truth
pain to hearts unprepared
so before you give in to loves siren call
remember this cold truth
love hurts...
love scars...
love wounds...
and they always leave the pieces when they go...
someone makes another choice...
another heart of mine ends up broken...
another tear I cannot shed cannot fall...
the winds of sorrow blow the pieces away...
i wish to hate but all i feel is the sting of betrayal...
betrayal by my own heart...
had you fooled didn't i...
had you thinking i still had hope...
had you hoping that i was found...
wrong again
he had me fooled...
had me thinking he was worth the wait...
i was so easy to toss away...
the heart is a fragile thing...
broken again its dust-like pieces scattered about...
broken so many times...
it dies...
Shadows lengthen
Fire dwindles
Water ceases its ebb and flow
Earth crumbles to dust
Wind no longer blows
The planet is stagnant.
Dieing
Like my heart
But dieing is not dead.
Perhaps there is still hope.
Perhaps I will be
the pain never ceases now...
the anger never subsides...
all i feel is HATE...
i'm lost in it...
a cloud of darkness...
pain...
anger...
sorrow...
so far gone the sun cannot be found...
no stars light the skies at night...
no polaris to guide me home...
simply...
lost...
Sweet words filled with nothing
Broken heart full of despair
Rose petals in shreds
Wine glass shattered on the floor
Bitterness strikes its chord
What was done can never be undone
Darkness reigns supreme
Into the darkness my heart reaches...
reaches out for succor
Into the darkness my arms reach...
reach out for your caress
Into the darkness my mind screams...
screams out for companionship
Into the darkness my body craves...
craves anothers touch
Into the darkness my soul weeps...
weeps forever in longing
I sit and stare...
Into the darkness
Darkness Falls,
You wait…wait for the lights to come.
Hope, Joy, Happiness, Love.
These are the lights you wait for.
The never come.
Our world has fallen into Darkness,
We humans deny the lights.
We've become afraid to touch,
Because the light brings so much Pain, and Darkness seems to soothe.
Without pain we become numb,
unfeeling.
Like blocks of Ice, falling through Rivers of Time.
As Darkness falls and others choose unfeeling,
I look for the Ultimate Light.
Love, the Ultimate Pain
Tonight, a piece of my soul has died.
I let go of the Past;
Embraced the Future.
Happiness and Joy came on the Wings of Love, newly found and shared.
Somehow, though, sorrow came on memories wings; as I remembered a time of Love gone horribly wrong.
I sigh, what's done is done!
It cannot be changed.
And, while I embrace a Future filled with Hope;
I release the Past.
Feeling a great sorrow as my heart realizes that a part of me, a glimmer of my immortal soul, has died…
Feeling…
A smile so sweet
A kiss so dear
A loving touch
And three words we wish to hear.
This is the meaning of Love!
Feeling…
A kiss of passion
A burning desire
A beat of hearts, two made one.
This is the meaning of Love!
Feeling…
A touch of your hand
A sweet melody of angels
And an unspoken truth that both parties hold near.
This, is the meaning, of Love.
Once I had a Heart of Ice;
icy and unyielding.
Then you came with your Heart of Love;
fiery and warm.
For two weeks you showed me Love and melted my Heart of Ice.
Then, when it was nothing more than a puddle, you turned away, leaving me cold once more.
Once I had a Heart of Ice,
And now it's a Heart of Stone.
You say that you to hold me in your arms Forever.
Love me, Forever, and never leave.
But I am only one man; the first you have ever loved, and while I hope, the last, I doubt it.
You see me as an Angel sent from above, but I am not.
How long until you realize this and drift away?
As has happened in my past!
How long before you find another Angel, the one meant for you, and you drift away, "leaving me cold once more."
And my life will repeat, saying,
"Once I had a Heart of Ice, and now it's a Heart of Stone."
You say you are unseen,
Then why do my eyes see your tears?
You say you are not heard,
Then why do your sobs echo in my ears?
You reach for Love but claim you are denied,
Then why does my heart reach to soothe your ache inside?
You are my friend.
Your side I shall never leave.
My Love I give to you,
As long as the wind does breathe.
When you reach out your hand,
Take mine in return,
And from the abyss I'll pull you,
You'll never return.
Rely on your friends,
As they rely on you.
And Love will lift you up,
Above the ocean blue.

Confessions of a Witch
In dark of night,
By light of day,
When heavens power holds sway,
Then shall I love.
By light of the moon,
In the suns glorious rays,
When the earth sings and oceans sway,
Then shall I love.
When Fire heals,
And Water burns,
When Wind is solid,
And Earth flows like a zephyr breeze,
Then shall I love.
When shadows part,
And light disappears,
When lightning strikes and brings no tears.
Then I shall Love.
The infinite beat of war is roused again.
The dragon comes forth from the depths to unleash fire and terror.
The rivers of earth no longer run with water but blood.
Death, the skull-faced fiend, runs rampant in city streets and people fall beneath his dripping scythe.
Fire and Brimstone rain from the heavens.
Nothing remains.
The infinite beat of war is roused again.
Nothing shall survive.
We live under shadow of an unholy trinity.
Death, Ignorance, Hate.
These block out Light.
Life, Wisdom, Love.
What sort of people are we when we chose to live under a dark oppressive shroud, instead of lights glorious sky.
When Death outweighs Life;
Ignorance outweighs Wisdom;
Hate outweighs Love.
When darkness outshines light and we accept.
When we have truly from Grace.
Then shall holy Trinity break;
Life come to an end.
And in darkness, shall chaos Rule.
In a new place.
Many a new face.
So why am I alone?
My past left behind.
But it left its mark in kind.
So why am I alone?
I'm not asking for forever.
Just the passion of arms that will never…
So why am I alone?
Maybe I ask too much.
Or maybe I'm just a slut.
I just want arms to hold me.
And a pair of lips to moan my name.
So why am I alone?
Millions of water-drops fall
Like so many unshed tears
Spraying from the fount of pent-up emotions
Backed by the power of long years
They walk by day by day
Never knowing why you sit and watch
This fount is your unshed tears
The ones you wish you could cry each night
Instead you stare in silent heartbreak
They watch as if you were a show
No one asks if you are alright
No one cares why your heart won't grow
Drowned in sorrows waters
The fount your only release
Its million water-drops your sorrows song
Your silent dreams it keeps

there comes a time...after long years of loneliness sorrow and pain... that you have to make a choice...find some release for the pain and betrayal you feel...for years mines been poetry...still i repeatedly put myself out there to end up heartbroken again...6 years of romantic pain and anguish...something i can't take anymore...so today i make my choice...no longer to i put my faith in the hearts of men...i am better off alone
