Another long-ish song-poem by me. More experimental and more "moody" than my previous two. Read it and enjoy it!

Burning Desire
---

I'm feeling some heat
It's sweeping over me
I can feel my heart beat
What is happening to me?

The flames that burn
I am left to wonder
As the pages turn
My body is torn asunder

It's a burning desire
I'm caught on a wire
My body is on fire
As you take me higher

Times are changing
People are changing
The days grow colder
And I feel older

And I push on
I feel something surge
From deep inside
I can not hide

It's a burning desire
People are confused
I feel abused
I am losing my self control

Dare to question
How I feel
This is my answer
Because it is very real

It's a burning desire
A never ending fire
That is sweeping over me
I don't ever want to be free

A burning desire...

Trapped by the burning desire.

I actually had alot of fun writing this one up. As it is interesting and a wee bit different than what I normally write about. A more "twisted" poem, I should say.

Forgotten
---

It was a good while back
I thought I had everything on track
But then things changed
And it wasn't the same

It was like a broken dream
Nothing was as it seemed
And I tried to push on
But I never did feel strong

It was as if I was forgotten
And the memories seem to fade
And I am left alone
I was on my own

Soon I'm finding myself
In a desolate land
It was like my own personal hell
I couldn't even make a stand

Soon all hope will disappear
And my life will be enveloped
By unwarranted fears
And I won't be able to cope

It was as if I was forgotten
I can't believe this is happening
What can I do?
To make it through

I try so very hard
To show I have strength
I am going to impossible lengths
And I get torn asunder

It was af I was forgotten
And I don't know why
All I really want to do
Is cry, cry, cry...

It was as if...

I was forgotten.

A sad, depressive poem by me.

Defiance
---

No longer gonna let you push me
Too long have you hurt me
This time I'll be set free
No longer will I let you do these things to me

In my defiance I am taking a stand
I no longer need a helping hand
For you have pushed me way too far
Now I'm throwing down the bar

Take it for how you want it
But I don't care any more
You tried to make me feel bad
And you tried to leave me lying on the floor

In my heart I felt so hurt
I couldn't even get out a word
You wanted to make me feel crumbled
And all my thoughts has become jumbled

In my defiance I am finally set free
No longer letting you do anything to me
You will see a brand new side of me
As I wait through the never ending posibilities

Soon you will see
A new side of me...

In my defiance.

Entranced
=======

I am enveloped by love
I feel like I'm lifted to the heavens above
Soon all despair seems to fade away
And all I want to say

I am entranced
By the way you touch me
It sets my heart and soul free
It's like wild fire

Soon all pain will fade
And now it's time I play
No more silly tricks from you
Because this love I feel is true

You open up your heart to me
And I hope you will be my baby
Because you touch me in all the right places
Soon all the fullness will fill the right spaces

I am entranced
By the way you touch
It means so much
And the way you feel

It is so real...

I am entranced!

You Bailed On Me
============

I can't believe it
Why did you do this to me
You seemed to have left me
In your wake

Now all that's left
Is a memory
Of the fun times we used to have
It made me real glad

But now
You bailed on me
And decided to leave me behind
And now I just want to cry

Soon my tears will flow
As my depression will show
And now you just go
As you walk away

My heart is broken
My love was stolen
Now the toll is being payed
And all you wanted was to play

So now
You bailed on me
And now you are leaving me
No more reasons to fall in love

There is no more love between us

Because you bailed on me.

Life Is Hell
=======

So many things seem to go wrong
And I try my best to stay strong
Through the trials and the tribulations
Overcome by a depressive sensation

Too many times that I spent crying
And too many times that I got caught lying
My happiness was a farce
And everything seems so sparse

Life is hell
I feel so unwell
I try not to dwell
In this never ending pain

I'm wracked with pain
And I'm flushed by torment
I am overwhelmed
By this horrible predicament

Soon everything will burst into flames
And nothing will be able to tame
The beating heart within my chest
I will never be able to rest

Life is hell
As you can plainly see
It seems like a endless dream
But don't be fooled

By the senseless things...

Because life is hell.

Carrying The Weight
==============

People leave me to wonder
Why I feel like I'm weighted down
My body is torn asunder
And all I can do is frown

I'm carrying the weight of the world
Soon all things will grow bored
And all that's left is a shattered dream
I don't quite understand why I want to scream

Sometimes I wish to beg forgiveness
But it falls upon deaf ears
And soon the pressure will come back
And I won't be able to control my tears

People think with a closed mind
Set on thoughts as they seem to deny
A mess they leave me in as they see me cry
Sometimes I'd wish I could die

I'm carrying the weight of the world
And people just leave me with all the work
I feel like I'm doing a never ending job
And people wonder why I look like a slob

It's because I'm carrying the weight...

Of the world.

Stronger Than Before
===============

It's time I make a confession
I used to be insecure
And I wasn't so sure
Of how to admit to my obsession

Nor could I tell you
How much I wanted to be with you
But now I'm finding something within me
A feeling that leaves me feeling free

I'm stronger than before
I finally realize what's been going on
And now I feel strong
And I'm finally standing my ground

You will see a new side of me
No longer feeling any negativity
I am gonna start thinking positively
And I'm gonna let the sun shine through

No longer gonna let things get me down
Gonna turn this frown upside down
And I will finally be able to smile
All of the while

I'm stronger than before
This is the brand new me
I finally feel free
As you can finally see

I am stronger than before.

Mind If I post one of mine? Its kinda old, i wrote it last year sometime. Its kinda meh, hope you like it.


The Old Oak Tree


The Seasons change, as do those that view them.
The Leaves wilt, followed by winter, then spring, summer.
The wind a cold kiss, against espoused skin, as you sit under the branches,
Of a old oak tree.

Though friends leave, lovers fade, families die.
The trees still remain, the sun will always rise, the moon will continue its decent.
The wind will still kiss, the stars will still shine.
They will all still listen, never speaking out of turn, never judging.
Just listening as you sit at the bank of the river, under the branches of the old oak tree.

The seasons change, the streets are filled with children, but soon they are off to school, while you have just got out.
The children grow, have families of there own, and die.
But still the trees remain, as you sit under the branches of the old oak tree.

The roads the same, though the faces have changed.
Your friends have left, your lovers faded, your family died.
Though still the trees remain.
You die under the branches of the old oak tree.

Your body wilts, your name forgotten.
None leave flowers on your grave.
But still the trees remain, as you lay buried under the branches of the old oak tree.
