A new poem....

I hadn't made one in ages^-^

I used to have a thread here, but I didn't post in it for ages....guess it got deleted, because I can't find it anywhere....oh well^-^

Fading Image

Nothing left now; you’re just another face in a crowd.
The unchanged eyes, the unchanged smile,
But you’re becoming a stranger.

Malicious darling, still telling those awful lies?
Clever darling, I could have sworn you were different.
Miserable darling, I’ll give you no more pity.

I’m watching you as you watch me,
& I’m seeing something bizarre in your eyes….
something unknown to me.

You’re panicking now.
Have you lost your halo, angel?
Don’t bother searching for it….it’s well & truly gone.
No need to worry, though….
Just find another fool….they’ll hand you a new halo.

I’m starting this over, but I’m finishing it.

I’m looking the other way & I’m falling behind.
I’m breaking free, I’m losing my ties; I refuse to follow a shadow.

Eager eyes, triumphant eyes, there’s still so much more to witness.
Focusing on nothing, but seeing something….just a glimpse of something.

Left or Right? Choosing the correct path is important.

I’ll take happiness, thanks.

Sore & sick.
Reaching my redeemer is a precarious journey….
But just a glimpse of him is worth everything.

“Never,” darling used to say….
You’re helping me forget, sweetheart.

Your thread was in the wrong Forum, sweety.

Is there anything you can't do missy?? Beautiful and multi-talented, I'm impressed. As for the other thread, why don't you transfer all of your pieces from there to here rather than bumping it? It was two years ago, after all 😄

to quote Mr Burns "I know what i hate...and i dont hate that" 😉

Haha😄 well..I have a short poem thingy....

Ripping up those photographs, ignoring those perpetual smiles;
she's trying to erase the past again.

He was grey.
There was no understanding in his eyes…no comfort, no forgiveness.

No air for her to breathe now.

She waited, but she had forgotten the sound of his voice.

She still counts the days, but sighs as each one passes her by.

I wrote this one yesterday^-^........

Puppeteer

We spoke until our lips were black & blue; what is left to say?

I loathe myself…just look at me...

I’m right at your feet like I always was, your majesty. I’m granting your every wish.

Strength in my heart, but gullibility in my eyes.

Where's that awkward silence? You're not hiding that sordid charm any longer, Romeo….you're so sure you're moving on.

Come out from behind that mask…
Can't conceal your true face forever.

Devilish Eyes.

What am I doing?
I can’t deal with this…
I’m out of my league…just a snowflake immersed in white confusion.

You loved those games…
Toying with me always amused you.

Always the winner, always the martyr.
Please, just give me one game to win.

You’re draining me dry.
Curled up like some ugly creature, I’m craving some dignity.

What a sad picture this is.

Digging myself out of this chaos will be a difficult task.

Yes, I’ve found myself in a mess of trouble once again:
Bad habits are hard to break.

I’m burning up inside, but the storm is clearing.

Clear vision, clear reflection…

Something snaps in me.

My eyes have lightened, and the corners of my mouth have turned.

Oh, darling…I’m not smiling for you.

I’ve left you defenceless…
Silly me.

Eyes open, dear…
Danger is only two steps behind you…
Time to quicken your pace.

I was so sure I could hold onto you, but I happened to find something better to focus on.

You’re falling into the void…
My smile falters…
But I swear to hell I won’t be on the other side to rescue you.

Clever little fox…
You always find a way.

Dammit, nobody should be beautiful and multitalented like you!!!! 😛 Very nice work Rou hug

😂 blushing

Thanks Coldfire hug

Waking From A Dream

Same old view, & I’m trying to break it.

Can’t see past the nothingness to that flawless scenery on the other side.

But you’re building a place,
You’re clearing the skies.

Never deserved a real victor,
But I’ll gladly breathe in the summer air.
Can’t complain with perfection.

I’m reading your eyes…
I know you.
I take a breath.

We’re invincible.

Can’t fall apart in the hands of liberty.
No chance of stormy skies now.

Take my hand; I’ll melt into you.

The earth’s spinning now,
Can’t help but lean on each other….
And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Kicking up the dust.
Couldn’t care less about causing mayhem.
We’ll emerge from the deep end.

This is what we were waiting for.

No need to speak,
Don’t want to ruin a summer’s day.

Wrapped in a fantasy.

Nothing has felt sweeter.

wow. i'm impressed with your style and the theme of your work. it's really good. i like that it's written in a contemporary style which is gaining popularity. unlike me who is still in the old way of writing with strict meter and cadence and rhyming convention. but when you read yours slow and aloud...it all makes sense, not that it didn't before.

sadly most people tend to read poetry as if it were a magazine to be skimmed real fast and not taking the time to enjoy it and allow the words to sink in and be mesmerised.

okay...i've done my part. good work Roulette. your talent is raw but very good.
