They Will Drown [[Morgan's Poetry]]
 
So you guys get the idea, I'm going to post here my random forays into the world of poetry, I certainly hope you enjoy.

Beyond the Blacktop

The sun's so vengeful now,
Stuck here in this town,
Like you and me.
Pinned so quietly
To this.
Follow the lines
decode the signs.
Pinpoint our location
South of twisted motivation
and North of all we knew.
Here's where we are,
Where we've been,
And where we're running to.

I always love that poem... You know why. x]

Wanderlust

Upping and downing
Upon the darkest sea
The Bravest Sailor
Is looking out for me

I'm all mixed up
And so messed down
There the stars above
Hold me to the ground

And I don't want to leave
'Cause I know not where to go
With blackened eyes I grieve
and nothing left to show

The ripples here distort
The beauty of it all
And here am I ignoring
The handsome sailor's call

Morgan 09-21-2010 02:26 PM

Thank you White <3, I like it too. I finally named the second one after much thought

#FFFFFF 09-21-2010 02:27 PM


Oooooo. Yes. That's a good title. <3

Delirium 09-21-2010 02:29 PM

Hey now, I really enjoyed both of those pieces. Thank you for sharing them with us.

Morgan 09-21-2010 02:29 PM

Thank ya m'am, =] and thank you very much for reading them, you have made my day!

Your poems will definitely be read here. xD

Inches From.

"Seventy-fold times seven,"
says he whose heart is filled
With raging violent passion
For those of us strong-willed

There is easy pain in breathing
and sorrow on our lips
we tempt the taunting blade
with calloused fingertips

A broken record lulls
its quiet broken tune
floating out the door
of the silent Dying Room

He is floating in a sea
Of medical machine
He draws another breath
Here the closing scene

A vacant crowd is standing
about the silver bed
they glance into his pockets
ignoring what he said

They are waiting, only waiting
For the ceasing of his breath
They are fighting, always fighting
For the moment of his death

#FFFFFF 09-21-2010 03:05 PM


I love that. It makes me sad... But lately anything that has to do with death makes me sad... You know?

Delirium 09-21-2010 03:07 PM

I'm envious of the rhyming. I'm not very good at getting poetry to rhyme.

#FFFFFF 09-21-2010 03:07 PM


She has an obsession with couplets.

Delirium 09-21-2010 03:08 PM

Well,she's very good at it. I encourage the obsession.

#FFFFFF 09-21-2010 03:09 PM


As do I. ;P I've been reading her stuff lately... When I'm not lazy. I have this thing where I only read my own amateur writing. XD

Delirium 09-21-2010 03:13 PM

Well the two of you have spurred me to write. Let's see if I can pen something before the day is out

#FFFFFF 09-21-2010 03:14 PM


I should write something before the day is out myself... I haven't in a while. I should post my other poem that I like a lot in there as well...

Delirium 09-21-2010 03:53 PM

*dusts off hands* Okay I spit some words out, thanks to the two of you getting my thoughts turning :)

The One That Talked.


There is a path for him to take,
The leaves will crumble as they break,
He walks by himself,
but not alone
Their saccharine voices are calling him home.

He looks upon the rugged rock,
Barely breathing, too scared to talk
The waves crash upon the wasting cliffs
No one could, could ever stop this.

He runs his fingers through his hair,
Pondering his last affair
One with the rocks and with the sea
One to take him away from thee

A single step,
Rocky debris,
His own words torment you
You only did what you could do

His breath shortens in his chest
He'll find a way to final rest
The voices call him quietly
Offering him his sanity

He takes another ragged breath
To plunge into the icy depths
He never wanted to go like this
But peace is an offer he cannot resist

He reached out to you
Flailing for your hand
But you dismissed him
He couldn't meet your demands.

He told you of their pretty words
And how it was all he ever heard
You said he was fine, it was all his head.
Remember these rocks...
That are covered in red.

Remember when you said...
There's nothing wrong with him?
And how he should be a man,
to earn your love again.

Remember those pretty blades?
That you forced into his chest
Don't worry dear
Mother does know best.

So he did what he thought he had to
Let gravity take control
You should have seen how lovely he was
Playing his final role

The medics will be there
a moment too late
With purple lips he sealed his fate
His mind no longer feels the pain,
This was all that he could gain.

They'll pull his remains
From the relentless stone
His secret pain
Can now be known

His body is no longer one piece
But thanks to you he found his peace
Lying shattered upon the rocks.
This is the end of the one that talked.

A Note On All Things Lovely

It's in the tears
Of those that cry
The ones who shun
The mirror's eyes

It's in the boy
On her step
Begging for her to take his breath

It's in her blade's kiss
And sweet subtle bliss
It's in her lungs
and upon the tongue

It's in love
Secretly there
It's in the mouth
Of those unaware

It's in the meeting
Of soul one and soul two
Out of this
Beauty grew

Hrmmm. I like these. o:

Confetti Breakdown


Glitter and sparkle baby
They're littering your eyes
Come on now love
Try and take me by surprise

And there's the sunrise darling
The color of a flame
No matter how much I try to heal
I'll never be the same

Can you see the tundra sweetie?
Does it remind you of my heart?
Don't let me fool you kid
I've loved you from the start

The plains are over there my heart.
You can see every piece of me
So take my hand in yours dear one

And Oh! Look for the sea
The water sparkles from the sun
Isn't it beautiful Love?
It seems I jumped the gun.

Your sparkles and glitter
Were not prepared for me
Can you take me all in baby?
Tell me what you see?

The Difference Between


The walls are tinged with the color smoke
But there was no fire here
It all brings back a lesson learned
Things are not as they appear.

Geysers in the ceilings
Trace patterns on the beds
One can here them whisper
But never hear what's said.

Tearful eyes erase the stains
That have always lined the walls
After come the haunting screams
That leak into the halls

Bloodied lips tell tales
Of stories once told here
The cobwebs show life
But there is nothing but their fear

#FFFFFF 09-21-2010 07:42 PM


I really like that second one.

Morgan 09-21-2010 07:44 PM

Me too, even if it is pointless

#FFFFFF 09-21-2010 07:50 PM


Yeah. xD I still like it.

The Monster


For we were once
The Beloved ones,
Now look upon
What we've become
The sky is clouded
With the Smoke of our oldest
Not to be alleviated
By even our boldest
The Forest, wizened with age
Is bound here by this decaying cage,
Like a murderer we come
With bloodied knife
We seem determined to prolong their strife
We destroy
What shields us from
The vengeful rays
Of Morning Sun
We take and take
But know not to give
To this dying planet
On which we live.

Disillusionment


His heart pounds inside his chest
Aphrodite leaves him succorless
He is captured by maiden eye
In her hands, his life does lie
He gives it all saving none,
Until it seems her heart is won
He puts her up among the stars
Ignoring pain and possible scars
He loves with white hot intensity
Supplementing her vanity
She demands his full attention
This sickening greed creates dissension.
So his eyes begin to wander
Others he begins to ponder
He finds another and betrays the trust
All men are slaves to incomparable lust

Price


Lights shine down
Blurring out your eyes,
You never thought you'd make it here
But no one is surprised.
Pressure's on
and you don't know what to do,
You'd do anything,
to make them proud of you.
Keep up the smile boy,
they're expecting it you see?
If only you had listened,
but you're just too naive.
It's becoming hard,
just to face a day.
All this is on you,
and you just want to play.
Run your fingers through your hair,
and wipe away the tears,
Call up that old friend,
she warned you of her fears.

Morgan 10-12-2010 06:34 PM


Poised


A painted sky in autumn,
lasting all the way to June,
With broken implications darling,
you're sadly out of tune.
Masochistic criticism,
spilling slowly from your mind.
No one blames you sweetheart,
'cause peace is hard to find.
So stumble, stumble through the world.
Don't speak out, look pretty,
do as you're instructed,
You twisted little girl.
