This dark sea
It consumes me.
It drowns my words,
And makes me freeze.
I’ve forgotten my thoughts.
I’ve become lost.
I’ve drowned to this sea,
My screams gone.
My words are muffled.
My heart has stopped.
My thoughts come to an end,
And I begin to wonder.
What’s happened to me.
Drowned inside this dark dark sea.
A raging bull
Red fiery eyes
Smoked out
Charging at me
It Went for my throat
Silencing my screams.
Punctured my skin
Blood shed, blood clot
Long ago.
That was long ago the day I came and told you I love you so.
Yeah, long ago.
It was long ago.
The day I said I love you more.

But you left me still.
Yes, left me standing here.
As if my love just disappears.

And now before me you stand.
Saying you have lived and learned.
While not comprehending my heart was burned.

But it was long ago.
Yes, long ago.
And like you I have lived and learned.
I want to know
why I'm afraid

was this choice
a mistake I made?

or was this brave
and necessary?

sometimes good things
can be scary

I don't know
where I am going

there is terror
in not knowing

all I know is
I am here

courage feels the same as fear
Demons go up to me suddenly talking nonsense,i am like God is this real? He nods and says revelation apocalypse, so i kneel and ask for strength to hold on to the throne because i know when people hear this, demons won't leave me alone.Heaven is my home to me for earth i'm just a guest, i'm suggesting suicide for them they don't know Jesus bled, too much blood shed they fed believers with torment, i use my phone i call my lord not simply because i'm not bored but its because i did my chores, and i'm not a woman of war. It's a spiritual battle they channel me with words,but birds give me strengh and wisdom so i kick them to the curb. Do not disturb me with your deals because my truth is real, you could **** or torture me but my life will be chill,until the day i rise my poetry will be something just like an offering at church. I'm thankful God gave me this blessing.
just felt like writing what was on my mind and something powerful so heres this .
Let us pretend
That we were nothing
But some casual affair
2 AM ***** dystopia
Just another night
To forget

Let us pretend
That years of silence
Can somehow bend
White lies into
Truth

Let us pretend
For burying regrets
Seems all there's
Left to do
We should be pros by now...
we use words
to communicate
words spread love
as well as hate

to lift you up
there's a fair amount
to bring you back down
if you get too proud

words when we need
to make a point
hoping that we can
knowing that we won't

words with hidden meanings
show our inner feelings
words that we imply
in our daily dealings

words are here to say
what some struggle to display
words we use for greetings
before you’re told to go away

when it comes to words
we cannot ignore
just what they do
and what we use them for
Here we are
       this and now  
          never turn your heart away !
Hear the song
that comes out strong
                then sweet ...
pure upon your lips of red

Birds of paradise
              fly high
           as they soar towards
                         the sun !

Here we are
                you and I
                        living for the other
                            as if we'll never die !
You return, though you know:
your glances toward the world
are bloodless.
Just as empty—your dreams,
too ashamed to be dreamed.

You are close enough
to resurrect silence,
to strip the world of shadows.
Your thoughts wander
along the same worn paths;
tears flow
against the current of sorrow.

I am too lost to believe
in longing.
Perhaps tomorrow
will bring at least one memory.

The venomous present
will turn into
an unfinished autobiography.
Perhaps God will teach us
to wait—slowly.

A night will bloom within us,
a night no one dares
to name aloud.
I become a body
awaiting a prelude to freedom.
