My head is completely blank
Completely dark
Completely blank
Completely uncertain
Completely lost

I feel so lost and misplaced
Where can I fit in?
Where do I really belong?
Shannon Rose Feb 2015
Temple be sure and Temple be swollen
Temple be nimble Temple be sacred

Temple teach me love
Temple tear me down
Temple show me light
Temple bring me down
Temple sell my eyes
Temple bleed my veins
Temple Temple hear my screech
Temple sink me

Temple drink me
Temple shrink me
Temple blink me
Massacre my faith Temple release me
Flood me
Temple oh Temple
My heart is beneath me
My ego is growing. I want to be less about me and my conscious. I want to be less of my soft feeling and more of the massive touch of something bigger.

I trust in the calls of the fallen.

They are the ones who landed
on the cold ground;
I wish I could have shown them
the big blue ocean
that had lay not too far away.

It's crippling to see people,
even when in agony and despair,
sleep through it all.
How do they even handle it?
Is it hard to wake up from it?
Do they ever wish for an escape?

Like many of the near-fallen,
I lay in the sullen shadows
It's not a very healthy place, I know,
but I suppose no one is in perfect harmony.
If I could find an easier life to live, I would;
To dispose of this body, however,
would defeat my purpose in this world.

I trust in the calls of the fallen.

She's inside of me
And I want her out
My guilt is floating past
Like troubled ghosts on Earth
The past intertwines with my brain,
Twisting apart my limbic system
Truth is, life ***** --
Pain is more than pleasure,
My incessant memories overlook happiness...
My forks in the road all carry my signature.

I wish I had indecisive tattooed
And inverted across my forehead
So I could look in the mirror
And be able to understand my decisions.

One stares at another,
Imagines the life they could lead
With adventures and smiles
Sunrises and tea!
Winking, secret memories
One looks, then turns away, but eyes met and wondered
Of who they are and would come to be
Common- such fantasies.
Life goes down one spiral in time
Lives on the dream of multiple lives.
Will they come to be?
All the possibilities.
Though, they continue to dream,
Maybe it wasn't destiny.
A story that never unfolded,
People that pass and don't notice,
Kids that run and don't care,
One left out thinks, 'man life's unfair
...So uncertain.'

Terrified. I'm terrified,
Of the future,
Of what it holds for me.
It's torture,
To sit here and endure this.
My mind claws,
At the many possibilities.
My mind crawls,
Slowly like a small baby,
Through them.
The shelves of books,
All containing my fears, my hopes,
Tower above my weary looks.
How am I supposed to live?
Shall I be a creative artist?
Maybe a musician?
A grand guitarist?
Am I good enough?
Good enough to reach my goals?
Am I able to succeed?
Or will success slip from my hands like milk from cracked bowls?
Never fear,
For I will try.
Though I must worry,
And sometimes cry.
My heart clenches,
With my every fear,
I brace myself carefully,
Readied for the next year.
I'm not certain of the date this was written, but I know it was sometime in the month/week that my first year of high school began. I'd been thinking of the future and it had made me begin worrying.
Thus, I vented through poetry.

I am in love sunrises I have never
seen, with people,
unacquainted, in cities
unvisited.

Unfamiliar roads, pave paths to
Uncertainty.
Do not deny the moonlight,
reminder of yearning.
Homesick,
for a time never lived in, a place non existent,
unknown.

Rudely,
unacquainted.
I am in love with the person
I still have yet to
become.
Michael Amery Nov 2014
I don't know how to love you
Yet love beats within my heart.

I cannot stay with you
Yet I cannot leave

Why do you not ask me to
Speaks volumes that you do not want to hear.

As E.E. Cummings said
'Yours are the poems I do not write'

Only because I have already spoken every word which begged to be said.
Megan Rue Nov 2014
I cant
do anything
against
this
this fear.

Under everything
that appears ordinary
is the worry
is this fear.

What I want out of life
seems too hard to achieve
and even the thought of trying
is swallowed up
in this fear.

Others success
their joys and triumphs
in contrast to my lack,
just add fuel
to this fear.

This uncertainty.

Will I be able to make it?
or was I not created
to succeed?
That this is all I am
is this fear.
