_{In this digital screen
Is a picture of your face
You look so pretty and happy
Forever and always

I click the arrow over
And the camera shows a slide
It’s you and me together
But also that other guy

He always made me angry
I never liked him around
I screamed and fought with you
Which only brought us down

The photo changes again
But this time only us
We’re holding hands together
In the park out by the bus

I remember that night clearly
And the picture changed once more
It was like it was yesterday
That I found you on the floor

I screamed out your name
And tried to find my phone
But my hands were shaking badly
And I felt completely alone

The picture on the screen
Was of your grave
There were flowers and were people
And the memories in my brain

How could I not see
That you were never truly smiling
And that all along it was
Your hurt that you were piling

Maybe it was that guy
Or maybe it was me
Or maybe it was your job;
Perhaps your family

I glare into the screen
As a recording comes up
For the way I feel right now
Surely is enough

Your camera shows just me
And for I don’t have a clue
that as I look away
you whisper I love you}

Ciel - Light and Dark

Where were you when our hearts divided? You said we’d always be united! You were my breath into my mouth The name I use to shout But in your eyes is blood Your sins over-flood I struggle just to breathe My skin tears beneath your teeth I am your everlasting victim Your DNA runs throughout my system My body is completely yours But this is what I endure You’re the enigma in my life Continuing to thrust the knife I am dying with apathy eyes I’ve been filled with filthy lies For I am your entity Your incessant chemistry Bound by the lies in your veins My existence is trapped in chains But to you…I am your light I&rsq

I Know

I know what you really think of me I know you want me gone I know whenever my mouth opens you cringe I know you think I’m stupid I know you wish I would die I know people hate me I know I’m really stupid I know I don’t get you I know you don’t get me I know you wish we really never met And I’m sorry...

Crayon Soulmates

Dear Stars, I have a bone to pick with you. You see, when I was six, I called myself the nowhere girl... and I coloured myself a soulmate. I made him on crumpled sheets, with broken pieces of crayon, on a playground that was too busy wondering whether growing up entailed stealing their mother's cigarettes and their father's dirty magazines (I suppose I was already wise enough to know that growing up meant choosing one of the many ways of breaking yourself in two.) I hope you remember him, stars...he was important to me (My best friend threw that drawing away on my seventh birthday and told me that someone like me was not supposed to have su

I tried

I tried to count my scars, But I couldn't tell Where one began And another ended. So I tried to count the cuts, But I couldn't, because Blood smeared across my skin, Connecting them like a thin, Red veil of pain. And so I cried. I cried a single tear, because When I need to cry, I can't. Finally, I sat down, And put pen to paper, Or fingers to keys. And tried to write my emotions. But I couldn't, because I don't know how to tell the world What I feel like, When I have no right. I looked from the blood stained tissues, Across my torn body, Into my own eyes, reflected perfectly by the mirror before me. Another tear was p

The Girl Who Was Afraid To Be

She speaks to me fondly of passions and talents, of guitars and stars, with such breathless intensity then stops short and apologises for speaking at all. All because somewhere in her life, someone she loved broke her heart by ignoring her beautiful words and telling her to shut up, keep it down, nobody cares. People aren’t born sad. We make them that way.

My Worst Ememy

I can't stand her, The girl in the mirror. She's me, but not me. She's the girl the world sees, Happy and always laughing, Always kind and polite, As friendly as she needs to be. That's not me. I'm sad and feel like crying, Kind to only the people I know and like Faking friendliness to strangers when I have to. I can't stand her, The girl in the mirror. She's annoying with all she pretends to be. I want to be someone else. I'm tired of the constant fights with her, She always wins. So I take it out on her when I'm alone, And no one can stop me. I'm my own worst enemy, You see. Mentally beating myself up, At first, Try

Anorexia

'You're so skinny!' 'You don't need to lose weight!' 'You look great!' Lies…all lies. I know the truth. Too many pounds here, too many there. Hips, stomach, butt… I want it all gone. I need it to be gone. Eat less, exercise more…it's such a simple problem to fix. So I eat when I need to. Doesn't even need to be everyday. It's usually something small. Carrots, celery, a handful of nuts…It's just enough to get me through the day. You want to know my daily routine? Fine. I run a few miles everyday. It took some time to get used to it, but I had to adjust to reach my goal. No one else knows I do it. I wake in the wee h

Odd times

Things aren't always what they seem Take the dice and shake it twice Come on come on Let life roll to pieces It may seem odd But you are strange Time ticks to the sound of my heart As you wave your goodbyes Forever the sun was in your eyes It may seem odd But you are strange Please take my heart as you take my hand Don't pick the dice up Cause this ain't a gamble Just one blow and we're gone It may seem odd But you are strange Take a wink and a kiss I guess this is goodbye

She Talks With Monsters

This girl never had a fear of monsters. She allowed them to rest on the insides of her eyelids, the crook of her neck, the empty spaces of her chest cavity. She had no fear, there were much scarier things in this world than darkness, clawing at her back. Living for the night she etched her dreams upon the bars of her cage whispering of centuries past because she truly missed the sun, grass on her back. Frosty Decembers have her forgetting what it feels like to love, but she knows who she is— she doesn't need the taste of cigarette ash suffocating her inside her own flesh. November skies tore open this night, ripping a hole i

Raoul's Death

All Christine could do was stand there, watching in horror as her beloved fiancé and demented tutour locked blades. She couldn't live with another grave before her. She just couldn't. In no time, Raoul was at the Phantom's mercy. He pleaded, oh how he pleaded, but to no effect. The Phantom plunged his blade through him, and kept doing it over and over again. Christine could glimpse a river of scarlett spraying on Erik's face. Now it truly was distorted. Every emotion she had felt before left her. She was left limp, pale, dead. Tears, very warm tears, trickled down her cheeks, but she couldn't feel them. She had nothing left to

I once was a galaxy~ A Poem

I once was a galaxy, But then I fell from the sky, I landed on the ground, And I tried not to cry Everybody laughed, When they saw me they would scream, They said I was an alien, And a girl caught in her dreams A few Fridays later, There were no stars in my hair, There were no nebulas in my eyes, But I couldn't really care But one fateful day, Someone saw through my lies, They saw me through a telescope, Suddenly galaxies were in my eyes From that day forward, I never gave in, I would reach for the stars, And be the best galaxy I've ever been

Ocean

My home is a warm sea Of darting rainbow scales, Bright lights And pearly laughter. My father sent me to a cold ocean Of iron blue and slate grey, Sharp claws And brooding silence. "Find yourself in the emptiness, In the bleak, roaring surf, Daughter, And then return." I fell in love with a cold ocean, Traded my blood for salt, My bones For sand and seaweed.

_{Hmm, well, I am not sure how I feel about this poem o.o
Pretty much you're not suppose to know too much about the characters. After all, you're hearing it from a guys point of view. You don't even know if he is dating her, how close he was with her, or nothing. It's pretty much is about a guy who was with/liked a girl and once she died he got a hold of her camera.
o.o But I hope you like it.

I dunno where I even got the idea to write something like this xD}
