I would've been.

by *Forgotten-Reaper, Sep 18, 2012, 2:52:56 PM
Literature / Poetry / Spiritual / Free Verse

I would've been a masterpiece if it wasn't for the tear,

I don't know why I tell you this, it's not like you care.

I would've been a legend if it wasn't for the time,

Age of heroes has come and gone, all I can do now is rhyme.

I would've made something of myself, if I'd had the motivation,

But now, I just lie in wait, awaiting even more degradation.

I could've been someone, or something, I know I could,

But right now, it's all talk, all "Could, should, would."

Then there's that "if" or that "but" getting in the way,

I could've been a masterpiece, but here I am, rotting away.

No one even gives me a second glance,

I'm not a famous one like Rembrandt's.

I could've been a masterpiece if it wasn't for the tear,

If only the people looking after me had taken more care,

I could've been perfect, and remembered forever,

But now I am just a portrait, of the Forgotten Reaper.

My portrait <3

Back Into ItBack Into It
31-12-12

I wrote it out of you this morning,
The urge to die,
But now it plagues me.

As the time ticks towards the year’s passing,
I wonder how much more my mind can handle –
How many more issues will institutionalise me?

I can hear your voice,
Telling me to think of the ones left behind,
But in the moment of such pain
There is nobody but me.

Pain sends its sharpened, icy fingers through my heart again,
As I remember him, both of them,
And I realise that I will start the year as I ended it;
Alone.

I wrote you out of it this morning,
But I am writing myself right back into it.

MistressOh fair maiden, doth sent thee thine ember gold yonder
onwards through the brittle twilight,
as the morrow, struck forth from amaranth sunrise
shines down to the divine brethren, that is
His servant's cries coming near.
Bear thee, oh bear thee, with thine wondrous love for
A distant traveler thus held back
For his being was lost in the cataclysmic abyss
That bears out to the trembling sorrow
Oh fair maiden, doth sent thee thine ember gold yonder

Cycle& I find that there is not much that is poetry left in me.
The streets curl asphalt fingers around me &
I feel nothing, not the hot touch of june, not autumn
or loneliness sliding rough hands down my spine, I
feel nothing, though there is blood on my arms, & it
is not mine, it is the mosquito's, the mosquito i crushed
because it was whining, because it was making
the same directionless keen as me.

Girl in BlackShe needs to cry so she can feel,
She has to bleed to make it real,
She wants to hurt so they can see,
She needs to die to be set free.

The tears are spilling from her eyes,
The knife is marking her demise,
The blade is slicing through the air,
But their hearts are empty, life's unfair.

Her life is gone, her tears turn cold,
Frozen on her cheeks, they hold,
Her hollowed eyes reflect despair,
For world to see but do they care?

The blood still flows and the skin's still warm,
But the heart's not beating, the life is torn,
Rain fall like tears on the girl in black,
Too late, she's gone, she won't come back.

The Little French Rose.There was a woman you never knew,
She was so small she lived inside a shoe.
Although she was small she was as nice as they come,
She was small and beautiful, like a rosebud will become.
She was fragile for her size, or so they say,
But she got on with her life anyway.
She didn't have much, nor did she ask for it.
The Little French Rose had all she needed.The Little French Rose. by *Forgotten-Reaper

Belief.I do not believe in God, and things I cannot see,
I didn't believe in love until I looked into your eyes,
I never did believe, that someone could love me,
But when I look at you I see through your disguise.
I see a sad woman that needs a hero,
When others see someone strong and solitary.
I see someone that loves their hero,
Someone who is sad and lonely.
Silently with a smile always was your style,
But I promise you that you can speak to me.
Because when you're sad, I'll be there all the while.
For your hero loves you, and wants you to be happy.Belief. by *Forgotten-Reaper

Humble Mediocrity.I see the truth in your web of lies,
It's hard to see when you use your eyes.
Problem is, I'm a liar too.
I knew exactly where to look for you.

You're living one of your lies,
As you watch through the eyes,
Of humble mediocrity.
I'm here because someone has heard your plea.

You look at me and you scream for help,
Whilst saying nothing at all and not wanting to tell.
But that's not why I came,
I'm here because of what I became.

I came because I know what you can do,
Because I was once someone just like you.
I was once like you, living a lie.
Which is why I'm here - to silence your cry.

I came because you are a danger to me,
As you watch through your humble mediocrity.
Takes one to know one and I like my privacy,
So please forgive me because I am sorry.

As I look into your dead eyes,
With the potential to see through my lies.
I killed you for you saw my grand life as it really is

Armageddon.Yes, I still want you.
But do I still need you?
I need you like fire thirsts for water,
I need you like a cactus craves the sun.
I need you like a bird needs its wings clipped,
I need you as penance for all I have done.

Yet I still want you,
When your eyes are purgatory itself.
There is no passion in that fire,
But I want that simple burning hatred.
I need you like a child needs to plunge its hand into fire,
And yet you still glint and catch my eye and I want you.

I want you and need you,
Like I want and need the world to end.
You are my armageddon,
And your name is Jennifer.Armageddon. by *Forgotten-Reaper
