Bleeding Dry Bleeding on the Floor Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1178 | I had lots of poetry on here, but I've changed as a person. I don't want to re-post them. I'm going to start anew. Enjoy. |
Bleeding Dry Bleeding on the Floor Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1178 | Imagine This Is Life Not structured. I wrote it whilst listening to "Breathe Me" by Sia. Listening to the song while reading it might heighten the poem, it might not. I don't know. I can't read it from someone else's point of view. I haven't written in ages, so I might suck. Sorry if I do. Enjoy Imagine This Is Life Imagine His silhouette against the bruised sunrise I have never felt so much hope I’m breaking the ice It’s raining harder on my melting face Washes away my hope into petrol in the gutter And as I stare into your infinity I realise I don’t exist Beauty. This world. The courage and compassion. The honesty and the crunch. Staring wordlessly at a full plate, condemned with convinced self-hate Not much left to say When no one gives a damn To encapsulate you in words Would be to give you my life I lay it down for you You refuse to. I felt alive with you I actually felt born when you whispered you loved me /drunkenly I miss parts out, and trick myself that this is what I’ve always wanted; it’s what I’ve got That I can die happy now Maybe I can just die I have a secret to confess; I don’t wear a seat belt in the car. But only when you drive And I know you keep the fireworks lined up in threes Sometimes I just feel the hope I’d die with you In a burst of flames. Imagine this is you, standing on the edge of the night And the stars are all that’s stopping you from touching the Dead You can remember all the nights you sat up and saved people from making the choice you’ve made Because that’s just the spur of the moment thing Tears are stinging almost as bad as when I realised I’m not going to do it And I’m stuck living here. With you. I look across the water, and in the reflection I can imagine you standing behind me A head taller, your arms on my shoulder And you’re smiling For a sad moment, I can believe it’s true But when I turn, I’m lost without you. All the reasons you convinced them to love themselves some more Are skeletons of leaves that have long since fell Because there’s no one I hate more than myself And I’m running low on people to tell You can’t chose between me or her, and I can’t say I blame you I’m just feeling glad that for once I’m innocent, and not the one hurting you I’ve promised to stop biting my nails but I won’t It stops me from killing And you think I’m joking Inside my head There’s someone pinned against the wall by their delicate throat And there’s a knife drawing blood in the back And the person screams The person is me. Imagine you were free You don’t know the meaning Imagine this was love You don’t know the meaning Imagine you were going to throw it all away Well, aren’t you? Imagine this is as close to infinity as you could imagine. Imagine this is life. |

Bleeding Dry Bleeding on the Floor Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1178 | Another Mundane Monday. - Could I meet you by the printer? Just a little point of re-productive solace And as metal grinds dutifully along metal A landscaped inkjet is spat out; your face Those eyes could never linger lingering still My made up face (mask of lies) is not worthy I look vainly, but without hope, in the car windscreen Your dream girl full of lust and lips and curvy ///does not belong here I give up trying to convince you that you are who I say And I'm so high on the look you gave me two seconds before That I'm in an artificial heaven and I'm tripping over stars And I'm in competition with that scream, {who's the} whore? From those brash, glaring spotlights in which you pretended you showed Those unforgettable words are echoing over and over in my mind /...That's my plan.../ If only your loving looks could kill... but I'm already dead inside |

Bleeding Dry Bleeding on the Floor Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1178 | Nameless Christ; disturbia Fixations fixed on fixtures too tall to reach Standing on my broken toes; I’ve been put back in my place before I still can’t stroke your golden hair I have many privileges to work to yet It’s that lust that keeps me alive And your hair is golden The crowds of broken crying people lie to me You are golden My Angel; paranoia Thousands of their soulless eyes are staring They are barren, soulless, reanimated corpses To warn of my future. What future? And I’m going to ask for repent for my sins Cos I’ve been prescribed a long burn in hell It’s going to be hot, honey Real hot My flame can lick my torture away Do me a favour and set my soul alight My Priest; dementia I almost hate the way my body needs you I’m pathetic and I couldn’t live without Your scathing teeth pressed against my hair God, you feel so good Fizzing blue holy water, it’s going to be a long decline And I’ll explode in your demise My Saviour; hysteria Lying to myself again just to make it through the day I’m afraid to say this is going to be my last sunset Dragging myself on through my pooling confusion I’ve been doing it for months and I’m not even wet Losing the will; the hope; the breath Now you get what you wanted so relish in my death |

Bleeding Dry Bleeding on the Floor Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1178 | Wednesday Afternoon. The wind rushes silently through the bull rushes And the view from up here is stifling The russet brown, gold and green is embracing the drop Scrub and scratches of paths winding down to your town Pools of sapphires melted under the watery sun; harbour As oasis to the trekkers who have made this path so many times before And the silhouettes of the trees stand tall, overlooking, the wrong of the city And the sky is golden. The clouds are racing from the fire You can smell the embers in the air My feet are dangling against the mud; they’re as big as the motorway So many unsuspecting small insignificant lives As large as mine Dashing at 120mph to their destiny Stonewashed walls by the waterfall And we climbed clinging to the damp rope Slipping into each other in the struggle But that’s life When we reached the top; amazing A secret paradise you couldn’t see from the bottom The summer grass sprung under foot And I’ll pick the violet heather between my bitten nails Yank from the roots and pull apart the strands And look up secretively from underneath my lashes You look away across the sky, watching the clouds chasing each other across the crest You were watching? You were. Under the fallen sun, my shadows stretch limitlessly across the land I can feel the breeze on my back And it feels so good to be free; alive That blame is solely on you I love you for it. Breathless in my throat, its burning Anticipation of the climax of my life so far Lost across these moors, staring into the sky I’ve finally found the broken-down bridge And there’s someone waiting I’ve been saved And I won’t let go I promise I won’t let go... |

Bleeding Dry Bleeding on the Floor Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1178 | Another Winter Morning's Dream. Singing and toasting liquid sunshine all bottled up In the back of your innocent broken throat Passing on through levels of a new insecurity In the elevator with all the broken mirror and I gloat; This mystery of anti-space in this riddle of emotionless Science Erasing lines to challenge such a theory Dappled sunlight on hills of emerald dewdrops and, honey Such a thing couldn’t exist in a clinic like me Listening is inspiration; the silence is very becoming The waves are crying cheap sapphires on foam crested fools gold Leaving stains of past mistakes imprinted on those Morons who give themselves to the cause they selfishly hold Is that wet on your cheeks who swore they’d never give a damn? Well even the Saints who say they do nothing but love lie There’s no love for the defeated gimmicks with no money for shade From the burning inescapable summer sun melting Alaska-frosted eyes I could write and weave a blanket to put you on and lose you To the wonders I could draw and astound you with For the flowers that grow tropical forbidden fruit But never on rainy days; are better than any I could give A distant array of Frankincense and embossed wallpaper An expensive future is sure heading my way Blowing bubbles in the dunes wistfully wishing on the wind Shuttlecocks and flower clocks bring you closer to me today Breathing in recycled air but too drunk to care Dusty bookshelves filled with good morals we’ll never use I’m scared of dying and shamefully telling the afterlife – alone Blood spilt and bruised sunsets bathing this rosy-glow abuse Catch stars in your eyelashes and reflect rays in your lens Who else but you can only see love through a photograph? Dog-eared memories of such good times with you Seconds stretch like days in the way I laugh We can turn the page in search of new inspiration And try new kisses up against the bars of your favourite bridge So bring me your beloved chorus and play sticks in the river Watch them float past another learning curve and be attacked by the midges Bring colonies to feed on the lovers and their picnic Don’t worry – the flowers in the broken vase were picked to wilt Umbrellas blowing inside out like the remainder of my sanity Reminders of dancing in the rain on a threadbare quilt Seagulls over wind farms vs. cobbled streets holding hands Friendly eyes sit like strangers’ lies upon these foreign lands All I asked was that you’d love me and we could set free to the bay I’m losing touch, these fears too much, as I slowly slip away My last war cry, I’m clutching to your heart in any way I can I slip on the ice, God I hate this vice; you could never love me as I am. |

Bleeding Dry Bleeding on the Floor Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1178 | 46X Winning over the hearts of run-down wrecks I used to love the lens and the 46X Now I'm keeping the silence because it's very becoming through all this sh.t I'm a firm believer in belief, if only we could find it Walking the thinnest of the regrets I couldn't resist On the verge of extremes so opposite I went for fail and missed Exposed to your hating eyes and my emotions run like ink I've been thrown in this terrifying place where it's okay not to think So I say see you later, and this is good bye Raise a glass to those who live life and learn not to die |
