Danger

Danger

Year by year the danger grows
It twists and entwines
It writhes and squirms
I breathe it in
It makes me feel alive
I can not stop
The danger consumes me
Through my veins
Through my mind
And when each day is done
The danger never dies
It is always there
Waiting for the next day
And for days to come
Until the day I die

As always, a great poem. And nice and short to read. Very good.

Fading trust

I don�t know
I don�t even try to
I just want you to see who I am
All my life I have tried to be someone
Someone who is not me
It fights back like a cornered wolf
No matter how hard I fight
It fights harder
No matter what I say
The words just melt into thin air
If only you could see
If only you could hear
Trust
Trust is what holds us together
That tight bond
Now the bond is weakening
Loosening all reason for which I do not understand
How can I pull you back the way we were before?
I must know
I must, before I fall into that deep dark hole again
With no way out
I need you now more than ever
I will never forget you if you leave me
Your song will always sing in my mind

Alone.

I am lost
I am lonely
I am crying out for someone
No one will answer
Why won�t they answer?
Does anyone care?
Do they want to care?

I dream of greatness
Of things I will never be
Yet I dream
Then I wake
Reality comes flooding back

I am still alone
Without love
But this time I have faith in my heart
I am not alone
I am free!

Good as always, but don’t double post XD Bad Phill! *Fwaps Phill*

Good poems Phill~ Full of emotion and it’s easy for people to relate to. Keep it up! =D

I keep on thinking
What if I were famous?
What if I were a legend?
Would you love me more or less?

I struggle through my life
Digging, crawling my way on
Looking for that light
The light is hope
But I only see gray clouds
Rolling plumes of sullenness
Never breaking for the sun

I need the feel of your warmth
Your affection
Your love
I need it more than life itself
If only just this once
To feel your heart
To go without words
Without reason

I’ve lost all but hope
I’ve fought the battles
Many I have lost
Yet I remain
Here with you
And here I will stay
Forever

Great poem Phill~ I have often thought about the questions that you asked in your poem so it’s good to see you doing so in that poem. Well done! ^_^

In the deep recesses of my mind I run
In my own little world
It is all I can do
All I can see

I hear music as I run
The music is all
Deeper I go
Without rest
Miles I travel

On
On
On

And on until all is over
The world changes as I run
With every stride
Every breath

I see the end
Yet the end is always far
Always out of reach
For there is no real end in my world
Only illusions of an ending

In my world
You would love it here
The freedom
The excitement
It is what I live for
What I strive for
The meaning of everything

Everything has a meaning
Some things you just can not explain
They just happen

I will share this world
So you can see what I see
And when you see it
You may never want to leave

wow… i really liked the last poem you posted there, pappy. The rythm in the end of it goes perfectly well. I am so proud… I have a pappy who can write poetry! yay! ^_^

Good poem Phill~ Like Ann said the rhyming in the poem is perfect even if the poem does seem maybe a bit too long. Keep it up! ^_^

Good, as always, good flow. Keep it up.

Ok this one has a little more rhyming in it.

Lying on the green grass
I listen to the world around me
It sounds like endless a symphony
Never ending
Never fading

Lying on the green grass
I see the people walking by
Some even stop to say �hi�
Always smiling
Always laughing

Lying on the green grass
I feel the earth vibrating with life
Struggling though fear and strife
In this wide world we live in
Ever since time began
Ever since we first walked these lands

Life goes on
And on it will go
Until the end comes
When will that be?
We may never really know.

Great poem Phill~ It really makes you think about the world we live in. I thought the poem could do with more rhyming but oh well.. ^_~

Inner Darkness

From the dark of night
To the light of day
The tears fall down
Never ending tears
Why am I crying?
What brought me to the state?
The only answer lies within
But it must be reached
The more I reach, the farther it goes
The farther it goes, the harder it gets
I know I must fight it
These demons inside me
Eating me from the inside
I must fight it
I must
Before the world falls into eternal darkness
Before the evil takes hold of all that is good
Evil is dark, and light is its enemy
So, the way is there
Somewhere
Somehow
The end will come
The only question is: What will the end be?

Like always, great poem Phill~ I know a lot of people can relate to the themes in the poem and you write on the matter so well. Keep it up! ^_^

Wow, I really like the second poem you’ve just posted. Strong, and emotionally charged. Reminds me of all those films where the hero has to leave his love interest behind because he can’t give her what she needs…

Great work Phill. Keep it up buddy.

Well, here we go, I’m running out of things to say. Your poems are always excellent and of high quality. And the same applies to these two.

This last poem is not bad by any stretch of the imagination. However, I like the previous poems in this thread a lot better. They flow wonderfully, whereas this last one feels a little forced. That said, it is a good poem. I like this part in particular.

Lights fading
Thoughts changing
Never stopping on a whim</I>
