Shattered

This was not meant to be a rhyming poem. Some of the phrases just ended up that way.
Shattered
An endless state to which I cannot wake.
The blackest void which I cannot escape.
Darkness comes and takes control
My life lay shattered upon the floor.
I know not this place
Yet familiar it seems,
With untold stories
And forgotten dreams.
It reveals my nightmares
And crushes my hope,
Destroying what's left
Of my broken soul
Storm(not as good as my last one)
How many days does it take?
How many nights are sleepless?
When you hear them, you lose faith.
The thunder and flash,
The restless sea,
And pitch black clouds
With a promise of pitch black dreams.
The wind begins to howl,
The rain begins to fall,
The chill sets in,
And darkness surounds all.
Your faith has not failed,
The clouds are cast aside,
The sun was waiting,
The earth is alive.
Gift From the Gods
Hooves, heavy brething, the sounds of stone.
Horse, strongly built, running along the pebbles.
Man, kind faced and proud.
Stop.
The snow melts slowly,
The river, no longer frozen.
Horse hooves ripple the water.
Listen.
Gifts from the gods surround him,
Animal, plants, rocks, water.
The river reflection is not his own,
He resembles a gift from the gods.
Look.
They look like you too.
Sick
You make me sick.
You break up with your girlfriend
And blame this girl.
She had nothing but respect for you
And you let her down.
She was forced to break up with her boyfriend,
And you tell her, he doesn't care.
Do you know she's anorexic?
Do you know she has depression issues?
She's had thoughts of suicide,
Cuts herself badly too.
If you knew all that,
Why?
You made her cry,
And made her want to die.
I hope you're happy.
My Uncle’s Kitten
Soft baby fur,
Long skinny tail,
Cute fur covered ears,
Long twitchy whiskers,
And big round and sweet eyes.
Chasing bugs up the walls,
Getting tangled in string,
Drinking milk,
Playing with toys,
Hiding under the bed,
And….
Opening doors?!
That’s one talented kitten!
Nosebleed!
Once,
Twice,
Five times,
Ten times.
In the car,
In the pool,
Out for soccer,
At my new school,
On hot days,
And before that too.
Sent to the office,
Removing clots,
Gross!
Nasty!
Disgusting!
Went to the hospital once,
Got a vein cauterized,
That was that.
.....
Once,
Twice...
Here we go again!
Passion
I have a passion for the Asian culture.
I know more about their landscape,
Than I know about my home.
I care more about their history
Than I do about mine.
I've fallen in love with the languages
And will soon take a class for one.
But most of all,
Their music helped set my dream
To learn many, many languages.
I guess my passion
Has turned to obsession.
In the Sky
I look to the skys
With tears in my eyes
I wish I could go there
And see sights so rare.
I want to race with a comet
I want to circle a planet.
I'd risk everything to jump and sing
Why not risk dancing on Saturn's ring?
I want to touch a wandering star
And wonder how it got this far.
I want to drift through space
Wearing a smiling face.
But I want you to see.
So come to space with me.
This is more important to me than all the rest
Float with me on this quest.
Dreams and wishes, that's what these are
They're hard to catch, like falling stars.
But I'll risk it all and learn to fly,
'Cause my heart, mind, and soul are in the sky!
