    this thread is my collaborative of pieces that i have composed. i hope you enjoy them. i intend to update this frequently so stay tuned. and please excuse any typos. edit of you wish and please give feedback and suggestions.

    this first one i post has no title, yet.



    A war fades away in my head
    I see a picture painted somewhere
    Its there on the back of my eyelids
    Its there whenever I close my eyes
    A time when all we do is look at ourselves
    Is a time when we should've said "We're better of dead"
    Not a tear could be shed
    Years go by as we drive
    The headlights watch us grow
    If I had two lives I would watch the people who watched me die
    If clouds were always gray
    I'm sure god would give us gives to stop ourselves.....stop ourselves from committing suicide
    Heartbroken souls give us grief
    In knee deep depression making us give forsaken confession
    A forest full of a timely admiration locked inside the mind of humanity
    Pine needles....or just evergreen needyness
    Stairways of blissful meaning, missleading they are
    Signs of scars prensent bars of compressed dilapidation
    This feeling I can't stand
    Fires burn even after we put them out
    Silver lining from a banshee's shout coats the edges of our fingers
    Boats tip over because we want more out of the water
    All it does is make us thirsty....by thirty we drink everything but that.

    Some of us watch
    Some of us do something about it
    If we ever figure out what life means
    I hope I'm the last to know.

    Nice job, some lines seemed a bit too long and messed with the flow a bit, but overall it was quite good. Your writing style i like but this piece seemed to be a bit everywhere, keep writing, you have potential, keep it up. B)

    i think you have great vision and that can make a person into a great writer.

    however, you have to be more focused in a subject matter to make it more readable.

    power storming is great for getting ideas down but by concentrating on a few, you can develop these ideas into wonderful pieces of poetry.

    keep writing cause you vision is good and i am looking forward to seeing more from you.

    thank you fallenangel and David for commenting on my piece.

    here is another i have called "Pictures in a Broken Frame"


    i look for answers in a dusty box called memory
    all i see is the past that haunted me
    the dark place i pleaded for mercy in is gone
    screams from my home go on and on
    colors from a source i know isn't the sky turn to rust
    it gets hard to live when there is no one to trust
    it feels like planets collided when you loose yourself
    when everything is dead you don't wanna be anybody else
    emotions to a person that is invisible won't be heard
    not even a syllable from my mouth will make a word
    all the thoughts in my head are pictures in a broken frame
    they were meant to be but never given a name
