Kat's Collection of Poetry

Cathexis · **Tue Apr 27, 2004 12:42 am More Poetry...**

Hey people! I'm feelin' left outta the loop! someone come over here and read my poetry....! I'm gettin' restless....there's over 4000 members here, why is it that none of them are posting??!! well, not "none" but, quite a few...

I have a poem:

UNTITLED, for the present...

Listen to the sirens, focus on voices screaming,
Souls are soaring through the air and on a river streaming...
We have no other duties, no other pressing plans,
But to lie among the stars, and dream of leaving this land...

Feel the searing crimson knife; see a girl fall into death,
Even she has lost her maternal right, to feel her baby's breath...
Still we have no duties, no other pressing plans,
And yet we sit at home and drift away, from what we cannot withstand...

More TO COME.....shortly!

Here's a love poem!

In Love

By: (ME)

I never dreamed of finding a love so kind and pure.
No one could show me, no one could know me, and yet I found the cure.
She looks at me with two deep eyes,
And her love distresses, and wholly caresses, all their broken lies.
I never dreamed of finding a soul that belongs with mine.
No one could show me, no one could know me, and yet God showed me the sign.
She smiles at me with two crimson lips,
And her laugh fights back, with caring attack, and the world is but an eclipse.

More to come...in the works...hope u like it...

Some brand new poems, plus I'll be posting (I Am) The Silent Myst, Save Me, and My Friend (Stay Strong)....and I may post a poem or two that I already posted before cuz I'm too lazy to go back and check-sry!

First:

Spoken
I spoke to her today,
The one I see so often.
I spoke to her in reverie,
As I did, her features began to soften.
The world is full of fools,
I said.
Full of folly and risk.
Why did you choose to change,
I asked.
Your life was not a fisc.
I spoke to her today,
The one I call myself.
I spoke to her in cautious tones,
And said,"Dear, just be yourself."
The world is full of misery,
I said.
Full of sorrow and shattered dreams.
Why did you choose to play this role,
What end will meet your screams?

Revived
It took a beating,
To heart and mind and friend.
For me to come to see,
What became of us in the end.

We were not happy,
Not cheerful or witty or golden.
But once I went away,
My heart was quick to embolden.

They took me by my soul,
Showed me who I had come to be,
And so I paid my toll.
I vowed against insanity.

Torn by my own wickedness,
I turned to playing a part.
They held the mirror up to me,
To reveal this wicked art.

And I was reborn,
Revived and sound.
I found the one I call myself.
I have been renewed.

Wordless
They came to me so easily,
Like eau along a stream...
They came to me so flawlessly,
But now my thoughts are empty,
Like many a forgotten dream...
For the first time,
I am wordless.
Nothing seems to suit me.
They came to me so acceptably,
As love flows from child to mother...
But now I stand without them,
Not a word, a letter, or other.
Let me be empty,
And weightless...
That in time,
I shall restore my thoughts.
I shall make up for all that I lack.
Tonight, I may be wordless.
Tonight, I may be silent.

(I Am) The Silent Myst
Yearning, breezing, burning, freezing,
The Silent Myst, I surge in peace.

Thieving, vying, breathing, dying,
The Silent Myst, I kill with calm.

Adoring, seething, censoring, deceiving,
The Silent Myst, I laugh in odium.

Weeping, advising, creeping, aspiring,
The Silent Myst, I learn with ease.

True To Thyself (Onward)
Dancing across the clouds of redemption,
I fear the height of a downfall beneath me.
And still, still I tread onward.

Walking across the thin ice of my dreams,
I fear the cold waters of reality beneath me.
And still I tread onward.

Lying across the thick meadow of peace,
I fear the flame of betrayal above me.
And still I tread onward.

Screaming across the vast plains of deception,
I fear the echo of my voice surrounding me.
And onward, still, I tread.

Save Me
Save me from the depths of my soul...
Immortalize my breath and take hold...
Let no one interfere, though they creep near...
Save me from my own sin's wake...
It is all I can do to stay awake...
Take my flesh, leave no heart...
As my body will soon melt apart...
Let no one interfere, though they are already here...
Save me from this hell-bound life...
Baptize me with the Crimson Knife...
Awaken me to the world of darkness...
'Tis where I belong, under the bowels of Loch Ness...
Sharpen my senses, sculpt my flesh...
Make me stronger than Gilgamesh...
For all of this, I shall return to you...
My blood and honor, and all within thereto...

Questions? Comments? Feedback of any kind??

Angeldust · **Tue Nov 23, 2004 1:29 am**

Like it. It is a bit dark, don't you think? Why is poetry always dark? Mine is too.

Curtis · **Tue Nov 23, 2004 8:02 am**

It was great. I'm not much into poetry myself (that was my weak point in high school english

), but it was great. Keep up the good work.

Micteth-Son of Udas · **Tue Nov 23, 2004 5:32 pm**

nice work, i have some of my work in the "dairy" topic.

Cathexis · **Sat Nov 27, 2004 12:14 am**

Dairy? *stifles her laughter* I think you meant diary...well that's great! I'll have to go check it out...

Angel? Save Me is the only "dark" one out of those I posted above...the others are lighter...except maybe for True To Thyself....

Angeldust · **Sat Nov 27, 2004 10:04 am**

Okay. Sure. To me they are all kinda... oh, forget it. They're wonderful Kat. Just wonderful.

Cathexis · **Fri Dec 17, 2004 4:15 pm**

Gee thankies Angel....lol I know what you meant....I just wrote this:

The Quiet Place

No where is there another place as cold & dim as this,
There is no other rendezvous;
And I am merely a Whisper,
Prowling in the quiet place.

She heard my voice and wept for me,
She felt dreadfully ashamed;

�Tis cold and dark, and tiresome,� I whispered through the darkness.

She found my still, pale body,
Stolen by the Verity Seekers,
And how She wept for years,
To know I am gone forever.

No longer am I who I was,
And She thinks I am gone forever-
Stolen by the Verity,
On a bleak October eve.

The lifelessness is unbearable;
They will not slay My soul.
This Earth has been unforgivable,
And I am a forsaken entity.

No where is there another place,
As desolate as My grave;
Yet no flight has been exposed�
And She knows I am gone forever.

I once look upon the skies,
In those days, Respite was close-knit friend;
But now it is too late for relief, for reprieve;
She knows I am gone evermore.

The barrenness is insufferable;
They will not slay My heart.
They mean to keep me in this place-
They intend to keep Us apart.

This Earth has been deplorable,
And I am a forsaken remnant;
A relic among relics,
To be mourned among the others.
To be trampled on by passersby,
Whom I cannot give my Gift.

And She knows I am gone forever.
My Love is gone as well,
Yet remains bizarrely intact.
And though I am but an echo,
Her Soul is mine, I�ve seen the sign;
And the Earth has gone to Hell.

What can I do?
An echo is powerless�
Stolen by the Verity-
I was a cold blooded villain;
Then, now, and always a villain�

But They stole me via the Verity,
The protestant villagers and kin.
They took my Life and stripped my Soul-
No more am I able to breathe�

And yet I remain somehow alive,
A whisper,
An echo�
And they are damned to stop me-
For I am what comes from punishment;
The one who haunts the Insane�

I am a fearful whisper,
I creep through the foolish minds,
And taint the innocent thoughts.
I am whom your children fear,
In the night when they should be asleep.

She knows I am gone forever,
But she is mistaken, dear child, mistaken�
I drive the most sound ones to madness, child!
I am-
Insanity.

They took my life,
I shall steal their reason,
Dead and buried, I lie in peace-
But none can ever seek me�
In death, I gained immortality�
And now it is my turn to thieve.

I am the Sanity Stealer�
The ceaseless Lover awaits me�
She aches to surrender what is mine.

Though She believes I am gone forever,
Come my Child, it is Time.
