Okay, I wrote a poem for a contest on Allpoetry.com and I'm in the middle of writing another poem for another contest. Tell me what you think. If you're here to just bash it, then you can go to another topic. I don't feel like putting up with it. So unless you're going to say something useful don't say anything to trash it. ~My Cross~ (Finished)
Passion of my cross
a symbol of my dedication
What He did remains with me
everything He does for me
unworthy of His grace and power
He went on that cross and died
for me, a simple human
I forget His name
and act like He's not watching me
but the truth is He sees
and never forgets me
I wear it on my back
carrying my own cross
I follow Him
It's the least I can do
I put Him up on His own
A Judas of my time
as I betray Him again and again
but when I repent
He's sure to forgive
My visual remind of who He is
and what He did
the sting will hurt
but I'll think of Him
my cross is is simple and small
His was long and painful
and with it He saved me
~Walls Of Addiction~(Finished. Will Edit though)
You made a wall
when you first stated
you didn't know where it would go
but now each time you do it
you lay another brick
too soon it ended up being a wall
no one can climb over it
as soon as they get to the top
you lay another brick down
and they fall off your wall
you've blocked them from everything
and everyone, lost in your own world
but it's only a matter of time
before the wall crashes down
and crushes you
Okay, I decided to change a line in "My Cross" I'm also adding another poem that's in progress.
~Secrets and Regrets~
Secrets so dark they can't be revealed
regrets that you so deeply
you try and try to go back in time
only to fail because you know you can't
They're trapped inside your mind
haunting you and hurting you
you can't make them go away
so you've learned to live with them
and you're unable to break free
There's nothing for you to do
you just can't break through
this pain continues to destroy you
and you can't let it go
It's always in your mind playing
your past mistakes won't leave you alone
everything you could have done right
everything you did do wrong
and how it all fell to the ground
trying to revive it is usless
it can never be done over
your past mistakes are set
and you can't fix them
you remind yourself and won't forget
but try to remember the past is the past
thinking about it can't do anything
you can only try to improve your future
you can't get anywhere from here
Like a prisoner in a cell you're trapped
you can't get out you don't have the key
but you have done more time than you needed
and the cell's left open for you to walk through
you're stuck in the dark
