Three Poems

A few poems that I've collected over the years (3-4 years ago.)
Many of them are anomynous/used an alias, and I can't seem to track them down anymore.
Yeah.. they're kind of gloomy and teenage angst and what not. But they're also very pretty/interesting.
Enjoy =)

"Silent Music"
The young girl sat upon the stool,
Gazing at the marble.
As her finger touched the key, she flinched.
It was cold.

Wind blew through the room -
- Whistling quietly inside its chambers.
As if this was a call to her,
she began to play.

Absorbed by the rhythm, she closed her eyes.
Swaying from side to side,
her hands creating a magical fusion with the keys.
Nothing could seperate them.

The silent breeze blew the dust away,
it spread into the air, floating into the dark
as were her thoughts
when she played this piano.

The piano had not been cared for.
Scratched, damaged, left to crumble in the room.
Just like the girl.
And together they sat, bathing in the music.

One could not live without the other,
Their sound only created through harmony.
For once the piano felt loved,
and the girl felt compassion for it.

All the night she stayed
sat upon that stool.
The sounds of the world joined them,
weaving into their immense sound.

The piano began to feel the strain
of being uncared for.
Without a sound its strings broke,
and silence filled the room.

Silver tears hit the ground,
as the girl lay underneath the piano.
And there she stayed, until the day
she too played her last note.


"A-Z Poem"
Always doing something wrong
Banishing those who don't belong
Catastrophe started under the moon
Death is sure to come very soon
Evil lurks in every corner
For every death there is a mourner
Gold and riches are the focus
Happiness is a bunch of hocus pocus
Intimitidation is the key
Joy fills it when we are free
Klutzy people are at every turn
Love is what we all yearn
Magic is shunned by many of us
Normally we think it right to cuss
Optimistic people are very uncommon
Prejudice is found in avergae to shaman(:P)
Questions need answers
Resources should destroy cancers
Sex is all the people think about
They are taking the wrong route
Unheard and unloved
Valiant hardly lift a glove
War is getting this world shakin
X-treme measures will be taken
Youthfulness and peace is what we need
Zonky idea,yes,but without it we'll bleed


"Crows and Ravens"
There stands a raven so clear,
Its black feathers shining,
The sun sets with blood red dips,
As the hounds start whining,
Singing their lullaby,
Dreadful escape,
Snow driven mountains,
Bats and shadows await,
High in the stone clenched,
Mountains lie a castle,
There you hear chains sing,
Without any hassle,
They cling and screech with the crows rhythm,
Giving ears no word,
For their song brings tears and such depression,
Whenever it is heard,
And beneath the sea lies open freedom,
It tricks us to deny,
And though we are crows entangled in chains,
We know one day well fly,
Flying above the forest,
Soaring over the hills,
High above the mountains,
Were the air send us chills,
Freedom awaits no other,
It stands merely atop a ledge,
To let us go or not,
Is yet a mortals pledge,
Tricks and pranks they are,
Showing us nothing but doubt,
But one day I hope to kill them,
With my scream, my shout,
Ill show them all what I can be,
And what I can do,
These words arent just speaking for me,
They are speaking for you to,
And soon enough the crows will die,
The ravens they will to,
Nothing here as the world decays,
Never to live through,
And yet there will be a time,
When immortals rule this earth,
All mortals died and gone to heaven,
This has given us rebirth,
And o youll see the vampires laugh,
The werewolves howl at the moon,
And red eyes in the shadows,
All happen very soon,
The water will be water again,
The sun will be so gray,
The moon will rule over all,
And the pain will go away,
Well be brothers and sisters,
Lovers that too,
A world for all acceptation,
And it all awaits you,
So come and hear the morning birds,
Sing their song of new,
For there it lies glistening,
One of its few,
And so now I look upon,
The sun setting what it may lack,
For there high above a raven flies,
In its mouth a rose the color black.


"Apocalypse"
By: R. Vates
Energy....Stuck in a moment in the past,
The present, now and always.
Forever one with the universe...
The universe torn in two pieces.
And never again will it shine.
The words fall from broken lips,
The mouth trembles with anticipation.
Waiting, and seeing behind the blades of
infinity. Only in our lifetime.
Running backwards fowards,
Skipping stones in an endless stream...Life.
Following the rythm of earth,
We seek what we can never know.
Higher it pulls us into the nothingness of
mankind.
Our own destruction we have created.
Filling the air with darkness, and it drips
So slowly now.
The earth trembles, and our bones are weak.
Never again may we remember what never was.
Further into the ground...
Digging for words of past civilizations...
Never again.
Seeking truth,
But believing the lies.
What is hidden from us,
Is what we were before.
Washing the brain,
With sounds of structure and chaos.
Together as one, yet never united.
Tying up our thoughts with myths and lore.
Fiction never seemed so real.
Now we sit quiet,
Almost waiting for the end to come.
A weary spirit comes from deep within,
It pours out it's sadness to the earth.
Fields of laughter,
From the children who will never know.
Discussion, remembrance,
And what the future holds,
It is all to bright for human eyes.
When the sun comes closer,
Bringing with it secrets, and promises.
Complete fulfillment.
One more time around,
One more day to live.
Everything matters when nothing does.
