Dateranoth Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 Where do I place my faith, in a world in such despair.I'm left in a spinning circle, with nowhere to go.I wish to keep in touch with a life left without repair.I can only keep moving on, with comfort in what I know.Life will lead me out, just as it led me in.I can only guess the outcome, and never know the end.I'll make it through the struggle that started from within.I don't know where I'm going, but have the knowledge of where I've been.I feel the pull of temptation, and I can't help but to relent.The mistakes I've made today I will pay for with regret.I can only hope my salvation lies in my ability to repent.Though, life is a hard road, I know my path is never set.To the end of it all I will travel, with searching eyes.And only at the last moment of it all will I say my goodbyes.

Dateranoth Posted May 27, 2011 Author Share Posted May 27, 2011 Quietly into forever I gaze.Left with nothing but shame for all I've done wrong.Nothing can correct my past mistakes.And nothing will ever leave me whole.My only shining light is the one that I love.And I can only hope her wings are enough to carry,the weight of my tormented soul to heaven.Heaven that waits so patiently above.

Dateranoth Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 I did play a bard in Everquest back in the day. With little poem tidbits that where in with the spell/song macros. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 Forgetting that forever is just a dream,we are quickly awoken by the reality of death.We cannot hide from the cold fingers of the earth,and can only return from that which we came.However, we can cling to the hope that is life.Embracing all we have and remembering what is lost.It is our choice alone to decide how we live,and a judge of character in how much we give.

Dateranoth Posted December 3, 2011 Author Share Posted December 3, 2011 Without question I follow her each day.She is what drives me and what makes me stay.Without her I am but a passing glance.A blip on this earth, but shadow and chance.I become lost in her gaze,And i am stuck on her smile.She changed me from such wretched ways.But I can only have her for such a short while.Life does not offer me enough time.So I am left with nothing but hope.Hope that a simple rhyme,Will resonate through the ages, And forever keep her mine.

Dateranoth Posted December 3, 2011 Author Share Posted December 3, 2011 I'm lost in such a crushing sadness.I have reverted into my own shell.The feeling that overwhelms me is madness, and I fear I am spiraling into the depths of hell.What release is there from this torment!?What comfort is there in this life?With a simple glance I know what is meant,she is the one I love, the one I made my wife.In her I find my comfort, and my solace and my life.But without her I am undefinedLeft with nothing but my strife.I need to be strong for all her needs,but I fear for this worlds greed.Is it truly possible to love?With such weight bearing down from above?

Dateranoth Posted December 3, 2011 Author Share Posted December 3, 2011 Thanks for looking Em. I don't mind if you don't like it. Poetry tends to have that love/hate effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eminutia Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 There's one thing about life, and that is that nothing is constant. One day you will hate something you actually need to survive the next day. Maybe somebody needs your poetry to survive, and that may be the reason you wrote it. Who knows.

Dateranoth Posted July 26, 2012 Author Share Posted July 26, 2012 I'm just a person in a world full of people.But I'm lost in the crowd.I once believed in a higher power in a steeple,but now I am not so simply wowed.I'm left to depend on only myself,but there are others to help me outI live tormented without moral wealth,and only can live in self doubt.I fail her with every passing day,but without her I will truly lose my way.

Dateranoth Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 I'm left with another promise of a better day,But the truth of reality lies in my way.Friends keep me from crashing on the shore,and she keeps me from leaping out the door.

Avahra Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I find stuff like that all the time.I had to do a project in my junior English class. It was "to take our favorite poem and rewrite it"I nearly failed because they didn't think I had rewritten what I had.I'll find it and post i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dateranoth Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 I am so entirely lost.How long must I continue to try?What do the toils of life cost?How long must I ask why?In my mind I see the end.But I never know where to begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dateranoth Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 Ashes are all that are left in my hand,as tears flow down my face.What would this world demand?I can't figure out the lines to trace.I am left with the feeling of remorse,but deep down I really know the source.I have lost my ability to feel,and I fear I don't know what is real.

Dateranoth Posted December 3, 2012 Author Share Posted December 3, 2012 Lost in nothing, I am found by everyone.Look to your right and left.Do you see someone you love? Anyone?Does the feeling leave you feeling bereft?Hopefully it leaves you feeling braver.Because we only have one life to waiver.Give it your best and enjoy what you can.Don't give your soul over to the damned.Love with all your might.And always put up a fight.
