Gothicchildren05• Show poetry

This account is designed for me ( Vanessa ) and my husband ( Matt ). I got this account a while ago, as you all can see but my husband decided to write some poetry for this account as well. I'm 22 and my husband is 25. We've been together for 5 years and we wouldn't trade anything that we have for the world, despite what other people say and think and as it is we just recently got married. We have two adorable boys...one is 4 and the other one is 9 months. We love to listen to rock music, but at times when we want to relax, we listen to either oldies or soft rock. We mostly stay at home with our boys, but when we get the chance to get out, we like to go to pool halls to play pool, watch movies, go bowling and browse around the mall.
If you want to get to know us some more, or see some pics of us and our son, then visit us at our myspace pages. My page is www.myspace.com/gothicchildren and my husband's page is www.myspace.com/emopatch

Poetry to Us:
It's giving a visual image of our bottled up emotions put into words, letting other poet's see how we feel about different situations in today's world. Our feelings must not stay within our soul, for it can cause a tragic discomfort.

Why I ( Vanessa ) Write:
The reason why I write is to release some bottled up emotions that seems trapped within me. Most of my poetry just comes right out onto the paper from my mind and soul, as if I'm not even thinking of what I'm going to say next. I used to write alot of personal pieces, but I have grown to love writing what comes to my mind. Some of the pieces that I do are still a little personal, but not as much as they used to be.

Why I ( Matt ) Write:
The reason for why I write and pen out my muse is so that I can get out the emotional stresses that I have. I do have alot of agony within my heart, mind and soul, but when I write, I know that I'm able to get what I feel off of my chest without someone saying something against it. I have come to learn that the people here on AP are not just strangers, but are friends with simalar situations.

Creed:
In America -
Only in America
We're slaves to be free
Only in America we kill the unborn
To make ends meet
Only in America
Sexuality is democracy
Only in America we stamp our god

What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America
What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America, In America, In America

Church bell's ringing
Pass the plate around
The choir is singing
As their leader falls to the ground
Please mister prophet man
Tell me which way to go
I gave my last dollar
Can I still come to your show

What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America
What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America, In America, In America, In America

I am right and you are wrong
I am right and you are wrong
I am right and you are wrong
No one's right and no one's wrong
In America, In America, In America, In America

What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America, In America

What is right or wrong
I don't know who to believe in
My soul sings a different song
In America, In America,
What is right for you and me?
In America

Pity For A Dime -
An artificial season
Covered by summer rain
Losing all my reason
Cause there's nothing left to blame
Shadows paint the sidewalk
A living picture in a frame
See the sea of people
All their faces look the same

So I sat down for awhile
Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime

Plain talk can be the easy way
Signs of losing my faith
Losing my faith
Plain talk can be the easy way
Signs of losing my faith
Losing my faith

So I sat down for awhile
Yeah, Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Yeah, Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
So I sat down for awhile
Yeah, Forcing a smile
In a state of self-denial
Yeah, Is it worthwhile
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime
Sell my pity for a dime
Yeah, Just one dime

Evanescence:
My Immortal -
I'm so tired of being here
suppressed by all of my childish fears
and if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Because your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
when you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
But now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

Bring Me To Life -
how can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core
where i've become so numb without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become

now that i know what i'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life

wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become
bring me to life

frozen inside without your touch without your love darling only you are the life among the dead

all this time i can't believe i couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
i've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life

wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become
bring me to life
