The Soul Of My Lullaby

Listen as the my heartbeat breaks
Can you hear it?

They no longer call

Ignore me, it's easy you see
Just another nonsense thought


The itsy-bitsy spider
  Climbed up in babies bed
Spreading out the cobwebs
And drowning out his head
Out came the sun
  And blinded as he bled
And the itsy-bitsy spider
Left the baby dead


Breath in, oh did the pretty girl speak
Nope just the whipsers of the wind
Blowing through your hollow soul

it's a figmnet of darkness
no it's not really there
Leave me go, yes watch me bleed


Hush, little baby, please don't cry.
  it's not your fault you had to die

I'll drown you in my crystal meth tears
so your screams no one hears

Just push away and stop your plees
  they'll never bring mommy to her knees

Listen to the music while the light shines bright
close your eyes and do what's right

Gun shots and roses will set you free
  your the burden set upon mommy

Mommy won't cry, and your wounds won't heal
but don't you worry, you weren't real


what was that, oh nevermind
insanity was what claimed you
call out my name, let me soar
or have you lost it

will I haunt you
so don't you go and forget me now

...because...
...I...
...won't...
...let...
...you...


Twinkle, twinkle, little star
  bringing back my bloody scars
Up above the world so high
drowning out my final cry
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
  bleeding out from what you are


what are those tears
they can't be xXshedXx for me
no, no they only fall for you

.
WHY'D
.
I
.
DIE
.


.let me go!.
.
.you can't do that!.
.
.i'm a part of you.
.
.i can feel you.
.
.i am you!.


Rain rain, go away
  I think the image is here to stay
I feel the heat of the fire so
My screaming mind is blank to go


inhale, the insatity
..salvation..no you can't have it!..
let me go!
let me bleed!

i could have been all you wanted
but no changes left the for the weak
take me down, when i'm not even looking


Rock-a-bye baby, in the tree top
The wind broke down, the branch that you rock
The cradle fell down, and you smothered in smoke
  And down came the baby, withered and broke

ethonal thoughts
and alcohol dreams
/hold/ me/ in/
the smoke gagging me
i can/ not/ breath
i can/ not/ think

i'm gone, can you see me
i don't think so, you never could
you'll never hear me, you'll never see
you'll never get to know who you left

././.behind././.

Now I'm finally lain to sleep
  Forevermore my soul you'll keep
Killing me, feeding on my cry
I hope the guilt, makes you die

    Wow!

    Incredibly creative and with alot of dark emotions. You really kept me interested and hungry through the whole poem. Intense from the very beginning! Thank you for the interesting read.
    As for the subject, I'm not against abortion :I I think everyone should have the right to choose it themselves. But that's just my opinion.

    AMAZING

    this is way interesting. you kept my attention throughout the poem. i like how u you used different lines from children songs. very unique indeed. a lot of dark emotions set into innocent childrens songs..

    As for the actual message of the poem. I agree with what you are saying. abortion i do not believe in and this is really true about it. Very good write. You captured how truly cruel it is to kill and innocent little baby, who could grow up to be such a wonderful person..

    BRAVO!
    good luck in the contest..

    Love:

    "The itsy-bitsy spider
    Climbed up in babies bed
    Spreading out the cobwebs
    And drowning out his head
    Out came the sun
    And blinded as he bled
    And the itsy-bitsy spider
    Left the baby dead"

    -So twisted! Creative, clever.

    I'm not one for weird accentuations, as said in rules, but I like what you've done.

    Really this was cool.


    'Luck to you.

    Actually at first I have to say I was absolutely terrified before I realized your point was about abortion which I figured out a few lines later. This is a very good piece and a very smart way of going about a poem. I like how you used lullabies not matter how creeped out I was by it. It effected me and that was what it was supposed to do, was it not? Your word choice is very good. Fantastic really - a lot of emotionally connotative words. Thank you actually writing at least 100 lines. I'm getting really tired of telling people that they have not. Thanks for entering and best wishes!

      Thank you, the 100 hundred line thing isn't so hard, I don't see why people conplain! i hve to admit, it made me laugh when you said it absolutly terrifed you at first, because thats what abortion is like to me.

      Best of wishes judging!

        Haha. I didn't think I was asking much with 100 lines and then people one right after another keep submitting pieces with like 40-50 lines. It's so frustrating!
        Yeah at first I was didn't know where your poem was going and I was terrified actually. Lol. I have a little girl turning 2 tomorrow, so that was probably what made me a little creeped out.

          Well thats cute, but most of my poems seem to creep people out anyway, even when I'm not heading in that direction, I guess it's just my word choice.
