Sleepless Serenity

Mistakes that this sweet girl makes
Traveled in nightmares she lies awake
Memories she holds like a sweet candy cane
Closer to her soul, one of the real insane

She sleeps silently all balled up in fear
Night after night she cries wishing he was near

Darkened eyes to match the hate inside
Loving the death he brought her as the birds cried
Yellow and pink colors danced in her mind
While black and blue were on the outside

She sleeps silently with no one there
Night after night she wishes they cared

Burnt up skin like a beaten memory gone
Animals so wild, the hurt we are dwelling on
Sacrificed life on a stake to replenish the sins
Even in this game Jesus proved you cant win

She sleeps silently cold and pale white
Night after nights no more shes as dead as a silent night

Author notes

Segment one: question and answer time Authors name:dazedXdesires- Real=Nicole Age:17 Genre of poetry: Varies Collaborations: Varies How many other round contests have you entered: I believe 4 or 5 most didnt make it to an extra round only about 4 or 5 did How often are you on AllPoetry: Constantly who has been your inspiration to write: not who what. My past is my main focus. Random thoughts. Lyrics Your likes: Writting, Singing, New experiences, New people Your dislikes: Cocky poets {sorry, I am not big on the I am better than you stuff}, Judgmental people... not too much more.. sorry Why are you auditioning: I like to let people see who I am. plus I like to read and learn what others are like and this contest seems good for it. Segment two: Describe yourself One of the things that I really like about myself and that I believe makes me semi unique is that I like to hand out advice to others based on the issues in their life. My life has not been the greatest and I know a lot of situations that others seem to be placed in. I like to believe that I can relate on people on a very personal level. I write because I feel it is one of the best ways for me to vent and to clear my head of the disasters that are going on around me. When I get depressed or angry I can sit down and the pen will just stream out stanzas that express me and how I am feeling. Segment three: We challenge you to show us your best POEM ABOVE :D I think that you should ahve it luv instead of love...love seems realistic where as luv is a word used when it isnt realy there

BLACKENED HEART

there's some parts that are hard to understand so if there's any where that you may not understand please just ask.... and if your a godly person thats not suppose to be a stab at god... Its just stating that Jesus was a sacrifice to replenish our sins yet how many people are not converted to that religion? Does that make sense..i'll further explain if you ask

 

Hope you all enjoy it

    thought provoking

    the back-ground is a little hard on the eyes, hun.. aside from that, i must agree with the comments before mine, specifying on rhyme and flow. mine end up breaking up in certain parts at times, whereas this went smoothly all the way to the end, whach was pulled together nicely with

    "She sleeps silently cold and pale white
    Night after nights no more shes as dead as a silent night"

    the two-liners at the end of poems completed with 4 line stanzas always appealed to me personally. ^.^ take care. laterz
