Serenity

Trembling slightly, I walked toward her light
Those blue flaming stars which had shown so bright
With beautiful, quivering, silver wings
With a soft timid voice, her shattered heart sings

"Run away fast" it cries in a tune
"For I will just scare you away very soon"
But with her voice, how could I leave?
She is the miracle that I beleive

I know of the sorrow that lies in her song
For she has been suffering for far too long
She's been torn and tattered, beaten and used
Like a poor helpless animal, she's been abused

I beg to come closer, I beg her to let me
I beg her to stay here and never forget me
With her solace which I seek,
I shall take a step and speak

"Hush now darling, you shall be
Forever without pain, you see
Please don't stray your eyes from me
I'll free you from this misery"

I listen to the sound of sadness
I hear her drowning in her madness
Just a glance, and I can tell
That she's been stuck in a circular hell

Her worn-out soul grew up too fast
It flies within a broken past
And I could swear she is worthwhile
If only I could see a smile

I beg to come closer, I beg her to let me
I beg her to stay here and never forget me
With her solace which I seek,
I shall take a step and speak

"Hush now darling, you shall be
Forever without pain, you see
Please don't stray your eyes from me
I'll bring you to serenity"

Author notes

September 12, 2007.... This is about my girlfriend. She's beautiful, but she's had the worst past of anyone I know. She's been hurt over and over again and she's frightened the same will happen with me. I wrote this to let her know that I'll never ever hurt her and she doesn't have to be afraid.

    Gee I know that felling I've also been hurt over and over by my family and ex if you like friends. found it best to cut them out completely. It's taken me 5 years to see my partners not going to hurt me.

    Your poem is very beautiful and supportive I hope she sees that you won't hurt her but healing does take some time.

    all the best in my contest and thank you for entering

    Great poem!

    You are seriously a gifted writer, and you're only 16 years old? That's awesome! I'm 15 and I can't even write as good as you but I love writing anyways. You're a really good writer and in this piece of poetry, I couldn't stop myself from wanting to read more. I hope you continue to write and grow into an even better writer. Very good work.

    I must say i was challenged to continue reading this wonderful piece. At first i could only relate to the group name as if u were staring at someone freaked out n telling him that u know what he's been through.... u know like staring at ppl just to freak them out... but it turned outso true that it really amazedmeto c how much u two are connected...u managed to express her through u...

    "Hush now darling, you shall be
    Forever without pain, you see
    Please don't stray your eyes from me
    I'll bring you to serenity"

    AMZINGly done
    keep on feeling....
    u had a slip on believe in the 2nd stanza, last line. lol

    This was so beatiful and so powerful.
    Your dedication to your friend is as wonderful as your heart.
    She should consider herself lucky to have a friend like you.
    I hope she finds redemption and love through you, as you help to convince her that you want to help.
    Let her read this, she will understand.
    Take care to the both of you.
    Keep smiling even though it hurts.
    Love and Light.

    A poem I relate too

    By the time i met my girlfriend, 7 years ago, I was afraid of letting anyone close, I didn't trust myself or even believe anymore. Her patience and love won through!
    ever happiness to both of you!!

    beautiful

    im actually at a loss for words, that is so beauitful, im sure she loved or will love it. its really sweet. im actually crying. because ive been hurt to, and my one boyfriend basically told me the same, that he would never hurt me, and that i didnt have to be afriad, and then he told me to cut myself and bleed to death, and that he would kill me, and then he hit me. but in no means do i think that you will ever do that to her. its quite odvious in this write, about how mucb you care for her. and i just wish that i had had someone like that. this is truely beauitful, shes very lucky to have you.

    This is an awesome write, I love the imagery it creates and I only stumbled on the flow a couple of times. But this comes from the heart and that's what matters. the spot I am talking about though :
    With her solace which I seek,
    I shall take a step and speak

    I kind of had to stop and re-say it in my head for both times it came up, other than that I am sorry to hear she experienced such a past and I hope she pulls through. My deepest sympathies.
