Fire of Life

Sitting in Ms. Walsh's classroom, with nothing to do, I wrote this poem/ songs.
It is inspired by "Into The Night" by Santana.
This song was "gnawing" at me for a while, so with some free time, I decided to put my thoughts into words. =]

You can pull the devil
Right out of me
Or push me closer
To your worst fear
It all depends on you
And your behavior.

When darkness comes to light
All will end that night,
As we all show
Our true selves,
Leaving the facades of mask behind.

We shall dance
‘till the brink of light
Dance, dance, dance
‘till the end of time.
Step in as two,
Step out as one
But only one can live
In this dancing fire of life.

The little devil in all of us
Some are overwhelmed
Others are not,
But ask yourself,
Are you strong enough?
Then dance and
Help me
Pull the devil out into the night.

CURSE

I have a skill
that some would call a gift
I call it a curse
Too many times it has come upon me at the wrong time
although I used it to help protect others.

I have a gift
that is not what it seems
because it is a curse
I am no longer who you think I am.
because this power is not really my own.

I have a curse
the blood that flows through my veins
and is mixed with a substance not of this world:
the transformation of a teenager to a demon.
the hideous strength.

I have a secret
I hid this deep inside me to protect you
but nothing can be hid forever.
your words stung and open wounds that still kill me inside.
"no... You're a demon! all this time you were lying to me!"
your words stabbed deeply through my heart.
and when I tried to tell you the truth
I was no longer me.

you who cared in the moments of my sorrow
turned away when you saw me
as a demon.
now i prowl in the darkness.
waiting for any who try to hurt you.
hoping you would wonder why you are so safe
when your life was forfeit the first time i met you.
that I can do: cheat fate for you.
keep you alive a little longer.
be your unknown bodyguard.
My attempt at redeemtion
which will be ever unknown.
that is my inner demon.

this is my skill.
this is my bane.
this is my gift.
this is my curse.my life.

Caught in Your Web of Words

I believed every word you said.
I believed you when you said
that you would comfort me when I was depressed,
that you would calm me down when I was angry,
that you would cheer me up when I was feeling doleful,
that you would help me when I needed help,
that you would protect me when I was in danger,
that you would heal me when I was wounded,
that you would wipe away my tears when I cried...

that you would never leave me alone...

that you would love me...

forever and always...

These words became my bible,
my book of faith.

But I stopped believing
when you stopped following your promises...

when you stopped being there for me...

when you stopped loving me...

And I'm in pain,
because I can't let go of your words,
even though you have let go of me...

No More Tears? [only ms. walsh knows what the song is for :p]

I see you
Sad in the corner
Alone to cry
And hold no one but
Yourself.

But I am here to say
Nothing makes my day
Other than to see
you smile...
One more time.

So please, one more time
Just maybe one last time
Don't cry anymore.
Give me a smile
And say,
I love you,
Just like I loved you.
