I said last night that I would post the rest of my short stack of poems when I got home, but it was uber late. I am posting them now though. The next three I wrote for my creative writing class. They each come from different ideas. The first two (Alone in Her Vacant Eyes and Behind the Broken Walls of My Heart) are in no way related to me personally. They are snippets I've taken from some of my writing and thought it would make a really good poem for class. The last one (No Tears to Shed) is directly with my feelings on a fight I had with my dad and it is what I plan on giving him when I move out...:unsure:...I just don't know what that is going to be anymore. Anywho! Here is the second one:

The tears run down my face
As I hold back the sob.
I don’t want to shed these tiny rain drops
That fall from my eyes.
All I want to do
Is slip under the warm confines of my sheets
And drift into a world
Where everything is right.

I bite my lip,
Feeling as your hand
Places soft circles upon my back.
I turn my head and face away,
Not wanting you to see these tears.

My heart drops thirteen stories,
Down into the watery hole
Where my stomach should be.
My heart doesn’t return to the surface,
It never stops falling.

The sob escapes my lips,
Sending tidal waves of emotion through my body.
I pull away from your touch,
Grasping at my own body as if I were a small child
Holding their favorite toy for dear life.

A soft gasp escapes your lips,
And you touch my arm.
I pull away from your soft touch,
As if it was fire against my skin.
I bite my lower lip
And look at the bruise you had just touched.

I turn to face you,
My body no longer hidden by the soft bubbles in the water.
Yet you look only at my eyes,
Worry written all over your face.

This one is sad too! *sniffles* But in a good way, very well done...this was my favorite stanza:

That's a long way for someone's heart to drop (figuratively speaking), aww, you can really feel her hopelessness and loss in that part. Was the girl in the poem abused?

Actually...the girl in Alone in Her Vacant Eyes was abused...this one was cheated on...and during the fight that ensued between one of her brothes and her ex and she got hit in the process...hence the bruise....

Ah, ok, the other poem makes a lot more sense now. :cry: That's too bad she got hurt...go her brother for coming to her defense though! ^_^

You want to laugh? The girl is Alexis Cavanaugh...her brothe is Adam...and her ex is Jeff. *giggles* It's from the old plotline from the Cavanaugh that's in my BSB fansite website which is an archive now....we remade Cavanaugh so that Siberia could be a BSB Fansite only and Cavanaugh be an RPG site only....but yeah....weird huh? how the plot just changed?
