Happy Birthday
by darranthegreat
From me to you
A gift from the heart
A poem for you
Where do I start?
Youre irritating, annoying,
A pain in the ass
Relax! I was just joking
Youre a great friend to have
Your laugh and your smile
Makes you different from the rest
You can run way more than a mile
Without a break to catch your breath
I know this isnt a lot
Compared to a hundred roses
But on a second thought
You might prefer this to folds and creases
So here it is,
A poem just for you
May all your wishes and dreams come true
Happy birthday to you!
I don't know what happened,
I can't seem to explain.
These wounds of mine have deepened,
And I'm in so much pain.
So much time has passed,
And i am getting weary.
I don't know how long more i can last,
This life is driving me crazy.
I want to run away,
Find some place to rest.
I need to find a way,
To escape this craziness.
I'm lying here on the floor,
The perfect sky is torn.
I can't take this anymore,
I'm going, going, gone.
Why can't we be more? by darranthegreat, literature

Why can't we be more?
All these feelings inside of me
I can never let them go
Without you all i'm going to be
Is a very lonely soul
I tried to tell you how i felt
But you wouldn't hear me out
You told me there was someone else
And i wanted to cry out loud
You told me we were friends, just friends
Nothing more
And i knew we were friends, just friends
But i've always wanted more
Friends, just friends
Nothing more
Friends just friends,
Why can't we be more?
I am now dry
no emotion to show
tired of this life
and taking every blow
it's taken my all
to get where I am today
and yet that's all it needd
to change my world gray
I've run out
of needle and thread
I can no longer stitch
the wounds that have bled
My heart's so complex
not JUST worries and cares
if you can't find the door
'climb in through the tears
it's taken a toll
as the years have gone by
I'm a wondering soul
who doesn't know how to fly
So will you take the challenge
to stitch up these things
will you be my Angel
and help me, be my wings
I think back to those I once had,
The people I once knew,
I was there for them,
But I never got a second glance.
And I begin to wondr,
Are my friends really there for me?
Do they honestly care?
Do they even want me here?
I struggle with my thoughts,
They are my daily troubles,
I try to be everyones friend,
But I feel as if they do not want me.
I live in fear of annoying people
My insecurity controls me,
But my good mood is always there,
It's there to hide my insecurity,
My lack of confidence.
I begin to wonder if you see right through me,
If you see the way I really am,
It seems so obvious to me,
So surely you must?

Missing in the Back of Class
The kid who sat in front of me in class was really quiet today. It's weird, because we usually talk a lot when we're both actually here at the same time. It was a weird day, because it seemed like everyone was in class. Like, all the seats were taken and that hardly ever happens. And when everyone's here, it's never really quiet at all. See, I go to a D.C. public high school, which, if you live anywhere around here, you'd know that we have an incredibly high absence rate. And even when there's like half the kids than normal in class, it's never quiet. I mean, sometimes I think you learn more not going to my school than when you actual

My Broken Heart
My broken heart
Will let you know
The feelings that I
Fear to show
When I look in your eyes
All I can see
Is a love I know
Will never be
I cared for you
More that you percieved
Because you came too close
And you were decieved
For a chain is wrapped
Around my heart
To help prevent
Any further part
But all it did
Was keep you away
When all I ever wanted
Was for you to stay
