Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time
I saw a light
No it was not God
Calling from above
No it was not the Sun
Glaring from the sky
No it wasn’t a light
Hanging up above

It was a flashlight
Burning into my eye
Seeing if my pupils would dilate
They did not
My eyelid had been peeled back
And I was lying on the ground

But how I wish it was God
Calling me home
To take away the throbbing in my head
And the lack of it in my chest

I smelled of smoke
And many other things
That shouldn’t be in your body
Stains of vomit
And of Gin
Blemished my shirt and pants
Like the violations against me
Marked my skin and mind

Oh how I wanted to run
Hide so far away
Where I wouldn’t remember the night
When God almost did
Take me Home

***

I had been drinking that night
So much of it filled me
Made my eyes blur
And my words slur

I tumbled to a fro
With ruddy laughs
Echoing in my ears
I laughed along too
For a reason unknown to me
My clothes were torn
And so was my mind
But I could not bare
To turn home now

I wanted to go
Even though I would be scolded
I didn’t care
Not one bit
But I didn’t want to receive the
Repercussions
But how I wished I had known
That the ones tonight
Would be worse
Than any I could have ever imagined

A smoke here
A touch there
An occasional sniff
And the frequent fist
Loud music blared
It was so loud!
It must have blinded my mind

I could not feel them touch me
Because I knew
I couldn’t be touched
Even with their hands on me
Nope
Not one thing.

I could not feel my body dying
Because I knew
I couldn’t die
Even with deaths hand on me
Nope
Not one thing

A clout on the head
A hand on my cheek
Nothing at all.
When I said no
It didn’t matter
When I wanted no more
It didn’t matter

Soon my body failed
It gave up way before I wanted to
The lights and the sights
Were too much for it
And I fell to the ground

I felt myself heave
My stomach churn
And my body got rid of
What it didn’t want around

I lurched again
The foul smell now on my clothes
And in my hair
How I wanted to run

Then I drifted.
It was so dark
So quiet
It was a wonderful peace
My head did not hurt
And my body did not ache
My nose did not burn
And my mind did not spin

I wanted to stay here forever

But like a hand pulling me up by my neck
Like so many times before
I was ripped from the ground of
Such bliss
And forced into the waking world

A light! I saw a light!
What an accursed light
It stung my eye

But the voice.
It was a kind voice
It wafted over me
And made me want to curl up in it
To never see another thing

It was her!
My darling friend!
She had come for me!
She had come to take me home!

Then strong arms pulled me from the
Hard
Unforgiving
Ground.

The warmth filled me to the brim
And his wondrous words
Melted on me
Another comrade of mine
He had come for me!

I buried my face in his chest
And he did not flinch away
Even though
Blood
Vomit
Tears
Alcohol
Were smeared across my face.

He only ran his hand over my dingy hair
And she kissed my disgusting face.

They took me away
Spirited me from the hell I purposely came to
They told my parents
Parents of only a child
That I was staying at their house
And that was were I had been
The entire time

They nursed me back to health
And they held me when I cried
When I wanted to give up
They listened to me
When I curse their name
The listened to me
When I needed to talk
They listened to me

I told them
I was done
I had been raped
Yes I said it
Raped
A child grew in me
And was lost in me
In less than three months
To a enraged fist

I had drank so much
It would have killed a man twice my size
I had forced things up my nose and vein
That shouldn’t have been there
And I swallowed so many pills
I could have run my own drug store

I had been beaten
I had been used
I had been sick
And I had been miserable

I had seen death
I had seen loss
And
I had seen enough

The stole me away
Away from my shadows
They took me to my meetings
And kept the hauntings at bay
They held me down
When I tried to tried to give up
And revert to my old ways

They held me when I shook
They held me when I shivered
They held back my hair
When my stomach tried to empty itself of nothing
They comforted me when I cried
And when I scream
They were there
Even minute of their day

I didn’t ask them to do this
No
I would have never done that
They didn’t it all on their own
They spent every moment they would with me
And never let me feel alone
They did it because they loved me
And wanted to be there for me
Even though I did nothing for them as of late
They still cared

Now I’m okay
It was hard
And it took years
But…
I live my life
Without my demons
And without their ways

I excel at school like I never have before
I excel at life like I never have before
And I can truly say to my mom
When she asks me how my day was
That it was a good day

I can like never before
Love
Laugh
Live
Learn

And because of those angels from heaven
Those two I call my friends
I can now tell this story with a
Once Upon A Time

Comments: This is a poem I made thinking of my friends and that recently I haven't been telling my friends just how much I appreciate them. From little things to big things, I just plain suck as a friend. So I wrote this to convey to them what they mean to me. Yes, it is a bit...well its a bit dark at first and there are a bunch of controversial things that might be a bit mature, but other than that I think its a good poem that you would share with your friends to show them that every friend is an angel.

Deviation Title:Accursed One
Categories:Lietrature, Poems, General Poems
File:

Accursed One

Fear beyond words, like a gripping hand,
Tears at my body, at my very bones.
My knees tremble; I can no longer stand.
I wont allow myself to scream; instead, I moan.

Pleading will do me no good, my fates been sealed.
Begging is a sign of cowardice, so I'll be brave.
I can't believe this is true; it's just too real.
Lead me out in the open to my grave.

Drag me without mercy, into the pouring rain.
Bind my hands in rope, shackle my feet.
With this heavy water, my blood wont stain.
Fling me--like trash--out into the street.

Angry, violent people shout poisoned words.
Priests chant prayers and hold up crosses,
Fear filled eyes only stare, fearing a curse.
I am not one of them; there is no loss.

I am cursed, I am hated.
Stones hit my face, knock out a few teeth.
Flesh torn, my bones instigated.
I deserve to burn and seeth.

My only right is this rain,. which dampens any fire.
But instead I know drowning will be my pyre.

Wrenched from the ground like a bad child.
I can only watch as men undress me,
helpless to being defiled.

Rocks shower my face, blood pours from the wounds.
Dragged up a staircase to the middle of the town.
My death will be quick and soon.
And Heaven itself wont frown.

Hard hands hold me, blocking any escape.
As the priest ascends to read.
Holy words wont help me in my state.
There is nothing more I need.

"This woman has done the devil's work,
Despite her lies about flowers and herbs.
Demons surround her soul, in the mirk,
Witnesses have seen, ears have heard."

No, I want to yell at him.
I love the Lord and do his bidding.
I am guilty of no such sin.
But this I know, is a game I wont be winning.

"Hert beauty is the work of Satan,
Her kindness and generosity an act.
She is a dark and dangerous maiden,
These are true words, all real facts."

No, I want to shout at the sky,
I am only a simple medicine girl.
The rain disguises the tears I cry,
As my doomed Fate uncurls.

“Demon spawn! Devil's child!
Accursed one! Viper's bile!”

"Isabella Smith, you have been accused of witchcraft.
May God have mercy upon your soul."

Hoisted up by the same hands, I am exposed.
To all their lies and venom.
I picture instead, the beauty of a rose.
and how I used to mend them.

Icy water stings my legs, my back,
As I'm lowered into the barrel.
My shoulders are tightly grasped,
And the faces of the town never looked so feral.

"To Hell with you, witch!"

I don’t scream as my head is lowered,
Nor do I struggle when I’m out of air.
I lean up against the wood, knowing I can only go forward,
I’m dying; I’m nearly there.

They were all wrong, I say inside,
Afraid of knowledge and change.
Blaming me was easy to decide,
Minds can be so wickedly deranged.

Surrendering is so easy; silence is all around,
Blackness is so sweet; falling without a sound.

Up, up, flying like a winged bird,
I am blessed; never was I cursed.

The priest was right: I have been shown mercy.

Comments: I was inspired to write this(in the dead of night might I add) after I finished reading Witch Child, a novel about all of the witch hunts that proved false, leading to the deaths of so many innocents. The words came to me, and it flowed so nicely, I wanted to share it with people, thus my posting.

Vampire Lover

A hunter of the night and I am your prey,
Your hypnotic gaze on my own, making me sweat and sway.

Blood stained lips, white pointed fangs,
It only took a moment, I felt the slightest pang.
Of your bite, your feast,
Without spite, you are no beast.

How could loving anyone be a taboo?
Morals have shades of grey, no true wrong or right.
And I have abandoned all I knew,
To become the mate of eternal night.

Take me to your secret hiding place,
Where we can watch the sunrise, undisturbed
Place your hand on my face,
And tell me your mine to serve.

Keep me yours, keep me near,
Love my heart, love my soul.
Protect me and I’ll show no fear,
Embrace me to keep out the cold.

Trace your fingers over my lips.
Dance with me, caress my hips.

Pour crimson in my mouth, your blood,
I’ll learn to love that red flood.

It’s a myth, we are not damned.
They only lie, it’s but a sham.

We are blessed to have immortality.
Forever the same, with unconditional vitality.

I could have never loved another,
my enchanting vampire lover.

Comments: This honestly has nothing to do with the Twilight Saga! Just thought I'd throw that out there. I wrote this a few years ago, and I just recently repolished this work before posting it on Myspace and on here. It's rather romantic if I do say, and it brings out that lovey dovey side of me.

Deviation: I Don't Need This
Categories: Literature, Poems, General Poems
File:

I Don't Need This

Mere words that you speak,
Can slice deeper than any blade.
Tears fall, sobs become heard
Making the strongest soul fade.

I thought I knew you,
I thought you were my friend
Was it all just a lie?
As this curls up in a corner, waiting to die

But that's alright,
because I don't want it to live.

This friendship that we shared and all of our smiles
Must have passed right through you,
becoming the opposite of worthwhile

All of those words piled up, and I let it slide
Thinking in vain, that it would subside.
Everytime you looked at me in disgust,
I should have known it was the start of my mistrust.

This became worse and worse,
Friendship transforming into a curse.

But then I realized that I didn't have to take it any longer.

I will never again eat your words,
--your lies--that led to starvation,
Nor will I be some pawn in your devious manipulation.

I will turn away to find some true honesty.
I don't need to feel empty or angry--because of you--
ever again.

The emotions kept growing
Shielded by my will so that they stopped showing.

It's all behind me now, my life without you ready to begin.

No more will I forgive the insults, the constant slams
Instead,I will tell you straight: that's not who I am.

And yet, despite what you put me through,
I sometimes find myself wishing
That you could turn back to your old self.

But I know that you're showing your true colors, kindness missing.
So I know it can't be helped.

Don't look at me, I'll look away.
Don't sit by me, I wont stay.

I'd rather be on my own; free from all of the grief you caused me
I didn't need any of it, but the situtation made me stronger.
So I wont hold onto these memories any longer.

I've come so far, such a great distance
And I know that I'd rather choose to be me, standing alone,
Than at your side again, turning to stone.

Goodbye.
You wont be missed,
And I don't need this.

Comments: I wrote this about a few fridnds of mine who really underappreciated me, and who made me feel so low, so insignificant. I wrote this as a way to get all of my anger out at them, and it worked really well. This poem got posted in my schools literature magazine,and I got a few compliments on how good it was. Let me know what you think!

Demon Lover

I used to fear your blood red eyes,
Your jagged, fanged smile, like rows of knives.
I cowered in the trees, so far behind,
My judgement clouded, I thought you were unkind.

Curiousity lured me to your den,
Suspicion wasn't my only offense.

I thought I would see a vicious scene,
The cries of your meals, the rippings of meat.

But instead I saw a sight that I wouldn't forget.

Your chest rising and falling in peaceful sleep,
Radiance flowing off your skin.
Hair like moonlight, just as deep.
Your beauty was almost a sin.

And then I slipped, my hand breaking my fall.

Up in a flash, teeth bared, claws extracted.
Step by step, red pupils contracted.

I was so sure that I would die, torn to bits by sharp teeth,
All thanks to my curious nature, the demon I wanted to see.
You came closer, until I was forced into a corner, trembling.

You took my chin in your hands and breathed over my face.
Then you picked up my injured hand, and told me to know my place.

You wrapped up my hand, then sent me on my way,
As hard as it is to believe, I wanted to stay.

He was gentle, he was sincere.
His voice was kind, it erased my fear.
And he was different than what I thought.

We saw each other often, the briefest of glimpses.
Until I could take it no longer;
I had to talk to you again.

Mind set up, I left my lonely world, determined to join yours.
And I set off, on my own course

I found you easily enough, stargazing on an empty hill,
Sapphire eyes to the heavens, reflecting your iron will.

You spoke to me,saying openly,
that I had one chance, and had to take it now.
Either stay with you forever,
Or go far away and never return.

I said I wouldn't leave if ten armies came after me,
If a hundred curses were placed upon myself.
Your enchantment over my soul was much stronger.

That was two centuries ago, another lifetime,
And I'm still at your side, my dearest.

Touch the mark on my neck that makes me yours,
Whisper to me that you love me even more;
Than yesterday, than the moment before.

Indestructible protection,
Two lovers in the rivers reflection,
Theres no need for any correction.

I'm going to be a mother,
I'll hold our children when it storms and thunders.

Thank you, my demon lover.

Comments: I created three sets of these: Vampire, Demon and Angel Lover. This is the demon lover one. I really like this one , it reminds me of all of those romances back in time, and simple understanding of how things aren't as they appear. Tell me what you think!

Deviation Title: Angel Lover
Categories: Literature, Poems, General Poems

Angel Lover

Scattered, ragged, bloody feathers,
Collapsed--gasping--in the heather.
Have you fallen from grace?
Doomed to wander this Earth, punished by Fate?
Or are you a misunderstood creature?
With beautiful,heavenly features...

Even if you are filled with sin, I can't ignore an injured soul.
So I'll foreget all I was told.

Bandages for your chest, splints for your wings,
It's a wonder you're alive.
Despite the pain the healing will bring,
I know you will survive.

I smile at my fortune,at my good deed,
Now I just have to turn and leave.
Without waking you from your sleep.

But I hear a movement, a flutter,
And I'm face to face with an angel.

Irridesence sparkels on your skin,
Your metallic gaze has me pinned.
To your face, your beautiful face, that I tried so hard not to look at.

You ask if I was the one who patched you up, the one who found you.
I could only nod, my voice lost.

But then your face crumpled in pain as you grasped your back,
You fall to your knees, too quick for me to catch.

Blood covers your lips, coats the wounds on your chest,
This punishment knows no bounds; it will give you no rest,

A small groan leaves yout mouth, and my heart breaks.
How much more can you take?

I get on my hands and knees and take your hand,
Then I start to pray.
You nearly scream, and try to stand,
And I tell you I will not leave you; I will stay.

You stay still as I repatch your many cuts,
Wincing at a few, but never putting up a fuss.
As I finish, you tell me you're grateful for my care,
You say I am kind...

After that day, I visited you every chance I got,
Talking with you for hours.
Knowing full well I wouldn't get caught,
Completely entranced by your power.

You tell me you were forsaken,
Thrown from Heaven, heavily shaken.

Gray eyes cloud and fill with pain,
You inch away, drowning in your own shame.

But I pull you towards me,
I tell you I don't care that you are fallen.
You are not wicked, nor evil,
But the exact opposite: the earnest creature that I love.

My hands cover my mouth.
How could I have let that slip out?
And I am slowly succumbing to personal doubt.

Your fingers pull mine away from my lips, and to my surprise, your lips touch mine.
Slowly at first, but then more sure.

"I am yours." you whisper.

You gave up your wings for me, chose to stay here,
Happiness spills from my eyes instead of tears.

Never forced or smothered,
I love you, my beautiful, half angel lover.

Comments: This is the third installment of my "Lover" poem set, and this is one of my favorites that I made. I listened to "Evil Angel" by Breaking Benjamin one night, and this story came alive, and I had to write it. This also has a storyline with the whole fallen angel bit, but with twists. Tell me what you think!
