The Invisible BoyI am the invisible boy,
with the powers of the unseen.
I can vanish from sight and not reappear;
I'm truly the world's greatest hero-teen.

No criminal eyes can spot me,
and no bully can hope to be mean.
They can't push around and take lunch money,
from someone who cannot be seen.

Yes, I am the invisible boy,
who everyone just sees right through.
The one who is treated like nothing but air,
is standing right in front of you.

No words that I speak can be heard,
for my powers I cannot undo.
My cries are all whispers that are lost on the wind,
and I am never part of your view.

For I am the invisible boy,
with powers that you'll n

I'm here for you, Silly.I wish you'd stop!
Stop yourself from hating the person I love.
Can't you see what you're making her do?
Everyday, she has to put a fake smile on...
She tries to act invisible, and she doesn't realize that I see her and the rest of the pain and misery she brings with her.
She's starving herself, and she doesn't seem to get that I'm here and that I care for her.
She cuts her arms, forcing herself to hide her beautiful body.
She cries, every night, and every time she does I feel so useless...
I wish I'd help her.
I wish she see that I am here.
I'm here for her, all the time.
I just wish she'd notice it.

Now, please, wake up.

Trust me.Are you okay?

Ahah. Yes I am. I'm just tired.

Tired of? Come on, talk to me.

Sigh. You don't want to know.

Yes, yes I do. I care about you. What's the problem?

Trust me. You don't want to know.

Try me.

Fine. I drag it again and again everyday on my back.

It attacks me,
Sometimes once a month,
Sometimes once in a week,
Sometimes once a day.

It ushers me,
To be braver than I am,
To do more than I possibly ever could.
And I'm okay with that, sometimes, even glad.

I feed it, I tend to it, I nurture "it's" ways, and give in all the time.

It requires too much of me, for the only way to feed it is through my blood and tears, f

CancerFeel the pain aching through your bones
Your flesh, seemingly fading to dust
Your mind, burning
Your thoughts, racing.
Dying.
Breaking.

"It'll be okay."
No it won't.
"I know."

Fight the tears, your father can't see you cry.
After all
You're a fighter.
Right?

"You can do this."
No, I can't.
"Thank you."

Breathe.
Slower.
Slower.
No.
Faster.
Stop.

Shut up.

You
Can't
Win.

After all
You don't have cancer.

Cancer
Is who you are.

*Mirror Image*Old eyes searched a haunted image
With hands that shook he touched his face
Fearful he felt translucent skin
Like cling film wrapped on bone
Humbled he asked 'Who is this stranger'

Wait!
I know this man I am sure I do
Time receded a blur
Friends from the past smiled in the bevelled mirror
With hesitant hand he touched yesterday.

Remembering, women with ivory shoulders
Pearls shimmering on beige lace
Red lips that kissed with ancient guile
Images teased his weary mind
While he searched his mirror for a forgotten face
'Who is this stranger'

The Blind ManI thought once you could see things I couldn't
only to find a blind man describing what he wish he could.

I think I love him.No...
I think I love him.
No...
This can't be true.
No...
It can't be him.
No...
Why am I doing this?
It's not like he'd fall for me too.

SometimesSometimes I feel sad and alone.
Sometimes I feel I'm king of the throne.

Sometimes I ask myself where did it go wrong.
Sometimes I just want to burst into song.

Sometimes I wish I was given a chance.
Sometimes I just can't help but dance.

Sometimes I think life is moving too fast.
Sometimes I just smile at my past.

Sometimes I think who would miss me.
Sometimes I look at my family and see,
This is all that matters to me.

No IgnoranceBreak me down with your intolerance;
Everyday I'm scared to try something different.
Not this time.
Judge me if you wish
All what you'd be is a hypocrite.
My goal is to gain all perspectives;
Ignorance is not an option, I can't stand it.
Neither should you.

Cold RainIn each foolish waiting
A song is written
In each foolish waiting
The smile on my face is forbidden
In each foolish waiting
your soul that within me laughs at me
Over and over a gain from the start
I've never told you about the wound that is hidden
In my heart..

How many times I've told you that I miss you..
Just how many times
How many times I've stared at your picture and smiled with pain
While you were busy in things I never knew
How many times I called your name in the rain
Until I got wet
This rain used to be warm with you
But now you are gone
so far far away
You left and left me the rue
There is nothing to do
Th

I've Set Foot on a SatelliteI've set foot on a satellite,
With smooth washed walls of white and gray.
Everything seems a 100 foot tall,
And a 100 feet away.

I'm walking among the giants,
And I find myself asking, "Who are they?"
For when I'm in their presence,
They don't speak what I expected them to say.

I'm sleeping among the stars,
But not yet close enough to touch the sun.
I lay restless in black velvet,
Why don't I feel like I've won?

I've set foot on a satellite,
With windows that picture the black.
Everything seems so out of place,
Is it too late to turn back?

The Name GameN o drums beat tonight
I could hear them if they did
C ounting the minutes go down
O ne last time I hit the ground
L ying dead but awake
E very noise that isn't you makes me ache

Thoughts a Drift....I commit suicide every day in my mind
to the Feelings of those who love me I'm blind
some say it would be Selfish to follow through
to them I ask, have you ever had an arrow head lodged in your Heart?
Ever been to far apart
from your Only true love?
Felt pain so immense your forever numb?
Always feeling so dull & dumb

...Never dreams only nightmares
every sudden movement scares...
...blare music to Drown out reality
running away is my specialty...

So I plead, beg
don't get attached
to the rotten egg
you can't Aid
or save
The Broken Boy
Death he Craves
he's simply Hells new Toy...

goodbyewhat did i do
i miss you
i love you

miss you

i should have tried harder
reponsibilty was mine
and mine alone
i should have been stronger
for you
i dont place blame
i only place it on myself
i desire forgivness
but i dont deserve it
i miss your voice
i miss your laugh
finding myself will be hard
without you near
if we meet again
know that i will always miss you
even through harsh words bandaged in pain
i wont forgive myself

The SnowThey flutter from the sky
A dance of crystalline creatures
Whirling, spinning, descending
Dappling the air, frosting the land
They link hands and crowd together
A curtain of icy lace
Weaves together
And
A great white quilt
Blankets the earth
I spread my palm
One tiny snowflake settles down
I briefly, quickly gaze at the minuscule wonder
Just as my eyes focus
The snowflake melts away.

The Peasant BoyA peasant boy of humble birth,
who sought to truly know his worth,
did travel far across the land,
with naught but rusted sword in hand.

A hero true though few did see,
the strength and will and soul that he
hid deep within his boyish frame:
a heart that burned like dragon's flame.

He wandered near and wandered far,
with every journey, gained a scar,
but so too did he leave a tale,
that showed how Good could still prevail.

As time went by, legend began,
so too did boy grow into man,
no longer wielding rusted blade,
for now he stood as hero made.

And with his sword so gleaming bright,
he banished shadow, drove out night,

Together

We will be together.

I can hear your laughter,
like music chimes on the wind.
And your smile is radiance,
like the sun it warms me.

Your touch is soft and gentle,
fingers brush tears from my cheek.
And I taste your lips against mine,
sweeter than any chocolate.

But you become ash in my mouth,
and slip through my fingers like sand.
For you are a hope and a dream,
a lie my mind made and my heart believes.

Are you real or just a phantom,
a simple figment of my rumination?
Do you stare at the same stars in longing,
or are you like the void that separates them?

My heart says that you too are waiting,
for what cradles you in imagination.

We will be together.

Someday.

I am, by my own admitance, a 'hopeless romantic'. I believe that there is someone special out there who completes me and I believe that someday we will find each other. It is a very intimidating thought, thinking that ONE PERSON is out there in this big crazy old world, and I frequently find myself fighting despair at not having found her yet.

I can see her in my mind, feel her fingers intertwined with my own. Could she possibly be real, or am I suffering a delusion?

Still, I hold onto hope and press on because sometimes that's all any of us can do!

I know that feeling

[link] A piece I write about hopeless romantics. You don't have to read it or comment, thought you might be interested. Nice to see people with similar ideas sometimes.

But as a general critique, be careful of cliches: laughter and chimes, sun and smile, lips and chocolate, stars and longing. The 4th stanza is probably my favourite

Thanks for commenting!
I see being a hopeless romantic a blessing and a curse: we know what we want in a lover and don't waste much time on meaningless relationships (hopefully) but we must also suffer through great lengths of loneliness as we wait and search and wait and search.

It's simply what we must do to find our special someone!
