The Ultimate Betrayal
That first night, Our first kiss
The first time, What joy and bliss
I hear your name And my heart cries,
Longing to see Your loving eyes
A moment late I arrive
You're lying there, Her by your side
Stopped in my tracks, My breath is gone
I never thought You'd be that one
To hurt my pride My senseless thoughts
How could you ever... I should have not
Walked in that day. It made me wail
You there with her - The ultimate betrayal.
An Unescapable Truth
A lone man
A simple plan -
Death.
A parents child
A man defiled -
Lost.
A friend to us
A lover at once -
Revenge.
A happy day
Of men who pray -
Gone.
A world of peace
Man's anger ceased -
Unknown.
An murderous death
To an innocent man -
Unforgivable.
The last chance of a world
Torn to pieces -
Christ.
I know these have completely different meanings, but I'd really appreciate if you told me what you think of them. I wanted to capture the moment in the piece, and as the writer, I want to know if the readers think I accomplished that. You can probably tell I'm in a very pessimestic mood today. Life sucks, and then we die. Yep, that's about how I've been feeling recently. At least it gives me a lot to write about... enjoy!

Truth and Reality
Sometimes poems can convey more emotion and meaning than just words. This is probably going to be practically impossible to understand, but I really just wrote this one for me.
Stars sparkle in your eyes
As I stare in the depths of space.
So deep and caring,
Yet a mystery to mine soul.
Please open your heart to me
Oh the reassurance you could
Give my thoughts -
Don't keep me waiting.
Through the distance
I can see the truth.
And I wish it were not,
But how can it not be?
Is this just my mind
Playing tricks
Or am I searching for
A love long gone?
It feels so real...
But how do I know
The difference between
Truth and Reality?
