Poem: Want to End it All by Ingrid

Posted on Thursday March 04, 2010 by Sara Ryan

Want to end it all

Sometimes you feel like this,

you want to end it all, you

feel so small among them all

with your soul oppressed by

the world so cruel, * you

wont open your eyes, cuz you

dont want to see what is left

for you, you look so scared

but not surprised seems as

they have always been the

owners of you life



Your hopes were all gone,

feel the death has a place in

your home, seems i have been

so far from you those days,

but you were always far from

me,and as look you around you

you will see everyone has

gone , you are all alone now,

searching for a home to cry

out your pain

But who can hear you, who can

heal you,  even if your far i

am always near you 



searching for a new

beginning, searching for a

new home, searching for a new

home, or simply a place where

i must belong, just dont want

to end it all

When I think of You

Posted on Friday August 07, 2009 by St. Johns

When I think of you
I see your face smiling down at me
But then I realize
You're not there

Every night I dream of you
Not noticing the tears falling down my face
My eyes filled with these memories of you
And all the things we use to do

Whever I think of you
I remember the good time we had
And then I realize that you're gone
I begin feeling sad

I don't know anymore
I miss you so much
It's hard to think straight anymo
re
The pain still withers in my heart

And as the world still turns
My soul stands alone
For the first time
In my life

When I think of you
I see the brightness in your eyes
They don't diseave me
When under the moonlight
When I think of you

By Adelle Bleumoon aka Samantha T. Moore of St. Johns Library.

I was Broken, but not anymore

Posted on Friday August 07, 2009 by St. Johns

As I walk alone in this cold mist tonight
I wonder if I had left anything behind
But what's this
worth to you
That I have nothing left to do

There is much more I could have done
But it's too late now
I remember when we use to have so much fun
Before I had fallen down

When I look inside myself
I see nothing but pain until
It just all went away
Though I'm not okay

Sometimes I wished I would die
But I'm glad that I'm still alive
And then I finally remembered
I was just a game to you

I was broken
But not anymore
I am me again
Forevermore

When I look into your eyes
I saw self empathy
ANd pit to me, just like last time
I have found my home

There is nothing more
That I long for
Than life

I'm alive
I'm here tonight
I will not fall again

Broken Wings

Posted on Friday July 17, 2009 by St. Johns

My heart cannot say
What's right or wrong for me
No matter how long I've waited for this day
I can now finally see

Now that I can do
The things I've always wanted to
Since my wings have been broken
I've had to hide in a pitch black den

My life can no longer prevail
With the others of this land
I wish I could say that I failed
But I have to keep trying, over and over again

My heart's gone to sleep now
Am I ready to fall down
What will they do to me
Once they find out the truth

I'm not sure of this anymore
But I'm determined
Unlike before
I just can't stand it

THe longer I wait
The more I think
Of the many ways
 This could end

What shall I do
With only my broken wings
To guide me home

The feeling I get
Whenever I trhink
Whenever I dream
Of how this will end

I can't getthe bad pictures
Out of my head
The nightmares keep coming back
The sweet lulliby is what I long for


What will I do with these broken wings?

Hidden Behind My Blue Eyes

Posted on Friday July 10, 2009 by St. Johns

Though there are disclaimers about the world around us
But the truth is...
There really is something to believe in
I just have to find it

I can't seem to sense the truth
Lying within my head
But I in return
Forget instead

The crimson red of her eyes
And the golden touch in his
Show me the real life
Beneath all that I've been hiding

Will I in return
Forget who I really am
On the inside of my being
Or will I see the truth

Hidden behind my blue eyes

By Adelle Bleumoon aka Sami Moore from the St. Johns Library....

its already been an hour

Posted on Thursday June 25, 2009 by Hillsdale

Is been an hour and i've only had about 4 people. Yay. How busy...

Anyways, I think we should be able to go on the library website from the database. Just saying, it might make those days when no one comes just a little more interesting.
