Death is Not An Option by Nora Caldero

A TRIBUTE FOR THE: 9/11 TRAGEDY
As I sit here and I wonder why
Somewhere, some way we all must die

Do we believe we can miss the boat
Somehow redirect its path without cutting our throat

Can we fly south or take a sabbatical to France
Can we miss life's most infamous dance

No matter how far you travel or where you go
Death will be there to answer the door

There is no option when it comes to death
No matter how healthy or how much wealth

There is no road that will lead you astray
No miraculous prayer that will save the day

Death has been promised to all kind
Nothing lives forever that is the design

Now life after death that's the true story
The only way there is in Gods' Glory!

Now you must pay attention if you have the need to live on
There are some basic instructions that will not steer you wrong

Try picking this up when you see the next paper or hardback
Some wonderful instructions to help keep your life

Back from where we've Started by Jaemie Falcon

Little do I know about you,
mysterious friend... I know its you.

Days swept so fast, days become years,
until I found myself counting my tears.

Pain and misery of my heart will soon mend,
but going back for me is hard to understand.

A different love that never lasted,
and now we're back from where we've started.

Yesterday, I saw you standing there,
Gloomy.. in the sky you stared.

Instead of talking, you walked astray,
deeply wounded, I hate that day!

Slowly, you and our memories fade,
shadow covering the happy thoughts I've made.

My feelings concealed with so much stealth,
It took me 3 months to finally feel the guilt.

The Compassion of a broken hearted

I heard an awful song,when the river flow
I felt like numb,when I feel wind starts to blow
I can’t imagine life without full of glow
I have the greatest fear that is a big throe

Whenever I look every scene as I recall
The memories that fade I can’t follow
All I can do is seen the picture, I fall
A love that treasure as boon as your eyebrow

I, , the compassion of the broken hearted
Wave that makes me remind, I affected
I relate from the story of titanic
Your my eternal spirit thats a magic.

Sweet Goodbye by Berny Hermosa

i never thought i would fall
someone greater than you before

its the thin line of my desire
that no one dare to cross that line

all day past
never thought that it has a better part
this sweet sensation i felt
just assure me that i have a safety
belt

but tears fell one night
and it grasp my life with fright
and all i want to have is might

how can i make it through this pain
when all i hear are drops of rain
how could i heal this part again
when all i know is i've nothing to gain

you said u need to
but u said you'll never go
how can i stand without you
now that i dont know what can i do

now the stars are fading
all of the sudden
i am only looking
in this note saying
Goodbye

Hollow by bAby rAych

I am empty, I am hollow
That when you yell at me
You might hear an echo
As the waves of your voice
Bounce in this hollow body of mine



I have no soul
Long have I sold it to the devil
And for what
For someone like you
To love me back



I have no heart
And you should not even wonder why
You ripped it out
When you took my breathe away
You crushed it

Right in front of my very eyes
And I listened to you as you laughed mercilessly
As you see blood drip
Emptying each chamber of my heart
For I am nothing to you
Not even close
To someone you can call worthy



Hollow
I have nothing left in me
I could not call myself human
My soul
My heart
they are all with you now
And they don’t even mean anything

Cut by bAby rAych

i cut myself
just right there
on my wrist
where I felt
my pulse


stupid heart
why are you still beating
stop
just stop
won’t you



what are you beating for
he’s no longer here
the only reason
that I let you beat
so that I may live



crimson fluid
draining from my vessels
they feel warm
against my skin
my skin turning blue



i feel cold
my hands are clammy
sweat trickling down my face
i am losing sight
all i see is darkness



take me
take me away from here
this pain I can no longer bear
set me free from the grief
help me, help me



i cut myself
just like that
when you left
turned your back
and said goodbye

y0u aNd y0uR LovE by Princess Luna

broken promises and shattered dreams
are all that's left... they're all i see

i'm bound and chained by my anger and fears
the plague that's slowly killing my heart that' s in tears

i can say: no one loves me...
not now... not even before
i keep knocking time and again
but they've all shut their doors

time itself has proven that forever was a lie
what we had was the eclipse that darkened my once bright sky

YOU BROKE MY HEART...
YOU CORRUPTED MY MIND...
YOU SHATTERED MY DREAMS...

AND YOUR LOVE WAS A LIE

Death and Rebirth by Chi

it was not the sun
that died that morning
but us finding darkness
more comfortable.
we dropped our tools,
dropped to our knees
and crawled back to
the womb of memory
and there we dreamt
of better mornings, warmer sunshine.
But how could we know
while we floated in the belly
of silence and cold?

limbo is the worst place.

in another world,
we were ready to die again
suffocated in this sac of stagnancy--
but a push and a heave,
a breathe of protest
against the bred silence,
and we pass through another birthing.
this one slower and more painful
until we see
the light
again
and burst out laughing.

Light and Shade by Irene Chicqui

Your warmth,

Send pulses humming;

Hastens the flight of decaying memories,

Of a white rose left to wither;

Of an old flame smothered,

mingle with the passing wind

Gathering dust at the corners of a locked away corridor,

Meant to be forgotten;

Now forgotten.



How can I not?

You’re always there,

With bright lips and quiet eyes

That send red flags

To unconsenting cheeks;

Removing knives,

Cleaning stitches,

Already healed.



Your hand next to mine,

I can not breathe without;

Waiting to touch,

But not touching,

Cradles my soul,

Crushes my heart.



But why such hesitation?

mine of exhaustion,

Yours I know not,

We are free.

let definitions be for dictionaries.



Together we dance solo,

Separate steps to the same tune,

Content with the silence

Of hushed pounding pulses,

Beating each other’s names

Nailed burning within guarded chests

To an indulgent stillness.



Such sweet torment

We hum the same melody

But sing a different song

We stand together

Yet apart.

Veritas by Windel Zamora Canbando

Life is but a fancy poetry;
Truths are hidden in genuine irony.
Behold it's true,so hard to famthom,
As a child with wondered eyes over the fallen leaves of Autumn.

So many faces along the way,
Yet what's inside is kindling enmity.
And there are few who used to smile,
In midst of their wounded knees to vanish the pain a while...

And why this sole man in the empty street so gay?
Who can hardly eat his meals a day...
But here is a man who owns gold and silver,
Yet still finds himself nil and meager!

Quid veritas est?
So hard to answer...
But please remember...
"Magna est veritas et praevalebit!"
