SKILLET POEMS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT

(A/N I can't believe I have 519 views :D Halfway to 1K, let's do this guys!

I'm a poet, now you know it.)

So I'm sitting here at midnight bored af and I decide to listen to some Skillet (cause why not) and I wrote poems based on the songs. They have phrases and words form the songs, as well as a similar theme, so I guess these aren't actually mine. Oh well. After each poem I'll put the name of the song.

Every heartbeat you're with me
All these empty, cold nights
Escaping this horrific place
Is my only motive, away from these lies

When I'm restless, or cannot cope
Killing the poison, erasing my suffering
Taking away all the pain
So I can feel again

How can I tell you
What you mean to me?
I can't put it into words
It's something even I couldn't see

Better Than Drugs

An empty cold shell
I hate feeling like this
My demons lurk
Taking away what I've been missing

I'm slowly losing you
Slipping away silently
I can't reach you now
You'll be nothing but a memory

My heart hurts and my tears fall
I don't wanna live or even take a breath
Unless you're right here next to me
Protecting me from death

Comatose

I'm so lonely
Here, it's so cold
The crack is getting bigger
Don't leave me here all alone

The darkness awaits me
Its black tendrils snaking through the cracks
I'm so scared, so terrified
I won't, I can't make it back

Falling Inside the Black

Because the monster that lives inside
Although it's under lock and key
I can't control it at all
Please stay away from me

Monster (huh this one was short)

I'm sitting alone here
Thinking of the walls between you and I
How we pushed each other away
No matter what we did, fight after fight

I can't help it at all
Wondering the time we'd missed
How it never seemed to matter
In a place such as this

This boredom makes me think
I wonder if time heals our wounds
Maybe then we could be happy
Then again, I wasn't sure why or what for

The Older I Get

You're all I cared about
Although now I'm asking
How is it that we're solemn today
When yesterday we were laughing

This could be the end
If you're just going to say goodbye
That's fine, I don't care
But it would've been nice to know your lies

I don't want to hear you at all
Block your voice out, it's over
It hurts so much
I hope you hear my last words

Say Goodbye

I remember the old days
When we'd forget our problems, forgot them all
Stand together, stand alone
As long as we would never fall

We didn't know what was good
So we stayed up late every night
Relaxing, talking in the darkness
It was the very thing that kept me alive

Nothing wrong at all
I wish it could last
I wanted it to continue
It was the best thing I ever had

Those Nights

Despite those lies you've spread
The love of mine is a burden
Don't carry it around, discard it
Your love is sweet, it is

I will comfort you
I will find you, and hold you
You'll never be alone
Because I'll be there too

I'll always catch you
You'll never fall
But how can I do that
If you don't know me at all

Whispers in the Dark (going into another song)

You walk the street alone
I know you're hurting inside
I wish I could hold you
And tell you everything's alright

You're going through so much
I want to reach out and say
I could comfort you
All along the way

All I wanted was to be there
I'm waiting for the perfect time
When you look around
I'll be waiting here, in the daytime

Yours to Hold

I hide in my room, away from you
Somebody help me, please
I'm so scared of you
The power you seize

I don't know how you could do this
All the open scars on my body
The wounds that you inflicted
If they lived here, they'd see

But I still don't know why you hated me
When I looked up to you
I wanted to be you someday
You can't stop the things I do

Open Wounds

I sit here thinking of paradoxes
The time someone told me something, ever
If my time was up, I wonder
Would I be remembered forever?

I have no mark on this world
Still stuck here, going nowhere at all
I wonder if I should try it again
Or give up and let myself fall

If I simply gave up
Would they notice I wasn't there?
I'm only thinking about a certain person
Like me, but better

Would it ever matter?
I can't count my missed chances that've passed me by
I'm such a mess, so would it count
If I gave it one more try?

I hate feeling like this
Somebody help me forget
All the hurt and pain
And guilt and regret

Would It Matter
