The sad side of infinity
Shadows the decay of elation.
Burning in sanctity,
And never restrained.
Condemned by torment
And flawed by its purity.
Broken by the empty refrain
Coddled by lustful denial,
And strangling innosence.
Such a worthless and worn plight!
Safe now, erasure conceals
The indignity of death,
As it freys and collapses
Upon wilted desire.
Bringing back the serenity of abuse.
And ending this sigh called life. |

’Random 30 Word Poetry Challenge’
We felt infinite, the decay of sorrow
a wind-spent torment given to another:
true elation like a kitten’s first kill
hanging from its jaws.
In this sanctity of candle-burning temples,
we felt sure; restrain us and feel the flaw
of thinking purity only comes
in one distinct flavour.
If were to refrain in denial, lust would
become unsafe in abused and strangled
innocence: to be worn like a kite’s plight
when its string got tangled.
Erasure: conceal the emptiness of thought;
there’s indignity in the death of so many’s
onslaught, as it frays in a wilting display
of broken rays and followers.
Desire collapses in this sigh of life.

| User | Rokhal | 2006-12-11 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | "Death! Death!" we cackle, staggering.
Sotally tober, man.
You put on a serious face and torch another hairspray can,
Too close to my hair. I can’t care.
I never felt so safe,
Under the burning vortex you swing like a lightsaber,
Frying mosquitoes.
You keep me safe, my handsome drunken Jedi.
Life runs sideways by the marshes,
Grasses collapsing, rising from decay.
Tonight we are like them,
We forget which way is up.
Innocence puts the "I"s in "incapacitated."
I can’t restrain myself. Desire took the bit in her mouth long ago,
But you’ll flame mosquitoes until the weight of empty bottles sinks our spirits,
Like our tires in the bank mud.
We have to dig it out by hand.
Talk about a mood killer. |
| User | Kasper187 | 2006-11-30 | | | Subject | Infinite SadnessAPG | | Message | Infinite sadness worn on my sleeves
This decay of my heart remains to be seen
Like this pain in the eyes of sanctity
Forgive me I am lost in my indignity
Infinite sadness burning my crying eyes
Do you know what its like to lose it all?
Can you feel this Pain so Mine?
This torment I feel , I can’t help but fall
...On my knees as I wilt in this pain
In denial I know my heart must refrain
Infinite sadness taking dawn
Like the sun when it rises
And the shadows that fall
Alone in this life my heart collapses
Infinite sadness will be the death of me
Close my eyes to the emptiness
That consumes all of my purity
Broken in sorrows of my lost innocence
Infinite sadness I try to restrain
Take me away and let me feel
Desire within to end all of this pain
Evading is my heart that I must conceal
Infinite sadness worn on my sleeves
This decay that my heart remains to believe
Like this pain in the eyes of sanctity
Forgive me I am lost in my indignity

| User | laursal | 2006-06-22 | | | Subject | city? | | Message | I tried to rhyme which I’m not good at so eh...
The city-scape worn and broken
aching under the abuse of tired feet
mournful of its’ empty doorways
places where lovers once would meet
The sanctity of it tarnished
the city breathes a sigh
to forget the indignity of its collapse
lost in memories of time gone by
Struggling to regain its lost luminous glow
yet deep within the heartbeat is stumbling
below these bodies moving
the foundation itself is crumbling
Concealed by this thin veneer
of rebuilt sophistication
The undergrowth begins to wilt
and we watch in raptured elation
For this slow decay
most beautiful in its detail
The wearing of the stones
the breath so old and stale
Bones of buildings straining
buried beneath the weight
tangled under strangling cords
of lunacy and fate
So lovely in its stark purity
this picture of time as it passes
Our lives mirror the stone gargoyle
these buildings speak of the masses
we sit safe in our denial
while our plight it goes unnoticed
all around the erasure complete
but our eyes they are unfocused

| User | rtx2 | 2006-03-25 | | | Subject | parents | | Message | With infinite wisdom they shelter
Their bodies begin the decay
At their death we are in torment
Only with the promise of reuniting
Do we experience elation
In the sanctity of life
we experience a burning desire
To understand that which restrains us
From our full potential.
It is the human flaw that limits
The purity of love from parent to child
Can be the sweet refrain in our life song
Denial of this bond stems only from human lust
We have been kept safe from abuse
That strangles innocence from society

| User | Rokhal | 2006-03-24 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | Sanctity,
He breathed. Safe between the stones,
Under holy gaze in the infinite age,
The purity, the dusk-roofed reverberant hall.
The gargoyles and dragons seemed to sigh from the colonades,
But the voice was the lusty and innocent trees,
Tossing and silently burning with autumn.
The courtyard and the clerestory.
Elation bloomed like a butterfly in his broken lungs.
He brushed the worn unwilting walls,
Cool and unrestrained. |
| User | KimmyMim | 2005-12-23 | | | Subject | Old Wound... | | Message | Conceal this empty, burning soul,
and purify my broken heart.
Young innocence you put to shame
desire is worn...
my lust, restrain,
Never to see your eyes again!
Nor touch your skin,
nor feel your pain!
Oh! Let my indignant plight decay,
old memories fade
then blow away...
And in the end...another day...
My wilted heart will forever frey.
(looking for an embarassed emoticon....nope...can’t find one...
this is my first unedited, published piece...pretty bad, huh?) |
| User | sweet_rayne | 2005-12-15 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | Torment of my infinite desires
A never ending thought of my
Loss of innocence
My mind is worn and weary
As my body collapses
After the loss of my purity
I have fallen from grace
And my wings are broken
I can no longer fly
My composure is gone
I need to find it but im lost
In the denial of the choice I made
That decayed my safety net
As I sigh at the loss of the sanctity
Of a life I never knew I loved
Till I brought this plight upon myself

| User | orpheus | 2005-12-14 | | | Subject | inspiration | | Message |
Living through infinite decay
and its morbid torment,
disarray in a day
in earths awkward orbit.
Will this state my elation
and give me sanctity?
Or cause a burning restrain
or pay my salary?
Am i the flaw in the diamond
trapped by purity?
Or reversed
focused on my insecurity?
Questions from which
i can never refrain,
feeling like Axel Rose
singing in ’November rain’
Am i safe
wrapped up in the lust of denial?
Or is this just another one of those
recycled recitles?
Cause in a sense
it’s innosence strangled and abused,
minutes spent where hidden nets
tangled and confused.
It took the ’F’
outa my flight and gave me a ’PL’
please spell what i write
my ink’s from a deep well.
Though i feel worn and torn
forlorn formed from scorn,
i still storm the fort walls
like a chessboard pawn.
An even though all around me
my life collapses,
rhyme relaxes me
until i find my axis.
So i always feel the danger
of complete erasure!
Keeps me sharp as a razor
Which free’s my game up!
Concealed’s the deal
from the ’industry’
till i reveal the real in me
to their indignity!
All these empty promises
how they’ll let me market this,
i’m an Emcee novalist
who’s pen bleeds larger print!
I’ll never wilt and frey
like a shrinking violet
letters built in a day
while i think in silence!
So out’a the pan
thrown in the fire
the oil of my toil
from broken desire!
Till death’s rattled and sighs
like Jeckle and Hyde
and gives up the ghost
i’ma battle with rhymes............ |
| User | pioneerheart | 2005-11-16 | | | Subject | War Victims | | Message | War began as a plight for broken swine
Giving false purity, there’s elation from the podium
Frey and shred blood from purity
Another ingenious attempt to conceal a flaw from the government
Destined to strangle another civilian
The secret police took the rooks
While the dictators stain millions and millions
Silence distilled muting humankind
Every so often death wins life
Which Starts only with the least thought of indiginty
To finally shut the cries
And silence the empty sigh
When the cause is gone
There’s no freedom
Til erasure strikes when it closes eyes |
| User | papalegba | 2005-11-01 | | | Subject | pathway | | Message | the presence made my heart elated
with a burning desire
for the purity of the inner soul
not knowing what plight could arise
at that moment who would care
when the night was over
all i could feel was an emptiness
then alas i tried to conseal where i was
i could see death was near
for knowing that life was over
with the lust that i had in my body
i know lay broken harted
as it is now over |

| User | smartblond | 2005-10-30 | | | Subject | Toils of tormennt | | Message | life is strangled by our torment
that tears at us inside
are elation is decaying
are souls are broken into two
Denial of lust for purpose
is burning us inside
our desires go unfilled
are empty lifes frey
under the pressure of our plight.
Purity is worn so thin
there’s no where safe to hide
The infinate flaw of indignity
is killing all innonence
and with a sigh
we wilt up and collapse
from the erasure of sactity
and wth a sigh
lifes restrained
and death is refrained no more |
| User | gd66uk | 2005-08-28 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | Tormented by past desires
Dreams wilted like the dying flower
Broken heart full of torment
Drifting from this burning soul
Caught on a catherine wheel of desire
Spinning out of control
Until emptiness sighs its last breath
Concealing the worn plight of existence
Elation a past plight
Death awaits this lonely life |
| User | Inducted_Kitty | 2005-08-10 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | Life is not safe, it has one major flaw
Infinite torment to abuse all innocence
The decay of broken purity
The burning indignity
The desire to conceal empty lust
The elation to find sanctity
The sigh of denial
Our restraint worn in our plight
Our sanity collapses ’neath the refrain
Our spirits wilt in their death
As we strangle our own dreams
|
| User | Kalinda | 2005-07-24 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | The infinite decay of torment
And the burning restraint of lust
Death seems empty
Insolence joins the frey
Elation, free of purity
The flaw of innocence
Trapped in it’s plight
No sanctity as life wilts
Concealed within dignity
Broken by desire
Refrain from abuse
Strangling denial
Safety collapses worn out
And they sigh
For life |
| User | solemnpen | 2005-07-20 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | there are infinite times that people cry for no reason
the torments of life, has made their hearts commit treason
with a burning desire, to refrain from stooping to that level
the denial just builds up and creates indignity amongst the heart and soul
mean people strangle the "good guy" that tries to let everybody know
that a sigh of relief from his empty life can mean
that he can and will amount to anything
his hidden innosence chooses to be |
| User | magnicat | 2005-06-27 | | | Subject | untitled | | Message | infinite decay
torments elation
sanctity burns,
purity’s refrain denied
by lust |
| User | Lies | 2005-06-27 | | | Subject | It was a try... | | Message | I feel safe
In the idea that I am
In lust
and not love.
I do not torment myself
With dreams of forever,
but instead
Dreams of tonight.
Love is living with no life.
And I have life,
I have lust.
There is flaw in loving
but not in lusting.
Impurity is a word
For my living.
And in my heated moment,
A loud sigh can be heard
But I refrain from saying
Those three words.
I will not allow myself to abuse
And I conceal myself from love
For that is what I find comfort in
That is where I can find where love is lost.
