Unfortunately, this world seems to be mostly dead. I've done some long and hard thinking, and came to the conclusion that it'd be best to shut it down. I don't have the heart to delete it, so this world will remain as is, but guest posting is no longer available. If you are uncomfortable with any of your work still being up, please PM me, so that I can adjust posts. Also, if you have any questions, or would still like to share your work with someone in general, please feel free to me.
I want to thank everyone who ever participated in Otaku Poems. Whether you were a poet or a commenter, or silent audience, thank you. Otaku Poems had a good run~
I NEED YOU NOW
My friend, I need you now-
Please take me by the hand.
Stand by me in my hour of need,
Take time to understand.
Take my hand, dear friend,
And lead me from this place.
Chase away my doubts and fears,
Wipe the tears from off my face.
Friend, I cannot stand alone.
I need your hand to hold,
The warmth of your gentle touch
In my world that's grown so cold.
Please be a friend to me
And hold me day by day.
Because with your loving hand in mine,
I know we'll find the way.
When Life gives you lemons, make them into a sugary lemon shake up, chug it, and then hurl the el cheapo paper cup at Life's face.
Leave me alone you screamed,
nobody listens to me you yell.
Must I stand here and take
each beating with a smile?
You hide from up and come
back with a grin.
But we are exposed and
broken.
Are we sick little jokes?
Are we your filthy pawns?
I can't feel anymore...
you're tears haven't hit me.
And yet you tie a string
around my neck and make
me your little puppet.
No matter how much I fight
I can't break
free.
Hollow inside, I just stop. Maybe if I feel again...?
But your cold glare and harsh words prevent me from doing so.
Don't mess up you say. So I will continue to walk this

Hollow Eyes
~Your Empty Stare~
dont know where i'm going
but i sure as hell know where i'm coming from
rose out've the dust
worked twice as hard to get half as far
dont you dare look my way
with your bleached white fake nice smile
i'm not interested in your shit
so turn the fuck away
Cause I Am
everything you've alwasy wanted
what you've always thought about at night
laying in your bed
rapeing your mind
cant stop the want
the need
for something so wrong
it feels so right
And I Am
Everything they dont want you to be
all the things they tell you not to see
on tv
stick it to the man
fight whenever you can
These things
And so much more
That I Am
Yeah I Am
Everything that you could never be
buttoned down so hard its amazing you can breath
do they tell you to shut up
maybe to grow up
hell at this rate
you aint never gonna get up
dont know where i'm going
but it sure as hell aint gonna be near you
suffocating like laying in a coffin
girl better start clawing your way out
your not gonna be breathin much soon
and dont wait
for no knight to come and save you
its not gonna be me
and he aint never gonna come
come on
not like you were part of the dust
settling in your lungs
i rose out've that dust
i fought it all
never gave up
never stoped to crawl
got up everytime
and gave them hell
twice as hard
dont talk to me about hard times
you've had everything you've wanted
born and raised
princess of LA
you think you know
know what its like
to grow up without a daddy
who was more intersted in makin other babies
wonderin when you'd get to eat again
seein your mommy knocked out and barely movin
can you even imagine
workin at three
to help support a never meant to be family
all the stares
but none of them cared
thats how i learned
not shed a tear
your just like them
takin a look and closin the book
dont care whats inside
just like the way it looks to your eyes
dont know where i'm goin
but i sure as hell know where i'm comin from
fact is girl
that you DONT
so dont EVER pretend you know me
that you know what i'm goin through
or gone through
you aint NEVER gonna know
thats just how they want it
they dont want you to speak
they just want to be heard
whats in their best interest
is this robot/clone girl
so go back to your life
lay back in your box
let them shovel the dirt
and put on the locks
