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~
Nite-Scare
It’s the aching of my heart
Keeps me awake at night
In the quiet of the dark
My fears are in plane sight
The fiends of my mind
Whisper loud in my head.
Will the chills up my spine
Shake me half to death?
Or the madness of my life
Tear me apart instead?
An unstoppable force
Knocks me into a slumber
An unreasonable force
Drags me into a world where
My deepest frustrations reside…
My thoughts are distorted
Looking past the light
Feeling anxious all the time
Running through my life
Thrust into turmoil
Fallen into the dark
I must find my way out
Eyes don’t stray from that spec of light
Crawl out of this hole
But my limbs
I cannot control them
I’m in a hectic situation
Can’t stop these rocks from tumbling
Mind over matter
Help ‘cause I’m struggling
But listen,
It’s not all in my head…
Charm
Soft words
Like a melody
Running through my head
Like my favourite song,
I put it on repeat
What to do?
When you’re obsessed
Sleep can only ruin this perfect moment
Time passes by
Becoming something like a vampire
Survive off the energy of another...
Nothing can be done
To cure this magik charm
It’s set in, embedded in my soul.
A song runs through my veins
Keeps my feeble heart alive
Wards evils away
Not one, not a thing,
Can harm one smitten with infatuation
And possessed by love.
Why do we love Japan?
Why do we love Japan so much?
Could it be the culture and such?
Or maybe the food...like ramen or sushi
I really do love a good herbal tea
But that's not the reason that I love Japan.
Is it maybe the ninjas? I don't know.
Ninjas are awesome, but even so...that's not the reason I love Tokyo
I think it might be the cute little pandas
But...I think that it's the animes and mangas
They're funny, romantic, scary, and more
Sometimes they'll even make my heart sore
And I think we all know that the very best part
Is drawing in our own unique style of art
It just makes you feel happy, and you don't know why
I do love Japan, I'm not going to lie
And I know most of you must feel the same way,
Or else you wouldn't be on TheOtaku today!
I'm sad to say this is where my poem ends...
Sayonara for now, all my friends!
It hurts to look back on the old days
Because I know things will never be the same
When we went out dancing in the pouring rain
And I wasn't paranoid about future pain.
When we'd run through streets without a care
Our joy would rain down from the heavens everywhere
When we'd play tag all day long
And we'd sing thoughs silly songs.
When nothing really seemed to matter
And from miles away you could hear the sound of our laughter.
And you promised me
Beneath those old willow trees
That friends forever, we would be
But time went on and things began to change
I no longer see you, but your memory still remains.
I often dream,
Of the way things used to be.
But we can never get back
Everything we once had.
We no longer catch fire flies and place them in a jar
We no longer sing together under the stars.
I close my eyes and long to be in your arms
And though you've moved on and left me here, you're still in my heart.
I miss how you'd chase me up and down the parking lot
And the summers I spent with you amazing and hot.
Sweat dripped down our backs, yet we never came inside
And oh how I wish that you'd come back and again be mine.
I've thought of you everyday since your depart
It's always been you, right from the start.
Everytime I close my eyes I see your sweet face
I don't know how, but you've sewed yourself into my heart with a linen and lace.
And everyday I pray
That where ever you are today,
That you are doing alright
Even though you aren't in sight.
And even if you never love me,
I just ask God, that'd you'd be happy.
And I pray that you'll always remember me.
Because I'll always remember you,
No matter what I say, no matter what I do.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that I miss you,
Tell me, dear... Do you miss me too?
Tyranous
How does it feel
To have no choice
How does it feel
To lose your voice
How does it feel
To be replaced
How does it feel
When your erased
They say its darkest before the dawn
But its been dark for so long
No one cares what I say
One more hopeless day
Shut behind brick and stone
Everyday spent alone
How long till I see your face
Till I’m done living in disgrace
Its been dark for so long
And something feels wrong
It feels so wrong
Look around
Man cant you see
There’s something
Wrong with me
I don’t fit in.
And lately that’s a sin
Will I be crucified?
Attempts made on my life?
They won’t be satisfied
Till I lay down and die
Just cause I don’t fit in
And lately that’s a sin
