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~

Pressure by The Shadow Prince

Pressure

Everyday it’s all the same.
Concealing my rage and pain.
Still you would just turn away.
It’s just another hopeless day.

They’ll take a few steps closer,
then remember their composure.
They don’t want their rep shredded,
they just couldn’t fucking bear it.
Trying to avoid his eyes,
shamed by his surprise.
Unable to explain,
so they leave him.
Broken. Slain.

My Idea of Love by Hinatafan379

~My Idea Of Love~
Love is sweet Love is pain
Love can be meaningless
Love can be beautiful
Love Will always be inside of us

I dont really kno wat Love feels like
But i will one day soon and so will you!

There are different kinds of Love
Love for our Family
Love for friends Love 4 Celebrities
But i believe theres another Love
Love for ourselves

If we dont Love Ourselves first then
Others wont Love us either
Loving yourself means You appreciate
the person u are

But everyone has room for
improvement int their personality

Moving On by The Shadow Prince

Moving On

Walking down this hall
Where it leads I've yet to find.
Strange how no sound follows,
Not even footsteps.
As if blanketed in snow.
Strange how no shadow is cast
Upon the velvet walls.
Yet light enough there is to see.
Light so bright it nearly blinds.
Still my path is clear.
There are no doors at either side
Only this narrow corridor.
I'd turn back,
But nothing is left behind.
The path I've walked fades as my footsteps
Fall, like a memory.
What lurks behind I do not know.
What darkness follows
Waiting to feed troubles me not.
I do not fear to turn my back
On what was.

Midnight Steel by The Shadow Prince

Midnight Steel

Well hello again my dear dear friends
So sorry bout the stains
See last night I was up till dawn
Why? I can’t explain.
See things are not as comfortable
No things are not so great.
So put away your apologies
It really is to late.

And if you came looking for
Someone to hold you close and tight
Ya better keep on moving on
Cause I'm really not quite right.
And time will tell if this is worth
The blood I've yet to spill.
But something tells me its quite all right.
So go on, drink your fill.

It’s not really your concern
What I do when light fades.
No you shouldn’t know one damn thing
About these rusted blades.

Heart On A Sleeve by The Shadow Prince

Heart On A Sleeve

I wear my heart where everyone can see
I’m so confident I wear it on my sleeve
But unfortunately
This makes it easy for you to squeeze
I’d put it away but I just can’t stand being so unfeeling it’s just not how to live
Have you ever felt the sting being left behind
Trust me honey it really ain’t something fine
Those wounds, they don’t ever go away
And time how it makes everything ok
Honey that’s a lie don’t never ever believe.
I’ve got so many open holes it’s a wonder I can bleed
And what about I Love You?
Like that ever meant a thing
Sorry baby its all lies, yeah just keep on crying.
How many times will you get up
Before you realize it’s better to stay down
What’s that about never giving up
Haven’t you heard no one really gives a fuck.
No, no one cares and is it really a surprise.
