it's been a very long time...

since my last post.

I am in no ways the same person i was  when I made it, even though I wish I was. Coming back to this just reinforces how much I've changed, how much i've been broken and hurt in this past year. I used to be strong, i used to be happy. I used to love life and living and now it takes everything I have just to make it through each day. Too much has happened to recount in this blog. Too much i just want to repress and and be done with, so i don't have to relive it again. And it's not likely anyone will read this anyway, so it'd be futile, most likely. 

Suffice to say, my candle has burnt out. I tried to keep it going, even though it was gone, but last tuesday it was put out for good when an atomic bomb was dropped on my heart.

It's going to take a long time for me to recover from this, but with some help I believe I can put the shards of my shattered self back together again. Although, unfortunately, it will not be the same self it was when i posted my last poem.

If by some miracle you are reading this, I ask you to pray for me, whoever you might be. Pray that I may heal and find myself once more that I may be able to have some glitter of light to share with someone in the distant future.

For I have been shattered, in pieces.

Other Things
By: Amelia Rose
 
There's more to life than popsicles
As I've found out, for sure
Other things to do and wish
That posess a certain lure
 
I love to sing and act and dance
Perhaps that is a cure
For the melting of the ice cream
When I can't go to the store
 
The process is a slow one
It's long and dreary too
But with some help I think I can
Hope for something new
 
Put away the heartache
And give back the key
For I have other things to do
Including finding me
 
Perhaps they've reconfigured
And the puzzle's not the same
Perhaps some shards are gone for good
And different will be the frame
 
I no longer care
How they rearrange
I only wish they will
So I am not estranged
From my friends
From the world
Or from my broken self
Put me back together please
So I can dream once more
And learn what's great in store
For me
That I may be free, for once
 
The pieces will come together
If I wait and pray
Not all of them, no but perhaps enough
To make it through each day
 
And as a song I like to hear
Says to ease my pain
"Nothing lasts forever,
Not even cold November rain."

Let Me Light My Candle
Current mood: touched

An eternal nighttime
A heartless world
Living in cold darkness
The agony unfurled
 
Harsh words and broken hearts
A true love denied
Many things can happen
That hurt deeply inside
 
Fear and pain cause anguish
To a broken soul
Another's heart can break apart
The pieces of the whole
 
But here I am, I'm with you
Take my hand, I'll guide you
Hold my heart, I'll love you
I'll always be beside you
 
Talk to me, I'll listen
Let me in your dismal night
Let me light my candle
And for you, shine my light

so it's been quite awhile since i've updated this thing....i've basically just become addicted to myspace, lol, but w/e

here's another poem I wrote:

What Makes a Person
by: Amelia Rose
 
What makes a person?
Is it his thoughts, or words or deeds?
Is it his niche for knowing needs?
Is it his habits, both old and new?
Or is it his troubles,
whether many or few?
 
What makes a person?
Is it his standards for life?
Is it his children, or kind, loving wife?
Is it his strength or his physical brawn?
Or maybe it's his weaknesses 
of things come and gone
 
What makes a person?
Is it his true full beliefs?
Is it his sorrows, and hard-hitting griefs?
Is it his mercy, compassion and joy?
Or is it his hopes
now strong, now destroyed?
 
What makes a person?
Can one truly know?
I think it is all of these
And none of these
At the same rate of flow.
 
What makes a person?
Can one tell from the start?
Can one really see it, in full or in part?
What really makes a person is the truest of arts
It's the love and compassion
That dwells in his heart.
 
 
"Who you were in the past, and even who you are at present does not determine who you will be in the future. Only you can determine that. Only you." --Amelia Rose

What Happened to the Fairy Tales?

by Amelia Rose
 
What happened to the fairy tales,
Wherever did they go?
The handsome prince,
The daring knight
The wicked witch,
The foe?
 
What happened to
Love at first sight?
What happened to
First lovers’ blight?
What happened to
Forbidden love?
What happened to
A princess dove?
 
The spiraling towers
With climbing vines,
The deep dark sleep
True beauty confines
They’re gone, forgotten,
Forsaken, lost
The price of such
Too high a cost
 
No one remembers
The magic of
Wondrous fantasy
Or of true love
 
I once believed such things were true
When I was young, and they were new
But now, to fathom a perfect love
Is to accept a push or shove
It’s all just fiction
Or so it seems…
Just fantasy, and crazy dreams
 
But now I wonder…
Is that all?
None can live,
Except in gall?
It seems such awful
Condemnation
For living in this
Dispensation
‘Tis not just or fair or right
A deep, blind darkness
With no light
 
And yet, a light must shine on somewhere
Maybe ‘twas left in that land so fair
Of make-believe and hopeful care
Maybe, if we discover those
Stories again
Maybe just maybe
We’ll discover a friend
 
What happened to the fairy tales?
Wherever did they go?
Maybe they stayed where they were
‘Twas we who wandered so…

Reality

by Amelia Rose
 
Things happen on soaps
And on the news
And it never really hits you
Those things can really be true
You take it for granted
And never truly know
How the world turns
How life really goes
And why should you notice?
It's not a big deal
To you nothing like that
Could ever be real
But then something happens
And it happens to you
What you thought
Could never
Really be true
Your life is changed
In an instant
A day
A moment
An hour
But it's forever anyway
Reality is hard
People are cruel
Unexpected changes
Are hard to outrule
But even though it happens
Life doesn't stop
You keep on living
Even if you're not on top
But even through trials
You're never alone
God is always with you
He knows how you've grown
