I guess not many gamers read poems. It is sad, I think.

The environment
When nature sees us
I think I'll go out
And buy a prius

I'll go hang out
With my good friend Michael
And together
We'll recycle

Forget boring fish
Ditch icthyology
My favorite subject
Is ecology

The environment's great
The best I have seen
It is my favorite thing
To just go green

And it sure is a shame
That in 2004
We did not have the option
To vote for Al Gore

I wrote it myself. =)

Like TLV, I like my own poems. But I like two of them. I CANNOT DECIDE!

Numb Immortality


What have I done?
What have I become?
I want to try and run
But to this illness, I succumb
And in the end it matters not
I feel my soul begin to rot

For I can't feel
So, what is real?
I cannot stop to kneel
But I am numb
I want to scream
But my lips are dumb
My life is coming apart
At the seams
My sleep haunted by darkened dreams

My ruined heart, my ruined soul
But I cannot feel the breaking cold
Breaking down, the final seal
A pact on my grave
As I begin to rant and rave

I miss the touch, a faint allure
Pain, joy, time, I would still endure
And I wish I hadn't come to this
Dreaming of the things I miss

Numb is immortality
I am blind
So how can I see?
Away from the bustle of regular life
But I still feel misery and strife

A cavernous hole within
It's eating me up inside
I cannot hear the din
I cannot heal my mind
Tearing me limb from limb
I can't feel the pain
I stand on the rim
But still, nothing remains

I cannot feel the pass of time
But what I'm doing is not a crime
I wish it was, I wish it was
But nothing anyone says or does
Can free me from the curse
Or is it a gift?
As my wounded self, I nurse
I ponder at this growing rift

A fiery burning
My endless yearning
That I could feel the pain
But it's just so surreal
And so it shall remain

Am I cruel and evil?
Or am I willed and strong?
I've been here since medieval
But somehow it didn't feel long
I wish I could feel something
But it's so hard to tell
It's been so long since nothing
But I'm still going to hell

A gift of immortality
A curse, mayhap, could it be?
For so long, feel is what I've sought
But for so long, I have found but naught
Laughing, loving, screaming, crying
Watching others slowly dying
And I wish, somehow
That I could feel
That I'd never made that accursed deal

My life is worthless anymore
But it can never end
I wish I could open the door
Your strength, could you lend?
I cannot bear the weight of this
Watching the others' elating bliss

Which is the final one?
Who has lost and who has won?
Please, give me a sign
To open my mind
And let me go across the line

I've waited for so long
I've tried to be so strong
But I really wish that I was dead
Or is it all just in my head

The freedom to die
The freedom to live
But which is the curse
And which is the gift



One Bitter Winter's End


This bitter winter's end
I welcome you, hello my friend
While I write, this frigid night
The winds moan and no help shall be received
But we shall not lose hope, somehow we'll cope
Over the screams of the bereaved
And as we tie the gallows rope

And the chill, us it will kill
Just like an icy sickness
And I pray to God, that somehow I can fix this
And our souls we've sold
To the shatt'ring cold
In the fire is our lust
And the biting winds, through the night they'll call us

We are trapped, our greatest fear
Is not to see our loved ones dear
And the winds will blow
With us all in tow
Right through the chilling fall of snow

It's just our time, there's no reason nor a rhyme
And the slicing winter's gale
Shakes the trees and souls, so frail
And at the end of the darkest tunnel
There is no light, just the agony of cold
And we'll still be doing this when we're eighty years old
Why did we sign up for this, digging six feet under

And the icy snow came
Snuffing us out like a candle's flame
And the ice will crack!
Like a pistol shot
Through the cold embrace
And the deadliest attack, the most accursed is this place
And leave us there to rot
Of our lives there's not a trace

And the bells a'ringing
The souls a'singing
They're calling us to hell
And I just hope that we'll all be treated well

Our final wheezing, icy gasps
Coughing out the final task
To deliver this missive, do it fast
So we can rest in peace, at long last
And so, this bitter winter's end
I bid farewell to you, my friend

That I did love, I bring thee proof:
That till I loved, I did not love enough.
That I shall love thee always, I offer thee
That love is life, and life hath immortality.

This, dost thou doubt, sweet?
Then have I
Nothing to show
But Calvary.

Emily Dickinson.
Lllooooooong story.
