Foggy Nights by Ocean Myranda

9/9/2009

Every few nights a fog covers the sky,
Trying to see anything past your eye.

Going in a circle, completely lost,
Screaming out at all cost.

Voices surrounding, echoes sounding,
Trying to find your way.

Laughter surrounds you, at first it was only a few,
Waiting for this night to turn to day.

Blind as can be,
Wishing to be able to see.

The moon is gone as well as the stars,
Nothing to be seen, not even the lights of cars.

Losing all hope, wishing to cope,
Your heart is racing.

Nothing around here, everything to fear,
No idea of waht you're facing.

A voice cries out,
You try to shout.

Suddenly, silence is all that's there,
Goosebumps rising as well as your hair.

You keep walking, feeling someone stalking,
Fear grips your heart.

Trying to deal, a grip you feel,
You're bursting apart.

Struggling to become free,
The roaring of the sea.

Lost your footing, you hold on,
Realizing they are gone.

Looking down, afraid to drown,
Everything is clear.

Falling to your death, screaming your last breath,
"Wake up! Wake up dear!"

Too Late,
You've been shown your fate...

Six to One by Ocean Myranda

9/8/2009

One, Me, why me?
Of all people why choose me?
I don't think they are in the righ mind,
I'm not worth fighting over.

Six, you don't seem right,
I can't say anything, I haven't seen you,
I wish I knew who you truly are,
It's Six to One, what should I do?

Five, you're in college!
You've got your future at your finger tips,
You will find so many friends, not just me,
You're an amazing writer, but it's Six to Once, what is to be?

Four, you're so cool!
I've never met anyone who could deal with me,
Talking to you makes me feel so much better,
It's Six to One, with you I can live in a fantasy.

Three, you made my day!
You are super cool, I had a blast!
It was so much fun to see you again!
It's Six to One, I loved hanging with my past!

Two, You are absolutely awesome,
I have never met anyone like you!
Your nerves hide you, but I love the challenge of figuring you out,
It's Six to One, but I refuse to hurt you.

One, You know me,
You like me, I like you,
With you around, my heart beats like crazy.
It's still Six to Once, I'm not sure what to do!

One, Me, with so many choices,
I don't know what to do,
Four, Three, Two, One, I like the most!
Six guys to One girl. How do I choose one of you?!

I don't want to lose any of you,
If you read this, don't think I'm telling you to back off,
I'm just trying to think this through.
Six to One, My mind is going insane, this is rough!

Six, Five, Four, Three Two, and One,
All against me, One.
I hope this makes sense in the end,
I need a friend!

What should I do?
Should I choose one of them?
Should I stay single?
My head hurts, I'm so confused!

Eternal Sleep by Ocean Myranda

9/23/2009

Time for bed,
You can't wait to sleep.

You're thinking about your day,
Knowing you've got tomorrow, you're okay.

Wondering about regrets,
You have a few,
Hanging out with the one you like,
Tomorrow, you'll work up the courage to kiss them.

Turning off the light,
Snuggling in your bed so tight.

You turn on your radio,
Listening to your thoughts.

Thinking about them,
Knowing you'll have tomorrow,
You'll be fine,
Planning out the next day.

Drifting slowly into sleep,
Your thoughts not making sense.

Losing yourself to your dream,
Suddenly, nothing is what it may seem.

You look at yourself,
You have a feeling this is real,
You know it's too late,
Walking over to yourself.

Feeling your skin, so cold,
Knowing your soul was sold.

Trying to take out the knife,
Looking for the murderer.

You see them, the one you love,
They broke in,
They stabbed your heart,
Now you sleep.

Crying, you float away,
There is not another day.

Rest in Peace,
In your eternal sleep.

(Don't waste your days wishing you had the guts to do something, you never know when your last day will be here. Live life to the fullest and do things you never thought or imagined you could do. -Ocean Myranda)

Dark Secret by Ocean Myranda

9/23/2008

Darkness all around me,
I feel you, suffocate,
No one else is around my misery,
Can I give anyone the key to the gate?

No one realizes the pain,
The weakness that I feel,
The darkness swallows with vain,
My nightmares feel so real.

The shadows that hide,
The tears I hold back,
The old me, has died,
Everything is black.

I run, but I still see it,
It is hard to face,
It pulls me in, bit by bit,
It takes me back, back to that place!

From the memories, I try to run,
They are destroying me slowly, not fast,
I’m growing weaker; I know they’ve won,
It haunts me, my past.

The sadness, it has brought,
I feel the guilt,
I can feel the inside rot,
The darkness inside me, it built.

I feel so insane,
These words are my last,
Darkness has won, my tears fall like rain,
I can’t run anymore, it has won, my past.

My past has won,
I’m sure this is true,
The damage is done,
My heart, darkness controls it too.

I’m leaving now,
You may not want to see,
You might not want to know how,
Today is the death of me.

Thanks for being here,
Goodbye, it’s time, I’m untied,
I have no fear,
It’s time that I died.

I'm Sorry by Ocean Myranda

9/20/2008

I don’t know what to do.
How do I make you see?

I’m so in love with you.
I wish I knew what was wrong with me!

My heart has been broken so many times.
I regret my past.

I can’t speak, I feel as silent as mimes.
I am who gets loved last.

On the inside, I’m dying.
I feel hidden, within me, so deep.

I’m so broken, that I keep crying.
I’m ready, off the cliff, I leap.

I’ve hurt so many.
I can’t live this way.

No one wants the unlucky penny.
After everything that’s happened, I don’t know what to say.

I know he’s far away from here.
I just can’t cheat.

Every time I talk to him, he feels so near.
I just wish, soon, we meet.

I love you still.
I just wish you’d be there.

Hurting you the way I did, I feel like I kill.
Life is so unfair!

I’m ready to die.
I keep trying, but it always leads to pain.

All I’ve done is cry, cry, and cry!
I feel so insane!

I will always love you!
I will always love him!

I wish you can understand what I’m going thru.
You and he are not one of them!

I’m sorry, I still love you,
Please try to understand, You mean everything to me,
This is the end,
Please try to forgive me too!

Black Rose by Ocean Myranda

9/20/2008

The darkness of your petals,
The sweetness of your scents,
The beauty that dwells inside you,
All your life well spent.

The morning dew on your leaves,
You sparkle in the sun,
So many secrets deep within your roots,
I suppose I’ve only just begun.

You hold many stories,
You have many thorns on your stem,
The secrets you keep may never be told,
You never let anyone know especially, them.

Only few people understand,
We are the ones, who feel your pain,
For when your life is done,
We can feel how you’ve been slain.

Your darkness is beautiful,
You are like me, I suppose,
Your inner beauty is what I see,
The beauty of a black rose.

Fuming by Ocean Myranda

9/15/2009

Sitting here listening to you,
You've given me a headache,
I'm going to scream,
Get away from me!

Past memories are haunting,
You keep hitting that scar,
I've made mistakes before,
You've ruined my trust for you.

After everything you've done,
You think I'm going to forgiv you?
You must be a bigger idiot than I thought,
I'll never forget what you did!

I told you everything,
I trusted you,
You broke that,
Now you're going to pay.

If I were you,
I'd stay away from me,
You'll never see the light of day,
If you see me, just turn around.

You're really ticking me off now,
Shut your mouth, I don't need to listen,
No one wants to hear you talk,
Just leave me alone!

Eventually, you'll catch the hint,
You'll learn to go away,
Don't push me, I'm not happy,
Just shut up! You're and idiot!

Insulting you through this poem,
I guess that's kind of rude,
Then again you backstabbed me,
Stay away from me, you're no longer welcomed here.

Almost by Ocean Myranda

9/15/2009

Being here in your arms today,
My heart almost busted.

Sitting with you as we sway,
I almost lost my breath.

Talking and laughing with you,
I almost pushed you away.

I was brutally honest too,
I almost couldn't think.

I talked a lot,
I almost poured my heart out.

I did not mean to scare you, I really did not,
I almost laughed myself to death.

I've never been so happy,
I almost found myself.

You being with me,
I almost forgot where we were.

Having you with me here,
I almost lost track of time.

Our faces touching so near,
I almost kissed you.

I wish I was brave enough too,
I almost yelled at myself.

I really wanted to,
I was almost brave enough.

Nerves by Ocean Myranda

9/14/2009

She sees him in the hall,
He's not hard to miss,
Everyone including him, is so tall!

Everytime he is near,
Her heart beat races,
She's afraid to show her fear.

Her heart beat skips,
She loses her breath,
Quietly biting her lips.

Screaming inside her mind,
Her nerves shaking inside,
So nervous, causing her to go blind.

Chosen by him, but she doesn't know why,
So many thoughts racing in her mind,
With him, time slows and nothing goes by.

Every second lasting longer than the last,
Being in his arms, her heart goes crazy,
Holding onto every second that goes past.

Never thinking this could happen to her,
Everything going great,
Seeing only him, everything's a blur.

Knowing not to get attached, she pushes away,
Feeling him pull her back,
Slowly allowing him to do so, she starts to sway.

Nervous as ever,
Next to him,
Hoping this lasts forever.

911 by Ocean Myranda

9/13/2009

911, a famous number one should know,
To call for help,
The police, fire department, and hospital you go,
A quick call on the phone, rather than a yelp!

911, a time on a clock,
You've got AM and PM times,
Nothing to lock,
Ironic if there were crimes.

911, a disastor caused by men,
Who would plan the plane,
Destruction to the towers, Bin Laden,
Who should help, Suddan Husain.

No one should forget those numbers at all,
Never forget that time of need,
For family, friends, and neighbors, we must stand tall,
We will fight back and win, This warning you shall heed!

A Story by Ocean Myranda

9/13/2009

An angel born under the stars,
Almost dying, she was blue.

They saved her life, this time,
Growing up was quite hard.

Never having a fatherly figure,
Made her heart a stone.

Jealous of those girls with fathers,
She never knew it would be this hard.

Her wings grew so beautifully,
Pure white with silver tips.

No one noticed her though,
Of course, until after she changed.

Her halo glittered in the sun,
Her wings glowed so bright.

Then something attacked her,
Her wings torn and black hand prints covered them.

Her halo bent and broken,
Her clothes shredded to pieces.

Her heart broken,
Her soul ripped.

Trying to hide what happened,
Still, no one noticed her.

That broken and fallen angel,
Cowering in fear in a corner.

Knowing she can't escape,
Trying to hide, but being found again.

DAy after day,
The torture continued.

Everyday her wings would be darker,
Losing her white wings, turning black.

Her halo dull with scratches,
Her wings black and torn.

Noticed by people now,
She is just being ignored and abandonded.

The people that do talk to her,
Use her and trick her.

She tried to love once,
Her wings started to fade to white.

Her halo was beginning to glow,
Her wings beginning to grow back.

Until she was alone again,
Wings back to black.

Her halo dull and scratched,
Her wings torn and broken.

Looking in the mirror,
She slammed her fist into it.

Bleeding and crying,
Crying with pain of who she is.

She lost her hope,
She couldn't fly.

She gave up,
She jumped, and still no one cared.

Why Me? by Ocean Myranda

9/13/2008

Why does everything bad happen to me?
Why am I the one who has to deal with the pain?
Living in darkness, there is no time to be happy.

People laugh and mock with vain.
I feel blind, I can’t see.
I wonder what you are going to gain.

Everyone runs around filled with glee.
Maybe this time I’ll hit a vein.
It hurts like a sting from a bee.

My heart pounds in my chest, it broke!
Life itself is crap!
Words and people know how to choke!

You read this and think it’s a joke!
I’m already stuck in the trap!
You make fun, laugh, and poke!

Life itself is worthless, it’s true.
Trying to hide my tears,
The lump in my throat grew.

I’ve been destroyed by my fears.
Help, I don’t know what to do!
I yell, I wonder if anyone hears.

I live in darkness, how about you?
You say, “Wow, down the wrong path, she veers”
How could you mock me too?

I don’t understand why,
You get all the joy!
You think you’re so sly!

I don’t want to lie,
All I can say is oy.
Can I please die?

People, I can’t stand!
I hate them!
If I could, they all would be banned!

People think they are a gem.
They ruined this land!
Too bad I can’t push them off the rim.

They should really stay off the strand.
They are the thorny stem.
This is the end.

Death is to be,
That’s all I can say,
Why Me?

Goodbye, My Friend, but I Still Love You by Ocean Myranda

9/13/2008

To have you in my life,
Means everything to me,
I loved you once, loved you twice,
I think you’d agree.

I’ve done everything for you,
I guess it wasn’t good enough,
All the chances you didn’t take,
Going through that time was tough.

Our separate ways, we went,
I just wasn’t the one you want,
My heart ached for your love,
Everyone knew, but it was me, which they taunt.

Now, I’ve moved on,
I found someone new,
I’m very happy now,
What about you?

You were one of my favorite friends,
We still talk, but it’s not that same,
I guess you will never know,
You just had to blow out that flame.

I still love you, whether you know it or not,
You’re still my best friend,
Now, I’m happy with the one I’m with,
I hate to say it, but
This is the end.

NIghtmare by Ocean Myranda

9/11/2009

Laying in bed, crying myself to sleep.
Slowly losing conciousness without a peep.
Not knowing how much time is here,
Lost in this dream, so deep.

Alone on a dark street so near.
No one around, but voices I hear.
Looking around to find where they are,
Everything pulsing with fear.

Trying to find a place not too far.
Hearing, but not seeing the car.
Suddenly, a screech! What was that?!
Running towards the sound, I hope this isn't war!

There on the side of the road it sat.
The lifeless body of a cat.
I went over and held him in my arm,
Crying in his fur, I sat.

I know this wants harm.
I jolted at the alarm.
I woke up crying with that cat,
Sitting on the side of the road,
If only this had been a nightmare.
I guess that's that.

Home by Ocean Myranda

9/11/2009

Ever feel like you don't belong?
Just never being able to do anything right?
Trying so hard, but still doing everything wrong?
Like, you're surrounded in darkness looking for light?

The simple truth is,
No one is the same,
I promise you this,
You're not alone in this game.

Looking into the sky,
For hopes of something high,
Keeping your head down,
Hoping you don't drown.

Walking down the road,
You're lost in this world,
Carrying this heavy load,
In the corner, you're curled.

Searching for a place you call your own,
Can't figure out where to go,
Feeling so alone,
Running from your foe.

I know what you want,
I do not wish to taunt,
There is nowhere else to roam,
You just want to go home.

A home, a place to live,
Wondering where you should be,
A place where I can give,
I want you to be with me.

A home is a place,
Never being alone,
Trying to keep the pace,
A place you can call your own.

Love will be there,
No pain to bear,
There will be hope,
A place easy to cope.

You just want a place to go,
This way you won't have to roam,
Nobody there to tell you "no",
A place to be called your home.

Broken Soul by Ocean Myranda

9/11/2009

Lost, confused, hurt,
Broken, fearful, anger,
Useless, alone, unwanted.

Dead inside, lonely as ever,
Broken inside, love, never,
Hurt inside, angry forever.

Fake, push over, polite,
Nice, kind, happy,
Joke, weak, trusted.

Fake outside, I lied,
Joke outside, I hide,
Weak outside, I tried.

Fake on the outside, dead on the inside,
A joke on the outside, broken on the inside,
Weak on the outside, hurt on the inside.

So much confusion causes me to be lost,
So much I lose, but at what cost?
I can't handle any of this.

Slowly everything is being taken away,
Time is mocking me again, it is!
So much pain from being hurt, makes me sway.

Being swallowed by darkness why?
Nothing can be shown in this sky.
This day mocks me with vain.

Laughing at me, knowing I hurt so much,
My broken heart, I'm in pain.
Not knowning why this is, but my heart I clutch.

Knowing it's still here,
Waiting for a tear,
Go ahead! Laugh at me!

I know, I'm just an empty hole,
Nothing left to be,
I'm just a broken soul.

Hidden (The Real Me) by Ocean Myranda

9/11/2008

People think they know me,
They think that I’m easy,
If only they could see,
How I’m not free.

They just don’t see the fact that they are wrong,
Even if my life sounds like a depressing song,
You think that I’m not weak, but strong,
I just hope it won’t be long.

They tell me to get over you,
I can’t though; they don’t know what my heart is going through,
If they just stop judging me then they would get a clue,
I just want to be happy, not blue.

I need you to be here,
For you, I fear,
I don’t want to push you away, I want you near,
I am scared to show my feelings, sometimes I wish I could disappear.

My friends and family think they know,
They think that I am always happy and so,
No matter what, I just want to go,
It’s been so long since I’ve been able to let my feelings show.

If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be as happy as I am,
Feels like my sadness is hidden by a dam,
I’m no longer alone, for the shepherd has found his lamb,
No more doors being shut with a slam.

No longer in water that is over my head,
No longer having to be filled with dread,
No longer having tears shed,
All the horrible feelings have fled.

People think they know me,
They think that I’m easy,
If only they could see,
That I am now free!

Me or Her by Ocean Myranda

9/11/2008

Being together is fun,
Being together is great,
I love you so much,
I wish you would appreciate.

When we talk you make me laugh,
When we talk I can trust you,
I love you so much,
I wish you would love me too.

You said you were over her,
You said you loved me,
I love you so much,
I wish you could just see.

I already knew you weren’t over her,
I already knew you still liked her,
I love you so much,
I wish I was the one you would prefer.

She was the one, who broke up with you,
She was the one, who started to become obsessed again,
I love you so much,
I wish you could see how I am in vain.

There are two of us you like,
There are two of us you have to choose between,
I love you so much,
I wish it was I that you would be seen.

If you truly love her more,
If you truly love me more,
I love you so much,
I wish you would choose the one you adore.

I’ve said this in every line,
I’ve said this to you all the time,
I love you so much,
I just want you to know loving her more than me is not a crime.

I love you with all my heart,
I love you always and forever,
I love you so much,
I wish you would love me however.

I love you,
I love you,
I love you,
I LOVE YOU!

You Wouldn't Miss Me by Ocean Myranda

9/11/2008

If I died, who would notice?
If I died who would care?
Who would say, “I miss her”?
Would anyone be in despair?

You say you would notice.
You say you would care.
You say you would say, “I miss her”.
You say you would be in despair.

How can I tell if you’re being true?
How can I tell that you would?
How can I tell you would say, “I miss her”?
How can I tell that you understood?

You say that you would never lie to me.
You say that you would.
You say that you’ll always be saying, “I miss her” to everyone.
You say that you have understood.

No one would miss me?
No one would give me the time of day?
No one would say, “I miss her”?
No one would stay?

You say that you would miss me.
You say that you would give me the time of day.
You say that you would say, “I miss her”.
You say that you would stay.

You say I’m all these things that aren’t true!
I can’t stand my life!
You just stand there and lie to me, like a never ending story!
Instead of lying to me, just go ahead and stab me with a knife!

It would be less painful to be stabbed than to be lied to and crushed!
You lie and lie until you think I’m heart broken!
You have no heart, so you take mine and crush it into small pieces!
I’ve been crushed and crushed by all the lies you’ve spoken!

I’ve been killed and hurt over and over again.
Why would you care though?
I’m already dead in your eyes.
Why would you think I’m worth a “hello”?

I’m sick of the lies!
I’m sick of the joke!
I’m sick of how you call me things I’m not!
I’m sick of all the things you do that choke!

Just ignore, that is the best thing to do.
I’m not worth your time.
Go and have your fun, you’ll find someone better.
Loving me and making me happy, is a crime.

Goodbye world.
Goodbye all.
Goodbye to everyone.
Goodbye, I’m ready to fall.

If I died, who would notice?
If I died who would care?
Who would say, “I miss her”?
Would anyone be in despair?

BOREDOM by Ocean Myranda

9/11/2008

Boredom is something that is common in teens.

Of all the people in the world teens get bored fast.

Running and jogging up a hill, most teens will not.

Everything is boring for a teen.

Diving in a pool can be refreshing, but it can get boring too.

Over eating and over sleeping are common in a teen.

Me on the other hand, I am never bored, not me, no, I don’t ever get bored.

(Yeah Right!)
