Hi Everyone! For those of you who don't know me, my name is Laura Mead! I am 17 years old, born on July 22nd, 1987. I made this web-page to showcase some of my writing pieces, because I don't often share my poetry and short stories with people, and because I think other people would enjoy them. So I hope you like everything! :) Be sure to sign my Guestbook at the bottom of the page! (Check out my new website, http://julywriter.tripod.com/)

No more tears/ I will not cry/ Keep those away who would offer comfort/ Push away the memories that come crowding through/ Sit and wait for them to die/ But they don't go so easily/ That's what he doesn't understand/ Because his heart is empty he expects mine to be so/ This selfish man removes himself from my pain, too much a coward to see my tears, afraid of the urge to wipe them away/ So now I've lost my best friend/ And who do I have to comfort me through this unbearable heartbreak?/ I am alone and lost, no purpose left to live by/ But I cannot let myself go or my life shall be worse/ But still I remember when he brushed my cheek with his thumb to stop my tears/ A tear is so easily brushed away/ And love is so unfair |

Dante's rose/
with petals of night/
and kisses inside/
thorns prick upon my soul/
my blood is poured to thee/
if you should take my heart/
and hold it in thy palm/
I should henceforth be forever yours/
With your dark looks/
and mysterious depths/
dangerous to me, yet still/
you own me as no other ever has/
I continue to return to thee/
wound myself upon thy rough edges/
And soon I shall die/
and you will not weep/
for even in thou deepest depth/
there is no soul to see/ |

Like the morning sun you rose in my world, shone your light on me every day/ With you in my sky I could not lose my way/ All the while there were blue skies and no rain to ruin my perfect existence/ Everything I did, I did to see the sun rise again tomorrow/ And then slowly each day you sat a little lower in the sky and clouds rolled in/ And the first rain drops to fall became my tears/ Your winds rushed in to dry them, wanting only to help, but you blew down my buildings, uprooted my trees, tossed my flowers 'round and 'round in a towering vortex of ruin/ And then darkness followed and ever since I've been lost, purposeless, wandering through the dark, unsure of my way, teetering on the edge of the foul precipice you created for me |

Need to stop this horrid pain/ Hoping, wishing, all in vain/ That you would say you love me again/ My heart holds on to your words/ All the things you said to me/ The lies meant to make me happy/ The things I still foolishly believe/ And no matter what you do/ I'll never stop loving you/ Deep down in my heart/ I can't help but think it's true/ That you really do love me/ And you're only just confused/ So here I'll wait and wait some more/ For you to come to your senses/ And all my feelings will remain untold/ Until you come back to me |

I want to feel your touch again, hold you and kiss you/ hear your voice so close to my face, feel your breath on my skin, your heart beating against my cheek/ I want to see your beautiful smile turned my way again/ I want the pain in my heart to stop so that I can feel the bliss that comes for the brief time we're together/ I long to feel those butterflies in my stomach that wake up when you're near me/ I want you |

Come home to me, my gentle wolf/ come back to me from amongst the trees/ run swiftly 'cross the grassy meadows and over forested hills/ under the moon and the sun, through cold winter snow and hot summer rays/ Oh my dear one, come home soon/ so unique among your kind, so unlike the others, gentle and kind/ come back to where you belong, young, strong wolf, tame among wilders/ come home soon, come back my wolf, my beautiful one, wise son of moon and stars/ raise your voice to the night sky as you come home to me |

I was once a child with foolish hopes/ which led to my heart's eventual death/ and because of someone's pity for me/ they sent you along to make me an angel/ with my new wings, I learned to fly/ and soon found myself soraing high/ I never dreamed of ever coming down/ I was your angel and yours alone/ Only you kept me afloat/ until my wings you cruelly broke/ I was no good as an angel, you said/ No more need of me you had/ I tumbled down, so fast, so hard/ An angel with broken wings and broken heart/ I cannot fly, though I try so hard/ and no one's at the bottom to break my fall |

You want me to get over you/ you want me to move on/ but there are some things I need from you/ before I can do anything at all/ I need to hear you tell me/ that you don't love me one bit/ or else I'll never believe it/ and so live on in torture/ with hopes that mean nothing/ And then I want you to say goodbye/ and promise not to call me/ promise not to miss me/ promise you won't come again/ in just a few months/ and tell me you want me back/ you'll make that mistake only once/ because I cannot do this again/ or else my heart will truly die/ And I do want to love again/ but I don't want to love a lie
