Okay, these are getting posted here on a whim. I gots nothing better to do, xd. Feel free to comment on anything you wish. I start off with a poem I wrote one day. The syllables aren't perfect, but it gets the words across. Enjoy.
Justice is Dead
Justice is dead, I hatefully cry All we can do is try to survive. Cause love is just a beautiful lie, For all things in life must one day die.
Along the way we learn things too hard, Whisper out the way to stop my heart. Trying to redeem yourself is a road best not taken. Because in the end, you will be forsaken.
I told you how I felt you see, But all you did was lie to me. I lost my trust in you today, How I did should go without say.
A haze of happiness shall not fool, Those who truly know the rules. This game we play shall never end, For life is too cruel to let us mend.
So I send you my wishes, hopes, dreams, I will never be all that I seem.
~Dustin

The way I feel
I won't forget the way you speak. The way you act, it makes me weak. All these things I want to say, Can never express in the perfect way.
I remember how we used to be, Emotions flooding in an endless sea. But life has given me a gift, The feelings I have escalating so swift.
The love we share is a powerful thing, It makes me want to cry and sing. I wish I only could make you feel, These things that make me glad it's real.
I know I'm not a perfect man, But I want you to understand. I'll be with you through thick or thin, Regardless of actions, goodness or sin.
~Dustin

Beyond Riches
In the dead of the night, when the clock strikes twelve, I picked a book out off the shelf. Twas about a man who always sought, A thing that never could be bought. That thing that humans find essential, For the increase in happiness is exponential. He tried and tried, but could not buy; He had only been telling himself a fatal lie. I learned an important less on from this very tale. A truth that we should always heed, Before we actually commit the deed. True love can never be bought, But until the end of time, shall always be sought.

This Air We Breathe
Look around, what do you see? Is this really what you want? These black skies, this red earth Your mind, this has to haunt You knew that hell was rising Though you took part anyhow Well sir, I must inform you To you, I'll never bow The deaths, you've caused of many The lives, you've saved of none The minds, you've changed of very few Your ways, I choose to shun You kill us all so carelessly Without a thought, you fire You told us we would grow as one Then proved yourself a liar Well we will band together Bring down your reign of power Make this world a better place And in the end, you'll cower.

No Reason
All I ask for is the truth, Lies are but forbidden fruit. Speak, hurt, break you may, You'll live to see another day.
But did you know my feelings were real? For what you did was truly evil. I thought you knew, you said you cared, But all I got were hateful stares.
I'm tired of this life I live, This warning I hope you will heed. I have nothing left to give, All you have is envy and greed.
I swear I loved you, I gave you trust. I say kill me, if you must. I lost my purpose long ago. How I longed for reason so.
But life gives us no reasons, no promises. Not even any miniscule solaces. I'm tired of this thing I need. This day I will no longer seize.

Awesome! I love No Reason since it reminds me so much of my favorite anime character, Ranma! And This Air We Breathe, because it broaches a vry interesting topic.

From a personal experience, rhyming is very, VERY hard. Congrats! You make it flow with rhyming, I'm envious. I usually just slap words that sound nice together and screw the rhyming. xD
