Just a recreation of a dead thread which I feel shouldnt be. Mostly, just post whatever poems you have. You dont need a rhyme for takeing your time, but I usuly will match the sound of my word batch. And for the tune thats stuck in your head, post it here! Of corse, I'm not shy. I'll post up one i've had for a while. Keep in mind, this was writen for an online relationship, so we hadent of phsicaly met, but this could also be for a single person looking for the special someone. When a star is born and the night is young, I know your there. When the sky is blue and the sun is strong, I will always care. While the waters sparkled and the waves where calm, This I always knew. But for once in my life, with your hand on my palm, I wish I was there with you. When the clouds are dark and the rain begins to pour, I know your fears. When the wind is blowing and the birds dont soar, I know your tears. When the sun just wont shine, and the shadows cover all, I know your upset. But no matter your feelings, For you, I will fall... If we had only met. I dream of you always and cant lose you from my mind. (If I did, it'd be a nightmare.) As I search for you now, I feel like I'm blind. Oh, how much for you I care. As I wonder the lands and look around, I'll always think of you. My only wish is that somewhere out there... You think of me to Well, Thats my two cents. Now let's make a fourtion!
This is a poem about being gay and in the closet. I dont have a title for it yet though No one knows who I truly am, Because I have woven a web of lies. If someone looked hard they would know, But no one really tries. I feel trapped in my own life, I'm dying to get free. It kills me that no one knows, The real and true me. I put on a brave face so no one can see, The pain I feel in my heart. I wish I could tell someone, That the pain is tearing me apart. The pain of lying day after day, Without an end near. I scream a silent plea, But no one can hear. As time goes by the pain grows dull, And I begin to heal. The anguish I once felt, I now hardly feel. There is still a place made by the pain, A gap in my core. The gap will always be there, Even though the pain is no more. I accept that I lead two lives, I must to get by. But one day I truly hope, I will no longer have to lie. It sucks I know. Don't flame please
Dont worry. *pulls out a Fire Extinquisher* I'll keep the heat off you. :lol: Anyway, I found another little tidbit I had laying around, and I thought I'd post that too! This is actuly a song. I think it's rock, but I'm not quite sure. I do know it was inspiered by Green Day, though I'm not a big fan of them personaly. This was aimed to point out Socity and there 'need' for popularity. One more note to add is that there should be a tapping or ticking throughout the entire song that can be heard, no matter how loud the music gets (inspiered from an old music box I used to love when I was a kid. he music would play, but I always heard the ticking in it). Toy Box Look into the Toy Box, my freinds, LOOK! At the little people! They go around amungst there lives, but there liveing is so febal. WATCH! as they wake up and walk to there closets. Watch as they pull out... THE HOTTEST THING! THE COOLEST THING! THE GREATEST THING! THE SAME thing. [Guitar and ticking solo.] Out they go into the little tiny streets and wave hello to there neighbours. They think there so good, they think there the best, but there exactly the same as the others! [beat/pause] Not a single one of them ever guesses at all that they arnt... THE SINGLE! THE ONLY! THE ALONE! THAT fears. [Music slows, but ticking remains constant.] They preocupy themselfs with the trivial things, mostly to avoid the unknown. or maby they simply arnt aware to the big idea that... [Music speeds back up again, and the ticking grows louder to add effect.] THEY ARE NOT ALOOOOOONE! [Guitar and Ticking solo, the Gutair now louder to match the ticking's volume.] Look into the toybox, freinds, look at the little people. (Liveing there lives, but there lives are so febal.) Now look into the mirror, take a look at ourselfs, and then maby you'll... REALIZE! IDEALIZE! REALIZE WHERE NOT ALOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE! We are not alone! [everything pauses, including the ticking.] [Spoken] Welcome to the Toybox. [Music and ticking continues. One last Gutair and Ticking solo, then the music slows to a stop. The ticking goes on for a few more seconds befor it too slows to a stop.]
your first one sounded like a pop song at least in my head. Im writing or attmepting to write a poem right now...
This one I did just the other day... Bleeding Hearts Slit my wrists baby, cut me long and deep Don't worry honey, I won't make a peep Watching the crimsom liquid pool and drip Getting so high, man is this a trip The cold sweeps over me like new fallen snow My lips burn with desire and begin to glow No need to worry about the past No need to feel loveless at last Once full of hope, full of love, full of passion Now my heart beats its final action No regret, no remorse, no trust No risk, no heat, no lust Finally no pain, no sorrow, no sad goodbyes Lasting numbness that tell me no lies
Well, it's time for my daily Improv exersice, and I thought I'd try and come up with a pome on the spot. None if this is practice, so bare with me if it's a little rough... Woke up this morning with a sweat. I try to figure out what to regret. Brother comes in to yell me awake, but since I already am, I start to shake. I tell him i'm tierd, he responds 'Movies!' He continues to yell, but I ask kindly (I said please) to stop. and let me rest. I'm not feeling all my best. I wanna ask him for a simple request but he's just the little bugger who's always a pest. Now i'm awake, there already gone. I'm not too hungry (normly, this lasts perty long). I look at the clock, it's around six thirty. When I walk around, my head is all hurty. But I finnaly make it to the laptop in the kitchen so I can exersice Improve and show i'm really... Shoot, I dont curse! >.< ...Well, anyway, there's my exersice for the mo-...er...afternoon.
Okay, here it goes...... I'm Already There I can never comfort you, The way a loved one should, I'm with you in everything you do, I pray that's understood. When you need someone to talk to, When no-one else will hear, I'll always there for you, Sitting close beside you, near. Don't ask me why I left you, You can't concieve it yet, I'm humbled to have known you, I'm thankful that we met. Just close your eyes and think of me, If you're in need of care, No matter what the cause may be, I'm already there.
I feel such an emo... Here's a couple of mine: Letting Go Do you know my pain? My heart hurts, Burning and breaking. I can’t let go. Seeing you with him, Makes me want to disappear. I want to be blind. I can’t let go. I can’t take what I said back, And I meant what I said. Did it scare you? I don’t want to let go. I can’t make you love me, I can’t change your mind. But I can’t bear the thought, Of letting you go. It was based on personal experience, after telling a straight friend of mine my feelings for her. Dear [Name] I wish saying “I love you”, Could make you love me. But it can’t. And when you leave, And I can no longer see you, I know my heart will break. And only you can pick up the pieces, And put them back how they used to fit. But telling you this, Would burden you. And I love you too much to let that happen. I don’t want you to feel like you can’t turn and leave, Leave my shattered excuse for a heart on the floor. Because I know you don’t need me. And I love you, More than I love myself. This I wrote for that particular person as well. I'm not going to put her name on here in case she finds them (somehow). But My "poetry", if you can call it that, is mostly non-rhyming and incredibly whiny. Thought I'd share them anyway.
LoveLongLost (for _______ and his new found “love” and new found "love" long lost) dont you worry about me should i worry about you boy? and your new found love and your new found love long lost to the barron seas oh doesnt that sound familiar? just like i lost you ages ago over the telephone WIRE but it was over just as fast just as fast as this whole ordeal fell onto our laps just as fast as you tried to recover now i must have a LONG LONG LAUGH at you and your new found LOVE LONG LOST............
Well, I just wrote another thing recently. It looks like a relationship problem, and it sorta is...but it's brothers, not boy/girl Friend. ...but It looks remarkably like it... Playin' Games [Couris] Playin' games with my heart n' mind! Playin' games with my body and soul! Playin' games with my head n' mind! Playin' games and feeling' all alone! [repeat] Your beggin' and messin' 'round with me, pleadin' and whinin', just let me be! when will I ever feel like I'm free with you hangin' around! When I run, you just give chase, when I hide, you find my place, when I decline, you quicken your pace. is no place sound?! [Couris] Here we go, I try it again, I try to fight, I try an' defend. Wont break my spirit, but gave it a bend. You got me down! Then it's done, I walk away. You hold me tight an' try to make me sway but now I see that it's just a game you play. I'm nothing but a hound! [Couris 2xs] Playing games with my head and Mind. Playing games with my body and soul. when will I ever, ever find whats never told?
I posted this in the other thread with no response so.... With the modern marvel of copy and paste: These two poems were a project for theater class. We were supposed to write an epitaph for ourselves and one for another person, and they were supposed to be from the point of view of the dead person. Mine are about myself and my future love. Here I lay, down to sleep. What was life but just a dream? A nightmare of hate, A web of pain, And now it's over, Gone with me. I died a death no one should know, Buried deep in the winter snow. My love, he thought that I was dead, When he buried my dizzy head. And then I froze; the pain was great. They tried to help, it was too late. But the pain is gone, the peace has come, I have become comfortably numb. +++++++++++++ The last five years went by so fast, I loved her so, I though we'd last. But then my evil scared her away, I can't believe she died this way. By my hand her life did go, Before I buried her in the winter snow. And now, I'll take my life away, In this final light of day. I take a bottle of sleeping pills, My body shakes with violent chills, Now the pain is gone, the peace has come, I have become comfortably numb. Ten points if anyone gets the song/band I reference in those poems. =) <3
This was just one poem i wrote when i was pissed off. All my other poems are about lost love Madness inside this little house unknown to the outside world anger thats held deep within mad till my inner soul curled I just want to scream throw things and shout want to tell my whole story just let it all out With the pain that i hold i know one day ill snap surrounded by friends i will lie in your lap Turned insane by this world and the secrets i hold as i breath my last breath my whole world turns cold!!
