Post all your poews an have some discussion here!

Where the wind blows...


The wind, you cannot control.

But, is it what you really think?

Put your mind to the test.

You’ll able to control the ice.

But, the ice will shatter and it will be a blue cold.

Pray, you’ll be able to control the sky and the light.

But, the sky may fall...

The Light will be blinding

Lose all of your senses; you can control the darkness...

But, you will lose all of your memories.

All will be violet darkness.

But, is that your true desire?

Wasn’t it to control the wind?

You do not need to do all of that.

Just let the wind blow its way.

You will be able to control it...someday.

Wow, good... a "moral-boost" poem... ^_^

Rose on the peak

A Rose on the peak, on a mountain so high

with no one eager to get it, I don't wonder why

The Rose is beautiful, glimmering, a great sight to see

the urge to get it, the sensation to be free

Starting from the bottom, I'll do my best

Thinking of the Rose, there's no time for rest

I'll get it and cherish it, such a unique sight

If I'm stumble or I fall, I'll stand up and fight

The jagged rocks, the winding paths, nothing will stand my way

The wild animals, the harsh weather, nothing will ruin this day

Half-way has passed, my body full of pain

But as the saying goes, no pain, no gain

I've weakned, I'm starving, I'm full of fatigue

I remember the Rose, nothing's out of my league

Only a few steps away, nothing within range

A thick mist shrouds all, not thinking it's strange

At last I see, the light and a figure

A figure of the Rose, gets brighter and brighter

The Rose is now here, now within my grasp

But somehow I can't believe, the flaw that has clasped

My thoughts, my instinct, my foolish physical view

The Rose is a fake, for fools without a clue.

Sometimes...
Sometimes I just sit
Waiting and thinking
Life goes by to fast
But some things forever last
Friendship
So before you say goodbye
to someone,
Think...
It could be the last time
Just...
Atleast once in your life,
Sit down for a moment
Think about life
How it's build
How special it is
Don't waste it...
Try to survive,
As long as you can
Cause life is a gift
You'll never forget
You and me
Together we are

Free

This is one I found somewhere, I think it's awfully sad :( (I translated it into English):

I'm Mary
I'm only three
I have a dad
A bad dad who slaps me
I hate him...

I'm Mary
I'm only three
Tonight
My father murdered me

Here is something stupid:

I Fell

I fell,
Blacking out,
The sky turning a dark purple,
The grass a bright red,
Little people scurring,
No one sees,
No one hears,
No one cares of my cries,
As I fell.

It was inspired from me always cryng, and no one helping.

Blue


Blue is the color of rolling waves.
Blue is the color of lovely days.
Blue is the color of a lonely friend.
Blue are the heavens that stretch to no end.
Blue are the eyes of true loves first kiss.
Blue are the mountains covered in mist.
Blue petaled flowers are my garden's delight.
Blue on the wings of a Jaybird in flight.









Autumn
Warm, colorful
Smells of firewood burning
Chilling, falling, resting
Stark, barren
Winter.

Friends Can Be There
Friends Can Be Gone
This Was Deadly Caused
By The Voice Of One Song

Friends Can Have Relationships
But Once They Bend
Before You Know It
The Relationship Ends The Way It Begins

Friends Can Be There
Friends Can Always Be Gone
But You Never Thought
That Your Voice
Made The Relationship Fall With The Song

But Once You Think About It
It Doesn't Hurt At All
Just Like The Song
The Relationship Never Belonged

I always make romantic poems... I posted this one b4, but what the heck =P



Hunter

I'm going to get you if it's the last thing I do

I have the instinct, I promise I'll get you

you can't run away, and you can't even hide

you can't even conceal the feeling inside

you might fool me with some of your tricks

you might even avoid me with a barrier that's thick

you avoided my bait, and escaped my own traps

you even avoided me with your memory lapse

but why do I ask, why do you even run away?

I'm not going to hurt you, you're in such disarray

such lunacy; to hurt, is such a waste of time

unless love is a commitment that's really a crime...

Great poetry! Heres one I wrote. Its about pokemon. Enjoy!

The Origin of the Orbs

From two shining orbs comes an eternal glow,
Foraged 'neath the earth below.
When two ancient pokemon raged on the earth,
this is how the orbs were birthed.

When fire erupted from under the ground,
and the seas waves were all around.
The fire dragon came from the earths core,
and the water monster from the oceans floor.

The two clashed in an ancient battle,
fire and water made the earth rattle.
The wind raged surrounding the two,
making the nightmares of all come true.

The fire dragon glowed with embers,
it was so bright that you would remember.
The water monster blew off a coal.
It flew through the air and landed in the shoal.

The small rain drop from the water monster flew,
it shined and simmered with a sapphire hue.
The fire dragon blew its hot breath,
which dried it out so it wasn't wet.

The coal from the dragon and the drop from the monster,
turned to two stones that were even harder.
They laid to rest on the shoal and the shore,
hoping, just hoping that there was more.

Finally the two ancient pokemon left,
they fell to their homes for an eternal rest.
And as for the orbs they still hope and pray,
For the time when someone finds them, since that fateful day.

How did ya like it?

Nice... cool... ^^; Perfectly describes the history of the 2.


Dream's Wish

The sun has set as you can see
I just can't wait, just you and me
I'll do whatever to make you smile
Just doing that makes my life worth while

Now we're right here, just face to face
Wish this could last for endless days
The moonlight glows from your delicate skin
You beauty grows deep, all from within

Right now let's only kiss and kiss
Caress our souls with both our bliss
Fate's own children unite as one
Loving all night until it's done

The sun is up, the night is away
Wishing forever included the day
Now you are gone and we are apart
But you'll always be here, engraved in my heart


Ok, it MIGHT sound a bit naughty, but it isn't ok? =P

New one:

Backstabbed

Joy, bliss, is what I'm feeling

love, passion, its hard for concealing

you, me, always together

me, you, lovin' each other

day, night, have fun all the time

left, right, your topics and mine

weeks, months, our relation has lasted

deceit, jealousy, wouldn't be caught dead



e-mail, call, you don't even reply

days, weeks, I just wish that I'd die

family, friends, don't know where you are

significance, opposites, searched from near to far

confused, worried, I saw you with a guy,

followed, sneaked, to see who and why

deceit, jealousy, is now what I'm feeling

away, alone, won't bother to ring

before, the past, I felt joy and bliss

after, now, I felt shattered with... this

Well ty. ^^

Anyway, another one:

Devoted Burden

One's love for a girl is just too deep

thinking of her every second, even while asleep

Her presence is soothing, as one would just tell

just a moment without her, is just like hell.


She's an angel, a goddess, she's just so divine,

her beauty, her elegance, it suits her just fine

No matter what obstacle comes along the way,

one's pride and faithfulness will push them away.


This love for that girl, is still a deep mystery,

one's wish that that girl, is really her destiny

Her smile and her laugh is what one considers cures,

knowing these thoughts, hides the pain he endures.


But this secret of one, is just too forbidden

for knowing this fact, is too big for a burden

All one's focus, is lost in this dark mist

the fact that that angel, that goddess, doesn't even exist.

This is rather short... But it means everything to me ;p

You kept me blind with one word:
Friend
I liked you so bad it hurt
But my friends opened my eyes
They unmasked all of your lies...
Now it's over, it passed
The good thing about friends is...

The memory that forever lasts.

meh, just something ive been working on

Icarian Dreams

swoon to the divine beat
waxy wings can hold you now
above the indignities
flighty feet unbound

eyes alight
her presence flashes within them
rustic gateways give way
to flights of fancy

a proud indignation
glory days
waft away

prosperity, wealth all but an illusion
fading as spirits do
no reconcilition
no requiem sung for the beloved

now boast of pridefulness
sins of the hypocrisy
are of no condemnation
as you may fly to the sun
and nary a wing will you burn

rest
rest has come at last
and of what once was dreamt now dreams

Okay, i never have writed a poem before, this one just 'slipped' in to my mind... suddenly, so i REALLY need comment, thx :)

An existence to read…

If your existence would be a book,
Your eyes would be the pages
And your soul the eager letters
The cover your beauty and shine
Then the description would be your thoughts
And if the life that you live would be
Somebody that reads you
Then just imagine if nobody opens your mind
And if nobody ever took care
Then we would just be nothing more
Be nothing more then a book…

"If your existence would be a book,"

-hmm, try not to be so direct, take this part out and change the second line to something like this:
Your eyes, the pages...

see what im thinking is be less direct in your metaphor, make the reader think about what he/she is reading and leave it for intepretation

I did some editing on my last poem , tell me which you think is better..

Oh, to soar unbound
beyond the problems that plague the earth
on waxen wings...
to reach the heavens; to touch the sun;
survive to soar again

eyes alight,
for gaea burns strong within them;
the glare, the rusts
that held me fast, give way
to flights of fancy....

a proud indignation,
glory days,
waft away.

prosperity, wealth all but an illusion,
fading as spirits do;
no reconciliation, no requiem sung for the beloved.

Now boast of pridefulness;
sins of the hypocrisy do not condemn.
rest.
rest has come at last;
and what was once dreamt, now dreams.

Finglonger- Thank you for your help, i like your poems very much and that is why i followed your advice, here is my 'new' version, but i dont have a tittle yet...

You would be nothing more

Your eyes are the pages
That holds letters of the soul
As your beauty shines, the cover appears
And thoughts equalise description
Living once they open deep secrets
Revealing all that is hidden inside
Then if it happens, they never do
Your fall will conquer, just wait and see
How the dust as abominable rust
Takes over love and mind
Then the time breaks and points out that,
You would be nothing more
Nothing more as a dusty old book…

PS: Pleas give me your comment, thank you !

Sorry for the bump, but:



The Chalk Figure.


Tires squeal in the night
The wind tells of a deadly plight.
The victim’s feet pound the ground
He jumps and gasps at every sound.

The car stops.

The unfortunate man he hides behind,
An abandoned pickup rusted with time.
The gravel crunching step by step
The culprit with his killer pet.
The truck doors open.
He tries to run
But his life ends at the hands of a gun.

Why?

It is a terrifying tale of crime,
That is expressed inside this rhyme
It’s a disturbing thing to come to mind,
And the worse part is its real.

Authors note: This is a poem describing the ghastly deed that is murder. It is also a warning. These things happen every minute.
Its a scary thought.
