A poetry corner, eh? Staring this Sunday?

Nah, I don't like striving to be a poet
Even when rhymes slip by when I don't know it.
Meter and verse were never my skills,
Neither counting and pacingthe syllables.

Alternatively, sometimes inspiration strikes,
I start rhyming on the fly, and --
-- Yikes!

:lol:

Okay, that's enough bad poetry for one day.

I have a poem. ^_^ This is one of those autobiographical poems in which an unfinished poem is given to you and you have to fill in the blanks. It was kinda of hard to do for me, 'coz you can't have your way. You have to go with the poem structure given. Okay, well, here it is. Enjoy!

My Heart is a Wandering Soul

I am leading a challenging life.
My life is as uncertain as the fight between life and death.
I had a pleasant childhood.
My childhood was as beautiful as the smile of death.
I had a simple thought: The future awaits me, and so, I put the past behind me.
I read ominous signs and did not understand.
I thought I was granted happiness forever.

And now at 15,
I have seen the darker side of the world.
I have heard the howls of the pained and agonizing.
I know now that happiness never lasts.
I dont know if I have a chance at a better place like in the past.
I hate the loneliness I feel.
I love the serenity that surrounds me.
Ive lost everything.
I am looking for the Savior who shall save me.
I wish for Him to come and take me.
My heart is a wandering soul.

Gray, that prose thing about the dog... I nearly cried!! Sad

I had tears in my eyes when I read it... also, jhonenfreak, I really liked your poems... I think the subject matter was much different than anything I've read before... mind, I don't read a lot of poetry... ^_^ Also, good job to everyone else...

I have a poem, but... I thought it was on my computer, but I guess not... hmm... I guess I'll have to find my copy of it... somewhere... hmm... here, I'll post this in the meantime... a parody my brother and I wrote of a song...

Yeah

I remember when I first met you
I thought, boy, she's really nice
And she can cook some rice
Until you moved in with me
All I see is red
Sometimes I wish you were dead

CHORUS
Do I hate ya
Do I despise ya
Do I wish you would disappear
Do you know you're driving me insane
Do I have to hold you
'Til you can't breathe
And throw you out my window
Do I have to cause you physical pain
YEAH

I really didn't want to hurt you
But you've given me no choice
I can't stand your voice
Would you please stop screaming at me
Or else you'll regret it
You're still screaming, now you'll get it!

CHORUS

*bow* my own Wierd Al-type rendition... I'll go look for an actual poem...

Overseen by a motley madame.

And decided they'd move it to Spam.[/i]

1st: frozen hearts
my heart is frozen
frozen in time

because im waiting
waiting for you to show me the way

i touch you your cold
because i know that thats not right
your lonley
your waiting for me to say..
ilove you

2nd: hits me

i can hear you
but i cant see you
are you here?
to drive away my fear?
and take me away..far far away were no-one can find us

cuz when i touch you i hear you breath
and when you feel me it like a dream
and i just dont want to to go
because my spirts lie with you..

my body lies still
still with you in my heart and in my mind but..
you are gone for too long

then i get the news
news that you are gone
and your not coming back
it hits me....

My sad little poem

kenshinswife · Very bored Joined: 04 Aug 2004 Posts: 144

ok...I have another poem...everybody elses was so awesome!! Have a cookie!

poetry.com wants to put me in a dumb book for the best poems and poets of 2004....I was in another from them also...so they wanted me to send them another poem....so here it is...its really depressing you could say and not my best.....lol

"Revenge"

The young girl stood in the rain
Tears mixed with glossy water drop fell down her bloody cheek
Her dress was torn and ripped with pain.
The doll she held was her only sanity,
All she wanted, was a hug of love, from anyone.
People walk right through her faded body.
She squeezed the doll close, screaming to die.

Her eyes were a sparkling ocean blue,
but now they were pure white.
Her tears stopped flowing, her bruises disapeareded,
a faceless doll dropped.
She strated to breathe faster,
Her body lifted and floated in the air.
The pure white eyes turned an evil, enchanted red.
A smile appeared as she glided through the air.
All the good in her fragile heart disinagrated, replacing with revenge.
With a laugh she created war, terror, and sadness on the world.
If only someone loved her, she wouldn't have died to become the angel of death.

ok...how was that???
Thry to imagine this pic as the girl but younger...lol
