Poetry or Writing

[Strider Negro]

and here's another one:
Nothing to write about
There is nothing to write about
There is nothing to implore
There is no sickness or bout
All life is just a bore
My friends become my enemies
My enemies become my friends
What must I do now?
Do I continue with the trend?
One becomes anti social
The other becomes a bitch
Why is life full of turmoil
When we just began to exist?
I was dumped and left to rot
I slowly got back up again
Now life is going good
Except me and my ex
Can never be friends
I meet many girls
Yet none seem to catch my fancy
When I get interested
I begin to wonder what to do
I expect things to be like they were
When in reality it is always changing
Why is it that I can’t seem to find it?
To find that little spark?
Was it robbed from me?
What do I have to do to get it back?
To try and take hold of my romances
Fuck this
Fuck this and fuck you all
I’m tired of trying to be nice
I’m tired of playing it cool
I’m tired of saying everything is ok
When it is falling to pieces
I’m tired of asking questions
I’m tired of caring so much
Maybe it’s time to realize
That some people aren’t worth saving
That things have no answers
But fuck it
Like I said before
My life was once busy
Now it’s just a bore

[Layla's Keeper]

Besides being a fairly well known fanfic author in the Tenchi Muyo community, I'm a sci-fi/fantasy/romance novelist (nothing published just yet) who dabbles in poetry.

I will admit, I mostly write classical romantic themed poetry. I'm not particular much good at anything beyond that narrow slip of emotion. Here's an example I wrote during a trip to visit an ex-girlfriend of mine.

Brilliance of the stars
Shine for her tonight.
Please light up the darkened sky
'til we can share the midday light.

Aura of the moon
that casts an ivory glow
illuminate a gilded path
straight to the love I know.

Now chariot spin your mighty wheels.
Life hurl me hence to love.
'Tis time I flew, 'tis time we nest -
A falcon and a dove.

sorry its so long. i wrote this for kara for v-day this year. tell me what you think
AN EPIC LOVE STORY

By Ben Gonzalez
I met you so
So many months ago
You were standing there
With your beautiful hair
Around your face
Looking back at me
I knew what to say
It came so easily
I fell in love
That day of the movie.
Somehow I knew it was wrong
Being with you
Betraying your friend
Who I knew too.
Yet somehow I couldn’t
Pull myself away
The feelings where strong
And so I stayed
You told me things
Things that led me to say
I felt the same way
That led me to betray
Your best friend
I hoped it would be ok
And then somehow
We got together
I know I wasn’t perfect
I changed like the weather
And then October came
And I made a mistake
A mistake so wrong
It made your heart break
Somehow you said
I could come back to you
I was so glad
I hardly knew how to thank you
I tried to kiss you
One evening after work
It didn’t go so well
But somehow
We made it work
our relationship grew
And I knew I loved you
Days went by
And turned into weeks
Weeks turned to months
Months turned to a year
I was so happy
We finally made it
Being so young
Yet getting so far
Then one night
I made a big mistake
A mistake I thought
I would never make
I kissed another girl
That’s when you told me
it was my worst mistake
Somehow I felt
It couldn’t be over
Yet you said it was
And I wouldn’t be your lover
Yet I persisted
Your feelings grew stronger
Then one romantic night
We came back together
I knew I would try
Try never to hurt you
Things have come along
Our relationship has grew
I knew I was in love
Love I could not deny
I felt someday
You would be my wife
You called me up
just to tell me you love me
Id do the same
At six in the morning
Things were going great
Until recently
I started getting moody
And you told me
That you weren’t
Madly in love
It broke my heart
Like an iron fist glove
Through my gut
But you still love me
Yes it’s true
I still am head over hills
Just for you
Yet I try to do my best
To show you I am
I grow strong in the church
I fell like im almost a man
Somedays I fell like
The whistle is blowing
That your saying its over
And im to annoying
Some how I never knew
Asking you questions
On how your life is
To show you im interested
Was a reason to get upset
For such a lil things id done
I thank you for
The things you’ve done
You’ve kept me on the straight and narrow
And its been fun
You taught me how to kiss
The kisses I love
That you give so affectionately
Make me feel
Like im somebody special
Because sweetie you have
Always been that somebody special
And no matter what happens I still
Love you

[darkness]

holy moly.

this is still here???

[97civiclx]

heres another one not quite as long

the end of the day

so many nights
spent thinking of you
talking you to sleep
as i often do

smiling inside
as i hear you breath
ever so soft you speak to me
things on your mind
about how i should be

wandering what you are thinking
what dreams fly though your head
off into the night
like so many words left unsaid

so lay back down
fall gently into bed
speak softly to me
all thats drifting in your head
one more i love and ill be gone
so say goodnight for the end of the day has come

the day is over
you call me up
just to see whats new
soon you will be asleep
and your day will be through

zoning in and out of the night
from your dreamland far away
i try to keep you here just for me
as i search fo what to say

longing for your voice
as you fall of the line
this time i will just say goodbye
and let you rest in your mind

so lay back down
fall back into bed
speak everso soft
all thats in your head
one more i love you
for ill be gone
because this time the end of the day
nothing went wrong

But has anyone here or does anyone write poetry or any sort of creative writing. I have a small collection of poems I have written. I usually don't admit it, under a handful of people have seen them at all.

I'm not sure why I want to post them but I'm in a sharing mood. I'm just a bit worried that they'll be stolen and used somewhere else.

Anyway maybe a mod can make this sticky and we can all share our stuff (or whoever wants to).

And to all the immature people who think this is wussy or what ever
BITE ME !!

I'll post my first one in a sec.

I won`t steal I promise anywho I talked "NOT" to Gerhard Schroder Sat and I`m the one who designed the airconditioning systum for the world trade center

I am very impressed with all these, and i finally decided to post in here. i do some poetry every once in a while too. I thought id post my two best ones. The first i can copy/paste but i have to go find the second, so ill post it later.

I wrote this first one for my then-girlfriend, for Christmas. I read it to her as i gave her her gift. She liked it, maybe you guys will too:

My Sweet

My sweet,
Twas the first day to my engraved memory I would bestow,
Your wonderful company I did enjoy.
That day was the day I fell for you,
I knew you were my one and only true love.
When I knew you were to be mine,
Sought your faith and trust did I.

My true,
For which my love grows,
More and more with every rise of the sun,
And set.
To the moon anon can be thine eyes compared,
And to the sun, and its brilliant shine, can be thy smile.
Your temple, ‘tis but a brilliant diamond in my eye,
Undisputed beauty in its purest form.
Ne’er is a time in which my heart does not beat,
Full of the rich devotion to thee,
And that of thee to me.

My angel,
You mean the same to me as the Shepherd to His sheep.
To each end of this world I would go,
If you desired so.
For your bliss I do strive,
For me, this bliss thou hast long since created.
When I spend time with you now,
It is Heaven on Earth.

My love,
Thou hast opened a door to an incredible plain,
On which I have but one regard,
Sustain that, which makes us harmonious,
And my passion for you will be sustained.
I will not be absent,
For I am yours.
Now, I have but one statement left to say,
Please, let it run deep, and let it ring true,
Let it be,
I love you



What really bums me out now is the memory that 5 days after i read this to her, i dumped her...

This Lyrics from the band that I am in.The song is called So close
Fell in love at the end of the day, Your Eyes your face, make me stay, Even though in my heart I want to leave.... Looking at the Photos its so hard to see, The way we connect, it is the way to be..

So close, to the high point in my life, So close to the Days I wont live in strife

Big dreams turn to Nightmeres and things I hoped for have not come true, the thing that makes me so happy in life is the fact I got YOU, ohh across the Mountains and through the fields, sepereated by race your parents dont feel,

I though white is to black as black is to white, I guess your parents dont understaned that I cannot put up this fight

So close to the high point in my life, So close to the Days I wont live in Strife..

Why WHy WHy?????...

[IntegraBoy2003]

All of your Poetry in this forum Rock, they are all great!!

Hey guys. My first time posting in this part of AF. I wrote these poems recently. Might post some more later on. Enjoy

"As This Odyssey Begins"

So with this
I shall depart.
But please
No more tears, little Lotus
For I won't be go long.
I'll see you again soon.

The clouds are forming overhead
A storm shall be upon us soon.
But now I must be going.
What's that on your fair cheeks?
Tear drops or rain drops?
No, my darling, please don't cry.

I'll be back by morning
and I will be the sun.
Your sun, little Lotus, your sunshine.
One more kiss and then I'll go
I'll return to you, my darling
Then, we'll walk this path together

"7 Ways To Leave Your Lover"

You could drown her
in your backyard swimming pool

You could shoot him
with his father's .45

You could run her over
in her '62 Datsun roadster

You could electricute him
with the cable to his Playstation

What about choking her
with her favorite studded belt?

Or beating him over the head
with his favorite socket wrench?

Every way to leave your lover.
Every way except saying "Goodbye"

[AndrewR85]

Just thought i'd throw in another for good measure

"Lies"

Lies, lies, lies
You can't spell "life" without "lie"
Or at least that's what I tell myself
Everything is a lie
Everyone is a liar

Who can I trust?
Where I can I turn?
I look to the heavens
In search of an answer.
But the door is closed
It's locked with no way in.

Locked from the outside?
Or am I on the inside?
On the inside and trapping myself
within my own lies.

Someone please help me
Mother? Father?
Brother? Sister?
Please let me in
and shelter me from myself.

[Boss San]

A funny thing occured to me the other day as I was walking my cock.
Normally it would want to cross the street.
I thought that to be a bit funny.
Yet we did it everyday.
But for some reason today.
It did nothing.
I poked at my cock.
It clucked and pecked my knee.
In the end we just went home.
Now my cock can run free in the backyard.
Until I run out of food.
This is the dumbest thing I've done today, by far.
I can't help it.







No time for boiled liquids that just end up burning my tounge
No time for another ciggarette that'll brown up that last bit of lung
No more fun.
No time for putting out on the streets for all to see
No time for painting on the edge of the sky just for me
No more fun.

i'm the same as you darkness, i've written a bunch of poems (most of them pure crap) and only like 4 or 5 people know that i do

heres one that i just wrote (at a quarter till midnight):

i close my eyes
and the slideshow begins
your hair, your smile
i see you in front of me
but reaching out to touch your hand
all i get is the feel of the smooth screen
that brings me back to reality

o, why does reality have to be real?

it brings me back to my place
here in front of the computer
with you missing from my side

absent of your beauty
i hold onto the times we've shared
those times of joy
so distant from the now and here

this place is cold and destitute without you
i feel your presence but am still silent with regret
for if we were to never meet again
my lacking would eat me away
it would tear me up from the inside

o, God be merciful!
to give me another chance
to spin myself around
and take you in my arms
to finally say
i love you

[lamborghinirocks]

and heres another i just wrote directed to a friend a good friend (its combining some advice i've given to her lately):

this is supposed to be the best time of our lives
so lighten up and stop worrying about relationships
that when you look at the big scheme of things
is so puny and insignificant
that it makes you laugh

don't take life too seriously
but don't take it too lightly
that you fail to see the future
smile when you're happy
cry when you're sad
its nice to see you smile
but don't make it a mask too hide behind
cause thats what friends are for
to make that smile genuine
to smooth out the wrinkles in your life
and if you find a "friend"
that doesn't try to flatten those wrinkles
you should lose the problems they create by losing them

"this above all: to thine own self be true"
its not just a quote to remember for the english test
its a rule to live your life by
just as you shouldn't were a mask of smiling
don't wear a mask of a personality
not true to your heart
be yourself and everything will work out
friends will find you

my hope is that this helps you
in any time of need or contemplation
and may God lead you and bless you,
my friend
