Poetry, Anyone?

Whoa, that really was a lot to read... I really like them, they're so emotional.
Love the ones about your sister, little sisters are the best thing in the world. I'm sure she will appreciate them once she's old enough to understand.
Also love the 6th (if I counted correctly, the "tomorrow" one) It's beautiful. You really got a way with words. Thanks for sharing.
 
Great work everyone :)
This is actually my first real attempt at poetry, so forgive me if its bad.

I am mysterious.
A complex maze of hidden disposition
You can't expect me to trust everyone.
It takes time
I'm tired of making that mistake.
It leads only to hurt
I am a concealed thinker
Lost in the sea of faces
I am a silent seeker
You must look hard to find me.
Am I worth finding?
 
Remember me,
The one you loved,
The one you kissed,
The one you touched,
The one who you held in your heart,
The one who set your soul alight,
The one who brought you so much joy,
The one who gave you hope,
The one who gave you life again,
The one who showed you the world anew,
The one you long for again,
The one you cry for every night,
The one you loved.
Remember.
Me.
 
All your poems are so beautiful. :)

Me.
One small person on this big planet.
You'll think.
You'll think that I'm just stupid,
that I'm just a nerd.
But if you look closer,
it's me.
I'm not stupid.
I'm not just a nerd.
I'm am myself.
Unlike you.
 
people fight in wars
killing, dying
hurting others for what they want.
power, money, freedom
all comes
at a price
to those who fight.
swords slicing
knives cutting
bombs blasting
guns shooting.
my words are my bombs.
my pen is my gun.
i'll fight with it.
 
I'm drowning in a wave that's you
Washing over my safe shores
Far away from the city
With it's masses of strangers
Out to hunt for innocent hearts

I've kept myself at distance
Going out but returning home
Alone into my solitude
Until you followed me out
Caught up, rushed over and took me along
 
I really like your poem, Mia!

So I don't really write poetry anymore but I felt the urge this (very early) morning so here goes nothing.

My, how the tables have turned
Isn't it odd how you're alone now?
You started off with a girlfriend and a best friend
Now you're down to nothing
Funny how one decision can ruin it all

Ah, my dear, you've a lot to learn
Choices made be hard, but make sure you make the right one
For it may come back to haunt you
As I see it's doing now

Oh don't mind me
I'm only speaking my mind
Don't fret over my words,
Remember? I'm the one you left behind
Go on, walk on by
For I'll still be here even when you're gone,
Observing you're mistakes
And learning from mine
 
A song by Evanscence:


Broken (Amy Lee feat. Seether)

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore


I love this lyrics. :D
 
^Nice lyrics but the thread is more for the poems and esp the poems that posters have wrote (or the poetry discussion in general)
 
Raindrops drumming
Loud and forceful
Against the silence in my heart
Washing, cleansing
Tear stained cheeks
Flooding through my thoughts
I stand and shiver
In the wind
And wait for night to fall
In the gray clouds
Feet on grass
I'm standing proud and tall

To feel the force of nature
To soak the weather in
Gives me strength
Gives me belief
That you will never win
 
Nobody got any poetry to share? Well, I do. For N.

Today I want to share my pain
I want to make you see
The damaged frightened little girl
Is all that's left of me

Today I want to rise above
And stand up to my past
The broken dreams and memories
That can no longer last

Today I want your victory
To crumble at your feet
Show you what's been haunting me
And make you watch me bleed

Today I'm strong and not ashamed
Of what the dark has done
Today I'm feeling brave enough
To say I don't belong
 
MiaCharlize :
OMG...i really luv your poem!!
I wrote one a long time ago.....
-untitled-

I can't tell you my feelings.
I can't tell you my pain.
Why don't you look at me?
Please, you have to explain!

Give me a reason,
Just give me a why.
Tell me, did something happen?
I don't wanna say goodbye!
