And I return from my art duties with my eighteenth, "Silent Solace"

"so I am by myself, with no one around. I have complete silence with no sound. and so my break from the noisy world soon begins, and it is a long time before it ends. nothing but the Hot water surrounds and engulfs me, and I lay back peacefully, the stress now leaves me after I held it all day, and the problems of the outside world wash away. if feels as if I'm getting lighter, and my day is progressively becoming brighter, my eyes closed and I'm laid back, this is the way I relax. what is few minutes to others feels longer to me, its this calm moment that is so conforting. enlightment or relaxation is what others call it, I like to refer it as my Silent Solace."
 
Not exactly sure how this thread runs?, so im just going to post a poem a wrote a little while ago, (rather lengthy), i have a few... may post them up later.

And it's in the perspective of a girl, and no i am not a girl. :D

Till Death Do We Part

Music screaming and blaring, lost from an unknown source,
Lost in its sound waves of a chemical attraction, bringing one almighty force,
Conversations are starting to peak, but no voices can be heard,
Pitch raising voice boxes; begin to sound like their blurred,

I began thinking to myself, that maybe this is an unsafe place,
The Smokey and foggy scene, brings only tears strolling down my face,
Though they were unforced, it still put a bad feeling in my chest,
I needed some kind of protection, to bring my pain to rest,

When I thought I would leave this hole, a hand came upon mine own,
I thought to myself it’s a god send, and at the moment it seemed so proan,
He gently whispered in my ear, “You don’t seem to well, are you o.k.?”
I replied with a croaky voice, “No I’m not o.k., I want to be in a place where it’s safe”,

He took my hand with his gentle touch, and led me to his car,
He seemed so down to earth so willing to help, so I went with him thus far,
Every trip I did such make, he was there to catch my fall,
Lonely as I seemed 10 minutes ago, was now a messed up call.

He opened the door of his car, and guided me to my seat,
Took a blanket from the boot, and covered my frozen little feet,
He took off his coat, and placed it upon my shoulders abroad,
And during his ever so caring moment, my silly mother called,

He took my phone from my hand and put it to his ear,
And explained to my mother what had happened, and told her he was here,
Little did my innocent mother know that, that was the last she would hear from me,
So she carried on with life as usual, and went to her dreamland of “free”,

He started the engine of the car, with a simple turn of the key,
And we drove into the darkness, where he would never leave me be.
Bright street lights seemed a common in my shuttered eyes,
But then all went black, and I wondered whether I should say goodbye?,

The car pulled off of the road, and the noisy motor stopped,
He stepped out of the car and shut the door, then he realized I had the door locked,
He had a violent array of emotions, smashing the window putting glass through my face,
And my whole body froze and shivered, and my broken heart did such race,

He climbed in through the window, grabbing hold of my damaged body,
And he took my neck with his hands, and choked me till’ I could no longer worry,
Lucky was I, that I did survive this brutal attack,
But he wasn’t finished yet, he rolled me over and took a stick and broke my frail back,


I cried for a better being, I cried for an unexplainable pain,
I cried for an unleash of power, to kick this bustard away,
He had not satisfaction of me yet, he still had more attacks waiting for me up ahead,
He took a gun from his boot, and put a simple bullet through the back of my head,

I began to rise up above, as my spirit left my mortal body,
Along the trip I prayed for innocent little mother to forget her never ending worries,
I prayed for a more successful life, next time round’,
I prayed for the evil man who did my death, to be controlled in all mighty bounds,
I prayed for a caution to those, who may get in this man’s harm of way,
I prayed for those at that party, who did not make it home the next day,

This man took 13 lives that night, not including mine own,
13 innocent lives of women, which he could of, just simply left alone.
How could a human being, do such things? Yet it happens everyday,
For this young man took many lives, brought much pain, Yet his mind did not phase,

For you my mother, my love for you is so raw,
For you my precious mother, you cared so much. Yet I ignored your every call.
My every tear, my every sin I would bare again, to see your smile,
I miss you so much my mother, for you’re very much worth my every while,
My every ounce of energy, would be dedicated to heal your pain,
My every thought of denial would be doubled, to make sure your caring nature would not reign,

When I was cold, you made me warm,
When I was hungry, you fed me,
When I was sad, you made me laugh,
When I was hurt, you healed my sores,
When I was stressed, you calmed me down,
When I was lost, you found my way,
When I was mean, you ignored my insults,
When I thought life was at its end, you portrayed your ever boundary love,
When I was on the ropes of denial, you gave me ground to walk upon,
When not even God would forgive my sins, you would support my every action,
No words can describe your love; no actions can describe mine for you,
No deed could forgive my actions, and no deed I would have to give,
Your Unconditional love held harness of my life, A simple thank you is all I can give.

So please o’ Please, make hear of my final plea,
I’m sorry mother, I love you mother, you set my soul to free.

for you to be a guy, that's a pretty good perspective:tup:
 
My Nineteenth, "Same Old Shame"


"Just a few bad things that happen to include me, almost always get to me, I go off like a cannon almost instantly, not realizing the Mistake I that don't see. this is a regular occurance, a always horrible regular disturbance, a evitable and unchangeable sequence, and served with full plate of Loneliness. I feel Like a never-ending mistake, I am every decision I make, I am every chance that I take, I'll never sleep and will always remain wide awake. I'm forever disturbed by my terrible past, my eyes see it all going through the empty glass, My mind can sense it killing the green old grass, and my ears can bearly hear it slowly pass. for all eternity I'm stuck this way, there's not much I can really change, so Forever I will play this endless game, being as always the Same Old Shame."
 
Sakiale
Ive got a few. If I can find them.

They're more fun then serious though.
they don't have to be serious, just as long as its a poem. oh and btw, they don't have to rhyme either. so enjoy yourself here:) .
 
My Twentieth "Never Feel"


"So it all appears, that the sound heard in my ears, is false by my conclusion, proving to be nothing more then an illusion. I thought my Kindness would be of some effect, to make some lifes somewhat perfect, but its useless according to their disaproval, so it results in my self-removal. I feel nothing inside at all, almost like a hole in the wall, and there is no one at my side for help that I can call, so I continue on my downward fall. well to them its no big deal, so their feelings of me aren't real, so there is no reason to try to heal, there are so many feelings that I just will Never Feel."
 
here is 1 i made up as a child

lol

"hickory dickory dock,
the mouse coughed up a rock,
caught the flew,
and died by 2,
hickory dickory dock"
 
Here's a poem that I wrote...

There once was a man named "Bin Laden"
Whose odor had long since gone rotten.
He started to smell.
And people could tell.
He hadn't showered since kindergarten.

And here's my second one...

An ancient tree lies,
Blanketed by the dark stormy sky above.
Actually it is a man who is alive and dead,
At the same time.
 
Life is starting and the battle is uphill,
I'm racing so fast I can never sit still.
Tired of fighting I have no defiance,
In my head I scream for silence.
Drive drive drive is all I ever do,
I need money so I can start anew.
Nobody is happy and we are all on edge,
Going to make it - that is my pledge.
I can hardly wait for all to see,
That this life wasn't able to stop my family.
 
Chewing Quarters

Somebody stop this noise inside my head,
The colors keep telling me that I’m already dead,
But then why is my blood pouring out on the bed,
Now my small boat is sinking in an ocean of red,

This bathroom is shrinking and sending me a shiver,
And the wallpaper is fuzzy and flowing like a river,
The Angels are whistling and telling me to come hither,
Waving their glowing arms with a snake like slither,

I bury my face into all eight of my hands,
And think pleasant thoughts of far away lands,
With Unicorns belly dancing on jelly bean sands,
As I stand and cheer, alone in the stands,

Now a voice is echoing inside my odd dream,
Its calling my name or so it would seem,
Bright light though my fingers shines like a beam,
And everything goes from coffee to cream,

I open my eyes and turn to see my friend,
And think to myself "I wish this would end",
Then quickly turn away as his face starts to bend,
Why I enjoy this I'll never comprehend...


This is about an experience I had a while back, I'm sure you can guess what its about. :guilty:
 
Well found my poem book, but Im only gonna post the one that got published, big hit for some reason.

=Shadow

Shadow, shadow
Speeding by
Shadow, shadow
from the sky
Deep dark lonely shadow
of an airplane flying
High in the sky,
Deep dark lonely shadow
soon you will
fade away
At night there are no shadows
cause by that time the whole world's
covered in shadow
and the faint shadows that remain
are as stealthy as can be

My Thirteenth, "The Cursed Burden"

"I am what my family has, I am the bad luck that my family has had, I am a curse day and night, I am a stain on their lives. my life has caused nothing but suffering, My life is one with no healing, My Life end is pending, My Life's pain is constantly impending. I continue my descent to go so low, with little or no remorse from the spirit above that knows, the light of my life has no glow, so he has no care for my fall to the hole below. all the wishes made have no value, nor any reward dispite how I gave to, forever I am dying away from everyone's view, and everyone will be happy when I leave this world soon. they live better without me poisoning them, they will say "finally, we're free from him", my departure will be their happy moment, I as well as they all know it. no longer will I hurt because of the pain within, they will actually be smiling on the day my life will end, they will no longer worry for certain, for they will be freed of me, The Cursed Burden"
 
Here's a sonnet I wrote for my AP English class:

Sonnet Forty-two divided by the square root of cheesecake:

It's I that damnèd muse wishes to spite
All my writing ideas now are gone
Sonnet collapses like an aging flan
my brain is empty as I try to write
my head-there's still nothing up in there
nowhere to be found is the sacred muse
This inspiration thing must be a ruse
Assignment makes me want to pull my hair
now I cease this most annoying trouble
Satiric writing of silly sonnets
I can pop this dark and boring bubble
Or -roast this page neath my car's steel bonnet
mushy stuff just turns my mind to rubble
now- unleash the fearsome pen upon it.
 
I have never checked out this part of the site alot, but when I saw this thread
I just had to come and take a look. I have to say that all of the poems here are
really cool:tup:. Would it be alright if I posted some of the stuff I have done?
 
Here's mine, after a night at a party:


I drank a lot of beer tonight.
I knew that I may get quite drunk;
And those that followed what I did
Thought the same thought I obviously thunk.

Ok here it is, it's not as good as the one's you guy's have posted but here go's.

Hate and Anger is a virus.

Hate and Anger is like a virus. It can spread though the air or by touch.
It does not matter how heathy you are you can get it. But if you have
a strong mind you can keep your self from catching it, most of the time.
If you do catch this virus it can only cause pain and destruction to people
around you. Hate and Anger is a virus, do you have it?

I have a few more too.

Thanks, it's something I thought up one day. It's based on real life because I
have gotten the "Virus" before. Not a fun thing to have. Anyways here's one more.

Sadness is the greatest pain

What is Sadness? Sadness is what you feel when something terrible happens in your life.
Whether a death of a loved one, or by someone getting hurt you care for. It can come
sudden and with no warning, and can last a life time. It can and will cause you pain,
but if your strong you can work though it and come out of the pain stronger than before.
But for those who have had not felt Sadness for a long time it can cause greater pain than
any cut or broken bone. Sadness is the greatest pain anyone can feel, but remember that
even with this great pain that there is always a reson to live. Even if the pain may seem
like too much and you wish for death, in this world there is a reson to live, even if you can
not see it. Sadness is the greatest pain, greater than any in the world.

This is my longest one I have made so far.

Take a minute,
Look around,
See the puppet,
Walking the ground.

Take a breath,
Realise,
Even death,
Is in people's eyes.

Take a stride,
React!
Credit card denied,
Debt is fact.

Take a look,
Experience,
Different to the book,
Forward the defyence.

Take a trend,
Rip it apart,
Search till the end,
Where you find, the key to your heart.

Trend,
End.


Quick ten minute fix up. :)
