Title: Poems
Post by: Sally on January 20, 2008, 11:48:02 pm
Here you can post your own poems or your favret ones.


i like this one :P
Falsely Accused

I've been accused of being a player
One of those innocent woman slayers
Mistaken by my fellow peers
I'm just facing social fears

Although I make it look real easy
The intention is to not be sleazy
Because my true goal is straight from the heart
The honest word is, I'm still learning my part

So what looks like a spiral game
Does not go by the same bloody name
I'm in search of that perfect mate
And avoiding a life with a lonely fate

Someday I will find love and happiness
And then I will be able to confess
No matter how much fun was the time
It was the love that was on my mind

Post by: Nortos on January 21, 2008, 12:14:36 am
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'

Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; - vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore -
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Nameless here for evermore.

And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me - filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating
`'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door -
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; -
This it is, and nothing more,'

Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
`Sir,' said I, `or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you' - here I opened wide the door; -
Darkness there, and nothing more.

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before
But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, `Lenore!'
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, `Lenore!'
Merely this and nothing more.

Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.
`Surely,' said I, `surely that is something at my window lattice;
Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore -
Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; -
'Tis the wind and nothing more!'

Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door -
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door -
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven.
Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore -
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning - little relevancy bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door -
Bird or beast above the sculptured bust above his chamber door,
With such name as `Nevermore.'

But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only,
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -
Till I scarcely more than muttered `Other friends have flown before -
On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'
Then the bird said, `Nevermore.'

Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
`Doubtless,' said I, `what it utters is its only stock and store,
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful disaster
Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore -
Till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore
Of "Never-nevermore."'

But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore -
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore
Meant in croaking `Nevermore.'

This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing
To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core;
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining
On the cushion's velvet lining that the lamp-light gloated o'er,
But whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o'er,
She shall press, ah, nevermore!

Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
`Wretch,' I cried, `thy God hath lent thee - by these angels he has sent thee
Respite - respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil! -
Whether tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,
Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted -
On this home by horror haunted - tell me truly, I implore -
Is there - is there balm in Gilead? - tell me - tell me, I implore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil!
By that Heaven that bends above us - by that God we both adore -
Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn,
It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels named Lenore?'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!' I shrieked upstarting -
`Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!
Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!
Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore!

Post by: Lost_Hope on January 25, 2008, 10:40:54 am
ok as i type this i'm making it up...

in the yes of the deamer
there is a shard of hope

As the beholder bows his head
He gives the world more hope

to stop the evil of the world
he must pray real hard

for the darkness in the world
has power from a far

When the holder finds his way
his destiny will unfold

that he is the one to help us
the savior of untold....

who can guess who this poem is about?

here is another i just came up with

within the distance of space
there is a a small speck

Is it life
or is is death?

no one is for sure
untill it takes it's shape

what on earth could it be?
could it a just a mistake?

As the speck begins to form
we stare with awe and wonder

As the element becomes alive
we all begin to ponder

who knows what this element could be
is it water or rain

noone knows for sure just what it may be
but I believe that it has a purpose just like you and me....

ok, lets see if i can come up with one right now, randomly...


Shadows to dusk
and dusk to light
light ever bright
birghtness to eyes
eyes to pain
the sun shines ever on
bringing warmth
bringing light
and then comes the night
with shadows and the lost
and the ever twisting twilit sky
blackness moves
and the dark slithers before me
the night shines bright up high
a moon devoid of humanity
blue circle ring surrounding
when the night comes
and the shadows take over
i step from my domain
and out into the black
above me I see
the light of the stars
snow under my barefoot feet
blanket, over my undressed body
i stare, up at the stars
standing there
at night
morning
i am gone.


uhh, yeah, i think i changed something or other at one point... i dont think it came out right...

Lol, thats nt neccessarily a bad thing Blizz >_>

This is a poem I made about a slave for English class. It is supposed to reflect the life of Olaodah Equiano...

Spoiler: ShowHide

The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaodah Equiano

The parents off to work
The sister and I alone
The strangers found a way in
They took us from our home

They gagged us they bound us
They placed us in sacks
We boarded a ship
To never come back

Sailing and sailing
When will it end
I hoped, I prayed
I even tried to pretend

Alas, this is real
Nothing fake about it
Soon we will be sold
To buyers of the Black Market

We will work as slaves for the lazy
Until the ends of our time
Never to return home
And yet, we'd never commited a crime

here's one I did in 5 minutes in English lol...I found out it was due and hadn't started it so I was like shit...
every now and than something sounds bad like first verse but that's because English teacher made us keep the same amount of sylables and structure as a poem he showed us.

A stark evening in winter
In an old rusted shack
Wolves rested together
Huddling in a vicous pack

Baby cubs howl their screaming cries
Mothers comfort them with meat
Fathers and adults on the hunt
Scared prey hiding in the sleet

Dew dripping of the frightened prery
Something was amiss
Dark, Evil, Blood Thirsty, Amiss
The prey heard whispers of an evil hiss

A shadow loomed over them
Their cries pierced the night air
As their bodies fell limp
It took them to its lair...

By Me

I thought it was alright done in 5 mins lol

How dare you sir make a mockery of my name, this is an outrage!
You seem to thing that a name is just a name that holds us like a cage?!
Ah but a name is an attachment that holds honor,
even though it is rather minor.
You shouldn't make amusement of ones name,
as if it was some sort of game.
Your choosing was rather prosaic,
that it has become rather archaic.
I am sure you wouldn't like me
If I made fun of your family tree.
So be kind for future use,
and tie ends to your words so their not so loose.
I hope your happy calintz16438
that you made this poetry start to sound like hate.
so I shall head and post no more,
poetry that I had in store.

The Legacyblade


The blazing blade of shining blue
Whose power stands unmatched
Summoned only with Hero's key
Shall change the world eternally

Shadow world shall attach
As blade of Legacy shines forth
Shall pierce the heart of Shadow's Call
As realm of gods begins to fall

Through soul of Hero it shall course
Although the shadows shall recede
When lightened hearts cease to dwell
In worlds where the seas still swell

When shadows again shall scourge the land
In days without a Hero's hand
Legacy, to us return


That's one I did for school. I was supposed to come up with a new poetic form, and I did. I call it...Celenathian Shorthand...

Blistering skies

Blurred away my sight,

I realize it's water,
But it doesn't matter.
A heavy breath

Nice job blizz xD Rhyme scheme is simple but it's comes off nice

My favorite poem:::
Thanatopsis by William Cullen Bryant: ShowHide
O him who in the love of Nature holds
Communion with her visible forms, she speaks
A various language; for his gayer hours
She has a voice of gladness, and a smile
And eloquence of beauty, and she glides
Into his darker musings, with a mild
And healing sympathy, that steals away
Their sharpness, ere he is aware. When thoughts
Of the last bitter hour come like a blight
Over thy spirit, and sad images
Of the stern agony, and shroud, and pall,
And breathless darkness, and the narrow house,
Make thee to shudder and grow sick at heart;--
Go forth, under the open sky, and list
To Nature's teachings, while from all around--
Earth and her waters, and the depths of air--
Comes a still voice--Yet a few days, and thee
The all-beholding sun shall see no more
In all his course; nor yet in the cold ground,
Where thy pale form was laid with many tears,
Nor in the embrace of ocean, shall exist
Thy image. Earth, that nourish'd thee, shall claim
Thy growth, to be resolved to earth again,
And, lost each human trace, surrendering up
Thine individual being, shalt thou go
To mix for ever with the elements,
To be a brother to the insensible rock,
And to the sluggish clod, which the rude swain
Turns with his share, and treads upon. The oak
Shall send his roots abroad, and pierce thy mould.
 
Yet not to thine eternal resting-place
Shalt thou retire alone, nor couldst thou wish
Couch more magnificent. Thou shalt lie down
With patriarchs of the infant world--with kings,
The powerful of the earth--the wise, the good,
Fair forms, and hoary seers of ages past,
All in one mighty sepulchre. The hills
Rock-ribb'd and ancient as the sun,--the vales
Stretching in pensive quietness between;
The venerable woods; rivers that move
In majesty, and the complaining brooks
That make the meadows green; and, pour'd round all,
Old Ocean's grey and melancholy waste,--
Are but the solemn decorations all
Of the great tomb of man. The golden sun,
The planets, all the infinite host of heaven,
Are shining on the sad abodes of death,
Through the still lapse of ages. All that tread
The globe are but a handful to the tribes
That slumber in its bosom.--Take the wings
Of morning, pierce the Barcan wilderness,
Or lose thyself in the continuous woods
Where rolls the Oregon and hears no sound
Save his own dashings--yet the dead are there:
And millions in those solitudes, since first
The flight of years began, have laid them down
In their last sleep--the dead reign there alone.
So shalt thou rest: and what if thou withdraw
In silence from the living, and no friend
Take note of thy departure? All that breathe
Will share thy destiny. The gay will laugh
When thou art gone, the solemn brood of care
Plod on, and each one as before will chase
His favourite phantom; yet all these shall leave
Their mirth and their employments, and shall come
And make their bed with thee. As the long train
Of ages glides away, the sons of men,
The youth in life's green spring, and he who goes
In the full strength of years, matron and maid,
The speechless babe, and the gray-headed man--
Shall one by one be gathered to thy side
By those who in their turn shall follow them.
 
So live, that when thy summons comes to join
The innumerable caravan which moves
To that mysterious realm where each shall take
His chamber in the silent halls of death,
Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night,
Scourged by his dungeon; but, sustain'd and soothed
By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave,
Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
About him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.
