Poetry

[Junior]

Untitled


A strategic system that strain the
brain, bold barricades boldly
hold my heart hostage
I victim is vengeance my vendetta to vain
thoughts trained taught to
face the facts and to freeze my feeling
puzzling pieces to put into position of a perfect portrait
of peace or at least a acknowledgment ahead
that destiny discovers our demise
live life lonely, lack of laughing
homes halfway built, broken, burnt
down. . . defenseless ,denial, depressing
a dark dense, downpour on
Stony steps stumbling and slipping into

Subconscious . . . supernatural it seems,
I confined In my conscious cause coldness
Cover and embrace the entity in everyone eyes.
The sun will shine star’s will still be glistening
Gathering of nothing necessary, vocal cords vanish in vain
And my pen will always be flowing with pain
Why we water our words down diluting its potential state.

I feel like you are a real poet. Your work reminds me of the old poems we did in school that we had to analyze and really understand them. *re-reads it* I think I'll save it to my computer...

On the topic of poetry, I don't write it, but I *love* reading it.(I also memorize all my favourite poems). I don't have any favourite poets but favourite poems.

A few would be 'Because I could not stop for death' by Emily Dickinson , 'Life is fine' by Langston Hughes, 'Follower' by Seamus Heaney and 'It is better to be together'(I don't know the poet). And of course, my all time favourite, The Donkey by G.K.Chesterton.

EDIT, I forgot Outwitted! by Edwin Markham.

He drew a circle that shut me out —
Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout.
But Love and I had the wit to win:
We drew a circle that took him in!

Thanks for the support Junior I use to write along time ago constently, I just been to busy to write anything new, it been like two weeks

I love the poem by Edwin Markham that you posted its very unique and distinguish

I use to check out this website www.hiphoppoetry.com and read some poems people posts, if you have the time you should check it out it's interesting.

btw I like your new avatar

[Junior]

I'll check it out, thanks! =)

Do you want to perhaps publish a book of poetry in the future? I could see children in the future doing your poems for English. XD

[Paper]

I thought about publishing a book, but now that you mention it that's not a bad idea. Majority of my poetry is either self-relfection on how I feel at that point in time or advocating. thank you so much for the support your really sweet.

[Junior]

Nah, it's cool. I just love poetry. ^^;

I checked out that site, and I went straight to the dark poems section of the competition and I'm really impressed.
I'll make an effort to read through all the sections.

Do you have any favourites poems or poets, Paper?

[Paper]

The rose that grew from concrete by Tupac Shakur and I'm a fan of Maya Angelou poetry as well as Edgar Allan Poe I basicly have a whole list lol.

pleasure turns to the pain
lessons learned from the strain
questions burned in my brain..
about whether love is humane
in its touch.
these thoughts are like salmon swimming upstream
in the tears of your deceit.
fighting the current hurt that kills more than is created by the chaos
of our intertwined emotions.
chaotic because the anchor of Erros' arrow has been plucked
from the vessel of my undying infatuation
separation not as simple as the distance between us
my mind no longer possessed by demons
that have been the overseers of my enslavement to your lies
the seeds of these lies rooted so deeply
they have cracked the foundation of what we once shared
allowing the faith in us i had sealed inside
to gush out like a river
ripping the image of our future together from my thoughts
as violently and as brutally as if it were a child
being taken from its mothers arms
im left surrounded in darkness
but i refuse to be swallowed by it
my lonliness like the night air
invisible to the eye
obvious to the touch
it is cold uncomfortableness
yet if i could do it all over again
id do it in the same skin im in
to lay down and let love die
just stay down and let love lie?
no, no..not i
id stay around and let love fly
even though i have seen its darkest form
deceit
nothing else could taste this warm
or feel this sweet...

Reagrding Edgar Allan Poe...did he write about necrophillia? I've heard people say that, but I'm not sure.

[Paper]

I'm not really sure, the poems that I read from him didn't really contain any particular lines that had to do with necrophillia but at the same time I wouldn't be suprise if it did

This is a really cool site, thanks for posting it. There's so many subforums, so I'm still weeding my way through, but I really like it.

im glad you find the site as interesting as it did for me Xan, after you weed out the forum you will find a thread you like. I personally enjoy the haiku's

All I have to say is, G to the A to the Y. Guys shouldn't be even talking about this stuff unless it resulted in a romp in the sack with a fine young piece from a university on a long weekend trip.

Enough said.

[Animeniax]

Normally I'd agree with you but the way you put it makes me have to disagree. Plus it tells me you've never been to a university or had any romps or long weekend trips.

Poetry's arguably the most beautiful forms of literature. Song lyrics are a form of poetry. It's this sort of attitude why in-depth song lyrics are now few and far between. No one bothers to learn it, and no one appreciates it.

I feel like analyzing his poems nows.

This is...a joke right? Do women still fall for poetry? I mean, I love reading it, but if I guy said "Here, I wrote you poem", it's BYE BYE. Seriously. Come on.

I agree here. But you know, when you hear songs today, they really hardly have any [serious] in-depth meaning. They either focus on the music and beat only OR the lyrics only.
And people seem to go for the music. Nobody wants to think when they're dancing. =)

I have heard some great songs with catchy beats but the lyrics...eh.

Gotta Make Time
======================
Running a mile ahead
Can't seem to stop
There's something I must do
Something that has to be done
Run, run, and run some more

I got there but it was late
Everything's been finished
I weeped in despair
My wife comforted me
Since her birthday was over
======================
