    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!

    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

    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.

    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?

    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...

    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.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    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.

    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.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    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.

    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.

    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 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
    ======================
    I am training in the shadows.
    Currently playing: All of your games, probably.
