Hey, I haven't written much poetry in a while, but I have a few written.
My first one, like many of my poems, is untitled.
I wrote this the first time I fell in love, with a girl who didnt love me, about a year ago.
I want to jump for joy, to shout her name,
to express my feelings without shame,
But through my fear, within my doubt,
I fail to leap, I do not shout.
Because I know, or more, I fear,
that should her feelings be made clear,
my worst predictions will come true,
the pain might be less if I only knew.
But my doubt grows as time moves by,
and deep inside, I weep, I cry.
And though we may never be together, I wll always care for my beautiful girl.
No.........not mine,
Always beautiful,
.....never mine.
Ill post more when I have time.

Please don't be sad, shed no more tears,
don't let your happiness be destroyed by your fears.
Don doubt your heart, it will show you what's right,
it will bring a new dawn from the darkest night.
Don't blame yourself for the way that you feel,
don't look with dread to what you see as the end.
To help reassure you, I'll make you this deal,
I will always be here when you need a friend.

Ok, here's one I wrote about a year ago when I accidentally started a large debate on the subject. About 30 or 40 people held one opinion, and only a friend of mine and I held the other.
That what inspired this.
The Truth.
I know it is true, beyond other's belief,
The joy that it brings is worth all the grief.
Others may mock, they may laugh and scorn
but through my belief I will not be forlorn.
And though it may one day cause my heart to break,
I will stay in defence for as long as I can take.
I''ll stand tall and proud for as long as I can,
because Wolverine will never beat Spider-man.
I'm a nerd, I admit it.
Needless to say, the feeelings in the poem were exaggerated for effect.
good times though......

Thanks Scythe for the awesome sig
they are all soooo good! The first 2 made me wanna cry , i love them all! The 3 was funny , and come on it doesn't matter if ur a nerd or not, we all have our nerdy moments , i seem to have many nerdy moments.
Ok, this one is very special to me, I wasnt going to post it at first.
Its a poem I wrote for a girl in my class who died about 14 months ago.
For the sake of respect and privacy, Im going to change the name in the poem.
A smile on her face,
Though she smiles no more,
We wish and we long
For the way it was before.
Her energy, her joy
When she talked and she laughed.
All the smiles on her face
Now on photographs.
She taught us a lesson,
I hope we never forget,
To live life to the fullest,
To live without regret.
Though we cry and we mourn,
And the pain may not end,
We love her, we miss her,
Angela Dolan, our friend.
Rest in peace, Angela.

that last one was incredible....this girl, Emily, I won't say her last name, died about at most 5 months ago, and I couldn't believe someone with so much life like her was just.........gone. I know what you're feeling, you're not alone.
My faults and flaws now revealed,
Stinging like wounds not yet healed.
And not just the flaws displayed on the outside,
faults so deep, I wish I could just die.
Like a mirror that I cannot see,
In all I do, you blindly torment me.
Lonelier than when I'm on my own,
I'm most unhappy, when talking to you, on the phone.
