Poetical Justice

Thanks 🙂

Unity.

My fingers have gone numb,
They're clamped so tightly,
Entwined in yours, so close it looks like one hand.
My lips are sore,
Red and bruised, and swollen,
From where your fierce kisses have attacked.
My eyes are aching,
Tears sliding down my cheeks,
Tears of passion, pain and perfect emotion.
My voice is quiet,
I can make no sound,
Silence screams more loudly than I ever could.
But it's not a fight,
There's nothing wrong.
It feels so right,
Goes on and on, and on.
Until;
It's over, we've reached the summit, forever together.
Breathing in unison,
Staring.
In stunned appreciation of the magic we create.
Heat,
Power,
Love.

I loved that one Sy! Beautiful!

Thanks hun, we're getting better and better aren't we? My personal favourite out of all of mine is this one;

Vampyr

Darkness alights, suffocating the skies,
Time stands still once more.
I walk alone, sounds sweep over me,
No wind, nothing touches my pale skin.
I try to recall the sun on my face,
Impossible, a far away place,
Where the warmth was once felt.
I shiver, more a reaction to lack of memory,
For I feel not a thing, clinically dead.
Eternity ahead,
I long to breathe again, to inhale the sweet aromas of life.
To taste something other than death.
Acceptance is my next step,
My fate sealed as I roam the Earth.
But I am strength personified,
For I am the undead, nor alive, it's a confusing state.
I know not what runs through my veins,
Nor do I care,
I am neither here nor there,
Always in one place and yet in another.
I walk on.........

And out of yours, I really love this one;

Daddy...
Why’d you have to leave me?
Why couldn’t you stay alive to see
What I have become for you?
You’ve been with me all the way through
But now you’re gone
To the Underworld you have flown...

Daddy...
Why can’t we return the days
When we used to laugh and play?
We’d swirl around the bend
I prayed to God it would never end.
Now I have my restless nights
Without you there to remind me of the light

Daddy...
I wish you were alive now
Maybe I would not be so down
Now all my fears seem so near
Sometimes I can’t even see you clear
You are there in my dreams
But I always seem to return to reality

Daddy...
I know that you’re with me in my heart
And that’s what keeps me on day and night
But I would like to say, Daddy,
That I have met some awfully nice friends
And our loyalty has no ends

So Daddy...
I miss you still
And you always have a special spot to fill
In my heart and in my mind
But now I think I can move on fine
But I will always remember the night
When you reminded me of the light....

I don't recall seeing that, or any of the others written after 'Vampyr' on page 5. They're wonderful!! I'm really pleased with this thread, kind of amazed at the reaction actually 😄

That was one of my favs that you wrote too Sy

As I Turn Away....

As I stand here

Your eyes tear

Wishing me to hear

Word so sincere

But I turn away

While you cry in dismay

Gods, I wish to stay

But the dreams will have their way

You scream words of love

But this is not what I wish to speak of

For I am mourning dove

Not someone I am proud of

Taking one last look at your face

And I leave without a trace

Yearning to fell your warm embrace

Knowing that I will soon be replaced.

😱

That one is profound hun. If there's supposed to be a message in it, I'm hearing you loud and clear.

I will say this only; give in Ash, stop fighting potential happiness.

👆 Loving the new sig as well, you little minx 😖hifty:

Thanks 😊
Love your new sig too!

WooHoo!! We're sexy little chica's now 😉

Right, I'm thinking of writing up my freestyling in here, the stuff I wrote when I battled with Underfeat aaaages ago. I know it's not poetry, but it's still an art form, and I want to have it somewhere I can find it. Because, well, I'm kinda proud of it 😮

So here goes.......

Argh!! Can't find it!!

I can't remember the name of the thread it was all in.......

Help cry

NOTE: FREESTYLING ON HOLD UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

*fanfare*

I so totally rock!!

*cough*

Yeah, so I found the thread, and it's no wonder I had trouble locating it, I mean, with a name like 'Rap Freestyle' it's gonna be hard......

😮

Yeah, I'm a dumbass, so without further ado, here's the link:

Rap Freestyle

It kicks off about halfway down the first page and finishes up at the end of the second, I think. Short battle, but I did whoop his "Underfeated" @ss diva

And I know I said I was just gonna write the stuff up myself, but I'm lazy. And honest.

For those of you who don't think Freestyling is an art form, that's fine. But I think Rap/Freestyle is to Poetry what Graffiti is to Art. Make of that what you will.

They're very good sy! I love them 👆

Thanks chica, I knew I could count on you 😉

Ash - I think you understand the concept, the crying smilie says it all 😉

Krabs - I wasn't having a pop at you hun, I was just trying to explain why all the poems seem to be about pain, or hatred. I, personally, think most poems are written this way because pain and hatred are such strong emotions. You'll remember a happy event clearly, but you will never have the scars and trauma you get from a tragedy.........

Yea no its cool. I am just saying that when you write i think it is good to write about the good things and bad things. To even things out. I write about pain all the time..but lately I notice other things too. Thats all I am saying

Well, I see that as a good thing in itself, if you are starting to notice the nicer things and are able to write about them.

Would you post some more poems in here? Maybe your happier efforts, to lighten the atmosphere?

Reflections

I gaze into the abyss,
Entranced by the sight, in stunned surprise.
I see skin tone,
I see flecks of colour in the eyes.
I see each tiny strand of hair,
So perfectly detailed,
And I wonder if everyone sees what I see there.
I reach up and touch my cheek,
To wipe away the glistening, salty wetness residing,
To cleanse the image,
Make it pretty,
Make it right,
To uncover whatever may be hiding.
Then I stop, and I drop,
My hand.
How can I make you understand?
It's exactly how I imagined it to be.
It's Me.

That was great Sy!

I wrote this one back in May.

A Cry For Help
I cannot find peace here,
I need to be free,
I want to go back,
But there's no chance to flee.

I wish I could love him,
But there isn't a chance,
There isn't a way,
We'd have a happy romance.

My friends live their lives,
I try to live my own,
But every time I get lost,
It just chills me to the bone.

Please help me,
I really need to find,
Something in my life,
I can call mine.

That one was really good Ash, but why so pessimistic about it?
