Poetry Personified
After discussing this at some length with Milla, we've come to the agreement that it would be interesting to start a sort of mixed poetry and artwork game.
She's suggested that I post some of my poems here, and allow our artists to draw their impression of the poems.
So, read the poems, choose the ones that catch your attention, and draw them how you see them.
Post the poem title that you have chosen along with your picture when you've drawn it, and I'll try to get my brain into gear and write some more........

Shy Guy.
Are you afraid that I will blow you out?
Well, don't be.
Are you scared that I will throw you down?
Well, don't be.
Are you unsure of how I'm gonna react?
Well, don't be.
Are you worried that I'll only attack?
Well, don't be.
You can be sure of interest.
I won't converse with you in jest.
You need to have some faith in you.
I'm waiting for a guy that's true.
Although it seems I'm out of your world.
I swear I'm human, I'm only a girl.
Don't judge reaction until you've tried.
What will you gain if you simply hide?
I'm terrified of changing the way that I am.
I shouldn't be.
I'm stuck in this farce, this theatre, this sham.
I shouldn't be.
I can't seem to move and I'm dying slowly.
I shouldn't be.
I'm treated as superior, something sacred and holy.
I shouldn't be.
So walk this way, and save my life.
I've had enough of the pain and strife.
You think it's easy, I can't be myself.
I'm a painted image of everyone else.
What they see, what they know.
It's all fake and for show.
My walls are rock solid and no-one knows shit.
But behind I'm in turmoil, a true misfit.

When You Crack.
You never see it coming do you?
It encases you in grimy darkness,
It's hard to inhale,
You feel so frail,
It's like you don't exist anymore.
You never see it coming do you?
It suffocates like a plastic bag,
Wrapped around your face,
Your heart begins to race,
It's like you don't exist anymore.
You never see it coming do you?
It strangles your mind and soul,
Sucks out all your might,
You lose the will to fight,
It's like you don't exist anymore.
You never see it coming do you?
Curled up like a child on the floor,
Screams that make no sound,
You've finally hit the ground,
It's like you don't exist anymore.
OMG! Syren that poem brought a tear to my eye. that poem reminded me of a time when I broke up with one of my ex-boyfriend. I was angry and I wanted to tell him off! Oh gosh, you wrote somethings I would have said to him back then. Thank you! That poem is very strong.

Uh, no, Krabs, if you read the first post you'll see that this isn't the place for other ppl's poetry. You can put them in Poetical Justice, but this is for artist's impressions of my poems. Sorry mate...........

What are you doing??
READ the first post, LilKitty and I have discussed the course of action in this thread, and as LilKitty is the Forum Moderator, and as she has already deleted your poems once, I suggest you follow the instructions given to you.
This thread is a tester for the impression of poetry idea, it is specifically for my poetry, and if it works I am sure we can continue with other people's poetry. Krabs, please co-operate. Make another thread, this one has been stickied for a reason.
