Poetry
 
Ok, you can post new poetry On here I didn't check the forum for any other Poetry Threads so if there is another you can close this one but anyways. Here's one of mine.

Perfect Harmony


When I felt your
Warm lips press against
Mine...
It was heaven
As I felt your
Body press against
Mine...
I smile, we drifted
Drip, drip
What's that noise?
I opened the bathroom
Door...
I saw you, perfect poise,
Blood dripping from your,
Neck...
A shallow cold pool
Of blood
Drip, drip,
Tears filled my eyes,
One flowed down my cheeks
My knees, fell to the ground
I stared upon your face,
When I felt your
Warm lips press against
Mine...
It was heaven
As I felt your
Body press against
Mine...
I smile, we drifted.

wow... really good. I'm gonna post one lol.

A Wonderful World

The nights grow longer
The days grow colder
Wishing time would stop
Faking a smile everyday
Of her horrible life
She tries so hard
To hide the scars
She sits in school
Dreading going home
Knowing what waits
Once she enters
Those horrible gates
She dreams of the day
She'll finally be free
To be carefree and loved
Not hated and scorned
She comes and leaves school
Fighting tears back everyday
Wishing someone could help
But also knowing that price
That would be paid if so
As she sits there and dreams
Her eyes start to tear
Wishing no on could hear
The sad, sorry tears
She dreams about death
In this cold lonely place
Never knowing true love
Or what it could have been
She tries so hard
To hide the scars
Faking a smile everyday
Of her horrible lie
Because the nights
They grow longer
And the days
They grow colder
But then, that
Wonderful day came
She was finally free
And all her dreams
Turned into reality
She was finally happy
She cried no more tears
all of her fears
simply disappeared

Oki doki ..So, I`m not posting on your topic because I`m an kisser and feel the urge to comment on your poem because you commented on mine. I posted so late because I didn`t know what to write to you and I didn`t wanted to make it a lame post (seriously lack of sleep makes me think better :) ) .So here goes nothing: I liked your poem ..and if it`s not about suicidal love ..than I`m lost ..it`s a little simplistic and doesn`t leave too much room to interpretations ..my opinion :o

The Dreading

Uncontrollable vengeance
Fighting to restrain
Knowing anger and grievance
Never-ending pain

Feel my dreading

Clenched fists
Challenging glares
Rage is just the gist
Of my gritted bare

Feel my dreading

Wanting to stop it
To just freeze everything
Comes back to haunt
Coldness of the world sings

Feel my dreading

Death descends
Ever-impending doom
The prophecy of end
Hidden in the gloom

Feel my dreading

Hatred manipulates
Trapped in one's body
The darkness escalates
Can't break free

Feel my dreading

Tales of the dead
Awakening the worst
Resisting my fate
But unable to curse

Feel my dreading

One last hope
Life seeps in
As you try to grope
Just to find a helpless grin

Feel my dreading

Falling out of love
That hope is lost
As my bleeding heart lurks
In the shadow of yours

I dread...

OOOHHHH, Cooly...getting chills, nicely done!! It is so awesome...:D

CoolNard 03-18-2007 10:02 AM

Heh, I made it up on the spot but thanks.. I guess it's cuz i'm feeling like this now.. >_<"

WTF???!!??? Aieeeeeeeeeeeeee! Help! Help! He's after me! He's gonna kill me... It's him It's him! I know it's him..

*Takes of cross, does some warding signs, drinks holy water (and some brandy for good measure) and sprinkles it all over (the holy water that is) starts chanting about sheperd and sheep and little bow beep... the warm air surrounds him yet he shudders :coldbear:*

My god CN! Vividly descriptive...! Wonderful poetry!

Since you also asked for an expert opinion here are a couple of tips:

1. Your rhyme scheme is very good but you didn't stick to meter very well. That would have taken this already excellent poem to the next level. Meter basically denotes the count of syllables (as pronounced not read) per line. The first verse started out as a 3 syllable meter per line but the second verse and thereafter deviated and came back in spurts.

2. Lucid imagery but its spread a little thin. You could add a couple more verses in between to even out the flow, coz otherwise it might appear a bit disjointed. Take verses 2, 3 and 4 for example. Verse 2 talks about your feeling toward someone or something else. Verse 3 jumps to how you wish to feel about yourself while verse 4 jumps immediately to something that describes the moment from a third perspective.
Now, this sort of jump can sometimes be good, but you need to have more lines per verse to make it good so that when the reader does make a jump, a trail of smooth thought settles behind.

Just my two cents worth, hope I didn't say something wrong :o... I'll say it again, it's brilliant poetry and I'd just love to see you write some more too

*Rushes off to phone publishers on this profitable deal*

CoolNard 03-18-2007 01:02 PM

So I just made two mistakes then? XD~! Whew.. not bad for a first-timer eh? That was better than I expected =P
Thanks for the pointers, Aoshi-kun! I'd love to read your works of poetry too :D

You'll find them in the Insane Dahlia thread (one of them has got 4,3 meter but the other is free verse) and of course in your very own poetry thread Nard-kun

P.S:- They weren't mistakes... A mistake is when you do it wrong. This was just a case when it could be even better! :vsign:

CoolNard 03-18-2007 03:18 PM

Right, thanks :vsign:

CoolNard 03-19-2007 06:52 PM

It could never measure up to your standards, Insane-sama XD but thanks either way :D

angellight 03-24-2007 03:13 PM

me and nard decided to both make a poem based on the same themes..and this was what we came up with..

nard's:

Still got many words I haven't said to you
Still got a lot of gifts which I haven't given
Parting ways is always so sudden
Sometimes without even a clue
Why it happened
Even before I revealed everything
How much tears you must have shed alone
A fool I am for not knowing
My self-ignorant acts I simply cannot condone

Only you, when I'm not talking
Know what my hearts wants to say just by looking in my eyes
Only you who hears my blessings
Know fully well this is not the reason my heart cries

Afraid of letting you discover that to make you stay is my plan
Forgetting my passionate pleas
Love and lies go hand in hand
Indulging in ridiculous fantasies
Remember you said that when I'm by your side
Anywhere on Earth is heaven
Smiling brightly like a child without pride
You lighted up my grey and dim den

Only you, when I'm not speaking
Know what my hearts wants to declare by observing my trends
Only you who hears me wishing
Know fully well this is not what my heart intends

Please don't go, living is impossible without you
My whole life revolves around your existence
You will forever be my one and true
Although in front of you I may appear clumsy
The sole reason is because of my failure to behold
The dazzling miracle that is you

and mine:

when the day loses it's light
and the emptiness turns cold
like an eagle in full flight
you leave me with no-one to hold
not a whisper was spoken
not a single tear fell
like a falling vase - it's broken
this enchantent over - a useless spell
how could these have eluded me
how could i possibly oversaw
the tempest in the calmest seas
and the thief at the door
i want so much to make you stay
yet i know not how
perhaps this is the price i must pay
but all i know is i need you now
i remeber that in my arms you spoke
that heaven was enveloped within
upon those words now i choke
and pray forgiveness for my sin
i realize now that you are my sun
that that very heaven was you
without which my world seems dun
veiled in darkness and lost in the blue
somehow you seem to know what i'm saying
just by looking me in the eye
you know full well just what i'm praying
so is this how we say goodbye
all my life i'm wondered if miracles were true
and i wonder why i've never been shown
but now i understand, for now i've known
that the most beautiful miracle, was you

well..if you've read it you'll see that what's in mine is basically the ideas from his, and tt's because he made me make a poem based on his..-.-

o well..happy happy joy joy..lalalalala..oro *.*
