Poetry
The forum felt dead so I decided to liven it up a little with my poetry. Feel free to post your own works and comment on mine. This is one I wrote for a girl, not too long ago. Long story short, she shot me down. Anyways, to really understand it, the situation is: I'm a Junior in HS and she is a Senior. She will be going to college in Southwest Ohio. I will be going to college in Iowa. Her freshman brother who I have become friends with because we both play on the baseball team hooked us up for prom. It was an awesome night, so I decided to try to take it a step further and wrote this for her. Katie As I stand watching this glowing sunset I wish you were there by my side To share in this brief eternity Indulging in each others thoughts Tearing down these barriers that seperate us Getting lost in each others eyes Traveling to where we want to be Only to end up right where we are Drawing ever closer to each other Knowing we will soon have to part But that will not be good bye For our newfound bond will hold us together The sun is now slipping under the horizon And it is the end of another day But it is just the beginning of a new era Sparked by one little kiss So this is my dream That could very well become reality If you were to accept my offer And allow me to take your hand Here is one that I wrote that many people have told me it's very deep. Kinda funny that this one is the result of my girl problems. These Feelings I am but a shadow of my former self Ever present, but never noticed The ashes of my remains blow across the sea And through the hair of those I once loved Damn these emotions that won't let me let go Seemingly binding me to these people Who have long since turned their backs on me Their faces haunt my dreams And cause my world to spin These images mock me For I cannot let the pain they cause show If only I could let go Of these damn emotions

Wow Baron those are both amazing poems. I used to write poetry and I don't think mine ever touched the plateu that yours is on. They are both deep and meaningful especially to anyone who has ever been in love and longed for the connection and or lost that connection. You've got talent. I'd like to see more if you decide to post more. Great job.

Thanks. I kinda get that a lot. Here's more This one I wrote while I thought I was in love. It is not to anyone in particular. I know my english is bad, but I think it makes the poem flow better. Judgement Day When the trumpets sound and the charriots arrive I want to be holding your hand standing side by side When the buildings crumble and the cities fall You and me will be standing tall As the waters come and the Earth floods We will hug each other and declare our love Just as the sun fades on civilization You and me will kiss in heaven This is the first poem I wrote a little over 3 years ago. It was shortly after my 14th birthday when my grandma died The Swan On the Shelf Like the swan on the shelf We are fragile as glass Some become great Others become flawed And like the swan ont he shelf We are all a creation Formed by God To what we are today But like the swan on the shelf Our lives can shatter in an instant The fragile swan glittering beautifully In peices, on the floor One more just for kicks. I can't say this is one of my better poems, but I like it anyways. Stones of Beauty Ruby, emerald, or saphire Which one fuels your desire All three are quite nice As clear, as pure as ice Take for example, saphire Ignites the soul like a burning fire Shining brilliant in mezmerizing ways Never ceasing, not once, to amaze Then there is emerald Serene, peaceful, and cold Putting the soul at ease You can be sure it will always please Finally we have ruby With it's flame so hot You'll like this one a lot So pick the one that suits you best The jewel to hang upon your chest

Nice job baron. I wrote a few but I'm too shy to show them haha.....

It's all right. I'm just used to sharin them with my friends and anyone else who wants to read em. Here's a new one! Ashley I can hear it in your voice I can see it in your eyes The words you leave unspoken Like rain left in the sky You don't have to speak at all I know exactly what you'll say and I have to admit I think about it every day I think about the future And what it may behold If only I could hold you To protect you from the cold With long sweet kisses That never seem to end And stroking your hair As it blows in the wind And now at the end Of us being apart I stare you in the eye And give you my heart

Here's a good one. Final Goodbye You're pressed up against my heart And I'm stroking your long sweet hair Just as we've done So many times before But there is a certain soberness in the air Of this late summer night Tonight my shoulder is wet With your salty tears And my lip quivers But not out of fear Steam rises from our bodies As we slowly sway back and forth We lock our wet eyes And slowly kiss just once more We know this is the final time We'll be able to hold each other tight For tomorrow it's off to Iowa To begin the rest of my life
