Poetry Anyone?

If anyone has any poetry or lyrics you've written, post it here! Something I wrote last night:

Forevermore roll the waves,
Lost within a nightly haze.
Upon the shores I would stand,
Feet firmly planted upon the sand.

This is what gives the breeze,
Underneath the shadowed trees,
The gift given through the ages,
Into the very soul it gazes.

So it's spotted here and there,
Around the people who truly care,
What was precious, given to us,
Should not be taken without just.

If I am gone, what would matter?
No effect on society's latter.
Something precious I did save,
But I also took the blade.

Forever more roll the waves,
Lost within a nightly haze.
Upon the shores I would stand,
If only someone could understand.

This isn’t a poem, it’s a venomous slant
Against people who try things,
Though they know that they can’t.
Then people like me have to clean up their mess
Who they think that they are is anyone’s guess
Now I’m not knocking courage, or drunken ambition
The promotion of forethought is my preordained mission
If you know you can’t do something, please let it rest
For guaranteed failure is failure at best
This may seem like a rant, a chewing-out even
But it’s just a reminder of pure, basic reason.

Before this topic dies:
Demi's song "dont forget" has inspired me to right poetry about (this is sad.. lol) about the girl i fell in love with, then moved, and now i cant remember her.
Don't forget - [http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=40838.msg401990;topicseen#new](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=40838.msg401990;topicseen#new)

Can't remember your face
Can't remember your name
All i see is your shadowy grace
I'm stuck in your broken picture frame

to be continued..... ;)

Ha, too bad that I only write poems in Dutch.

> Opus Magnum Immortalis
>
> Ooit begon de tijd te tikken.
> Plots begon de ruimte te bloeien.
> Uiterst snel spuwde de knal planeten uit zonder te mikken.
> Slechts enkele seconden gingen verloren aan het groeien.
>
> Maar wij mensen, zijn slechts een deel.
> Alleszins vergaan wij aan de tijd.
> Gezien door onze ogen zijn wij niet veel.
> Nu de tijd aan ons snijdt.
> Uitkijkend naar hoe de tijd verder tikt.
> Maar ook hoe hij ons in de zielen prikt.
>
> Is dit alles waar wij moeten om geven?
> Moge we dan nog eeuwen beven.
> Moordend is de tijd.
> Ook waar ik aan lijd.
> Reëel zouden we moeten wezen.
> Tijd zal ons niet genezen.
> Als de onsterfelijkheid niet te bereiken valt.
> Lach dan samen met uw naasten.
> In de hoop dat de tijd het leven minder vergalt.
> Slechts dan, hoeven wij ons niet te haasten.

Should be Opus Magnum Immortale, but then I would have only 19 rules instead of 20\. The non-poetry fixed translation from Google translate:

> Once started the time ticking.
> Suddenly the space began to flourish.
> Very quickly spit the bright (alternative: explosion) planets without focusing.
> Only a few seconds were lost to grow.
>
> But we humans are only a (small) part.
> We lost every time.
> Seen by our eyes, we are not much.
> Now the time us cuts.
> Looking at how the time is ticking.
> But how he stands in our souls punctured.
>
> Is this all we have to give a care about?
> May we then still be shaking for centuries.
> Murderous is time.
> Even where I suffer from.
> Realistic we should be.
> Time will not heal.
> If immortality is not achieved.
> Laugh together with your loved ones.
> In the hope that the time life less blights.
> Only then do we not have to hurry.

Regards.

It was in a complimentary manor, it was short and to the point, while most poems are long-ish and usually take things in a metaphoric way. :embarrassed: Xenonyte, that was very nice… I liked it  :cheesy:

Thorn, that poem seems like it could be turned into lyrics, they have a sort of musical scheme... I dunno why

Hello , you all know me very well
I have a poem so swell
That your hearts will overflow of warmth and love
And you'll think of your lover
"Compare her to one of the stars above":
that you won't discover
but read my poem nevertheless
Never be afraid to ask for more, be dauntless!

I drown in your blue eyes
You never liked me otherwise…
That's how it appeared to be according to me
I took my chance, in a glance,
without a lot of romance
Now we're together, happier than he
who sees hate on his face,
hating his beloved out of confusion
living without love nor grace,
I was once him, what a conclusion!

~~~Open/Close~~~
-By Irhymer-
–-----------------
One door closes
Another one opens
A new story blooms, just like red roses

I could never say "I've known you sinse 1st grade"
even a weekly phone call couldn't ease the pain

First it's St.Thomas, then it's Ft.lauderdale
Now I'm in Tallahassee, in social betrail

Once again...

That door will close
Another door will open
A bloomed rose dies, and its last words are "the end"

Story - This one is about me, and how my family moves to much. And when i say goodbye to one I have another to start over in.
