Poetry

[terria]

The second one is weaker
A shadow that doesn’t take all light away
But tells me that he could do worse to me
Because the second sun is weaker
Dying
Singing songs about departure
So bitterness calls back her children
Spreads her shadow-wings
Whirls up the dust
And leaves

And but a trace remains

Strange patterns in the dust




now i don't think that my part is too good but it it's better if i don't give any excuses for there mustn't be any. still, i love this idea, won't be the last one of this type, just wait some time,
i am strong at the moment so i am able to give...

btw, is anyone in here able to sing undertones? i learnt it yesterday and i'd say it's a shame that it isn't taught in schools because it's so unbelievably STRONG

life is wonderful

 

[GrandMelancholy]

just a short (but not neccesarily sweet) one for y'all...

Fall into me
Fall into my dreams
Fall into every one of my last hopes
Fill me
Every one of my broken fragile dreams
Fall with me
Stay with me and save me from my own and every darkness


hmm.. i'm a bit rusty at the moment...must be all the absolut..

First time postin' here...got reffered by Malveaux, nice to meet you all


Hand in hand walk down the dream
Goals mistaken, the truth hidden, unseen
The way cleared for but one, one must leave
Part ways, remember better days
Trying to walk down a dream
A dreamcatcher resting, above the bed
At it's head
Nothing did it catch, only cobwebs has it seen
Dreams aren't for catching, only you can make them be
So don't try to walk hand in hand
Trying to catch a dream

Welcome aboard, my friend. It's great to have you here. I really hope you'll stay a while, enjoy this umble fire and sit around it with us, sharing your tales and poetry with us .

Okay, I've catched a cold, as well as a hammering headache (I hope I'll be fine for NYD... it would really suck to be ill during that day), and this poem came outta blue some minutes ago...

Silvery dawn
Deep, drowning
Down the dark
Endless stairs of suspect
Interminable steps of doubt
First fires in the dusk
Dancing in the air, golden dust
Violet stripes
Eclipsing sky
The floating line
Between wake and
The silver sand of dreams.

anything to get out of my uni revision, so i whipped this up, should've worked on it for longer but what the fuck...
------

Can i find that sanctum
that i have so long yearned for?
"My yearning to be part
of nature's truthful solitude"
Can i find Tranquillity?
For everything i've ever dreamed of has withered
into nothingness and died away from me
Do i even need to ask if there is still hope?
Hope that maybe "my soul still rises longingly"
to the words and touch of anyone who cares?
It is time to admit defeat and leave
And time perchance to see
"What secrets may be mine to brother-share as we depart"?

its not plaigerism its inspiration

Remembering
Walking down that lane
I knew we'de never be the same
I knew I meant nothing to you
But you meant everything to me
It tore me up inside
It still tears my heart apart
Remembering the good times
They weren't nothing but lies
Walking with you that day,
I knew we'de go our seperate ways

Maybe one day it'll all change
All you brought me was pain
But I'de take you back
I could never turn you away
Blame it on me, say I'm the reason for your misery
Rip my heart out, destroy me inside
That's all I'm good for anyways
Self esteem, I never had any
That ain't gonna change
You know you can walk all over me
I'll take it any day

So maybe one day,
You'll think about me
We can give it another try
Start it all over again
You can walk all over me

never fear GM:

(a bad haiku for you)

This dwindling thread,
O Glory fading so long,
Flowers tasting blood.

Tonight we become
one together as one so
don't leave, so don't leave.

Darksides of bright Moons,
Sickness marching over Sand,
Crash, Crash, Crush, and Dash.

Kiss these words today,
Bless horizons tomorrow,
To fuck Destiny.

 

[Jackle]

A rope hangs, your fate sealed by another's hand
Through the mist a shadow steps
Dark, movement so fast
Can you even comprehend
Spoken words, now you know your true demise
After death your world
Fallen below
In fire you will know, forever burn
Glowing, a candles light
Your flesh a wick, never will it die

It takes me a long time to write in English.

So write it your own language, and if in need to make it international (to open it to larger audience) have someone translate it for you.
That's also go for VultureCulture problem - this way you lose the rhymes! People, obviously, express themsleves better in their own language - the language they feel in, think in and dream in.

 

[Malaclypse]

come to think of it... no, wait, i think i'll start a new topic for this one

 

[sinsofman]

For totem I search
In Winters cloak, a cold warmth
To find myself, death

@keisi: that's a great idea, indeed!
I might dare to try to translate your poems for this audience .

through mists at dawn

carried faintly asleep
through roaming mists at dawn
and as the surface prepares
to give you away, should your hold weaken
the warmth of illousion
gently slips from your mind
and burdened by this weight of reason
und misunderstanding
you plunge onward into dissent
pray for lies
and lie streched in long files
one of the few
one of the many
and prepare to let go of pretension
one in the know
one in turmoil

I blame not the sunrise obscured
that sparks agreement in mellow shades
on whitest snow
through mists at dawn

 

[TexasFriedCriminal]

heavens wide

whispered haunts of midnight fevers
lust and pain in broken disarray
indulgence held in chains of sweetes embers
devour all men before you bend
hover as an angel, refusing to fall
in heavens wide

speak never the truth
neither of dreams nor doubts
strangle the womb of emotion
and burden souls with regret
nurture the hunger
that serves you so well

break not a sweat as you dance
to the slow beat of drunken hearts
rich with the wine that you crave
feed on minds, feed on souls
starved of fluid

heave your facade
upon this pedestal, for all to see
and then deface what all believe
and hand over the seven hearts
that you have stolen

the center point of all light
attention undivided
all eyes stare, all hearts hunger
as in departure you dance, to the slow beat of the wind
in heavens wide

@sinsofman: it's not about a single girl (me being male and straight) but about a lot of them. my love has NEVER been requited.

@all: i love you all it's great to see you keepin it alive, i am just too busy at the moment no inner peace no energies so i hope i can trust you when it comes to keep it rollin

Don't think anyone will let it die....not yet at least


In the end, you know this life'll never end
Just remember what you've seen
Look back into that shadowed alley
Your sinking, your goin' underground
Your fallin' down, down, down
Oh no, you gotta run.....Oh no
Run, or they'll run you down
Sinking, sinking, down, down, deep underground

 

[Jackle]

Your taught what's wrong and what is right
Always try your best, try to make the best of your life
Make a contribution, the thanks of brothers, sisters, none sincere
All they want is your time, give your all
they won't help you with your life
Turn their backs, leave you fallen, broken
They'de leave you in the gutter, they don't really care about you
They only care about what you can do for them
Take back your pride
Throw away their lies
Not your friends, they'de watch you die
Leave you bleeding till the end
Remember the faces of your true friends
They'll hold you high, stand by you till the end
Remember me my friend
We'll stand up together, get up together
Stand tall, stand proud
I'll stand by you till the end

 

[Jackle]

A river of blood, through the darkness, through the mist.
I see them, watching me.
The damned, the bringers of my misery.
I hear them screaming, they scream for me.
Follow we will set you free.

I am forgotten, once you loved me.
Joy filled my life, through the darkness we broke,
To bask in the light, I am fallen.

When I scream, give me your hand. Catch me as I fall.
Watch me as I fall, you could be my saving grace,
Remember how we once were, how we could have been.

Feel their rage, the heat, it's ecstasy.
But I'll wait, I'll wait. I'll drag you down with me.
We'll never be safe, we'll never be free.
I'll drag you down, into the depths of my misery.

when all my deeds have become precious ashes
will you weep at my grave ?

for we are the mists that cover the twillight hours
and as dawn breaks in glorious silence
we must fade from her splendid sight

mother recieve thy child in fury
let me rest in the arms of serenity
when all my deeds have become precious ashes

who will write the epitaph ?
who will enter the sphere of silenced thought?
for we are clouds, divided in storms
for we are leaves,
torn from the branches where we knew each other
as autumn falls.

when all my words have become fading echos
will you still hear my name?

for we are the moment, the breaks in the blink of an eye
my moment arrived, past now and silence remains
who will cater to the memory ?

father let anger subside
I lay down my heart at your side
now that the dawn is my bride

who will comfort the day?
who will cunsume the remains ?
let the feast of rats begin
for we are decay, we struggle in dissaray
torn from the secure shelter of youth
innocence brought abuse

mother let silence reign
thy heart and mine are in pain
onto perfection, I am the stain

and now the dawn is my bride
and I am but a moment of night
meant to fade in the coming of light

and who but I will know?
and who but I can tell?
for we are but waves, shaping the shore
and as the morning tide arises
not a trace left in the sand

your face and mine...
a sand-painting's vanishing lines

and when all my deeds have become precious ashes
who will weep at my grave ?
