I figured we didn't have any Poetry of any sort here at H.O.N. except for a couple random topics lost through out time. So yeah. This is just like the Quote topic, only for Poetry. You can put up your favorite Poems or just some poem you stumbled across or one of your own poems that you wrote. If you have low self-esteem then you can put you own works as "anonymous" and no one will be sure who wrote it. But that wouldn't be any fun. ------------------------------------- Just to get us started off, I read this one in school today... Dreams- By Langston Hughs Hold fast to dreams For if dreams die Life is a broke-winged bird That cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams For when dreams go Life is a barren field Frozen with snow. |

I wrote this haiku years ago... Deep black ponds engulf Me as I gaze into their Gorgeous silver eyes |
| Because I knew you, I have been changed for good... | |

Mother to Son- Langston Hughes Well, son, I'll tell you: Life for me ain't been no crystal stair. It's had tacks in it, And splinters, And boards torn up, And places with no carpet on the floor -- Bare. But all the time I'se been a-climbin' on, And reachin' landin's, And turnin' corners, And sometimes goin' in the dark Where there ain't been no light. So boy, don't you turn back. Don't you set down on the steps 'Cause you finds it's kinder hard. Don't you fall now -- For I'se still goin', honey, I'se still climbin', And life for me ain't been no crystal stair. |

a sad poem i made when i was depressed (i am no longer depressed): I want to cry, buyt i do not shed tears, may the sorrow die, may i forget my fears. and this is the improved version: I want to cry, so my sorrows die, but i can't find the tears, to help forget my fears. |

Would you like fries with that?

Hmm, all of those poems are really great. I've written a lot but if I posted most of them, you would believe I was a sad, depressed emo kid with no purpose in life. |

ehh they all suck but here we go I wrote this one when I was so mad at someone i could barely breathe. These chains called lies are dragging you down You're gasping for breath / air Its only a matter of time till you drown But still no one really cares Has there ever been any truth you've told? We all know facts bent = problematic But its too late; your soul's sold A devil's lie-spitting addict Fast foward and then please stop Skip this part; ive already heard it Pause again; your crap is nonstop The description "homewrecker" seems fit. |

my dad died recently, and i had to write a poem containing certain stuff for english... here's a poem for both: I know you're somewhere better, Though you may be gone... Death came down with God's letter that said your life was done. I see your soul sitting somewhere serenly: Your eyes are stars in the sky. Your voice with the angels'- that is seemly. I whisper a quiet goodbye. My father, who art in heaven, I will love you always. |

Something I just scribbled up. Just some writing in my preferred poem-esque form. When I look to the stars my mind wanders, Where it goes is usually quite simple, But how it get there always varies, Sometimes I go through this way, Other times I go down that other path, Yes, the means may vary from time to time, But the place in which I end? Never. For each and every time I look, Somehow my mind finds its way, To a place I've never been, And I see myself sitting, Next to a person I've never met, A beautiful girl I've never seen, A wonderful land I've never visited, And each time my mind wanders there, I find myself reminded of a wonderful thing, A wonderful, wonderful girl in a land far away. |

Wow, that was pretty. Reading back on some of the poems I hadn't noticed long ago, I find we have some good poets here. Chrono's Soup one was a bit, well, strange. |

Lost in the dark scary part of my mind

I liked Chrono's. Uh, this one is something that I got published. It's actually something that I wrote for a book, from one character to another. Not my best, but I'm nominated for Poet of the Year for it.....*embarrassed smile* My poetry sucks. These Three Words My heart races, My breath quickens Glance my way The world disappears. I cannot breath, I cannot speak. Say my name, And I fall. Is this love? This rapid fluttering In my chest. This amazing sensation I've never felt Before and will Never feel again. I love you. These three words I don't understand. These three words They consume me. Just three words. I love you. But it's enough. This one's sad, but also published.... In the End I'm drowning out my future, I'm locking out my past. Tomorrow doesn't matter, Yesterday is slipping fast. I hate the world I live in, I despise what I've become. A hollow shell withdrawn from life, Never moving on. I'm failing all I want to do, I'm falling far from grace. My life dissolves before my eyes, I'm gonna lose this race. The race for time, for memories, The race of tears, forgetting me. Someone help me, please! I died long ago. Happiness I'll never know. For in the end, I'm dead to you. You just never noticed. :P |
