I write poems sometimes and became a professional at it. This is one I made a long time ago.
     I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY
I said a prayer for you today
     And I know God must have heard-
I felt the answer in my heart
     Although He spoke no word!
I didn't ask for wealth or fame
    (I knew you wouldn't mind)-
I asked Him to send treasures
    Of a far more lasting kind!
I asked that He'd be near you
   At the start of each new day
To grant you heath and blessings
    And friends to share your way!
I asked for happiness for you
    In all things great and small-
But it was for His loving care
    I prayed for most of all!

At the moment I am quite depressed, and I find poetry to be one way of letting out my emotions. So here are a few of my poems
Sanity
What is sanity?
Is it being like everyone else?
Following a routine?
Or is it something different?
Being different from the rest
Releasing pain through your arms
Secluding yourself from the living
Or...
Is sanity a figment of our imaginations?
Does sanity define a persons well being?
Does sanity affect every aspect of our lives?
To me being insane is a lot easier than being sane
Easier than being like the rest
Insanity is sanity
Scars
All these scars
They tell my story
Of how I became
The monster I am today
All these scars
They keep ripping open
Tearing me apart
Eating me from the inside out
My problem
Is I care too much
I let them walk
All over me
Use me
For all I can
Then throw me aside
It destroys me
My sanity is slipping
I can't handle this much longer
The pain
The suffering
Of it all
It eats away
At my insides
Slowly destroying
What's left of me
This monster I am
All these scars
Serve a purpose
To remind me
Of what I've done
To get this far
And lose it all
Over and over
Promises
There's part of me
that wants to give in
break those promises
destroy everything I've created
There's part of me
that wants to fight
keep those promises alive
Stay strong for those around me
There's part of me
all of me
that's dead inside
and can't find a purpose
scrambling for help
those promises bind me to this hell
These poems are all really dark, but they all explain a little about me. Like I said, I'm pretty depressed at the moment, but I find poetry a way for me to exhale the pain inside, and it helps tremendously

Okay, why are people posting THEIR poetry on MY thread? What the heck people?!

:P

Elder Ice

We're the Elder Ice
They've got no power here
They've got the Blades of Winter
We don't try to entice

Here,
Comes the nitty-gritty
Get down,
Watch your blood spill
Let's watch you cough your life out
You shouldn't have come

Now you're dead
Now you're dust
Why'd you come, human?

We're the Elder Ice
Don't try to conquer us
No blade can kill
No frost can chill

We're the Elder Ice

Something i must write
So on the front I'll be
This is written in my plight
For my friend Sierra to see

yes this is a cheap excuse for a poem
If there's someone better I know 'em
But I'm getting tired of typing
And will probaly start griping
------------------------------

I wrote this so I could have it on the front page. LoL...
