This is a bit of a forum game, but at the same time it has the capacity to result in a bit of poetry, so it goes here. I'm going to supply a line of poetry, and the following poster is to create a poem using the line I gave as their first. Along with their poem, they supply a line for the next person to write poetry on. No restrictions on the type of line or poetry; just keep the line open ended.
paralysis of sleep, drifting deep, To passages of mind and thoughts I keep. Falling, crawling, the enthralling scenes of horror do unfold. The venom spreads and I do dread Sleeping as the wights take hold. Guilty thoughts that sting and ring All the wrongs forgot for long now sing. My ears ring with fears diving To the withered ground through striving, Crushing those opposing with my boots, Only to be tripped by the ragged roots. I flee fast from demons past, Glaring, staring with spiteful eyes. I cannot hide inside my own head, And I stumble My world crumbles And it is silent As the dead.
Holy mackerole that took a long time. Will I get ninja'd? Will I? will I?
Between my fangs you will feel The darkened gaze of death. And as my jaws bite down You'll breathe your final breath. I'll devour all of your heart, Your soul and dreams are mine, And as you struggle to be free, Only rusty chains you'll find. Who am I? You ask as I coil, Inside my hellish lair, And I say, grin spreading wide, I am called despair.
and this is why i try not...... such beauty out of adversity no?
passing by passing by that over-bearing door, sleeps my love forever more. We walk to school and days go by, i tell her "i love her" and we wave good bye. Sweet days become weeks, weeks become months, months become years, and i do not know it, an omen is coming but she never showed it. To my dement i see one day, a moving van going far far away. She blew me a kiss with tears in her eyes, and i fell to my knees and started to cry. WHY WHY WHY, would she leave, we said we'd be together no one would ever leave, then it all came to a hault as i cryed in a daze, i have been a mouse lost in a maze. 15 years it has been now, off to college to forfill her vow, "a doctor" a doctor she said to me, i remember her face filled with glee. Here i am now tall as a tree, she went off, but it must be we. To her studies, to my studies we have gone, years go by and i have gone, to school, to paradise, to hell, to university, never forgetting this trajedy.... Now we stand at the alter, she a doctor, i a lawyer, i give her my ring and say "i do" never again we be two, FOREVER MORE, ME AND YOU.
Forever more, me and you How I implore, me and you We will dance, me and you Give it a chance, me and you We shall live, me and you Nothing to give, me and you
Me and you, we'll laugh away our fears Me and you, we'll cry away all our tears But you'll move on and leave me here Standing atop a high cliff pier. The earth has never seemed so clear. It is goodbye, my love, I fear.
Well that turned out more depressing than I thought it would. :P
Don't let me die Go and let him deify The great, new deserving One, who is he, the one who ring Ah, I shall now bid adieu As this poem, sense it doesn't make Then again, doesn't the world not make sense?
have the fun. Have some fun my friend, for life will surely come to an end. Unknown to us all, there will be a final curtain call. So have some fun while u can, before u are an old man. Enjoy these days runing, jumping, laughing, HOORAYY, become u reach ur final day. Play, play, play all day, run laugh, listen i say. These days are numbered for u and i, one day we will wave bye, good bye. Before u know an adult u will be, no running, laughing, climbing trees. So to u i say ENJOY YOUR LIFE, dont let it end in old man's strife.
Blossom of the everlasting tree Waiting for centuries to be free Rooted to the same withered spot Fated to live and never rot. It's tangled roots reach ever deep And into the Earth they forever creep Holding the jagged rocks together It will last but till forever.
