Poetry: The Pen is Mighty

Hey everybody... Just getting up... I hope its not as hot today like it has been... Its been crazy... Had a nice rainstorm though... Some pretty sweet lightning and the rain was definitely refreshing... Does a storm like that ever make any of you just feel like getting out a pen and paper? Well it does me...

I don't know why but i find that poetry is more powerful than any form of speech... Well not just any poetry... Some time you come across a bunch of words that just rhyme but have no real meaning... In my opinion, that is not poetry... To truly be poetry a writer needs inspiration to write or it's just words... That is why I consider poetry an art form... Poetry requires thought, meaning, an idea... It doesn't really matter what that idea is, it could be just about anything... But there is just something about poetry that has the ability to awww any reader, assuming it is good enough... Like a wow that's deep, or huh I never would have thought of that... I hope what I write has that ability...

Dreamworld

Living in nightmare,
One day to be there,
Some say, "This isn't fair,"
I say, "I don't care."
-
All this will mend,
When it comes to an end.
-
All will be unfurled.
We're just living in a dreamworld.


Destiny

The demons on our shoulders ever restless,
They say we're such a mess.
-
Why do we argue and why do we fight?
It is only to their delight.
-
Is it really that hard,
To keep pushing forward?
-
Win or lose,
Our hands alone will choose

Some older writings

Hey guys its me again. I was looking through some notebooks and found a couple older poems and figured I would post em on here. Hope my fiancĂ© doesn't mind as these were written after a break-up with a girlfriend long before our engagement. Oh well, I know she has read them before.

Torment


Adrift in a sea of lingering agony
Amusing how no one can see
This outer skin, so thin and frail
These eyes, filled with sorrow so pale
Suppressing emotion; holding the facade
Covering the emptiness of a heart so clawed
By deceit, ripped open once again
Never able to heal the pain
Quietly on the brink of insanity
Living on in endless vanity

Living in Misery


Fear, misery, and doubt
Alone, down, and out
A future, without you, I've dread
So much; left unsaid

Such Dispair-
     Now you're gone
On this nightmare-
     Will there come a dawn?
