@ Tifa- Of course you can join! Welcome! And I can't wait to read one of your poems! ^^ @ Carrot- Aw, you didn't get 1st... Well, at least you were in the top 5. And that's still an honor! Plus you get to get to be a writer for the newspaper! That seems like it will be so much fun. The newspaper club at my high school is more like a cult... So it's hard to join (Plus you have to be in the college level English class to be in it, whereas I'm only in the honors class. lol). But anyways, congratulations!  |

Darkness spinning all around Like Winter's snow Falling to the ground. Can't you hear my voice Make a sound? Upon the wind A song drifts on. Sweetly singing Till the dawn. Two lovers' hearts Beating as one. Passion's warmth Has begun... Upon the wind A song drifts on Sweetly singing Till the dawn. The breath of life Rises and falls Like the shadow Dancing on the wall. Look up at the sky to the place you use to fly… High above the clouds while watching the sun goes down… While watching the moon rise… Suddenly you stumble upon secrets that weren’t meant for anyone’s eyes… Finding the truth behind the lies… Finding that your joy is now your pain… Broken hopes, broken dreams, broken and tattered wings that use to carry you… As you look up at the sky to the place you use to fly… The place full of the lies you found… But as you look up at the sky you are too strong to cry… There is only one question you want to ask… “Why?†Clawing to stay in the shadow Avoiding the light at the cost of my life But then I see you reach out your hand to me I look at my safe haven to see which one it will be Sighing I take your hand timidly Stepping out of my shadows into the light Taking a risk and trusting you with my life.  |

@ Tifa- All three are very nice poems! I like Shadow the most, but all of them are very nice! @ Elle- Welcome to the club!!! I have a poem I made a few days back... But I forgot where I put it (I cleaned up my room yesterday and today I forgot where I put everything. I thought cleaning my room would help with organizing stuff but I guess not lol). I'll post it as soon as I find it. |

@ Tifa- No emotions are always fine! In fact, they give the poem feeling, which is key to making the reader feel the way you want them to when they read the poem. After a day of searching, I (finally) found the poem! This one isn't that great, but it's still a poem and I'd like to post it now. I probably won't be around here for a bit after this poem (12 days of school left until summer break and then finals... Ugh someone save me from them!), and this isn't a poem that I'm really proud of as well (more like a thing I did when I was bored in class lol). But it's something and so I'm going to post it... Dropping down through the clouds, Is this a race? I know I am falling, Only to go flat on my face. Rushing through the air, Through the stars, Through the clouds, Down to the cars. It is evil down here. I want out. So much that I will lose control, And cry and pout. I've tried to get to the stars, All on my own. To the safe stars, Yet I couldn't get there alone. But then a star came down, And picked me up. Brought me to my own heaven, Like a small innocent pup. I still watch the stars, Where the great are from. I will be up there one day, My time will come. |

Alright well delving back into my folders on my flash drive I discovered some of my more emo-ish poems back at a time in my life when I was kinda depressed but yet they are true to how I was at the time. Gomenasai in advance for the emo-ishness of these poems. But after all they are just poems that are a reflection of the past. In my heart I feel the pain I look for someone to blame What is this feeling that hides Can I truly tell if it all was a lie? You can see the torment in my eyes. Struggling to survive as I struggle to stay alive. Slow Death Falling into darkness Spiraling out of control Losing my sanity while Reaching for the blade Closing my eyes As the metal glides Over my skin Letting the blood Pour out from within As I slowly die. Numb to the Pain Red and warm streaming down While my arms hang loosely by my sides The silver blade echoes as it hits the ground I find no comfort in the sound Numb to the pain inflicted by my own hands I stand alone feeling guilty as guilt demands Guilty because I am numb to pain As my blood pours down like rain. Lost Soul Racing emotion built up inside The tears I cry As my anger flies The hurt of losing you The guilt over not seeing The signs that were in front Of me at the time The pain of my heart breaking Inside my chest The spark of life Slowly dies As I close my eyes The image of me in your arms Is all I seem to find No more tears No more anger No more guilt No more pain No more signs No more heartbreak When I return Resting my lost soul In your arms tonight. |

I am thinking of a good poem to write right now.. :D I got a solid topic and I am revved up to do it.. <3 I just hope that I can do some right word choices.. :D @Toyumi >LOL. Thanks for thinking that I can be first.. :3 (Or am I the only one thinking that? o.O). Well, the newspaper thing is, sadly, not that famous as the others.. D: But there are some who read them.. :D Oh, and by the way.. That poem is okay! :> Worthy of some praise.. :3 @Tifa >Welcome, welcome.. :D By the time I am typing this, you already have 6 poems... Hahaha.. :D That's cool.. :3 And they're nice by the way. .:D You write based on emotions you had by the time you're writing your works? I also do them, sometimes.. :D @Elle >Welcome.. :D

@Carrot Sank chu ^^ Being emo-ish isn't something that I like to be but still at the time of writing those poems that was the emotional state that I was in. I had to find some sort of way to express those feelings. Be it through words...or true to one of my poems the use of the silver blade that was my friend at the time. Sadly I still bear some of those scars. They will forever tattoo my years reminding me of the pain I once felt. But of course I am better than I was. ^^ |

@Holkers Why Sank Chu ^^ Those are just some that I dug out of my old archives that I had saved on my flash drive from like a couple years ago that I had wrote. But the Shadow, Fallen Angel, and Guardian Angel are ones that I made recently. ^^ Oh I found more of my old poems. I'll add them to this post. Standing alone in the rain Longing for someone to feel my pain Must this be where I remain? Wishing for you to reach out to me again. Pieces A drop of blood to fall from my wound A pain that hurts worse than normal A cry so soft that it doesn’t make a sound As the pieces of my broken heart hit the ground. Anger Anger thrown in deadly blows Takes the center of the show In the midst is a small glimmer of hope Between the two who hold the rope. |

Alright I've been pretty busy lately since my finals start in 2 weeks, and there's so many posts that have happened since I've first showed up around here so... @ Tifa- All of your poems look good, yet they're all sad or anger related. Try to be happy! (Of course that's easy for me to say) I especially like Lost Soul and Rain of Tears. @ Carrot- Well, even if it isn't that famous, it doesn't matter! It seems like a fun thing to be a part of (and you still have to do a good job for those loyal fans who read the paper!). And thank you! I tried to make it more of a symbolic poem (not really a rhyming one), so that's why it kind of sounds weird (at least it sounds a bit weird to me)... @ Holkers- Yeah it seems like a lot of people will be tied up until summer (including me lol, I'm pretty much only on to keep up with the RP's I'm in from now until the time school ends). @ Jo- You're welcome! And like what I said to Holkers, it seems like a lot of people are tied up until summer. But I hope it gets more exciting around here then! |

@Toyumi Like I said before I was digging back into my past archives of poems that I wrote two years ago at a time when the only way I could get any of that emotion out was through poetry. But trust me I've certainly changed since then. ^_^ I'm much more happier than I ever was two years ago and it is all because of everyone here on Gendou and my friends that I hang with everyday that have kept me alive today. So I will always be thankful and also very grateful. |

I only just noticed this thread, and I am an avid writer of poetry. It is something I really enjoy, and I also enjoy putting my poetry out there for others to read and relate to, though most of it is from heart and personal. I will eventually read all of the poems in this thread, but for now, I will put my information so that I may be able to join. Nickname: Wolf Reader or Writer: Writer    |

@ Cash- Welcome! Can't wait to read some of your poems! @ Anke- You're back! Then... Welcome back, I guess? (I am the welcoming committee so I guess a welcome back would count as one of my duties lol.) But now I'm the one who's gonna be gone for a bit, since my finals care coming up in a week... Not looking forward to them at all. Well anyways, it's good to see you around again! Anyway, this is a short haiku I made awhile ago and just recently found again. I'm not sure if I got the 5-7-5 syllable pattern right... I keep on repeating it and thinking that it's fine, but then again I'm not sure, especially with the second line. Time is delicate It can be hard to grasp But easy to go |

@ Toyumi - Well thanks! Haha it's nice to have a welcome back! I wish you good luck on your finals! That is an awesome haiku by the way! I admire people who can write them because I find it extremely difficult! @ All - I think I have everything updated!!! If you look at the front post and notice that I left something out please PM me!!! I'm hoping to be on more frequently again now that my school has let out! |

Here you go people here's a new one that i made recently. ^_^ this is such a fun thread. I love being able to share my thoughts and emotions through writing. Fire burning Across my skin My very core Shaking deep within Desires aching To feel again... After so long Of being untouched By Another's hands Trembling fingertips Brush against my skin As I close my eye I start to spin Finally collapsing And breathing again. |

To be completely honest, a few people have seen all my poems already, but most haven't, so I will go ahead and post a few of my poems on to here. As a note, all of these poems have deep personal meanings to me, but maybe not to you. Bonus points if you figure out in what ways that they relate to me and my life. One deep and depressing, one happy and uplifting. Enjoy. I will never be perfect, I know this well. People never listen to the stories I tell. They call me weird and worthless, among other things. They don't even know about the pain that brings. No matter what I say, I am always wrong. What I can't say to them, I put into song. The lyrics are never heard as I break into tears. Time and time again, reality becomes my worst fears. If I am quiet, then I am weird. If I am nice, then I am creepy. If I am depressed, then I am ignorant. If I am outgoing, then I am stupid. If I am in love, then I am immature. Sometimes I wish things would go right. And when I wish, I wish with all my might. But as they always do, They never come true, Flawed is my life, always shall it be. Countless dreams float endlessly Upon the clouds in the sky. All those dreams involve one thing, No matter what I try. Star gazing, a walk on the beach, One element always stays true. That one element that captivates my dreams, That single element is you. In school, at work, it matters not, Those dreams continue to form. I continue to thank God for the miracle That was the day you were born. Though times may be hard for us both, In my dreams they are not. We both have the best type of happiness, The one that isn't bought. |
