@ Cash - Could the first one be about restricting parents perhaps? Parents that think everything you do is wrong and have stellar expectations? I don't know if that is right, but it's just a thought. Those poems remind me of a close friend of mine. The second is sweet and the first one sad, I like them! It's a good use of words as expression!


Guys! From now on only post one poem at a time! I'm gonna put it the rules but here is a heads up!
Sorry, it's just easier for me to code into the poems list...:D Thanks for understanding!

Oh my! It really has been a while since I posted some of my work! Well here is something I wrote today!


My Liefde

You say to me,
“Ek is lief vir jou,”
and suddenly I feel so much lighter,
because that phrase is never said enough
and it sound so sweet coming from your lips.

I look at you and you smile,
And my heart skips a beat,
Because your smile could light up my world in it’s darkest hour
And I know that you will always be there to smile and make me feel better.

I hug you and your arms wrap around me tight
And suddenly I feel so safe and secure
Because I know you will be with me when I stand up against this world.

I take your hand and feel your warmth
And I know that I can take on the world
Because your love gives me wings
And your smile gives me light
and your arms give me a home
and you become my world,
My Liefde.



Note: “Ek is lief vir jou,” means "I love you" in Afrikaans. and "My Liefde" is my love in Afrikaans. My boyfriend is South African, and this poem is obviously written for him :"> I hope you guys like it!

@ Cash- Nice poems, I like Dreams of Happiness, but they are both good! (It's just nice to see a happiness type of poem, since it is much easier to write a depressing one. I've tried writing them both, and I find that writing a happier poem is much harder.)

@ Anke- Such a cute poem! Aw I wish I was in love like that... I've tried to be in love and apparently... Love doesn't like me. Rofl.

@Anke Of course Anke-sama ^^

My latest poem i made.
Falling
Falling outta the sky
I close my eyes
Tears rain down
Pale cheeks stained.
Broken wing,
Tattered, torn
Catching me as I
Fall outta the sky.

Why did you sacrifice
Your life for mine?
Without your light
I cannot shine.
My teardrops
Slowly tick away
The time.

These broken wings
Tough tattered,
And torn,
Manage to still catch me
When I begin to fall.

@ Tifa- Good poem, but it seems too short. It's a good start, but it just seems like more could be added to it. But that's just my opinion.

I was bored in school since all we're doing is preparing for the finals, so I made this poem to keep myself occupied. Sort of a bitter-sweet type of poem now that I read it again.


Soft Snow

It takes all my courage,
All my breath,
To call your name.
I hope your feelings are the same.

Your smile can light up my way,
And that makes my troubles disappear.
Yet I still need to know,
If you love me so.

I have traveled far and wide,
In the search for you.
But I found you in the strangest place,
Though it does not matter as long as I can see your face.

Here I am.
And you speak.
Your sweet reply,
Could make me die.

Your words put me at ease,
You love me as well.
I relax now that I know;
I am ready to be engulfed by this world of snow.

But there is one more task,
One that Is obligated.
I take a kiss and rest my eyes.
And then my spirit slowly dies.

@ Tifa - It is a nice poem like Toyumi suggested you might want to expand on it, but either way I like it ^.^

@ Toyumi - It is bitter sweet, but I rather like it!

Hi there,
It’s been awhile again.
More and more poems are posted in day after day.
How can I miss out all this poems.

(page 3)
Wow, more people are joining in.

@Jon
Hi there,
Welcome to this club as well*nice to see you around*
That poem you’ve written, not bad at all. Love it!

@Fenris
(Resonance of souls)->I like your poem a lot, awesome.

@Carrot
Thanks for the compliment.
Anyway, congrats to you too for getting top 5 in your school's literary contest.
Awesome, it’s not easy. Especially now you must be one of the writers for your university newspaper.

(page 4)
@Tifa
I'm rather late here, still how can I miss out your wonderfully written poems.
Although there are a few really short poems however it is pack with a lot of meaning.
Your poems even made me somehow emotional. (x.x)

@Elle
Welcome! Hope to see you around.

@Toyumi
All the best to you!!
(Watching the Stars) -> isn't bad at all.
You can just straight away write it out. Awesome!
(Soft Snow)- sadly portray.. still love it.

@Cash
Hi there.
The way you portray your poems is great. Lots of different expressions and emotions.
Hmm, does the first one have to do with the people around you especially your parents, doesn't understands you
and somehow didn't spend much time to know your problems.
Well, i like both of your poems.. especially the Dreams Of Happiness. Its so nice to be happy.

@Anke-sama
Aww...Beautiful!! Such a lovely poem,like it a lot!!

............after a long break, I think I will post in a poem instead.
Lately, I think I should motivate myself with writing motivational poems.
So I came up with this one.


It’s within you


The reason why so little is ever done,
is generally because so little is ever attempted.
Don't wait to overcome all possible objections,
otherwise nothing will ever be attempted.

Great things lie within the starting point,
its up to you to see an opportunity and to pursue it.
If you want those great things you better start by now,
your only true failure lies in the failure to start.

Taking a new step, uttering a new word,
is what people fear the most.
If you can take out the courage to begin,
you will have the courage to succeed.


...................
It’s not really good but i hope it really give out some sense of motivation.

Okay, till next time.
Have a nice weekend.

@ Anke- Thanks! I haven't had much time to write poems lately, so I'm glad you like it!

@ Jo- Thanks! And when I have the time and I'm in the mood I can write out poems very fast. But, I have to be in the right mood to do so. I don't know why, but I just have to be in a certain mood to write poetry. It's weird, but I don't mind. And I like your poem too! It really does give off that sense of motivation.

@Toyumi Well it was what i came up with on short notice before the power went out but I will try to add more to it. ^^

@Jo Awwwww gomenasai....=( i didn't mean to make you sad. If it helps I'm doing a lot better then i was two years ago. -hugs you- please don't be sad. Tifa-chan does not want any of her friends on here sad.

It's been some time... T_T
I really wanted to post my work here but mt schedule's against me.. D:
Now I got time and decided to stop by.. :3
Hope you people like this one.. :D



"Things about you"

It is not the looks,
It is not the style,
It is not the color, or even your eyes.
It is not the fashion,
It is not what they say,
It is something inside you that makes me wanna stay.

It is not the hours or seconds we had,
It is how you make me happy and sometimes, sad.
Sensitive or not, I don't care what they say,
If you can't I'll be the one to pray.

What made me stay?
It's you, for everyday.




Sounds like a song eh? Well, that's my mission, for people to have this "It's a song" type of reaction.. Hope I got it right.. :D





@Rii
>I think I remember you in chat some months back, when I had sore throat and you gave out some advice about drinking orange juice, remember? Hello and welcome Rii~ :3

@Jo
"Taking a new step, uttering a new word,
is what people fear the most.
If you can take out the courage to begin,
you will have the courage to succeed."



>I'll remember this stanza Jo, I love this. :3 I love your works. :D

@Toyumi
>"Soft Snow". I remembered a manga that I've read a while back, "Millennium Snow". Because of your poem, I remembered the events in there. :3

@Tifa
>WOW! Lots of poems! I'm having a poem-reading spree right now, all because of all those days of my absence here in the club.. D:

@Anke
>I love your poem "My Liefde"! The use of the Afrikaan words are splendid! I didn't knew that Afrikaan language can be romantic.. :3 ANd oh? You're a girl?? Funny since the first impression I got from you was that of guy! Ahahaha!

@Cash
>Hello there! I'm Carrot, and I see your poems.. I'd say they're good. :3

I need to do some catching up when I get the chance. I've been rather preoccupied over the past two or three weeks and haven't been following along. I should be able to read through all the new poems by tomorrow, as well as say hi to each new member specifically.

@Jo - Thanks for the compliment.

@ Analise - sure thing! I'll add you as soon as I get on my other computer ;) Welcome!!!

@ Carrot - No I'm a girl :D Haha it's ok, though I guess I'm kind of a tomboy... lol, and yes Afrikaans can be romantic... especially when my boy friend speaks it :"> haha... I like your poem too!!! It reminds me of me and my boy friend some... but everything reminds me of him now haha!

@ Rii- Welcome!!!

@ Carrot- Nice poem! It does sound like a lot like a song! And just a word of advice concerning mistaking genders... Do not assume genders on Gendou! At all! Ever! Because I think that a lot more people here are girls but it turns out they're guys and then everything becomes really weird...So don't end up like me and assume genders and then get confused... XD

Finally finally finally~
Over the holidays and the down days, I'm back.
At least for now.
I shall be gone soon since there would be a whole lot of studying to be done.
And so I shall leave one last piece of my work before I disappear.
Of course after a farewell, and kindly promise to come back as soon as possible?

The Festival of Night
When I walk down the street
The street was full of souls
They move around like a madman

I did my best to avoid them
But they block my way
'til the dawn came and took away my precious time

When the sun came down,
Everybody leave for The Festival of Night
Where it will be alive on midnight

Might come if you like,
if you like,
if you like

There's vampire on the right
Ghouls on your left side
The headless horseman riding his horse
is waiting for his bride

Hunchback in the 70's
Dying children giggled under the moonlight
Food was served
The living people are partying!

Music, lights, showcases
It's the party where the living and the dead
held together's arms
and dance 'til it was 3 am

The living clean and bid farewell
The dead rest back to their grave
The Festival of Night is forgotten once more


It's a short one, but I did my best to contribute something to this club!
I hope it satisfied your dining.
I'm very sorry I can't have a moment to read all your poems my dear friend,
But I shall have my time back once my school years are over.
With that, I shall return with more fun reading, rhythmical poems

Deary old friends, bid me good luck and pray for my battle with my exams! xD

Welcome to all new members too! Not to forget about that.
Rii-sama: Glad to have you here. I heard you write some, so post 'em up!
Don't be shy!

I guess there's no contest at the moment, or is there?
Hope ya'll took part! May the best be the winner..? Haha, it's the best advice I gave out to the youngsters. /cough.

I claimed someone that I can't remember because photobucket is ended.

@ Holkers- Nice poem! I really like it. Although it seems like a poem for Halloween, rofl. And you're right, there's no contest at the moment, but maybe... Nah, I made/was in charge the last contest, so I don't want to start up another one. And good luck with your exams!
