Okay, so last night I had this massive headache... which isn't uncommon for me... Because of said headache, I was able to write this poem... It's kinda weird, for some reason, I can't write outstanding poetry unless I'm either A. Extremely tired or B. I'm suffering from a major headache. Speaking of which, I'm getting one right now... eek
But anyway, I was at The Boyfriend's house yesterday when I got said headache. And needless to say, I was kinda peeved at The Boyfriend when I wrote this. What? He was playing a video game instead of paying attention to me! I'm only slightly greedy and needy of his attention!!!
But anyway... Here's the poem! Unlike most my poetry, I couldn't exactly pinpoint a specific... is topic the word I'm looking for? I couldn't pinpoint a theme I suppose. It bounced around at least three times... At first it was purely metaphoric, then it got darker, talking about shadows and such, and then I ended it with references to The Boyfriend. XD Anyway, I've never written a poem so random before... Which is why I had so much trouble naming it... And I still might change the name... But anyway, let me know what you think!!!

Darkening Thoughts
Impure black roses
Simply dust in the wind
Tainted upon me
Haunted within
Words reach my ears
Yet no lights reach my eyes
Wind caressing skin
Soft gentle lies
Rose petals scattered
Underneath my feet
Warmth fills my soul
And I welcome the heat
Darkness all around
Yet a light still inside
The silent still angels
In them I confide
And why do the shadows
Still haunt my heart?
Viciously trying
To tear me apart
They lurk within meadows
And this flowery field
Trying to torment
What I thought had been healed
Let the waves keep crashing
‘Til it wears down the rocks
Let them all keep trying
To break down the locks
I’ll smile and wait
For a new day to come
You cannot drive feeling
Into what is numb
The days growing old
Nights go by so quick
And life in itself
Is diseased and sick
I still believe in hope
The sun is shining somewhere
And I think you’re the one
Who can take me there
So together we’ll travel
Hand within hand
And slowly walk across
This old deserted land
Searching so long
Life must come to an end
If given the chance
I’ll do it again
Beneath the rain clouds
I heave a great sigh
Such feelings of happiness
I begin to cry
And yes it is true
Life indeed is tough
Yet somehow loving you
Makes it simple enough

Very interesting. And yeah, I have to be in certain moods to write even the least of decent poetry haha.

But I really like your rhyming, very nice.
