I just thought I'd make a topic to show some "poems" I wrote. Actually, they're not really poems. More like song lyrics or something but since there's no melody that goes with it, I just call it poetry.

My post will be divided into 4 categories since these poems were all written at different times and therefore, express different feelings.

I put them in my journal, so that it takes less space here

- 1rst category - "Away" period (2005)

- 2nd category - "Revolted" and "Hopeful" periods (2006)

- 3rd category - "Love Poems" period (early 2007)

- 4th category - "Nostalgic" period (summer of 2007)

Those are beautiful. <333
For some reason I imagine a band like Evanescence singing them, especially the ones on the first section.
My favorite are Dark Veil, Braking Away, and Deserted Realms.

Since you broke it down so nicely for us I thought I'd follow suit. :]

1st Category
I'm going to quote you from Dark Veil with only praise.
"A thousand words die on my lips"
I loved this line. Such a powerful start to a very lyrical poem.
Actually, all three poems are dying to be put to music, or at least I think they'd work perfectly as songs.

I'll post this now and read the others.

Oh my gosh.
I think I was a little ambitious to think I could read all of your poems in one sitting.
There are quite a few... xD
It would be a shame, and an insult, to just skim them so I'll get back to you later. Heh.

That reminds me of Jack Off Jill,

"Your mouth is like a funeral,
where words go to die."

A few things.
Mischievous Paradise had two lines that really stuck out for me.
"How could a paradise be a new wall?"
"In a valley fed by the moonlight."
The first is such a paradox; just reading the line makes me smile.
The second is powerful imagery. Fed... the perfect way to describe it, I can really see a valley being filled with moonlight.

I read Paths before I read the paragraph above it and when you said it was mainly religous I agreed, but it wasn't the only topic I had on my mind when I read the poem. This poem could be interpreted in so many ways and that's what I love about it.

Ok ok, I just read all of your poetry that you had posted 4laugh

I have to admit that I am impressed! That's some wonderful stuff you have there! The way the lines moved made them very easy to connect with, left impressions in my mind after I had read them.

And I can't quite say that I could pick a favorite smile That good.

Besides a few grammatical errors, lol. Just great.

@ Origami Wings: Thank you for your comments! I liked the way you quoted the parts you liked. It's great to see what you liked the most.

@ Zombii: I don't know Jack Off Jill at all, but it's true that they look a bit alike.

@ Faith: Thanks! I must admit I'm not really surprised about the grammatical errors xd But do you think you could tell me some, so that I can correct them?

Yes, I could do that, no problem!

Although it would have to be a little at a time seeing as I can't stay on the computer for more than little bits at a time 4laugh When I have the opportunity I will!

Oh, and thank you for the comment on my poetry 3nodding I appreciate it!
