5 minute poetry - Page 74

Packman · 01-18-2005, 06:12 PM

This is wrote for a special woman. She knows who she is, and will understand this better than anyone else. Its also the first personal poetry I've ever shown publicly, I wrote it just for her.

My cheeks are flush my thoughts are gone.
This is what I've wanted all along.
Love is such a strong word; yet, you use it freely
God is love to me you see, dont ask me to blashpheme!
Since the start, I've played the part, that my sould doth deem me.
Yet to you I seem so true, with words from my heart bleeding.
Nothing more, yet nothing less, am I than what you dream me.
Still my soul, beyond control, demands that I persue.
An evil curse!! What makes it worse is that I can not love you.
And even fate can berate! My resistance to,
what I know in heart and soul, is meant to be love true.
My stupid mind against love kind would with logic fight for me.
Yet, its known that love has shown how it conquers all.
What am I to dare to try resistance to my God?
I still don't know which way to go, so I will follow God.
And if Love leads me to your arms, hold you tight I will!
But if another path he takes I will follow so, ever quiet still.

This is the rough draft without any editing. Its not perfect, but it best conveys the meaning I want to express. I doubt I'll ever post an edited version.

It means I should love you even though we cant. We do not determine our hearts, only what actions we take with the emotions we are given. I hope you see past impossibility, and realize like I have that anything is possible, especially if love is involved. I know current relationships are in the way. Yet, if you know its not true love, and you know I could be then make your decision accordingly. A good friend of mine was philosphizing with me today for the first time, he was very good at it. I came to a realization that this is my life and I determine the outcome, even if I cant see it. I would risk heartbreak again for the glory of love. Hopeless love is a foolish proposition though. I will not take that risk, without someone else whose willing to make the trip with me. Tell me as soon as you know. If you do not, or can not decide then at least tell me you've read this.

Hopes and dreams are dashed upon the rocky shore
upon the mad wind of emotion
conjured by two simple words
How do you hurt me without knowing
knowing that your words have broken me
a box of chocolates marked with your name
now sits useless upon its shelf
flowers bought for you wilt in their jar
and I am left with the shattered shards
of a love I lost before it was found
Perhaps someday
Perhaps later
But not today
Not in sight.
I cannot wait for you any longer
If destiny rules that we should be together
as I know that we should
Let it manipulate the strings of fate
For I cannot let my life slip away
waiting for you to turn to me and wisper
those three words that would heal me
and leave me broken
no longer.

Heartless, thoughtless
Going deeper, bottomless
This should never be.

Cut out my heart
Put on that mask
It is this time that I
Must become the executioner

No hope, no hope.
I have told you this before
I will make it cold
I will not let others pursue

I walk away and I look back
Frosted solid heart of mine
It twitches inside it's box
This decision, it hurts

Another thorn placed in my heart
I once again take it willingly
Cover the bleeding with my hands
Why doesn't my heart just die?

Grey eyes, grey eyes
How do they captivate, mystify?
For he who has not seen mine
Confusion and intrigue, combine

His thoughts, they disappear
Just what is going on here?
Windows to the soul, his eyes
Drop all the veils, his disguise

He is guided by logic
One thing in life tragic
One missing piece, a soulmate
Is this her�or should he wait?

Cloud Strife · 01-19-2005, 06:37 PM

Things that are true,
Thing that were tried,
Things that are loved,
Are behind changing eyes.

The truth of a wish,
The truth of their fate,
The truth of their life,
The truth? A soulmate.

The trials of a life,
The times in the dark,
The times in the light,
For them, heavens part.

The love of their life,
They're made for each other,
The love of their life...
No longer friends, but lovers.

grasping thorns
instead of roses
knowing well
the consequences

pain is hard
to live without
and harder still
to never know

I may have loved
I may have lied
its all a fraud
if no one cares

this finger bleeds
I feel alive
the tears are warm
they soothe

a deeper pain
is losing love
than any other
I recall

so one last time
I've lost the petals
the thorns are all I have
the crimson is my blood

BlackMageGirl! · 01-20-2005, 10:49 AM

Capture it
Tether it
Care for it
Bear with it

Sweet and soft
All these feelings have left me dry

Enter it
Ensnare it
Compare to it
Aware of it

My cheeks, so warm
You take the tears as I cry

Surround it
Compound it
Turn around it
Expound it

From you I cannot hide
You see me, you stay by my side

How is it possible?
How can this be?
You who surpass my defenses
Oh so easily?

Who are you?
What are you?
Why are you, saying this to me?

Cry for it
Lie for it
Sigh for it
Vie for it

This young girls plea
As she wistfully
whispers these words
....love me?

Edwardo Magnifico · 01-20-2005, 01:06 PM

Heres mine
I sit
I sit upon this hill and watch,
I see a being,
He's nice, kind and caring,
He treats the land with respect,
I think I'll call him...Human.
20,000 years later,
I'm still sitting,
I see a new being,
But it's angry and agressive,
It pollutes and destroys,
I think I'll call it...Monster.

Cloud Strife · 01-20-2005, 01:19 PM

Okay, this is a first time thing for me. I got all inspired last night, and I wrote lyrics to a song. If it seems familiar to ya, it's probably because you saw the first half of it in BMG!'s sig.

And without further ado:

"What we're lookin' for"

As the years, pass, by,
We all wonder why,
We did the things we did so foolishly...

As our know-ledge, grows,
We find that we know
so little of the things we really need...

But we must keep in mind,
The things we do will bind
all of us, closer than before...

And through life we run,
Lookin' for what will come,
And we start to see, more and mooore...

Of what we're lookin' for.

(beat quickens)

Tryin' our best to dive right in it,
Pushin' ourselves up to the limit,
Searchin' around for that one true thing...

Putting ourselves right at the ledge,
Takin' a look over the edge,
That leap of faith, it will always briiing...

(beat slows again)

And then we close, our, eyes,
And spread our wings to fly,
For we've finally realized,
Just what we're look...ing...for...
