    Poets Here? Show your stuff

    I recently got into poetry a bit. We are working on an assignment for drama and I have decided I really like writing poetry. I think of it as a good way to get whats bothering you off your chest without sounding whiney.

    Heres my latest that dicusses the main stereotypes we hear of at school that I call Who am I? What inspired me to write this was all the stereotypes I have heard and all the groups people are classified into.
    Leave your feedback and post your own work with a little inspiration about it.
    Who am I?

    Skinny or Fat

    White or Black

    What does that matter, any more than how I act?

    He must be this, He must be that

    I only say this because of how he acts

    Is he emo or maybe prep? Maybe hes neither, maybe just ghetto

    Must not be emo, he aint depressed

    Is he over Dressed?

    Oh that could only be

    He's a prep

    Wait that’s not Ralph Lauren I see


    So that leaves ghetto, ya that must be me

    But wait why can’t I just be me?

    I’m me nothing else


    Can’t you see?

    ]I don’t like being classified as neither one of these
    That just leaves me

    Ya that’s right

    I’m only me!!!!

    Nice Jake! I like your poem!


    I wrote this one a while ago:

    Souls Entwined

    I love you so much,
    my soul hoplessly entwined with yours
    my heart in your hand
    my life for you.

    I hate you so much,
    my dreams tormented by your actions
    my heart burned and scarred
    my life destroyed.

    Please forgive me,
    my tresspasses, Ive wronged you time again
    I deserve all the pain
    my life empty without you.

    I love you,
    could never say goodbye
    could never leave your side
    my nightmare
    my heaven
    my life

    Very nice. I already have been thinking about writing another one about one of my ex girlfriends who I really cared about and how she got onto ice and killed the baby. I just need to be in the mood to write.

    i have a feeling no one here would be very impressed by my poetry. it's a little... goofy. i used to write serious poetry, but not so much anymore.

    Re: Poets Here? Show your stuff

    I wrote poetry ages ago. Most of it was dumb, but there were a few I was proud of. No idea where they all are right now, as we've moved so many times. This one though, is the only one I ever memorized and is probably my favorite as well...so I can share it.


    It doesn't have a title.

    ~*~

    Concentrated masses of power ahead,
    Underneath them a feeling of fear and of dread.
    Masters of all the sky and the weather,
    Under no bound of harness or tether.
    Lo! And behold the mightiest thunder!
    Over the ground they pillage and plunder.
    Never relenting to sun or to moon,
    Incasing the world in their silver cacoon.
    Moving ahead over the earth and the sea,
    Billowing up into that which they be,
    Unleashing the power held deep inside
    Sending forth torrents...and no one can hide.

    ~*~

    She was pregnant?
