Poets.

Well, I just wanted to know who else is a poet here.

This is my most recent piece:

In me, you represent the paradox of a Utopia: A perfect place that seemingly does not exist In the innermost me, you created a space That was never there before… A space created for the capacity Of enamored love.

You know, I saw you today As I do everyday cradled in that space you created. You were crowded there as the space grew smaller By way of malignant growths; Growths in the form of lack of humility. Shyness. Naivete. Of fear. And amongst those you resided As a beacon of hope A ray of sentimental sunshine as it pierces My bare and impenetrable chest Illuminating the true corners of my heart. My fifth chamber. It is an echo of the image of U, Still you nonetheless. The true and clandestine windows of my soul Peered into you. And I saw something. I saw by way of mine eyes that which could not be seen; That which cannot be defined, nor verbalized. I saw love; I saw attraction. In you. With you. In love with you. Like the face of God, this was something invisible ever before to me… Until I allowed you to open my eyes. You became so much a part of me, The keeper of the fifth chamber And you created my life. Defined my spirit. You came to me And you entered into that spirit, And my intangible mind By way of the windows of my soul. My eyes were meant for you, Predisposed as the access to the innermost me As the doorway to the fifth chamber Created in the path of undaunted beauty And gentle love. My eyes were placed in the path of U. And for this I say these words: Love me. Feel me. Complete me

Well.. let's see how much flame I'm going to get..

wow, very nice Swift. I write poems, but not posting them up if you want to hear any of my wrk email me and ill share them that way ^.^

the reason for not posting them they are very dark, and personal

i write poems from time to time but they're like funny-ones, not about feelings or smth but they're in dutch, so no need to post them i guess (except for them few dutch-people overhere)

hehe, yeah! I know a bit of dutch. I suck though haha.

I write all kinda of poetry!! But thanks for the positive comments!

To be perfectly honest, that poem is shit. All you did was breakup some sentences, giving it absolutely no poetic value nor the feel of a poem, at least in my opinion …. but anyways,

I don't write poetry nor am I a very big fan of it, but my favorite poem has to be William Carlos Williams's famous "The Red Wheelbarrow"

so much depends upon

a red wheel barrow

Now thats, stupid!

Wsoprulz, you're way too harsh, lol. I've only wrote one poen recently, because i got told to write one about domestic violence, and it's called Till Death Do Us Part. It's pretty crap, but i may aswell post it :)

I lie awake at midnight, Fearing the next day, The monster sleeps beside me, I wish it would all go away.

The morning creeps in slowly, It brings along my fears, Because I know the man I once loved, Will soon reduce me to tears.

Today I got more bruses, All over I'm black and blue, Hating the animal that lives with me, I don't know what to do.

I think about it more and more, And know theres only one way out, Only one way to escape, Away from the scream and shout.

It wasn't just my bones he had broken, he had also broken my heart, I took my life when i realized, Till Death Do Us Part.

Told you it was pretty crap, lol :) I hadn't finished it on time when i had to do it, and i got chosen to read it out, so i ended up making up the last few lines on the spot, and had to write them down after :P

Anyway, nice poen SwiftNomad :) Any more for anymore ?
