Writing ~The Oddity~, Phantom's wooly Poem Thread.

[Phantom]

Its best to start off a poem tread with the name of the first poem. If it isn?t, it is now by my declaration.

My flagship poem is to be named:

[b]The Oddity[/b]

I want more from life than I am currently given.
Don?t you?

As if talking to myself, the voice in the rear of my mind,
My own killer, he lurks back there, undetained, always alert.

I seem to be lacking in life, I want to try harder.
Don?t you?

He nags at me, as if trying to escape my being, he tugs and howls,
My death?s hand, my advocate of pain, he creeps inside me, browned.

Take take take, I want to give, and I want to give my all.
Don?t you?

You know who you are; you lurk inside my existence like a roach,
I can cut your head off but you never die, until now,

I know what you are, I?m sure of it?
Don?t you?

[Epitome]

Thats really good. Sounds kind of like a Linkin Park song if it was sung. I like it.

Ty, this one (trying to do one per day.) is about pure impulse. Youl see.

[center][b]Love and Impulse.[/b]

[size=1]Do you often wonder if your love is real?
Did you know there is a test to find out?

I wonder why this test exists,
If love is real, no test could tell.

To myself I vigorously wonder,
Why is there a contrary?

Because love in its self is not real.
Whoa? Really? Why do you say such?

Love cannot be comprehended with words,
The fact that love is a word itself?lies.

I try to glimpse at what my inner self is stating.
So, if it is indescribable, and there are no words,

What is this that I feel so strongly for?[/size][/center]

YET another one...this one is dedicate to Kamila Toma...lol Kamila Tom! A friend of mine that I met from going to some computer class with her dad! *grins* this one is for you..:box:

[b]Orchid,[/b]

Some flowers bloom to the season; some wait their entire lives,
I know nothing of an orchid but I surely wish I did.

For if I was to think of an orchid, this is the flower its name brings to me,
A flower of beauty, delicacy, and ire, I am sure it?s colors are in tuned for awe.

An orchid to me, would be a flower that could fly, carry itself into the sun,
An orchid to me, would be a flower of treasuring, something to never let go of,

Some flowers never bloom at all, but orchids would be ever bloomed.
At least in my imagination, the reasoning of an orchid, would be for life,

For if I was to think of an orchid, this time it is like a tree,
Growing very strongly now, growing to bring happiness and piece to friendship.

An orchid to me, would be a flower that shows my pride, my love and my will,
An orchid to you?.What might it be?

[b]Falling[/b]

And I want to love me, to give me all the bliss and passion,
And in the life of loneliness, I want you to fall in love with me,

I know I am not the best at all, nor am I a prize of any sorts,
I am just that guy who lives alone and cries, begging for a life to share.

You know who you are, I know who I am, but inside it scares me,
To know you are so unsure, to wonder why you even care about me,

I dont know, that is why I am trapped, but I have fallen,
Fallen so deeply for you that nothing can pull me apart,

Ive fallen.

[b]Enigma of Whatever falls[/b]

Waking up to a rather vibrant scene.
Too bad I?m an early riser,

It would have been better if she had woke first,
That way I would not feel the suffering of knowing it will end.

I don?t care, at least I could hear breathes, soft little ones.
The kind anyone would want to wake to.

I wonder if I snore, I don?t care, It?s not my problem.
Its not hers either?

I want to sigh and give up but when so close?.
I have to stop and wonder how close I really am?

It?s enigmatic to realize this but, I am probably further?.
Further than I would ever imagine?

Or closer,
Closer than my most vivid dreams?

But in the end, I still fall?
It cannot be helped.

[size=1][font=century gothic][color=gray] Well, I'm not going to say this again, and I hope I do not have to: Double posting is not allowed.

I know what it's like Phantom. There's a way around it, though. Simply copy an entire post--the last post you did--then delete it. Then start a new post, and post it all over again. It'll bump up the thread for you, as well as get over double posting.

Now, I am really sorry, but I accidently deleted one of the poems. Perhaps you have it saved? I'm really sorry about that. Bleh. -.-

It's nice to see you back and doing poetry again.[/size][/font][/color]

Hey that is garbage! I think there should be a specific rule on poeotry threads. If you have decided to put some god damned effort into doing it...

there is now a moderator here, and there arent aLLL too many people with a thread for poetry...it wouldnt take much to just check it once a week and make sure that the poems are/if doubled up... at least at the next day? you see?

I am trying to write a poem per day.


thus to prevent spam, i do not double post unless it is on the next day. If i so decide to make two poems one day i would just simply edit my post and add another one to it if no one had replied.

for people seriously wanting to be consistent without spamming, there HAS to be a way to double post fairly.

This is a rather different case and I can accept that doulbe posting can be abused here, but if you make sure that only double posts will be allowed in a person's poem thread but the person who made the thread as long as the second acting post is on the next day...

its not hard to check and im askin here now if you think it is a good idea.. Cuz what just happened is bullcrap.

I dont want to make a new thread every day... that is just unorganazed..

Oh well, tell me what you think of this idea and ile take it directly to the suggestions forum.
