Writing OBpoetry.com [PG]

[Tekkaman]

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen]In [b]OB Anthology[/b], I looked for a poetry string in order to post some of my own poetry. I was basically looking for a string where everyone could post their personal poetry and get replies from their poetry pieces via PM, IM or E-Mail. Sadly, the few poetry strings I did find were either closed by moderators or administrators - [i]the rest were discarded in the graveyard[/i]. So, in hopes of bringing back some poetry to OB, I decided to post [b]'OBpoetry.com'[/b] to see if there are others like me who would like to post their poetry on this site for others to see. Hopefully, this string will take flight and be a great place for Otaku members to post whenever they have poetic inspiration or past poetry pieces that they would like to share to others.[/color][/size][/font]

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen]In OBpoetry.com, people can come and post their poetry whenever they feel so. I would like for personal thoughts on someone elses poetry or poetry talk in general to be expressed via PM, IM or E-Mail please. [i]This action prevents unneccersary or accidental spamming, flaming or random discussions, however big or small[/i]. [/color][/size][/font]
[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen] [/color][/size][/font]
[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen]Also, as far as the rating is concerned: I had no idea if people were going to be posting poetry suggesting anything sexual so I placed 'PG' down. I also had to look at my own poetry that I had wrote - [i]being love poems[/i] - after reading the rules, considering that a 'PG' rating was the safest bet concerning this string. So, in saying that, I would appreciate it if everyone posting did not post any poems that break the 'PG barrier'. If you don't know what I mean by that, please read the [/color][/size][/font][url="http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=44313"][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen]rules[/color][/size][/font][/url][font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen] before posting. Thank you.[/color][/size][/font]
[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen] [/color][/size][/font]
[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen]Now that I got all of that taken care of, please enjoy yourselves here in OBpoetry.com.[/color][/size][/font]

I think he means that this thread is OBPoetry.com. Its a good idea, I'll be back and edit this post with a poem.

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue][B]Turn On The Light![/B]

Darkness
Consuimg me
Acting on my fears
Voices wringing in my ears
Visions dancing throught my head
Slowly my sanity is beginning to slip away
It can all end at the flip of a switch
But now is the time for rest
My mind begs to me
Turn on the light!
But I can't[/COLOR]

Acheron, oh Acheron
Named after the Rivers of Woe
Acheron, oh Acheron
Reading his posts make me moan

Acheron, oh Acheron
Stringent for rules, and cool
Acheron, oh Acheron
Posts so over-formatted it's cruel

Acheron, oh Acheron
I'm sure he had something to say
Acheron, oh Acheron
His over-formatting makes me go away[/font][/color][/size][/center]

Flying

I?m sailing through the sky
I can feel the soft air
Blowing across my face
Tousling my hair

Looking back I see
A soft and white
Broad set of wings
Amazingly, I can?t feel fright

I?m not afraid of anything
Nothing, nothing at all
Not afraid of the cold
Not afraid to fall

The stars in the sky greet me
Their smiles so kind and soft like feather
I can see them whispering
So quietly to one another

This is the sky
This is my home
I am flying
So free to roam

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen][b]Omnipotent[/b] [/color][/size][/font]

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen]Your love is omnipotent
- More addictive than sex -
I crave for more of your sentiment.

Love with unyeilding competence,
An everlasting effect.
Your love is omnipotent.

This drive I have now is so intimate,
A nourishment until I wreck.
I crave for more of your sentiment.

My love for you is infinite,
Though I may not suvive the hex.
Your love is omnipotent.

As I consume your remnant,
This blissfulness doublechecked;
I crave for more of your sentiment.

Become a bloodstream chemist
And begin to help me rest.
Your love is omnipotent;
I crave for more of your sentiment.[/color][/size][/font]

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen][b]God is in the Rain[/b][/color][/size][/font]

[font=Palatino Linotype][size=2][color=darkgreen]God is in the rain.
Tranquil drops of cool
Stockpiled within the same.

Serenity being contained,
Enveloped in liquid pools:
God is in the rain.

Phlegmatic frame,
Empowered by jewels;
Stockpiled within the same.

Do not believe disdain,
Perceiving this torrent as fool.
God is in the rain.

Authorize the ordain
To supersede your empowered rule;
Stockpiled within the same.

Deluge becomes the tool,
Differentiating your dual.
God is in the rain,
Stockpiled within the same.[/color][/size][/font]

Tomorrow's sun comes
A thousand little tears rind open
It can help you feel

If you want to feel
Close your eyes with mine slowly
I will save you dear

Come fly with me there
Our place amongst the nightmares
We can die as one

When the sun comes anew
They will all be very surprised
When we rise again

Like the phoenix bird
Fire shining radiantly
Let us fly as one.

[SIZE=1][B]"Peace" ~ August 13th, 2006[/B]

Coming undone, the
seams that bind
you together unwind
as curiousity strips
you defenseless.

"I want see you
more than anyone."
Lilting notes whisper
into your ear,
reassuring this is real.

That already excited
heart pounds louder
as you step forth.
Truth has announced
the intentions.

"Even if we took it
for granted, the time spent
was well worth it."
We'll keep these memories
and we'll go on with life.
Time cannot obey Love.

"Even if we left alone,
we were still so happy."
I'll keep you in my pocket,
it's where you'll always be safe.
It's for you to return home.

"I just want to hold you."
Warm feelings that we'll
never share again lay
adrift in that deep sea.
They're scattered
throughout the wreckage
that is my memory.

"I'll always love you."
Even if you cannot stay
here with me, hold my hand
and keep me warm.
Illusive are those thoughts
of bitterness, for I cannot
find myself being sad.

My Muse, My Friend, My Love
I've given you wings to fly,
so remember me when you
return home...[/SIZE]

[font=courier new]Ya know i've noticed that i never really posted anything in the anthology yet. I have my reasons for being reluctant in posting any stories, but i see no harm in sharing some poetry here and there. I don't often write poetry, at least not as often as i write fanfiction or stories...but when i get down to it things tend to come out rather easily. So w00t to Acheron for the great idea, hopefully it works out the way that is intended by this thread.

This one i wrote not so long ago...no title...but it has a purpose.[/font]



[center][size=1]Ahead is bright and dismal, clashing together.
It shines toward me with a haunting light.
The sights and sounds render me light as a feather.
As i fight to keep grounded with all of my might.

Drawn ahead by a mysterious mist,
I advance toward a single voice
Walking foward, trembling in my wrist
As if i were given no choice

Inside my head things are not right
Complimenting my atmosphere
I try to look back as if not to lose sight
Of the memories that i hold so dear

Suddenly skies, turn heavy and dark
My mind now writhes even more
This journey is not just a simple lark,
But a trial i do so deplore

I sit abandoned wishing someone would find me.
For i know not which way to progress.
In both directions, obscurity is what i see.
As i lie beside myself in distress.

In my state, i am enamored.
Though my jubilation turns bleak.
My pleas and cries are not heard.
Now my state of mind grows weak.

What was my beggining, will become my end.
The path we follow is the same.
When two worlds collide, and they begin to blend.
You are left with yourself to blame.

It happens uncontrolled, for you feel beyond your sense.
This atmosphere is all but assured.
For those who believe in an emotion so imense.
Allow their spirit to be loosely allured.

[SIZE=1][B]Phoenix ~ August 25, 2006[/B]

Soaring in that fiery bliss
Sultry, seductive sayings
of curiousity sink into
the ever-wondering mind.

Innocence clutches to
my hand, never letting go.
It's all too perfect,
that childish naivety.

Muse, my savior...
release the harsh grip of
Reality.
It's a cycle eternal, love.

The heart pulses quickly,
sensations tease the nerves.
"Infinity has nothing on us..."
although we've had our
grievances with time.

It's always a beautiful morning with you.
Unfortunately, that'll have to wait.
"Today is better than tomorrow."
However, today is over.
Sweet dreams, my love.

If ecstasy will have its way,
love reawakens when you do.[/SIZE]
