[cains]

for any budding poets out there why dont we make this ongoing ,any inspirational poetry feel free to share.lonliness,happiness,new bf/gf or just thoughts on life ingeneral would be happy to hear poems about them.

Welcome to Rupees poetry corner,
come in and rest a while
rest ur tired feet and tired minds
bide with us for a spell
and share with us any tales that u can tell

Not for me


Not for me the hearth and home
not for me the wife and child waiting at the door
not for me the gentle carress of a woman hands
only for me this rough and turbulent road of life
For on this path of life i must walk
and I must walk it
ALONE

giving up on romance,giving up on love
can never have the girl i am dreaming of.


from present to the past
i can remember names of prospective loves
and names of girls i used to dream of.
laura,carrie,michelle, claire ,rebekah and louise
faces have faded in to obscurity with time
but still the quick beating of my heart
and the pang of loss when we finally had to part remains

giving up on romance,giving up on love
can never have the girl i am dreaming of


For some the glint of passion in a lovers eyes
for some the thrilling touch
for some the passionate kiss
and tender embrace
but sadly ,not for I
alone i live and
alone i will die

giving up on romance, giving up on love
can never have the girl i am dreaming of

[_DTB_]

If that last poem is a personal one that could soon become untrue. Throwing words about like that could sweep any girl off her feet, just need to find the words to best suit her.

Good use of metaphores and the line lengths fit unconventionally well...I'm not poet myself, nither do I read poetry in general. I prefere to read through song lyrics, but I appreciate poetry.

Good job, and sorry I have nothing to post of my own :p

as i was passing
----------------

As i was passing on my way,
thought i would drop in these few words to say
Are you real or just a dream ,a mirage from a tortured brain
And if i wake will i ever see ur like again

Shame u live so far away
or i would be round to see u every day.
people would say that for me u are too young
but imagine the song to u i could have sung

so heres to you
my flame haired beauty queen
without a doubt the prettiest ,most wonderous
woman i have ever seen

From me to me
---------------
remember never fall in love
never give your heart
no one can hurt you if
you keep ur feelings deep inside
if you love someone never say
cause they will eventually break ur heart

There is always someone else
better good loooking ,smarter and sexier than u
the object of ur desire will say,
"Aww and u are so sweet"
and then will look the other way
you will reach for thier hand
and it will be being held by another
you will move in for a hug
and they will be hugging someone
better looking,smarter and sexier than you

love is just a dream
being deamt by someone else
finding true love is
like trying to catch the mist
impossible and pointless
as ur hearts desire
is dreaming of someone
better looking,smarter and sexier than you

never fall in love
never give ur heart as
it will ultimately be broken
and the object of ur desire
will walk away
with someone better looking ,smarter and sexier than you

Love is a song written by a fool
and sung by an idiot (W,Shakespear)

[cains]

love and hate.....
-------------
love and hate ,life and death
all walk hand in hand
for take away one and the others cant stand alone
for every dawning of a day
aniother day is dying
for every laugh and every smile
there is atear and someone crying
for every birth there is a death
for where there is a beginning
there must also be an end

[cains]

since no one
-------------------
since no one stops by any more
and noone brings poems to my door
i can write how i truely feel
as no one seems to stop here any more

i have all these amazing friends for who i am truely greatful
but no one seems to want to talk
all my friends are off line or busy
only I have nothing better to do
so here i sit and type and wait
for someone to appear at
my poetry gate.

I thought i have a great plan
i ll bring many SS poets here
but only one who seems to write is me
so i have tried and i have failed
so i will leave this once so barren board
to die again
as no one seems to come here any more


if anyone should happen to chance
upon this barren land
read its epitaph and understand
"i am dying here ,cause no one seems to want
to come here any more

So hey cains...you seem to be a pretty prolific poet, LOL. :D It's great to me to see people express themselves creatively,...and especially good to see someone willing to post poems that seem both so thoughtful and so personal. That isn't an easy thing for a lot of people. Unfortunately, I can't join you by posting a poem, because after trying my hand at it for a time and being so terribly bad at it, I long ago came to essentially the same sorts of conclusions regarding it that you seem to have come to regarding love, LOL. But here's a musing instead, the best I can do now. Once I wrote a love song for the girl of my dreams at the time, and she loved it..(course, what're you going to tell someone who writes you a love song, right? It DID at least have a nice tune if I do say so, LOL.) But something I realized...I tried so hard to make it right...but it came from the head, not the heart, like all my poetry always did...that's what made it terrible.
I don't know Rupert...I think love, like poetry, comes in through the cracks...you can't find it if you're looking. The tricky part is to reach a point where you can stop looking without closing yourself off to possibility...because once you close off, build the wall so high and strong that nothing gets in or out, then all your poetry drys up. Really, you want to be a romantic, consider this. It's an old cliche, but Love really is everywhere, and anyone can find it, but very few actually do I think...because it's something you give, something you feel, not something you receive...that's what makes it love, it's unselfish and unconditional, LOL. And thought about in that way, Oz got it backwards...the true measure of anyone's heart HAS to lie in the love they're capable of feeling, not in that which they receive...look around, learn how to really love the world, and yourself, in spite of EVERYTHING, and your fountain will never run dry...that's the way it works.

Anyway, those are just a few thoughts reading your poems inspired in me. Regarding your last one, I'd just say I think it's a little too soon to give up on your idea. A LOT of people don't feel that comfortable trying to create, and a lot more don't feel comfortable sharing what they do try with others. I know it can feel like posting in a vacuum, but MAN, you should see how many reviews I posted on the movie board when virtually NOONE else was using it. Eventually, people started coming in...and even though a huge majority of them probably consider ME to be the biggest bore who ever lived, they still started making their own sorts of threads...it's contagious, I think, LOL. And in your case, I think your poetry will inspire some other folks to take a shot after awhile too. I hope you decide to keep plugging for awhile at least, bet you'll find it's worth the effort in the end. :D

To Andrea.
The hero of my story

A disney song sayS
"The Hero of the story is worth their weight in gold
but the hero of the story never knows they are"
you my sweetest Andrea were the hero
of my story and were worth ur weight in gold but you never knew.

My pain runs so deep
why did u have to go
why did u have to leave
my story so soon

i loved you more than i loved myself
but why ,oh why
did you have to leave
my story so soon.

The hero of the story
is supposed to stay
supposed to kill the dragons
but not suposed to leave
but why oh why
did you have to leave
my story so soon

i want u back
i need you back
but it cant be
as the hero of my story
has gone away
and wont be back
to recue me
from the dragons once more

The hero is supposed to stay
but why oh why,
did you leave leave
my story so soon.

the hero of my tale has left
and rode away
and unlike a fairy tale
you have rode off alone


no golden sunsets for u to see
no more starry nights for to
wonder at
no more new horzions for u to explore
no more new frontiers to fin.
you have left my story
and left me behind:confused: :(


dedicated to christy ,may you wish upon a star and may all ur dreams come true
