the poetry corner

[lucas marcone]

heres the place to unload your poetry and compliment others poetry. ill get things a movein.

people talk about me i don't care
thay speak of things that were never there
peope laught at me thay cant see
i live my life in quiet dignity
people look at me let them stare
its nothing new i must bear
people mock me, its no surprise
thay cant see the world through my eyes.
my heart beats my lungs breathe free
but alas i'm not even allowed to be me.

what you really care
is always for something gone...
one day perhaps
you'll get this feeling undone...

Rafael Mendonça Andrade.

[Lysander]

I like that, Valkyn. Reminds me of years long past...

I begin with 2 craptacular poems (no, I wasn't actually emo at the time I typed these):

Symphonic Temptation (written for an English class):

Symphony of temptation.
Seeking to withdraw.
Impossible to resist.
Unwillingness to succumb
To the wickedness
Of the lies.

Inside My Mind (another for English. Maybe this one will bring some minor darkess into one's life who may need a little kick in the wrong direction):

Pasture of desolation...
Corridor of shadows...
Halls of pain...
Victory in sight...
It's too late...
Darkness consumes all...

Now we wait for e_voyager.

I like 'Symphonic Temptation' especially. *succumbs to the emo-ness*

I don't know what this should be called. Probably something like 'Parasitic.' Yeah, that works.

White eyes spin in sockets red with blood
wandering tendrils
creeping forth to sieze you if they could
'cause only you can fill
this hunger that once was dormant, waking
shameless about which laws it's breaking
Unhinging monster's jaws to take you in
it begins

Stealing the life of others to make you strong
you know that it's wrong
but you can't help laughing as your conscience fades away
and you hear yourself say
"Come with me, for a better existence
follow me, it's not too long a distance
from what you are to what you need
It's what you drink, it's how you feed
once, I used to be like you
with one bite, my weak life was through
and so it is the same for you."

[Leafar]

TO be alive is power, 
Existence in itself, 
Without a further function, 
Omnipotence enough. 
   
To be alive and Will   
'T is able as a God! 
The Further of ourselves be what
Such being Finitude?
