| Post subject: | Two poems. Do enjoi, if ye can help it. |
These are a couple of poems I wrote for a class a while ago. The first one was pretty much just 'write a poem' (we had to include as many different poetic forms as we could, AKA rhymes, slants, alliteration, etc.), and the second one was a sonnet in iambic pentameter. Both wound up just about whatever came to mind. Don't expect me to reply to anything you say, though. I'm just back here for a minute, and then it's back off to my dreams. Crying Myself to Sleep I try so hard Not to cry myself to sleep I can’t help but keep This secret to myself I’m so sad So sorry So sick of my fears Of my tears Of my thrice-blasted ears That hear every word Everything everyone says All the right All the wrong So I swear that I’ll try Once more, not to cry Myself to sleep Just a Dream I look into your eyes and all I see Is life and love and good and everything So long, I’ve tried, to find a way to be Exactly what you want; to cry and sing! But, even though I’ll never be that one I’ll still continue on and to the end I’ll go on loving you ‘til days are done And when, to me, the Death has come to tend When ended has my time forevermore Then, even dead, I’ll find a way to care For loving you could never be a chore But until then my love for you I’ll bear I do not mind; it doesn’t hinder much It is enough to dream just for your touch Quoth the one called Ethiclese (that's me!) Ta! |

I love them, they are really expressive, especially the first one, even though its sad. |

Just a touch of angst, but they're good enough to ignore that bit. I like them, you should do more, you're good at it. *thumbs up* |

Neither of them were written with any particular thing in mind. The first one I think is really angsty, but so not in a way that... angsts... but in a way that says it's done with that. Despite all the crap, says the speaker, I'm not goign to be that angsty any more. The second one's not really supposed to be angsty at all. It's a love note, though perhaps one to someone that doesn't love the speaker back. I wrote them for a class. The requirements for the first on were to use as many poetic forms as we could in one poem. The second one is just supposed to be a sonnet (iambic pentameter, ABABCDCDEE). |
