So yeah, I'm into writing poetry as nerdy as that may be and I've posted some of my politically charged works already, but I thought I'd put up some of my other stuff see what people think, what can be improved etc so yeah, go easy on me comrades :laugh:
Bedroom Floor
The light twinkles in the dew,
Birds whistle at the sight of you,
Glory glistens with every yawn,
An artist’s palette with you drawn,
The trees sprout with ever growing glory,
Life spins its wild story,
But with you it is clear to me,
Things will be fine, for you see,
In your arms I feel secure,
Lying here on the bedroom floor.
Its as simple as that...
The nerdy loves, the secret wishes,
The way I joke, you should do the dishes,
The madness that is, how we came to be,
Its as simple as you and me
I want to hold you, and hug you tight,
Say you’ll be mine, even for just a night,
Give me a chance, to love to lead you,
Its as simple as this, you see it don’t you?
I speak in rhymes, in lyrical words,
You speak with a voice, glory of the birds,
You soar through my dreams, I can’t escape,
Its a simple as boba fetts cape
So when you think I’m being mean,
And your wondering, Is he really keen?
I’m yours if you want me,
Its as simple as that.
Life of doubt.
Time has masked these things I see,
In glory there is no place for me,
I walk alone the old path,
My life a blip on a graph,
Why does fortune not favour those,
Whom simple pleasures are oft chose,
Can life truly be it all,
Or are we simply doomed to fall,
Among the crowd, the human throng,
Am i right, or oh so wrong,
I pray that soon i shall find,
Someone to ease my mind,
The doubts that lay within,
The life thats not free of sin,
Return to me your ideas,
Quench my soul of its fears.
Growing Pains
Dark thoughts at the witching hour,
Fear controls, has the power,
Reason does not show me,
A way to live, to be free
The call beckons in the dead of night,
But you have to ask, is it right?
For me to feel the way I feel,
When others pain is so real,
Should I wallow in despair?
Or take the time to listen and care,
Is my calling on this earth,
In the mud, in the turf,
Should I leave and start anew,
Or stay here and fight with you,
The only question that remains,
Is it really just growing pains?
Inside
Inconsequential, that’s what they call me,
I don’t really matter from what I can see,
Once I may be told of the power I hold,
But not once have my words been gold,
Meaning is what we all crave,
Before we sink into our graves,
Though how I can live,
When I’m not sure, what I can give,
I don’t really posses a skill,
I could not give girls a thrill,
The incredible truth it seems,
That to be happy we must be full of dreams,
But when nightmares stalk your mind,
Dreams can be hard to find,
I look for answers high and low,
But none I find, however far I go,
So while I smile for you,
Inside I’m blue.
Gone
Tick Tock, time runs on
Tick Tock, i’ve waited too long
Tick Tock, to prove my worth
Tick Tock, upon this earth
Cling Clang, the bells are sounding
Cling Clang, the drums are pounding
Cling Clang, why can’t I hear
Cling Clang, what is calling, is it fear
Boom Pow, its drawing near
Boom Pow, but do not shed a tear
Boom Pow, maybe i’ll smile
Boom Pow, as i leave you for a little while
Dun Dun, the dark men walk
Dun Dun, the shadows stalk
Dun Dun, I’m placed on the shelf
Dun Dun, where i’m going there’s , no need for wealth
Sniffle Sniffle, please don’t cry
Sniffle Sniffle, we said goodbye
Sniffle Sniffle, don’t despair
Sniffle Sniffle, just because i’m gone, doesn’t mean i don’t care
Athair imithe
Airím uaim thú (I miss you), and yes i’m feeling blue
Mé á scríobh seo i do theanga (I write this in your tongue), though why you didn’t talk in it I wonder
Shíl mé ach le déanaí faoi tú (Just recently I’ve thought about you), and realised I need you
tá tú imithe ar feadh i bhfad ró-fhada (you’ve been gone for far too long), I just want my father
cén fáth a tógadh tú uaim (why were you taken from me), am I to blame?
Tá mé na focail seo a chur le chéile (I’ve put these words together), just to tell
an poll is dóigh liom (the hole i feel), now that you are gone
You and Me
Your hands brush on my skin,
Never fails to produce a grin,
Those fleeting moments where our eyes meet,
The sickening comments of oh so sweet,
Yet it is not for us to decide,
Whether to bloom in love or to hide,
The glory that is us,
Beneath the eventual fuss,
Deception we are no strangers too,
But I ask do you have a clue,
That when I feel the light from your smile,
I feel safe, just for a while,
It’s not a normal relationship you see,
It’s really just you and me.
