    Thanks Roog, I appreciate it... though try not to triple post '

    I really love your poem 'The Things I Miss', I love the feel of it, the rythm, and the subject. It's really well written Roog.


    The Hourglass I just wrote this one in about 20 mins, yay for the inspiration of 1am!

    These days time seeps slowly by
    Can't help but wonder the reason why
    Those days are gone,
    Our days are gone
    And time still slowly passing, dies

    It seems just yesterday we met
    Were we so filled with false regret
    We couldn't see,
    We'd never see
    That we weren't meant to be, not yet

    I'd sit and I would think of you
    Unknowing of what I should do
    With you so far,
    Away so far
    A distant place never, I knew

    And although we'll be apart still
    I like to sometimes think we will
    Makes things work out,
    We can make out
    Or at least pretend our hearts, we'd fill

    But acting in this empty street
    In always unrelenting heat
    Just makes the pain,
    It seals the pain
    'Till our hearts no longer whole, do beat

    So we'll leave with our empty hands
    And travel to our seperate lands
    A day away,
    A life away
    Shores with distant, golden sands

    Then as I sit here with my mind
    I pray that we will always find
    Someone to love,
    Our one true love
    Who'll take away the sands of time
    That which you manifest is before you.

    Gah, you guys are so good at poetry. If there was ever to be a competition between each other's poems, I swear I'll lose. xD My poetry skills are appalling.

    Never-the-less, awesome stuff everyone. =) I enjoyed reading some of those. ^^

    Thanks so much Twilight it's much appreciated, I'm glad you liked it. ^^

    And thanks KS, sometimes with poetry it can be hard, I find that unless I have the right inspiration my poems are simple crap!

    I like that poem, Azerane...even the title is cool...

    "Waiting to Sleep"

    Sitting at the bedside
    Of myself in a past life
    Living a lie for the last time
    Time to heat a heart that's been cold from the start
    Night to night no day in sight
    The stars are bright but there's no moon tonight
    Surviving is a work of art
    Staying alive while remaining hard
    But maybe I'll see the light
    Some day
    When the blood doesn't run a river a many miles long
    Filled with the songs of a many people gone
    Filled with the screams of a many mother's lungs
    Filled with the sounds of guns and the sounds of a hundred thousand sons
    Oh God
    As we bathe in the blood of our brothers, fathers, sisters and mothers
    Acting like today maybe it'll all go away until we forget it anyway
    Because that's our society
    The streets are painted red, up to the trees the weeds are even dead
    The only way to the light is to fight because down each alley is another sad story
    Where an eye for an eye can soon lead to homocide quicker than you can scream "Where am I?"
    Where there's no time to cry and ask God why
    Becase the only time you get to rest is when you dead
    Silly dreams in your head of a life without death
    And peace to those who now rest
    Covered in blood it's time to head home with a bullet through your chest
    And when you arrive and it's time to return all you've done in life
    Tell God that in hell there are still those of us who look to the sky
    and ask for mercy and freedom from the thoughts that haunt our minds
    Sitting at the bedside
    Of myself in a past life
    Waiting to finally sleep
    A rest in peace

    "Your Worst Enemy"

    I hear the steady clicking of clocks
    Tick tocks heard from block to blocks
    Watch your back cuz the hit is on
    In a second you can be good as gone
    Gone in the wind, rewind till ya see the sign
    No time, until ya hear the rhyme, oh my
    20 thousand bullets in your back this time
    It's whack how they react to an act
    Done in perchance only one instance in history
    Misery can deal out much more than you or me
    So don'y screw with me because I know your ancestry
    One call can make your family half of what it used to be
    Are you getting used to me, or am I still outside your realm of reality
    Ready to strike in spite taking your life one day at a time
    I'm deeper than crime, not seen by eyes, the most despised
    Until the day comes and the loud thunder thunderous sound of drums
    Comes from the skies above signaling the end of my reign of slums
    Breaking what you thought you made, taking what you thought was saved
    Every day making lies come to reality, making nature succumbed to my abnormality
    You can't escape, you can only run through a land raped, innate of a ghetto landscape
    Entranced by the chance to land one bullet through your head at the thought of ending up dead instead
    Bred to bleed for devious deeds done dirty in the deepest story
    Not boring, but too gory, indeed it's been a long journey, so show me what you got for me
    The dust is building, storms outside waiting for the air to start chilling, the feeling!
    Death painted up on your ceiling as you look up from sleeping, it's creepy!
    In the deepest parts of your heart you know that the day draws nearer
    Show no fear or you'll end up giving yourself up and your life will end up messed up
    Now I know you're still stressed enough, but it's gonna soon blow up with no where to hold up
    Wanted in five burrows by five men who just want to hurt you, what you go through!
    And worst of all I'm your worst enemy, creating nasty scenarios with no heroes
    Waiting for the day you slip up and give up capped in the back with two slugs
    No luck when your own conscience is giving you nonsense and you're wanted
    Die now or face the consequences of actions done in hard times
    When things seemed fine sold some crack and smoked some lines
    Now you're framed for killing the big man's main man, no chance
    To clear your name because some things just don't go the ways we had dreamed
    Before we deemed what was supposed to be would be, but didn't so we need to make a new plan
    Before the aftermath of what's at hand gets you canned, landed in some alleyway with no chance to survive either way
    Life's funny that way
    I'm your worst enemy

    "Mike"

    Based on a true story...


    I wanna tell you a story
    A story about Mike
    A story stuck in time
    A story with a little rhyme


    Now Mike had his life together
    Played ball, he had nothing better
    But maybe a girl sooner or later
    A fly honey and soon he'd date her
    Moesha, he found and married her
    Worked a ten hour shift in his own business
    No more ghetto games like he used to witness
    No more selling crack, getting jacked
    No more running from the cops, and getting popped
    Life was good, but still he resembled the hood
    It takes only one night to go back to what you known all your life
    Mike liked to chill in a bar after working hard
    With his homies he'd buy a round for all
    But one dude was talking ****
    Walked up to Mike half drunk, swung and missed
    Mike let him know his distress with his fist
    All over was a bloody mess
    But this is the ghetto, no one is gonna snitch
    For snitches end up in ditches
    A week later, same bar same hater
    Mike saw him, same dude from a week ago
    Dude looked like he had a chip on his shoulder
    He got bolder, walked over to Mike, room got colder
    All it took was a second to take a life that's lasted decades
    Dude shot Mike point blank range in the face
    Brains all over the place
    And that's how this story ends

    Was just trying to throw a song together the other day, didn't get very far and yeah, it's not that great anyway, but yeah...

    There you are at the end of the world
    Sitting in your mind thinking of that girl
    And you wonder, will it last?
    Here we are, at last together again
    Holding hands like we used to way back when-
    We were younger, these years past.

    But where are you when the sun goes down?
    And where are you when my tears pour out?
    And where are you? I wanna shout



    ...as I said, I didn't get very far, heh.

    Some Hillarious malay poem:
    Jikalau roboh Kota Melaka, Balik Muar

    Turun tangga naik tannga, Lif Rosak

    Bersatu kita teguh, bercerai kahwin lagi

    If Melacca is destroy, go back to south (malay is on north)

    Downstairs Upstairs, Lif out of service

    Together we strong, separate just married another one

    :woeisme:

    These games that I play,
    These words that you say,
    All affect me in this way,
    Unbelievable for the way I feel this very day,
    My love for you will never cease
    I will love you always and forever,
    Until the day that I decease.

    I try so hard to satisfy you,
    But it seems whatever I do..
    Nothing is ever good enough for you, My love
    Our love used to fly, and soar through the sky like a dove.

    Now we sit together at this bench.
    We thought our love would be a sinch (sp?)
    But never did we know it would be this hard.
    I had to act stupid, one little mistake, and now I'm singing like a bard..

    I gave up on you once baby..
    Could you please forgive me.. yes no.. Even maybe..?
    I love you is that alright..?
    I still want to be with you every night...

    Laying by your side
    This decision in life we could never decide..
    It seems we went astray..
    And with that.. Our love went away..

    Please forgive me baby..
    I can't live without you...
    I want to be with you baby...
    For the rest of my life.. I do I do...

    Now the time has come..
    Your bus is here and now I wait,
    And wonder about our love and what it had become...
    I listen to the words "Good Bye" they repeat over and over in my mind
    I can't quit thinking about you as you ride away..

    And so I sit here now, This very day
    Awaiting your return to this spot
    and maybe somehow some way
    We can forgive each other and start over,
    Because all I want.. Is for you to be my lover..

    It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

    You're welcome. And that's like me I guess, someone or something inspires my poems, I can't write a poem without inspiration from something.

    lovely Kovu! fantastic! but as Azzy said, quite sad.....

    And now, a little something from me.

    Time:

    It is said
    That a woman sits in the window
    And stares out at the world
    She doesn't eat, drink, or do anything
    But watch
    Watch time pass by

    Noone knows how long she's been there
    Some say years
    Others centuries
    Milleniums

    Mothers taunt their children saying
    She's watching you
    The children don't listen
    But always take care when they pass her house

    She's a legend, a myth they say
    But she's there
    Always watching
    Never losing a second

    That's well written Lunar, and a cool subject too, it's really nice. Though I think the first word may have a spelling error :Psst:
