The Fallen One

I figured what the heck. I saw that The Assassin posted a limerick, which inspired me to post a poem or two, but then I realized...why not share the love? Post your poems here if you so choose, just for the heck of it or if you want some critique.

One of the first poems I wrote, I don't think it's the best but oh well. If you don't like dark poems don't read it. :p

Also fun fact, Lord Exavier is my "pen name."

Remembering

Remembering songs from ages past,
Of many years ago,
And it seems that only I know,
That memories are what's left of the forgotten past.

Remembering happiness of lifetimes past,
Though not so long ago,
And it seems that only I know,
That happiness is only fleeting and cannot last.

Remembering broken promises from the past,
Of ages not so long ago,
And it seems that only I know,
That a promise is words and not meant to last.

Forgetting is the problem of the past,
And remembering takes its place,
Look at me and see my face,
And tell me nothing of the past.

--Lord Exavier

Have fun.
 
Honestly, I really liked this poem.

I could relate to it at times and it had a nice flow. Also when most people write "Dark" poetry it comes off sounding super Emo but this one doesn't.

Much better than most of the stuff on here.
 
I guess I'll post a poem. :)


The Summer Night

The sun is moving behind the clouds,
and the moon to take its place.
The brilliance of the sight above
takes ones breath away.

Not a roll of thunder,
not a drop of rain.
There is nothing better to end this day.

The stars above shine so bright.
What a wonder! What a sight!

But, soon enough it goes away.
Light shines as the darkness fades.

The sun is climbing in the sky.
And the birds are singing somewhere nearby.
But how I cannot wait to see another summer night.
 
Okay well at least I inspire people :>

Haikou
A brisk ocean air
The mountains glazed in silver
A winter feeling

Yeah, it's very open minded so you can interpret it however :f
 
A Haiku:

Snow(The Best Thing Ever)
Gently falling down,
Flurries dancing on the wind,
Flakes collect upon,
upturned faces mouth agape.


Muahahahahahahasnow!!!
 
The distance between us is only as far as you want it to be

We have no limitations

It can be as we dream of

As we've done hundreds of times, but never once have

There is always a way

Through the hardships of coming to you

The benefits will never be doubted

I have paved the way for it to work

But it will only work

If you want it to as much as I do



._. I'm sure it failed, but oh well.
 
A few poems I made last year for language class during the poetry unit:

(Titles in bold)

The Dog

There once way a big harry dog
Who liked to follow a frog
But then one day
He just had to say
That he had to leave with a log

Colourful

Blue is as blue as the waves that crash against the shore
Yellow is as yellow as a bright banana
Red is as red as a big juicy apple
Green is as green as a giant watermelon
And orange is as orange as the sky at sunset

Paris out the window

Out through the window
You see people flow
In the Eiffel they will go

Over 100 colours
Cats with different coloured furrs
Everything fades into blurrs

My face is always blue
Whenever I don't see you,
But i'm sure you miss me too

As your falling from the sky
I just really wonder why,
Why you didn't say goodbye...

Water

Water
Wavy, Peaceful
Saving, Drinking, Washing
Blue, Cool,
Red, Fiery
Burning, Flaming, Blazing
Hot, Corageous
Fire

Yes, I know Courageous, furs, and blurs are misspelled there >,>

links to the pictures i took (a while ago) in order:

Colourful

Paris out the Window

In order of how good the poems are I would say:

1. Paris out the window
2. Water
3. Colourful
4. The Dog
 
Simple sonnet i wrote for my english class again :/

It's preeeetty emooo :)

I’m in my room, looking through my window,
All I can think about is an escape,
Want to get away, away from this low,
Wish my life was on a video tape,
I could press rewind and go back in time,
I would be able to fix my mistakes,
My life would be so great, and at its prime,
I would really do whatever it takes,
To fill this emptiness inside of me,
I just don’t want to be sad anymore,
I want to start over and be happy,
I’ll see myself through a different door,
I am going to start with a clean slate,
This is my life and I’ll choose my own fate.
 
For your consideration, some dorky haiku:

Mega Man:
Beat up some Masters
Thunder Beam kills in three hits (alt: Fight for everlasting peace!)
The points mean nothing

Mega Man 2:
Fight Metal Man first
Wily One is amazing
Air Man will not die

Mega Man 3:
Weirdo spring dog Rush
Proto Man makes you a man
Last boss weak to Top

Mega Man 4:
Beat up a Cossack
Skull Man's theme is awesomesauce
Wily's behind it

Mega Man 5:
Proto Man is evil?
Napalm Man is the hard one
It's Wily again

Mega Man 6:
Robot Tournament
The Mysterious Mister X
Is Wily disguised

Mega Man 7:
It's in sixteen bits
Auto is a little lame
Bass is pretty neat

Mega Man 8:
Mega Man plays soccer!
Voice acting is really bad
Duo is from space

Mega Man 9:
Cop-out or cool?
Splash Woman's been 34'd
Or so I have heard

Mega Man 10:
Roboenza spreads
Triple Blade is super neat!
Easy is easy
