All right, let's just say that I've been promoted to head of Poetry. Right, Coral? I can't really remember. I have short term memory loss.
Anyway, this poetry part of the forum is where you post your, well, poems. (You probably figured that out, huh?) You can post any type of poetry: couplets, free verse, blank verse, haiku, limerick, or just any kind of poem that's in existence. I'm not your dictionary, look it up yourself (JK, my friends call me the dictionary).
I hope you enjoy.
(Also: this is also apparently the Advice column. I have no control over Advice whatsoever, unless Coral Andrews tells me that I do, so...whoever does control Advice, please claim it!!!! Anyway, hope you enjoy your poetry!!!)

Forgive
The world is a place of wonder
Where we can dream and hope
And make things real
But the world is also a place of hate
Where things are created and
Destroyed just as easily
And we can't help that things cannot
Be changed.
The world is full of destruction.
There are limits,
And boundaries yet to be set.
There is hate and love
And joy and fear
Forgiveness and grudges
Which is why I love you
I love you and I hate you
I wish I could forgive you but I don't know how
I wish I could move on but I can't seem
To know how to let go.
I try not to let on that I still love you
But you still sense it...weakly.
You sense the hatred more
And for that I will never forgive you.
I will never forgive myself.
Avalon
Avalon.
Where no man can prevail upon.
Its halls are brightly lit
And no man can ever know it
As long as they shall live
Or their life they must give.
Maidens of coral lips and shining glory
They sing their song and give a story
Play their harps and make a lovely song
For the maidens can do no wrong.
The men live in no wondering
For each man is a godlike king.
They seek no answers, do no wrong
For why try, with their worlds long gone?
Men of certain vanity
Try to relive their fantasy
But why give it a try upon
The lovely shores of Avalon?
The island that no man may enter
For it will render
Them hopeless drifters
Trying to find equal to the givers
Of the glorious Avalon
Where no man can prevail upon.
With the seagulls and animals scarce on Avalon
The island as ancient as Babylon
Beautiful waters surround the isle
The inhabitants never idle.
Dark hollow
On the morrow
For the happy Avalon
The end of it is near upon
Then the supernatural island ends
As the fabric of the universe bends
For the world of Avalon ties us together
And it was meant to last forever
Yet the prophecies are undone
The worlds have changed, they have run
An unnatural course
Driven by an unknown force
Given types of technology
With no kind of knowledge, the
People of that lovely place
With the knowledge that their race
Is close to ending
They are still pretending
That they are in their old time
Full of folklore and ancient rhyme
Glorious tales of heroes of old
Women spinning straw into gold
The men of the isle
Working, never idle,
The women, singing songs
Yet each of them longs
For the old days to once again return
They will never learn
What is done cannot be undone
For technology has won
The culture is lost, the people gone
With no single bond
To Earth left intact today
For all the Avalon fey
Have lost
This is the price, the cost
And both sides must pay
For the links to fray,
And, finally, fall apart
In doing so, destroy the art
Of the land which no man could have stood upon
The once-glorious, once-lovely Avalon.
In My Dreams
Wish you hadn't gone
Left me all alone
Wish you had said yes
Wish you hadn't won
But I do things your way
And you just won't give in
So I will
Never win.
But don't forget
The things that I did for you!
Don't forget that I always
Loved you too
And no matter where you are
Tonight
I'll be singing this song
With you in my mind...
In my dreams, you are there
To comfort me
To give me memories
But then those memories
Start to go bad
You're in my dreams
And it makes me mad...
Don't forget
The things that I did for you!
Don't forget that I always
Loved you too
And no matter where you are
Tonight
I'll be singing this song....
With you in my mind.
When you're in my dreams, there is no limit.
I can reach up to the sky
Sometimes when things start to look bad
I just wish I could die
Then I think of the things we did together
All those forlorn, forgotten
Things
Still I wish that that night...
You'd given me that ring...
Don't forget the things that I did for you!
Don't forget that I always loved you too!
And no matter where you are tonight
I'll be singing this song
With you in my mind......
With you in my mind......
With you in my dreams...
Just Remember This Page
I know that life has purpose
I know that purpose is love
I know that one day
We will all go above
But sometimes
There's just sorrow
When a person dies
Admitting to love and trust
Admitting to truth and lies
Knowing life brings sadness
That's what life is all about
Life is like a roller coaster
Up, down, in, and out.
Praying for the dead
Respecting their last wishes
Ending the funeral with
Sadness, tears, hugs, and kisses
But when you leave and you go home
Remember something you needed to say
And you didn't
You can't put that on layaway
Well here's something
I need to say
You will be missed
You will be mourned
Your family has been divided,
Torn.
There is no relief
There is only belief
And when it's your time
To leave
We regard Death as a thief.
Forget all the insults
Forget all the rage
Forget all your pain
Just remember this page
It's the things we have left
Of you
That matters the most
Because everything
Else we have of you
Is lost.
There is regret,
Forgiveness, misery
Death hurts all
You and me
Forget all the insults
Forget all the rage
Forget all the pain
Just remember this page.
**This is just some of my poetry, to get you guys going. Hope you like it! Feel free to comment!!!**

Welcome, come in, yes this is me
I gave once too much and now
I can't get rid of thee
I can't be subtle, I can't be kind
WHy should I be there for ******** off and get a life!!
Read a book unwritten,
Kill the poet's dream unhidden
I wonder did I love too much, cross the final line?
Rip my life and spread the news
Cut my wings and make me choose
I leave the ********' sword in the rock
Feel hurt? Why I should give a damn?
I know I'm easy target,
I'm sold on black market
How would you feel if I stole what you need?
I give everything to you, what will you do?
What makes you think you won't burn in Hell?
You see a life but not mine
Read me a line from your torture guide
Download new lies on your scythe
This is my vision, this is one man's decision
Wise thinking from a fool
For twisted minds I'm a tool
I could be independent, but I can take the heat
Variety of thieves make my illusions obsolete
I know I'm easy target,
I'm sold on black market
How would you feel if I stole what you need?
I give everything to you, what will you do?
What makes you think you won't burn in Hell?
You see a life but not mine
Read me a line from your torture guide
Download new lies on your scythe
What makes you think my words burn in hell?
I have a life, read me a line
Your diary lies...please get a life
..burn in Hell
You see a life but not mine
Read me a line from your torture guide
Download new lies on your scythe
What makes you think...
What makes you think you won't burn in Hell?
You see a life but not mine
Read me a line from your torture guide
Download new lies on your scythe
What makes you think,
Won't burn in Hell?
You see a life,
Read me a line,
Your torture guide,
Download new lies

Inside, I died
but outside I live
in a shell of what I once was,
and wanted to be.
And my freedom gave way
with the shifts of the sands of time
and I slowly drift away

I wrote this today, its for the book im writing, and its supposed to be by a vampire. Here goes nothing......
My breath fogs up the window
as I watch the newfallen snow
and I smile and wonder
what would he think of me now?
He knew me when I was little
before I was what I am.
But I wonder what he would
think of me now.
If he knew I was more than human
But when I think of him
Before i sealed his fate
I wonder if when i killed him
iftheir was love or hate?
But just like a rose
I grow toward the sun
knowing the purest red
Means Im alive
blood.
Whatcha think?!

You guys are so very young and amazing. That last piece was fun and direct. Here's a masterwork to throw a log on the fire. Stand in awe of cubism and refined modernism.... the way these words make your tongue slide across the surface of a frozen lake. Smell the incense in the air as cloud after wafting cloud transport from this realm to a foreign land. His work is harmony in ultraviolet light. Making you a bioluminescent vessel of bliss and wonderment. Experience the effortless beauty of e.e. cummings...
O Thou to whom the musical white spring
offers her lily inextinguishable,
taught by thy tremulous grace bravely to fling
Implacable death's mysteriously sable
robe from her redolent shoulders,
Thou from whose
feet reincarnate song suddenly leaping
flameflung,mounts,inimitably to lose
herself where the wet stars are softly keeping
their exquisite dreams--O Love! upon thy dim
shrine of intangible commemoration,
(from whose faint close as some grave languorous hymn
pledged to illimitable dissipation
unhurried clouds of incense fleetly roll)
i spill my bright incalculable soul.
~

I liked all of them. Especially that last one, Coral (haha that was good before tho) but I liked all of them. Here, try this one:
You think that love can be
Wrapped inside a diamond ring
You think that I'll say it's okay
And then I'll give you anything
You think love just needs a
Witness
And that'll bring you
Forgiveness.
Well let me tell you something
Let me fill you in
I'm tired of all the promises
I'm tired of givin' in
So I'm gonna let you know
What I really think
I think that you're a *******
I don't want your stupid ring.
I won't give you forgiveness
I won't let you make me a stupid fool
I won't let you treat me
Like I'm just another tool.
So get out, go away
Walk out the door
You don't appreciate me
I can't love you anymore
I can't hear your stupid cries
I only hear the haunting lies
So go find another girl to fill in my spaces
I don't want your haunting shadows
With murky, smirking faces.
** I call it "Faces." What do you think? Criticism, please!! **

Really, really good job, ppl. I've got something I JUST NOW wrote. Hope you like it!
Felt The Way We Did
I’ve listened to every word you ever said
Even though I hated you
Leaving you filled me with dread
You’re the only thing I’ve ever known
The only thing that’s ever felt so real
In this fiery pit of numbness
You’re the thing that makes me feel.
Is there no relief in tears?
Is there no reply in your eyes?
You touch me, you speak
You make me feel so weak
But it’s all filled with your lies.
My life
Is it just a toy to you?
Something you can play with
Something else to do?
Chorus
I miss that leather black jacket
Hanging up in your closet rack
With the tag still on.
And I miss how we’d talk on the phone
So convinced we couldn’t be alone
And I miss the time you gave me that pretty
Heart necklace
Talk about things we’d felt
But never said
To anyone else
No one else felt the way we did
When we were just kids.
Why can’t there be a time
When you come by?
And we’ll just laugh like the old days
Forget the way
We took
Forget it, can’t change it
Not gonna lock my heart up in a cage anymore
Let the birds free
Let them sing
Let them see how beautiful they can be.
Remember that time you took me on a picnic?
Promised you loved me and you always would?
Look back on the time that I said I’d
Never look back
Well I am
This town’s disappearing in the front
View mirror of my little
Cattalack
Don’t take me back
Don’t want you
Keep that blue jean jacket on your
Closet rack
Won’t be begging you to take me back
Not while I’m driving this Cattalack
Not this time…
No, not this time…
Repeat Chorus
Well, I’m not a kid anymore
Don’t you remember the old days?
Before we lost our
Way?
When we still talked on the phone
Thought we’d never be truly
Alone
That feeling’s not gone
I can’t talk to anyone now
My heart’s racing
Feel like I’m chasing it
Round and round my head
But it won’t come back again.
(slowly)
Why won’t it come back again?
Why can’t you come back again?
Do you still feel the way we did
When we were just kids?
There’s no way I’d let you go now
No way I’d set you free
All the birds can fly away now
But I want you here with me.
And I miss that leather black jacket
Hanging up on your closet rack
With the tag still on…
(music fires up again)
And I miss how we’d talk on the phone
So convinced that we weren’t alone
And I miss the time you gave me that pretty
Heart necklace
Talk about things we’d felt
But never said
(Well I’m saying them now)
No one else felt the way we did
(We did)
When we were just kids.
Well, I’m no kid anymore
The rain’s starting to pour
This Cattalack is threatening to quit
Remember how you used to love this?
Remember how you used to love this?
(Remember how you used to love me?)
No… no… no… no…
Remember how you used to love me?
Remember how I used to love you?
Can’t you tell that I still… do?
