Since the first day we met,
I knew you were the one.
God answered my prayers;
You came down from above.
You gave me your heart,
You gave me your trust.
From that very moment,
It was more than just lust.
Your sweet, loving words
Can never be compared.
I am your forever partner;
My soul I have bared.
Never put into question
Any of my feelings being true.
I have found my one and only.
Baby, that is YOU!

:)
i love this!
 
I actually threw it away ten or more years ago, when I wanted to say goodbye to a part of me. A very foolish thing. Remember some of it. Should try and rewrite it. It was called Silence in Monochrome.
 
I think we all do that, as in throw stuff away because we don't think it's us anymore.

If you have the time and inclination, then why not see if you can redo it.
 
I regretted the act, and never quite got round to fixing it. So I think I will try and rewrite it. Thank you for giving me the motivation x
 
So any budding Poets about? I used to write stuff so many moons ago now. But thought I'd share a couple.

Hazy Days

The days drift on and on
But there must be an end.
I see her face in every crowd;
Hear her voice in every word.

Images of snatched moments we had
Drift like snowflakes through my heart.

I never knew why she left,
I guess she's never gone.
But I know there's a hole in my heart
Where she used to be.


Fireflies

From on high I watch the lights below
They shine like so many fireflies
Their patterns push out to light the dark
I wonder of the dreams
That those below are having
Their lives unaware of my passing

As I watch the land slip by
My thoughts reach upto heaven
My mind wanders like the clouds
But slowly I tire and fall into slumber
My mind dreams like those below
But onwards I always go..

Love it! Thanks for this thread, can't wait to read more!
 
I've found that I wrote it and leave it. I then come back a few days later and change it and leave it. It takes me 3-4 hits before I don't hate it..

Often sharing helps with like minded ppl. Though a few can get a little special and not like any critisism which can make improvement a little hard.
Very true on your part as well but consider it's art and if it pleases just one person then it's beautiful in their eyes. Not every one should fit into one mold . . Today I might write a triangle which triangles would love but tomorrow I might write a square so . . .lol funny way of putting it but you get what I mean?? Right?
 
Word wise I'm off the cuff. Poetry I have piles of half finished stuff that I often abandon or steal bits from when something works better.

Indeed most people don't aim to be mean or rude. They just want to understand it better and make it work.
Same here, I have notebooks full of random stuff only a few I have considered finished.
 
Leonard Cohen
Come Healing

O gather up the brokenness
And bring it to me now
The fragrance of those promises
You never dared to vow
The splinters that you carry
The cross you left behind
Come healing of the body
Come healing of the heart

O let the heavens hear it
The penitential hymn
Come healing of the spirit
Come healing of the limb
 
The Way I'm Feeling

The way I'm feeling, unexplained
Undefined,
Uncontrollable like a ball rolling down a hill until . .
I hit a wall.
Crashing, crumbling into pieces.
A brittle mistake wanting to just bounce again
Pick me up and mold me into a new shape
The way I'm feeling . . . Maybe a square
Then I could fit inside the box you hide in
Somehow I know there won't be room
Anyway, I curl up into myself staying true to form . . .
The way I'm feeling, an uncompromised ball.


Lol :D I never change
 
This is for my BFF in FCN - English is not my first or second so forgive the mistakes... :-)

We where strangers

Passing by each others

Catch on to a funny moment

Then the joyride start

Careful feel feel in words

Testing the waters

And then as if the moment was right

2 souls touch over a distance

In a journey of words

You become part of me

My days are empty

When we dont say hi

When emotion overwelm me

You there

When its dark

You there

When i am in pain

You there

You dried my tears

Slap me when i am silly

Took my hand and lead me

Too happiness

You made me laugh

When my heart is torn

You give me strenght

To face reality

You are a special kind of special

You bring to me sunshine

You fill me with joy

You my favorite online friend

You just fit into my heart

Because you my ANGEL my save place
