POEM nonadult literature/poetry/emotional/traditional MAYA-SAYS-HAYA http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/default.gif Copyright 2013 ~MAYA-SAYS-HAYA Why Do We Love?
We always wind up broken...
Our spirit flies away like a dove...

Why do we search?
Why do we feel?
Nothing will ever be real...
So why do we waste our time?

We do these things for hope and faith
For dreams
In such a hopeless place...
But we hang on to what we have,
Clenched like a glove to our thoughts
In hope that somewhere out there...
there IS love...

-i have sung it truly, your body knew me-
I take my guise and sit on the horizon of wake-sleep,
And tell my soul it's mine to keep.
-you can always show me; your body knows me-

I savour stillness in the safe darkness and stare
Into my personal realm; concentration uncut.
-bring yourself through, your mind and body anew-
I sink through my nose and flow; a bubble in a river,
As my vibrant thoughts glide as they slither.
-i will be there, my transcendence to share-

A message from the other world whispers close,
And offers some help ]]> ]]> http://mashabraslavsky.deviantart.com/art/I-wish-373750716 http://mashabraslavsky.deviantart.com/art/I-wish-373750716 Sat, 25 May 2013 09:42:07 PDT I wish... nonadult literature/poetry/emotional/traditional mashabraslavsky http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/m/a/mashabraslavsky.jpg?3 Copyright 2013 ~mashabraslavsky See underwater treasures  of your dream

Reflecting dancing light  of the sunbeam

It tells me if you're flying high or low
Wether your heart  is beating fast or slow

A Rondeau is a French form of poetry, 15 lines long, consisting of three stanzas,
a quintet, a quatrain, and a sestet. Lines 9 and 15 are short because they have a refrain from line 1-a repeating phrase.

They're taking me over and I'm to weak to fight,
They tied my down with all their might,
And now I'm lieing here confined.

Tears run heavily down my cheeks,
I'm crying so hard I can't even speak,
These feelings won't leave me alone,
And now I'm lieing here confined.

I try to scream but these feelings stop me,
They're dancing around in my head like fleas,
I'm too afraid to stop them,
I'm too nervous to chastise them,
They will never leave me be,
And now I'm lieing here confined. ]]> The reason why I am putting this up now is because I love this poem so much,

It embodies pain
Personifies it

Rain is my poem
It is my inspiration
Each drop is one unspoken word
Every word is like a dance

I dance in the rain
Sing out my own words
Deep down soaking wet
I can breath clearer

The water protects me
Barefooted I can run along the road
No pain can touch me
Constantly refreshed

Hours of drizzling
Minutes of showers
Seconds of down pouring words
One moment of relief

Yesterday I slept in the rain outside
Tomorrow It will thunder
Then after a week I will forget
The rain will come and I will dance again

I hear a pebble drop in a pond.
I feel the wind slipping through my fingers.
I see time passing before my eyes,
as the flowers of spring wither and die.
But like the pebble I'm sinking and drowning.
And as quick as the wind, I
was gone from your mind.
and just like time, what once was, what
will be, and what is,
is all fragile as those flowers.
And just like those flowers,
I realized our history together is better off this way... ]]> http://addictedtunes.deviantart.com/art/The-Swan-and-the-Crows-373786394 http://addictedtunes.deviantart.com/art/The-Swan-and-the-Crows-373786394 Sat, 25 May 2013 12:45:58 PDT The Swan and the Crows nonadult literature/poetry/emotional/traditional AddictedTunes http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/a/d/addictedtunes.jpg?1 Copyright 2013 ~AddictedTunes http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/
Moon on its feathers, reflecting

Its pure, stainless gleam, blinding;

Of heaven, the creature projecting.

Water thickens and darkens,

Ill-driven, risen arm

The pure swan threatens;

The clammy contacts the stainless harm.

The fingers, their growth,

To crows they turn,

And to their name's worth,

Stinging beaks, they burn.

Unaffected, the swan glides,

Black stains on his coat.

Little by little, the dark the white hides.

Heavier, the swan drowns;

The remaining pure feathers float.

The swan, forgotten,

A new being it now is

That looms around, rotten

Oh, the swan I am ended like this! ]]> http://xxfivefiresxx.deviantart.com/art/I-found-myself-underneath-373785669 http://xxfivefiresxx.deviantart.com/art/I-found-myself-underneath-373785669 Sat, 25 May 2013 12:39:50 PDT I found myself, underneath nonadult literature/poetry/emotional/traditional xxfivefiresxx http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/x/x/xxfivefiresxx.jpg?3 Copyright 2013 ~xxfivefiresxx Where there were no notes, no bent demands,
Millions of shadows from every hate every love
Billions of masters abandoning their low lusts

We were left here, "We know no rest nor pain!"
Incapable of decision. True shadows of brains,
Scientific and metallic, underneath that sand,
We are all dying, the final shallow reprimand. ]]> http://kagetora-chesh.deviantart.com/art/What-A-World-That-Would-Be-373784886 http://kagetora-chesh.deviantart.com/art/What-A-World-That-Would-Be-373784886 Sat, 25 May 2013 12:40:48 PDT What A World That Would Be nonadult literature/poetry/emotional/traditional Kagetora-Chesh http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/default.gif Copyright 2013 ~Kagetora-Chesh If our imaginations could flow freely
Or maybe if our dreams could be given life
Living side by side with us in daily strife

What a world that would be

If what I drew, drew breath of life
I would draw my fantasies
Warriors of different dimensions looked in constant strife
And make fact out of mythical fallacies
What a world that would be

Different dimensions birthed by my mind
Wonderful, peaceful kingdoms, lands plagued by war
Heroes and villains of many a varying kind
Not always practical nor predictable, never quite knowing what for

To be that person

You want

You meet resistance ]]>

Man can be strong,
Men can be smart,
Even if they’re wrong
And have a foolish heart.

Men are like rocks,
A cave to let you in,
Solid as a block
But chaffing raw your skin.

I’ve known them in all sorts,
The losers, knaves, the sports,
The wise men with their grey eyes deep,
The mutes, the brags, the psychopathic creep,
The rich who shatter their plutonic wealth,
Incredibly fat around the belt,
The holy men that sow unholy seed,
In velvet crimson room with secret deed,
The ones that strut and snort and noisily grunt,
Like stallion steed and grubbing runt.

To take my bow

And sick of the fear

Begins with just a tear

And I drop the smile

When you look at my smile
You see nothing wrong
You look in my eyes and see

That even worlds apart
