Ok I'll enter and here is my poem:

Pitch Black

I can’t see your face,
There’s nothing there,
Nothing but blackness,
As if I were walking into
A cave without a lantern,
It’s as dark as onyx,
It can be a rose,
Or a name of a movie,
As dark as night,
Unruffled black velvet,
It can be seen when
Candles are out,
But it can never be felt.

Here's my poem.


The Tide

Whispering wind
Then all goes still

Streaks of red across a blue canvas
Arching impossibly high above

Whisper
The dawning's whisper

The whisper of a new day
Of new life
Of new hope

But that whisper calls
For a boat to sail
"Give to me your ring of silver, and you take mine
If you must go
And with this silver ring you shall ever know
It's you my heart still holds"

Across the rolling sea he would sail
Bidden by the king
He kisses her hand
Tears, she can hold no longer
Farewell, farewell to one true love

Autumn comes, winter fades
White uncovers green
But still no word from him
She knows her love has died

She cursed the sea, and cursed the winter
Cursed the wind that breathed
And she cursed the king, and all of his servants
That stole her love from her

Tears of grief have called him home
But as a spirit, he cannot stay
Nothing in the world
Could save him now

She awoke to true love's whisper
There he was, at her feet
But when she pulled him to her
No warmth from him did she find

"Give to me your sword of silver
And I will lay down to die, my love
If it is you that cannot stay
Then I must follow"

So she took his sword of silver
And when she awoke to dawning's whisper
Tide rolled out to meet them

Okay ill add my poem. Can I add 2? These are from my quizzilla account - Yaviel14. I hope its not to gory. I have a certain cinda style with my poetry, usally its like im telling a story or trying to show you something. Not sure well here you go hope you like it.

Wounded Soldier-

I was there on the battle field of pain,
As I wacthed my friend motionless he fell,
Blood dripped down his arms from his slow beating heart,
Hope had now faded into the mist,
My eyes met his as he fell to his doom,
I could not bare to see him fall like this,
To suffer when he was fighting for the country,
While all of us our at home wacthing our mindless televisions,
While there fighting to there death,
Were just are here,
At our Homes,
Oh how I wish that I did not have to see him die this way,
Sometimes I wish it was me,
Out there bleeding to death,
So he would be allowed to live in peace,
God bless the soldiers.

Kay its cinda deep. I wrote this a few months ago. Please no one take this poem as a ofence I dont mean it to be I was cinda depressed when I wrote this.

Here's my poem:

PAPER FLOWERS
I have traveled terrains
And sailed the seas;
Noble kindred I have met
And fair places I have seen
Yet these visions remain
But silent longings of my heart

When morn approaches and
The silent dawn breaks,
As rain falls gently
Whispering its tale;
I linger on in my field
Of lovely paper flowers

I behold their glory
I feel their joy
A smile they bring
Unto my sullen lips
Yet I feel no warmth
Within these fields
I hear not the whisper
Of wind through trees

From the truth
I do hide
Pushing away the
World of reality
Not wishing to hear
Such words unbidden

In my fields of fancy
I am the king
The pain the joy,
Are at my command
Yet as fair and as true
As they may appear,
Still they are distant-
Floating paper flowers

Lost in my maze
Of pleasant dreaming,
I drown out the screaming
And chaos of your pleading
And linger on in my falsehood

So let me lie here
Deep within myself
And bask as a goddess
In this imaginary light;
My field of paper flowers


The basic idea of this poem was taken from the song Imaginary by Evanescence:

i linger in the doorway
of alarm clock screaming monsters calling my name
let me stay
where the wind will whisper to me
where the raindrops as they're falling tell a story
in my field of paper flowers
and candy clouds of lullaby
i lie inside myself for hours
and watch my purple sky fly over me

don't say i'm out of touch
with this rampant chaos - your reality
i know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
the nightmare i built my own world to escape

in my field of paper flowers
and candy clouds of lullaby
i lie inside myself for hours
and watch my purple sky fly over me

swallowed up in the sound of my screaming
cannot cease for the fear of silent nights
oh how i long for the deep sleep dreaming
the goddess of imaginary light

heres my short entry

Hearts must yearn
Ever for the light

To seek lost comfort
On darkest nights

For who will comfort
long lost souls

but the radiant
endless light
