Ok I personally
LOVE
poetry
So if you have something to "contribute"
SHOW ME!!!
Cuz I wanna seee
Yes i do!
Here are some of my work:

Starving to Obtain Nothing
I don't see why my feelings are always tears
Trying to hold back while fighting my fears
Waking from nightmares every night and day
But they won't leave me alone;they won't go away
It's still all the same, the agony neverending
No matter the amount, my heart still isn't used to the bending
The feeling of happiness is no longer used
My mind is to numb, too cold, and abused
So suffocated by darkness it's impossible to get air
But go outside myself to breathe is something I wouldn't dare
Noone can tell my feelings behind the stone mask
If anyone wonders, they certainly don't ask
Craving something, starving myself to obtain it
But really I don't know why I even give a *beep*
Starving to obtain nothing; my time being spent
Seeing the damage to my heart is much worse then a dent
Hiding in the corners of my mind, striving to stay alive
Sometimes it feels like my mind is stuck in DRIVE
Life is to depressing why is it always like this?
Your love is what I need.it's wat i crave. wat i miss
Darkness helps me hide myself from everyone's judgmental eyes
I strain to remember everything but I fail no matter how many tries
Starving my self to obtain nothing is all I really do
Dying to do something.anything to be with you
Curling up holding myself tight trying not to cry
Why can't everyone leave me alone. just let me die
Nothing matters anymore if this is all that happens in life
I need relief...the only think that helps anymore is a knife
I do need help really I know I do
But get help is definitely somthing I'm unable to do
I need life breathed back into me
Your face is what I desperately need to see
Sorrowful thinking; endless frustration
I can no longer tell if I'm waking up or dying
I can't comprehend it, no matter how much I'm trying
Dead inside; no external reason to live
I have nothing else..nothing left to give
So dead from everything; comforted by none
This life is over. I give up. I'm done.




Dying to Be perfect
She feels so worthless, the models are so perfect in her eyes
She knows everyone thinks she's ugly, the compliments are just lies
Counting how many bites she eats, to make sure she gets it up later
Knowing the thinner she gets, more guys will want to date her
To all her friends she's perfect, that's how she wants to be
But sadly no one knows, no one cares to even see
She's dying to be perfect, becoming dangerously small
Trying to be beautiful, while stumbling down the hall
She doesn't have enough energy to even stand up right
But still she has to make sure her clothes aren't too tight
Wearing baggy clothes, hiding her skin and bones
Friends keep calling wondering if she's ok, but she can't even reach for the phone
All she wants to do is sleep, hoping to lose more
Starving herself so much her insides are sore
She tells herself it's for the best, food is the enemy, its bad
Making sure she's freakishly thin, after all it's the latest fad
People start to ask, she brushes them off telling them she's just suffering from the flu
Really she knows she has a problem, she just doesn't know what to do
She looks in the mirror, seeing how fat and ugly she is
When really she's nearly dying by starving to be perfect
Her mom starts to worry, asking questions to find out
She gives a lame excuse, so her mom still doubts
But she has to be perfect even though it kills her inside
She covers her skin, hoping herself, she'll hide
I hope someone helps her because she's coming close to death
She curses the reflection in the mirror, with her last staggered breath



If It was Right
If it was the right thing to do then why do I feel this way
Feeling guilty throughout every night and day
If it was right then why can't I get you out of my mind
I thought all the memories we shared were now behind
You said you'd never move on, I'd still be your only one
I worry those promises may unravel...come undone
But why should I even care? I'm the one who made it end
Of course as always my heart still won't bend
I need to move on..I already have partly, sure
I'm even unaware of anything I've made you endure
If it was right why am I even writing this..
Completely unknowing...wondering if you even miss
If it was right why am I still confused
I'm sorry if I hurt you, your feelings misused
I know you won't see this so why am I speaking?
Maybe because slowly my heart is still leaking
If it was right why don't I believe so?
Maybe because for some odd unknown reason I can't quite let go

I got lotsa poetry... most of it, though, I don't know if it'd be allowed on here - it's very strongly Christian.

I get obsessed with writing it. I mainly write it to reflect my feelings. and I've writen about 5 songs.

my fav is "Dying to Be perfect" !!! yep !!

I like poetry, but I have more fun writing it. It's a fun way to write about the world around you!

and its a nice way to let your feelings out on paper..

I like the Poem Starving to Obtain Nothing best of the three. I really like Poetry, but unfortunately I'm no good at writing Poetry. It's a good way let ur feelings out.

I have an account at allpoetry if you're interested. I write rhyme and meter. My username there is Frodofan also.

But, for past poets, I would recommend Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allen Poet, John Masefield, Emily Bronte, Hartley Coleridge, Robert Frost, Dante Gabriel Rosetti, John Clare, and Christina Rosetti.

As for modern poets, look up Michael Fantina if you can.

Once I knew these super-annoying people who said that poets like Edgar Allen and Robert Frost, weren't really good poets at all.

They were some stupid stubborn idiots...

haha...ah..sorry.

I write Poetry! but umm...I dont know if I am good at it.

I can't imagine anyone saying that. I'd like to know who they thought WERE good poets.

I know. Thats what I was thinking. and they went around criticizing everyone else's poems so cruelly, even my own, that I thought maybe I wasnt any good at Poetry. they always thought that each poem they read was 'horrible' and 'unpoetic'

^ I don't think there's any good or bad poetry, because all poetry expresses someone's deep and honest feelings and secret thoughts. That's something that you can't put a label on to me.

Regardless, I'm not showing any of you my poetry.

I love Starving for Nothing. I've felt the same way so many times... I also have a friend who would probably benefit from Dying to be Perfect. I might send it to her, if that's alright with you.

heh. thats almost exactly what I said to them. but then they said that those things dont matter, and you need to follow poetic devices and rules.

aww!! you should share some. ^^ Im sure its great.

I like writing angst and haikus.

I've never gotten into haikus. But writing angst is theraputic. It's also good to channel that into other things though. I write poetry a lot and I think my writing has really matured now that I don't focus so much on myself, but channel my emotions into the characters I invent and also observe and try to capture the feelings of others.
