The first thread is here: http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/No...ML/001819.html

Anyway, I don't have any poems right now... and I suggest you post some... NOW. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

I'll give it my best shot.
In the beginning, three were born
First the golden, now is forever
Live for the moment, thrillseeker
Only now exists, all else is nothing
Shining like the sun, too bright to look at
Next the silver, peaceful and soft
Live long yet do well, good samaritan
Bless all, do harm to none
Think of the future, yet remember the past
Like the star's light, small yet continuous
Last the black darkness, alone, friendless
Cold and hard, not living, not dying
Existing, sleeplessly, painfully
Now does not matter, nothing matters
Grief and pain, hopeless and hating
Forever, for eternity
Black sky at night, no silver to soften
So it was a long time
Then golden died first
Going out in a blaze of glory
A comet in the sky
Sun exploding, blindingly
Remembered forever, now is all
One brief flash, then all is gone
Next came silver, softly fading
Star dwindling in the darkness
Yet even last breath brings peace
And hope and forgiveness for all
Lone star in the darkness
Softly but surely
Last, the darkness
Not living, yet not dying
Existing forever
Outlasting the others
In a cloud of despair
Hopeless, hating,
Unforgiving, relentless
For all time, for eternity


??? Where did that come from? Sometimes I don't understand a single thing I think... if someone could explain what I've just written to me, I'd be very grateful...

Tiptoe
I ponder the meaning of tiptoe
Is it giving a toe as a tip;
Or the very tip of a toe;
Just what is tiptoe?

Fine! You guys are watching paint dry..whatever! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif I will make one that will be as boring as ever! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif

The tension fills the room
The Hall of Tests, the Hall of Challenges
The room that will open the door
To future's next home

As you take on it, walk on by
The enduring journey that exhausts
You do not fail to look back- or to your side
That someone is suffering, sweating equally as you do

Never failing to look
At her silent calm face
And to realize that time in the halls
Are passing by and are leaving you behind

The Dream of Wolves.

I’m walking through the night,
Being still,
With all my might.
My being is bare to the heat of the moon.
Don’t stay,
The Dream begins soon.

It does mean something,
(Though to you, not much)
That I walk and aspire,
To the paw’s soft touch.
It won’t chill you to think,
To take an eye and blink,
That when I’m seen,
I’m not there,
Does it matter that I’m anywhere?

For to you I’m but dust,
On the winds so chill.
Who takes what he wants,
And goes where he will.
Listen now as I howl,
For I go with the pack.
Turn away,
I’ll taste the flesh of your back.

But the blood is not real,
The tears won’t be shed,
Tis not you in the grave,
I’m the one who is dead.
It matters not,
What you think or contrive,
I’ll never be able,
To feel truly alive.

For The Dream is just the same,
It’s a dream I’ll feel,
And dream again.
Despite the comfort it brings,
Ask my heart what it sings.
A tune so full of mourn,
Who’d live,
Yet never be born?

Please leave me now,
Time grows short,
You’ll surround me soon,
And kill me for sport.

I’ve outlived my term,
I’ve played my part,
You’ll not shed a tear,
When you tare out my heart.

But as they lift it on high,
The moon will shine,
In the bloody light.
You see,
It’s not the end of the night.

I’m running now,
Pounding fast,
But loosing might.
The sun must hide from the chill of my doom.
Don’t stay,
The Dream begins soon.

Bahamut 09-21-2001 07:34 AM

A thing
A thing digs
Inside my already corrupted and defiled mind
A thing of distant, crystal clear memory
Visions of an incomplete past
So incomplete, yet so vivid
Pieces altogether, yet it misses a piece
My mind grows weak, frail now
Due to all torture brought to it
Bloody and bashed, my mind
Only knowing this
This, thing
This memory of a past, a past that has been left long ago...

I never lost as much but twice,
And that was in the sod.
Twice have I stood a beggar
Before the door of God!

Angels-twice descending
Reimbursed my store-
Burglar! Banker-Father!
I am poor once more!

Brotherhood


In a New World. In a new time.

New people, old things gone. Ruins of stone. Not left alone. Twisted thoughts. Left alone.

People running to fires. Sirens going off, up and down the streets. A garden of Life, destroyed by hate.

We are all part of a brotherhood. United. Undivided. Standing against anything that stands in our way.

Take a walk through your thoughts. See what your answer really is. What chance can we take? What voice can illuminate an answer.

An new light is seen, by one, by thousands. Brotherhood is united. All across a nation.

Take a walk through your thoughts. See what your answer really is. What chance can we take? What voice can illuminate an answer.

People running to fires. Sirens going off, up and down the streets. A garden of Life, destroyed by hate.

You have to kill to stay alive.

In a new World. In a new Time.

Indeed!

Here is one I like alot, hard to fowllow,but I like it:

Chance:


He don’t know who he is. He don’t know what he is doing. He dose not know what it means to go.

He dose not know when the lighting crashes. He doesn’t understand. He doesn’t know he is building his cage.

----------------------------------------------- I can go back. Should I? Is it really that big a deal? Here is my chance to change the course of my time. Here is my chance to keep it the same. I can go back, would I ever?

The Dreams mean something. My course was chosen. I can go back, it is not to late. Here is my chance. Here is my chance.

It wide open, the pros, the cons, the plus, the minus. My course, my chance. The Dream is a Province. All the series of the dreams , all the time thinking, here it is, wide open.

My course, my chance. My Honor, my emotion. My Hate, my loneliness. My Love, its not there.

The Dreams mean something. My course was chosen. I can go back, it is not to late. Here is my chance. Here is my chance.

4 Years, maybe not five. To little time to ponder upon. Still not too late. The place, the prison, seems welcoming.

Tears of memory’s stream down into the river of time. Tears of memory’s make there own ocean. The Dream, happens. Nothing more then thoughts says they. Its something more.

Its something more

Its something more.

The Dreams mean something. My course was chosen. I can go back, it is not to late. Here is my chance. Here is my chance.

Broken Dreams, crumble too the dust. Dusk fades in, as I ponder again. Stay says my honor, go says my Depression. Say the prayers. Look ahead of you, See what will happen. I have not that knowledge.

Ponder the Dreams, There is a Chance, all this is in one night.

Rest.

The Dreams mean something. My course was chosen. I can go back, it is not to late. Here is my chance. Here is my chance.

BAH! On page THREE!!

Silent Fall

Cool days and cold night, I can hear sounds from miles away, in Silent Fall.

Silent Fall has come to take me away. Silent Fall has come to take the stress away. I can hear the coyote’s in there pack, miles off. Yet it sounds so close. The Chain of dogs communicating, I can hear, in Silent Fall.

Bleak nights, Bleak starlight night. I stare about the fields, crops blowing in the whispering winds. Rain threatens to fall. Clouds overwhelm the sky.

Cool days and cold nights, I can hear sounds from miles away, in Silent Fall.

Winter is around the corner. Bringing Ice and Chill winds. But its Silent Fall now.

Bleak star light nights. Moon shining through. Birds frolic in the light air. Animals jump and play, in silent fall.

Silent Fall is the time of youth. Silent Fall.

Cool days and cold nights, I can hear sounds from miles away, in Silent Fall

Water flows freely. The waves splashing together. In Silent Fall. All along the grass it goes, flowing freely. And the Grass Grows.

Cool days and cold nights, I can hear sounds from miles away, in Silent Fall

Kaz 09-29-2001 03:56 PM

I stand outside
In the cold night air
My breath freezing
Alone, unwanted
Unknown in the darkness
I stand there silently
Trying to find what I have lost
What have I lost?
I do not know
Did I ever know?
I do not remember
Memory like a shattered mirror
Broken, senseless
Fragments here and there
Pictures flashing across my mind
A little boy, dark eyes pleading
Staring at me from the fogs of the past
Who was he? Who is he?
I do not know
All I know is that I do not know
Anything, everything
Nothing, not even my name
I stand alone in the darkness
Nameless, friendless, nothing
I am nothing
But was I ever something?
Memory, a shattered mirror
Cutting deeply
I cannot remember, I cannot forget
I try to remember what I once was
But it eludes me, all I see
Is fragments, scrambled, nonsensical
I am forgotten, alone, nameless
Lost in darkness

Oki, fine. I've been scolded into posting, so if you don't like my poems, it's not my fault. hmmff. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif

Silence in a big noise
No color in the sunset
Rain from a blue sky

Pain hidden within a smile
Laughter with no sincerity
Life has no substance

Thunder without a sound
Words without meaning
Tears with no place to go

So much sadness and sorrow
Pent up for so long
No one to share this burden with

All alone.

OK. Here's a few more from one of my 'blue' periods...

Who are you? Where have you been?
Have I found a new friend?
Do I trust you? Do I dare?
Just how much do you really care?
I'm afraid to ask, but I want to know.
Do I lead or should I follow?
Is this a puzzle, a game, a dance
or do we really have a chance
at something wonderful?
Your cryptic words . . . Your mysterious gazes . . .
What do they hold for me? 5-5-97
---------------------------
Silence abounds
Lonliness wanders
Emptiness looms
Tears flow endlessly.
Why am I here?
What have I done to deserve this?
All I wanted was love.
All I got was heartache. 5-5-97
---------------------------
Where is love?
Why can't I find it?
Is there an end to all this sadness?
Is it so much to ask for?
Is there a method to this madness?
I just want someone to care. 5-5-97

I sit on the green grass
Hear birds singing in the woods
The trees are blossoming now
As new leaves spring from their twigs
All the world seems fresh and warm
New-born almost, peaceful
All has awakened, all has come back
Spring has come again

Now the blossoms have faded
The trees bursting with green
The sun glares down, the wind blows not
Yet I sit in the shade under the trees
Lazy in the heat, dreaming while awake
Cloudless blue sky above me
Summer following spring

The air is cool, a hint of frost
While the trees shed their leaves
I walk along a golden alley
Beneath the oaks and elms
A V of birds flying straight south
Squirrels scurrying on the ground
Apples red hanging on boughs
Waiting to fall with the wind
All is busy, preparing
Summer has ended, autumn has come

The world is coated in glistening white
Everything is quiet
There is no living thing to be seen
As clouds gather on the horizon
It seems as if the world is dead, not asleep
And I am the only survivor
I want to scream, my voice fails me
Silence everywhere
Winter has arrived, grasping the world
In its icy touch
Yet remember, that after winter
Spring always comes, and the world wakes again
And after spring comes summer, then fall
Then winter again, in a neverending cycle
That has always been and will always be.

I stand blind in darkness
I can see nothing, nothing at all
Or is there more than nothing to see?
Is there anything in this dark world?
I do not know, I cannot see
Anything, everything, all is obscured
I strain my eyes, yet all stays the same
As before - nothing
Nothing
Suddenly, a spark appears
A light! It grows, it shines
Warming eyes long unused
A friendly light, it makes
The darkness around it seem less
Then suddenly, the light disappears
The darkness closes in
Malevolent, oppressive, nothingness
I strain my eyes, I look for the light
It is gone, it won't come back
Then it strikes me, why am I waiting?
I reach out my hand, and the darkness retreats
A light grows there, weak at first
But growing stronger, unwavering
As my confidence grows
The darkness is now
No more than that
Simply a place where the light does not reach
Do not wait for a light in the darkness
Make your own light shine for you

love can be a butterfly flying, tilting, toward all directions and it sees the beauty in itself and in the world...

Ye gods, I'm beginning to feel like poetry is coming out of my ears!

I stand in an empty gray world
All is dead, all is gone
No life, no song or laughter here
No sunshine and no nightfall
Even the sky is a flat gray
Muffling sounds, killing emotion
I stand there, time does not pass
There is nothing, nothing here
Then a spark appears from grayness
Grows, bringing warmth and light
To a cold and empty world
It shines, it glows in many colors
Sparkling, whizzing through the air
I stare at this thing in wonder
As it dances, whirls and spins
Bringing hope to hopelessness
Bringing color to the grayness
I cannot help it, I reach out
To touch the light
A voice inside me tells me no
Yet I do not listen
As my fingers touch the spirit
It seems to pop it disappears
Leaving a faint cry
swallowed by the gray sky
I stare at where the light once was
It is gone, forever gone
I have destroyed it, irrevocably
I am doomed, doomed to exist
For always in this dead gray world
I scream no, yet the sound
Is killed by the hopelessness
I cannot leave, I cannot die
I cannot even hope for release
Forever

A cry in the wilderness...
Is it some wounded animal calling for help?
Is it a hungry hunter calling for death?
Is it a wolf calling for its mate?
No, it is me crying out in anguish.

Tears' Fountain

When you feel unaware, lost, out of place
Walking toward a path, a simple straight line
Looking ahead, seeing a structure, ancient, old, magnificent
Pleasing to thine eyes, soothing to your emotions
You see and stay awhile, beside the Tears' Fountain

(Wolfgir)- When a bright future shines ahead
Never lacks luster, stable and sturdy
Until one is lured away by forgetfulness
The other, losing the other, hurt, you walk aimlessly, but in a straight line
You arrive and stay awhile, beside the Tears' Fountain

(Ryan)- When someone you hold dear, someone you hold freely
Wanders away, never realizing the affection offered to her, or ignorance it is
It never did work out like a well-oiled machine in the first place
Running in circles, then going in a straight line, you start to see, start to be enlightened
You strive to stay awhile, beside the Tears' Fountain

This is where the rainbow ends, where the pot of gold lies
The end of all tragedy and of grief
Peace and serenity is all that is seen
Plus a few, and a little more of the unknown
Tears' Fountain attempts to focus a lost soul, into the right direction.

The one with the ( ) are the stanzas I based it on their experiences. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif
