I have not simply because i know he would not appricate it. I like writing him love notes, but no poems. I do write a lot, but not for/to him. As i have grown up, i have found that poetry has become an outlet to me, but as i have grown up, so has my poetry.

I wrote some poems. One turned out to be pretty good, so my ex put a frame on it. But who cares, it didn't work out for us.

My husband writes poetry, and he's quite good. I think it's a talent you either have or don't.

No comment.

He was writing poetry long before he met me. Considering how badly I suck at it, I don't think I'd force anyone else to do it.

Only of the dirty limerick variety. Nothing that would qualify as romantic.

I would.

I already write lyrics and figure out melodies (I just never play them for any girl)

Nope, NEV4R! Hell I didn't even write poetry for assignments in my English classes back in grade school.

I'm not sure that's what he was going to say...

Yes. I regularly write poetry/stories/plays, so it's not like it was something out of character for me.

I wrote a funny and slightly romantic haiku once that we both still remember.

I do. Been writing since Fr. year of college (5 years). Not necessarily for the SO's, but on all sorts of aspects. Are they good? Probably not so much, but it is something I enjoy doing.

Then what's the point? :laugh:

I won't play with a girls affections that way. If they like me, it will be for who I am, not how good I am at music and lyrics.
