Hi guys!!! It's been a while since I posted, but I wanted to say that i'm back and the poetry juices are a-flowin' again!!

Much love to you all! Here's my latest, about common day occurrences - enjoy!



It seems like an eternity
Since you went inside.
Click, the door shut.
And you had your salvation.
While I,
I burnt and wept and writhed.
Hoping I could hold myself together, waiting for you.
The pain you gave me seemed for a moment, unbearable, uncontainable.
And then, my wait was rewarded.
There you were, a picture of calm, as unruffled as the ocean on a sunny day.
And it was my turn
To attain salvation.

I came into this thread all set and ready to ridicule a noob, but by golly that was a pretty good poem in light of its inspiration.

Kudos.

Same.

Was itching to rip into a rhyming noob poem.

I thought that poem was a bit of a whinging emo rant... then You told us your inspiration, and suddenly its genius!

Good work!

Glad I'm not the only one reminded of the Thundercats.

Is this from the Bible, John 3:16? or was it Paul 4:20?

You walk alone. Always remember, any moment may be your next. Try it as a haiku maybe? The lyrics suck but its got a good beat. :)
