"Poetry corner"

The idea behind this place is that instead of starting your own thread with one poem they can all go in here instead.
Here is then, a place for your all your word's of beauty, anger, love, disappointment and anything else you care to add.

Strange how a couple of letters changes how you look at something.

Gorgeous Red Hair

Oh how I long to have you here,
To hold you in my arms.
I’m sure I’d be able to win your heart,
If I show you my sweet charm.

I love everything about you,
From your gorgeous reddish hair,
To you eyes and that great smile of yours.
For you I really care.

I wish that things were different,
I’ve tried to convince the powers that be.
I wish you weren’t with that lucky guy,
But instead you were with me.

If only things were different,
Our lives would be such fun.
I’d give you all that I can give.
My goddess Alyson.

Hot from the mind of flockhart my newest piece written within the last 10 minutes out of sheer frustration.

The girl who wouldnt get help

We talk all the time
About her life and mine
And our problem's with life and such thing's
But despite what i do
I can't help or get through
That you can't do it all on your own

I offer suggestions
Solutions and confession's
I can only try and help
But she says " i can cope
while i try i've got hope"
Can't you see you're not alone

You don't have to hope
Or struggle to cope
Because you're not alone
There's a whole world out there
Somebody will care
You only need ask for help

I can feel it
I can feel it oozing
I can feel it
I can feel it dripping
I can feel it
I can feel it slouching
I can feel it
I can feel it drumming
I can feel it
I can feel it eating
I can feel it
I can feel it gnawing
I can feel it
I can feel it devouring
I can feel it
I can feel
I can

I thought it might make it sound unbalanced. Oh well i'll see what the next person thinks.

Very good - though you could've left out the 'and' in the last line - would mean the same and stick to the rythym structure.

Another Ashman Special:

Together Torn

We started out in love together,
I was sure that it would last.
But things were keeping us apart,
Those days went by so fast.

Seemingly those days of agony,
Now go by awfully slow.
I feel lost without your love now,
I really just don’t know.

When you said we had to end,
You told me you still cared.
Inside I was utterly wrecked,
My love for you I shared.

I care for your warm company,
I’m dreaming of your touch.
I never thought that I could long,
For somebody and so much.

Tell me if you like!

My Baby

She’s my one
My own
She owns my soul
My everything, my one and all
My only, my girl
I’ll always be here
She’ll never be lonely
She’s everything I ever wanted
Nothing’s ever came close
But she’ll break my heart
When she grows up
Cause I won’t be her world
And she’ll leave
And I’ll be left
Thankful she was mine
If only for a little time
I don’t deserve you
No-one ever could
I should hide you away
They don’t deserve you either
If I could capture this feeling
And sell it in bottles
I could give you the life you deserve
My baby
My one, my whole, My soul

I'm going to post something very different to my normal stuff, it doesnt rhyme, it has no structure and i wrote it in 5 minutes about an hour ago after being inspired by the ginger one.
Feel free to rip it to shreds.

For All Time

I would protect you till the end of time but the favour is not returned. I would love you until my heart stopped beating but the favour is not returned. I am like a dog who fights for his masters saftey but the favour is not returned. I would be your friend when you are alone but the favour is not returned.
I am unprotected, unloved and alone, i will be empty inside for all time, until you decide to return the favour and because of this i will hate you for all time.
