I've already had a poetry thread in the past, but the work in it was not so good. I've decided to make a new thread for some of my recent work. I'm a beginner in writing poetry, so don't be too harsh.

I'll start the thread off with a poem I wrote just a few days ago:


Fall on through the cloud


Hey, look at me
I’m talking to you my friend
Don’t ignore the shame you’re in
Brighten up and dance again

Follow up the stairs of recognition
Every word just seems to glisten
Have it in you to look up and listen
Racing up high and far
To understand your faithful mission

Love me hate me, it’s a game
Foolish lovers out they came
I know just how you feel right now
Sulking in the underground
Sulking in it, yes you are
Why don’t you come on out
And smell the dreams

Have some faith, I know you can
Nothing is easy my warm hearted friend
Love is tough and hard to sway
And ignorance will not assist
So whatever happens, know you can
Fall through any window pane
That is just not strong enough

Forging masks out of love
We all seem to do it
Recognize the voice from above
And fall on through the cloud

Love me hate me, it’s a game
Foolish lovers out they came
I know just how you feel right now
Sulking in the underground
Sulking in it, yes you are
Why don’t you come on out
And smell the dreams

Forever Forbidden



Forever, I hold your heart
In my hands, delicately
Your heart, made of glass
Always willing to break
In my hands

Look at me when I tell you
Tell you that my love
Is forever abnormal
Magnificently true
Surrounds us both
In a land of new

Everything in life
Is meaningless without you
When you’re not here
I feel like crying
When you are here
I feel like dancing

Come, dance with me
Underneath the moonlight
Tonight, you and I
Will dance the night away
Our hearts will join
And our souls will become one

Our love, like something odd
Like writings
From a magazine
Like a gleaming white sky
And snow tumbling down
Our love is
Forever forbidden


Feel free to criticize and comment!
