Wisdom, Veritas -> Freedom, justice? We'll see

Right, so I am not a big story writer. But this is my *first* one.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Might add more one time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No number rating :P

Wisom, Veracity - 29.03.2005

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sons of Wisdom, time to wake

 

 

 

Snow from winter̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s slumber shake

 

 

 

From your shoulders, slim and sharp

 

 

 

Awakened by the angel̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s harp

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ignored you were by ignorant blind

 

 

 

Your bones were sharper than their mind

 

 

 

Clouded eyes refused to see

 

 

 

Your torment and your agony

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But now your time is drawing near

 

 

 

Repay the anger and the fear

 

 

 

Gilded chariots carry your wrath

 

 

 

And diamond-stud your epitaph

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The wisdom suffering made clear

 

 

 

Flows from your face in golden tears

 

 

 

To knowledge impart on ears of lead

 

 

 

Deafer than the decayed dead

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Daughters of Veracity, aid your brothers

 

 

 

Impetuous spawn of your dearest mother̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s

 

 

 

Delicate flowers with an iron core

 

 

 

You̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢ve fought that battle long before

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jaws wired shut with rust

 

 

 

Insides that have turned to dust

 

 

 

Upon your age-old grave you may

 

 

 

With your bloodied brothers lay

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And those mortals will never know

 

 

 

The pain you hid beneath the snow

 

 

 

And those mortals dare not ask

 

 

 

What lies under Beauty̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s mask

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Untitled (From You) - 21.05.2005

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hand her a flower,

 

 

 

Watch the petals, fallen.

 

 

 

Let the sun shine through,

 

 

 

The black curtains drawn.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The rapturous voice,

 

 

 

From the body so marred.

 

 

 

Fair smooth flesh,

 

 

 

Burnt, cracked, charred

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A white pure dove,

 

 

 

In a cage, trapped, dying.

 

 

 

A lost young child,

 

 

 

Impurity, from lying.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A once flowering field,

 

 

 

Now drowns in mud.

 

 

 

And the glistening snow,

 

 

 

Is stained with blood.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A little morbid eh....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WR - 03.12.2005

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wrists are nothing but bone and skin.

 

 

 

Arms long and lean.

 

 

 

Only a little bit left,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A little more to go.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Legs are thin and weak,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Little more,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bit more to whittle away.

 

 

 

Destruction can be such a beautiful thing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chiseled and aware,

 

 

 

The sheathing giving away and disappearing

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Summoning the courage to do it.

 

 

 

And the knife falls to the floor.

 

 

 

To show the beautiful structure underneath

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Escape - 09.03.2006

 

 

 

Escape this world;

 

 

 

escape this place.

 

 

 

See the tear stream down her face.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Giving in to perfection.

 

 

 

Fallen prey of destruction.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So much sorrow with many regrets.

 

 

 

Promises made, but never kept.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Searching for comfort,

 

 

 

longing for peace.

 

 

 

Her silent scream will never cease.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Escape this world of much disgrace.

 

 

 

One last time, escape this place.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You play with chance,

 

 

 

like Russian roulette.

 

 

 

Replacing one habit for another.

 

 

 

You know this life won't last forever.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So, there you went,

 

 

 

you opened up to find resolution,

 

 

 

to make amends.

 

 

 

But, secretly knowing this will never end.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For Shiva

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Freedom, justice? We'll see - 31.03.2006

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lock me up

 

 

 

Throw away the key

 

 

 

It̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s just my life

 

 

 

I don̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t need

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If it makes you feel good

 

 

 

If it makes you feel better

 

 

 

To sit there and lie

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s pointless for me

 

 

 

A waste of my energy

 

 

 

To fight for my life

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s not about what̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s right

 

 

 

It̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s your competition and sin

 

 

 

When you win

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It makes not difference

 

 

 

If it̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s a lie

 

 

 

If it̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s justified

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Will it be your word?

 

 

 

Or mine?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Never - ever write something for you best friend at 06:33 in the morning! It will end up like this.

Eyh, comment please:p

 

It was a good poem, i sort of got it...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Something about seeing your mistakes after you die or something like that I guess.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thats the only thing when writing poetry, either sacrifice the rhyme to save the story or the story to save the rhyme.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I still like it though

Well I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

Writed it a few months ago, so it is a little rusty.

I really like it, in fact I'm printing out a copy for my english teacher.

Pm me if you need anything proof-read, I may not be very good, but I am always willing to help.

A Seal Clubber is me!

A Oxygenarin is me!

yea and im still all like.....what???? i didnt get it....very complicated. y cant it be simple like, "violets are red and roses are blue, i like chicken nuggets and so do u" easy to understand, and it gots a ring to it

You could probably improve the overall rhythm and express the ideas better if you dropped the rhyming scheme and wrote it in free verse. The meter is a little awkward, and it doesn't flow as well as it could. It seems that you sacrificed some of the semantic value of the piece just to get a beat and rhyme that was "close enough".

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you redo it, I think you'll see some of the mistakes you made, and you could do it better the second time.

Sure you can. :D Just don't steal it! :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And Zonorhc, I writed it last year, don't remember the exact(sp?) date. Can see if I can re-write it sometimes. Might add more.

 

the second one gives me the creeps.

Its not morbid as such as a statment of what I see when see when I visit my Nan's.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But anyway It was still good, I like how it flowed while I read it. Either you are really luckly, really gifted or sent alot of time doing that.

Do you really need to be inserting your ideas into other people texts, but please do not continue flaming each other, it would be terrible to see someones work polluted by flaming. Just say you like it or disliked it and why. Wishfish0 has a point though people who are not well focused on poetry woudl not understand this.

Well I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts.

First little poem this year. And a little slow to get out 'For Shiva' art.

 

Damn your pessimistic. I eagerly await the additions.

I'm a bit biased because I write poetry almost purely in free verse (I play to my strengths), but I agree.
