Poetic?
2005-06-17, 6:08 AM #1
One more word on the withered paper
One more thought straight from the mind
One more story with cryptic wording
One more poem I have signed

All these writings, what's their purpose in my life?
How do they lead me to goals for which I strive?

None of my words bring joy or heal pain
Their meanings are lost
Their purposes becoming in vain

Do they bring out another person in me?
Do they change anything in the things I see?
Or is an empty paper for the best?
Are all the words written for feelings surpressed?

I'd give you a picture
But could you then know my mind?
All the thoughts hidden on the outside
Of such a strange kind

I'd give you a statue
But would the shapes give you thought?
Such emotions so heavy
As words have once brought?

All these questions going through my head
Looking for the complex answers
To just find a simple one instead


Because a picture might say a thousand words
At least that's what they say
No image can describe a mind, a thought
With words they'll find their way

I love it. Have you ever posted/written poetry before, because that is a very pretty poem with a good message. Post back your inspiration!

I've written before, and a lot too. Even some angsty stuff, which I now think to be humorous. However, lately I've just been thinking stuff like that over, which led to this.

Well don't stop, it's quite good. I think the message is excellent, but some of the wording is slightly awkward in places (but that's probably just because English isn't your first language, which gives me all the more respect for this work that you have written).

Do you have anything else you'd like to showcase?
