First of all, let me apologies for any rules I may have broken, or the fact that I have been pretty sloppy in the placement of my poems. I kind of rushed into this thinking I could get along, though it seems there's more to this site than posting poetry and having done with it. Some posts and poems may be repeated, this is what I apologize for.
OK, so about me? Well I'm filled with unrequited love, mental health issues and constantly reflect a cynical attitude to the world and everything in it...Except for words...I love them. Though I tell you these things, as if they could be something bad, I need them, they are who I am. I think the best way to describe myself would be to quote words from an Alkaline Trio song...
"Thoughts are the shadows of feelings;
Always darker, emptier, simpler.
I don't care if they're fake or real;
I just thank them for showing up at all.
I Have black periods, who does not?
But they do not have me.
They are not a part of illness;
But a part of my being.
What am I saying?
I have the courage to have them...
At 4 o'clock in the morning.
This sucks."

My Poetry

Resonating beauty in some paralelled desire, in the coldest of moments I leapt into the fire. I took on the demons and fought for angels sake, I crossed the river styx and took the sword from the lake. But all these trials fo0 lines, 1 comment, September 21

A flower to replace the one I had lost

Were drifting away, aimlessly we wonder out into a sea of loneliness.
Going no where together we shared it all too fast and no there’s nothing left.16 lines, 2 comments, April 27 -
They meddle and they mix, to make your life better, but little do they know, that with each and every letter; they tear down this castle made of cards so no longer can the bards, boldly sing their song, and write of heroes, l4 lines, 2 comments, April 26

hmmmmmmm : Congrats! on April 26, 2008Congratulations on the win. I really enjoyed reading it, I'm a fan of short poems as I think it's harder to get your point across using less words. I hope to read more of your work in the near future. Thanks again.
