Anarchy's Red

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Although that's cliche
Isn't it true?
When the world sinks to quiet
And everything sleeps
Let's start a riot
Since anarchy seeps
  Into our minds
  Into my heart
  Into strong things that bind
  And make you wake with a start
While the world lies in slumber
The great mind awakes
Conspirators brew thunder
And cultists charm snakes
Anarchists lay new plans
Of freedom and soul
Before government bans
Simply the birth of a foal
New Life may feel healthy
But not to a fiend
Suppressors are stealthy
But their blight had to have seemed
  Oddly suspicious
  And sometimes quite brusque
  Madly sacreligious
  And even without rhyme
But no crazed thought compares
To the fact that you're hot and dares
  To speak out
    And shares
The soft thought to reach
Like a first kiss on a beach
  To speak out
    And teach
What love can be
And though no one may yet know it
Many will one day see
That beauty and love don't always have to fit
Sometimes I feel confused
And now my heart jumps, skips some beats
  Was I fool to believe
    Everything sleeps?

    awesome.

    I really like it. A lot of people really don't like love poems, because they're so hard to do right, but i think at some time all of us have managed to write one that really says the proper thing, without just corny rambling. I really like it because it seems real... It doesn't sound like you're trying to be romantic, just that you're writing out your emotions, which i think is what poetry is all about. I agree with Fromtheheart140, that was my favorite part, too.

    Very Good

    It was deep and emotional. Whatever girl you wrote this for must have had a special place in your heart. It was just so......pure. Can you describe a poem like that? I'm not quite sure. :-)
    I loved this part:
    " Oddly suspicious
    And sometimes quite brusque
    Madly sacreligious
    And even without rhyme"

    It put a smile on my face. I love it when people through in something like that.
