ShamikShow poetry

The first poem written by me was in the 10th grade when I was about 14-15. I didn't write poetry after that for the next four years. However, one evening I decided to write a poem and it did actually come out as poetry! That night, I got into this poetic frenzy and wrote around 23 poems. Poems emanated from midnight to 6 am and from 8 am to 11 am. My stepmom thought that I had gone crazy.I could even speak poetry! And not just abab rhymes but different forms. I had drunk the milk of Paradise.

A few months later I tore most of them. Only three left were from that night; that too accidentally because they were not in the notebook I tore. I tore them out of guilt because I thought that I had written them because I wanted to get popular and all rather than having people appreciate my heart. Fortunately the best poem I wrote that night is still 'extant'(The Struggle). I then got into depression and didn't write a single poem for a year.Quite a lot were written after that and somehow they are better than before(hopefully).

    nothing artistic on my author page...just a collection of quotes, thoughts and musings.

    Interesting ... but quite long. Is this actually poetry or an artistic collection of quotes, thoughts, and musings? Regardless, thank you for sharing it with us!

    I enjoyed a visit to your home page and thought I'd tell you I was here--A thoughtful place, with a certain calm I like to see. Before I go, I want to read that column. It piqued my curiosity.
    (Noticed peaked in there somewhere. Check it out?)
