Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Saying goodbye: 10 of 454
The Seasons of Love'Twas fate that deemed that we would meet,That fine and warm spring day,When hence I kissed your cherry lips,You stole my heart away.When summer's sun shone on your face,My spirits higher did soar,What we had found, I did believeWould last for evermore.Autumnal leaves turned brown and died,They fluttered fr...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Knowledge: 1 of 34
The Pool of all KnowledgeMurky waters, dark and deep,Oh, what secrets do you keep,Ease the tortures in my mind,Inner peace, help me to find.Tell me now, I have to know,Show me please, which way to go,Time is short, my heart beats fast,Let my future meet your past.Slowly in, my toe I dip,Careful, careful, must not slip!Yes, th...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Losing love: 10 of 287
Questions...How, when I once was so happy, can I suddenly be so sad,How did I end up by losing, that special person I had,How can a pain insubstantial, hurt more than if I did bleed,How do I learn to cope with, not having she whom I need.Why do I dwell on the memories, rather than looking ahead,Why does my mind keep replaying...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Soldiers: 13 of 228
Who gives thought to the soldiers,The weapons of the war,They may well end up dying,Yet may not know what for.In service to their country,They're sent to foreign lands,They do not have the right of choice,It's taken out their hands.Who gives thought to the families,The wives, the daughters, sons,Whose lives will never be the ...

The King is DeadIt was a Tuesday, summer's night,A lovely evening, warm and bright,The TV news, it brought a chill,Of shock and horror, time stood still.How I recall my mother's tears,And my confusion, childish fears,I couldn't believe how much she cried,Because some foreign man had died.At home in Graceland, far away,The Kin...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: I believe...: 4 of 54
I believe that good triumphs over evil,I believe that love triumphs over hate,I believe that good things will happen,To those who're prepared to wait.I believe in the warmth of the sunshine,That will always follow the rain,I believe in the very real pleasure,That will always follow the pain.I believe in the peace that will tr...

CathyMike had only been at the party for about half an hour, but already the cigarette smoke was going for his eyes. Why didn't it appear to be affecting anyone else? The large room was thick with the cloying fog of it. He mumbled his apologies to his surrounding company and headed for the kitchen, the back door and some fres... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Pain from love: 172 of 917
'Twas though a thorn had pricked me,When first I had a doubt,That things may not be as they should,That you may just want out.'Twas though a bee had stung me,When first I saw the sign,That love had turned sour,And you were no more mine.'Twas though a knife had plunged me,When doubt did turn to fear,Then you said you were leav...

All Powerful LoveIt brings us our greatest pleasures, inflicts the most tortuous pain,It promises fun and laughter, that life need not be in vain,We marvel how it affects us, the things that it makes us do,Yet few of us are so lucky, to find it our whole lives through.It can be a gradual process, creep up on us from afar,It c...

DeathA tangled web, my life will weave,I hope on Earth, my mark I'll leave,I hope I've not been here in vain,I hope in death, I'll know no pain.When it will come, I cannot know,As each day dawns, I have to show,That I don't fear it, never will,My body only, it will kill.A new beginning, not the end,That is the message, Christ...
