Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Looking in the mirror: 19 of 201
Mirror, Mirror in my room,Dare I look to see my gloom?When I look, I see this girl,Trying to spin, trying to twirl.But, there is a roadblock you see,She's tired, she's fat, this girl is me.When I look, I feel disgustNot smart, not sweet, nor robust.Around are portraits of who I used to beYoung and thin, confident and free.But...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: I used to be: 4 of 40
I used to be young,I used to be thin.I used to be witty,I used to be without sin.I used to be charming,I used to be fun.I used to be outgoing,I used to lay out in the sun.But, those days are over,They no longer exist.The way I was,Is now just a list.I've gotten olderand do not recognize.This person I've become,Is no longer an...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Humorous: 57 of 478
Watching my WeightWhat's the point in watching my weight,I look around at everything I ate.I am a thin person trying to get out,But, my willpower leaves me many doubts.Get out of my face with these models nothing but bone,They would look just like me, if they lived in my home.Parading up and down the catwalk in clothes that d...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Out of bounds: 7 of 35
Out Of BoundsA lot of things are out of bounds,Stealing, cheating or yelling sounds.It depends on the person, of what this means,You lose your life, hopes and dreams.Out of bounds can refer to a lot,It's about how you feel that thickens the plot.Have we lost what is true,No, It just relies on me and you.Out of bounds is limit...

I'll throw my heart to the wind and let it fly My love is so pure, it will reach the sky To the heavens on wings it will soar You will feel it too, as it knocks on your hearts door With my gentlest touch upon your skin You feel my warmth as it flows within Knowing you are the only one for me I will embrace you and the...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: This mess: 3 of 8
School is out and all I see, Is this mess of clothes waiting for me. The kids are bored and wont settle down, The house looks like one big Mess Town. Toys on the floor, dirty clothes on the bed, They haven't listened to a word I said. An overflow of their rooms trickling down the stairs, I feel as if I am the only one ... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Mirrors: 35 of 81
When you look in the mirror,What do you see?When I look in the mirrorI see just me.No one special, no one greatNot a size six, not a size eight.I don't like what I see in this reflection,I turn away with a quick reaction.I miss the person I used to be,Because who I am now, is a mystery.I once was outgoing, slim and witty,Now ...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Money humor: 7 of 15
I get paid every two weeks,In my bank it goes.But, when I go to use itIt's all gone, that really blows.I work hard everyday,to have money to spend.I never get to do much,the bills they have no end.A second job is out of the question,I am tired from the firstbut, when i need to blow off steam,It's like a need for water to quen...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: My heart: 86 of 152
You came from somewhere, Just out of the blue.You struck my heart like lightening, I didn't know what to do.A handsome man, with eyes of green.A beautiful smile, that's always seen.A caring man, witth a heart of gold.A warm touch, I love to hold..When I am with you, time stands still.I'll be there when you eed me, with all of...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Mystery man: 12 of 21
Mystery ManIt was night and time to sleep,I closed my eyes to count the sheep.I found myself in a place unclear,Wondering why my sub-conscious was here.I looked all around and what did I see?But, a unfamiliar young man standing before me.His face in a shadow,he was dressed all in white,The perfect build, the perfect height.So...
