Post poetry on Btvs and Ats here it does'nt have to rhyme.
My favorite is blank verse half the time :hihi:
so go on post... please don't lament

I'll start ...
(going to use ep. titles)

I Only Have Eyes for You
lost in Innocence
Forever Gone
lost in Him

but I'm Smashed and Restless
there's A New Man
a Shadow Touched with Potential
 
Some more poems...

I've posted these on another board (they're real ruogh over there, anyway I fixed em' and I wanna show them off here ... I'm proud of them) again I used episode titles its a thing :hihi:

the Crush that drowns me you see
centers around a Storyteller of sorts
his eyes convey Lessons
that Never Leave Me
Touched in so many ways
I fear he'll Never Leave Me
its a Tough Love
you see Doomed
to Spiral

the Phases this man
conveys so with Passion
its no Surprise
I'm Smashed
its not Faith,Hope and Trick - ery
he's the Shadow
that Forever
leads me to this
Potential

---------------------------------------------------------

Something Blue
in the Living Conditions around here
there's a New Moon Rising
Bad Eggs all around
Doomed to Hush
with every sound
I'm The Zeppo
there are Consequences
though Dirty Girls and boys all a' round
Bad girls Helpless
to every sound
Ohh... all the Nightmares

but that's just me you see ???

Some Assembly Required
in The Pack no less withstanding
I Robot, You Jane
an Intervention not withstanding
hold on don't Lie to Me
its a Dead Man's Party
Killed By Death no less withstanding
I'm Wild at Heart you see
though I feel Doomed
not withstanding


Who Are You?
---------------------------------------------------
I Fall to Pieces
Expecting I'm at a
Dead End of sorts
I suppose it is The Price of A New World
and That Vision Thing
that leads me in a sweet Lullaby
Waiting in the Wings for Tomorrow
but Deep Down its
Why We Fight to

Not Fade Away



----------------------------------------------


pleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssssse!!!
someone else join me :bounce:
 
Those are awsome berkeled. I'm not to good at poetry though 🙁
 
Ok well i'm giving it a try but I am by no means a poet. These are lyrics from OMWF.

I'm just a poor girl don't you see
And when the music starts
There'll be nothing left of me
Everything is turning out so dark

Why can't you let it go
That doesn't make it real
And it'll grieve me 'cause I love you so
But you can make me feel

-------------
Don't know if you'd consider this one or not but I was just fooling around after and got this little one.

Does anybody even care
It's getting eerie
So you just lie there
I've got a theory

But ya thats it. Really not that good but I gave it a shot so...
 
Re:

_Spuffy_

I yearn for your body,
Your heart touched my soul,
Your taste is quite sinful,
Yet you make me whole;

I want to stay lost,
This urge to feel more,
You'r body's a playground,
I want to explore;

To resist is too painful,
My hungers quite strong,
You quench my desire,
It burns all night long,

The truth is unleashed,
Theres no one to blame,
I stand here- an ember,
But you sire the flame.

Not the greatest. Sorry- last minute. ::bsad::

Re:

From: Angel To: Riley


She's mine before all,
You can't take her away,
I've tasted her life force,
It's there that I stay,

You can fight it for decades,
You may wish me to hell,
But her heart is my property,
And I keep it quite well,

So rage in the shadow,
And deny what is true,
She still dreams of me,
While she's sleeping with you.
 
Wow. Good Poems. I can't write poems. I tried. I failed. I have ONE good one somewhere......

I'll post it when I find it.
 
This is great. Interesting, using episode titles and such.. I usually don't like poems that rhyme but yours are great NSlayMode. I've written some Buffy poems as well, mostly Faith ones, but they're just from my mind and not sure there's an obvious connection to the show.. I mean I'm not even sure you would see what it's about. Anyway I won't post them now.

Thanks hun! I like rhyme, it's fun. Not all of mine rhyme, though, but most. :tongue05: Wrote my first fan fic the other day, can't post it though- it's a little R rated.....ooops! Tee-hee!
 
Re:

~Confused~


I scream to the wind
and hear your voice
I part the rain
to see your face
You're everywhere,
yet nowhere
I cant stand, I cant be
You wont let me
I'm broken without you
I'm weak when you're mine
I've lost what was me
And whats left
is what's yours

Sorry, not really OT, and was last minute. Kinda sucks. Sorry.
 
The crystal caves
of my heart
shudder at the reality
of art
and 5 novels
for I'm cursed
stuck in the Buffyverse



a real quikie got kinda imspired but it s a dud , Iknow...
 
What would you do?
If your all alone,
and no once cares,
what would you do,
what could you do?
Who would you turn to?
I would stay here on my own,
until sweet death releases me.

There's nothing left
cos I'm all alone and want to die
but instead you just stay and cry,

Listening to the wind as it howls outside,
wising i had another life.
Maybe one day i will be happy,

I could be adopted, but i know im not,
I can see their evil in me,
their filth, their hatred and their stupidity,
it all lies in me, i have to fight it,
What else can i do.

I can't just sit here,
so what would you do?
Would you sit here or would you fight,
I would do whatever i could,
to fight the darkness as I should
and as you could!

Sorry for the badness of that poem lol!!!

^Pretty intense there hun! But awesome just the same! :spinface:
 
Re:

~My Maker~

I lost you once in Istanbul,
For years I sought you out,
My tears matured as I did,
I walked through life in doubt,

You found me in a jungle,
Trapped inside a cage,
A glance before departure,
Infected with my rage,

Years passed that I saw you,
Forever crying with your eyes,
Sorting through the drama,
I came to terms with all the lies,

And though I may forgive you,
Trust I never will forget,
That I'm a puzzle left unfinished,
And I wished we'd never met.


Okay, morbid much? I know, I know. My appologies.....
 
I remember a poem i wrote when i was little, here it is:
I am a big black dustbin.
I stand out in the cold,
People feed me rubbish,
I thinks that very bold.

Every moday mroining I'm pushed out to the gate,
I stand there util a lorry comes,
an empties all my waste.

I'm pushed back in the garden,
they start all over again,
filling me with rubbish,
until monday comes again!!!
 
am not a poet in any, way, shape or form - but here goes anyway.

Apply this to what couple you will:

Unconsciously at the back of his mind,
Eden's paradise shimmers and sighs,
Forever, yet unrealised, he'll find,
What was eternally lost trembling tries
To tear apart the mirage of her smile,

Within that woman's winding grace of walk,
Sleeps the sinuous serpents fearful beguile,
The lulled corrosive nature of her talk
Like poison softly slips inside his ear,

Truths alter, appear, change and disappear.
Yet as she wraps herself around his mind,
He only senses, cannot clearly find,
That entwined they'll uncover a flaw serpentine.

*​

There, do tell me what you think. Oh I posted this on another board and someone told me my ryhme sceme was messed up in the final stanza, so I will give you my explination: there's 'ear' and 'disappear' which mess it up - this is done on purpose as truths alter etc so does the rhyme pattern to mimic the meaning. And you'll notice the last line has one too many syllables to echo the 'flaw' spoken about in that line. the last three lines rhyme because I cant go back to every other line rhyming, that would have made the break in pattern pointless.

I in no way assume you lot are a stupid as that person, but I thought I'd just cover myself! 😉
 
Re:

Two thumb VS and Jaded. I loved them both. Love to see more!! :clap: : deal :

Okay berkled....here you go hun....

~Reality Check~

The silence I once knew is gone. Determination brings a thought. One thought becomes many, and they battle inside my mind. Good versus bad, each one knowing no limit. The good being thoughts of serene, peaceful times, the bad quite the opposite. With each battle fought the good gains strength, the bad impact. Occasionally I feel I'm a puppet, tangled in mass confusion. My strings highly vulnerable, yet I struggle in denial. A new door begins to open.....

Occasionaly I detour and procrastinate on the shoreline of thought. I dive into a sea of dreams, each one so patient to become a reality. They dance around me, urging me to focus. Focus on my journey, to the top. I promise to accomplish this someday. It's merey a difficult task, maybe a far fetched dream. But in no way impossible.........
