Heathcliff Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 I had a dream and wanted to write. Nightmare I dreamed that I was underground I saw a station like an oil-stinking stone box of people, I wanted to die and sure enough, it caught fire. This isn't what I wanted. There is no sunlight down here But there is fire and the platform exploded into flame like a dragon breathing out, Did I cause this? My mum and dad were close by, Telling me to go up high and join my sister and my brother, And take a taxi, to go to some other dream. Morpheus can go to hell, I suffer his prescrpition well, I would smash the keyboard up And grind to dust my coffee cup. Link to comment
Reader Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 (edited) Hope this is okay. I used to write poetry when I was younger. I like how you can express feelings in a different way through poetry and how you almost have to think deeper on how you feel to express yourself clearly in poetry. Well, clear to the person writing 😊 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bittersweet isn’t the word I would say A symbol instead I’d have to make up Perhaps the sun on a bright day But the rain comes to interrupt The rain is really a reminder Of dark thoughts of where I could be One comment from him or her And I’m cold, as rain drops on me I’ll take the rain and the thunder Because eventually it’ll help me grow An umbrella shields those who stand under And it’s how my love will show The rain is your tears crashing down l could drown standing too close I am not the reason for your frown But I am a result from your woes You smile and cry when I appear You hug me nice and tight You say you’re so glad I’m here I hug you with all my might I thought the others selfish and weak I wonder now if they just knew If they saw a future peek Of the tricky balance that would ensue Edited October 29, 2018 by Reaper Link to comment
Heathcliff Posted November 10, 2018 Author Share Posted November 10, 2018 LET'S GO EEVEE In the town where I was born Back one million years ago I saw a golden field of corn Come on, let's go, Eevee. I walked in the pathetic wood Not as big as it could be, The ruins and the false plane-field I just need you with me. The yellow plastic fisherman In his scruffy mackintosh Like the chip-shop sentinel, Let us both go back there. Let me throw your Pokeball And get you out where you can help Where a wild fear appeared! And we as one would fight it Like a guard-dog Pokemon, I click my fingers, tell you "heel" I need a fiction, like you, girl, To keep me off from what I feel. Link to comment
Heathcliff Posted November 19, 2018 Author Share Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) With apologies to Elton John. This is about King Arthur. CANDEL IN THE WIND Goodbye Arthur Knight Though I never knew you at all You stood up fierce and fearful When most of us just crawl You came up out of nothing And your legend covers sky and ground All that history has to say Is that Guinevere slept around. And it seems to me, You lived your life like a candel in the wind. Never here to see the sunrise, when peace set in; And I would have liked to know you, but only 'cause I'm pissed. The truth is, Arthur, you don't really exist. Life is sometimes shit I always feel, I feel I fail; What was it like When Galahad brought back the Holy Grail? And even when he did, Surely that was not the end- Relics don't help you If you're without a friend; And it seems to me, You lived your life like a candel in the wind. Never here to see the sunrise, when peace set in; And I would have liked to know you, but only 'cause I'm pissed. The truth is, Arthur, you don't really exist. So when it came that Arthur Looked Mordred in the eye He knew for certain That this was the time to die; And surely when you drop Do you realise what will be? We'll tell your story endlessly, On Radio and TV And it seems to me, You really failed, Where was this gorgeous place? Where was this wonderful kingdom, Are you a disgrace? Your perfect country isn't here. Everything is wrong. Your candel burned out long before I could finish this song. Edited November 19, 2018 by Heathcliff Link to comment
