Are you a poet and don't know it?

[irishlops]

There has been art threads, baby threads, study threads, so now theres a poem thread!!
Now now.. dont groan, Its not boring like alot of people think, so your fingers ready and get sharing.

Heres is one I wrote yesterday.. I im not very good but I like to do it anyway.

Me, myself and I.

One day I went off
Treading soft
To look for me.

Through fields
over fences
under benches

In stables
On power line cables

I made camp under a lamp
where it was damp.
But did not see me.

Continuing on,
Feeling conned
I looked for myself
In the shadows
Places I coud not show

Shying away from windows
Hearing a noise I froze

It was just my head
Myself was Mislead

Through waste land
kicking a can

Crows calling
Blaming

Trees creaked
A fox shrieked.

Looking for myself failed
I decised to bail.

Glancing about for I,
I saw it on a mirror
stairng back,
dead, lifeless, mad, dull
Crying out like a sea gull

On the way
I did not say
I do not know
Me Myself and I.

I am me and I am proud. I can be fun. I can be short tempered. I tend to say what I think and others be darned. I flirt and don't care what others think.


I am me and I am shy. I can pretend to be out there. I tend to put on a show and eventually let people see all of me. If they don't it's because I just don't feel it is the right thing for me. I can be a clown.


I am me and I am a control freak. I have to be in control. I don't like things changing from what I have planned. I bounce back and run with it. I plan things down to the smallest detail.


I am me and I am selfconcious. I know that I am not ugly but I don't think I am that great to look at. I know that certain things about me are very attractive. Then there are others that just eww. I am a plain girl.


I am me and I am a dare devil. I love to push my limits. If it scares me I have to do it. I don't think of getting hurt. I just love the thrill.

i haven't writtin anything in a LONG time. . . but here is one from back when i was in middle school (like 8th grade i think) that i always kinda liked in a dark way:

the sun may set,

the moon may come,

the stars will come out to play,

and in the darkness you will run,

from the turning of the day,

you will run from dusk to dawn,

like a timid little fawn,

away from the fears tucked inside of you,

yet you fail to tell me who,

as you cry a single tear,

your thoughts and dreams become a fear.

All your poems are wonderful!!!!!
