My Book of Poetry

[Memory]

Oh, wow, the "As Long as You're Gone" poem really got to me. xD You are really good, ryan! ^__^ I could learn a thing or two, from you. xD

Sorry that I haven't posted any poems in a while, I couldn't think of any. Though, thanks for the comments and leaving my thread alive. ^^

Walk With Me:
Walk with me, the path of life,
to explore every bend of the road
Enjoy with me the beauty of life,
along its wonderful way

Find comfort with me, in each other's arms,
when grief crosses our path
Find strength with me, in each other's strength,
when despair lies in wait

Laugh with me, a single true laugh,
to enlighten another's distress
Cry with me, a single true tear,
to understand true happiness

Cherish with me, the wonders of life,
as they need to be preserved
Rejoice with me, in the mysteries,
of what is yet to be

Find peace with me, in each other's souls,
when the world has gone insane
Find love with me, in each other's hearts,
until this life has been fulfilled

And when the path comes to an end
I hope we can say from within
We've known the beauty of true love,
our love came from within​

Thanks Seraphia. I just wanted to try something different. ^^;

One of my friends (Whose a girl) won't be coming back, she's leaving for New York. So, I decided to make a poem for her before she goes. Tell me what you think about it.

Goodbye:
Come lay down your sweet and weary head,
My mind fears we've come to our journey's end.
But sleep now and dream of everything before.
The memories you remember are always yours.

Why do these tears spoil your face,
When I promise to see all your fears pass away.
Soon you'll open your eyes and watch them sail,
And what do you see on that horizon instead?

You might hear a familiar laugh,
Or glimpse a smile in the twilight.
Those are my ships crossing the sea,
And they're full of happy memories.

Memories carried on great ships,
With sails powered only by the love of friendship,
Cutting through the waves of time
With promises to carry you home.

Don't turn away and don't struggle,
Unbar your mind and let them surge in.
Remember feeling safe beside me,-
Remember all the good things, and try to smile again.

Let them carry you back over the deep ocean.
Underneath you can see shadows lurking,
Of ships who have fallen in time's storms.
But mine will go on because I made a promise:
To carry you between the smiles and the tears...
Whenever you wanted to come home.​

Very nice. You've inspired me to write a sad poem. xD
Keep it up! I love your poems!~

 

[Margot]

That is both sad and very cute, I'm sorry your friend has to leave but you wrote her a great poem, did you acually give it to her??? Anyways as I said it was a great poem and I loved the last verse, very cute :)

 

[Persona]

Thanks for the comments. ^^

Seraphia- I didn't give it to her yet. When she's at her last day of school, I will.

Your latest poem reminded me of this song quite a bit, particularly in the first two verses. Don't ask me why. *coughs* O_O'

Anyway, I liked it, I guess...a nice little poem about farewells between friends. I would have some recommendations for you, but I'm too sleepy to think... @_@ Ask me later. xD Keep writing and practicing, and I'm very sorry my comment is so vague.... n.n

I didn't notice that that's almost the same as this one, but it does look like it. o.o

Thanks. When you're not sleepy, feel free to comment again.

Aww there so cute i love the first one about the Stars.. ^^;

 

[Persona]

Thanks for the comment.

I've written a new one, about two days ago before our graduation at school.

Graduation Goodbyes:​

The moment slows its motion,
And as I look around this room,
I can't help but ask myself,
How could this happen so soon?

Everyone is smiling proudly,
Taking pictures and laughing together,
I know at times things seemed so slow,
But now I want this to last forever.

It's a scary yet joyful feeling,
Knowing we've made it this far,
Knowing that we'll always be friends,
No matter where we are.

Taking a last walk to the desks,
That we used to hate with a passion,
Remembering daily trips to the lockers,
In our loud, un-orderly fashion...

Now the sounds have changed,
No more high school bells will ring,
Instead the future calls our names,
And its time to discover what it will bring.

One by one we each walk up,
To receive diplomas with a smile,
Four years used to seem so long,
But honestly it only took a short while.

Suddenly our time is up,
It's time to fly from the nest,
Time to reach for the higher goals,
And to you I wish the very best.

So wipe away all the tears,
Tears of joy and parting sadness,
It's time to face the oncoming future,
And fondly remember our schools madness.​

^_^ That's a really good poem. Once I tried to write a poem about the end of school and it sucked. ><

Thanks. You can always try next year. If you continue practising in making poems, you'll get better. Everyone starts out small, remember that. ^^

Thanks for all the comments, I didn't expect that many. ^^

In The Midst of Growing:

Life is nothing more than a correction,
We are here because of wrong.
Just as we die because of neglection,
We live because we are strong.

A plant grows when it is fed,
As so does a mind.
Without mistakes a person's dead,
Or living life blind.

There's a battle everyday,
That God helps us overcome.
He tells us don't go astray,
No telling what we can become.

We live life at a cost,
And we all have growing pains.
Sometimes it seems like what we have lost,
Far outweighs what we have gained.

Sometimes it seems like what is bad,
Should have been what is good.
If I'm to fall when I am sad,
I should have never even stood.

If I'm to lay on my back,
I'm definitely going to rise.
Even though I only see black,
I'll still open my eyes.

When I look at my reflection,
I'm gonna love what I see.
I'm what is called a blessing,
Kind of a profit to be.

I've overcome so much,
In order to get where I'm going.
I can feel an angel's touch,
And it's helped me with my growing.

I have sure seen a lot,
But I haven't seen a thing.
I guarantee I won't be shocked,
What it is life will bring.

We are only scared to die,
Because of how we live.
Either we are lifted and we fly,
Or we are grounded and we give.​

Wow. Being a graduate this year, the graduation poem really stirred up some emotions inside me. That seriously sent shivers down my spine and I had goosebumps on my arms. Re-read that when your graduation rolls around, and I'm sure it will stir up some emotions inside you as well. Great stuff, Ryan. Keep it up. =]
