I have several poems, but I'll just post it all in one

Poems
by Curt Smith “JLink”

“No I won’t” 12/9/98

You won’t be the chain that drags me along
Towards the unstricken love road of harmony.

No I won’t be the chain that pulls you to me.
Why can’t you understand
That these feelings keep running in my head?

Just -think- about the world we could have.

“Untitled” (note:unfinished) 12/9/98

Don’t place me in your pocket
like a new found penny
Or drag me down through
your own little world
Where the love for each other
is just a mask of hate
It feels like a place I used to know
A place where I will never go

“Send and Receive” 9/9/98

on the verge of releasing a thought
your mind targets a receiver
send away, and fear nothing
for your receiver will hide themselves
from the floods of
sunshine that you give
do not despair
cause there will always be
others to hear your message

your thoughts should always be shared
whether accepted or rejected

“what are You waiting for?” 9/11/98

sitting on the ledge, as the burning starts up again
about the love lost between you
and the empty plastic digits of your soul
the silent monotone ring in your ear never stops
because of what you cannot have
longing, rushing, to something that doesn’t stare back
like a painting of a countenance with no face at all
it’ll never give you answers to the questions
waiting....waiting for what? for life to catch up to you or pass you by?
what are you waiting for?
what are you waiting for?
don’t wait for life.

“Entertainer” 5/21/98

whenever I get close,
entertain to me
entertaining to you
would be much impossible
the silence-
the hate-
i hope we come to love each other

“Gladly” 5/21/98

I shake your hand-
You take it gladly-

I give you my w ord-
You take me down-gladly.

A friend as a friend,
or rather as an enemy.
Decide for you,
Should I decide,
-for you.

“Untitled” (note: unfinished as well) :P 3/30/99

this shred of life
does torment me forever
there is no greed, no self-respect
there is no happines through lovingless.

you will not strive aboe the heaps
unless you find your way
whats the point, if you aren’t being true.
the faker always leads to the fool.

Mmmm...pretty darn good, I like "Send and Recieve" and "What Are You Waiting For", the best. Have you read a few of my newer ones, titled Petals of Love and Golden Love? The old poetry topic is still there, down a little ways though, just curious.

Thanks, these poems actually took hours to write each one. A lot of thought put into each one. Eventhough I'm not the best poet in the world, it's the best way I can express. Those 2 were actually my favs as well
I also loved 'Gladly', but then again I love them all..hehe

I read both of them Adds, they were both very thought provoking. Especially the "Petals of Love" one. Good metaphor!
Anyways, here's the link for those hard of sight and can't find the link to the original Poetry: http://www.nintendorks.com/chatter/non_cgi/Forum1/HTML/001666.html

Very nice, JLink. Here's some, let me see where this goes.

A thousand miles and not a day,
Never a time when it doesn't weigh,
So heavy it is and so hard to let go.
My path is too long, but Stop? I say no.
Paradise in clouds and dreams of what's sweet.
Not now, not then, I can't bear(sp?) the heat.
One day my wings will spread like gold,
And I will forget the pain of old,
As the circle once smiles and knows that it's right,
that the dawn has come, leaving their night.
And a smile in darkness, a glimmer of white,
and in your eyes, a true loving light.
You set me free to fly, to live,
And in return, my love is all I can give.

I'll leave it at that for now. Here's some Dave Matthews:

Best of What's around:
Hey my friend, It seems your eyes are troubled.
Care to share your time with me?
Would you say you're feeling low and so
a good idea would be to get it off your mind.
See you and me, have a better time than most c an dream, have it better than the best,
So can pull on through whatever tears at us,
Whatever holds us down, and if nothing can be done,
We'll make the best of what's around.

To Fez boy: Hee, hee, I like that one . Were you the person who wrote this in the other poetry thread?

"Roses are red, violets are blue.
Most rhymes rhyme but this one doesn't."

If so, that was a good one, too. In case you can't tell, I don't care much for what most people consider to be poetry, but I do like wierd goofy stuff .

SKYY

The useless names
the tragic thoughts
the soft white noise
in your head no more

swim the sky
sink the day
forget the norm
in your arrested sores

you'll try to see the pain
in your own...you're own useless way
no one cares
when you've lost all you could find

close your eyes and sleep
don't wake up for me
silk like those stained sheets
clinging onto me

you know you didn't wanna end
you know we didn't have any time to mend
those lost nights...the sad twisted swirls of peppermint

when you lost my mind
i knew i was in for a long ride...

---

Wow..wasn't that a pillar of happiness! You can't tell, but I'm really happy. I (for some reason) can't seem to write about happy things...go fig.

I came to burn the sky and tear away the beauty that it sews

You!? Happy!!? WTF? j/k I can't write about really happy things either. And what was with you replacing your posts with "oops", I thought you were doing like Tal and preparing to die. Well, you're back now, at any rate. Here's more DMB:

Two Step

Say, my love, I can to you with best intentions
You lay down and give to me just what I'm seeking,
Say love, you drive me to distraction.
Oh, hey my love, do you believe that we might last
A thousand years
Or more
If notfor this, our flesh and blood
It ties, you and me right up, tie me down.
Oh well.
Celebrate we will, cause life is short but sweet for certain.
We climb on two by two, to be sure these days continue.
Things we cannot change,
Change.
Why would I want to change it?


If any one has any money, buy the DMB "Crash" CD, if just for that song, with the music to it it has an orgasmic intensity. Umm, n/m, it's just really, really good, listen to it.

Oops

I love DMB neverClear! They probably in top 3 bands for me
BTW here's my top 5 Bands list..it's changed
#1. The Smashing Pumpkins
#2. Creed
#3. DMB
#4. Everclear
#5. MB20
Anyways.. Here's a song from

Creed titled "Illusion"

The sun rises to another day
My constitution keeps changing
'Til it slips away
So I lie awake and stare
My mind thinking, just wandering
Is anybody there?
Should I stay or go
Should I sleep or stay awake
Am I really happy or is it all
Just an Illusion
Sitting in my room now
Hiding thoughts
Just hoping one day I'll get out
I hear a voice call my name
Breaking trance, so silent
So I can stay the same
Should I stay or go
Should I sleep or stay awake
Am I really happy or is it all
Just an illusion
Wait now, many things left unsaid
This life remains the same
But I change
I try to fool myself in bel ieving
Things are going to get better
But life goes on
Should I stay or go
Should I sleep or stay awake
Am I really happy or is it all
Just an Illusion

Standing alone, high above the land,
Best if you should be there, taking her hand.
Saying the words that bring always light,
the only true way to keep her all right.
Tears and sunbeams and all that is dear,
if for one moment she could lose all her fear.
A path never winding,
And a light, never blinding,
To open her eyes as wellas her heart.
But, for me, I play a brief part.
What will I be when she's gone in her life.
Skulking, searching, dreaming my wife.
Caged hopes fly, and the waking man dreams,
Knowing this world is not as it seems.
But never will he put down his stone,
Not before he's before the Throne,
And should it survive, to go back again,
the work is long, and when over, what then?

Never say never, my friends.
