Poetry Game, Anyone?

KTC · Apr 29, 2005

Sweating with the realization
Of not having you.
Profuse energy
exerted in wanting
what is unattainable.
Hungry for the life
We could have had.

Next word: Empty

Paint · Apr 30, 2005

Empty eyes,
Empty smile-

She's living other's lives again.

Chaos addict,
Endless martyr-

Always in a spin.

next word: addict

KTC · Apr 30, 2005

Needs a fix
he hyperventilates
longing tender punctures
on his bruised and swollen veins.
Needs a fix
he self-annihilates
longing for normalcy
in a life mixed by chaos and fear.
Needs a fix
He super-imposes
the death he must achieve
to save him from the addict
alive in the corpuscules
of his thriving, hungry body.

NEXT WORD: Forget

wurdwise · Apr 30, 2005

You need me to do what?
Forget about it!
You want me to go where?
Forget about it.
You tell me I can
Forget about it.
Are you nuts?

Next word: want

Brainerd T. · Apr 30, 2005

repetitive motions
feelings and desires

Emotions swirling, curling
Paroxysms of paranoia
Engulfing reason beoyond control

Love abandoned
Love left
the addict

((terrible)) Hey! next word: terrible

Brainerd T. · Apr 30, 2005

OOps! Someone posted minutes before I did and I didn't know it.
I'm up to it, though:

Want

Unfulfilled desires
cresting upwards to the psyche
Visions of rapture
culminating in pleasure

Next word: enchantment

KTC · Apr 30, 2005

Magic takes me,
holds my trachea,
Gains control of my senses,
and shakes me awake.
Makes me believe
in the doors to worlds
I know to be there.
Makes me want to raise
my wings
and fly.
Magic tells me
I can do it,
Shuck aside my leaden feet
and tramp across the billowing
clouds above.
I can reach
these scattered
dreams
through the enchantment
of magic...
as it hold me tight
within its crooked
grip.

NEXT WORD: Star

Paint · Apr 30, 2005

Believe

Be the star of your own life-
Lit from within.

Rise to the joyous moment-
Awaken from sleep.

Listen to the good about you-
Ignore the bad.

Be true to your inner voice-
A loyal guide.

Always reach for the top-
You deserve it.

next word: guide

chelle21 · Apr 30, 2005

Guide you through the storm

I cannot guide you through the storm because I can't go home
No one knows who I am and it tearing my life apart, if I guide
you through the storm who's going to guide me home.

My heart is too empty now to cry these sorrow tears as my
faith cannot heal

next word: Faith

Paint · Apr 30, 2005

Faith

Faith is the absence of fear I am told.
I still have fear.

Fear of heights and mountain lions,
Financial insecurity,
mad dogs
good looking men
sleepy snakes
growing old
being alone
perverts
taking
my
child.

Faith is the absence of fear
I am afraid-
Does this make me unfaithful?

next word: unfaithful

chelle21 · Apr 30, 2005

Unfaithful Love

If every guy I meet is unfaithful how can I find true love?
When my world is ungrateful. I sit and think about the bad
days when I use to think you didn't love me now and days
when I see you, you act like a snob when the only thing
I did was try to befriend you.

You wait until I'm gone and talk about me like I'm a dog
but never knowing how truely I felt for you when you
sick the police on me saying you didn't want anything
to do with me.

You may hurt me in the past but you will never hurt
me again. I wonder why I felt for you knowing the
love wasn't true it was just an excuse to get
back at your old girlfriend accept you wasn't a
man at all you was a filthy dog. Now you got
me thinking who's going to love me? If I tried
to love again I'm afraid I might get hurt again.

Never knowing who I am is somewhere and the
past I felt to realize you where my past maybe
you where my first boyfriend but you will never
be again it took almost a year to get over you
but now I know I can move on.

Next word sorrow

alanna · Apr 30, 2005

sorrow

willowy sighs tear from my soul
as i gaze out the window
and remember.

next word: hypocrite

KTC · Apr 30, 2005

You told me it would last,
that we would watch the gloaming
in the autumn evenings.
You told me it would live forever,
the love we started in our youth.
That was before I saw
behind the veil,
Before I woke up
next to a stranger...
a hypocrite in flowery pajamas
and flaxen hair
spread out perfectly
upon a lumpy pillow
I came to know so well.

Next word: miles

wurdwise · Apr 30, 2005

If I had to measure my life
in miles instead of years
It would be the longest highway
to the nicest rest stop.

Next word. Rest

Angel-Lija · Apr 30, 2005

My heart beating
Pounding up my chest
Sweat dripping
Memories replaying
I can not rest
I can not sleep
The hells of the past
Are still haunting me
I close my eyes
And count to 3
The sweet surrender
As I fall asleep
I can finally rest
In piece

Next: memory

chelle21 · Apr 30, 2005

A Painted Memory

Let me love you until the time has come. My love for you has
painted a memory and my heart that will last forever since the
last time I saw you, our heart was at one, our love was to
strong to let go because all this time my image of you was
a painted memory. A memory I once knew, a memory that
got me wating on you until we meet again.

Let me love you until the day I die, until the sun has
come up again. Let me love you from the buttom of
my broken heart because this is me, because this is
who I am. You ask me how can I free myself from
you? But I will never free myself from you because
you where truly a angel sent from up above.

I ask God everyday what did I do to deserve this
kind of love? When my life hasn't been good or
when my childhood memory's has haunt me so?

My world was filled with anger inside but when
you brought this angel from up above. I knew
it must been love. My memory's of true love
is turning into slow motion because I'm
afraid to leave now.

I knew your love was going to be mind because
what we have is good loving. The love that makes
you sing in the rain, the love that keeps a painted
memory and your soul forever. Let me love you

until the day I die.

Next word: defind

KTC · May 1, 2005

It reaches to the blackened night
Stretching its limbs to the moonless sky
Sycamore, mounting the stratosphere
with the promise of its phosperous leaves
growing to the edges of reason.

Next word: redeem

alanna · May 1, 2005

i'm returning my thoughts
my words my actions
in the hopes that you'll give me back the
five hesitations
ten answers no
fifteen shyings
value for value
so we can start anew.

next word: abandon

wurdwise · May 1, 2005

There are groups of us
we humans
who share a certain
common denominator
of pain.

And only those people
know how a particular emotion
truly feels
I belong to several groups
One is Abandon.

I can't tell you how it feels
to be abandoned
Or to adandon another
Only one of my own
can understand.

Next word. Understand

Cassie88 · May 1, 2005

Understand

birth, food, love, hate, money, god, loss, death

I
don't
understand

any of it

Next word: SEARCHER

KTC · May 1, 2005

I am the searcher of truths,
Come to de-conceal the beauty
of horses,
The intake of breath
at the sight of a buttercup.
I am the searcher of light
at the end of the darkened tunnel,
Come to touch the acrid
aroma of the burning
funeral pyre,
and laugh at the beauty
made by the ashes
as they dance into
the brilliantly lit
star-strewn sky.

Next word: black

alanna · May 1, 2005

a color of mystery
moonlight
shadow.

funeral
play

of a tragedy
romance
comedy

of life.

next word: ritual

Cabria · May 1, 2005

skin scales
scrubbed
red and raw
bleeding life

a ritual
of imprisonment
battering
of brain

epidermis emptying
down a dark drain
swirling, sucking
start over
again

Next Word: Compulsion

wurdwise · May 1, 2005

The incessant
beating of the wings
of an evil butterlfly
in my brain.

The constant
poking of the fingers
of an wicked taskmaster
in my heart.

The compulsion
driving me with the need
of a madwoman
I am whole.

Next word: Constant

chelle21 · May 2, 2005

Untitle Piece

my mind is made up on the night that shine when you went away
how can my mind be made up with the constant reminder of you?
I felt to realize who you where isn't anymore that you constant
keep reminder me that, that love isn't here anymore. My memories
of you is a fainted memory.

next word: realize
