My poem.

Post by Da_Goat »

OK, I like to write.........and I thought you might like to read some of my literature. My first one is a poem about schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia
Day and night, I am constantly depressed,
My burden is not broken love, but stress,
How it comes, I could not tell,
I wish it could go away, with one coin in a well.

But, alas, I am not that fortunate,
My life, I can not shorten it,
Or perhaps I can, with one twitch of a knife,
Begone with all problems in my life.

No one listens, so no one will care,
Neither the ones who intake water, nor the ones that breathe air,
For to them, to them I am just nothing
Yes, to them I am just fussing.

The amount of due happiness had came to it's peak,
Of which I now have nothing to speak,
My disease isn't contagious, they don't understand,
I should just pull the trigger, and forever know the sandman.

How should I do it though,
a bullet? Too messy. A knife? no.
Perhaps I could use my bath,
die without feeling death's grasp.

Yes, that'll do, should I leave casual, or in style,
I haven't been in my formal clothes for quite a while,
My tuxedo? No, I was saving that for my cousin to wear,
But wait! Of my death or clothing, what does he care.

So the tuxedo it is, with the bath in the shower,
Perhaps it would be appropriate if I carried a flower?
Sunflower? No, I never liked those,
Maybe a rose? Yes, a rose for it's thorns.

But wait, I'm changing, my reason for being,
A new perspective I have started seeing,
The feeling of depression is slipping,
And yes, now a warm bottle of milk I am sipping.

But someday, the disease will get me,
Yes, someday my death will free me,
How long it will take, I do not know,
But for what it's worth, I will not show.
Do you like it? BTW, DB, if we find enough people that are into literature, why don't we start a usergroup?

I'm a bit of a poet myself. In 7th grade, I wrote a poem about Al Gore for a project, purely because my teacher was a democrat, so poking fun at him was enjoyable to do. I based it on "The Cat in the Hat Comes Back", because we were supposed to edit an existing poem. It made fun of gore so much, it was hilarious.

His bones are frail,
His comp is to be hailed.

His ax is whetted,
But not to be betted.

Well, I wrote the following poem a couple months ago.....I don't like it, but if you're into short poems.....it's about the words shut up :-D
Shut up

Such cruel words,
yet filled with such a meaning.
trembles as it rolls off....
...flows when it's out
the only two words you'll ever need to know..
that relieves your urge to shout.....
so, anyway, I'm gonna start a poll.....please vote if you'd like a separate forum and/or usergroup for literature.

Redneck, the definition of the word Hoosier. (Which I am) In any case, I'm all for this. I'll start a forum for literature. (I will not be starting a usergroup as that would be pointless)

I gave my vote to a closed usergroup, that would be kind of neat. Maybe viewable by all, but posting could be only a select few. I guess I'm undecided, because it would be nice if everyone would be able to post, too.

Both usergroups here are pointless.

yeah....actually, I would think a Writers usergroup makes more sense than the "Elite" thing. The webmaster's group makes a little sense, but I think that a Writer's group would be even better.

*BTW, I know that this is a poem, but I didn't feel like posting it again on the poem thread. So, here ya go.

I think that a UG would be a good idea. Then only people that were truly interested in and fascinated by literature would post.
