Anyone here write music, poetry, etc? I've been doing it for a while, and more frequently as of late. I don't know why - but it's kinda fun sometimes. It's cool if you are in the mood, and if you aren't forget about it. <font size="1"> Hands I look down at my Calloused, scarred hands, Thinking what these hands Have done What these hands have written How these hands have Caressed How these hands have worked And why these hands have comforted The touch of love The simple hand on your Shoulder Powerful and sturdy Gentle and forgiving I look down at my Hands And wonder What words flow next</font> <font size="1"> You Because you take the time to listen I open my heart And sing from my soul Because you stand in the shadows and let me shine I open my heart Like a spring bubbling up Because you stand in the shadows and let me shine You smile with pride Through the inside you hurt Overflowing with emotion When I let my song fly free Through the inside you hurt You open up your heart like a door unlocked. When I let my song fly free Filled with a sense of wonder You open up your heart like a door unlocked And let my song tug on your heartstrings Overcome with emotion I see you smile And I sing from my soul Overcome with emotion Because you take the time to listen</font> Guess I'm emo at heart... without the boring personality.
I love to write. It's one of the most fulfilling practices you can do IMO, and it's underrated as a form of stress release/emotional discharge. I've seen some more of Ice's stuff too, and it's very good.
I love most of your writing, Ice. Keep it up. I'm sure if you submitted that stuff you'd make some kind of poetry book or win some kind of contest. I write, but when I write it's music. I've written some pretty nice songs on guitar, but my best work is done on bass. I'll practice almost every day for hours at it. It's really fulfilling when you're able to play your finished product though.
That's some top stuff there, Ice. I've been meaning to get into some songwriting, just don't know where to begin...
Nice work Ice, I used to write hopeless romantic type poems...but I'll spare my being called a sissy and not post them.
Shard, I've seen your work and it's great. You should share it. Heres a quickie.. <font size="1">A hundred pairs of widening eyes, Stare through the flames that mesmorise, Watch embers float like fireflies, As the fire burns. A circled mass of glowing faces, Each of which the heat embraces, Fixed to their unmoving places, As the fire burns. Each crackling spark conceals a cry, Instead causing an endless sigh, Spare a thought for those who die, As the fire burns.</font>
that's some good stuff Ice, please continue posting your work... I use to write a bit myself, but haven't done so since High School
Nice stuff Ice, I myself used to write, and whenever a school project came about I used to do it more and more. Now, I don't as much, and most of my stuff is different notebooks which are nowhere to be found.
<font size="1"> Dancer The lights shimmer like a stunning flash Bursting before your eyes It?s time The stage awaits you All eyes are on you The dancer Your body is anesthetized Your costume is rigid Your face is prominent. Are you ready? The signal is given It?s time to move Move to the music The world is watching As you sophisticatedly soar across the theater The delicacy of your slipper Places itself on the ground Crashing like a horrendous wave Resembling a abrupt snapshot It flashes before your eyes It?s over All eyes are still on you The dancer</font> ---- <font size="1">I cant smile for any length of time I cant feel any love in my spine I cant believe I'll ever be fine I want to take a life I'll take my own to see the end, flesh rot off bone when you see me in my moment of peace let me sit leave me be while that part of me looks deceased the rest of me is free</font> Wave.. interesting poem earlier, eh?
