Experiment

[shyamberlover]

Hey there, have been visiting this board a hell of alot over the last two years or so, I love reading the fanfic and would love to write some myself but never know where to start, but thats beside the point. The point is that there is something I do write quite alot of and thats poetry. I don't know if its any good or not, its just my theropy for keeping sane. I've always wanted to do something with it but not sure what so will try this. Hope they make some sort of sense.

A society of the future

I look around what do I see
I see teenagers who aren’t like me
Controlled by fashion, fashioned by boys
They only play with toys

I start to look further than the eye can see
I see a society begging to be free
They seek only happiness and yet expect so much
They become selfish as their pride overrules
And they leave their mark like silly young fools

The older the wiser or so they say
What will become of the OAP’s of the future
Will they be content with the soap opera culture
Or will they moan and demand
Robbie Williams to perform at their command

So what does my future hold in this material world
Can I become something before I am old
Or will I be restricted to a TV
No stories to be told
No chance to be free

A society of the future
I look around what do I see

Needing you

I feel the need to touch you
And be held in your arms
Please hold me tight
All through the night
Don’t let me come to harm
For I need you

I long for your arrival at my door
Only then will I trust myself
To be happy and free
I would travel land and see
For I need you

Outside when it’s freezing
My heart keeps on beating
With you standing next to me
Guarding protecting me
I feel your hand shake in mine
The nerves between us both entwine
To a passion of the highest degree
I long for the day
When we are free
For I need you

I’m vulnerable without you
But feel fragile around you
For I wouldn’t want to change our situation
Who cares about the location
For I love you

What’s the point

Why have bodies become so week
They crumble without enough sleep
We are not the superior race
Just because we have brains
We have not yet learnt how to use

We have eyes that are blinkered by the media
No wander we’ve lost the basic criteria
Of this over indulgent lifestyle that we lead
When some don’t deserve the right to breath

Yet we still bleed for equality
We bleed for life
Even when our common goal
Is slipping out of sight
In the end we have one instinct
One thing to do through life

SURVIVE

The hunger and pain might never go away
But we still fight for the right to stay alive
I don’t believe everyone is right
We don’t owe it to the animals
To overly exploit their kind to maintain our life

We should respect and protect
For those who cannot speak
Make sure they can breath
To survive in our world
That’s become so numb many ask

What’s the point

Okidoki well thats just a few, to me it just sometimes seems like ranting but there you go, please let me know what you think. if you're still reading thanks for doing so.

Great poems.

[Emms]

Sammi, I loved all your poems. Especially A society of the future and What’s the point I really respect a woman that has something to say-- which I believe you do.

This stanza was awesome:

We have eyes that are blinkered by the media
No wander we’ve lost the basic criteria
Of this over indulgent lifestyle that we lead
When some don’t deserve the right to breath

and so true... You ROCK, girly. And thank you for sharing these poems. They're really very good.

xoxo

Hey there people I'm back thanks for the feedback I appreciate it, sorry it's taken me a while to reply, am out in the states at the moment working in a camp in vermont for the summer, and there hasn't been any internet for the last few days. will post a couple of new poems, let me know what you think.

[b]Just my opinion[/b]

I think we all have responsibilities to ourselves
Don’t let slip that we all have problems
Never let go of the you you are
Don’t let someone else fill your bra
Cause they ain’t you

I would love to see your train of thought
When you see a sex scene in a film
Do you wish you were there girls
Do you wish you were him
Don’t be scared to admit the truth
Otherwise you are cheating you

I realise that my word isn’t law
I don’t see how what I say is bad
When it’s only my opinion
How sad is that we have to take everything so literally


Re-read this poem
What story do you see


Prejudice

Prejudice affects us all
We are we are judged
On our appearance
What we see
But whatever I am judged on
I will always be me

Prejudice has no boundaries
No law it must obey
The rules are to spot the weakness
Expose the insecurity
Until what is left is all a fray

Prejudice is like a disease
It opens up old wounds on mass
Dragging up the family past
So why all the pain and grief
When it originates from a slightly different
Sex, colour, or belief

After all we are only human

Intense

Intense is the feeling
Intense is the place
Intense is the cage
For the future human race

It cruises round your body
Floating through your mind
So intense you can’t escape it
It could be the moment you left behind

Intensity is powerful
It can change your view on life
On how you view society
And how you get your wife

Intensity is beautiful
It cannot be ignored
For those who fear to be hurt will be lonely
Intensity includes the
True and holy

hey these are just philosophical one's i do write some about love and friendship aswell and would like to share them aswell, but at the same time they are very personal to me of course, so it might be a while till i post them here.

hope these find you well

Hi there Sammi, Great poems....you rock girl!

[SJ]

Like those poems,great writing.

[shyamberlover]

Hey there people im back in the good old UK doing the university thing and thinking again which is a bit of a relief i come bearing more poems. Also i would just like to say thankyou for the feedback i appreciate it. i hope this finds you all well.

Here they are.

Happy poem

I ain’t feeling it now
But happy I am
To be loved by you
Is better than you could possibly know

We walk together hand in hand
But in the dark as few understand
But I can wait
Let’s see
The reaction of our friends
The day we break free

I am loving you more and more
On every single day
The way you did your hair this morning
It’s silly but I say
Hello world, hello you
Thank you for your being
Come round here let’s have a hug
I thank God for what I’m seeing

I’m as light as a feather
In your presence this heart skips a beat
And sometimes I weep
Out of happiness
How silly am I
I’m not sure how long we can hide

Listen to this truth
I love you

Coping

I’m sinking in despair
Knowing that you won’t be there
When I wake you will be gone
All laughter and love will be none
The nightmare is you won’t return
I can’t cope

In my dreams I save your life
I am rewarded with your love
My nightmare is that you’ll share
Our love
Give it to someone else
For that will destroy me
I can’t cope

So here we are, we are at an end
We’ve had so much fun
But now it’s too late
To salvage this relationship
We will have to try and make amends
Learn to listen and try not to cry
I’m starting to cope


My current view

It makes me laugh in side to know
That when you read this poem you won’t see
The brilliant shade of blue that stretch before me
The softly crashing waves
That travel leisurely form the sea
You can’t see the people around me
Who attempt to fumble gracefully in the sea
On the pebbles and rocks
That are hard on your feet

The people have a mix of confidence
Some woman top naked
While men stare in idleness
Many young come to play bat and ball
While the elderly go for an apathetic stroll
The sand is damp at my feet
And crumbles like dry cement
It’s is so easily moulded
Like new clay when it’s folded

Many sit and lay in leisure
Their bodies show the ebbing away
Of the days pressure
Personally I find it rather boring
Without a Harry Potter calling
The main reason I come to the sea
Is to swim in the water
Where you feel free
Weightless and unrestricted
In the highly salted sea

So what is your image
As you’re reading this now
Is it of a white sandy beach
With palm trees
Or a crowded space
Where you can barely move your knees

What ever you see I hope it’s nice
But I bet it wasn’t as beautiful
As it is here
Where the water is as transparent as ice


That last one was written when i was in Crete about three years ago i highly recommend it to anyone its a beautiful island.

anyway enough of me waffle

Sammi

[SJ]

Nice contrast in your poetry. Thanks for sharing.

[shyamberlover]

Hello there thanks for reviewing me work i appreciate your support, well here's a another one, i think i wrote it a couple of years ago now i can't remember. WARNING! it's a bit of a moaner.


Sad people

I’m watching all this crap unfurl
Of celebrities and their exposed world
I see why they piss and moan
So would I
If paparazzi invaded, saw the bones
And structure of my life
Exposing my secrets
Twisting the knife

What kind of messed up society
Moves the crowds
Leading us into the darkness
Through mist and clouds
We blindly stumble into moral lows
Obsessed with celebrity
Unforgiving of their woes

They are only human
How would you feel
To be observed and scrutinised at
Every public meal
How would you like
Your new born child to be
Coarsely exposed to
To the rest of the world
With little chance to be free

Celebrities may have their cash
But they have no rights
To avoid the crap
So in truth I wonder at the necessity of fame
If privacy is the price to pay
I couldn’t cut it
It would break me down
If it ever caught me
I would stumble around

Don’t you think we’ve lost our minds
If celebrity takes precedent over
The third world and basic equality of our kind
Can’t we see more important issues are at stake
Than who ate Britney Spear’s birthday cake
Such as issues of the environment
The animals that are becoming extinct
If only the paparazzi could convert to these areas
Where would our world then be

Just think of the potential
If for once we all stood firm
Not angry or arrogant
But stood tall for the world
Of peace and cooperation
Of getting along
I realise there would be no sing song

But it riles me up inside to know
What kind of people
Sink so low
Do they have any conscious
Awareness of thought
Or do they simply
Try not to get caught

What a sad life they lead
And so do we

This next poem is totally different. It refers to a girl back in college somethingthing that would have never happened, but try telling the heart that.Altouhhg i have moved on this girl mean everything to me at the time, and the funny thing was i barely even knew her.


Polly

I think I’m starting to get the gist
Of why I love you so
I think it because there’s something in you
Something I yearn to know
You seem to love unconditionally
Unashamedly you’re you

I love it and I want it
I want to be with you

I know that will never happen
You are way out of my league
You’re most probably straight
I hope he’ll be great
I’ll never forget watching you sing

It makes me breathless just to hear your voice
It’s utterly gorgeous
It’s more than noise
It’s filled with charisma, style and poise
I could only watch you for seconds at a time
Any longer you would have seen the signs
In these eyes of mine
You would have seen the love I try to hide
I don’t want to frighten you

Should I ever tell you
What should I do

Would you run away in shock and disgust
I hope not, but it could be worse
I might embarrass you make you uncomfortable
That’s the last thing I want
Please don’t feel dutiful
Trying to put me at ease
Don’t worry I’ll never tell you
So all this waffling will cease

Watching you dance
I was mystified
Aroused by your flexibility
Your vibrant eyes
That conceal nothing
And show to the world
You’re a wonderful person
Addictive to know

I’m an addict just wanting to know more
Please don’t shut this invisible door
I will never forget you’re appearance last night
Your hair top and skirt
Always the focus of my sight
Even if it appeared the opposite
You were my light

You’re hair was slightly crimped
Maybe recently un-platted
I’d love to run my hands through it
To smell it maybe even mat it

Your skirt was long and light
Maybe blue yellow and green with a little of white
You explored it’s potential sinking easily to the floor
Yet instantly returning in your energetic call
To dance to the music enthralled in it’s tone
I don’t remember the song
I remember trying not to moan
With delight
At the sight of you

Your top was simply black with tiny straps
Nothing covering your slender arms
Simply gorgeous
You seemed relaxed

I wish I had more courage to speak to you
If only for polite conversation
I must say I was grateful for Nick
With his friendly supporting salvation
He really isn’t such a bad chap
He shouldn’t have to deal with my crap
But he does and supports me
Has become a valuable friend
I hope I still know him at the end

But let’s not detract away from you
I wish I was there to say goodbye
If only I knew
I hope you didn’t overhear the nipple conversation
As I swung on the swings
I realise my voice carries
Especially outside with the wind
Equally I hope you did not over hear
The one about measuring cocks
As I should make it clear
It doesn’t bother me one way or another
If they measure it each night
And compare with one another

I just wish I could have had the opportunity
To share a hug
A innocent goodbye
To make me feel snug

I should be content with the brushing of hands
If only in jovial nature
I cherish the soft sensation
I wish I could have looked into your eyes
Such a beautiful creature
You are the one my only Polly

I wonder what you see in me
I know I play some games
I think you can’t put your finger on
What I mean to say
You look at me questioningly
I always look away

Fearing that you’ll see your face
Reflected my eyes
You’re all I see
When you’re around
I find that hard to disguise

There have been times
Actually numerous occasions
Where I’ve caught you out
Leading your eyes to follow mine
In various directions without doubt
And never admitting I know
I love to play and go
If only for the moment your kinda mine
It’s fun to play
Every time I catch you out and sigh
With gentle contentment
I know it’s cheeky
I love to make you smile

I won’t soon forget
The one day I made a joke regarding the titanic
Rather sarcastic about one poor soul
Who didn’t make it
Only after he’d been saved by a lifeboat
Did he die on the final journey to dry land
The only one after going through all that
He didn’t last poor chap
I said how annoying that must be
And the room howled with laughter
I tried to act modestly
I quietly smile looking nowhere particular
Not looking but hearing your laughter
I wish to freeze that moment forever after

This is why I’m writing this extensively
To ensure I never forget
Your face your smile your eyes your soul
The length of your lickable neck
Your kindness of heart warms me up
I can see for you interesting things in the future
You will go far
To your hearts desire
I’m already proud of your very nature




ok so i forgot how long that one was, well i hope this finds you well

Sammi xx
