Perhaps inspired by the best songwriters thread i thought maybe it would be a cool idea to create this Poems&Lyrics thread where we can all share our thoughts and get creative.
The rule is simple :

- Come up with your own stuff. NO plagiarism is allowed, as it obviously ruins the point of original creation.

Even tho i´ll start im hoping you guys come along and join the ride, so get creative ! :D



Whispers


The dying light was chasing
Those voices in my head
A mile away from faking
From certain death i fled

Saw you on a crossroad
So i drove till i was there
Caught between the limit
Of life amongst the dead

Come to me so bright
Make me want to care
The night is still so lonelly
A light i can not bare

A sun will soon arise
The dark is still ahead
Make me want to live
Before i lose my glare



I´ll take this chance to wish you guys an awesome New Year´s Eve and 2020 !! Cheers.

Bottle´s Neck


These nights that i have been
Daydreaming fuelled by sin
Ive caught you by the skin
And you had me from whitin

Even though it hurt me
I had it by my side
And even though you loved it
I still cant be your guide

Lets take a trip to the outside
And get a grip of our mind
This road aint no friend of mine
Cause i ain´t one of a kind

Come join me in the abyss
Would you settle for a kiss
Oh yeah thats such a bliss
And thats just something i miss

Salt&Pepper



With the sound of crashing waves awaken by the sea
Still floating from the night that resides with me
A foggy filled road and no cup of tea
I´ll grab you in a moment

Beauty is in the eyes which dream to see


Revisiting the past where was my last address
Counting down the times when i felt i was at home
A mirage in the desert it resembles i confess
Exemption from a chance but ahead with some finesse

Will i ever find a place to roam


No more, no less, for sure its just a mess
Fast forward, rewind, when did i lose my mind
If i take it till the end
Will that mean that its excess

Or am i just possessed by a stranger within

Subtle Borders


Can you feel the sound
Do you hear the waves
Remember we´re the slaves
But is it serving our bound

No more empty plates
They say we´re just primates
Prisoners of the crown
We´re the aliens on the ground

No place without wisdom
Resisting to be found
Are we in a kingdom
Or in a circus of frowns

The matter it is infinite
No measure and no bounds
We´re no casual incident
We´re just stuck in our fairgrounds
 
Tunnel Vision



Into the warm embrace
Of the calm before the storm
Something to displace
Sense of fear i must transform

The festivities have to end
Cause the party is yet to come
What you cherish you defend
What destroys you you resist from

Escape from the asylum
And make your way to home
No place is a misfit
If you follow your own dome

The gathering is upon us
Like the cold that meets the sun
There´s no need to make a fuss
Cause the start has just begun
 
@Chesten_Hesten i appreciate the contribuition and im all for good lyrics, but did you read the 1st post ? Or are you saying that my stuff is crap ? :D
 
Nice idea, I have wrote a poem or two in my time. Nothing amazing, but I love poetry.
 
I wrote this a long time ago when I was around 17 and deals with my childhood sexual abuse

I was only 13
Laying there in my bed
It was a sunny day
Another day
Just like any other day
Or was it just like any other day
He came walking into the room
Silently closing the door
Looking at me
Smiling ever so brightly
A turn of the lock
Walking over
Sitting down
Putting his hand down my pants
Tears drop down my face like rain
He whispers into my ear
"Don't Cry, this won't hurt a bit"

The Dancing Clone



In your hands dealt a king without a queen
A chip and a chair is how you´re supposed to feel
Tap into the place where the grass is allways green
The frequency tells a future you must deal

The past is the last, the last is the past
Be sure to have a blast
The present it is here
So live it without fear

Go back to the place when it felt that it was near
If you come in last you have to check your rear
Think it straight and get your ass in gear
Guided by the stars in a night that is so clear

Move on on your own
Drive your feet dont grab a tow
Even if against the flow
Grown on to your golden throne
 
Your metre is all over the place, if I was to give just a little bit of feedback. I think you either need to try and stick to a regular metre, or else write more freely...mixing between different metres makes it read a bit off in my opinion. For me, in terms of reading poetry (and attempting to write it) the metre and the flow of the lines is much more important than the need for end rhymes. End rhymes are overrated, and when people stick to them at the expense of everything else it tends to give the poem a nursery rhyme feel. Not having a go, or insulting you, just my own thoughts.

Its ok, no need to apologize, i appreciate the feedback.;)
Yeah, i know my metre is a bit unsteady, specially in "dancing clone". I think its because i hear the music in my head and i try to fit the lyrics with the flow of the sound.
I dont necessarily agree that rhymes are overrated, but i totally agree that one mustn´t force a rhyme at the expense of a coherent thought or idea from which the poem is based on.
That makes the challenge fun. :)
