Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Hello TH. This isn't any ordinary poem, it wont even be just mine. It'l be all of ours. I want all of us to take interaction with eachother and work off of eachother. This can be something to help us grow, help us express, and help us get in the right direction not only with writing but in life in general. This will also get us talking to eachother and getting to know eachother that much more :)
The way I thought we were going to start this was someone write part of a poem, I say about 4 lines, and another continues. 4 - 8 lines per person, and continue with the story. Let's see how long we can go, yes? :) I think this would be a fun idea. Go ahead and start, I can but I wont. I want to see what someone else comes up with to start :) annnnnnnd. GO. |

I love this idea! I actually have no idea how to start, so I'll come back and contribute once it's up and running. I think this is a brilliant idea though. :)

Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Okie, I'll start it off, now someone continue :)
Her eyes open wide when she looks beyond the sky She watches the tears of the sun as they pass by All the lives she blew sky high believed in her lies Locked up in her heart when they knew they couldn't comply |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
She held them there, trapped in her little cold heart
No, but it wasn't always so cold, no no. Oh but once this lovely little girl's heart was a summer castle Complete with little pink flowers and rolling hills of green The storm clouds came in unexpectedly and the poor little girl hid But no one can hide from the storm... |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
No one can hide from the storm So you question can they see the storm? When the rain drops hit she will finally take her form And when they look upon the eyes they'll feel her scorn |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Pssssst Tigereyes, post that, it was good!
|
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Post anything and everything! This is one huge long terrific poem, no competition or critiquing. Just having fun with this one :3
|
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Her eyes will tell the story
Of her suffering not glory Trapped in her heart of cold No matter what people told She kept believing in the lies When the rain drop hit her eyes |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Her eyes show the prize
But is it worth it just to say goodbye? She knows she can't fly but she still tries to try Even when the paint starts to peel and dry |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
the coldness on her skin
which everyone said was sin none of which did she beleive and the gift she never did receive left open once more as she crumples to the floor |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
With an addiction to makeup and a nasty little snow habit
She tries to cover up the the vast moody sky so she can trap it No, it's not magic, it's all in the way she wraps it If it's not tight enough, watch things get tragic |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
But inside is a beautiful little girl who's been told too many times she's too big. Oh darlin', you're so beautiful and perfect if you could only see. Love yourself, because he never loved you.

Let go of your sorrow
Let go of your pain. Don't let what your used to Win this horrible game. Leave all that you have known Start life anew Become a better person Because the world loves you. |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
She doesnt see the lies
And she doesnt see the truths All around her people die As she crumples up the nuce Falling to the floor Trying to make it through She thinks noone cares anymore If only she knew |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
By the way. I see over 80 people looked at this thread, I don't see 80 people responding either =p. Please don't be afraid, please continue this as it will be one of the funnest things you will ever do. I'd like to see more and more people enter this thing so we can make a poem that lasts the rest of our lifetime <3
If only she knew her ceiling wasn't in runes Her people weren't so crude Like the stars compliment the moon But the sun gazes too soon She realizes even light ain't bullet proof She stands atop the roof To shout out...please god....just shoot. |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
And with her emotions so deeply in root
She saw her life flash before her eyes Standing there her face filled with demise She did soon realise That this just was not right Shaking with fright She took flight |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
This looks beautiful so far!!! :)
Let's keep it up!! I'll add more in a little bit once I think of what I want to add next. :) |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
She's high above the sky and all she does is wonder why
She's being pried out of life without so much as a goodbye |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
needing to leave but scared to fall
she just runs away down the hall behind closed doors they whisper her name all the while shes ignoring their game jumping, reaching, screaming out is there really a reason to thrash about? |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Her fate
Laid out straight She's taken their bait Without much of a fight She tries with all her might It's not good enough In the dead of night Her tears are shed Her pillow is red. |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
It falls to the carpet
No reason to sharpen it As her life drains away So does the light of Day No longer is it bright Shes about to say Goodnight |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
The thought of dying now fills her fright
She lays in bed hoping and praying it will be all right She hops she will make it through the night The darkness surrounds her She suddenly feels like a fragile and delicate flower With every passing hour She found she still some had some sort of power. |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Picking up the phone
A shakeing hand dialed A friend that would make her feel better The phone rang and rang But no one answered Feeling more alone then ever |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Her heart about to shatter
She began to think I don't matter She took pen to paper Words pouring out Full of putrid and anger |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
But nobody heard
As she poured out her heart And she couldn't tell them Didn't know where to start |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
noone would listen
noone would see until a man in black armour came to rescue me he picked me up off the ground he gave my life a whole new sound |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Until he never came around again
Leaving her in her tears to drown So now she is left with nothing not even her heart You tore that from her after you fell apart And now she is just waiting for another to come in To do the exact thing to her over again |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
My knight in shining armor is no more
He left me to pick the pieces off the floor Don't come back knocking on my door I don't need you anymore I'm tired of crying and feeling so sore I'm taking my life back, locking the door |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
And she tried to pull herself onto her feet
But she fell, resistance was all that she'd meet. She told everyone she was fine, but she lied And one day something snapped: "help me," she cried. |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Her knight in shining armor had returned then
Saying he was sorry, let's just start again The girl had a very tough choice to make Not knowing what path she should take The knight didn't love her anymore But loneliness hurt her to her core |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
As she fell once more to the floor
She lay there looking at that closed door A frown occupied her face She felt this was her place Just to be used and hurt She looked around with so much disconcert She never knew life would be this hard |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Swallowed in the darkness
Cracked lips that called his name The gaze in her eyes hopeless Her mind playing tricks and games |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Knowing she'd never feel whole again
She knew this process would be the same Driving her more and more insane She let the world swallow her up Deeper and deeper in her pain She new that life little game Was one she'd never truly win |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
So she falls back to the ground
Where she cant here a sound And listens for a voice That will help her rejoice Disappointed when nothing returns So she crys until it burns |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
She's become part of a sick and twisted game
The boy of her dreams Now many miles away Nobody to save her Nobody to hear her She lets out a scream |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
She throws her hands to the sky
As she tries to free herself from the lies Told by the unseen mouths that wander the Earth Whispering into sorrowful souls that their lives have no worth |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
Here's the whole thing in case anybody wants it... :)

She grasps the handles by the strings she gently placed
Resenting grace in every stencle trace she can't erase The cracks on this shifty stage and the misty gaze Shine light on new beginnings in this weary age Here come the waves like a train shaking her brace And she can't relate to any fucking bleeding face So praise today even when you can't find your way Just for a change of pace try to feign the pain |
Re: Continuous Poem - All of ours. Participate! :D
She wants the pain to go away,
To live her life day by day. But she doesn't know how, and her mind begins to doubt. (I hope you don't mind me joining in. I'm trying to get rid of this writer's block and this is a great idea! Fantasic poem so far!) |
