This one got me robots. Also /poetry/ general.


WHY so pale and wan, fond lover?
Prithee, why so pale?
Will, when looking well can't move her,
Looking ill prevail?
Prithee, why so pale?

Why so dull and mute, young sinner?
Prithee, why so mute?
Will, when speaking well can't win her,
Saying nothing do 't?
Prithee, why so mute?

Quit, quit for shame! This will not move;
This cannot take her.
If of herself she will not love,
Nothing can make her:
The devil take her!

here's a poem i wrote for my girlfriend, planning it on sending her tonight so let me know if i should change anything:

I am hers, and she is mine.
Every time I look into her in the eye,
Lo and behold I see a woman, not a guy.
I am hers, and she is mine.
I am the luckiest man in the entire world
My sweetheart is one very beautiful girl.
I am hers, and she is mine.
I know I am a straight man, even though people call me gay
Not so, she was always a woman, from the very first day.
I am hers, and she is mine.
Anyone who has a problem with our love can pound sand,
This woman completes me, I love it when I take her hand.
I am hers, and she is mine.
Every day I am thankful for our relationship and love
The woman of my life is as pure and graceful as a dove
I am hers, and she is mine.
Running through my mind nonstop is my beautiful girlfriend when we are apart,
And when we are together she knows how to excite my heart.
I am hers, and she is mine.
Not one ounce of a male do I see in her from head to toe.
She is 110% female, and if you disagree, you will become my foe.
I am hers, and she is mine.
For she is as beautiful, in my eyes, as any supermodel
And my favorite thing to do with her, is watch a movie and cuddle.
I am hers, and she is mine.
Gone are the days where she had to worry if she will ever find a mate
Since you are mine, and I am yours, now that we are together this has to be fate.
She is mine, and I am hers.

and watch as time goes by

I got a few shitty things I wrote back in highschool
It's been a while since I've shown them to anyone

The Coldest Hour

I sit at my desk, writing your letter
Write for the best, write for the better
Pretend I'm still king, clutching the throne
But I'm just the fool, who laughs all alone
I tell you my stories of conquests and crossed blades
But I have not left this castle, I have fared no crusades

I sit here and play this dispiriting game
Rituals with no purpose, the outcomes the same
A weighted distraction; blackjack or poker,
But the hand I've been dealt is made up of Jokers
A loser's remorse, felt the first move
A loser I am, with nothing to lose.

I remember the nights where we would stay up
Until the stars would fall down and the sun would fall up
A peculiar hour that we had both shared
A time we forgot out worries and the fears that we bared.
The warmth of your smile for which was all that I plead
Inexplicably leading to the soft secrets we bled.

I remember the laughter, our happiness sure
I remember the love and the tears we endured
All of the memories, as fresh as before
Near too many to count, yet still I managed to score
Tallied each laugh, marked up each tear
Wrote down each "I love you" whispered into our ears

But the hour is cold now, and those days are past.
There's futility in trying to make that dream last.
Yet still I do try, I clutch and I hold
To find something for us, as we both grow old
With nothing to find and time running out
I dig into my chest, and rip my heart out.

The hour gets colder, as does my skin
I let out a sigh, on my face grows a grin
A somber acceptance of my sorrowful fate
The cure I have needed, arriving fashionably late.
It's now time to rest, I've taken my fall.
I've given my best, I gave it my all.

As my eyelids grow heavy, and my sight fades to black,
I dream of the hour, and I'm taken aback
I dream of the warmth that is now far away
With the cold seeping in, without any delay.

I lay on my floor, having written your letter.
Wrote for the best, wrote for the better.

I knew a simple soldier boy
Who grinned at life in empty joy,
Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
And whistled early with the lark.
In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
With crumps and lice and lack of rum,
He put a bullet through his brain.
No one spoke of him again.
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
Sneak home and pray you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go

How do I write poetry?
>>
Does anyone else think poetry is cringeworthy as fuck?
>>
>>24325354
go to /ic and read the sticky links except exchange the word draw with write

essentially practice makes perfect

your first poems will be autistic as hell and you may be trying to copy a poet you like but after awhile it comes naturally
