Everybody needs a break in life, and have no regrets. Here's my poem. Around the corner I have a friend, In this great city that has no end, Yet the days go by and weeks rush on, And before I know it, a year is gone. And I never see my old friends face, For life is a swift and terrible race, He knows I like him just as well, As in the days when I rang his bell. And he rang mine but we were younger then, And now we are busy, tired men. Tired of playing a foolish game, Tired of trying to make a name. 'Tomorrow' I say! 'I will call on Jim Just to show that I'm thinking of him.' But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes, And distance between us grows and grows. Around the corner, yet miles away, 'Here's a telegram sir,' 'Jim died today.' And that's what we get and deserve in the end. Around the corner, a vanished friend. Remember to always say what you mean. If you love someone, tell them. Because when you decide that it is the right time it might be too late. Seize the day. Never have regrets. And most importantly, stay close to your friends and family, for they have helped make you the person that you are today.
WOW, that was actually really good. To be brutaly honest what has made me who I am is, of course family and friends, but also, South Park and wrestling have made me who I am, I cant imagine how different I'd be if I didnt like either of them.
Why have you never told me you were so deep, my opinion of you just changed completely. Come to think of it, that's been happening a lot lately. I'm feeling really deep lately, so many people that I've known are turning out to be much better a person than I had originally intended, and if I had known what kind of person they really were, I would have treated them a lot better than I had been. I take too many people for granite. It gives me hope to see that not all humanity has turned into cynical assholes, I get tired of that in real life.
Cough* Titmar *cough I just never showed it on the internewebz, Dom. But I was looking through my old E-mails, as I had sent this to one of my friends that was about to commit suicide, and apparently I stopped him. Who knew.
I really liked this poem, I never new you, of all people to be a word artist. A kid in my class "the odd man out" so to speak, he has some mental problem and growth development issues. But anyway, he wrote a poem (I found his DeviantArt account) and sent it to everyone in my class, and he became popular. That poem is so sexy. unrelated story, but really, yours was swell, makes you think about life, and whats real, thats what I like. good stuff
I would post some of my poetry but, they are very dark and lonely so don't really fit this thread. But that one was good. Not my style though.
Not to be a ****, but it kinda sounds like a Dr. Seuss story. Sorry. I think it's pretty good, though. Better than a lot of stuff I make. The words themselves are great. I do indeed have a very poetical side to me. I think that if you didn't force yourself into an 'AA, BB, CC' type of rhyming system, it might have been even better.
Made into lyrics, hope you don't mind: ForgeHub Halo Forums - Musicians Haha, Dr.Seuss? Which one of his poems ends with a man dying and has the general feeling of time wasted, remind me. Send me some of your poetry, this is good stuff.
No, I meant the rhyming style. I like the way he wrote it, it's just that I found the rhyming is a little detractive to the entire poem.
"Dom pukes on teh mastar" Mmm yes.. Very deep Dom ;D lulz You are a pretty talented poet, this makes me want to organize a reunion party for my old primary school
I do not like green eggs and ham Sam I am I would not like them here or there I would not like them any where LOL
Wow I'm gunna be straight up now[/actsblack].This whole poem is true.Life is very short so you should seize the day ,your firends,and new friends.Because before you'll know it you'll be in your deathbed looking back at your life realizing not what you did ,but what you could have did.
Helping some one through depression and a suicidal phase is one of the most difficult, and bravest things that you can do in your life, I am very proud of you Alby.
I can understand what its like to lose a family member to suicide. My Aunty took her life a couple years ago. It was one of the longest days of my life.
