Asking Questions

How many words does it take  
to find out there’s nothing more left to say?  How many combinations of rhymes  
to realize that after all of this time  I’ve said it all  I’ve rhymed them all  The strongest fall  and I have watched them crawl   
why is making money success?  even if there’s only unhappiness?  even if a man’s life is a mess?  and his whole life his feelings are repressed?  I watch him crawl  
Into a denial where there’s no escape at all   
Why must I swallow all that I write?  Because I’m criticized even though

It's SadI think I’ve had all I can take  I gave you too much and that was my mistake  You took for granted all the love I gave  You never had to apologize,  Because I justified all your mistakes  I wanted your love so bad,  I ignored my pain and pride  Confronted by constant disappointment  And no, that never did subside  Hoping to manifest what I desired  I put so much into the dream,  But I’ve become tired  Of building a lie  But that feels like a former life now  That feels like a different time now  That feels like a different me now  And no, you will never It's Sad

My Message to the WorldI want to write something uplifting  Because I know something is missing  And I’m beginning to see the change  It looks like it’s about to rain  Love is water  Oil is pain  When you put them together  They only separate  And I’m beginning to understand  
That there could be a greater plan  Greater than what I could design  I have this feeling in my mind  Of an emotional place  It is not an escape  But something we could create  Because I  can’t trust  or accept  What is in front of me  You cannot grasp reality  It My Message to the World

These Words Are for UThese words are for you  I know that they’re not new  that they only come through  On lines of paper and ink that’s blue  But I promise you they are true  As true as my intentions  I know sometimes I forget to mention  How much you mean to me  How thankful I truly am  For every day we have together  After all the rainy days we’ve weathered  It feels good to sit in the sun together  Feeling the sand beneath our feet  Watching the waves undulate  Rhythmically, spontaneously  We pontificate the ephemerality of life  
Watching it crash into the sand &nb These Words Are for U

And, while I appreciate fully the power you can have in speaking so as to be clearly understood, I think it is definitely useful to maintain some skill in that "metaphorical" style you used to cover yourself in your youth. Having both to draw upon makes you potentially doubly effective, I think. Like Jesus and his parables, which could be taken more than one way to teach his followers while not pissing off the religious leaders who disapproved of him.

I agree, it was nice to meet you, and I am pleased to have access to your poetry, which is quite palatable, especially considering I'm not big into poetry. =) And I agree that Camille is a strong and wonderful wife, and I'm very lucky to have her. :nod: Thank you!

It was great to finally meet u :hug:
Dad wanted us to meet for quite some time now, but I am glad that it finally happened:) You are so lucky to have such a wonderful wife, she is strong, funny, intelligent, caring, etc
it is hard to meet people with all of these qualities; and it is great that she is supportive of your art and creativity
a lot of people do not "get" art and the desire to be creative and it is great that she does and encourages you to explore your creativity:)

A lot of my poetry does rhyme though...
I also like to play around with internal rhyming so pay attention to that as I like to "sneak" it in:)
so as far as my "writing style" goes it is simplistic
I have been writing poetry since I was about 12 so my writing style has gone through different stages...
for a long time it was very dense, difficult, and metaphorical
nowadays I have something to say
and would rather have my voice heard than having it become lost behind the walls I would have to hide behind
I prefer being naked and exposed, but understood;)

Hey there! I just added you to my watch, and now I'll go in and read through this poetry. Of course, I have a difficult time with poetry that doesn't rhyme...

...yes, I know, I'm a neanderthal... :slow: ;)

It was nice to see you this past weekend. =)
