Poetry

So Hi, I like to sometimes write poetry, so I thought I'd share some of it with you. I have one poem based on The Fault in Our Stars, so IF YOU HAVEN'T READ IT STOP NOW because it sort of contains spoilers,

He’s gone, He’s passed, his time had come,

Their words echo, the beats of a loud, soulless drum.

Their words and comfort can’t help him now,

Their hands in prayer, their heads…

"Despite" {The True Hope Poem}

And he told me,

that he was surprised that this world

hasn’t beat out any sense of hope that I may have for it.

As if my frame was a pinata and this world is the child

that could never burst it

to let its insides fall out,

for a lack of better metaphor.



Despite the poems I’ve written about life…

My first real poem...

Desperation, and silent pain,

but only silent, because of shame,

feeling scared, so full of fear,

for your reaction, i refuse to hear,

The tears i hold, and times i fight,

to tell you somethings not quiet right.

Feeling pathetic, and nothing more,

for this life is something i should adore.

smiling faces, hopeless dreams,

Pretendings harder than it seems,

Fighting thoughts that take control,

just like Alice, falling down the hole,

into a world,…

Possible Project: Random Happenings (...In Your Pants)

Yesterday I posted a blog post (which you can read here) explaining an idea I've had for a while. Whilst typing out my idea I realized how amazing this idea would be as a collaborative effort.

Basically I have a lot of poems, short stories, unfinished works, random ramblings and odd doodles and collages lying around. So I…

The time of insects to the time of stars

Wislawa Szymborska, a polish poet and Nobel Prize winner, died yesterday at eighty-eight years old. She was one of the greatest poets I've read, and everyone should benefit from her work. If you read nothing else this week, Jena, read the poem below, and Szymborska's…

The Hope of Winter

I want to write of something positive but there is no inspiration,

   The ground is covered in cold dead snow,

   The trees retreated into themselves.

   There are no flowers that bloom now,

   No birds to sing of spring,

   The sun seems distant, cold, and shrouded.

Winter is a silent sound,

   One that hurts your ears,

   Its sharp and shrill,

   Yet muffled and…

So I randomly decided to write a poem and decided to share it with you!

Yes, you! My non existent readers!

Here it is:

I will not conform to what Society wants me to be
To be perfect
would be imperfect to me
I like the way I Say
and Do
and Choose
The words of hate
Never will make
Me different
Who are you to ask me to be Prettier
When it is you who is ugly
Underneath the shallow surface
Of your wants which are…

Finding Me - Introduction

I'm Diamond Nicole. I was planning on writing a fictional blog, but I figured, why not let at least one place be somewhere I can be me, unconditionally?

I'm sixteen. I love to do a lot of different things. Photography. Writing. Poetry. Singing. Yardwork. Garden and Interior Design. Advice. Acting. Theater design.…

When Crying don't Help and You can't Compose Yourself. It is Best to Compose a Poem

Why is it that even with all our technology and all our things to do out there that most of the time when we can't make left or right out of a situation, most people turn to literature. I mean every one at one point in their lives need it be for school or just to pass the…

Hi Daddy (a poem)-- creative writing piece #7

Hi Daddy



You know I love you,

And I know in my heart you love me too,

But sometimes it's hard for me

To be the person you want me to be,

The person I want to be.

Sometimes, I feel like it's just all

Falling apart. I stumble and I fall

And then pull myself up again,

But sometimes I wonder

If I really ever did

Get back up,

Because it still hurts, even when

I'm standing.

And the pain makes it harder to

Stay… Continue

A poem about suicide.

Eyes turned upward, I watch the sky fall away./ There are no clouds on this dark day./ The tower tops run away from me as wind blows through my hair./ My concrete bed waits for me, unaware./ I smile as a river of glass flows past my feet./ To bad so few people have done this feat./ The course fiber feels good…

Emotions

I write

I'm wrong

I hide it all

they don't look

I show and tell

But not for them

I show you

you don't judge

I say it Anonymously

I say it in six words

I write it on a postcard

I don't say it it to anyone I see

Just online

I'm safe online



I wrote this under a tree and typing it out almost made me cry. But I've met great people who I can talk to and share with. I've got friends now and they're great, they stay up as late as me; and like… Continue

The Land of 50

There was only one word to describe us

That’s a reason for blindness

The slick mop of hair that resonates with most

From a land of so many differences

We are all the same

Ignorance vibrates across the land of 50

Wait till the label comes to get you

For in this evening we are all connected

By one invisible thread

Of reason vs. flight of fancy

The sway through the illusion of a left or right

With one commonplace thought

Ignorance… Continue

Love Poem (not your average one)

Looking at flair is painful.
Imagining is painful.
Watching TV is painful.
This wasn't meant to be a poem.


Not seeing you for months is painful.
Not hearing from you in a week is painful.
Knowing I won't send that note is painful.
This wasn't meant to be a poem.


Sitting here alone is painful.
Being down there is painful.
Writing this poem is…
