UPDATE:

So yah, this is now the Guns N' Roses Appreciation group. Welcome new members.
Old members, you are welcome to stay and still post poetry. It is now that the group is just more generalised towards music.

GNR. The true rockers.

colonial men
hunt the zebra
stripped black and white
nailed to cape town crosses.
a brick shatters the mirror,
no reflection on the other side.
i only see victims;
not criminals.
punishable in their imaginations,
the idea of superiority
and oh,
the enforcement of the fact,
must be a surreal exotic
astronautical voyage
to your parallel universe,
where you and your scandalous
clique create imperfections,
afraid that the water will
drink itself.

|

Reaching for you,
looking at you deeply.
"I love you, too."
Our eyes meet...
I know love only finds a few.
Embracing each other,
If only you knew
the pain you take away from me in a hug.
With us together, there is no issue.
You piece together my heart,
I am sure our love is true.
A pause,a moment,a kiss.
Only you're touch will do!

The Pig Orbits The Moon,
It Fell out of the Sky too soon!
It fell on its rump
With an almighty BUMP!
And now it sings this tune!
Oinkity Oinkity Oink!

The day when humans join hand in hand,
Is the day the sea rolls into land,
The day disaster joins us all,
The day our fellow human fall,
The day my life is before my eyes,
The day a child sits and cries.

40 Years on a iceberg, over the ocean wide, nothing to wear but pyjamas, nothing to do but slide, the wind is cold and icy, the frost began to bite, I had to hug a polar bear to keep me warm at night!

Love So Strong

The soldiers whip him, the cat of 9 tails
Pulling every scar out,
Leaving it bare, but soaked with blood.
They hit,
The bruise spreads immediately
Like water, but with pain.
Whips bite at him,
Trying to take it all,
And ugh, the whip,
It takes, takes his side and bites the flesh,
Tearing as much as it can take

.
He screams, he cries,
He can’t stand it.

The look in his eye,
The other you cannot see,
It is swollen, black, blotchy, and shut.
The eye you can see
Makes me cry
And will make you.
He has only been through half the pain.
Yet his good eye still tells me,
He only does it because of his
love.

I close my eyes, I want to pray,
but my mind doesn't know what to say.
Much like Pearl harbor, so many years ago,
so many gone with one fatal blow.
There are no words to explain,
there are no words to ease the pain.
To those who gave their lives,
Mothers, Fathers, Husbands and Wives,
to all whose lives today did cease,
may your soul find instant peace.
We will honor you and the life you gave,
as a Patriot of "The Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave."

this is in remembrance of septemeber 11

Total Disbelief

I stare in total disbelief,
heart torn with instant grief.
Plumes of black smoke fill the air,
marking a building no longer there.

Have faith that everything will be okay.
Have hope that love is near.
Dream big, even though.. sometimes dreams dont come true.
no matter what you do, believe in yourself and in others.
Have trust, even though it may betray you.
Give your heart out at a vunlerable stage..
knowing you gave it your all, and made it what it was. wear your heart on your sleeve, knowing that whoever sweeps you off your feet, is gonna take care of you.
Have Faith, and Hope!
Think positive, cuz i said so.
lol

the gracefulness of one..
is not determined by how she(or he) show herself (or himself).
but its by the certain way she (or he)acts...
it doesnt matter if you got marks all over you arm, or you fall down alot,
or hit the table many times just when you were getting up.
your you. your graceful in everyway.
people make mistakes, but thats what makes us perfect in our own little way...
:D

Grows with indescribable joy-
And flowers with commitment.

Okay, everybody, is anyone else here entering the Chinese New Year Competition? If you are, I would really love to know what you putting in as an entry!
This is what I've entered, and if it wins, great but i'm doing it for my love of poetry.
What Is True Love?
True Love is in the heart of the beloved,
True Love is seen by those who are blinded.
True Love is like a war-
Easy to start
Hard to finish
Impossible to forget.
True Love is like a flower
It is planted with a kiss..

So worried
A dark cloud above my head
It chokes me
It hurts me
What's wrong?
Stupid question.
But the dark cloud
Is clouding my head..
Take care you say
I say it to you
But I don't think you care
About taking care
To not do things
That I know you'll regret..

bleeding your name..
reading your poems..
choking on words.. not yet spoken..
today.. i sit.. and think of everything in my life..
and you.
i bleed just to escape.. but theres no escaping.
my feels my regrets are still there.
bleeding my heart out.. wont help much..
just more pain..
i will forever remember the memories we had..
i will forever miss you.
you will have a place in my heart now and forever.
i miss you..

Today I Stand!-
i stand still,
looking upon the world.
so much hate and love in it.

people cry,
people kill,
people die,
people with heartless souls walk upon this planet.

i shall not be one.
i shall love with my heart.
be the best i can.
today i stand.
and walk away from this pain and suffering.
today i stand!

i dont seem to understand.
why do you make me wonder?
dont know what i am feeling.
probably numb yet falling.
but i am reaching.
its the end of a story.
unsolved and still a mystery...

~Take A Bite~
"Go on, take a bite!"
The old witch cackled;
The girl bowed her head low
Her arms and legs shackled.

She shut her mouth firm
And turned her head away;
The witch hissed slowly
She would kill her today.

Be it the crisp bite
Of poisoned apple;
Be it the hard stone edge
Of the forgotton chapel.

Snow White is a lie
A web spun with deceit
Her mouth now spills toads
The honey spilled once sweet.

it's a new day.
ill put a smile on your face.
when i see you.
thats all it takes.
you made my day babe.
everyday is a new best day for me,
cause every moment i spend with you is a whole new meaning to me.
i love you. theres nothing else i can say to tell you how im feeling.
i wanna shout it out to the world.
girl your special.
the only one in my heart.
the only one in my mind.
i love you.
there aint a thing in the world that can stop me from loving you.

i love Katrina!!!!
