Hello, all!
SO, due to unfortunate circumstances, my Wattpad account has been acting up, and I no longer have a place to publish my poetry. Then I thought, “how fun would it be to have a poetry collab blog? I haven’t seen one of those before!” Is anyone up for it? Here are some of my favorite pieces of work, so you can see my style:
tricks of the light
her smiles seemed
to illuminate the night
but all her smiles
were tricks of the light
it was real at first
i loved you
with all of my heart
i loved you so much
i was blinded from the start
too happy to see
the cloth you pulled over my eyes
then you shot my heart
and left it there to die
of all the illusions
yours was the worst
because i think it was real at first.
back to me
I keep searching through
the memories
hoping one will bring you back
to me.
cinderella
the ashes caressed her face,
forever burning her a new name
one where she could feel like a princess for a day
then she lost her shoe,
but a prince found it anew
the crystal glass slipper
fit for none other
except her
who had been a princess
for more then a day
because her heart
wore the crown
that royalty
made
feedback is appreciated, as always. If you are willing to host a collab blog with me, please put some of your poetry in the comments, so I can see your writing style and such. I’m looking for someone whose poetry style compliments my own, they bring out the best in each other. So we can become our own best poetry selves, right? 😉
your poet,
april
I’m not a great fan of poetry (in my mind, somehow they always have to rhyme), but I love your Cinderella poem! Especially the ‘because her heart/ wore the crown/ that royalty/ made

Hey April!
I would love to host a collar blog! Oh, and I forgot to mention, I think I don’t want to do the Write Too Much blog anymore, since we’re having a hard time keeping up on posting. So back to your post, I would LOVE to do this. I feel like our poetry style is similar, but mine is a bit more… I dunno, something seems different. Anyhow, here is a poem I wrote…
It’s so dark
that means seldom light.
Leaving edges stark.
It disturbs my sight.
Once in awhile,
through my doors
a ray of light creeps
Across the floors,
it pours and weeps.
Trudges and wallows
along the curtains.
Though no sound follows.
Of this I am certain.
I fear the dark,
but ne’er see anything aside it.
What does in it lark?
If only it could be lit.
People fear the dark.
Because they fear the thought
Of not knowing.
Light, I sought.
Thus fear they’re sowing.
If only I had some more light
to shed upon my heart.
To let me have flight.
To let me see skies art.
I really hope I can do this with you! If there is anything else, just let me know!

Haha, yes! I would love to host a collab blog with you! Your poetry is so good! Yeah, WTM didn’t work out… I made the site private, so people can see our past postings, but would you mind writing a post about shutting it down? I’m sorta busy right now…

Great! Thank you, so much! unfortunately, it didn’t. Of course, yes. I can write a post saying farewell from the girls. Do you want me to create the site and design it? I would love to do it, if I can.

HIGH SCHOOL drama about boys? Um… that doesn’t really happen anymore, i don’t think. thats more middle/elementray school. high school drama is about… other things, i’d rather not type. at least from what i;ve observed.
