Poem about life, my recent most heart taking poem.

This poem took me 20 days and 20 nights to write, edit and be happy with, so i really hope you like it.

 

I’ve seen the world with these two eyes.

A movie played inside my mind.

I’ve traveled the seas in half the time

Without ever leaving home.

 

I’ve spread my wings but didn’t fly

I’ve touched heaven, but I didn’t die

Had the chance to ask God why

Without ever receiving an answer.

 

I’ve count the stars and made to ten

Lost track and had to start again.

People laughed, but that’s how we make friends

Without ever knowing their name.

 

I’ve loved completely and watched them leave

I tell the story—some don’t believe

Let them go or did you flee?

Without seeing what tomorrow brings.

Apparently, have you considered taking to poetry contests? I entered my Raven Parody in the 2008 poetry contest on poetry.com, I'm a semi-finalist right now, sometime next week, I'll be getting info about if I'm a finalist or not..

 

here's the poem I submitted..

 

[align=center]Everday upon my after school hours

I sit in my room within the highest tower

And in my room, I sit on my throne

The throne in which I sit in front of my hard-ware drone

With the vision of a corpse within my memory core

Only this and nothing more.

 

And on this hard-ware drone I sit in front

Gathering my forces and resources as I prepare to confront

Conquering land and mineral points with relative ease

With loyalty at my side I do as I please

As my men charge forward they hear me from the shore

"Spill the gore," and nothing more

 

One-by-one my enemies fall

Until only one stands above it all

As my loyal men prepare to begin to charge

I click the button to make the screen enlarge

They shout a battle cry as they rush to war

"Quote thy Lord, 'Spill the gore.'"

 

With me as the victor and dominator of the world

I get out of my throne with a single little twirl

I head down the steps to find something to drink

and finished with the drink I rinse it in the sink

and head back up to my chamber door

because this is what I do, and none else more[/align]
