Poetry

An outlet for players whose creativity extends beyond the board. Post your original works here!

The posting of song lyrics is not the purpose of this board and as such please refrain from doing so. Exceptions can be made to this rule if you are the copyrighted owner of the lyrics and the lyrics are not found offensive by the majority of the population.
This board is a place to post your original works of poetry and prose and also a place for discussion of poetry and related areas.

We have received word from Fencer that other's poetry can be posted to this board. These are the two conditions:
1) When someone posts a known copyrighted poem, he must add the author's name as well
2) If the author is not known, the poem can be posted without problems

Emne: An Original by Maggie #2 - "God?"

If there really was a "God"
would the world be in such shape?
If there really was a "God"
could we never need escape?

If there really was a "God"
would people live in fear?
If there really was a "God"
could life be held as dear?

If there really was a "God"
would ghettos never be?
If there really was a "God"
could ALL mankind be free?

If there really was a "God"
would no man be in pain?
If there really was a "God"
could the world not act insane?

If there really was a "God"
would there be no thing as war?
If there really was a "God"
could there be no word as poor?

If there really was a "God"
would we all love each other?
If there really was a "God"
could ALL men be my brother?

If there really was a "God"
would He understand my query?
If there really was a "God"
could He know I've grown too weary?

Emne: An Original by Maggie - "Missing"

There was something that was missing
for a long, long time for me.
It wasn't a need, a feel, a want;
whatever it was, wasn't meant to be.

It wasn't something I could name
or put my finger on.
I thought I might of found it
but already it seems it's gone.

You touched me in a place so rare,
so deep, so real, so fine...
A place that belongs to no "man"
a place that's only mine.

My voice you may never hear again,
that smile you may never see,
and whether it matters to you or not,
you'll always have part of me...
