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: never did give this a name!!

I used to wonder where the stars came from,
until the day I met you.
Now they just fade into the background
as you fill up my view.

Now I’ve no need for wishes
for you are 'The' dream come true,
a person of such beauty,
an example of what two loving people can do.

And so, if you catch me smiling
It's because I was thinking of you,
wondering if maybe you had fallen
straight from those stars, all my fears to undo.

I used to think I’d been in love
until the day I met you.
Now I see I never knew
the depths which true-love runs through.

So I have no need for promises
there's nothing more I can do,
it really isn’t a question at all
for I can’t help but love you true…

And so, if you catch me smiling
It's because I was thinking of you.
