Author: somebody who will be anonymous
Subject: since I'm anonymous, you should be interested!

yes, well, you see, Kateryna wants to share some of her poems with you *wink wink nudge nudge* and she's too afraid to post anything on here, anonymous or other, so I'm doing it FIRST so that now Kateryna doesn't have an excuse :). And Matt, the Almighty Moderator, will SWEAR on here that he will not divulge the information of who is posting these anonymous stuff (I don't care if you know who I am however) because he has been known to do this in the past! And some people *cough* KATERYNA, TINA *cough* are afraid to share their works of wonder if he is not trustworthy. So here I begin, it's not my best, but I don't give a flip:
Screaming in silence
Shades of pain, seething rage,
White-hot tears
Shed in private
Alone it cries--
Beneath--creating--
Cold-hard stone
Blank faces and
Hidden grief-stricken masks
Enough to speak a
Smile without lips
But coldness can mask
And in it can find
Simplicity, worth breath--
Broken homes and
Broken spirits
Refine the prize
Or claim the blood.


k you can stop cringing now :)

chill out. It was all in good fun. And sorry, but get over yourself. Not all figments of writing--or life, for that matter--are as happy-go-lucky as you're trying to be. Ok? There is absolutely no reason for Matt to delete that message. And you know what, I will have quite a word with him if he does. Nobody's making voy unhappy right now except for you. Please don't start more drama.

I wouldn't say that it was unhappy....just that it's not the type of things that I personally like to read. But, whoever you are, I will read them because you are my friend. That was really good, although creepy.

haha thanks Dove, but you guys are missing the point of the poem. The message to be conveyed appears in the last several lines:
But coldness can mask
And in it can find
Simplicity, worth breath--
Broken homes and
Broken spirits
Refine the prize
Or claim the blood.

The coldness--as in ousting of people from life--ends up bringing out the simple presence in life. And think of "refine" as a verb. Broken homes and broken spirits refine the prize or claim blood. What do you think that means? Think of the line in Have I Done Any Good about preparing the mansions in Heaven. You think that could be the prize the poem refers to? The prize--as in the positive result of withstanding the trials. The blood--the negative. Suicide especially is what comes to mind. So think about it--the trials you go through, broken homes and broken spirits, either refine the prize that awaits you at the end of this journey, or claim the blood that you yourself spill.

Come on, you can do a better interpretation than that ;) don't let the dark words fool you. I wrote it in class after having a discussion with two of my classmates--one of them who's best friend shot herself last year, the other one who has the most screwed up life ever, and has found the simple pleasures in life to enjoy. These are strong kids. It stirred up some powerful emotions inside. Anyways, God bless y'all.

i think i know who it is. im good at catching clues. see, im not THAT dumb. heres what i found:this person writes poetry. this person has "left the group". this person has issues with the way you spell "y'all" (i think). and this person is a girl. so thats how i linked it to the person i think it is. ;) good detective work huh? actually, i just guessed. but it was fun. hahha. but whoever you are, why dont you say it? if your willing to express your feelings, and you want people to act differently after they are expressed, how do they know to treat differently? well, thats my tidbit for the uhhh, i was going to say the day but i dont normally say anything worth listening to every day, so im just going to say tidbit for the uhh year? sure. but maybe this isnt worth listening to. cuz sometimes i just ramble off and go off into the bushes and around the tree and over the rock and through the grass and.....

lol it wasn't THAT obvious tanner, you loser ;). Thanks for letting the rest of the world know, dork! Actually, I had like five people IM me right after I posted it and be like "that was you, wasn't it?" DUH, I don't really care that people know, lol. I don't want anyone to treat me differently, though--I never said that. I haven't "left the group", either, the group left me. But yeah, Tanner, scarily, you know me well lol. Tell Kateryna hi for me, since you know who I am, and why the heck hasn't she been home lately? ALRIGHT WHO'S HOUSE IS SHE AT! You stole her retards!!

Anyways, I'm leaving. Goodbye. My life is dull (see me ramble just like Tanner)....

MATT WILL KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT BECAUSE I SAID SO. And btw, if it causes more "drama", you can hang out with me and we'll form our own stake (lol). Seriously though, Matt, PLEASE don't tell, or I'll just have to share more dang annoying poetry with you. Actually, I'll do it right now, lol. Come onnnn, Kateryna, Tina, you PROMISED you losers!!
A voice echoes across the pages
He froze
Steadily the drum beats closer
There is music in silence
Crescendos on wings
Run with the breeze
Can you feel it roar?
I tremble
He breathes into me
Draw the silence
With your tears
It shatters
And fades into dreams.

[> Re: since I'm anonymous, you should be interested! -- my turn, 21:29:48 09/03/03 Wed

well well well... it's been a while since i've been on here.. i'll put a poem on here, i do say that it is pretty cheesy which should make it really easy to figure out who it's from. but i dont care if anyone knows who it is. but yeah. whatever! see if you can use your "detective skills" and find out who it is. Im sure some of you know though so it might not be that fun...

Your eyes are like a beautiful forest,
A forest I could be lost in forever.
They sparkle brighter than the brightest star,
Leading me to a place of comfort.

Some people say you're not that pretty.
I laugh and say,
"I know, she's much more than that."
With beauty to die for, you capture my heart.

You're on my mind all the time.
Heck, I even have trouble sleeping.
What I thought was something bad for my health
Actually keeps me striving to eb a better person.

You're one of the first people
To make all the trials seem worth it,
Being good is somehow easier.
It's all just great!

It's the thought of marrying someone like you
That keeps life positive and a success.
It's the thing that keeps me going
And keeps the world in place.

All I know
Is that I am so into you,
And that someday I'll be with someone like you.
And all my dreams will shortly fall into place becoming reality!

[> Re: since I'm anonymous, you should be interested! -- poem time... yay!, 11:45:18 09/04/03 Thu

so it still needs some work, but whatever!

I'll hold you forever,
Even deep into the night.
WHen things start looking sad,
I'll be there to make things right.
You're all I need,
To make a Heaven on Earth.
When your lips touch mine,
You save me from this bottomless hearth.
Your look rescues me
From utter despair.
Your vindication of love,
Something I feel in the air.
Nothing is tangible,
Because reality rending,
This dream
Is never-ending!

[> Re: since I'm anonymous, you should be interested! -- my turn again!, 11:51:06 09/04/03 Thu

so this poem im about to share is something that my dear friend wrote and I really like it because he was writing it for me.

I wondered what the point of this was
This life that makes no sense to me
I had no reason for leaving my bed
I couldnt even befin to see

My life went doenhill from there
And slowly I crept into the shadows
I hid the truth away from all
It's been so long that not even i know

But the day you saw me leaving the ground
Just to get another useless thing
You helped me up you took me in
WHen you hadn't even known me

I cried so long not knowing how
I'd been so cruel and you'd been so nice
I'm not worth it but you try anyways
I'd been down so long I was cold as ice

Listen to me I'm so sorry for all
The hurtful things I've done to you
Please don't let them come between us
I'll always tell the truth to you

What I'm really saying now
Is that you mean the world to me
All these words just can't explain
What everyone knows that you can't see.

Come and take a trip with me
To a land where love is free
Follow me into the light
Everything's going to be alright.
Just let go and take my hand
I will show you promiced land
Stay with me in paradice
Come on now, just can't be right.


TECHNO RULES!!!!
