PM Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 Let?s add up a bit of fresh air in this forum and rehearse for Valentine: post your favorite love poem: Meeting at Night By Robert Browning The gray sea and the long black land; And the yellow half-moon large and low; And the startled little waves that leap In fiery ringlets from their sleep, As I gain the cove with pushing prow, And quench its speed i' the slushy sand. Then a mile of warm sea-scented beach; Three fields to cross till a farm appears; A tap at the pane, the quick sharp scratch And blue spurt of a lighted match, And a voice less loud, through its joys and fears, Than the two hearts beating each to each!

zeusbheld Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 "not waving, but drowning" by stevie smith "Nobody heard him, the dead man, But still he lay moaning: I was much further out than you thought And not waving but drowning. Poor chap, he always loved larking And now he's dead It must have been too cold for him his heart gave way, They said. Oh, no no no, it was too cold always (Still the dead one lay moaning) I was much too far out all my life And not waving but drowning." if things get too cheerful up in here i'll post 'death fugue' by paul celan. or some of the crap written by fake hip-hop whiteboys on this site, that should be depressing enough.

CMG_UK Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 The other day (not this one) i read a poem that somebody wrote about love. it didn't really sound like a poem it sounded confused and it probably was, because love is as confusing as it gets, except when it's not, but i'll get to that. so here i am writing a poem (or something) about love (or something) just like a hundred thousand people (and maybe fishes or cats, too) have before me. we all try to make it sound like something new and we all believe that it is. i am inclined to believe, in fact that my love for you is amazing unbeatable conquering only its track record isn't so good so far. no one has loved you the same exact way that i have, and i will never love someone the same way again. i like the way i love you i am as afraid of it going away as i am of it staying i wish i could understand or i wish i could make you understand i don't know what it is i understand but it's something. i think love (i think love) is like something you realize and then don't remember ever not knowing. do you have a motherfucking phone number? i want to tell you things not anything in particular really just things, maybe about girls who eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. what i'm saying isn't important, just that i'm saying it to you and you're hearing it somehow though i think you stopped listening a long time ago where is my love? i guess it slipped past your heart and it's hangin' out in your belly somewhere. i want it back maybe just a little bit? if you don't have any of your own we can share mine. all i am asking is that you let me lay close enough to you that i can feel you move as you fall asleep all i am asking is that you make my body feel like it's doing something meaningful 'cause it really misses meaning something to someone all i am asking is that you love me please (Vrai) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

literature Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 "Love" :oops: KHALIL GIBRAN When love beckons to you follow him, Though his ways are hard and steep. And when his wings enfold you yield to him, Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you And when he speaks to you believe in him, Though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden. For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your growth so is he for your pruning. Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun, So shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth. Like sheaves of corn he gathers you unto himself. He threshes you to make you naked. He sifts you to free you from your husks. He grinds you to whiteness. He kneads you until you are pliant; And then he assigns you to his sacred fire, that you may become sacred bread for God's sacred feast. All these things shall love do unto you that you may know the secrets of your heart, and in that knowledge become a fragment of Life's heart.
