New poetry competition!
New poetry competition!
It's really just continuing the last one, but I don't think a whole lot of people are checking that thread anymore. So here goes--
The new theme is music! You can write about how music makes you feel, or what it is. You can write about a musical instrument, or playing in part of an ensemble... or Hamilton...
Anyway, be creative, and have fun!
(I will be judging on Wednesday the nineteenth of October, so please have them submitted before then :)

I'm entering!!!
~~~
It is a tall arch
Evanescent and fleeting
Tall and magestic
It's a waterfall
Opalescent with shimmers
Most colorful one
Stretching over me
Like a doorway to heaven
Paradise's gates.
It is a rainbow
Disappearing so quickly
Pretty while it lasts

New constest: Pick a song, and write a poem which corresponds with that song. Feel free to use the songs lyrics.

This is more of a song with changed lyrics... At least, I wrote it to the tune of the song 'As Long as You Love Me' by Justin Beiber. Typically, I dislike most of his music, but this song's tune just sort of fit. And... Um... This is based off of how I've actually been feeling these past few weeks.
I'm under pressure
Seven billion people in the world trying to fit in
Keep it together
Smile on your face even though your heart is frowning
But hey now, you kno-o-ow
We both know it's a cruel world
And I'm scared to take chances
Nobody loves me
I feel like I'm starving
I feel like I'm homeless
I may well be broke
Nobody loves me
I ain't no platinum
I-i-i deserve
No-o-o hope
Nobody loves me...
Nobody loves me...
I'll be a soldier, fighting every second of the day until I can't, no
I say don't stress, don't cry, I have lost my wings, can't fly
I need to hold a hand
Nobody loves me
I need to restart
I need a friend
Or somebody new
Nobody loves me...
