Siren's poetry book

Postby Siren of Lyrics » Thu Apr 01, 2004 4:15 pm

Hi, Siren here. I'm finally writing more poetry! This is my latest work.

The Angel from Out of Town

I was waiting for tomorrow
Hoping that it would come soon.
My heart was cold as stone.
Then I saw you and it melted
As the rain came pouring down
But there you were just standing
The loveliest I'd ever seen
Strange clothes you wore, could it be?
An Angel from Out of Town

As our eyes met there standing in the rain
Your gaze pierced my soul and
You read me like an open book
As our eyes parted ways
You sported a little smile
Then you turned and walked away
The Angel from Out of Town

I turned around to follow
To ask you for your name
But when I turned
You had gone
The Angel from Out of Town

The sun came out, the rain stopped
A dove flew in the air
Over the hills and far away
Were you really there?
The Angel from Out of Town


Please tell me what you think
"The Great Mizuti never lie. Only sometimes. Occationally. Every now and then."
~The Great Mizuti from Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean


"Cast your eyes on the ocean,
Cast your soul to the sea.
When the dark night seems endless,
Please remember me."
Dante's Prayer by Loreena McKennitt

Very pretty. ^_^ Nice imagery.
"So David said to Michal, "It was before the LORD, who chose me instead of your father and all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel. Therefore I will play music before the LORD. And I will be even more undignified than this, and will be humble in my own sight. But as for the maidservants of whom you have spoken, by them I will be held in honor."

2 Samuel 6: 21&22



"I am going to take this bucket of water and pour it on the flames of hell, and then I am going to use this torch to burn down the gates of paradise so that people will not love God for want of heaven or fear of hell, but because He is God."

Nice poem. I could say more, but then I could not be held responsible for the accuracy.

Siren is entering this poem in a local poetry contest, and she's really nervous about it.
They announce the results on the 26th, so keep your fingers crossed and wish her luck!

Hope you the best, Siren. ^_^ EDIT: BTW, I liked your poem.

[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE


You see into the deepest part of me ---

beyond the fog I hide behind.

You cast your light upon the shadows

that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.

You ease the pain when I am hurting,

and morbid visions from my past

pierce into the realm of Reason

as though I danced on blades of glass.

You grant me strength when I have fallen

and, once again, I've lost my way.

You take my hand in Yours and lead me

into the promise of a brand new day.

You bring order to all my chaos,

yet set my well-laid plans awry.

You place me on a firm foundation ---

then give me wings so I can fly.

You sand away my roughened edges

and polish all the dullest parts

until I stand before Your presence...

a newly-sculpted work of art.

You see into the heart within me,

right through my motives and selfish will.

And yet, in spite of all You see

You say You love me even still.

A new poem I have written called "Broken Promise"

Broken Promise
I walked into school that day
that's when I saw you
When you sat in front of me in class
All I could do was write your name

I remember it so clearly
When you asked me to the prom
I blushed and I was tongue tied
But I managed to stammer yes

I remember us in college
Two love birds in a tree
I remember when the war started
and took you away from me

You promised to come back for me
How gullible you were
To think the promise you made there
Was a promise you could keep

My story is a sad one
so don't get it in your head
that all stories have happy endings
You'd have to eat what you had said

Here I am still waiting
As 20 years go by
I look in the window just to see his face
His broken promise sour on my lips

How could I have been so stupid
To believe in happy endings
Love is like a rotten egg
love is never fair!
"The Great Mizuti never lie. Only sometimes. Occationally. Every now and then."
~The Great Mizuti from Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean


"Cast your eyes on the ocean,
Cast your soul to the sea.
When the dark night seems endless,
Please remember me."

You are a very VERY good poet. You should develope it and maybe it can become a way to express yourself. You also have very good rhythm. The phrases you use flow like song. Good job.

thanks anison. here's a limerick I wrote for class hope you like it.

Ned's Head
There once was a boy named Ned
Who was lying asleep in his bed
When some ceiling fell down
He wore a sad frown
For he now had a bump on his head


This is my only poem with a happy ending.

Taslin: Happy ending? What happy ending?

Wisdom of stars

The sky with immortal bonds
Will not last forever

Even a rock cold and hard
Will one day change

A river will alter it's course
to run down to the sea

At the end of every storm
There is a rainbow

Every cloud, no matter how dark
has A silver lining

On the day when everything comes to change
remember that...

Stars are mortal beings too
And one by one they will fall
No longer shining
Into darkness

Fo remember...
Do not be afraid of change
But like a cloud, look for the silver lining

So remember that...
Death is just another rain storm
And look for the rainbow beyond



this is a peom yah please comment

Very good. There was one portion that I think could be edited

Stars are mortal beings too
And one by one they will fall
No longer shining
But dull
Into darkness


I think you could leave out the >>but dull<<, as it doesn't really add anything and it kinda throws off the flow.

That's just my two cents, good poem.
