Poetry in Motion by ~Elf-Prosetry:iconElf-Prosetry:

Categories Literature > Poetry > General Poetry > Open




Crumpled paper, stained with tears
Fresh ink on my fingertips
Anguished scream, the page is flung
Like my body now upon my bed

This is poetry in motion

Tear drenched eyes, quivering lip
Trembling heart and soul
I clench my fist, curse your name
I've completey lost control

This is poetry in motion

Crumpled sheet, stained with tears
Fresh blood on my fingertips
Desparate gasp, the deed is done
Lifeless body now upon my bed

Poetry no longer in motion

My description as first submitted at that time:
"Uhmm... I wrote this late last night. Started out as a silly idea of throwing a poem against a wall - poetry in motion (haha.. okay at least pretend I'm cute n funny) but it turned into something deeper, darker, and... well you can read it. It really was a spur of the moment thing when I couldn't sleep last night. Took like, 10ish minutes to write. Just kinda flew together on paper.

Don't get all weird on me, okay? Just cuz it's a little bit morbid doesn't mean I'm feeling suicidal or having major issues or whatnot. I'm okay. I promise."

Ok. I couldn't help but let out a chuckle or two at this poem. XD The first stanza followed by "This is poetry in motion" is hillarious. XD I feel like that at times. Writing something, realising it sucks and then throwing it. Except for me its "Moving Essays" >_< I hated writing essays for my 121-122 english class. XD Never had to do the one for 123 since I left for Thailand! w00t. Retaking that class when I get back though. (note: took it at my high school xD)

Ooo. I likes it. :D Bah, who cares if it's morbid? We don't feel like peaches and cream all the time, and people who do... well uh... you suck?
