I Write Poetry
I've written a few poems an posted them here. I don't know if they are any good, but each one means something personal to me, and I hope they're universal enough that other people can see themselves a little.
Here they are in no particular order (Title, link, short snippet of the poem):

A ghost rose amid my mind tonight
And moaned aloud, moaned aloud,
About the past and you and pain
About force and anger and chains...

https://similarworlds.com/4229681-I-Have-Something-to-Say/1540110-Darkness-cold-and-death-Winter-is-coming-With-icy
Darkness, cold, and death
Winter is coming
With icy fingers that
Clutch at your wrist and
Drag you down...
[b][c=#BF0000][center][big]FOR SB, WHEREVER YOU ARE[/big][/center][/c][/b]
(I really miss this girl!)
https://similarworlds.com/4229681-I-Have-Something-to-Say/1186913-For-SB-Wherever-You-Are-There-is-an-emptiness-in
There is an emptiness in the room
Where once pealed laughter
And praise and love
That stifles the soul and drives
The heart down and down and down...
[b][center][big]SADNESS CREPT[/big][/center][/b]
https://similarworlds.com/4229681-I-Have-Something-to-Say/1160456-Sadness-crept-up-on-padded-feet-And-curled-three
Sadness crept up on padded feet
And curled three times
And settled in her lap,
Fuzzy and warm and purring...
[b][c=#BF0000][center][big]ON THE EDGE[/big][/center][/c][/b]
https://similarworlds.com/4229681-I-Have-Something-to-Say/1133746-She-stood-on-the-edge-of-heaven-and-hell-Toes
She stood on the edge of heaven and hell,
Toes curled over the emptiness below,
Eyes raised and seared by the glory of heaven,
Eyes raised but heart sinking low...
[b][c=#BF0000][center][big]UNIVERSAL SECRET[/big][/center][/c][/b]
https://similarworlds.com/8239718-I-Want-You-To-Write-A-Poem-Off-the-cuff-Right-Here/1072116-The-dice-rolled-and-the-Universe-opened-to-me-To
The dice rolled and the
Universe opened to me
To you
And it whispered,...
[b][c=#BF0000][center][big]TWO MIRRORS[/big][/center][/c][/b]
https://similarworlds.com/4537559-I-Write-Poetry/1116671-The-curtain-parted-And-she-caught-her-image-in-the
The curtain parted
And she caught her image in the mirror
And saw pain, scars, humiliation
And a canyon within her soul so deep and dark
That even the sun shied away...
[b][c=#BF0000][center][big]THE FIRST TIME[/big][/center][/c][/b]
(An over emotional poem about the first day of high school. I was a little dramatic. :) )
https://similarworlds.com/5-Education/1066664-Its-the-first-time-Its-the-first-day-And-nothing
It's the first time... Edit
It's the first day
And nothing seems to be ok.
People crowding all around,...
[b][c=#BF0000][center][big]BLOCKS OF ICE[/big][/center][/c][/b]
https://similarworlds.com/4229681-I-Have-Something-to-Say/1003295-Heat-rose-from-the-pavement-Rolling-across-her
Heat rose from the pavement
Rolling across her face
Sweltering along the boulevard
Striding at a pace...
[b][c=#BF0000][center][big]ONE QUESTION, TWO QUESTIONS[/big][/center][/c][/b]
https://similarworlds.com/1005112-I-Love-to-Write-Poetry/890851-One-question-Two-questions-And-the-answers-flowed
One question
Two questions
And the answers flowed
Like rain water through a gulley,
And we learned our fear...
[b][c=#BF0000][center][big]DAZZLED AND DAMNED [/big][/center][/c][/b]
(This is the whole poem)
My senses dazzled and damned
By your slow beauty, your soft blooms,
And I spiral into your realm--
Captive of care
Slave of sensuality
Prisoner of passion--
Like light lost in a black hole,
Like loving you even when you are gone.
[b][c=#BF0000][big]WHY ARE YOU...?[/big][/c][/b]
https://similarworlds.com/30-Miscellaneous/1778861-Why-Are-You-Why-are-you-mean-and-harmful-Hurtful
Why are you mean and harmful
Hurtful and haughty
What makes you nosy
And nasty and naughty?
Why are you worried
About the details of our lives
About our every move
About all that junk and jive?...
