Sort of a poem. This is what always happens when I try to be poetic. I fail after the first stanza. I think that's the extent of my creativity. I can write one-liners, one stanza of a poem and that's it. *tears* Anyway, you guys out there can finish it. or join me in my pain. ahahaha...
ahem. my first stanza:
Tears unbidden flow,for a love that's gone.Loved but lonely soul,Where do you belong?The rest of my crazy thoughts just couldn't match up with the beauty of the first stanza, or it's rhythm. and it doesn't even rhyme anymore...... *more tears* I've forgotten all my literature! I can't remember the proper kinds of rhythms for poems anymore. so I can only try to fit every line into 5 syllables. *screams into pillow* My disjointed thoughts:
By the barren woods,
she lingers alone.
The rose in her hand
comforts her, wounds her.
The warm fleeting sun
was but a sweet dream.
Faded memory
stolen by the wind.
She shivers with coldhaving known the sun.Lost wandering soul,Where are you to go?
Just needed to get this out of my system.

I don't think there's any hard and fast rule to writing poetry. For me, I think one bit about poetry is trying to pack in as much meaning as possible into every single word. And the ideas conveyed may not even be known to you. =)
