* current inspiration *
When I look at the sky,
I see all the stars twinkling.
There are like the people of this planet,
All emitting different types of light.
I want to stand out in that crowd,
And shine brighter than everyone else.
I close my eyes and swear,
I entrust my dream to a shooting star.

- closing song for Naruto Shippuden.

likes the colour orange and eating apples.
dislikes malicious house lizards and goldfishes that stare.
wishes to meet a unicorn, make friends with the sun, and grow roots.

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 cold

having 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. =)
