A tidbit about me.
I have been writing poems for about, give or take 5 years now.
Started writing in 2011

I learned the basics of being a poetry teacher from a woman called Amberly Laverick
and finally. I have performed 3 poetry recitals and have had my poems printed on 2000 brochures
in my town/city.

Here is some older samples I used to write.



The Warm Touch Of Serenaded Honey



I will love you forever and a day.



If I could touch your memory, let it sing out proud!



Nonsensical and sticky is the aura surrounding me



I notice a change in the weather’s patterns



Forecasted a beautiful harmony of music



Dripping wet on my mind, sugar spun hills give out tempting offerings.



Not worth sighing away the heat, it gives a sensation of trust.



Within myself, I value the trials I must endure



An image worth keeping, long for its embrace until night comes.





Sleepless Nights and Haunted Memories



My dreams escape me through a florescent needle



Burning crystals sink deeper into my head.



Still I stir from overbearing nightmares



It’s the scent of hopelessness in the air, the stench of failure



I repel all around me when I awaken



Lingering in the darkness, eternally lost to the desperation within.



Savoir the last drawn breath.




My tears cannot reach you. They fade into the scenery I helped formulate.



An image of death, painted on the canvas of loneliness




Cruelty of the Silent Curtain



Admiring the storm from a distance.



The colours torn away, lost in its own brilliance




A smile is revealed through the cracks of a wall.



Shining on a rough surface of glass.



Blinding all that meet its gaze.



I inject a wave of nausea into its skin.



To let it unfold its facade upon the world.




Merciless hymns reign in my ear



I spiral out of control, soaked in the flood of misery.



Wet and tired, I lie perfectly still



Waiting for the vultures to feed on my ripe flesh.



Enjoy them

The Warm Touch Of Serenaded Honey
This is an awesome title!

I think Sleepless Nights and Haunted Memories is my fave. I especially liked "My tears cannot reach you." It's pretty powerful imagery!

That's awesome that you've actually performed at poetry recitals! :O Public speaking freaks me out, let alone trying to say something as personal as poetry in front of people. Good on you!

Thanks Sarah! Glad you like them!
I have performed in front of people
and I was scared at first.
Then I got used to it in time.

MuffinLad I apologise for never happening upon this thread. I love your poems so much. o.o They're really well worded. A little depressing, but very good. I found this line particularly effective:

I spiral out of control, soaked in the flood of misery.

Great imagery. :] I hope to see more!

Yes, I love how your imagery is very vivid--it really helps bring the poetry to life.
