revisiting classics...

Yeah, some of my best poetry were from the early days of quicksilverlining. I suppose it makes sense revisiting them, especially my personal favourites. I suppose a few people do appreciate reading these, though they are bloody amateurish. Not to say that Shakespeare was all that good at the beginning either, especially given his time of literary giants. I still think that amateur works tend to be more interesting because they are more personal and less structured. But that's just me.

Teardrops

Teardrops
Falling down
In dripping thoughts
Silent cries spot your eyes
Sobbing quietly
Pain withheld within
Away from prying
With no one hearing
Alone
Breaking of heart
Within the face of stone

Teardrops
Running down
In falling spirits
Painful thoughts haunt your mind
Yearning wistfully
Pain withheld within
Clutching tightly
With no one knowing
Alone
Breaking of heart
Within the face of stone

Teardrops
Flowing down
In sundered emotions
Joyless laughter fill your lips
Whispering soundlessly
Pain withheld within
Caged from touch
With no one feeling
Alone
Breaking of heart
Within the face of stone

Peace

Peace
Silence of the dark
With nothing stirring black
Silk smooth as thick as night

Tranquility
Stillness of stone
Lying without motion
Betraying no life

Deepness
Fathomless pools
Unending depths of glass
Held in eternal cold

Peace
Silence of the dark
With nothing stirring black
Silk smooth as thick as night

Calm
Unshaking solitude
Gentle breeze of quiet
Unwinding mosaic piece

Agelessness
Everlasting presence
Always beholding
Timeless passage

Peace
Silence of the dark
With nothing stirring black
Silk smooth as thick as night

Cut

The first is deepest
The second hurts as bad
The third teaches lessons learnt
And the fourth only shows you're sad
The fifth is a reminder
The six shows what you're worth
The seventh represents your abilities
And the eight is a symbol of your birth
The ninth and tenth only serve to show
That life is full of painful cuts,
The last is the final blow.

That should suffice for today, no? More coming soon. That is, if I do remember which ARE classics and which are junk.

Jin out.
