I wanted to practise again so I'll be doing some freebies. I write tons of poetry for my characters (from their perspectives or about them) and I thought that might be something other people would be into.
Some examples of my poetry (older stuff but still v a l i d)
| “If only I could pluck a star out of the sky to be by my side for eons, but eons would come and go. The sky would be rendered black from my pickings and the stars’ last songs would fade into time.” | “My skin is soft from the gentle showers of my agony. Perplexed; my thoughts run to the soothing corners of my mind. Why must I suffer from your flaming tongue? With insidious intent, you tear the foundation from my withered grasp. A swallowed bronze key was nothing against a battering ram. No broken promises did I speak, yet you provide these stark flaws for my truth. Did I ever say my image was perfection? My greying temples meet with wrinkles forged in time. I do not claim to hold a golden wisdom but what I speak could be laced with silver. Why must I withstand a hurricane of daggers? I slapped your hand, so you break my bones. Don’t swallow time with hate in your belly. These wasted minutes slip through flame; turned to ashen memories. Could you not have charmed your words to singe a little less? My skin is soft from the gentle showers of my agony.“ | “There’s rust in his marrow eating his bones; The clinking and clanking of metal all grown. A copper conundrum sits upon his skull. His eyes are silver, metallic and dull. Two-pistoled Tin Man wearing two feathers; Red-dusted rawhide and beaten down leathers. Red coil for muscles twisting past gears; An aluminium Stetson sits above cold ears. Steam-powered cowboy collecting fine dust; Golden cigars made with black nicotine trust. Bronze-booted puppet adorned with bronze bullets; Tight-jointed trigger finger, can’t seem to pull it. But his teeth are pearls and his heart’s made of jade; Of metal our Tin Man’s not completely made.” |
You can request stuff for a character of yours, about what the poem would be about, etc. I can also do Acrostic like below.
“Bury your thoughts behind
Renditions of you, your fame, your wealth.
Unglue the doors easily shut because you
Can’t control yourself.
Everything was made by you.”
NOTE: My poems done here will be quick and perhaps not the best versions but still pretty. If I were to be commissioned, they'd be more "proper."
Your writing is lovely!
Maybe one of this guy? And maybe his thoughts on Daemon? I can imagine something like how he doesn't get how humans think, why Daemon feels sympathy or sadness whenever he (Wicke) kills another being. Something along those lines but it doesn't necessarily have to be about that. Or just do whatever you want !! :D
Thank you for the opportunity! Good luck with practice ( ' v')/
Would you be up to do Jake you can do what ever you want or you can pick any of my other characters that interest you.
You're writing seems interesting ^^ Perhaps you would like to write a poem about these two: Vax and Dmitrios, from Vax's perspective? It could be about his feelings for Dmitrios; since in the end of their story they'll become a couple, but during their relationship Vax would realize he loves dmitrios but hes convinced on how much he does. Or, you can write from Dmitrios's POV, expressing how much he loves Vax (because he is in love with him lol)
I hope this makes sense and thankies if you consider ^^;;
Hanae I fell into writing Daemon's POV (third person)! I hope you like it. <3
"Neverland"
Never ever did he think he'd land in Neverland
For what's a boy to think, to feel, to understand-
When a portal brought a mortal to this land?
Wicke, are you wicked or wildly unique?
Take a moment to cut these strings,
For I can't seem to think.
I'm a lost boy in Neverland,
But you're no Peter Pan.
Take a moment to cut these strings,
For I can't seem to stand.
A normal in an abnormal land.
Kloshbet Free-verse for you! <3 It involves his death and the car crash.
"Lost"
The cutting of the wheel in my abysmal delusions. I scream out in a fire crash so loud, I'm rendered mute.
My heartbeat stutters out like the words on my tongue. Lost to the silence, a neverending blackness so profound.
Lost.
Oh my gosh I love it! I especially love that Peter Pan reference :') Thank you!! May I add this to Daemon's lit?
IM SCREAMING HERE YOUR POETRY IS WONDERFUL!! keep rereading what u wrote dkhdjgh
Could you maybe do an acrostic, or perhaps just a poem for my girl Enya Pi, please? She's a social shepherd that loves to know everything that's happening in her city, and honestly just a fun character uwu I mean, she did have some sad stuff in her life too, but that's not her main focus! Enya also is easily startled and quick to jump to a conclusion that a person is a bully, but that only makes things funnier because of the stuff she does XD
if u prefer to write sad/deep stuff and can't do it with enya, i could link u my edgy character lol
yOUR POETRY IS EVERYTHING!
Infinity is one of my few characters who are actually good for poetry, most of his backstory is on his profile. His personality isn't exactly set in stone, but he has more of a calm, think things through kind of personality, he also heavily regrets the wish to the stars he made long ago.
Your poetry is lovely. I especially like the star imagery in the first one. I've had characters in the past write poetry, but I never actually thought about writing them about my chars.
The first character that comes to mind is Ishvi, especially his perspective on falling and coming back from his own death. And if you want to know how he died, pm me. It's not gory, just sensitive.
Or Maarab, who still considers himself a weapon, but has no one to wield him, and is stuck in a society that looks down on his gratuitous violence.
Jokerin I finished your acrostic!
Eternal sunshine on cloudy days,
Night is made to be fleeting.
Young and bursting with sun rays;
All alone in a city, dreaming.
Playful and happy;
Innocence so sweet.
puppybluez I finished a poem for you. <3
"Infinity"
My crown is heavy, filled with torn wishes made to the glittering sky.
Selfish screams heavanward, opening a rift into the night.
"Whom, dare I ask, whispers to the white?"
I pray for horses and castles, a kingdom; only mine!
"You're a child with paws that can chisel and mold."
Give me a large garden and a sceptor to hold.
"A wish once granted, cannot be undone."
If my dream was empty, I wouldn't have wished one.
"Here child, rule this kingdom of Infinity."
Dear Stars, what have you done to me?
