Practice.2- Ballad Poetry!
Now, we all have some practice on how to write a quatrain. Let's see if we can write beautiful ballads!!!
An Endless Rain
I stand by in the clouds.
As heavy thunder rolls in,
as misty rain falls in shrouds,
hiding the sunlight which is now put to an end.
One single tear drops down my cheek,
as I watch you standing there,
as you did for many weeks,
wondering why I care.
You tore my life into shreads,
you broke my heart,
but I picked up my life that was thousands of threads,
I placed together my heart that was tons of parts.
Then you looked above,
and I saw your face.
You were shining with a moment of love.
As you were radiant with God's grace.
Then finally you closed your eyes,
and said" Please lord, release me from this pain."
"My friend has tried many times,
but has failed like an endless rain."

Empty
The invisible man waits
Waits for the pending silence-
The refuge never meant to come
The calm concealed by chaos
He has been lost
Unseen and forgotten
A blank memory
And empty in their eyes
He has seen them all
He watches the lies
They are blind in an empty world
A chaotic meaninglessness
So he searches-
Searches for the awaiting peace
Hidden behind their empty life
Growing farther away.

choas can not be avoided
i't will doom you if you try
it will destroy anything
willing in it's way
come to it
you can't give into it
destruction it causes
between the worlds
fight fight fight against it
it still will never work
guns swords weapons cannot stop it
it will just cause it
a force stronger then any man
could ever be or any mere dream
you will be hunted by it even if you run
it won't show sorrow none at all

Finally another practice xD
Inside the mind
He lingers upon a single thought,
Wondering what will come next.
Wasting away in doubt,
Loosing sight of life.
Scenarios that he creates,
Follow routes of his inner self.
Creating links that bind,
His ever growing mind.
Wishing that it wasn't so hard,
Quality time simply out of reach.
Remembering again the past times,
Falling apart once more confined.
Weary of the time at hand,
Searching for a reasons to exist.
Yielding to a giving hand,
Reaching out finally set free.

Forbidden Memories
All the things that he said
Keeps on playing in my head
All those things that he said
Makes me cry in my bed.
All the hurts that he caused me,
All the pain that he repaid me,
All the suffering that he offered,
Triggers me to do the forbidden.
I will keep on running
I will keep on screaming
I will keep on escaping
From the memories of him.
I will keep on crying
Tears continuously falling
I will keep on laughing,
Until mind meets insane.

Haunted Dreams (No Good)
Dreams opens up wonders
Makes things appear to be seen
Memories or over the future
I sleep having happy dreams
But be awaken by a nightmare
Tears fall having visions of it
Alone in my room with no comfort
Hours up holding myself
I scream but no good
Blood lying on the floor
Die love ones everywhere
I cry and scream "It's not real!!"
But its no good
I feel him holding me
I hear his voice speak to me
But where I look around
I see no one there
Is my mind playing with me?
My dreams are haunting me
Makes me cry and scream
Yet its no good
Why these haunting dreams
Please make them go away.....
Re: Practice.2- Ballad Poetry!
You told me a lie,
You told me you'd never let me go free
A couple of months later, all I can do is sigh,
you threw me to the ground, six feet deep.
I spent three months digging
you spent that time in your room
you'd hope I'd be forgiving
but now, my anger will rise soon
Finally you know the truth.
I finally got it off my chest
What needed to be said came out in this booth,
now I can start life fresh

A feverish night over comes us
Plunging into bottles
Beauty’s bar has been lowered
By a six pack of ale
Laughs explode from our bellies
Belching out a song of drunken mastery
Reddened faces spell a story
Glazed over eyed comradery
Enjoying the night we won’t remember
Spilling honesty like wine
Moving unseen boundaries happily
Exposing benefits to disconnected friendships
Watching the night inch away
Using toilets as pillows
A cool surface to cool the nerves
Losing composure modestly
Eyelids yield to an unwelcome sun
Headaches giving evidence unclearly
An unquenchable thirst moves me
Unaware of last night’s intoxicated foxtrot
