Be kind, please rewind.
Truth Storm
This is just this random poem I came up with when I was looking out my window today....I felt like weather like this deserves some sort of memento or something. The idea of truth hidden by snow and mist has always seemed interesting to me, so I decided to write about it. I hope you like it! I'm not that good at writing poems, but I tried!


Truth Storm
A whirlwind sent when someone grinned
A maelstrom of wispy white powder
Something stirs on the Eastern Wind
And the shouts of nature get louder

The rooftops all layer away
And the queen of snow keeps crying
The people all seem to sway
Now every emotion is flying

Nothing to see but a swirling blanket
A message sent in trust
This warning says we can't just fake it
We can't hide in the whitening dust

To face the Truth is to confront a snowstorm
To wipe the lies from the shelves
To look in the eye of how we were born
And to learn to trust ourselves.

I ditto everything Emma said!!! It's amazing. And what did I tell you about dissing your poetry writing skills?! I feel so stu-, uh, I mean silly. What I was thinking when I was out in the snow is, "Goddamn it! I got snow down my shirt again!!" Aren't I so poetic and graceful?! stare

What do you mean you can't write poetry?

THIS IS AMAZING!!! I love it. I love it. I love it. I.LOVE.IT.

I want to marry it I love it so much.

Okay. Maybe not.

Wow.....
If it gets CLAIRE enthused than I guess it can't be THAT bad... sweatdrop Thank you!! I'm flattered, really! It's just that usually when I post poems people don't comment, not a single person, so I figure they must be so gosh-darned terrible that no one wants to tell me. sweatdrop

Honestly, it's just because we can be so goddamned lazy. Not because you're bad. I really really loved that poem you showed me in our pm!!

*blush* thank you.... redface that's really sweet!

I liked the poem you showed me too! It was surprising, cause I've never read any writing of yours like that, and I thought it was REALLY good.
