How short shall you go?

    Okay, so whoever can come up with the shortest poem, with the most meaning wins.. its as simple as that...
    after a good, decent amount of poems have been entered, people will be able to vote, everyone will be allowed 2 votes, but only one of the two will be allowed to go towards a poem that they submitted...

    I haven't decided on the prize yet, but i will think about that more when the time comes!

    thanks and good luck!

    Serenity...
    A place that for long I never knew,
    Now something that I know so very well when I'm with you.

    Here she lies (epitaph)

    Here she lies not making a sound,
    soon to be quietly resting under ground.
    A wonderful mother and amazing wife,
    now has went to heaven for eternal life.

    Shortest poem i have written!!!

    ~My Mountain (Haiku)~

    Climb up my mountain.
    Please, come sit and talk with me.
    I am all alone.

    I guess......

    Just a scar upon my broken heart
    Is all you've left me with
    Now you're finally happy
    But I guess thats just how life is.........

    I cannot forget you..

    Why is it that?
    Even when I hate you so
    If you so much as
    Give me a glance
    I cannot help but smile
    As the knowledge of
    My love for you
    Returns once again

    Starlight, star bright,
    Only star I see each night.
    I wish, I wish upon a star,
    To get rid of my endless scars.
    I wish upon the glittery white,
    Stop my endless pain tonight.

    Without Music

    Music sheets left blank
    Violin unstrung
    Birds with no sound
    Ears panicking in fright

    If we did not have music,
    The world would be strange.

    Fade Away

    Memories
    stay with me each night and day
    Fear
    just never let me go away
    Pride
    gone astray

    Life
    stood still till i turned gray
    Love
    just never came my way
    And I
    fade away
    fade away

    This flower is so beautiful in the rain.

    Please don't cut just let it grows my Dear.

    You may destroy its beauty if you cut.

    I want to keep it lasts longer in time.

    Men say children are money and time wasting
    If our aim in life is for saving
    We should not have any child

    My real face,

    I want to be with you, always.
    With you I want to spend my days.
    With you I can show my real face,
    Beside you is forever my place.

    Ashes And Dust

    Here down below the face of the crust
    there's a horizontal clay with open eyes
    and on the other side people hardly trust
    while they walk ignoring our silent cries

    trying to find a difference between love & lust
    as flashback runs behind my eyes again
    sleeping here with my own ashes and dust
    visualizing you driving someone else insane

    emotionless

    && being emotionless may be better then feeling brief happiness only to feel prolonged pain later...
    In the end it all comes down to one thing --you..

    DREAM

    Forever lost,
    Never knowing,
    Never lost,
    But always knowing,
    Flying high,
    Above the clouds,
    This is a dream,
    So wake up now...

    Without a Doubt

    I pray the day never comes
    when you feel the need
    to ask
    if I still love you...

    I want you to always
    see it in my eyes
    feel it in my touch
    hear it in my voice
    and forever
    without a doubt
    know it in your heart.

    Crash Down [Haiku]

    The waves crash down hard,
    Causing motion, They sway back,
    And crash down once more.

    She was an inevitable beauty. Suspect her
    Up to no good. When the radio played
    Songs for this siren. Paint doubts the starving
    Artist sleeves in her scars. Wiccan goddess,
    Naive teenage Southern belladonna.

    Silence the bleating and pewter the face
    Powder the sunlight and knit the lace
    Polish the world-enticed by the smell
    Hear the coughing of angels trapped in the knell

    Love Left a Memory (Haiku)

    Silver tear drops fall
    Just a faded memory
    Like dust in the wind

    Daddy told me he hated me today
    I said "Tell me something new"
    Daddy told me he wished I died instead of mom
    I said "I do too"
    Daddy said he was going to kill me
    He's thought about it for years
    I said "Cry me a river,
    So I may drown in your tears"

    More than words......

    More than words can say....
    I miss you
    More than words can say....
    I want you here with me
    More than words can say....
    I want you by my side
    More than words can say....
    my heart aches
    More than words can say....
    I LOVE YOU

    She's screaming into the phone,
    with tears falling from her eyes.
    And as the other end becomes quiet,
    she knows this is goodbye.
