I'm sick of reading the same things

Why do all of the poems on this site say the same things? I'm getting tired of reading about "angels from above" and other soon to be cliches like anything with the words 'roses' and 'porcelain'. Now, I'm not trying to rag on people who write about these things. But they all sound the same, and I'm sure you (whoever you are) don't want your poems sounding the same as everyone else's. Please, guys, lets be original, shall we?

lol

shall we? 'say the people'

There are alot of original writers on here

From Illu's A poet's wish

"Make the sand moist with my eye's dew
to soak every flying grain with my tears
and beg the sand
to hold the drops of my passion forever
then maybe,
one day a traveler from the Endless Caravan would
taste my words again...
and his heart would whisper into the sky"

And how much more beautiful can a piece be.

You just need to search hard to find originality or a fresh new take.

it sounds boring when you read the same things? For me, as long as i can feel the words that the writers wrote, it's still ok with me. If they make a good poem out of it, even using the same words repeatedly, then they're good.

^^ i agree with you totally. and sometimes you can take the same words and make them have a totally different meaning anyway, so they wont be the same...

Seriously..
There are a lot of amazing writers on this site..
I know plently who can take a cliche topic and mend it into an orignal piece.
Get out there and READ a little. It won't kill you.

^ Oh yeah? Well take THIS!

crystal tears fell slowly
down her porcelien cheek...
the pain inside
was too much to bear.

she searched, sadly
for her only release
the crimson lines forming
to drip like her tears.

Booyah. It's a masterpiece of my own making. Dated... 30 seconds ago. Feel free to add, as long as it's bad.

Ah. Speaking as a writer who if rarely understood, I can say that for many people, the kinds of generic poems that some of you find so boring, as unfortunately for the reader, the perfect way for some people to express themselves...because in a poetic way, that is how they think.

It's not everyone who can write like me for instance...ho ho ho....

You'd be better off making threads to help people expand their understanding of metaphor etc...
