A Poetic Game (Collab)

by A Poets Handwriting aka ALISHA & Amy   Sep 7, 2012


Why do we shout?
So people will hear
And why do we scream?
Perhaps we feel fear
Why do we fight?
Sometimes it all just takes its toll
And why do we bite?
Perhaps we just lose control

Why have we done this?
Sometimes it's just for show
Have you just stole a kiss?
Maybe you will never know
Making up for what we've done?
Forgiveness is cherishable
Or what you've done?
Relationships are perishable

Is it like you dont care?
Our emotions can be concealed
Or like you're not really there?
Perhaps our intentions are revealed
Do you want to leave me?
Only time will really tell
How were we meant to be?
Since our hearts desire quelled

Did you steal my heart?
I think that you stole mine
Do you want to crush it apart?
I think that would be a crime
Did you "love" another?
Let's not pass out blame
Or was that your mother?
That would be a shame

Are you pathetic?
In my mind I might be
Or are you "athletic"?
That was just my plea
Want to look? Just one?
I think I might sneak a peek
Forget it! I'm DONE
My life became so bleak

    Nice collab of you two! I really support the question-and-answer style poems. It gives you the impression to get new knowledge. Well done.

    This was literally a "Poetic Game" in one of the dicussion forums - The questions provided - the answers to be filled in. It was a whole heap of fun. I didn't even know where the piece was going until I finished - but I really liked it and asked if we could use it as a collab. (;

    Thanks so much for your comment.

    I enjoyed reading this poem, it is well written.. in places the ryhmes didnt flow too well but its a hard thing to do.

    I was left wondering what this piece is about.. i have 3 things mind.. left we pondering which is a good thing =)

    The stansa was byfar the best imo

    "Why do we shout?

    And why do we scream?
    Perhaps we feel fear
    Why do we fight?

    It just drew me in and i wanted to keep reading. The different feelings left me wanting to read on

    Overall a good piece, rhyming is hard!
    both of you keep it up!
    5/5 from me
