Psssst!

Alright, lovelies!

I have a tiny contest that will let you have fun, hopefully!

There will be two winners in here. ; ) and it is seriously easy!

Everyone, just write a poem with the title 'You are a Twist in my Poetry' and your piece has to have a twist to it! Not a specific twist, just one that will make your poem interesting and enjoyable!

You have till 27th June. Enjoy!!!

Mmm I will rry that tho I dk if I can put a twist in my poem lol

Here is my try I dk about the twist thing if I made it right but this is what I could do hope u enjoy

"Stories about heroes
aren't attracting me anymore,
no more fabels or legendary swords.
No more love stories
or fights for saving a beautiful
princess sealed in a high tower
guarded by a huge fire breathing dragon
surrounded by deep vallies of dead souls
or vast oceans of lava.

All because of you,
you made me bitter,
you made me hate you,
but I still write about
how much I love you
and before my new poem's
ink ran dry I noticed that
you are just a twist in my poetry."

Thats it xD

I like! I like! Come on guys, pretty easy.

^Love the title Noura!

You Are A Twist In My Poetry

I am sure you are one of the few
who hears my blood running
but my dreams tumbling...
have you seen where they've gone?
Because life is beginning to
attempt a suicide upon my eyes.

How do you keep cascading
upon my caged screams?
You hear me for what I am
yet you murmur that life
is written within me,
and it's much bigger than
the strength I have saved.

I never told you, did I dear-
that you have made my heart swell
like an ocean-sized sun,
and I can't stay away
from the one who has whispered
ink into my veins once more.
I thought I would be left to burn-
but that's how all the lonely words
never set on paper feel.
My mind is overfilling, and I won't
turn away my breaths.....
for they are the twist to my story
and I will let them shine down
on all of us who have been blind
to the cosmic love of you.

Good work, MarryAnne! Deadline is on 27th June instead of 3rd, guys. I have finalsss.

Oki cool I have finals too xD
btw I love the poem you posted
Poet on the Piano

Here is my attempt:

You are a Twist in my Poetry

A knot, the type that goes on
and on in any location
within my mind, you are.

Yes, the similar type of knots
found every morning
within the tangles of my hair
- the ones that make me insane
until my comb takes them away-
you are.

Or perhaps,

You are like the knots found
in the cable of my headsets
- the ones that take me by surprised
after they became visible
to the sight of my eyes,
or when I found them
with the touch of my hands-
however, they can easily be removed
after not many attempts.

Or rather

You are probably more similar
to the type of knots found
within the laces of my shoes,
the ones that keep me from falling,
since I'm still here standing
no where near of touching
the ground with my knees.

Yes, Undoubtedly. . .

You are a knot, or perchance
A twist?

I really don't know
how else to describe you
But you are-
Yes, you are really
important to me.

and I thank god
for given you to I
-The most important twist
in my poetry and in my life-
my dear conscience.

Since my last attempt
I didnt like alot so I have another one

"I looked at you
tried to tell you that
I am sorry.
I used as many words
as I could, till you
told me that
you forgive me,
then I woke up
from this dream
and for being not
fully awake yet, I looked for you
and called you and
when I got no answer,
I started to gain my
consciousness and realized
that you were dead.
I went back to my bed
and started to close my eyes again
just to see you
as I want that memory of you
to remain in my dreams,
and not to be
only a twist in a poem written by me.

Awesome poems everyone :)
Here's my attempt:

You are a Twist in my Poetry

I used to listen to the wind
whistling love poems betwixt
blades of dew-kissed grass
whilst resting in your warm
embrace. I twined those
same grasses 'round my
fingers and in my mind,
creating a matted heart
tangled within my soul for-
ever.
Oh! How time has passed,
leaving decay in the air for
me to wipe away with my
tear-stained tissue. The
wreath in my heart is
growing tighter; growing
thorns - asphyxiating the
last beat
...And I'm beginning to
notice the desiccated grass
- no - they aren't dying;
they're getting stronger.
I knew I couldn't fight any
longer, so I walked away,
forgetting my heart.
Since the day I stopped
listening to the wind till
yesterday, I didn't have a
heart, so poetry took its
place.

And you're slowly becoming
a twist in my poetry.

Some great pieces here...

My attempt

You are a twist in my poetry

Shall I place the glitter of the moon
on the ocean of memories...
and breathe twilight into open palms...?

I'll blow the winds of blackbirds into the
wintry air even though spring rides
the blossom of nature.

There may have been hours amidst emotions
dispersed from great depths but
you are a twist in my poetry...curling yourself around
the branches of every word
and I shall lace the stars with fairy dust
for happiness sheds it's tears.

You are a twist in my poetry,

I think I was 19,
Just signed up,
I was pretty mean,

I was loud,
Selfish and,
oh, was I proud,

Nothing could touch me,
I was the beast,
I was THE Infantry,

Then one day you walked by,
In that dress with all the flowers,
All I could think was "My oh my,"

I was hardcore,
I was a killer,
On my way to airborne,

I didnt know what to do,
Your smile made me crumble,
I knew I had to have you,

Alot of ink and 17 years,
All the love and fights,
All the hopes and fears,

Dont make me say it again,
I was just want to let you,
I swear I loved you sence this began,

Wonderful stuff, guys. Keep them coming.

So, when dose this close
