Here's a poem I wrote about Beauty, a few weeks ago!.

Beauty Can't Be Bought


"Look what we are selling here for fifteen ninety nine
For such a small price your face could look like mine"
Don't you want flawless skin, a perfectly molded face!?
Any signs of imperfections, gone without a trace!.

We can cover you up, it doesn't take too much
But if you want to stay intact you really should not touch
Just apply more makeup, it isn't hard to do
You need it to be beautiful, you know that this is true

To go outside the house with a face so bare
That would be unthinkable, your skin is much too fair
Apply a little bronzer, look now you have a tan
You better use more lipstick if you want to keep your man

No such thing as too much eyeshadow, you can not use enough
People think your eyes are big and bold, don't let them call your bluff
Apply some more eyeliner, and more mascara too,
If your lashes still aren't long enough, we have fake ones for you!.

Some blush to make you shimmer, you're just about complete
Add a few more coats of gloss to make your lips look sweet
Go draw on your eyebrows because they don't look good enough
Now it's safe to go outside, just look at you hot stuff!

No one can see your face underneath the cosmetics
You hide yourself beneath aesthetics
I know how it feels because I've been there too
But I'm done with that nonsense, I'm finished, I'm through!

For I am beautiful and thus, do not need a mask
Why should winsomeness be such a task!?
Natural beauty is the kind that lasts forever
and can not be bought, not now and not ever!.

I'll still wear makeup, but only in moderation
To make it who I am would be an abomination
My face is not flawless, I have blemishes and such
But I refuse to use foundation, I don't need a crutch

I am who I am, and I'll be who I'll be,
I have no desire to look like that girl on tv
I am my own self and I don't pay a price
So go die CoverGirl, I don't need your advice!.

Lost containment

Lost containment dreary outcomes
Wash through my clammy soul
And if somehow
By day lark listless the starry night would not control
The starry night would not control
My ghastly phantoms washing through
My weariness,
my outcomes lying true

If only Day lark could become a new
My very soul clammed down under
And all my fears would wash a blunder
If only true If only true
The daybreak could make anew

If only Lark of dark or dreary could become a midnight merry
And my twisted darkness coming washing through my blunt shield
If only blitheness and content
could reign within my heart
and within the blame switch forth to fortress merriment

Even during the midnight clammy
the dark would sustain until morn

And in the morn the dark would not be lifted,
falling down within their veils
If only by midnight true,
If only midnight true

To wish, to dream, in shadows failing
The ghouls a’ wailing,
I wish, the Lark could sing and re-lift the fortress of darkness gloom
My fated soul shallow windowless falling down into the shaft,
The shaft of twisted wonder and there lay morning dusk,
not veiled, not made by musk,
there lay morning dusk

Death lift falling, drearily
In the dream O’ blearily
Rain swiftly dropping down into daybreak not
Into morning dusk that will never be
That, that is me



Prologue
Dreamless dance swirls bleary
Nightmares reign writhing over
And I dance wearily
To their calling song sifting past eerily

Nightmares calls



If only daybreak would come glazing over the stars
Lighting my world once again a’flame

If only Lark of dark or dreary could become a midnight merry
And my twisted darkness coming washing through my blunt shield
If only blitheness and content
could reign within my heart
and within,
the blame switch forth to fortress merriment

Even during the midnight clammy
the dark would sustain until morn
And my terror would persist
Forever more my cheerless gloom would settle
For no more sky would resettle
Gilded as gold would set
No more, no more


In the morn the dark would not be lifted,
falling down within their veils
If only by midnight true,
If only midnight true
Would leave a string of blue,
If only true


To wish, to dream, in shadows failing
The ghouls a’ wailing,
I wish, the Lark could sing and re-lift the fortress of darkness gloom
My fated soul shallow windowless falling down into the shaft,
The shaft of twisted wonder and there lay morning dusk,
not veiled, not made by musk,
there lay morning dusk

Death lift falling, tediously
In the dream O’ blearily
Rain swiftly dropping down into daybreak not
Into morning dusk that will never be
That, that is me

My nightmare a’ cask would never leave
No more dreams but baring cries
In the morning my soul would hide
No sky, no sky I would sing out
No heart has stayed through my pain
Only the shell of me, of me
Death lift falling, tediously
In the dream O’ blearily
Rain swiftly dropping down into daybreak not
Into morning dusk that will never be
That, that is me

That's the two i can think of on the top of my head hope you enjoy!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I haven't a clue what pantoums or fourteener poems are, and haven't written a used to/but not now poem!. However, I wrote a really, really stupid poem and posted it on poetry!.com to see if they would tell me I was a semi-finalist!. I suspected that they told everyone that no matter the poem content - in order to get people to buy their books or other products - I was right!. I later learned that they were investigated by 20/20 or some TV program like that!. If you want to see the poem, it is called Chameleons!. You will see what I mean about stupid!. If you read down the left margin, you will see the name of the person I wrote it for as well!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

SIAN

Just whispered commands she will obey
Though sometimes my voice is raised
From dawn to dusk on any given day
Sian calmly waits for well earned praise!.

Her long tail wags on hearing my speech
And at any movements her soft ears prick!.
She has been a joy for nine years to teach,
Knows me well and my every silly trick!.

Regular daily grooming is the normal thing;
Eyes, ears, nose and brushing her soft fur!.
She sits in front of me as I do my thing
Enjoying attention - if she were a cat she’d purr!.

Sian is our Golden Labrador from the RSPCA
Replacing Airedale, Rusty, who died in 1999!.
In every way part of the family and that’s okay
For she’s loved and respected and doing fine!.

here's my humble writing :

CLAIRVOYANCE'S ANGEL

My life is gloom and dull,
Misery even hate me so ;
Woe is me, thus my soul,
None care and really know!.

Days, i waste in a daddle,
Lonely cried and cupid laugh ;
Clairvoyance then gave me an Angel,
Clad with heart full of love!.

She spoke her heart in word,
And take away my sorrow ;
Is there one who's worth,
Who heals but left me hollow!.

Doubts left me wonder from all angle,
O me ! Do i deserve such an Angel!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Someone's there!.!.!.

I hear someone walking,
I hear someone tread,
I hear someone talking,
I hear someone dead,
I sense someone behind me,
I know someone's there,
I dare look back and see,
You wouldnt believe who's there!!Www@QuestionHome@Com
