Member Poetry

I was going to have a Poetry of the Week section, but feel that words flowing from emotion should be presented not as mere inspiration, but as an essence that nurtures thought. As a result, this is not a Member Poetry page.

Submit poetry to me by email, and they will be added here. Please send me your profile name as well, and if you would like a picture to include with the poem.

Mirror Mirror

This Poem by Zoodle

Zoodle: SCENESPO! Really does help me to stay motivated!

Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the fairest of them all?
I don't see me in your reflection
I see someone beautiful without imperfection.
 
I see a girl. She's dainty and thin.
Her hair brushes against soft skin.
With dark eyes that reflect the moonlight.
Such gentle features they sink into the night.

Mirror mirror on the wall
Why am I not there at all?
I see beauty infront of me.
I'm sure that that's not what you see.
 
You see no one. A nobody.
A thin girl in a fat body.
I want to become the real me
Work long and hard just so you'll see.
 
Mirror mirror on the wall
Am I the fairest of them all?
No. Not now but i'll aim to be
And when I become it then you'll all see.

Thin

This poem by tiptoes

tiptoes

I am creating a frame
And I am going to hang myself on my wall.
There is a thin line between art and mess
I will be neither, I will be sucess.
 
I am an artist who desires no recognition,
My wall is kept private to all,
But it doesn't even belong to me
 
I am a cage of its own kind,
It holds the double sided beast
Screaming. pain. it rips me in half,
But I wait to hold control's trophey.
 
I am becoming a murderer,
I lurk in dark alleys but looking for no one
I have found myself and her.
 
I am a seceret,
My painting paints itself more every day
I sometimes stand back and admire it,
All I've ever wanted is to fade away

Charlotte's Story

Poem by Paranoia_x; 

Paranoia_x;: FaTTy 

I look and glare
You stand and stare 
My story I something I wish to not share
As most likely you wouldn’t care
But then this is my fare!

I choose for my starvation
And look at models for my motivation.
As thin is the only choice
Especially when I’m followed by Ana’s voice.

I admit it, I called you all fake and rotten
But please can you let this be forgotten.
I didn’t know what thin meant to you
I thought that you should be locked up like wild animals at a zoo.
But now look, I'm one of you

Who knew? 

But now I just want to be scraggy
I want my skinny jeans to be baggy.
I want a jaw line
To come in time.

Along with my stick arms and legs
Just like yours and Meg’s.
So now I have my heart set on thin
As everyone knows thin is in. 

What is it in that see in me?

What is it that you see in me?
I'm just an average girl,
I'm far from being amazing,
I'm nothing really special,

I make many mistakes,
And at times I'm a little crazy,
but thats wat Im like,
So love me or hate me.

I count my imperfections,
And I hold my head real low,
I don't look to the future,
It's just another tomorrow.

My hopes and dreams are damaged,
At times I tend to cry,
I get a little controlling,
And I suck at saying goodbye.

When I fall inlove,
I tend to fall real hard,
The proof is on my arm,
With each and every scar!!!!

Sometimes when I get angry,
I say things I don't mean,
So don't you see my love ,
I'm not as perfect as I seem.

Perfect i am not,
Norwill i ever be,
I dont know why people like me
Im just being me

I never get things done,
I never get it right,
My life is a constant battle,
In which i lose the fight.

I see people living happy,
Showing a lot of pride
Wanting to be like that
I decide to cry and hide

Eveyone seems to be happy,
Wonderful and free,
For i will never be perfect,
Coz i am only me.

If you look inside my heart,
And seee how much I cry,
I dont tell anyone how I feel
So therfor my hole life is a lie,

But what you wil see the most,
Is how hard it is to stay strong,
When nothing is right,
And everything is wrong.

My parents yell,
But I always try,
Im never good enough for anyone and,
I dont know why.
