Just came to tell you guys that poem I submitted for that poetry contest is gonna be published in a book. Just thought you guys might want to know.

They still haven't announced winners yet, though

Congrats. ...still sad you've vanished, but congrats. The forum just isn't the same without you. However...I'm more than happy to see you pursuing your love of poetry. I hope all goes well.

[Rikuseroth]

I feel as though I needed to post what happened after the previous poem.

Too Late

I'm too late.
She loves someone else.
This is a cruel fate.
It's worse than all the hells.
Yet, aslong as she is happy,
That's all that matters to me.

[Stove]

...Ouch.

[Rikuseroth]

Ultimately, if she's happy, I'm glad. She deserves to be happy. She is by far one of the coolest, nicest, and near perfect members of the opposite gender that I have come accross imo.

[Indigo]

I've trusted you with my life
Yet, you've caused all my strife
A bond like none else
Yet, I was just fooling myself

Finished that old poem for you.

[Rikuseroth]

We're all so fragile;
Thin pieces of glass.
Highly breakable;
We're broken so fast.
One wrong action,
One misspoken word
Shatters us to pieces.
It always hurts.
It never ceases.

[Rikuseroth]

The company she gives me,
It's greater than fine gold.
It's all that I need to be happy.
She lifts this feeling of cold,
Replacing it with one of bliss.
She lifts me up when I'm down.
There's nothing better than this.
With she's around, I'm without a frown.

[Rikuseroth]

Crimson Avenger
Th crimson knight embraces the dark,
Her vengeance like a ferocious shark,
Her bite far worse than her bark,
Her expression less stoic, more stark.

Her guilt, an unbelievable pain.
Her enemies' blood, falling like rain.
Her vendetta has but one gain;
To stop her own, inner pain.

[Rikuseroth]

The biggest triumph for my writing is becoming a published poet. I look at my poem in print atleast once a day, just so I have something I can be proud of.
I know I'll never be able to make a living off my writings, but it's still nice to see one of my poems in print. I have some sense of accomplishment.
+300 to Rikuseroth's Self-Esteem stat
From -2356 to -2056

[Rikuseroth]

My feelings for you,
I cannot express right now;
A cruel fate indeed.

Were you trying to make a haiku?

I had it in my head a minute ago, and I type faster than I think, so I left out the two syllables Ive forgotten

You write only of love,
Like poems made by Taylor Swift.
Try a new topic.

[Rikuseroth]

i have come and gone,
A rolling stone that can't stop,
But here is my home

[Rikuseroth]

Poem for my friend Emily, as its her birthday, and she's the girl Ive spoken about.

Everyday we grow in different ways,
Our smiles growing wider,
Our friendships growing deeper,
Our love growing stronger,
No matter what anyone says.

Every year we all grow in more ways,
Our wisdom abounds,
Our joy is amplified,
Our bonds deepen,
You'll continue to grow the rest of your days.

[Rikuseroth]

My overthinking poems.... The two haikus go together

What can we become?
Can we become more than friends
Or remain just friends?

Despite the outcome,
I will remain by your side
Whenever you need.

Is there any hope,
As I gaze from afar,
Am I even noticed?
Is there any hope,
As I tear out my heart
And present it to her?
Is there any hope,
As I see her happy
When she's not with me?
Is there any hope,
As my doubts keep growing,
Will we ever be?

[Rikuseroth]

My favorite poem that I've written.
DarkvsLight


The dark drifts closer,
Looking to consume.
It has in its clutches
Only me.
I don't want to go back,
It's had me before;
Before I found the light.
This light has guided me
Off that beaten path;
The one I walked alone;
Aimlessly wandering.
The light now holds me close,
Keeping me from the dark.
Now they're struggling,
Both fighting to keep me.

[Rikuseroth]

To hate in the name of love,
To kill in the name of peace,
Hypocrites to the end,
But no one can see
See what they've caused.
While they push and shove
Forgetting that love
They once held so dear,
Until their end is near.

I saw on fb, a while back, that a friend and the girlfriend of the girl that hung herself were bullying another girl for something related to the deceased one. So, I wrote this in response, posted it, got quite a few shares, likes, etc. I'm just glad it got around and people saw it.

It's sad to see people do what caused their beloved death.

[Ultima Atulos Maxim]

Was thinking about Jackie again...

From the bottom of my heart,
Until the end of infinity,
I will always love you,
I just wish that you'd love me.
