Quatrain Corner

[Queso]

I know I'm not a man,

all the others jumped

and I crawled back down

Niagra falls Ladder?

[Dark Mind]

Okay... I know this is quatrain corner (A poem or stanza consisting of four lines.). But I just wanted to share something I wrote while on my little hiatus, and I didn't feel like creating a new thread for it, since I probably wouldn't be adding much to it after posting the following. So if anybody else wants to create a thread for lyrics you've written yourself, feel free to :naughty:. And if that happens I'll delete my entry here (Replaced with a quatrain :hyper:) and move it there.

 

Well, here it is:

This pain is just too real,

I fear these wounds will never heal

And as I lie awake in my bed

Wondering if this could all just be a dream

The only thing I feel

Is the .45 pressed against my head

I pray my pain will end

With a kiss from this hot lead

I sit up, knowing my next shot won't miss

Then, I pull the trigger,

And feel nothing but bliss.

As the bullet passes through my head

The torment leaves me as, silently,

I fall dead.

...

My eyes snap open and greet nothing

But the darkness in my home

The smile fades from my face,

And I've never felt so alone

And hearing your name

Brings the memories back again

It's so hard, but I remember when it started happening

I'd see you in every thought I had and then...

I try to catch my breath again.

But no, this isn't how it ends,

I'm just picking me apart again

And you all assume

I'm safe here in my room

But, I swear, this will be my tomb

I'm asleep inside, and feel I'm fading away

So dead inside, these thoughts won't go away

 

Just one more push is all it'll take

And then I fear I'll finally break

I can't be what I'm trying to be

I'm just falling apart in front of me

And it's finally become more than I can take,

I feel my memories are consuming me

They continue to reverberate all throughout me,

My whole body is caught in a giant quake

Memories of joy, and happiness...

Are things I try to fake.

 

Congratulations, you've finally got the best of me

And now I'm sick of you testing me

I think it's time you took a walk in my shoes...

So starting today, I'll be the one testing you

I'm stirring inside, but still, I'm fading away

So tired inside, these thoughts won't go away

 

Living in this world without you, I've become so cold

By putting my emotions on hold, I think I can finally wait

I know by now... But for you it's already too late

Now it's just a question of when you'll fold

I'm not the kind to say I told you so

But life is a balance,

And I was holding on when I should've been letting go

So, just an FYI, I've finally let you go

And now you're the one home alone

And now you've never felt so alone

So sorry, but now it's your turn.

And for the time being I'll just sit here and watch you burn

I think there is already such a thread, Dark mind.

 

Anyway, here's my next one...

 

If I were a dog,

And I'd see a flower,

I'd li[math] \delta [/math]t my leg,

And g[math] \delta [/math]ve it [math] \delta [/math] s[math] \delta [/math]ow[math] \delta [/math]r!

sounds like something a heroin addict would write!:confused:

 

it would drive me insane

listening to a song like that.

What kind of music did you write it for?

Rock N Roll???

[Queso]

Not to be negative,

it was just a sad,

sad, song.

Salad and beer, ya know?

Sure... Why not?... :confused:

Yeah, Rock and Roll was the music in mind. And where is the other such thread, ron?

[Queso]

i think ldbassist set up a lyrics thread

a long, long timeago.

Either way,

let's go back into the ocean.

To make a name

In god's own game

brings neither fame,

nor any shame!

 

OOoooaaaaoooooOOOooooooaaaaaOOO....

[Tarantism]

lets give it a name

as it hobbles triangular

said the man with

a tipped feathered tenticle

[Boerseun]

This is a quatrain

that's received

a lot of fines

because instead of four

it has five lines

[Pyrotex]

Self-referential counting jokes

Run amok in high-Q minds.

Clever rascals who know their math

Rejoice in humor of ordinal kinds.

to the date,

Still I blow bubbles, Mesmerized

I came back here to read

the thread about all our dreams.

 

It's time to recall the vast

ocean we sailed

And I heard whales,

I woke you up

 

and you heard nothing

but the lantern I hung.

Fermented sextons
