Why Poetry
I am so completely blocked, I mean I have writers block, so I decided to put a few of my poems out to the world. Now I don't claim to be a poet, I actually wrote these a few months ago in an instant of boredom. Please don't be too critical. I just wanted to keep the juices flowing, and not let too much time go by without publishing something.
These poems have nothing to do with my personal feelings, they just what came to mind when I was thinking of what to write at the time.
I actually know nothing about poetry, so I don't even know what kind of poetry this is suppose to be.
My Attempt At Poetry
Where Were You When
Where were you when I cried, you were not there to dry my tears
Where you when I laughed, you were not there to share my joy
Where were you when I fell down, you were not there to lift me up
Where were you when I stood up, you were not there to cheer me on
Where were you when I lost, you were not there to encourage me
Where were you when I won, you were not there to congratulate me
Where were you when they all left, you were not there to fill the void
Where were you when everyone was there, you were not in the crowd
Where were you when I was sad, you were not there to comfort me
Where were you when I was happy, you were not there to share my delight
Where were you when I was in danger, you were not there to protect me
Where were you when I was safe, you were not there to share the feeling.
Where were you when I failed, you were not there to give me hope
Where were you when I succeeded, you were not there to share in my success
Where were you when I was ill, you were not there to rub my head
Where you when I was well, you were not there to dance with me
Where were you
It doesn't matter you are here now

You Were There
You were there to calm my fears
You were there to wipe my tears
You were there to help me cope
You were there to give me hope
You were there to give me power
You were there in my darkest hour
You were there to make me smile
You were there all the while
You were there to hold my head
You were there when I to thee wed
You were there when sadness I did see
You were there to comfort me
You were there when I was glad
You were there when times were bad
You were there when times were good
You were there when you felt you should
You were there when the day was bright
You were there when I could see no light
You were always there
Where are you now

You Are Mine
You are mine, all the way
You are mine, no matter what they say
You are mine, I want to hold you near
You are mine, have no fear
You are mine, with every move I make
You are mine with every breath I take
Your are mine, didn't you know
You are mine, please don’t go
You are mine, let’s not delay
You are mine, let’s seize the day
You are mine, what can I say to you
You are mine, just say I do
