An Experiment in Poetry

Welcome, Fantasy Nerds! Last week we shared a list of our favorite poems with you. This week we decided to write our own poems, especially for this post. We are both fairly new to writing poetry, so this is a bit of an experiment. We hope you enjoy it!

Sometimes – Clever

Sometimes I

Forget that I 

Have wings to fly

Above it all

Sometimes I

Forget that I

Can close my eye

Not see the fall

We are always watching

Pettiness, cruelty, envy

Evil

Sometimes we

Can choose to see

The beauty

In this world

Sometimes we

Can choose to be

The beauty 

In this world

Lost – WTF

The skies above

The Earth Below

I am in between

Not knowing where to go

I feel lost

I feel this the most

But what pulls me through

Is that I am not alone

My family, my friends

My lover, my pets

They are there for me

Until the bitter end

But most of all

I have myself

I’ve been through it all

I’ve been there for every step

I look in the mirror

When I feel lost

I nod at the woman I see

And tell her she is loved

What Do You Think?

Have you tried writing poetry before? Do you write poems frequently? We think it’s great for an author’s creativity to try our new forms of writing. If you decide to try your hand at poetry, let us know how it goes! We’d also love to hear your thoughts on our poems! If you enjoyed this post, feel free to buy us a coffee. We promise to share!
