I started writing poetry again, much to everyone's displeasure, I'm sure I'm too lazy to actually title things, so I'm just going to put 'em up. Also: CREDIT TO CARMEN FOR "SHOETRY."
Poem 1
Sing to me your darkest song that tells of all the pain to come.
You tried to stop the endless night, but fled when we put out your light.
The darkness claims you for your sins, while you struggle to sing your hymns.
Though you are too numb to feel, now nightmares are forever real.
Little one so all alone: come with us, we'll take you home.
Rest assured, the pain will die; just be sure to use this knife.
A sacrifice, a ritual; yet we'll never again be whole.
We long to be embraced by love, but can't be touched by that white dove.

If you've played Sengoku Basara, Oichi speaks in this sort of pattern. Most of the time, she speaks in morbid poetry to try and make sense of the world - she's completely lost her mind after watching her love Nagamasa die right before her, committing terrible crimes in the name of her brother Nobunaga, and finally killing Nobunaga's top retainers(and even he, in the games, I do believe). And she's a powerful demon-thing from the fifth heaven. Kinda crazy-spooky.
I quite like this style, and I think I'll write more things in it...for now.
