I've never really written poetry but I have wrote songs. Here's one I wrote for a girl (It's very hootie and the blowfish)

The way you looked that night
stood in the light
looked upon your face
astounded by your grace
The way you looked that night

The way you looked that night
stood in the light
felt my heart changing
cause you looked amazing
The way you looked that night

And when I think of you
everything feels so subtle
came into my heart
loved you from the start
The way you looked that night

The way you looked that night
we could never fight
I was yours for taking
I was yours for breaking
The way you looked that night

And when I think of you
everything feels so subtle
came into my heart
loved you from the start
The way you looked that night
And when I think of you
everything feels so subtle
came into my heart
loved you from the start
The way you looked that night

came into my heart
loved you from the start
The way you look every night

The chords are- A/D/Bm/Asus4/A/D
and for the chorus G/Em/Bm/Asus4/A/D

Pssst.  Ant'ny.  Um...  You've written a poem, man. 

Websters, "Poem: (noun) a piece of writing, often in rhythmic verse and sometimes rhyming, that is characterized by vivid, compressed language and strong emotional force."

Good poem, too.

I think so as well.  Really remarkable effort.  I think I'd have to actually hear the music to associate it with a song, as I'm not really a lyricist or have that great an ear for writing music.

I'm sure if I heard you play it or something, I might think of it as a song, but the way I see it now.  It's a lovely poem.

V. nice.


true love waits... i guess.

here is another I wrote when i was 14 in high school. i was going through my teen angst stage and was in to Metalica:

Problem song

In a love struck world
war is hard to survive
Taking it easy on a cruise isn't easy
could it be, I've lost my self control
I have lost all dignity
I don't know, taking things easy that it's worth it

As I look into your eye I see you crying
descending from the sky I see you dying
visions in my head
walk the walk with me

Launching myself out of the this world I keep on trying
a metaphysical experience I keep on having
war has touched a billion lives but it's still ongoing
chaos for eternity for ever and ever
and this child needs a future to hold

my time is up, my world will end
is everything okay? I can't pretend
I cry out tears of sorrow
this is my problem song

and things always seem out of place
I throw things out and they're in my face
I an can never redeem
my problem song

very simple chords- Em, C and D

That's insanely powerful a statement to make, ant.  My God, those lines definitely spoke the most to me.

Terrific job, my friend.  Quite the songwriter you are.

i agree.....can i get a free cd?


The way of the warrior demands enlightenment of the senses.  It also demands sacrifice, and those who fear the loss of superficialities, cannot understand the power of darkness, silence, and patience.

those were good songs and i am not trying to start an argument but songs can rhyme and its rhythmic verses make it into the song it has to have a rhythm unless its jazz.

your dream, my destiny, our fate, there will
let us find peace, this viscous world
we walk as one
no longer disturbing peace
let us find peace, this viscous world

glad you liked it. Thanks for your compliments. Words are the body of the song, music is the soul. Maybe this is a good subject to debate.

Liked your short song, please post more.

Here's my song. It was recorded last year by Paramount, but nothing has happened with it as of yet. I am going to put it into my new screenplay, "A Song In My Heart" and have one of the main characters sing it.

Wounded Angel

Cast out into the shadows
She blamed herself when he turned away.
He used to call her Angel - his Angel.
Her splintered wings show on her face.

When the magic was risin, she caught the full moon lyin.
She was stripped of her emotions, abandoned in the cold.
All of her thoughts were draped in darkness.
The midnight's chime, it mocked her saddened soul.

A wounded Angel doesn't look so sweet
when there's demons at her feet.
She doesn't know that love's wings will mend in time.

Another time, another place,
there'll be no tears to stain her face.
The red paint on her lips will frame a smile.
All the darkness and the pain will be replaced,
then like a phoenix, Angel will soar into a love's light.  

A wounded Angel doesn't look so sweet
when there's demons at her feet.
She needs to know that her wings will mend in time...
that her wings will mend in time.

This year working on some songs with mythology as a theme... i just plan on writing 10 songs with the versitility in style... here is one... called sons of war...

Pick up and gun
pick up a sword
arm yourself
start a war
filled with anger
filled with hate
built-in fear inside your soul
But don't be hate
and don't be fear
don't be polotics
make your purpose clear
don't be anguish
don't be pain
don't be suffering
don't be be vain

chorus:
show your mercy
show you're just
show compassion on all of us
show you're righteous
fight for truth
blood was shed but not by you

You have many scars
but not by war
they're so deep
and they are sore...

oh crap I forgot the rest... ahm... I'll type the rest another day... but yeah... doing stuff like this... done another called icarus and another called shoot me stupid....

I write and play music, myself, in a band I've had off and on for 4 to 5 years now... maybe 4 not 5.  Writing songs is something I can do very well... I like writing songs, most of them themed based. Getting too far into it though can be pretty chesseballish, even more so when you don't know what you're talking about or subjecting/projecting about.  

Case and point -->>  

I think "by & large" if you are 1 to 20... you don't know what love is. Don't write like you do and don't write like you've been thru it, cause "BY & LARGE" you haven't.

I think writing about war and politics when you're 14 is absurd.  There is 1 case where I was schooled by a 16 year old on politics, but he was also not of this earth and had an IQ of 187.  Don't write about war cause your favorite band does or role model does... write about it cause it affects you or digs at your soul.  Writing about war with nothing behind it doesn't say anything other than "HEY LOOK I'm A POYINA HEAD JEREKA"

-----------

I dunno... write what you wanna write and sing what you wanna sing, but learning what you think, feel and see and experiencing it 1st hand is something you'll have to do to be taken serious in my eyes.  

However, the same could be said for my writing... I've never been a cowboy and attacked by hordes of zombies. I've never lead people into caves with money and I've never been on an endless highway... so what do I know???

B to the azzo L to the Tzzo I to the Sooo

P.S.
Also, listening to other peoples music and forming lyrics around there music isn't creative either... it's actually hurtful to your situation, if you wanna be a song writer. You'll fall into that... I don't know my keys, my rythms and chord paterns.

Listening to others music and getting idea's from it is ok... but talentless fools, like rappers, who can't or have run out of beats and hooks often get to use sound bytes from classic songs... because they are under the record lable that produced the original bands who played the music... thus they get to use it in there song and make millions off all the moronic teens out there.  

It's not a talent... Any fool can put new lyrics to predated music. Anyone!  

By and large any rap song you hear today... it's stolen mixes from other songs and sound bytes. you might not know it at 1st listen, but trust me... it's there.
