The Life of a Poet - Comments

@ the 1n5p1ration
well said. :)

@ dfident
That's sometimes how the best poetry is made! :D Sometimes our hearts can speak louder than our brain and mouths can.

@ the 1n5p1ration
totally... Well interpretted... The thing about my poetry... is I just write what sounds right... and let my word be interpretted on their own. :) I didn't even know what I was writing at the time :)

@ dfident
The thing about poetry is that it has lots of ways to interpret it, depending on the person...to me, it's saying that no matter how hard I try to write a poem, if I'm uninspired, I can't "fly", or get the right words to come to my mind, which would be my wings, so to speak, in a world full of water (sadness) that I can fly and soar over with my wings (poetry) and be all right. But then, if I crash into the water and drown, that WOULD be inspiration, and the world would be made of ink and water, hence "and...ink?". The ink is the abundance of inspiration that I would be drowning in after almost literally drowning in sadness. Does that make sense? lol

@ the 1n5p1ration
:) but what does it mean to you? What is its worth in your mind?

@ dfident
I think it's "One with words. None with birds.
For you see, though I try, and try, and try...
I can not fly, and I sit here and wonder.
Wonder why I was not with wings;
when the world was written in water.

and... ink?"

I love that!

@ the 1n5p1ration
Thank you! :) What is ur fave line?

Intriguing poem. I love it!

@ dfident
If I had to choose a favorite band it would have to Marianas Trench and as for favorite poet I'd have to say Poe. He's dark and creepy in a good way =) Care to take this conversation to messages and tell me your preferences?

@ kittenkat95
True. Any fave band? And do you have a fave poet?

@ dfident
You're welcome =D And you are quite right, it's not mainstream. I think it's better that way, less chance of it getting killed by overplaying. And thank you kind sir, I humbly accept the complement =)

@ xBL.ind.KilljoyX
LOLZ Poetic candy. How well... haha poetic! :) Thank you this means a lot to me.

@ kittenkat95
Thanks and yes a wonderful song that is not as well known and less mainstream but a fave of mine by the killers! :) Thank you I love your style of writing too!

I love this! It's like poetic candy to me! ;p darling use of words!

@ dfident
I know how you feel :) I like your style of writing. I'll probably read and comment more when I get the chance :)

P.S I love your signature, that's one of my favorite songs

@ kittenkat95
I tried to incorperate some paradox as well as allusions to the overwhelming aspects of poetry that one could almost feel as drowning in a sea of clauses... :) Thank you it's quite touching when people analyze my work and it helps motivate me to write more.

It's full of random goodness =) You get the random thoughts of poets past, present, and future. Well done =)
