The scribbles of Liwyatan

[Azeliah]

I'm a writer of sorts. I mostly write poetry, but I'm in the process of writing a novel that has it's current deadline at July 1st 2010. I estimate it to be around 100-150 pages excluding character descriptions. The purpose of the novel is to describe the background of my fursonas to a full, this means it has a storyline of 37 years. I realize that it's a bloody long project, but the characters do have a quite complicated story to go with it. The story will be rated NC-17, so I will not be giving examples of it directly, sorry. I hope to make some PG-13 rated examples later on, might be some passages in the text that are clean enough to do so. xD

As for the poetry part, I will be posting some examples here.

This one I have enjoyed writing and reading afterward. Originally, I wrote it for personal uses, but I found it to be so neutral that it may as well fit any being. I give you Lusts.

They can't
They won't
They don't
Even know

I can't
I won't
I don't
Ever show

The hunger lurks
Under my skin
The twisted perks
The lusts within

This one is quite personal, as you may figure. I use poetry as a way to deal with problems, thoughts and to generally function a bit better in everyday life. I give you Chains.

If life is a joy, then how come we throw it away?
If life gives experience, then where are my words to say?
In this life, how much has even changed?
In my time, have I created anything but chains?
Somehow it's certain, that I will forget about this world.
Somehow I know, that my path will remain this curled.

If I could, would I then relive my days?
If I could, would I then change my ways?
I ask questions, but where can I find my truth?
I ask for freedom, but who will make my chains loose?
It all seems dark, like everything is fading away.
But when I die, I hope to ask for one more day.
One more day to awaken my memories.
One more day to fulfill my deeds.

Will I ever know the truth?

Always interesting to see someone else share their writing.

The first poem is brief and simple, but to the point.  I think the message is fairly straightforward (Unless I'm missing something more subtle); the idea that there are hidden desires that one isn't willing to give out to the outside world, partly because some wouldn't be able to handle it.

The second sounds bleak; sorting out thoughts that are muddled in one's head.  It's a good way to get emotions out, certainly.  This feels like an emotional piece of that sort.

Thanks for sharing your writing.  It's always good to see what other people are up to.  If you care to share any more in the future, I'd certainly be interested in taking a look.

You're very welcome, and I'll be glad to do so in the future as well. But in this period of time I do more RP's than writing. xD

Some of my poems are very straightforward, yes, however, others are confusing. They reflect my mind at the time I've written them. And yes, this also leads to me going: "WTF M8?!" when reading some of my poems. xD

But thanks for the feedback, it's appreciated.

Nice work! I really like what you said about using your poetry to help deal with problems. It seems to me that more emotion can be captured in a situation like that. It's also a really constructive way to help with a situation, as opposed to other means.

I hope you share more, these were very interesting reads. :3

Thank you!

Well, as for me I also use poetry to expand my English vocabulary. I use rhymes a lot and as such, I need to be creative in sentence structures and try to finds the most elusive of synonyms at times. xD
