My first poem is really crappy (true). No meter, but the rhyme is there, although it doesn’t look that good. Later on, I realized how meter makes the poem sound good. Anyway, it’s still a poem, so I included it in my collection. It is about my longing for a true friend, and the emotion of it inspired me to write this poem.

LONGING
In snow, I seek affection
In shadows, I am falling
In rain, I seek company
Inside, I am crumbling
The fires have died in sorrow
Like embers quelled by tears
The echoes whispered like knives
That endanger and kill by fear
The ice has chilled my memories
Cooling them till they’re dead
Then they shatter to a thousand pieces
And leave me with shards instead
I hold out my hand to reach you
To touch the memories of ice
But I long for your frozen presence
And wait till the end of time
