UBER 1337 Poster Rep: 28  Joined: 13 Mar 2008 Posts: 3,233 OFFLINE | I have to choose a poem and analyse it, I’ve chosen this:
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow —
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream:
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision or in none,
Is it therefore the less _gone_?
_All_ that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand —
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep
While I weep — while I weep!
O God! can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
_One_ from the pitiless wave?
Is _all_ that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?
A dream within a dream by Edgar Allan Poe

Crossing the Bar - Alfred Lord Tennyson
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea.
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home!
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For though from out our bourn of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.

A very good choice
Another few good choices are
Funeral Blues by W.H. Auden
My last Duchess by Robert Browning
Warming her Perals by Judith Radstone
and
Sonnet 130 by William Shakespeare

The Dog-Mod! Rep: 49  Joined: 28 Dec 2006 Posts: 18,559 | This one was well recieved by my peers.
There’s a pain in the darkness.
That I cant withstand.
It haunts me.
It taunts me.
Slowly driving me mad.
It tears at my soul.
It rips me apart.
This pain in the darkness.
Is destroying my heart.
My mind knows one thing.
My body Another.
How long must I stay here.
Before I become someone other.
This battle has raged on.
for years now within.
The war scars, they mold me.
They taint me with sin.
I can not lose.
This battle you see.
For destroy things I will
and evil i’ll be.
So beware the darkness.
Always keep it in check.
Your life will be shattered.
Forever
Live
And
Regret.
