Best All Fun And Games Poems

Now I know the burden of pain.
The true malevolence of the world.
My eyes were blinded, my emotions deceived,
My dreams all a wild fantasy.

Once upon a time,
I was under the impression
That life was a joy, all fun and games.
An illusion of grandeur.

Now I know the destruction...

I don't get a lot of comments
It's makes my name uncommon
I took a rest, now I'm back 
When I read your words I see what you lack
I will step into your ring
Wearing a ring
and cut your words in half
I don't want to be mean
but you...

As I awake I am still here I still feel the same pain
I still have the same nightmare I still feel the same rage
I can not change the way it feels I can not tell you why
Each and everyday I just want to sit alone...

Mississippi.
Mostly mild, wet, and muddy  in winter,
but also chilly, cold, and sometimes snowy.
We feasted on ice cycles from tin or asphalt rooftops;
We screamed and yelled as we fought each other with snowballs;            ...

I woke up this morning, 
Believe me, I was ready to play.
For those of you 
Who are unaware 
Today's a gargantuan day.
Electrifying excitement 
Alive and in the air. 
There's nothing else quite like it
For anyone to compare.
Pine tar, rosin fragrance 
And that of fresh cut...

Poetry Soup is THE place to hang out
If you're looking for a place to twist and shout
It's all fun and games
Just let go of the reigns
Jump in with both feet and splash about

Crossroad

It's funny how this has turned out.
I use to get flustered when you're around. 
Frantic beating of my heart.
Crazy change of my mood.
Now I realise that as much as I love you, I got to let go.
You're just not worth it.
You don't want my love.
Yet...

It is better to love and lost Well, you have heard the saying                                ...

When the Autumn Leaves Fall...

Blossoms bloom red
Your pretty smile falls beneath your head
Brunette flow
Healthy glow
From then on you hid in my sheets
The thing you were running from I never got to meet
I rushed in
Not knowing it was a bear’s den
We got married
I thought I was...

Holy ****, i'm drunk.
Why do i do this?
How many nights have I gone through this..
It's all fun and games when I'm with my friends,
But when they all leave I find myself thinking of the edge.
I mean holy ****. I am really drunk..
Everything I own can...

I spent half my life buzzed
pulling stings with my cuz
day dreamed of being kings but our status never budged

mainly because we was rarely sober
drinking E&J with soda 
trying to sneak a toaster in the Ponderosa (local club)

I been in bar brawl where chairs are thrust...

It was all fun and games
A little laughing
A little tag
She was frolicking
Away from her tagger

She tripped on a rock
The boy approached her
Lifted up her skirt
And groped her

Splash is the sound of tears
Maybe if she wasn't wearing a skirt
He couldn't pull it up
Maybe if she was...

Never too old to start again making wrongs right
And crooked path straight. Not given a license
To procrastinate, but to do what will benefit before
It’s too late.

In the natural realm we’re disregard, and disrespected 
And as outcast laid aside. But in God’s economy
Our work has just...

did I go too far? not far enough?
too late to pull back or call your bluff
it is written in the script, and props for the stage 
vindication of scenes in minuscule facts
the curtain gets drawn on the second act
backstage cues for what's undone in the...

(Tongue in cheek! LOL)

Nobody's perfect but I come pretty close
Don't usually brag about my prowess
But sometimes I just get so overwhelmed
My enthusiasm for me is boundless

You may be annoyed by my constant bragging
But when you're as perfect as me
It's almost impossible to let it go...
