Or a really bad one...

(Aaah... the disdain of a stranger...)

Anyway.

Colin Farrell, come to Leeds and I'll show you a good time. You can bring your girlfriend if you want, but she needs to know we're leaving the brat downstairs with her.

What is this love that you speak of? Does it do tricks?

A bashful fairy would like to profess his undying love for a certain hirsute somebody, who's snowy fur and piercing eyes make him feel all gooey inside.
I love you, Margery, and I'm truly sorry for ever wanting to kill you.

If James from now ex boy band Busted ever wanted to enjoy an evening of highly tuned political and religious debate, eighties rock music and copius amounts of bacardi, followed by a quick all body MOT, then February 14th sounds good...

margaret, i hope you won't be offended by my quoting of this sonnet. i do not wish to imply that you are anything other than beauty incarnate; i merely suggest you have unique looks.

my mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
coral is far more red than her lips' red;
if snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
if hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
i have seen roses damask'd, red and white,
but no such roses see i in her cheeks;
and in some perfumes is there more delight
than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
i love to hear her speak, yet well i know
that music hath far more pleasing a sound;
i grant i never saw a goddess go;
my mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:
and yet, by heaven, i think my love as rare
as any she belied with false compare.

Every time I see you
I fall more in love
With you

You know that, don’t you?

Every time I see you
I want to touch you
Kiss you

Why are you with him?

He’ll never love you
Like I have
Do

Always Will

i thought i would offer a slightly more up to date version of a similar sentiment. this one's written by a mr rogers and a mr hart, rather than a mr shakespeare.
this time, however, i will not be so guarded with my disclaimers.
i am in dispair: i no longer care if margaret thinks i find her looks laughable.

My funny Valentine,
Sweet funny Valentine,
You make me smile with my eyes.

Your looks are laughable,
Un-photographable,
Yet you’re my favourite work of art.
Is your figure less than Greek?
Is your mouth a little weak?
When you open it to speak,
Are you smart?

Don’t change your hair for me,
Not if you care for me,
Stay, little Valentine, stay.
Each day is Valentine’s day.

here's another one.

i'm not entirely sure why i've suddenly decided to post these, seeing as i'm really shallow when it comes to who i fancy. maybe i'm just in a 'love is for losers' mood.
or maybe i'm just trying to impress all the english students with shakespeare. i have a shelf full of poetry books i looted from my grandfather's house, which have remained, unanimously, unread.
see, even inappropriate use of 5 syllable words. it must be the impressing the english students option.

in faith, i do not love thee with mine eyes,
for they in thee a thousand errors note;
but 'tis my heart that loves what they dispise,
who in despite of view is pleased to dote;
nor are mine ears with thy tongue's tune delighted,
nor tender feeling, to base touches prone,
nor taste, nor smell, desire to be invited
to any sensual feast with thee alone:
but my five wits nor my five senses can
dissuade one foolish heart from serving thee,
who leaves unsway'd the likeness of a man,
thy proud heart's slave and vassal wretch to be:
only my plague thus far i count my gain,
that she that makes me sin awards me pain.

Loved it when that guy rapped it in 10 Things I hate About You, speakin of stuff from that film.....

I hate the way you talk to me
And the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car.
I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big dumb combat boots
And the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much it makes me sick.
It even makes me rhyme.

I hate it...
I hate the way you're always right.
I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh;
Even worse when you make me cry.

I hate it when you're not around
And the fact that you didn't call,
But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you;
Not even close;
Not even a little bit;
Not even at all.

Ah, more poems. I like poems. No personal messages of love or lust - but some poems, that I can do. And - you know what - I'll dedicate these to someone (in my head).

Giving Up Smoking
by Wendy Cope
There's not a Shakespeare sonnet
Or a Beethoven quartet
That's easier to like than you
Or harder to forget.

You think that sounds extravagant?
I haven't finished yet -
I like you more that I would like
To have a cigarette.

Western Traveller

I'm going, I'm going,
Skipping continents and swimming oceans.
I'll take my wallet
With your passport photo;
They'll cross the world in my pocket.
I will forget you - but not for long.

I'll carve your face into the Sahara and
Leave it to blow away.
I'll find a chunk of the Berlin wall
And spray it with your name:
You will be a movement.

I'll do this, and
Breathe you into the world.
So set your stopwatch as I start to run,
And I'll come back
To stare you down
In the dying seconds of the travelling sun.

I personally think that it is a marvelous idea to capture the heart of another with a song. In fact I am considering visiting my first coffee hour on Valentine's Day to serenade the object of my affections with a tune, although I must profess to being rather shy at the prospect of being so terribly forward.

Knowing this is the opening of eyes, the closing of pages,
The hypocrisy, the angel in his shaman tinted hat
That sings his songs by the frost bitten lake.

Knowing that is the tide drawn by fate, loving in earnest,
Shooting parachutes into the sky, to burn to dust,
Turn to rust, holding to hope.

Knowing you is the drawing of blinds, the screaming of spectres,
Whispering earthquakes that can hurt more than hate,
As a requiem, unrelated.

Knowing us is all i know, is all i feel, is all i breathe.
One day, smile, take off your secret mask,
Thats all i believe, all i ask.

Everybody else write such a good poetry.
Personally, I like William Blake, but I haven't read much of other ppl's poetry.
Anyway, my words can't really capture the way I feel, but here it goes:

After I smiled and threw my wishes to the 4:00 am withered away sky
I gave myself a delayed rest while you picked it up
Both of us hate to wait and bite our lips in the queue
So we go off trying to find some other way
It's funny at times
How corny and transparent you are
But I guess I've showed my talent
And proved that I can outdo you as well
I'm just an helpless guy
Fallen by your charm
But falling wasn't as perplexing as I've thought



I know, it's kinda crappy, but hey! I'm not an English student.

So tempted to write an anonymous message to myself to make me look good.

You are in your ascendancy
And will be, and will be, and will be...
You are the phoenix; I the dodo.
Rise, fly, leave me to die.

I heard this today, and thought it was beautiful:

Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments. Love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no! it is an ever-fixed mark

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wandering bark,

Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.

Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks

Within his bending sickle's compass come:

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.

If this be error and upon me proved,

I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

I know that you don't feel for me
The way I feel for you.
We're good friends, I value that,
There's nothing you need do.

But as a friend I need to tell you
What is in my heart.
An unsaid truth is like a wall,
Keeping us apart.
My love for you will go nowhere,
Will just remain with me.
I'll hold it in my quiet arms
And feel it constantly.

I love no man, nor ought I know
of Love and all his kin;
I know not whither lovers go,
to kiss each other's skin.

I sense not care, nor deepest pain,
no passioned words I speak,
nor wish I for another man
my heart to fall so weak.

I know not how or why we
love, but this I feel within -
I love no man, nor ought I know
of Love and all his kin.

i know it's crap, but hey, it's allowed after such a bitter valentine's day right?

i know it's crap but I wrote it if anyone wanted to know.

V. Shakespearean. Hey, this is turning into a thread for disaffected love poetry!

Here's a snippet then:

Undertow
I am a child again
And the current tugs at my feet.
I cannot swim, or not fast enough.
Soon daddy will stride in again;
Pick me up, set me down.

But the beach is empty, and I drift
Further
And further.

Yes, verily we are mr Sasha. I toyed with the word 'father' but 'daddy' is, I think appropriately cloying and distracting to shake up the tone a bit. O yea, I am truly experienced and talented in the poetic arts.

are you going to become a bard then, mister Sam? one would hope so, and I should imagine Margaret would be most pleased to have a bard visit her Arctic realm...i do hope she becomes Queen of the LGBT.

I linger in the doorway,
of alarm clock-screaming monsters
calling my name....

Let me stay, where the wind
will whisper to me,
where the raindrops as they're
falling tell a story....

In my field of paper flowers, and
candy clouds of lullaby,
I lie inside myself for hours, and
watch my purple sky fly over me....

x(and another in return)x

I would love nothing more than to take my lyre up to the Arctic and whisper sweet nothings into the ear of our favourite polar bear.

More water metaphors for the duelling banjos thing we've got going on here:

I was a boat in the empty ocean,
You, a tsunami.
We met, and with one violent motion,
You swept away with me.

I drifted with you for a spell,
Carried by your tide,
But soon your oceans ceased to swell:
Your currents quickly died.

no more than two x's, if you please - people will think we're in love

perish the thought mister Sam! are we not both bitter spinstermen?

I like the metaphor of water, reminds me of the old bugger himself, the one who wrote Whitsun Weddings, Philip Larkin:

"If I were called in
to construct a religion,
I should have water as
its cornerstone..." or something like that.

"But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread
my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams."

-W.B.Yeats

Stop it, you're disturbing my weaving. Now where did I put those enormous horn-rimmed glasses? Ah - there they are, on that rickety old rocking chair by the fireplace. Oh, shoo, moggie, you're disturbing mummy. Oh, alright, do you want a kitty snack? Here you go, have some kippers. Now don't forget to keep mummy safe tonight, safe from the nasty men who wouldn't look twice at her if she walked down the street naked with a broom tied to her haid shouting "BOB HOLNESS WAS A CVNTISH LITTLE MONG!".
