Biography

Alot of people say, "Don't always see the bad things in life." Well. I think the bad things in life can open you up to new forms of writing. Life is like a rose. A rose can be beautiful and smell beautiful. But sooner or later it dies and no longer looks beautiful to most human eyes. But it keeps its beautiful smell.

Samples

Crimson Blood & Poison Tears Rain, rain, go away. Because of you the pain will stay. Slit my throat, cut out my heart, Leave me here, tear it apart. Poison tears stream down my face My heart beats at a steady pace As I try to stand again; Alone and standing in the rain. I don’t need you anymore, Is what I think while tears pour. I hate you like I hate my life; But love is what cuts like a knife. Love is death and death is you; Its pain stains like a black tattoo. And bind me in the ropes of pain. Crimson blood streams down my head Like a long, silk ribbon, tied by a thread, To a platinum bullet, a hole in my skull … Now just a memory that’s faded and dull.

Hello Sad Poet,

Welcome to Write Out Loud, we hope you are enjoying the site and we're really looking forward to reading some of your work. I know that you will be warmly welcomed by other WOL-ers too.

It would be great if you could upload a picture of yourself, it’s really good to see what our fellow poets look like.

Have a good look around, there’s always lots going on and if you have the time to make some comments about the work of other poets please feel free to do so, it’s often the best way to get some constructive feedback about your own work too.
There’s usually somebody who’ll help you out with any problems that you might encounter, so just ask and someone will get back to you.
WOL is a friendly, creative and unassuming place, so welcome from all of us once again.

Graham
&
The Write Out Loud Team.
