Hello and well met,
I am a huge poetry fan, in fact I am a huge romantic and very geeky I know but I also love Shakespeare and as I was part of a Shakespeare group I have two plays completely memorised.....bit sad really isn’t it
Anyway apart from being a poetry fan I also love things with a dark twist, I myself am a Goth and love the romantic vampire portrayals. I have had a hard life and it has put me into dark places at times and one of my ways of dealing with it was to put those dark thoughts into poems.
I have always been a little scared to share my poetry as some of it is quite dark, and I think it is hard to find people who can appreciate the emotion in them.
I was wondering if some of us poets and poetry lovers could share both our own work light hearted, romantic or dark and your favourite poems.
I think poetry can be a huge inspiration and affect our emotions, something that in a way can be taken and used in any performance, or even simply just trying to put together your 'Alter Ego Persona'.
Anyway enough from me, I want hear from the community I know so many of you are incredibly talented. I would like to share some of my poetry with you but I would first like to see if there are people in the community that are interested in darker poetry.
