Mercury6,
I must say that the peice you posted by John Lennon and Paul McCartney was a joy to read, kinda reminded me of another song of theirs...Lucy in the Sky with Daimonds. Supposedly, they were high on LSD while writing that song, hence the name of it, L(ucy in the) S(ky with) D(aimonds).
Nice one.
BL...a very inspired peice of poetry from you.

Another case of lyrics written while high:
----------------------------------------------
Bold As Love (Supposed to be about a pack of cards).
Anger, he smiles,
towering in shiny metallic purple armour
Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him
Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground
Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted,
They quietly understand
Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready,
But wonder why the fight is on
But they're all bold as love, yeah, they're all bold as love
Yeah, they're all bold as love
Just ask the axis
My red is so confident that he flashes trophies of war,
and ribbons of euphoria
Orange is young, full of daring,
But very unsteady for the first go round
My yellow in this case is not so mellow
In fact I'm trying to say it's frigthened like me
And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from, eh,
Giving my life to a rainbow like you
But, I'm eh, yeah, I'm bold as love
Yeah, yeah
Well I'm bold, bold as love (hear me talking, girl)
I'm bold as love
Just ask the axis (he knows everything)
Yeah,
yeah,
yeah!

I once made a mistake, but I was wrong about it.
Helloooo!
This is one I wrote recently...
What do you think? Too morbid?
The void is pitch, I am dragged into the black
I struggle with fear, the demon is back
I scream out loud - an echo in the night
The walls close in, my chest feels tight
Here in darkness, time is suspended
In my mind thoughts are demented
The air is thick, my throat becomes dry
Why can no one hear my cry?
Senses are weak, pull gets stronger
Try to reach out, can’t hold on much longer
Fear takes hold, my tears are streaming
The demon in my soul is laughing and teasing
Is this it? Is this The End?
No last chance before I descend?
Into the depths of it's blackness
Cutting short my fragile existence…
I shut my eyes, can't fight anymore
A better place awaits me, I am sure
The chill of death invades my body
I relax, the demon has got me
I can't escape it, I never get away
It's always the same, night after day
Suddenly - my room is around me
Sweat pours off my shaking body
Sigh of relief, I'm not dead!
I'm safe and sound, warm in my bed.

Thats actually pretty good. Morbid, Yes, But I like it.
It doesnt always have to be about positive feelings or situations.

I once made a mistake, but I was wrong about it.
I use to do poetry too for my boyfriend, not any more because my boyfriend is now my husband....... This is one very simple one I wrote when we completed 1000 days being in love. Silly me, use to count days like mad.......
It started with a gaze
Then soon became a maze
But you shattered all the haze
And proved by all the ways
That true love always stays
And devotion always pays
To fill the heart with craze
That it sings and dance and prays
To God and thanks his grace
That we shared these 1000 days.
