To those who hold many dreams...
If you are a dreamer then come forth
Expand your vision and inner world
To the space that lies beyond just yourself
And share to others the images and feelings you hold inside
If time is an easy thing to understand
Yet hard to keep your eyes on
As you are drawn into your own dreams
Then speak out and stand by what you believe
To those who are the children of possibility and hope
Who may, at one point, be a stranger to a structured land
Who is forever a blue flame
Invisible in the light
Shining in the darkness
Yet always has a burning passion
I ask of you...
Show us your world,
Your thoughts,
Your feelings
What you believe
lol... A little poem I made at random.

ooh... I feel the emotion. 
How do you make your games? I see. Thank you for the prompt replies, but it is my considered opinion that you're doing it wrong inefficiently because I am a perfushenal professional. Do it my way this way and we can all ascend VN Nirvana together while allowing me to stroke my ego you will improve much faster. Also, please don't forget to thank me for this constructive critique or I will cry and bore you to death respond appropriately with a tl;dr rant discourse of epic adequately lengthy proportions. - Sarcasm Veiled in Euphemism: Secrets of Forum Civility by lordcloudx (Coming soon to an online ebook near you.)

Jeez, you're making me jealous...
If I could call to mind such words,
So subtle, so demure,
If I could spin a web of meaning,
With rhyme and meter sure,
If I could cast that net about you,
And your heart procure...
There would be something witty here,
If I a poet were.
The gift of words is life's sweet treasure,
But not mine, 'twas never mine,
The art of fusing word with pleasure,
Lost on me. I can't combine
Such subtleties in word and measure.
So I, for your sweet love, repine...
For I could have it at my leisure,
If I a poet were.

Will you stay here for a while, dear, 'til the radio plays something familiar?

Worry not about the words you speak
Worry not about the rhymes you create
Just take hold of the key inside yourself
To open the hearts of many
If you can hold your heart in hands
And declare to the world where you stand
To stay true to the resolution that you hold
Then you must not stop
Hold tight as you fight the winds
That taunt many souls
And rend people's hearts with eyes
Go farther than you ever dreamed
Worry not about the rhymes you create
Just take hold of the key inside yourself
To open the hearts of many
If you can hold your heart in hands
And declare to the world where you stand
To stay true to the resolution that you hold
Then you must not stop
Hold tight as you fight the winds
That taunt many souls
And rend people's hearts with eyes
Go farther than you ever dreamed

since this has somewhat turned into a poetry thread, I'm gonna post one with a more selfish tone.
A Writer
By: Cloud^
Once there was a writer,
He was not a biased journalist,
They are narrow-minded realists,
He was not an academician,
Nor a dirty politician,
His words were strong and artistic,
Though a tad unrealistic,
He wrote of life without restraint,
Evoking memories sad and faint,
From the readers who can see,
The great success that he could be,
But he wrote not to make a name,
Or to seek for glory and fame,
No! After all his goals were lighter,
He was just another writer,
And even if his work never sells,
He wrote for himself and no one else.

*Looks around while rubbing his hands maliciously*
Now I am going to bother the good poets and readers of this forum with my translation/adaptation of a particularly weird poet of my country:
Self-poem
See? Nobody went to the formidable
Burial of your ultimate dreams
And only ingratitude it seems
Has been your friend, unseparable
Get used to the hell that is your life
For anyone in a land so miserable
Cannot help, but feel the innevitable
Hunger for the reaper's scythe
Take a match and light your cigar!
The kiss, my friend, comes before the scar
And the hand that heals is the same that hurts you
And if someone pities the sadness that you feel
Hurt this evil hand that tries to heal
And scar those lips before they kiss you
Umm... But the poem's not mine and the only thing I did was mangle the original, so no credit for me!
Pretty good poems everyone! It's one thing you rarely see in VNs isn't it? Poems...
*scratches chin in a thoughtful way*

Wow
Really, the poems you guys wrote are good...
Here's mine, I know it's not so good...
----------------
So when will you find what you wish?
It is when you close your eyes to the truth
So when will you accept yourself?
It is when you realize that you cannot accept yourself!

Dots? Bah, decadence. Why, back in my day, our minimalist poems consisted entirely of whitespace.
Always a classic, that brings a tear to my eye.

Pytom: you have out-minimalized me. Shall I counter by spamming with desu? desu? desu? (ok I'll quit before this thread gets too off-topic)
