if something is worth fighting for
ill fight to my last breath,
when the final curtain falls,
i want victory, or i want death.

the battle will be bloody,
with bodies strewn around,
only through the loss of many,
can justice now be found.

the road will bring me enemies,
some with power beyond compare,
but i will fight for principal,
i fight for what is fair.

to often we are put upon,
by the misinformed,
but united we will win the war,
we are noway left forlorn.

lahardane

Tell me secrets,

tell me lies,

recount me everything

you love, you despise.



Look at me once again,

through shoe blue eyes,

show me earth, show me heaven,

and sever all ties.



Foothills at dawn,

as viewed from a rise,

sullen silence in salacious sin,

-the dream of all guys.



i'll stand opposite the devil,

and sink to his size,

tear down this woeful world-

compel god to take sides.



Take my ageing seed,

deep within your inside,

just this one last first time,

ere our mortal demise.



I've seen my fatal foetal form,

bubble, burden and break on your eyes,

comfort ever the unknown-

now eternally realised.

Fight! Fiiiight!
It's the Tell Me Secrets contest!
The winner takes home the virtual Flirtbox Poetry Palme d'Or - a highly prized, er, er, prize! Embarassed

Come on, ellismera, put up or be ciúin.
(unless lahardane really is Danish, in which case:)
Come on, ellismera, put up or be stille.
(OK, I can use Google! Razz)

I'm going to plagiarise too...
My version of the first verse.

Tell me your secrets,
But tell me no lies,
Recount everything,
You love or despise.

Did I mess it up, lahardane?
Did you particularly want the lies? Confused
While 'tell me' sounds good to me, I don't like 'recount me'.
'Recount to me' would sound OK to me though.
The other changes are to get the line lengths the same.

I'm hoping the OP, averagemale, will throw in his version.

Fight! Fiiiight!
The Flirtbox Poetry Palme d'Or Melee has started!
