Contest [Issue 20] Romantic Poetry

[SakuraVisions 120]

Tankmen! Valentine's Day will soon be upon us and love is in the air! Show off your poetic skills to the community with a short poem dedicated to someone or something you love!

 

Your task: Write a poem of any kind or format (obviously more effort will be rewarded, so don't expect a haiku to win). Maximum length of 32 lines (about eight stanzas if you do a traditional format).

 

Theme: The poem has to be clearly related to love of some kind. Other entries will not be considered. The poem may or may not be related to Tanki, that is your call. However, if you use a Tanki Theme, it may be more rewarding. You will be judged upon rhythm, rhyme, vocabulary, humour and originality.

 

As for the rewards:

 

First place will receive 50,000 crystals.

 

Second place will receive 40,000 crystals.

 

Third place will receive 30,000 crystals.

 

Other notable entries may receive a small consolation prize.

 

The contest will be judged by a panel of reporters including myself. You have until February 23rd, 2014 to submit your entries. Submitting your entries earlier is typically a good idea.

 

Entries are to be submitted in this topic. Any other messages here other than submissions will be removed. Additionally, there is a discussion thread that can be found here: http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=187819

 

And finally, to get you started on the right path, here's an example that I put together for you:

___________________________________

 

I sit on the cold hard ground alone

My heart and soul broken

Without the girl on the other side

Of the cell...

 

What can I do, to release the pain

And free myself from torture's reign

Engulfed by lonely feeling

With no way of healing

Aside from uniting with love.

 

How do I break the iron gate

Is it possible or am I too late

To escape from this prison 

And be finally risen

And unite with the one I love.

 

The only one that cares about me

She and I are meant to be

I'll find a way to set us free

And come together in unity

Together with my true love.

___________________________________

 

Good luck!

You shoot me with firebird
I get hot
My eyes get blurred
I start to lose the plot

Because in my eyes
You are perfect
I am affected
I am in love

Not the paint!
Really I am madly in love
You leave and come back with freeze
Oh what a saint

You spray me with love
I get cool
I feel like a fool
Thinking you would leave me

I'm so happy
With freeze you've saved my life

My life doesn't seem so crappy
Now you're in my life

My love has arrived
His name is
Thanks to him I have survived.
I love you, soon to be your Mrs.Perfection

I like food,
It fixes my mood.
It's all about the juicy taste,

It shouldn't go to waste.

 

We enjoy the nutritional support,
We shall need it, if we engage in a sport.
Energy; food provides plenty
We need more, if we're over twenty.

 

A great dish, we should all savor,
Eat slowly, as we taste the flavor.
Choose our very favorite cuisine,
Is it Orange? Or is it green?

You're the reason i get up everyday

i found you when i lost my way

when i saw you on the play day

my eyes couldn't bounce away

so i wish to take you on my sleigh

seeing you into another day

feeling happy in every way

until we come to that disastrous day

we we decide to spread away

then the end is almost clear

we come for one final cheer

then the end is a distant smear

Big pro flae, big pro flae,

Every tank is his prey.

He will kill you night and day,

All hail, big pro flae!

 

Big pro flae, big pro flae,

His Rail will hit you like a ray!

To stay alive, keep away,

All hail, big pro flae!

 

Big pro flae, big pro flae,

When he shoot you, you decay!

With his Twins he will spray,

All hail, big pro flae!

 

Big pro flae, big pro flae,

Do not laugh at what I say.

If you do, then go away,

All hail, big pro flae!

There was once a elephant named Bob.

He makes us sob.

Oh, what a shame,

that he lost his legs.

 

There was once a elephant named Bob.

He jumped on a trampoline,

Eating tortellini.

He slipped and fell,

He went down well.

 

There was once a elephant named Bob.

He was in pain,

but he gained fame,

Despite losing two limbs,

He wanted some fins.

 

There was once a elephant named Bob.

Bob wanted to be something new,

But if only he knew,

That he was too big to be a fish.

Unfortunately, Bob ended up on someone's dish.

 

There was ONCE a elephant ( and fish) named Bob.

My Love for You

 

My love for you is eternal,

No matter how daunting the fight,

No matter how many must die,

I will persevere, without flight.

 

My love for you is soothing,

When frozen, I warm you to life,

When burning, I relieve the pain,

When hurt, I take away your strife.

 

My love for you is strong,

It can take constant, merciless fire,

It can resist even the toughest blows,

And it will never cease to tire.

 

My love for you is resilient,

It stands firm against attrition,

It stands proud against pessimism,

It stands victorious over competition.

 

I need no protection or camouflage,

To guard my love for you.

Against infernos, needles, tigers, or gods,

It will stand ever firm for you.

 

I need no drug to save my heart,

From falling, love struck, for you.

If even it was just half as much,

I hope you love me too.

 

No matter how long the struggle,

My spirit will never fade.

Against mammoths, hunters and even titans,

They will all fall at my blade.

 

No matter how many stand against me,

No matter how many block my way,

I prepare myself to fight for you,

One golden touch, to make my day.

 

Hope you got the battle, turret(firebird, freeze, isida, twins, shaft), paint(inferno, needle, taiga, Zeus), drug, hull and gold box inferences! Completely original :)

love is not a playing thing.

it t comes to everybody in life,

even to a pair of freeze with in love paint

when the love becomes lie,we faint

if it is real,we act as saint

 

pink or red ,a symbol of love

but not a black or brown,a symbol on dove

dont love too much

 

how much you are loving is limited

but when it hurts you,your sadness is unlimited

isida,freeze and a firebird

firebird fly as a fire falcon to love

isida always kisses a turrent,

freeze fully freeze a tank by love

by this itself,they got angry and slap on face,

your life is fate

[sillyedwin20 112]

When I was trapped in a world with no colour,

no life, nothing gave me hope.

 

I lived life day by day swallowed in my own despair.

Then you came into my life, you gave my world colour and light.

 

You healed my broken heart that had sunk into depression and you changed my life.

 

To me,    

you're the best thing that ever ever happened to me.

 

I live only for your smile and I am yours alone.

Fate brought us together so let our love bloom like a rose.

 

Love is fragile and the tiniest thing can break it,

fate tied us together so have some spirit,

 

because I believe in you,

and you must too,

lets just look to the future.

                                                                                                        You came to me wearing bright roses,

                                                                                                             Red like the wine of your heart;

                                                                                                           You twisted them into a Garland

                                                                                                             To set me aside from the mart

 

                                                                                                            Enslaved and Encircled, I bore it,

                                                                                                              Proud token of my gift to you,

                                                                                                      The petals waned paler, and shrivelled,

                                                                                                 And dropped; And the thorns started through.

                                                                                                     Bitter thorns to proclaim me your lover,

                                                                                                              A Diadem woven with rue.

 

                                                                                                                           I love You

This girl name Kailey,
Such a cute and pretty,
Such a nice and lovely,
That make my heart melted.

Her eyes , her smiles,
Can make all people fall in love,
Her hair , her face,
Is perfect in people eyes.

Oh my dear Kailey,
I keep seeing you from far,
I don't want you to know,
That I have fall in love with you.

Oh my dear Kailey,
Maybe one day when I'm ready,
I will try and try to get you,
Because I will always love you forever and after.

I see you with a firebird,

good things I have heard,

You made me smile,

My heart stopped for a while,

 

You also had a dictator, 

which made my love for you greater,

 

I have the freeze,

I thought i made your heart feel the breeze.

I also had a titan,

who made your heart brighten.

My gift to you is my love

Given from deep within my heart

It is the best I have to offer

And its yours until death do us apart

I love you more than you know,

I want to spend every moment with you,

and you know you want it too.

If Your asking if I’ll Leave U the answer is Never

If Your asking what I value the Answer is U

if Your asking if I love U the answer is I do.

If I reached for your hand , will u hold it ?

If I hold out my arms, will u hug me ?

If I go for your lips, will u kiss me ?

If I capture ur heart , will u love me ??

If a kiss was a raindrop i’d send u showers.

If a hug was a second i’d send u hours.

If a smile was water i’d send u a sea.

If love was a person i’d send u me…..

Love is blind .. Be very kind .. When I kiss you …Please don’t mind

All I wanted was sum1 2 care 4 me

All I wanted was sum1 who’d b there 4 me

All I ever wanted was sum1 who’d b true

All I ever wanted was sum1 like U…

God is wise when he did not put a price tag on you darling. If he did, I won’t be able to afford to have a boyfriend (girlfriend) as precious as you.

I miss the laughs I used to get from you, I miss the talks we used to have. And above all, I just miss YOU!

Let`s share the world.

A sea is for you, and waves are for me.

The sky is for you, and stars are for me.

The sun is for you, and light is for me.

Everything is for you, and you are for me…

Every time i miss you, a star falls.

So if you ever look up at the sky and the stars are gone,

its because you made me miss you too much!

3 – 2 = one heart praying 4 you

1 + 1= two eyes looking for you

3+2= five sensesmissing you.

4+3= seven days in a week i desire you.

7+5= 12months asking god to bless you

If Your asking if I Need U the answer is 4Ever

 

 

The sad in apart,

The hope in tomorrow,

The joy in my heart.

Hearts could only luv 4 a while u can put many relations in a file, u can make a desert from the Nile, but u can’t stop my smile when I c ur name on my phone. You put the fun in together

[Redwall2 18]

Roses are red

....................................................o..................................................

You are the only game

I love to play

You give me the only fun

I need everyday

 

You are so addictive

I can’t stay without playing, for a day

I tried spending one day playing other games

But, I couldn’t stay away

 

You provide me the crystals

which seems money to me

You are like the best job

I can even work for free

 

You are the only game, I play

I am waiting for you again in this Valentine

You are different from all other games

The most popular, Tanki Online

The love in Tanki

 

I was carying the flag

When Isida came to my back

She said-You'r on 0 health

Do you think you are a stealth?

 

I shall heal you in no time

You are going to be mine

Then I fell in love with her

But she never did return

 

Waited weeks for my love

Then i saw her in Kungur

Healing an another tank

Who was carying the flag

 

I though that my love is special

Realized its just a lie

I was mad at everyone

So i left the game with tears...
