I have always loved this thread on the Blunty boards and as this is my favourite board now I thought we could have it here as well 
You can post your poems and other kinds of poetry here.
I will begin... I have just finished this poem as I needed to draw a line under something that has been bothering me for two months now and I simply can't endure this any longer. Some of you know what has been happening as I mentioned it on Myspace. It is called Neither Fool Nor Liar.
-----------------------------------------------
Neither Fool Nor Liar
All tenderness gone,
Only dry tears left,
No more memories striking my soul,
No more hopes suffocating my heart,
The injured thing that hardly survived.
Yet I picked up the pieces,
Each painful little part,
Realizing they could not fit anymore
Like an incomplete puzzle or a broken glass
With edges as hurtful and deadly
As the knife that did the damage to me.
My own knife as I now see...
The burden I bore,
A curse preventing the wound from healing,
Keeping it wide open, deep and sore.
Yet I now see it was my own,
The blade that did the disastrous cut
Making all dreams and profoundest wishes shut.
So it was my weapon,
But your hand that finally stroke,
Your hand that fulfilled the scathing
On a small thing that simply craved for more,
Always to weak to make a move and let it happen,
Though honest and caring from its deepest grounds.
Did you not hear it crack
When you broke the bounds?
The deadly sound of being left behind,
The most desperate cry of human kind.
And so months went by without any change
Findings grew and were dropped again
Thus you abandoned me and stirred the pain,
Blaming me for things I had not done,
Disappointing me by every mean,
Not even regretting the story seemed over.
And now it is, on my own choice
For I found you are not as worthy as I thought,
And I apologize, I was so wrong,
Not worthy enough for the story to live on,
Or to let the faintest sight of hope continue,
Or to let it strengthen
As such things involutarily do
Even on paths determined to end.
So I cut the bound
And killed all desire,
For I'm neither a fool
Nor a liar.
