So do you write poetry or even music? If so how long have you been doing it for and what got you started?
For me I have been writing for 8 years and I just one day took a pen and paper and started to write. I wrote more after 1998 when my grandmother died.

Well, I am only 14 years old, so I have been writing poetry for 3 years, scince 6th grade. Im in 8th grade now. (yes Im that young) Anyway, I love to write poetry. The most recent one that I wrote is the one below. Its about dolphins.
DOLPHINS
I watch them play in the moonlight I watch them dance in the sun At peace with each other Together as one They raced through the waves Until the day was done Filling the sea with happiness Creating tides of endless fun
I see them care for one another Treating others with love Singing to the depths And the stars above Gliding through their sea of light Graceful as a dove
They bring peace with them everywhere Around them life is never dull Yet it has so much meaning So bright and so full I am dazzled by their beauty And the strength of their soul
Pushing through the turquoise ocean They leap and they play They show that there is happiness Even on a rainy day How I wish to be with them For that I pray I still wonder If there is a way
How I wish to swim with them In the ocean so free Away from my enemies In a place where I could be me In a place where peace and love Is all that I see In a place where pain is left behind Replaced with glee How I wish to dance with them In their beautiful sea
Until that day comes To join them in their lair All I can do is watch All I can do is stare Wondering what it is like To be there
They have a world That man carelessly left behind A freedom that exists Only in one's mind A lost world That man is still trying to find Yet I can't help in the search All I can do is watch it unwind
Yeah, anyway, I know its not a poem that most people would be interested in, but I would love to hear opinions.

Hi,
Well for me it’s when I was in the 3rd grade. My teacher assigned a short story. Well my friend and me decided to make both ours go together. Then everyone loved them and we started making more. Anyways there were 12 issues of them. The last one I wrote by myself. It was 15 pages front and back. It was a masterpiece. My teacher still has it. Anyways the stories were like about hunted stories and had people in our class in it. It was a really creative story type thing. Anyways after that I got out of writing for about 5 months I guess. Then this girl had hurt me in the 4th grade (puppy love) and I started to write poems/rhymes.
And ever since I have been writing poems, stories, lyrics, and anything else like just jotted down notes. I usually only write when I am really happy or when I am sad, which lately I have been sad a lot so yea. I have been writing a poem for about a week now trying to figure out what it is that hurts inside me. Anyways yea I might post it later.

Well, I just can't seem to get good poetic stuff into what I've tried to write (assonance, metaphors all that stuff). And whenever I write a poem, it's too direct and uses regular language.
