Cacophany by *Ramuel
I happen to love a good rhyming poem, (not everyone can do it well you know), but this poet does. Cacophany plays with you just a little, talks about the sound and then puts it in unexpected places. The rhythm is not destroyed but it does make you laugh and that, especially, gave this poem DailyD.

What do you want when you read any poem?
Should it sound like those in an ancient tome;
And have flowing patterns of chiming rhymes,
With a constant meter and length of lines?
Would you like lovely lies of love lit eyes
And finds of floral features in her guise?
Or should I stop and break into cacophony?
Add harsh, stiff, piercing terminology,
Talk of darkness, death, your soul being rent;
Heartbreak causing shame and hatred and blame.
And I’ll break from my patterns - confuse your expectations
Of this poem by ending in
The wrong places and putting rhymes inside the lines, but not at the ends.
But maybe you’d like that, and I’d hate pleasing you.
So I’ll just keep rhyming by adding shoe.
Go back to my meter of gentle rolls,
That you might recite on your daily strolls;
Or maybe you’d ignore on most nights.
But I’ll stay here, because that’s how I write.

Friendship
There's nothing as nice as someone who shares,
Your laughter, your secrets, your wishes and cares,
Someone who's there through your good times and tears,
Who stays by your side as your friend through the years.
Literature
A decade of friendship
Right since the start of year one
I knew you would be a good friend
We always had our fun
And on each other we\'d depend
When the world was a lonely place
We\'ve always had each other
Even when we need our space
I know there\'ll never be another
You listen when I talk to you
You care when I\'m in pain
I hope to god that I did too
Because our friendship could never be in vain
Some may try as hard as they can
Though this bond we share can not be spoken
Through the strength of many men
Our friendship can never be broken
We\'ve shared our triumphs and our falls
Though each other we would always defend
And when I hear it\'s you t
Literature
The tipping of scales
(I miss) You
The tipping of scales;
Alone, pain without pleasure,
I miss me with you.
I long for balance,
Paradox of your passion,
Autumn blossoming.
In breadth of your touch
I fill my lungs with your breath.
Exhale into you
Unspoken comfort.
From the nothingness of words
Comes my lust for you.
With the tie of two
Entangled bodies of flesh
Inside becomes out.

I don't actually always use meter and rhyme, it was just a good way to end the poem (I usually do, though).
