Green Garments

My garments are green shaded
Immersed in thunder and raided
By a pure symphony of lightning
That will forever shine, dancing

My garments, they bewilder
They startle in manners tender
Shock both common and bourgeois
They think me a fool in need of solace

My garments will not change
Not for my love nor for any range
I will carry my pledge to the grave
And I do not need anyone's rave.

^Thanks, Triplet!

And now here's my second poem:

Games and Other Things

It's always push and pull
First you like me then you don't
Then you can't and then you won't
It always feels like breaking rules
It's a tug of war, it's a marathon
Worst thing is, they're always ahead
And I know it's nothing I ever said
'Coz I said nothing and yet I'm lone
I don't know this dating game
What do I do, who do I trust?
All to all is nothing but dust
And everything is always the same.

Rainbows:

Rainbows:
A study in colour
A perfect picture
Life depicted
In lovely multicolour.

Rainbows:
One small deed
Split into seven
Physical phenomena
Prismatic in appearance.

Rainbows:
Sunshine and rain
Transcended light
No shadow apparent
Perhaps invisible?

Rainbows:
Different feelings denoted
Violet mystery and red passion
All colours made to finish
A human in its glory.

My Room

My room is a prison
A life behind rules
Where time is no fun
And I am only a mule.
My room is a castle
Strengthened by hate
Locked in with dazzle
Where nothing may sate
My room is a snare
Within all boundaries
To enchant all near
With the promise of a kiss
My room is a fake
And so am I too
Whatever I make
I can only rue.

Garments - I liked this one, I actually found there to be a lot of humor in it, like a sassiness meets formal "they bewilder, they startle in manners" the rhymes keep it light xD


Games and Rainbows - You do a lovely job with rhymes and flow, I like the end stanza of rainbow: all colors made to finish a human in its glory - that is satisfying!

Room - don't rue it! Keep it going, show us more!<3



Congratulations!
