I hope this comes out right lol.


All jumbled up
As I’m sitting here,
Listening to the singing of the rain
My thoughts wander to you.
I envision your perfect beauty
My thoughts
Are
All
Jumbled
Up

I’m trying to show you
You tell to trying I’m
That I love you
But you don’t seem to care
You don’t seem to care!
I wish
I knew
What
To
Do
Do you
Love me?
Or
Not?
Do you even care
?
I wish you’d
Sign a give
Can I
Love…
You?

I like the second stanza, a lot :)

Did you mean to center the text? Or why it's not coming out right?

Its supposed to be all jambled up...lines starting in different places, some lines written backwards etc, but I cant get it that way in that post :( And that really contributed to the overall feel of the poem

AHHHH, maybe you could type that in MS Word and attach the file? I think it's possible, just an idea, don't ask me how to do that, never done that, just think it's possible :)
*edit*
btw, I copy/pasted your poem into MS Word and centered it... looks nice :)
*edit2* lol, wanted to edit spelling, someone locked the site though :p;):D

How cool, sycho. The format reminds me much of E.E. Cummings.

I guess the idea sprang to mind because we did some E.E Cummings at school. It was fun writing it though, it was something totally new for me writing that way and its cool :D

sycho_warrior, using the formatting buttons at the top of the reply box, the `B' for bolding, `I' for italics etc...


you can indent some of the text

or
center it

or
align it to the right

or
align it to the left

or

but if you copy and paste something that is spaced this way that you typed somewhere else, it may not work.

It WON'T work, the forum 'translates' it like a html source, more than 1 space is still only 1 space.
