I am colour
I wonder why others weep
I hear radiohead's paranoid android
I see new life
I am free

I pretend that I am an old chinese woman
I feel a thousand ants on my back
I touch my mothers face with cold fingers
I worry that I won't succeed
I cry when others cry
I am love

I understand nothing
I say everything
I dream of change
I try to love
I hope to be great
I am old
SO basically the form of this poem is:
I am
I wonder
I hear
I see
I am

I pretend
I feel
I touch
I worry
I cry
I am

I understand
I say
I dream
I try
I hope
I am
---

So if you want to try it go a head, I'll read it. I think ti was a rather fun first assignment in my creative writing class..no doubt they'll get better.

Reflection of Darkness

I am the darkness within you
I wonder about the world around me
I hear the screaming of little children
I see the pain within your eyes
I am dark of night

I pretend to be real
I feel like a parasite
I touch your soft smooth skin
I worry that I hurt you
I cry when you cry
I am the evil which lurks within you

I understand that you don't love me
I say words that you don't hear
I dream of the ending silence
I try to heal you
I hope that you accept me
I am the reflection of yourself
