Be not proud death
For you are not what I fear
For neither are you what I crave

A pain like no other given by you
Creates a world full of my anger.
A loss that cannot be bared
Becomes my world of grief.

Be not proud death
For you are not what I fear
For neither are you what I crave

A confined area within my mind
Consists solely of your presence.
A slight admiration of the power you withhold
But more admiration for how you intrigue my thought.

Be not proud death
For you are not what I fear
For neither are you what I crave
Okies, well mr showed me some poems earlier and I read this poem, and it kinda inspired me to write it how I see it so I don;t think tis copying (I hope) Anyhoo the poem is called:
Be not proud death ~ John Donne... tis rather amazing

Very well written =D

You definitely aren't copying;
The intention of a poem is to inspire as does life.

The first stanza is so simple, yet has so much meaning.

" confined area within my mind
Consists solely of your presence.
A slight admiration of the power you withhold
But more admiration for how you intrigue my thought."

That!

Is just excellent (to put it simply).

I liked this much much =)
