So i've wanted a tat since i got a mind, I really want a strong piece of poetry, I have a couple of ideas I'll put down. The tattoo is going to be on my the left side of my back (have to get surgery on my right shoulder) starting at the top of my shoulder well like an inch down, and prob go down like a foot and 4 inches wide.

so here is one option, i wrote it myself.

I am karma

You do good I do good too

you do wrong and I'll throw it back at you

today I've seen the things you've done

I saw the see and have seen the shore

dumping greatness into the poor

I am just as equal as I was created

I was never loved yet never hated

you've seen me taken youve seen me given

yet you've never heard or have seen my rythem

i am karma i lead to trail

but I'll follow you through the rain and hail

just to give you what you deserve

because I am Karma and thats what i serve

I kind of like it but not a whole lot.

Or Novermber, by Sadistik

In greener pastures, where the rain is never out/

And your face is replaced by another/

November's leaves stay, but have changed for the summer/

(and my) hope meddles (where I) go settle/

In the line that blurs from love to rose petals/

And the silence hurt, so I just followed through/

On a beaten street, never reaching peaks which I saw in you/

And now I see that you just took me for granted/

Had a diamond in the rough and you still took me for granite/

Cuz in November we gazed at mountain scapes/

With each wave, symbolizing thïngs that wed make/

Love and war we were born as keepsakes/

To underscore loves accord when peace breaks, In November/

Both need to be shortened up quiet a bit. If anyone has any great poems pleaseeeeeeeee gimme gimme

Actually no, I just want a tattoo on my wrist that says 420 but in roman numerals with like really thick faunt. ya that will be sick
 
thats such a sick and original idea!!!
How many lines are you thinking about getting? you said you wanted to shorten it up, and i'd like to try to help you.
 
I also love macklemore

I think i want this maybe

a friend of mine once told me

we have many paths in this journey

they act in different directions

so when you question don't be worried

it's not a wrong one

beuaty can be found in all of them

you'll meet people whose paths intersect

but you don't know how long you'll walk with them

cos the truth is, and it's so hard, but you'll never know

how long we'll continue with our loved ones down this rugged road

the path veers and it's clear that we must steer alone

(however?) you can't hold on to that moment that exists--

let it go

here is the full song

hold your head up, there's a light in the sky

i know you're fed up, but you must try to survive

each moment's precious, don't let life pass you by

keep focused, keep your eyes on the prize

(however?) you can't hold on to that moment that exists--

let it go

cos freedom is god

freedom is acknowledging the mask you have on

and possessing the strength to take it off

freedom is accepting every step of the path

and when it's hard having faith in the ability to embrace that

that's where you are

and this is it

the same shit that we work towards, but go against in the same sense

my friend hip' me to some game and truth unravelled, she said

"the brighter the light, the darker the shadow"

and since i'm on cliche terms, knowing is half the battle

but i don't know

so i just go with what was destined

life can be a burden or a blessing

the choice is yours to be connected

it's there if you want it, you got it, now let it

hold your head up, there's a light in the sky

i know you're fed up, but you must try to survive

each moment's precious, don't let life pass you by

keep focused, keep your eyes on the prize

i feel like i have nothing to give right now

this is my trial, tribulations, and it must go down

but where's the up?

i'm stuck with the broken smile

no jokin' now, wantin' to grab a swish and smoke this out

the moment of a man choosing what path i will go down

do i give in, give up, or get up and live right now?

with a split gut pick myself up and spit my style

this is the only thing that can (holds?) my ground

you're born into this world alone and alone you'll go out

all i have is myself and everyone else i doubt

you can only trust yourself and depend on the help of the pound

inside the chest that beats with the breath of the now

no sunshine when she's gone, i can only see clouds

no homies can hold me down, the spirit's testing me now

but i can withstand this world, but it seems so foul

flood of emotions, it's like i'm being held down to drown

hell's right around the corner, but i can turn it around

you always have a choice, no matter the situation you're not bound

to nothing, no one, you're chosen for this job

this is your life, you can't escape this bitch when it's hard

just know that it passes, but you'll collect scars

they never go away, but they will make you who you are

this is a beautiful struggle, i share it in song cos

i can't control this, remember: the moment's beyond us

hold your head up, there's a light in the sky

i know you're fed up, but you must try to survive

each moment's precious, don't let life pass you by

keep focused, keep your eyes on the prize
 
hahha no! its the top paragraph i want

1278872580possible.jpg


I'm thinking right there, anyone with any imput?
 
uhm, something italic not too girly but kind of rustic and italic

or just the artists handwriting
 
just would not look good at all your not angelina jolly.... and she looks like an idiot just get something short and sweet that means a lot to you
 
angelina Jolly? ha, fuck no i'm not copying her. This is short and sweet and it does mean alot to me
 
hahaha fucking macbook auto correct but im not saying you are copying her just thats its a little to long maybe smaller font then?
 
ya but its pretty spaced right now, I'm going to talk to the artist who is goign to do it, the spacing in between the lines is pretty large right now, prob
 
no one is going to sit there and read that whole thing so this would pretty much be purely for you. I'm not a huge fan of phrases for tats or tats on girls in general. to any onlooker that sees this is just going to look like a bunch of jibberish anyways
 
i guess if it has some sentimental meaning go for it. but other wise i would pick something a little shorter i do like the phrase though, hope it turns out well.
 
hi. wanna makeout?

but in all serous-ness, i like the spot of the tattoo and the poem. but make sure your not just doing it to do it. cause i constantly think of tattoo ideas and a month or 2 later i'm thinking of something else.
 
youre obviously going to get it done regardless of what people say in this thread anyways. i would just do it
 
just get twin butterflies or flowers or stars right in the small of your back. that's what everyones doing!!!!
 
that was just a guess of putting it, its not going to be in that faunt, previously discussed. I know what I want as in area and wording. I would like it to curve with my back. This artist def knows how to get it done. I have an idea and the artist can give me her wordsthis is who i'd like to do it.http://chalicetattoo.com/artists/?artist=1
 
If you have a good idea of what you want, go in to talk to the artist to get his/her opinion. They'll be able to give you a couple of good suggestions.
 
im currently finishing up designing my next tattoo, probably going into consult an artist this week, but that looks like a good spot for it, dont listen to the haters saying that no one will ever read it because people take the time to ask about tattoos all the time, maybe a more abridged version would be better, but sick idea, post pics when you get it done id love to see it
 
just actually read the poems, and sorry, but they are very lame, the idea of tattooing a poem on you, actually tattoos in general is lame as fuck.
