She'd been dead only an hour and the stars have already welcomed her. She's silent as the warmth devours her, slowly and wholly. "Dance with me and let's pretend the world doesn't exist." they faintly whispered.
I can’t help but glance
And often look back
Your presence overwhelms me and makes it hard to breath
Forgive me for my act of coldness and my lack of interest
Upon the place fate set aside,
there will be no forget-me-nots.
There will be no roses adored in gold, nor any violets or honeysuckle.
Cursed is this fate, holding onto the limbs of destiny.
I think when the earth was young a meteor from somewhere in the cosmos crash landed on the surface, exploding for miles and miles, And ever since then the pieces have been traveling through water and air over land and sea, or through anything that
Only 21:00
Dressed to kill, we arrive
shots clink under a disco ball
I sparkle, silhouette sublime
Only 22:00
Too early in the night to give up
The club is empty of good talk
We occasionally fall in love with the right person
With the perfect, the immaculate or the wrong one
We’re naturally numb
When we fall in love
New births each day
beneath the oceans
Gracious feast and luxurious moments.
Spicy existences
Brain before body
Response to stimulus
Required for life
Required for happiness
If not made by you
It will be made for you
If not from you first
It doesn’t matter
Your perception
Be careful with your definition
Vital part of life
Forth then back
Teeter then totter
Deflected off
Not quite straight back
Creation lives here
Or so says the universe
It feels different
Makes you want to question
Don't resist
Pay attention
Power lives in the changes
The world turns
The sun rises
Morning breaks as you realize
It’s time for movement
It’s time for change
The world turns
Dark and long goes the road
Middle line stretches straight as if never ending
Lights only show so far
But the line streams out straight into the black
It based on results it won’t last
Failure is coming and shatters perfection
Have you walked the path?
Have you put in the work?
Our fleeting view of reality
Check points ensure accuracy
Balance your views
Mesh with humanity
Pursue beauty and truth
How do you love someone
Someone you know at their core
The ins and outs, good and bad
You know every thought and desire
You stand in judgement
Panic rages
Anxiety attacks
Fear abounds
How to make it stop
Weather it?
Fight it?
Breeding ground for inaction
It is not words
It's not only thoughts
Less talking required
Internal rooting necessary
Drive your legs down
Let your feet firmly plant
Future
The future’s power
Unlimited in nature
Where creativity lives
To shape the present
Past
i awoke and pondered how the day would unfold
then i paced and wondered what each minute would hold
'til the seconds unfurled and the clock hands whirled
and the smirking moon curled, the night sighed, stars twirled
My emotions are paralysed by fear,I am so scared that no one will hear.So stuffed in a bottle and thrown in the sea,bobbing up and down in the centre of me. Armed with a smile to mask over my cries,I must admit it’s a brilliant disguise.You would
I know that this sounds crazy, but I just can't seem to let it go.
Everyone around me keeps telling me to stop hanging on, and to just go with the flow.
"YOU COULD DO BETTER EXPLORE MORE"
You know
you can do
better.
Explore more!
You
are
limitless,
unstoppable
and
unlimited.
I was misguided.Interpreting all of my feelings wrong
I don't want to travel
I want to see world,In one person.And have them want me back, forever
So For Whom Will The BELL REALLY TOLL … ?!?
Online TROLLS Whose Comments Go Up Peoples' Nose …. !?!
A leap of faith
The choice is never easy
And the leap never the same
Always clouded with doubt
The end is never certain
A leap of faith
For the lost souls and the misguided in life
Let me shelter you from strife
Let me shepherd you to new light
Take up your own path and leave me
She was the most beautiful thing in the room
He gazed upon her radiance in awe of her,
Her eyes soon met his and he was engulfed by her warmth
For in her eyes he saw galaxies
I started this job ready to focus on my work and not fall in love with someone that I have to see everyday,
But it didn't take long for me to get excited to see you daily, and sturggle to find the right words to say.
DREAM RHYME
Thinking of her
Out of the blue
Wondering where she is
What she's about to do ....
I stop my work
drop my pen
My mind wanders to a time when ....
MY NATURAL HIGH
She's my natural high
My red carpet ride
To another world
Alone with me ....
The wind
that ruffles her hair
And the rain
It had to be fate,
Running into you again.
I'd thought I was too late,
But there you were, God-sent.
That hug, you're warm embrace,
Suggested more than friends.
Everything is falling into place,
NIGHT WALK
I want to walk with you at night.
Where you walk alone in the morning light.
When the rising sun pushes away the moon.
Where you walk six hours before noon ....
LIKE A SUMMER BREEZE
Walking with a cane
You came into my lane.
Jumbled my ways
My nights became days.
I’ve felt this breeze before
I thought. For sure!
REAR VIEW
I think of my past.
Because you are here at last. It becomes clearerIn life’s rear view mirror ....
OUT OF TOUCH
You're feeling bad
Out of touch .... aren't you girl?
Life has taken you on a whirl
Don't let it steal your joy
You're not in anyone's employ....
sometimes the sign you have been looking for is bright and fluourescent
invading the stormy blue sky
sometimes its just a whisper in your ear
soft and subtle
like the brush of a butterfly wing
YOU SAY
You say ... only time will tell.
I say ... I want to hear your heart's bell.
I don’t need you.
But my heart wants to.
My soul does not need you.
BONNIE and CLYDE
The clock passed the covid curfew
And I'm still with you.
On stolen time
Trying to see new love rhyme.
We are Bonnie and Clyde
Lovers on the hide.
yesterday i stole time
i snuck in while destiny was asleep
and hid the seasons away
i don't want to worry that there will never be enough of it to spend with you
ON A SWING
In the morning when the sun clicks on and she gives a sighAt the last evening star dancing in the pale blue skyThat's when I dream
Of her and me
On a swing....
LADY DAY
Let’s give all to this flower of ours....We’ve been alive without love for too many hours....With others but always alone....With some sun
VULNERABILITY
It’s a marvelous sight
to open the curtain
and give the stage
to vulnerability
with her sweet rage
she's the sister of love
so free
ARTS GARAGE
I loved each moment
At Arts Garage
A blues music barrage
Then walking the street at large...
Your touch
Your smile
And for a little while
LAY WITH LOVE
All I want to do Is make love to you With poetryWith musicAnd a caress or two
That boils your heart
A dreamy kiss
That melts like butter in sun
BEING MY REAL
What matters now is how I feel
and being my real.....
I am drifting on my boat and you're on shore
Waving to me.. shouting.. "give me more"
IT FLOWS THROUGH ME
The rising sun kisses the day
The breeze flows to me
It has something to say ....
It ruffles my hair
I wonder what is to be
What we will discover
Gypsy Queen. On me leanBe my Gypsy Lover....
The song you sing Makes love swing
So play away
To my heart each day
And be my Gypsy lover....
To the wind I will sing:
MELTED KISS
That night
We danced tight
To the rhythms of the floor
Wanting the band to play more
At Club Colette
With the beach jet set....
It was so so right
TABLE 26
I must sayYou were lovely today
With laughter of fun
I long the return of your sun
And to play
With Your smile of wonder
And dance with you
Untill dawn at six
EVERY MOVE
I’m free to love. Let me be free. A free lover. To All of you.
If you need me Call my name. If you want me You can do the same.
LIONESS
Go into your cave Lick your woundsI understand You're a leo too....
You give all of what you gotAll that you can do....
KISS ME YOU FOOL!!
I know you understand me
It's uncanny
We have a rhyme Unlike the many we spent time ....
SHOOTING STAR
Shooting star Yet so farDancing on the ocean breezeSoundless musicPlays on let it burn with ease That's what it does....
YOU, ME and THE SEA
The wind carried the ocean’s voice to me
she whispered:
“Come to me my lover
I hear you love another
Bring her to me
IT’S ALL ABOUT LOVE
Did you feel the rain?
The pictures and words
that floated by tonight...
Did you listen To the rain?
That tapped your shoulder
AND WE FOUND ALL THAT
I know agony.
I know victory.
I thought I knew love...
My nights sleeping with shadows
of empty arms.
And lonely dreams
MY HEART FLIES
My heart flies to you
No one in the world
Moves me like you do..
Wings to lift my heart
When we are apart
Until I'm in your arms
Once again
And then...
LOVE TELLS NO LIES
Tell me what it's like
To see a sad man
From inside your eyes...
Do we know
How to say
I am sorry
Not to worry....
Show me the way....
BUTTERFLIES AND SWEET DREAMS
A moment together filled with butterflies and sweet dreams.
Like the dark wind of the night,
You left the poet in my heart wanting
As you sang your song...
THE MUSIC OF MY HEART
I heard the kiss
you blew
my way.
It brought me to you.
This lover's play ...
All through the
morning rain
I gaze and say.
A LOVER'S NOTION
How could you knowI miss you so....
We've been apartImprisoned by disdainListen to my heartLet it explain....
JULY 12
Twenty weeks ago In a boat on a floating cloud With marmalade trees and Milky Way skies
Nothing but real allowedOnly natural highs....
My jack.. my wonderful jack! You have the whole world before you Your skies are blue The sun shines through....
A life so promising All that's new Stars are dancing Awaiting for you....
If my fate is written in the stars,
then never shall I look to the sky.
No part of this universe
can tell me who I am,
can tell me what I am.
In the midst of a forgotten forest,
among old trees and new,
grew a plant, green and fresh as young schoolboy,
curled slightly towards the the glorious sun,
feeling a sense of satisfaction and pride
One thousand pieces spread across the table;
Completely overwhelmed with where to start.
At first look, they blend among the others,
But different shades are obsolete to the norm.
We've made some some good memories together,
Making them seem like they were forever,
everywhere i go reminds me of you,
Just to think it makes me blue,
As the years fade away,
nows there less time to say,
come along to the new year
where everyone can see
a world of opportunity
the people are abuzz
with new ideas
of how to face their biggest fears
a chance for a do-over

Gone again,
You're not my friend,
But then again were you ever?
Fake words,
Wordless fights,
Flighty little girls.
I messaged you with no reply,
I waited to hear your voice.
Would I do it again?
I want to say yes.
I want to say I wouldn't change a thing.
But, is that really true?
Could I really do this all over again?
Am I strong enough?
Is anyone strong enough?
1, 2, 3 All Eyes On Me: is what our teacher used to say, to keep the childrens eyes on her any time off the day, are adolescent minds are so easy to sway, so here we are and here we must stay.
I stay up at night
why am I always in fright
I try my best to succed.
but it never goes right.
I lost someone dearest
I never stay fearless
I live in a game, taking the blame
An old Man lies dying
In the cradle of his birth.
Choking, Burning.
His breath grows shallow,
And his eyes fade dim.
In doom, he is
From the tales of ancient prophecy
The rivers run to eternity without end
The destiny of all things certain
A return to the same place in time
Whether she blamed him or he blames sheThe fall was always meant to be.The gift of knowledge,Forever blessed,Born from the woman’s mess.Yes it is she, sheWho stole the apple from the tree,
The ones so fearful of losing power so many centuries ago
Saw beautiful creatures times two, such a grand foe
This is where it began, the treachery to split the souls in half
Oh my!
There you are
You’ve caused me trouble,
searching for you.
Now that I have you,
I exist
In the subtle rhythms
The periphery of perception
In gentle sea breezes
And silky laughter
In the dance of falling leaves
And dreams I lust after.
I construct my reality
Coincidence is not fate
Says reality formed, looping like
Crochet work unfinished by some
Bored Deity
Coincidence is not fate
Pressure, Pressure is what looms over me.
Growing up with sense and some type of task,
Forced to be the best I can be.
School covers the face of stress with a mask.
As I sit in the dark taking my last breath, I think about you. You with all your curves and edges, your lucious locks of hair, your smell of black pepper and hand moisturizure.
There is a man of in(decision)
Or not that it is that
He is a man with (one) vision
He has but one goal
He is always decent on the (test)
Through that happy dream
Open this wide gray doorYell then step and screamWhat is this place all for?
I don't believe in omens
I don't believe in signs
Though our paths have crossed and
Our fates seem to align.
Am I in denial if "Coincidence!" I cry,
Blind to unseen strings?
Is chance a myth, a lie?
History Changed But Fate Stayed the Same
The world can be cruel sometimes,
But bare with me, it’s true
My mind thinks on Fate
As a silly old thing.
Not a speck of dust
Doesn’t cover its bald, mottled head.
Nor does rust not
Am I really the same person as I was a couple years ago?
This new person I see in the mirror tells me different
I wouldn’t say that I blossomed physically into change
Take a road on the jet-black highway,
You are about to embark on a new adventure,
The scorching sun hits the surface as the heat waves rise,
The eagles fly high above the flower-decorated cacti,
I relinquish running away,
Whatever I do, I feel astray.
Sensing jinxed from head to toe,
Now it’s time to face my foe.
From all the undying tears I’ve shed;
Though unseen, my heart has bled.
far away from me, my heart lived, secluded
and then i met you
to my unknowing mind, she came out of her shell
even though we only started as friends
everyone knew we were meant to be
Spooning with a Ghost
She is my muse
And I never lose
The chills but I’m not afraid
Because she loves me
Jealously I only worry
What will happen when I die
And her spirit is left with no one
I don't think I'm important
Which is why I become so angry
when I hear the girls in my class
typing more furiously after I make any
prompted comment of self-disclosure
then when the esteemed professor
I’m an ambitious man.
A tool of destiny, a puppet of fate,
transcending all of humanity.
Cunning and charismatic, I seek
I’ve been face to face with the Devil.
I have braved darkness, deep and shallows.
Above and beneath the bowls.
O! The howls!
I came a long way on this hell road, with my eyes closed,
I never feel like I belong anywhere and I always feel as though I'm in someone else's space. I don't think this is the way I am suppose feel, I miss being secure and stable in the person I was.
Pitong taon, Pitong taon kong hinintay ang mga katagang ni minsan ay hindi sumagi
at ni hindi minsan ay hindi namutawi sayong mga labi.
Nagsimula ang lahat sa simpleng usapan, sa simpleng kiligan, sa simpleng utuan.
Dear Poet:
I watch you tip your head back to face the breeze,
I watch you devour pieces of peaches with no concern for pretense.
Dear D,
You’re my worst enemyWho is always there with me,
From the moment I awakeTo the thoughts that I make.
Dear Fate,
Since the day I was born
exposed to the empty canvas called life,
that I was never in control of,
we’ve been playing each other.
Locked in a stalemate.
I play as the mighty king;
I think of all the hardships I’ve endured, and the streets I’ve crossed.
In the end, I still feel lost.
Is fate a thing?
The ruthless dictator
when seen from sorrowful eyes.
The empathic healer
when seen from solaced eyes.
The dutiful watcher
when seen from admiring eyes.
The reliable partner
Dear Future,
There are too many words in my head,
Yet I can’t get them down.
They swirl, they jumble,
And I begin to drown.
There are too many thoughts in my head,
That I can’t decipher.
I see too clearly
that you are
a rigid string unwilling to bend
for, or to, others. Your plans are
obscure,
complicated,
From horoscope readings
To zodiac signs
To interpreting the location of the stars in the sky
To stumbling upon one special person
Unaware of the great impact they will have on you
Whether it will be good or bad
I am scared they will find out soon in due time
‘twill be the end of promises I’ve made
Something important in exchange of mine
Fair but funny from a creature of hate
None shall find out, it will mean death if so
The truth, my pride. It's all conflicing...
See, I've been hurt so many times, ain't no tears in me.
So memory lane I'm jogging faithfully, but waking up some days...
I don't take so graciously.
It was like any other day.
The cars were honking.
The children were shouting, playing.
Someone was doing their homework.
A mom was buying groceries.
A girl and a boy were chatting endlessly.
She sits atop a jeweled throne,
her lilac hair an endless stream.
Her gold eyes are all-knowing,
and her body is furled in tenebrous shadows.
She looks at the board before her.
You were playing with my hair
As we lay there in your room
And I said baby there's something
That I gotta tell you
You looked at me with your big brown eyes
In the beginning there was us
That’s the only thing that I’m sure of
I may not know what tomorrow holds
But I know I’ll be holding you
She sits alone
With puppet strings
In her crumbling tower
On the edge of the earth
She plots and grins
As she untangles the strings
To my first love,
The exquisite pain in feeling your love, it was the very thing that kept me alive
Whether it was when we were friends, lovers, you were always by my side
Bitter Sweet Exhaustion
I wish I would have known
I wish I would have known
That beauty is a just shapeshifter that turns into the nightmare shown
Dear Destiny,
With words unspoken, you decide our fate
From the things we love to the things we hate
Who we fall in love with, and who we can't stand
Our every last wish, our every last demand
Dear Fate,
Look into my eyes
After all your pressures of time
And see how I have grown
In the adversity you have thrown.
I was a little girl
In a big, big world
Take this in, deep down inside.
With all the wrong and all the right.
Only you know, only you see.
Pulling that move was a classic.
A simple old,"reach over and fall down"
But you fell down right on my shoes.
By my feet.
Ugh.
He has stumbled upon the girl, the goal of his lifetime.
With an eternity of waiting, the two souls became one,
Swiftly, under the golden shine of dusk in the summertime.
our souls are fickle things
they float about the world
lightless and heavy
with one mission in their heart
and when your tears
hit the pillow
and dried,
i noticed that your eyes
would be as clear
as the day we met
to the day we died
your hand felt soft in mine
Sometimes you fall in love with someone at the wrong time.
Sometimes you see that pair of brown eyes
for the last time and you’ll fall.
Deeper,
And deeper.
And you always have that little bit of hope
I won't be happy when there's a frown on her face
I won't fully rest when she's not by my side
I won't relax if I'm not sure that she's safe
I love those quirks she calls flaws
I wonder how The fates decide About who lives And about who dies I question the brick I’m walking on Should it be dirt? Or should it be stone? I look at the world With unkindly eyes
They say we only do drugs like we got no ambition,
We take it personal cause deep inside we're on a mission,
But people see only the worst like they got tunnel vision,
They make us look so pathetic as if we got no wisdom,
How can you love someone else with out loving yourself?
How can you hurt yourself when you stopped beliving in yourself
you are a queen rule your empire.
I battle with fate. I battle it, I battle it!My control, not yours! Let my decisions mean something. What kind of depression comesfrom trying and doing and acting and kicking and screaming just to see
I killed youAnd you killed meMore specificallyWe killed ourselves To stay true to the scriptAnd when I draw the knifeReleasing it from my fleshIt will be warmAnd the blood will glitter
I saw you
Don't pretend like you didn't notice
We made eye contact
You swallowed
I watched your Adam's apple rise and fall
As nervousness formed pools over your pupils
Born into you,
Cant escape you,
There's no use running
I cant even hide from you;
Who convinces me
that I'm not worthy,
Who tells me
I can't do anything,
Who's love toward me
Pain, it's something some of us know to well.
Pain of loss.
Pain of gain.
Can not be eluded.
One may try.
One will fall.
One will cease, too great of pain.
An imeasureable amount of pain.
The doll of an
urban legend,
born on 5th avenue
and
made in Macy’s Herald Square,
threw away her
metro card.
Listen to me my son, you are called to teach;
Basically I’m asking you to crawl in deep;
But first, we’re gonna have to overhaul your speech;
Turbulent were waters
so much so
that
it was said
to my soul
as it faded near the dead
rise, be bold
now
go ahead
strive
causing strife within my mind
Calcify me
Make me stay
Frozen with you
until you're grey.
We're all just popsicles
on a hot summer's day,
anyway.
I am walking around in the company of friends at 2200h.
It’s a well lit highway, even more lit by our tranquil laughter.
A police land rover pulls over
Uniformed armed cops jump out
And cover us with their AK 47s.
Heed My Mind,
And Swallow My Tongue,
As I Will Subconsciously Wade,
Not Swim To My Demise,
Not A Thought Has Shone,
Shone Through The Mirror Of My Eye,
The Icy Pane Of Forgiveness,
Love surpassing something as limited as the heart and human emotion.
The seas apon the globe are nothing but mere shallow ponds
in comparison to the capacity we own as one.
You are me, I am you.
The lady in red is saying something.
She claps her hands, resting them on the desk.
Her expression is no longer taunt. Her
Words don't make her pause.
She draws those words from a book
If you told me I was good at poems,
Of this man you speak of I'd say I didn't know 'em.
I'd say I can't be good at any of this!
For I only do it for some, likely, unobtainable bliss.
We all have a detiny in life,
Some follow, and some not.
Not as easy as you thought.
You have some people, who are strife,
Whose life cuts like a knife.
Shall I think of life as a rot?
It reassures me
Yet it used to
Annoy me so much
Thinking about
My choices being made
Without me as a thought
But for some reason
It now becomes a medicine
I plead for it
. . . so hush, little baby
Baby, don't you cry. . .
Hey, Hey, now, Mr. Harvey!
Lookin' all sharp and sweet, you do, sir!
Yes, Sir!
O o o h. . .
Oh beautiful, starry night;This is how I want to die.Wrapped up in thoughtUnaware (of what’s coming)
I love poetry
Almost the same I love you.
Living life thinking of it
Without you, poetry is
The only I got to express my love.
I vibe your grief,
Telling me how hurt you got.
You mask your hellBecause no one understoodYet you open to one personA stranger who came from the shadowsSomeone who doesn't know human conditionsBut you felt close to them
When we were children, we believed that growing up was the way to freedom.
That maybe if we were just a little bit older, we could destroy our demons.
But somehow we found out the truth.
life and all its colorful catastrophes
i walk head down searching for a penny for my entity
i walk head up searching salvation for my soul
a sudden crash
loud and clashing
people running
delicate torn
fragile palm
then clasped tight
then clasped not
the valley
the rapids
the current
ravaging and fierce
the plain
steady
firm
Shy, cry, bye and why
Look me in my eyes, and you still lie
Tears swelling, questioning how I will get by
Water weight dropping, I've ran myself dry
I'm a wreck, be honest, how do I look?
The one thing I fear the most is the one thing you can never see.
It takes many forms, many speeds.
It can be quick and easy
It can be long and painful
But you never see it.
The days I want to cry and die You make me happy and I don't cry . You make me feel loved the days when i feel I'm not enough . You clear my mind when a storm has hit I wish I belonged to a group or a click .
I am scared to go to sleep.
The demons haunt my dreams.
I always wake up screaming, but that
fuels their torture even more.
I see them everywhere. With their,
hollow eyes,
Gaping mouths,
While the sun rises and sets with its comity,
We continue to make the same mistakes and break amity,
With no other person that ourselves.
Remember to yourself that circumstances and conditions lay upon you,
I traded all my sanity for love.A glance, a test, a terminal mistake;My guilty conscience fits me like a glove.
"You Motherfucker"
She said as she let the darkness within her
That she suppressed and kept hidden for
so long, awaken.
Rendering him powerless
with every word she spoke.
Hey.
Three letters of a word I cannot, say.
Wish you could say them for the first time, today.
With that smile in your eye.
Hi.
Lost in common misconceptions
and perceptions
From society's closed eyes
Searching for direction
In the darkness of deception
Deciphering the lies
With my mind's eye
Twilight, gray snow weeping
Down the livid sky
Rusted pickups, belching steam vents
Bloodshot furtive eyes.
Drunk at dawn
Beside the shallow river
Blackout just ahead
baby girl I see you got the finest ass too bad you ain't got no class your lack of education shows desperation you seek for fame instead of self gratification.
"Try, just try
They shout across the void
But false hope,like a lie
It's my mind with which they toyed
But real are the tears in which i cried
Am I more than a mindless droid?
Not to them
I don’t know what love
is in words
I know I feel it
so well it hurts
I don’t know if you
Are the only one I’ll love
In this particular way
But I know that you
Are living in my mind
"He prayed
She layed,
There awake too tired to sleep
He forgave
She hates
Too hurt,but too scared to leave
Tears cried
Head shakes
I am yours my heart to keep
Can't tell
"The day of death grows closer still
All the while I hold the pill
To make or break this path I've chosen
Will I choose the water or poison
For the path of God is never easy
will They find the body?
will She care?
Finally.
I can't get the smell out of my head
The lights dance, faltering
like they did over the shattered glass
Fate works in mysterious ways
Putting me through pain on most of my days
Mental and physical, it has no preference
For in my mind pain has taken up residence
But still I wonder for what reason this is
I'm sorry for all of my stupidity,
But maybe I shouldn't have moved to the city.
Usally in this world I do not cry,
I just buck up and stare at the sky.
When I see the smaller stars in the sky,
In the foreseeable future
I know ill be able to help my family
I wont go missing like bueller
Ill float like a bumble bee
ready to lend anything
because I know what its like
to have nothing
To the lords
i sing
about life's morbid sting
and the few many doors
that open before me
in which inside
i expect much more
than the things
i receive.
Adulthood snuck up on me, deceived me
Oh, she’s a sly one
She flirted with me for a time, dangling her alluring maturity and ravishing freedom before my eyes
My eyes did see a flower,
The flower did flourish under another's watch.
I lay on my back and watched the skies,
The clouds did form a face of a queen.
She could not be normal if she tried
Her intentions for perfection,
She would not see of her undoings
Her heart, quick to trust, painfully bled
Who knew she would come to be so tied?
I put my best foot on the lawns
But the lawns did resist my wrath
With my index finger, I hatefully pointed
But the words did resist my wrath
I swallowed the pride
And my chest did feel my wrath
Our words are forgotten as our memories return.
They stopped, and time froze around us.
Enclosing us to this very spot, this very moment.
And although there is such a hatred that plagues our world.
What are the odds?
Of being born when you were
Of saying I love you when you did
Of being the person that you are
What are the odds?.. of them calling your name
I am . . .
Reserved,
Reflected,
Becoming the Reserved Reflection of Light,
Circular,
Cunning,
Lightning Cunning through Circular objects,
Backwards,
Bigger,
I am of men and earth.
I am of women and worth.
What I know now is now.
All the what's, whys and hows.
What I knew then is then.
The time before men.
I wish I could have known
I thought it all made sense back then.
I didn't have the idea down yet.
Sure you can say it was way back when,
but it doesn't excuse my regret.
My life had tumbles and falls
and I thought I had it rough.
Depths of pain
Wails hollow
Death’s compassionate touch
My heart breaks
Grief, gloom, heart ache
Depths of pain
Wails ring aloud
This breaking pain
I looked at my watch it was 12am,
a mirror caught my eye and then,
I saw crow's feet perched on each eyes flank,
a long grey beard and my eyes had sank,
I looked so old but felt so young,
I weep not for you
I weep for me
I do not cry for you
You do not see
I am not hurt
That's not the case
And if I were
You can't see it in my face
I cry late at night
Destiny, settled in stars
Adjusted by wonder
Fiddled with by passion
Two meet
Not meant to greet
Secrets kept from Three
So imagine theres a girl, and maybe another girl, and even more maybe, something like a monster inbetween them.
Which one are you?
Why only call on him at midnight?
When your mind feels weak not right
Why not call on him throughout the day?
Like before you become overwhelmed and your skies turn gray
Darkness engulfs,clouded by despair.Surrounding the peacefulness,eroding it from within.Discontent follows,maddened by grief.Unpleasantly distraught,lacking true desire.
Imagine living with a family of disorders,
darkness riding upon corners.
Imagine living with an anorexic sister, autistic brother,
I see a 'Wall'
Were images are reflected.
From the names.
Of those that went.
And met their fate.
They had no choice.
Or deferment.
From their fate.
Reading about Aaliyah on the blog spot
the number 722 on her apartment
I see that combination and mixes all the time
A sudden though hits my mind
Aaliyah's watching over me.
The light flickers.
the cold damp grass bends beneath my weight
The night sky casts a white shadow on my fate
looming like dramatic irony I remain unaware
the stars eye on me i still think that life is fair
Oh sweet intricate splendor, thoughts of decisions made, self reflection, and regret. Waves in my brain, the tide comes in after midnight. In the darkn
The sound of humming wind is blessed with the wings of a bird's grace,
its' soft feathers pulsing through the barriers of the wind in such hace
now peircing through heaven's smoke in which the clouds so gingerly lay.
You get judged every day
People dont know your pain
What you gain people suck away
Selfconfidence starts to drain
It is hard to make it through the day
I cant believe my eyes
The last day before your good Goodbye
I do hope to see you one more time
Dreamt of the time to pass and say Hi
A band of captives, trapped in a cave
deep within the earth
Held prisoners like slaves, chains bind them to a wall,
holding them down in the dirt
No joy of human relations, elations of freedom
When we met
you told me you loved me.
The people were passing
in an unusual rush.
The mood was like when someone falls down;
as if God pressed pause for a second to breathe.
Twisted and tangled upon the floor, was where she laid herself.She wasnt looking at anything specifically, but yet she was staring at the irony of her destiny.
For the misfourtuane
Of the fortunate
Is that they live
Within their shell of a life
And the foutuane
Of the misfourtunate
Is that they live
Like it will be
The last day
Of their life
It's so cold
Everytime I open my eyes this chill hits my spine & in that very moment Im completely frozen
My hearts been numb by the base & I've grown numb to the faces of the pain that I try to run from
There is a sense of relief
That comes with finding the one.
You know the one?
The one that deals with your laughter
And your tears
The one that is screaming at the computer screen
The smell of smoke lingers in the air
Blowing towards the crack longing for freedom
to escape its beholder
I am the smoke looking for a place to go
To grow.
I can fly with the wind and
In the moment, no answers were shown
But looking back, I should’ve known
Deep down something shifted, that wasn’t quite right
The water laps against the boats,
A deep, cerulean blue.
The white sails flap, flip in the wind
As the boats sail through.
Oh, to be aboard
One of the creaking, wondrous vessels;
I hope I forget your eyes
And that I couldn't look way.
I hope I forget your smile
Because it makes me wish you'd stay.
I hope I never call you
When its late and I can't sleep.
Some find themselves
When they curl their toes over the edge of reason
Looking down at all that is sane
You reached for my hand to pull me up
To the very top so I could see
All the mountains and beautiful greenery.
I had never done a thing so dangerous.
As I looked out over the small mountain town,
Whisping through the air,
like beautiful strands of hair,
white as a ghost at a haunting,
floating in the wind never taunting,
a dirty little secret it tries to keep,
but everyone knows it likes to creep,
The Sky, white robed with freckles blue,
Stares back at me from where I stand.
My toes inch forward; any wind that blew,
Would push me over to an uncertain end.
Thank you for trying to save me.
Thank you for trying to make me love myself,
but as you can clearly see,
I am beyond saving.
I have lived my entire life feeling worthless.
Never fail to notice your intuition
Enduring life
When it becomes chaotic
Compelled to make rapid decisions
My mind is gifted
If a stranger is someone
You do not yet know,
And a friend is someone with
Your best interests in mind;
Could not someone be both,
And instead of being a stranger,
Or a friend,
More concrete, cracked beneath our feet.
Moans of souls long gone oscillate
Between the empty buildings.
Emptiness and viruses, all-consuming inside me.
The only eggs left inside me are hardly mine. Damn flies.
The lights so bright, I cannot see
And though visibly impaired by this
I know everyone's eyes are on me
Every move I make, they will not miss
Who am I?
In front of the World, I do not know
Heart pounding, face flushed
a crushing headache bum-rushed
Breath ragged, star-crush
the holy theme of hush hush
For several years I was stuck in a rut
It was time for a change, so I trusted my gut
I was doing the same thing for many years
It was time to step out, time to face my fears
If I ever have a daughter.
I would tell her that she will be okay even if
It seems that the world is ending.
I would tell her not to try and carry it on her shoulders
Or to give someone else a turn.
I wander through my own mind looking for a sign
with the utmost desire to let myself run free
my feelings and emotions flow like I just finished reading The Great Gatsby
I have so much to say,
A double edged sword
one side love
one side hate
living through a twisted fate
one side life
one side death
struggling for one last breath
one side forgives
So many people lost today.
So many take an easy way,
sell their souls and give their love away.
A thousand universes aligned
To being us tonight, tomorrow, and forever
Some call it fated, destined, or something like that
It's actually pure dumb luck
The odds are astronomical
This is the impossible
Its my time to shine
many years have passed
my destiny is calling
reflection in the glass
Curtain call!
I hear the man scream
a bang on the door
Startling me
For all the love I have to give
No one can learn to live with it
I'm restless, weary and fading
Straining to remain the same
Another date, another day
No love shines in this shade
We were almost loverd a long time ago,
Two young minds entwined through intimate play,
thoughts waltzing together in endless flow,
I have liked you since the day we first met
I want to tell you but I don’t know how
Fearing rejection I can’t tell you yet
You never really noticed me til now
You put a smile on my face everyday
Sometimes fate is something you make,Something that you work for,Sometimes fate is given to you and you choose to take it,Something that is a present,Sometimes fate will lead you some place unforseen,
Stars are shining
In the great black sky
Where the universes fate still lies
Our future is uncertain
We can’t predict the beginning or
It's like a parasite
Feeding on all my energy.
I'm consumed, engulfed by your love
While you are merely floating in it.
Why is it that we dont share the same fate?
When darkness takes over,
Our nightmares come to life.
Who's time will end next?
A mere roll of the dice.
Fate is a religion for those who hate chance.
But be it random or precise,
She is...More precious than the jewels that surround her King, the Queen is flawless her love is deeper than the bluest ocean the greenest forest...
To be heard, is the cry of every heart
To be heard, is desired from the very start
From a child's first cry, to final death
We long to put our souls to rest
To find peace in someone who has heard
Here I Stand across the way
Between a gap as wide as the grand canyon
Two worlds separated, and our hands never touch
It was a giant shift from the crust of our Earth
And the flow of tears that shaped the divide
Sweet, musky scentthat rises the stripedstairs into my nostrilsand opens my eyesto see a blurred, blue silkysmooth crashing, clutchfrom the shoving mobbehind me, intoa forgotten memory, whose
The hollow persists in the space you've wrapped aroundBut the inner circle containsEmptiness, loneliness, painLike the drip, drip, dripThe flow from my brainIt never turns off, never goes, never slows
If you change, will you be judged? Is this you're ultimate fate? People don't comprehend what life can hold. It is full of beauty, as well as sincere people. But, it is also full of darkness and people who are dishonest.
My heart is beating faster than normal.
Perhaps it’s the coffee or all this anticipation.
On edge and full of emotion.
An agonizing wait as today is the day.
The day that could change.
Nothing I do can make me forget you, Everyday is your smile on my mind and your touch on my cheek, your eyes on mine as if we look away we'll go blind.
She acts before she thinks
He thinks before he acts
but neither one had ever thought
that they'd be the perfect match
Still like water, in the shade of palms
Beneath the arms, of a desert sun
This soul is calm, with the frequencies
Of the cosmos, flowing through me
Blue sky across rough horizon
Endless are these dry oceans
A sprouting flower still frail and green
Before it bloomed they doubt what they see
Quantified judgments have been made before
Have you ever envisioned Karmaas an object or a thing?Is Karma a force?Is Karma a centrifugal ring?Or perhaps Karma is a person;a woman or a man.Unfortunately, I cannot tell;No one can.
At first I thought the issue was me.
But then I saw my mother.
I thought the issue was her.
But then I saw my aunt.
I thought the issue was her.
But then I saw my grandmother.
All over America, there are towns
And yet no one knows them
Except the citizens themselves
And can you blame them?
(It is their right, after all, to know the town they live in)
Each and every day is like another
Over again, her life is on replay
So much like a broken record player
It can always break her heart to pieces
And bring seas raining from her eyes
Love is everything
in science love is reproduction
in poerty love is tragedy
in movies love is fate
in childhood love is grotesque
in war love is scarce
in time love is stronger
Just a moment of our lives,
Thinking about every second,
Not even caring about the person walking right past us.
It's all about ourselves time and time,
Luck sits watching the world, She along with her mate. Serious he sits by her side, The all-seeing Fate. And below them both, Their four children dance around. Chance, Destiny, Karma, and Fortune Occasionally stop to glance down.
Everyday
Same time
Your front door creaks, did you notice?
Mine does, too.
10:30 AM, you walk out of your apartment-
The one right across the hall from mine-
And I make sure I walk out, too.
As I retire
I perform a similar routine
It involves a person
Sometimes it is dream
He is only a boy
A picture of a broken memory
It's just the spirit of a faded cause
A broken promise - there I'd always be
It will leave when I take the time to pause
I know that it is only a mirage
bring the silence oh Harbinger of Death,the true death,not absence of Life,absence of the heart.lacking in Love does bring us apart.tear at me great Leviathan,crush the dreams and mix the poison
Someday,
We'll Be In The Clouds
And We Can Say We've Made Each Other Proud
By The Fact That We've Come So Far
After Traveling For So Long In The Dark.
We'll Be Happy That We've Finally Reached The Light
If you have love in your life,
Then sir you have achieved what most men cannot.
More than, any sailor dares to conceive in his
Rash and unreasonable mind. But ay
We are just men.
Our ancestry shall not define usWe are as much a piece of the pastAs an integral portion of the futureAnd yet we are not only that
Love is a beautiful mix Of fate and chancetwo bodies along a planemost probably skew linesbut given some grand lucka single wish upon 11:11:11we intersected at a pointforetold among our stars
Call me insane, but I'm trapped.
In the confines of my house this time, not my mind.
Maybe both.
"Because you're a girl", replays like a broken cassette tape.
Just bear it. Just breathe.
Wait.
You’re what I yearn for
From the crown to the core
Lusting for you more and more
Your splendor is all I’m seeing
She is the all seeing and all knowing.
She is relentless and revengeful.
She comes and goes.
She's been sleeping
In other beds
Not listening
To those who mind
She stuck around
In dreams
Not caring
That they would mind
For all of you, welcome, welcome, welcome
To the world of ‘you cannot do anything right’
Where the only noises are the chains that bind you to rules and regulations
It takes pain to know that you're alive,
That your heart is beating.
That your skin is feeling.
That your lungs are breathing.
It takes passion to know that you have the drive,
"The water flows between my fingersmy hair entangles amidst my crooked nails and moist ridges within my skin.a cry of weakness shatters a ripple among the wavesa goodbye smile attends the rest
The Puzzle
Life is so confusing
What to do
And what to say
I feel like I'm abusing
My brain
Open your eyes
Walk down the street,
Look around.
Look down at your feet,
Do you see it?
I only need you
I talk to you,
And the world goes silent.
I listen to you,
And my ears have new meaning.
Hidden Lies
The present is cheap,
The future looks bleak.
An image of solace,
Is all the eyes meet.
In reality, it is a downfall.
The world can be simply defined
Going Our Separate Ways
My eyes begin to water
As I crave your warm embrace
Missing you is like a deadly sin
It breaks my heart
A pained existence
Fear creates wounds
Fear is agony
Fear has become pain
Pain that is as intense as a woman screaming into the night
Because fear is the room she has been trapped in.
Fear of rejection
Been such a long time
Since I’ve been home
I feel like so long I was a mime
Happiness
Many things can bring joy to ones life.
Exploring love,
Family,
Friendships.
Unrequited Love, you see, that's my life story,
There's times I wish I could go back to when you didn't exist to me.
Nothing's worse than knowing the person you want to be with
is a made up myth.
Constant struggle.
Daily beatings, no matter what it is.
Feelings weak, so weak.
I shut down. about break.
Wanting to cry for help.
But only feel alone in a dark room.
people today think they know what respect truly is,
when they don't even respect the opinions of others.
You'll never know what's ahead of you
If you are constantly starring back.
How many people do you know move on with their life,
When they won't uncuff themselves from their past?
If you don't let go of the old,
We were separated by states.
No hair yet upon my chin,
but without being aware,
I belonged to you.
My heart had a path,
and knowing you not,
we were still destined to be.
I, Robert.
exactly how fair does it seem
to be put in this world with hopes and dreams
to use every day gaining possessions
telling lies, truths, and confessions
finding some miraculous things
She lived a lucky life
Always happy, always smiling
Her biggest problems were nothing
She didn't really know what sadness was
But one day, it all crashed down
Her face filled with tears
I know you can do so much
But I continue to question
I live in a world that does not bow
But you are here too
And too often I forget who you really are
My adoration, loving forgiver
Over head, they loom with impending news
To either quell the fires that ravage
Or to restrain life that grew too savage.
In most respects, we must all pay our dues
To revitalize the cycle a new.
ACCEPTANCE©
Glenn Johnson
Today longing burst into the blooming of acceptance.
For how many eons . . . into how many worlds
My skin
cannot find its’ purpose
in newspapers
uncomfortable
it makes you
ashamed
guilt makes you look dirty
little girl
played slavery when she was seven
tar baby
If you learned to walk in the dark.How would you act when the lights come on?If you spent your whole life high.How would you face the day sober?If you spent your whole life lost,Would you really want to be found?
He wrote me a poem once
The boy who leaves in January for LA
He wrote me a song once
The boy I don't want to say goodbye to.
We spent the day exploring a museum once
Miraculous pity isn’t it so?
Gingerly anticipation!
My gloved hands pulsing, to know…to not know…
Tails lack an end of extermination.
Should chance toss elsewhere- then off with her head!
Every one of us
Has a place where we go
Where we dance, we sing, we love, we fly, we see, we know... we do.
And then we wake up.
And we step into our world where we just stay.
You would never believe
where i had landed
Far from the world
but still empty handed
does it change a thing at all
i guess i'm not one to make that call
to fall or stand was my only choice
I got a date with DestinyAt Hollywood Boulevard I studied it like AnatomyAnd I know almost everyone has given up on me butI need redemption no need to mention my past
My heart will always want you
In my world its only you
My mind is mixed and you know it
In my thoughts you are always in it
Youre the reason for it all
And to be with you again Id have to give it all
White walls overcrowd with gold chains explicit language and tattoos
Pant sdrag against concrete
imprinting a woman's son's blood
Cool metal lies against thick hands
attached to a monsterous body
Blue is red
Red is green
My thoughts are mud
Mud is dirt
Save for me
What you have
And I shall save for you
Things I do not even have
Be careful, Be careless
Fate is not a linear force.
It is not an inescapable hallway,
But rather a myriad of doorways
Showing all the possibilities before you.
We stepped through two doors on the same day
When all signs of a salvation are gone, you still pray Every last shard you try to piece back together Rays of ultraviolet blast your face, you fled the party Leaving bare and exposed, a lifeless being Cold and hard was the concrete on which you f
One night I went to a party,
Not too extravagant,
Not too small.
But a substantial gathering,
A group of individuals that care about one another enough,
My friend and I were talking one day and he asked me,
"What do you think about the state of downtown?"
I thought about this question for a second and said...
Our faith is our sail
Intuition the wind
The life we've built for ourselves is the hull beneath our feet
The world may get rough at times
The seas shaky and the winds turbulent
Sand is sifting,
The grains of time, tumbling
Through, down to the dune of
The underworld of times past.
Moments descending upon us,
We take no notice.
Moments falling, behind and below existence,
Because it's funy how the person who makes you happiest
Is also the person capable of hurting you the most, intentional or unbeknownst
And the worst kind of love
Is the kind where you love and they love
I was young when I accepted what I thought to be my fate.
I cried at first, but then my sadness faded, everything faded,
Everything but my hate,
and I continued on that path, as was fated.
I once met love at the front door!
And, when I glaced it's direction
Love, beautifully, smiled back at me.
That was love. My first sight!
I became instantly drawn to love.
lay my cards on your table...tell me my fate
tell me where we stand on that thin line between love and hate
since you control my memory, please just allow me to forget
Confused
With no one to talk to
I'm so confused
How will I vent to hold down the tears
For no one seems to be here
My mind is so dark and weird
With no one to talk to
I'm so confused
This fog gives me a sweet sense of what is to come,
While the sun is hiding, ready to take its course.
I am ready, for my story has just begun.
7...8...9... It's been 9 days since your hand slipped through my finger tips. 9 days since I've last felt the bliss of your warm embrace. 9 days of thinking of time edged in moments that we solemnly spent together.
I once was a child,
ignorant of the Devil’s orchestrations
whereas Overconfidence intimidated Priority.
Delivery of divine desire upon request
though a coveted dream in disguise-
Three people
Two smiles,
Two hands
And one heart left broken.
The smile you created,
All the things you said to me
Are just words now?
I’m broken in emotions,
We don't get to timeour crises of faith,do we? When thebite has gone outof the bourbon itseems as thoughjokes are not funny,as they used to be.
Three years next Tuesday.
That was the day you left me.
I've questioned God for three years.
I've asked why you were taken instead of me.
It may not have been that type of situation.
I am from the southern part of Dayton, Ohio.
I am from my dad and granddad because my dad has anger management
And because my grandparents didn't want children,
And when I was born I was real sensitive on the inside
I ask the Lord to quiet my soul
It has awoken from its restless sleep
It has caught sight of the ones my heart used to love
and it wonders painfully where all the love has gone
I sit here comforting it as it cries
If it is up to me,
I will write;
And I will let it be.
Internal and External locus of control.
Control of my fate.
It is up to me.
As I see out the window
The trees sway in the wind
As the storms is coming
It brings a cold icy breeze
it was fate that brought me to this spot,
looking down the dirt road where my heart was caught by the swirling winds of your love.
the memories play like a movie in slow motion.
reversing time and going back to that day.
We were broken from the start
Ill made molds from our beginning
Bits and pieces of fears and failures
Make our chemical make-up
We will not bow
We are broken, not defeated
Everyone dances;
everyone hums.
We all must move
to the beat of the drums.
We try to fight
our given fate,
but we don't realize
until it's too late.
Fate already expects
Walking quickly on the path of green,
the woman suddenly stops to survey the scene.
She could not know
Like a thief in the night
It came.
Merely a year was requested,
And merely a year was given.
Althought not always bonded,
Bonded they were in blood.
Father and son,
Draw a path
For a destiny.
Take it nice and slow.
Do not worry about the flaws,
For they will clear
With the brightest light,
That will never make it dark.
So enjoy a journey
They say
That you and your mate
Are tied by a knot
On a an invisible thread
That keeps you together
Despite what may separate:
A couple miles,
An entire country,
Two continents,
Desires are a deep thirst
Always there
Water quenches
Dreams are saltwater
Appear to quench
in the end
only worsen
Taking hopes
Twisting them
So let me tell you, it started with this girl,
you already heard alll the shawty stories but yo son let me tell you about this one girl.
Shawty tall like model, didnt know why she aint go on ANTM
A girl to begin my poetry,
a girl to hold my heart,
a girl to talk with me,
and never be apart.
She inspires the words,
she creates the lines,
if it not for her,
I would have never shined.
Love, What Is It?
What Should Be A Simple Question?
But Yet Is Asked By Many
Do You Have To First Lust To Love
If You Ask Me You'll Receive A Shrug
Said Often Only Out Of Curiosity
Fate in a long black dress with a golden noose
Around its neck. Fate with piercing blue eyes
And tainted lips. Fate is human but godly,
With other-worldly inspiration and cosmic consciousness.
Nerline!
Nothing more, nothing less
My name among other things pronounced at his lips' release
A petrified shiver down my spine
We are nothing more than strangers who
I will follow you.
Even when the grass
Turns to sand,
Even if the sand
Lasts for days,
I will turn my head
From the wind
And against the grains
I will follow you.
You make me laugh. You make me smile. You make my life have purpose. I am nothing without you. Before you came into my life I was a mess. I finally had a reason to change who I was. You gave me a reason to start my life over.
Is it my fate to move forward amongst my peers? Is it too lateare my fortunes beyond the seers? Do I step into the heights to gain hope and grandeur? Do I veer back into the night to a silent allure?
After all these years,
my feelings for you have only increased.
All the many tears
and emotions that never ceased.
You were my first.
Yes, I know
When one has all but wish for none
When one has none but wishes all
One’s path, One’s fate, One’s Destiny
A life for a life, denial in humanity
A life denial at humanity for a life
How did you see me?
Was it the color upon me?
There is nothing different about this faceless creature
So now I ask
It all started with just one word, hey.
Hey, let's learn about poetry.
Poetry, the Key to opening Life's Door,
The Key to freeing the unknown within.
Poetry, the Key.
Using the fragments
of decomposing cameras
we
laughed at the pictures
from years gone away and faded
they painted nice images
We stand to fall,
We run to crawl,
We laugh to cry,
and we live to die.
No matter what turn you take,
your actions all lead to fate.
The fate at the end of the road you're on,
Never did I think you'd be a part of the past,
our time together went by a little too fast.
What you've now done for this community,
is what will forever go down in history.
You gave your life to save another,
There was loud noise
Followed by me crying out his name
As the bathroom door
Flew open
I could feel the steam
Coming from out of there
Pressuring against my face
My mind bobbled
You know, you might look at me and think that I've got it all together, this much is true.
But if you dig a little deeper, the truth will come through.
You see, I'm just a young man with a hope and dream, a little talent, too.
You've changed?
You once loved me and called me everyday
Now you rarely say my name
You've changed?
It all started when distance was put between us
Seperated by only a few miles
looking at our target
changes nothing
but makes us dream
changing out actions
to create the better
gets us moving
They don't kow the tears I cry,
They don't know the life I have,
I have wings and I can fly,
Going by my own path.
I seem weak,
But I am strong,
Very sweetly meek,
But not for long.
Tossed out of the ocean
I’m gasping
God take me back
This agony is everlasting g
Deaths cold fingertips
Tantalize and twist
Oh what shadows I carry and bring with me;
We dance all night and sing in perfect harmony,
Oh so joyous and free.
Together we live so happily,
because they're just like me.
In the dark sky
No one hears her cry
There's no one to call
Her tears continue to fall
Her broken heart
Is a work of art
The red glow of the sun beat heavily on the barren sky. Cloud might have blocked it from view but the glow of its aura could be seen faintly in the sky, as heat manifested the air.
Evey kiss is imprinted upon my lips
I can still feel the heat of you
Living on in the memory of a touch
An unbelievable softness
The velvet of you lips
Covering a barley leashed passion
Inhale the scorching summer sun
Inhale the vibrance envelope around you
like the sweet simmering blades of grass
staring vividly at the horizon
I feel the heat wrapping its tentacles around my pale white flesh
The yelling has stopped
His bags are packed
I love him unconditionally
He still left me
He was my fist kiss
Always will be my first love
I loved him with all my heart
He was still taken away from me
Will I ever be able to escape the clutches of my mind
And travel the world as a happy soul
One so content with life and eternally blessed
If this happens I could surrender my love and finish my existence with him
A decade is a long time; it could not be made up for the past time.
Depression is walking through my mind, and it makes me go blind.
My crying heart is not healed; it still suffers from its open sealed.
Who are you? Are we the samejust split between two spirits–lonely and tortured souls?You make me feel safe insideand that notion makes me shudder.You say you can’t be there for me,
As I lay here crying
As I lay here sick as can be
I feel the tears running along my cheeks
They're so warm, they burn
My cheeks are burning
And I feel tortured
I feel like every tear drop that burns
I write to create a realistic image in your subconscious mind
To create a way to express my thoughts, leaving mouth from my entering mind
My poetry is more than just the similes and rhymes
I can finally smile once again but only in the rain.
I run around and be myself but only in the rain.
I laugh and I jump in joy but only in the rain.
I forget about the pain you've caused me but only in the rain.
Eyes, deep as the Nile.
Lips, so angrily tempting.
Mind, an expansion of knowledge,
That pulls me closer than
Earth's gravitational pull.
He's the character of man
who thinks himself kind
and generous
until it's all that he is—
a gentle touch,
a loving caress.
Prick and squeeze,
penetrate and hug.
A single finger.
I wonder how you came to be
for your stone cold heart doesn’t seem to beat.
There’s a chunk of ice in you chest,
frozen so cold
you will never rest.
The Love I gave you
could never undo
I came out of the womb a writer.
I am certain.
However, I didn't accept that I was a writer until age nineteen.
That year I made a choice--we all have to make one, or more, eventually.
Remember the days when we were in love
The times we spent counting stars up above
The kisses we shared
The love we made
Is it really all gone
should I have stayed
The world is just an empty realm without you on my mind. It spins with no succession, it spins out of time. Without you, my heart shall bleed and never mend again. Without you, my world will crash more than it's ever had.
I don't know where I'm going
and I don't know where to start.
I've been through a lot
with strain on my heart.
In the eye of the beholder, love is a powerful thing. It sways you left and right. Creates a language unknown. A language that is both verbal and physical.
like the way an entire scarf can be
unrecognizable
if you pull the right strings
like the way a teapot
shatters
when you drop it
like the way a melody is
distorted
when you add an extra sharp
my little brother is becoming that guy
that I dated in high school
the one that loved me until the next
pretty girl came along
the boy that called me beautiful
in the same breath he used to
Well you never know who you will meet and when. Lets face it you never know what meeting someone may bring. Let me tell you this girl has learned you never know what will happen when you meet someone.
Wide brown eyes meet green, both pairs filled with tears.
Faintly beats my heart, broken, full of pain.
I try, but cannot see your hidden fears.
You grasp my hand, I listen to the rain.
That day will come someday
Not sure of the time or date.
Memories come back of that Sunday,
And my beating heart slows down its rate.
My tongue will not spill No. I want to give her the world. No! she deserve the world. From my rib that is why He created Girl. She is so dangerous, avoid the eyes. Her voice is like an Angel, so check your pulse for evidence that you are alive.
Apart from me, I am a part of you
I am with you, but you were never with me
WE, yes we were never one, you were more than half of me
But I wasn't nearly that close to you
Fear was my pending fate for you
There was a time when the world was beautiful.
When my biggest fear was growing up, and getting older, and getting wrinkles.
That was the time without worry. Where I didn’t have to look over my shoulder, and wonder. Or even care.
With lips and fingers intertwined,
An angels song, I did hear
But for a moment, then 'twas gone
Leaving clear, sweet echoes in my ear
If one wish to me was giv'n
Through darkness black as coal,
In his eyes, I see no fear.
I sense happiness,
But feel the tears.
I hear laughter and care free days
And watch as they shut to sleep filled with haze.
I’m done with lying and crying and feeling this way
Of laying in the dark, knowing that for my sins I will pay
Of pretending for you, that I really want this
When really it is our friendship that I miss
I'm sick of this conformity;
it's no longer the place for me.
I'm sick of pretending to be something I'm not,
just so you can feel complete.
I'm not happy or sad,
about where I now stand.
To first climb the ladder,
You must step the stairs.
One at a time, beware of bears.
Don't be interfere. It's just a sign.
The anger inside clawing it's mind.
Mind if I asked?
Even when you feel weak, to me you are strong
To lay next to anyone else and breathe in their air
Would feel asphyxiatingly wrong
I often sit and wonder,
What I’m going to do with my life,
No matter how hard I try,
It always ends in strife.
What do you love?
What do you hate?
All I want to do,
Is leave it up to fate.
If I never said I love you, could it be taken away?
Could the words I want you mean the same?
If I never taken them away.
I love how you smile and love the way you laugh
You have been hurt too many times before, and I don't want you to cry anymore
You have eyes that are to precious to have tears fall from them
My mind is made up, I will make you the happiest that you've ever been before
It was the most beautiful, bitter fruit.
Though each bite was laced with poison,
I could not help but eat
for the hope that
I also discover the sweetness.
Your presence was fascinating.
I have to choose
Between yours or mine
The happiness
That only one can have
So I hope you’ll see it,
All
I’ve done for you.
For I’ll trudge through it,
So you can flourish.
I have to choose
Between yours or mine
The happiness
That only one can have
So I hope you’ll see it,
All

I fell in love one day
The day I broke my heart
By her beauty, my eyes drew up
But my hope fell from the start
through all the struggle ,and all the pain ,i will keep on dancing through the rain. keep my smile with hidden tears.I will learn to conquer all my fears.
You said you wouldn’t forget me,
You said you’d always have time for me.
But lately all I hear
Is you making excuses.
You don’t want to remember me,
You don’t want to see me.
A blazon radiates from above
Upon the barren, bleak cave
Where reminiscent of lost love
Reflects within mystic waves.
In a quiet little town
I owned a small shop
Inside sat a table
With a vase perched on top
A heart-shaped vase
Shades of red and pink so bright
It sat in the window
Each day and each night
Your beauty is what brightens up my day,
but truly its your smile that takes my breath away.
I never met someone like you thats so full of joy.
Here I stand hoping you will notice this one boy.
Some people say love doesnt exist
Others say it is only found between a man and woman
if thats true then whats this im feeling
for a woman
Butterflies in result to that sweet sound
i call ur voice
Why not me.
Look at them, they seem so happy
Hand in Hand, drowning in the endless pools of each other's eye
Oceans of euphoria, smiles real big
like a child watching fireworks
It is pain? Or is it joy?
The story of many, yet unique to us all.
The workloads of life, giving us too much to haul,
And the joyous of times in good news' call.
We must understand that the long suffering is a profit,
Me duele tanto el Corazon
Por tanto amar a otra sin que conociera
Que en mi mente
Solo vive ella y la memoria de su cantar.
I look up to the sky and sun
To give me inspiration
They tell me that they’re down to none
Due to past generations
I look for it in every place,
Sound, sight, smell, and sensation;
Darkness behind my eyelids
Earth experiences the same darkness
As the sun’s light is captured by the moon
My curtains of flesh rise with the sun
As it illuminates my surroundings
An angel from above,
I thought you to be.
We were yearning for love,
Never thought you would leave.
He took her hand and lowered himself to his knees, but the words couldn’t come out. He told himself, “All the practice was for nothing? No way!”
A sweltering sea
overtook my
nimble and anxious
body.
The salt had
burned my
pressed eyes;
the
waters were
deeper and heavier
than the
hidden
When you wake, my fingers won't brush your face again
Caressing your masculine jaw line
Caressing your full lips that I love to kiss
Caressing your perfect shape head that I adore overwhelmingly
I yearn for a forever love
A man that aint intimidated by me
put me in my place when i aint acting right cause i do be bugging out sometimes
There are three who share this trait
That can even beat fate
They hid with ugliness
But once they know
Their true colors as time pass
Their beauty will surpass
Everyone
A broken family they appear
Love is sweet
Love is bitter
Love means peace
Love means struggle.
Day by day I think of you
Night by bight I wish to see you.
My feelings are too overwhelming to bare
My life is too precious now
I gave you all the love I had
You were the only girl with the power to make me feel so sad.
I want to hear you sing to me again
But then
All the memories rush back to me
And the pain attached to them.
We are so much more than what you see in the videos on TV
We are so much more than the rocks on our chain
Or the chronic smoke that clouds our brain
We are so much more than the sagging of our pants
Life is a game of chance like rolling the dice Life is not all fun and games there are things you have to sacrifice You can’t dance your way through situations you have to pay a price I have many things on my plate; as a result I am full of life W
I wanna be alright
I’ll learn how to swim
but the waters just so deep
I’m sinking in
no life guards around
nobody to be found
when I jumped in the river
no one could hear the sounds
Life is like climbing a tree,
It is very hard.
There are many paths you see,
always have to keep your guard.
Every time I’m with you,
I feel it building up.
You know I’d never hurt you,
So why not open up?
Upon each wingéd criticism float
hollow sadness extending infinite within,
devouring seeming core of self eroded,
still suspended in earthly bondage.
Feeling a depth of despair inescapable,
an entangled mindweb is my dwelling
and my tongue tastes of bitter longing.
If I had a choice in the course of my life
and if I wasn't affected by emotions like
love and fear, I might actually be
somewhere and left with some rationality,
but I am merely a pawn moved
There was a time I thought there’d be
A little thing called you and me
And now I try and you don’t care
But I can still feel something there
You haunt my mind every day
You plague my dreams but you won’t stay
Life is precious as we all should know. We are just seeds in the dirt waiting to grow. As time goes by and the good and bad influences from our surroundings shine down on us, making us to sprout into our various ways, we stand.
Roses are red
Sunshine is Yellow
Look over there
And you will see my fellow
He is wonderfully smart
A genius to boot
He's got my heart
Without having a lot of loot
I believe love is more than just a word
more than just a verb
something you just say.
love is different, in my mind.
It was early December when I first met him.
He was a little timid at first,
He hid under the seat until the lights went dim.
He was as horrible as a curse.
I loved him.
I am a strange stirring in the night,
the way you feel when you’ve just awoken from a dream,
the tension of your misplaced affection.
If a poem is all I can give you,
then a poem is all you will get.
If love is all I can supply you with,
Then love is all you will recieve.
I cannot give you any more,
but I surely cannot give you any less
The two strangers my autumn leaves shade.
The wind that whistles through my branches shakes
The leaves. The sir is filled with crimson parade.
Their eyes, they meet. My leaves, they break their stares.
I sleep without rest,
Eat without fill,
Drink with no satisfaction,
I look at the world I have but do not see it as my own,
My love,
My body,
My home,
For none are mine,
For many years i did not know
if i would ever find true love
but then one day i saw a girl with a beautiful glow
long flowing blonde hair, as graceful as a dove
beautiful brown eyes, looking into mine
Once there was a boy with a heart so big
A heart so willing to give, give and give
A heart so forgiving and filled with joy
A common trait in such a little boy
You walk through the door. The blood from every where in my body rushes to my cheeks making me blush a bright crimson. My feet go numb, and my legs suddenly forget how to move. My arms are like dolls arms just hanging by my sides.
Oh! Trials! Tribulations
And terror in losing
Love in a race against
Anyone who's ever
Loved you; I loved
You first, as much
As I do, at least.
I am a sensitive loving person.
I wonder where my passion for life will take me.
I hear my destiny calling.
I see pain turning into forgiveness.
I want the truth to be seen.
I am a sensitive loving person.
Why i gotta mess up
Why do i trust
Why do i care
Why am i here
Why don't i have nobody
Cause i aint worth ish, that's why
That girl which i love
Isn't like the other girls
that girl make me do dumb stuff
that girl
This Poem is my everything. If you can, just listen and let me know what you think!
(poems go here)
Ode to happiness and the high it gives you.
Suppressing the stress you could no longer bare.
Cleaning you up until you’re “as good as new”.
It’s like inhaling a breath of the sweet spring air.
Its you that I've been waiting for
The one who would sweep me back to shore
Why do I fall so easily
When the words you used were so cheesy
my heart beats fast
You were my first and I was hoping my last
nowhere to go,
My decisions depend on your emotion,
For you i'd give so much devotion.
Your hair so soft and smooth,
like the quiet calm waves of the ocean.
Your eyes so brown and bountiful,
when I watch the patchwork of stars
ten thousand galaxies away
when I watch you go - orbit away
from me as I stay
stagnant we are, feelings fall away like dust
plummet to the earth
The first time I laid eyes on you
Met you for the first time
I Knew.
It was something about the way you smiled
But I hesitated, unsure
It couldn’t be, my mind is playing tricks.
We’ll be friends.
I thought I knew the road and where it leads;
I came upon the fork and felt so sure,
Until the trees in shade began to tease;
My confidence was shook, I closed the door.
My heart is closed and locked, I am afraid;
And there's a reason you shouldn't burn bridges,
Cuz sometimes they just can't be rebuilt,
and it's a guilt trip every time you try to mend that relationship.
When I read,
their tearful words appear to echo in my mind.
When I listen softly,
Their desperation clings to my soul.
When I ponder,
Their fate may rest with my words.
Why is dark ink worth more than my red blood?
A blood so pure and full of hopeful life.
The darkness stabs as a dull ballpoint knife,
Until I can no longer hear the thud
Of the slowly dying heart from within.
Why is dark ink worth more than my red blood?
A blood so pure and full of hopeful life.
The darkness stabs as a dull ballpoint knife,
Until I can no longer hear the thud
Of the slowly dying heart from within.
Everything about college is a process.
It can be difficult at times.
And even more difficult at other times.
The choices and decisions are endless.
The thought alone of it can make your head explode.
She walked and enjoyed the moments,
He ran and made moments,
So when they their eyes meet it was as if fate clicked,
Their heart beat as one,
Each world stopped to become one.
My heart beats at twice the pace
Than the beat my feet take down the staircase
And the walk to those exit doors seems like a chase
A long awaited race to my fate
I pray for you so hard that my hand's pretend to be my eyes and cry.
I have dry palms for eyes, those who dream of paradise.
Who I am
It’s hard to describe
But something lies in between both eyes
A vision to be greater
More than me
Bigger than the bigger picture
More than free
Who I am
I may never decide
You don’t know what I’m talking about
You don’t know what I want
You don’t have the ability to read my mind
To him who finds freedom,
Beauty, and grace in Dance: she holds him
In a warm embrace. She removes
All confusion and doubt and fear
From his mind and casts it from him.
She lightens his darker moods;
