Lingering Feelings
Your smell still on the blanket sheets,
A mark of the nights we shared.
Your voice still echoing in my head,
Like an unforgettable tune.
Lingering Feelings
Your smell still on the blanket sheets,

Everyday with you seems to get tougher
Our problems go from one to another
I remember when we used to be lovers
Till you painted the picture with your true colors
Every night at a pub,I see her, the girl with the blond hairand blue eyes, a beauty to behold.Her gaze draws me in,and I can’t help but steal glances.If you ask me what are the eyesThey were the first eyes I ever sawI can see the heavens in them,a
Love, when I waved at you and said Goodbye,I felt a part of me just wanted to cry,But I knew that I had to let you go,Even though it hurt me more than you know. Our time together was brief but sweet,And in my heart, those memories I’ll keep,Of lau
I remember it like was yesterday When I walked down the third isle in the the shopping mall Your outfit caught my eye and I couldn’t walk no more hence my Hey my name is poetic nice to meet you I remember the first glance the smile and the way
Your beauty brings joy to my heart.
Your shape turns the world.
Your strength is undying.
Scarlet ribbon is your lips.
Your touches are magical and hot!
Love me now ‘O African woman!
Your beauty brings joy to my heart.
Your shape turns the world.
Your strength is undying.
Scarlet ribbon is your lips.
Your touches are magical and hot!
Love me now ‘O African woman!
Ready for what ain't been before, I ain't for war, fly high, I aim for more, let the rain poor, headed to the main floor, See God in my sight, Christ in my light, cried so many nights, you can find me in the city with many lights, gave my life to
Flower in my hand, power in my hand, waiting for the spaceship, don't know when I’m going to land, taken from the motherland, things they don't understand, leaving with nothing but what I came with, I plead the fifth, that's my language, light the
When you see you breathing, it’s key to believing, they proceed with deceiving, we succeed with achieving, this is real I ain’t dreaming, how can we heal when you scheming, in the motherland we keep it real cause our heart is gleaming, prayer hand
I can see the love in your eyes, I can see the love when you cry, all I need is you in my life, people looking for a reason, we don’t believe you this season, what does it mean if you don’t have love, behind the scenes I saw the dove, only praises
How, after all this time,
I still want you,
Years have gone by,
Nothing is new.
We met in the capital,
On a tinder date,
You looked stunning,
Immediately want to copulate.
Dear Deadname,
You are a gorgeous young woman.
You will do many great things.
You have a beautiful smile,
And a gorgeous face.
I know he told you that he love you more than anything that you mean the world to him, your more than family
I know he told you that your the one for him and you will be the one to wear his ring
your my baby
your my love
your the one im meant to be with
your my soulmate
your my world
my uninverse
your my life
I wouldn't be alive to ink the words
The words that may wrench your heart
And you wouldn't be reading with this solace
If I haven't poured these words this soft
When two meet,
They feel meant to be
It makes you feel sweet,
Like your Teavana Tea.
You’ll feel warm inside
As if your toasting a mello
And at some point it became just a word
Love
So many times I was told I love you
And they were lies
A star and the moon
away from the earth
and the warmth of the noon.
Fondof world
and dance with galaxy's curles.
Together they rise
and set.
They heal
and disappear.
Have you ever noticed that our favorite things are never shiny or perfect?
They are cracked and nicked and peeling from days we hold fondly.
"She was my little girl
God, how I had loved her
She was not made for me;
even though you made her.
Out of fine flesh and Earth she was made,
then woven and threaded along head.
She was ripe but not rough,
So you the nice guy
The cool guy
The shy guy
The good guy
I should just runaway
Make my getaway
Somewhere faraway
Let me spill happiness on the
road leading to your soul
like spilled incense from a censer.
My Savior, “Prince Charming” was a golden-haired princess with rose colored cheeks and an immense aura capable of suppressing centuries of unattainable love.
Sitting next to a willow I recalled,
The carefree look that brawled,
Heavenly wind passing through my rolls,
Making me feel as happy as a calm at high tide;
Mothers love is sacrifice,
Mothers love is sharing,
Mothers love is giving her all even if it means her dying,
Mothers love is forgetting her needs just to make you comfortable,
The day we met, neither of us knew,
That the day we met would mean forever, something born new.
Our hearts were broken and torn.
But what is life without a bump or a thorn?
I adore your beam,you reflected your beam,with fetching me through your eyes.
Splendid is your creation,as like the ravishing Universe,carries everything equally.
As a baby, you held me with tender love and care
The smiles and warmth you gave me was above all else and more than fair
I thank you for the days of laughter
Kindness is all around us
In the smile of a stranger
In the tinkle of a baby's laughter
In the chirp of a nightingale
dear college administrators, i am not your average students. I don’t get amazing, star high grades, i am sometimes not a good friend, i may only get a 3.0 gpa but i am not one thing. I am not a failure.
When the dark night passes
a bright morning will come
the bright light will shine
just because of him,
what could i ask for? if not thank him, above.
The reason i have not broken down
I am from Spices
From paintings and pictures
I am from the blissful hospitality
(welcoming, adaptable,
Greedy.
Fake.
Slutty.
Wrong.
Inappropriate.
I crave happiness,
Yet I am denied.
But I am not defined by others,
I am defined by me.
I am not made for your approval.
Those curly Ramparts over her ears.
Hiding the heart of her soul....
Making her lovers die in dispair
I brag about my power
I rebel for no reason
I create dramas
I show my false self
One Day I was diagnosed with Charcot Marie tooth,
Though it takes away my strength and balance,
It caused great pain and anguish since it was early in my youth,
Rested on you like a pillow as I slept my days away
An angel amongst demons when I see your face
Charisma unmatched by no other when I take your embrace
How could I ever match your kind hearted ways
You ready
I'm ready
You ready
I'm ready
Ok
I'm Mr.Freeze because I'm in an icebox
I freeze up on stage I'll die of shock
I’m black and comely for the sun has kissed me for the moon made love to me, for the blackness of space has seduced me, for the stars there sensational spark bust me like a grapefruit my exposure seeds to my root.
Who says I need to be perfect?
Who writes this in a diary?
This is my story, I'm the captin
Who tells me If im fit to lingo
Who told you you werent beautiful
Who said beauty is in everything else
A heart is left unopened
Locked away from lover's contempt
With feelings unordered
Yet felt with full extent.
One must view things from the inside
We all came into this world unknowing
with the thirst of desire and discovery, but I was always known for throwing
my passion of love for recovery.
the feeling of that connection with another
Sparks like a dancing star forever
The abyss of this bloom; sharing your minds
It's like a creative mixture that shines
I wanted to grow up
But never in this way
I wanted to grow up
Only a bright future all the way
But growing up is hard
It's not like the shows
A Girl's Best Friend
Dogs like this, dogs like that
Anyhow I love my pet
Very dark in complexion
“Let me go” a man weeps
“Let me stay” a girl screams
“Don’t take my land away” the chief speaks looking dead at me….
A country of heat and a history of savagery
Their lips don’t speak
I have come to a place of Crossing the Rubicon
Into a world of great disorder
Lying on steeply sloping ground
To reach into conclusion
Yearning in excess for dwelling with melancholy
“If I were to show you my true colors would you love me?
Would you find me as admirable as before?
I feel myself trying to fit into your mold
The mold to please you, to make you proud
you're like rum on fire; but i can't begin to even imagine seeing you and not having my heart jump like flames, or touching you and feeling like kindling during a fire, or seeing you walking away and feeling like a dying flame in the fireplace tha
FROM A LOVER
What I desire nor mortal man may taste
The heavenly beauty to touch thine lovely face
Not on this earth is there love so pure
if you forgot me
it's okay
you'll remember me soon
just not today
and the things you said
you may have meant
but not anymore
too much time we spent
on petty things
to be weak
is to have no feeling
its a son
with no father
a mother
with no one to give love to
a boy
with no toys
Loyalty,Love,Trust.
Those are the main keys for a relationship.
Any type of relatioship.
You dont know when it starts or how it starts.
But the feeling you get out of it lets you know if there's something.
You are strong.
Fearless.
Captivating.
When you wake up,
Hell is stirred by your
early morning yawns,
She has eyes like a Tiger
Long thick hair flowing down her back
Her body was perfect like a hourglass
Her touch is so soft
Her Love is pure
There's a virus that is spreading.
It's more contagious than the flu.
Deadlier than any plague,
And it infects me and you.
That virus is called hate,
And it's spreading all around.
The clock strikes 12 all of the envious rats start spreading morbid lies that leaves this small town. Walking with their heads down
And heavy hearts when will this wistful disturbance will end
Love is Love is Love
Love comes in all shapes and sizes.
Love between a man and a man,
a woman and a woman,
a man and a woman.
But what is love?
Does a person love another person
I believe in people who break their own hearts just to mend someone else’s.
People who extinguish their own spark just to ignite someone else’s.
The servants of the world,
Happened to me,
Being so young, you see,
Eyes wide open,
Everything was exciting, opportunity.
Happened when on holiday, crazy youth club, free
Finding a gold watch in some communal showers,crazy.
If Someone Were To Ask Me
If I Think About You Everyday
I Would Say No.
Because A Day Is Not Enough
Time To Express
How Much I Love You.
Stay still they say,Do not blink they say,Can a human see without blinking?Can a human survive without moving ?
We are runing out of time they say
Let someone watch over me,
Blessed
God opened my eyes this morning rather it is sunny or clouds,
I am here to see another day and I am so grateful proud.
Lovely Lady, why do you sob still?
Is it because he has broken your will?
Ripped the bones from your body,
and made a cage out of them to hang from his chain;
I am a sound
Created to be heard
I want to be heard and I want to hear so that I can learn to use my sound the right way
I am a unique and I am a blessing
I can build and I can destroy
All those things combined make me want to hold on to you forever
For worse or for better
You should already know that you are my treasure
And when we together nothing can ever measure
Your arms are my shelter
Sculpture:
You are sculpted so perfectly from start to finish you're my perfect image
Photography:
Like a photograph of a rose growing out of concrete
O sweet beaut, so fair and intriguing,
At the corner I’m waiting for you;
I’m scratching my head, and inquiring,
What on earth it were best I should do.
Put my love to a test
and see how nutritious it tastes.
Use a little sample
For there is no much to waste
..........
The sweetness of my love
Can't turn blue litmus paper red
I love my country.
Let me just state that now,
Proud. Loudly and clear.
My country is the melting pot.
A collage of every race, in every possible beautiful combination,
He's got a laugh
and it's pretty
like im listening to the voice of a city
he's got a smile
and it's bold
like the sun has covered me whole
he's got a charm
and it gleams
There's a break--a bright day near
Remain open, don't shut your eyes
It seems far; the light tries to run
One day we'll catch
This journey is far from over\
My emotions are in Marvin's Room, love.
Soft like a dove and I hope you take care
I'm surely no Drake, but I think that's fair
Like the Bible, you're a gift from above
Hate sleeping alone but like to shove
Connection with space
The blue roses never grow on Earth
Yet the words are for the aliens, not the flowers
This poetry supports the bridge for two worlds
Expression runs through the galaxy
Bruh, I know your up but it’s getting late
I got to make peace with you
Hommie I have bitten off more then I could chew
I’m sweating from the new day’s sun
now I know your in for a bit of fun
The ocean is deceiving
Shorline thin and simple.
As you swim deeper
The greater it grows.
Grasping and releasing,
It shows off its power
The infinite waves crash,
forward and back
Obey The Cross That Jesus Suffered Although It Will Cost All You Claim As Yours !
Each of us must learn to take a part in the dance be part of Christ's vine by his design
love the grey in a lazy day bridge the gap in my dreams through twisted schemes
filter through the notion of belonging mark the longing get a following
we are in this til the end my faithful friend with whom I can depend
to the oppressed:
In a world, so dark and cold where all hope is lost
good and evil right and wrong are throw away like paper
however plenty there is not
After all your tears
And all of your fears,
You are strong
You can always right your wrongs.
Baby this is your chance
To show who you are
You are that star
And your dreams will take you far.
This is to fight back,
not violently but gradually
in the streets to meet the justice
they deserve,
with fists tight and high,
as high as skyscrapers
and as low as the streets;
Roses are red and they can be purple and blue but why will they change color if i dont have you
Hey whose that fella over there?
When the light hits him just right.
God I swear I can´t breathe
He knows this
But proceeds to do nothing with the facts
Makes me mad
Makes me sad
rolling in my pit not giving a shit quick to become undone out having a bit of fun
excuse me but this jam has to rhyme as I bust up the tempo from behind
back in the city looking at girls so very pretty fast cars with local bars
It'd make sense to sell books filled with psalms our love has inspired.
Profit from the nonstop poems venting the glories I admired,
But it's not worth a dime , not even a dollar,
Dear Hunter,
The name of the person who had used the computer before me,
Had been Hunter McDonald.
There I was in the computer lab,
Sitting in front of my assigned computer,
In the darkest of nights, I felt alone. I felt only sadness and fear. I felt the pain of the hand that once claimed to love me caress me in places I did not want to be caressed.
Two in love don't need music to dance,
jokes to laugh, or wine for romance.
They don't need stars to say goodnight,
or for either to be right.
They don't need an event to come together;
Flamingo feathers fall into the rainwater below,
Shading the Andean lagoons with passion.
From that warm feeling in your chest
to the "text me when you get home safe"
to the person who brings out your best
Fom the "I'm so proud of you"
to all the butterflies in your belly
Everyone deserves to have a healthy relationship wether it's with a significant other or a friend, it's something no-one can pretend. Even through hardships and struggles that relationship should never end.
Clinging to fragments of memories,
I search for love here and there,
Walking the shores of eternal hope,
But I sink in the sea of despair
Again I wake in this wretched place
Where the devil glares with grimaced face
Reading my heart, stripping it bare
Savoring the scent of the secrets there
I'm slipping and sliding, the ice too thin
He arrived at her place of residence
She knocked from the inside
And he opened the door, revealing a magnificent world
Our eyes mirrored each other, yet the others seemed more beautiful in our own.
His stare comforted me and paralyzed me.
A look so passionate and innocent it made my heart tremble.
You were there when I was sad,
You were there when I was lost,
You were there when I was mad,
Because I love you.
You understood No,
You always saw what I saw,
You never made me go,
Writing is a magical touch you get from deep down inside your heart.
It extends to all the known factors of your being.
Essentially everyone is gifted with one talent or another just need to tap into it.
“Because I Love You”
I met you walking home one day
You smiled at me and walked me to my door
I thought to myself, why me?
You asked me nervously
Over the mountain
Over the hill
Traveling this wide land
Year after year
And oh, don’t you know
I love you so, forever and ever
And oh, don’t you know
I love you so, forever and ever
we met at a dance
next wild romance
yet at a glance
there was a glimmer in her eyes
filled with a surprise
as the many years would pass
having every reason to grasp
we both went our seperate ways
I meet with you in liminal space.
They say: ten seconds of understood silence can mean more than ten years of talking.
I do not know who they is, but they bleed wisdom
I love you is a phrase any person can say
a lot of people hear it everyday
It has so much meaning
it can't compare to any phrase in any way
it shows that you care about someone
I was only 16 when I met you. I was a naiive little girl.
I wasn't looking for you, but you found me.
When you did, you made me a better me.
You healed me, both pysically and mentally.
You fed me parts of your soul.
Because I love you,
I can trust you.
I can tell you my darkest secrets and know they're safe.
I can trust you to do what you believe is best for both of us.
Jesus Is The Answer when your down to the lowest pit Nobody around and they don't give a shit all of life seems fragile being tossed as salad when you run into a brick wall Still there is hope never falter Jesus Christ died almost 2, 000 years ago
Where did it come from
Can it be a mystery
Sometimes its clueless
Nobody really understands it all
Nature is not readable
Where did it come from
To the serious seeker
To the late night watcher of a double feature
Each of us is responsible to a holy God
We can either receive or reject
I bet your sorry that we met
Once upon a time she was locked in a tower,
a tower drowning in hope.
A tower with one fight and lots of power.
A tower only used to mope.
With beautiful blonde hair,
with a bright, white smile,
Mirror mirror on the wall
What will be the death of us all?
She sat there making judgment of who is most fair
Where dreams come true, she lived a nightmare
In the topic of magazines.
I sat on the cover, close to the reflection of her eyes.
Relaxed in the greeting of open arms.
Do you ever have that moment where you just need to think? It’s not about anything specific, but you just need to let the weird stream of consciousness you have flow out of you. I do. That’s what’s happening right now. Just letting my mind flow.
America's Oxygen
We boast about being brave and being free
But maybe that ain't as true as it means to be
We built this country on God and trust
But sadly our ways of life begin to rust
It was spring when we had a talk
Asked if I know you, excited me
With no thoughts, at loss of words said
I hate you with no harm
It was the time when the hot weather caught us
We left our hearts
to live in our heads.
It was supposed to get easier
but compassion is dead.
Driven by money
and heavy with pain;
The blood on the ground
runs in each of our veins.
i don't know what too call this
his eyes, you see there almost
like tree roots that grasp my mind
i don't know how you do it,
but my eyes go blind for other guys

A cosmic collision came charging through
the perimeter in space
lines, form & energy
The solace of the solar system
Ambiance of a king/
Aura of a God/
Mind of a hustler/
Thoughts of a poet/
When you're in the eyes of a writer, you're unsafe/
The stars in the sky guide me when the moon is non existing/
Land of the free
a great hope many can see
some it's college or the American dream
but if you get realistic you change the scene
college is expensive and you leave with debt
a payment each month is set
only one I think of
some one distinctive to love
every joy of anyone
all added up to only one
three times my heart beats with this intense emotion
why must i only have it once with one
L. She loves her.
G. He loves him.
B. She loves all.
T. He's not a she anymore
Q. She is fluid.
+. He/she/unsure are people
People are loved
Love has no gender
Or ethnicity.
My heart goes out to those
Who have loved and who have lost
To the ones who did nothing
And yet still paid the cost
The cost for what, their
Let the Birds Fly, Let the birds fly, let the birds fly
from danger and grief
sword freely as sky
not boxed in cage like monster
protected the feathers of the world
Sometimes I see you
You're still beautiful as ever
All the words you say
You say,
"I love you"
With those words
I always believe
I start to think about our future
The possibilities we may have
I am Mexican-American, I am one of you
I was born and raised here, like many of you too
My people are hard workers, and we stick together
When things get rough, we help one another
Hey brother, listen up.......
today, tomorrow and everyday
u treat me like I'm a pile of hay
Today I will speak
and you will listen
i am tired of hearing all your insults
VAMPIRES LOVE
When your scared, I'll be there and hold you tight. Under the moon in a starry night.If i was a vampire would you let me bite.So we would be together for eternity
I LOVE YOU
I love you now
I'll love you then.
From the start
And till the end.
Your more to me
Then my girlfriend.
I love the rainbow
In your hair.
Your sympathy shows
In this garden aren't we all beautiful
Why should it matter if I am a tulip
Or a rose, a dandelion, sunflower
Why should landscapers be able to choose what flower to prune
"Forgive, but do not forget," is a saying as old as time.
Ordinary as it may be, it is a powerful message; one that has been forgotten over the years by so many.
Love is the rock on which you stand,
It never lets go of your hand.
Love survives through every storm,
Love never fails; it will hold on.
Love is the key that unlocks all hearts,
need you because it takes the two of us,
To move smoky mountains and conquer forbidden fountains, remember…
I need you because it takes the both of us,
Allah means God,
I know that because I have a friend
She's muslim, with darker skin, wears a hijab
But we can still joke around, laugh and play, I thought we could do this every time,
But not today...
The feeling of warmth
comfort
solidarity
The first feeling of an infant
with it's new mother
Every person's
Love, how vastly divine you are!
The light of your presence
Creates a happy heart within me
How could we ever fret
When we have you in our lives?
Even the most intense thought of destruction and hate
I stand here
My eyes burning
My throat like sandpaper
Under the sun
Under the sky
Under the influence of my mind
I stand here
Thoughts wander and weave
Under the sky
Imperfection is all a person really needs to be able to understand the foundation of
Where they're going and where they need to be.
I need love
I need to love and be loved
I need a driving force
In this cold and eternal world
I need love
I need love
Can’t turn back to fire or smoke, I and I will as catalyst,
Ashes grey we red, doesn’t make a difference,
Our cemented hearts cry n’ laugh, ups and downs ashes shall spread,
I live in a country, Where it's said by many, To be a peaceful island,And I can't deny that.
Sweet songs,
sifting.
Hold on,
hope’s in you.
Dear child,
keep your lips widely speaking.
Honey,
please smile.
i am sick.
Sick of the narcissism that strangles this world.
but this disease has infiltrated me, so who am i to talk?
Giving thanks not only uplifts ourselves
but to those who are to come.
It brings such joy and happiness to all the
innocent faces of small children.
Whenever I begin to fret or
Stress and I need to feel better
There's no better way
To send sadness away
Than to write a stranger a love letter.
I cover my best stationery
When people ask, how I've been raised
I'm not ashamed to answer.
Because I am not phased,
by those, 'I don't like her's.
I was not always strong.
