I dare you to feel the hurt that is mine
You catch me crying some of the time
For my true love I grieve
Move away from me, "Leave."
Just remember for whom, I write this rhyme.
All i can ask of you is to hold on
I know at times its as if im approached wrong
As if my woes song is all i dance to
As if im so empty when i romance you
The windows of my soul are blurred
With terrential rain, thinking otherwise
A mental strain speaking words aside
From sorrow is deafening, regretting when
You felt you were with a stranger
A man unsure of himself, a danger
To whatever peace and joy was intended
To whatever hope of the future has mended
I suffer slowly on a daily basis, i pray i make it
TWO POEMS
ONE
Adam n his apple
It was a depiction of a male’s apple
hanging within which seeds were hidden
they enjoyed and the serpent still springs
all love it when it does sting
in the bedroom darkness
that’s when only we get light
a flash of awakening
and
emerge with wanton love
a desire for more
that’s what, was the lesson
from the garden
ask no god
use yours......
Those blooming eyes
the clean halls throw shadow voices
echoes to the deep where the
sub service works
lip works to the inane and
subtle hazings
the songs the backdrop soothing
and foreboding
of the great seasonal cast
ahead....
running the new grounds
where the greater ideals
swim
a thrill and danger
about
from the cabin
..
If i listened
to what they said
I would be filled
with voices in my head
I should be
emotionally crippled
addicted to pills
as I lead the life
of a walking
lab rat
i won’t conform
into the guidelines
of society
Made a world
Where insanity
is let loose
I’ll tell you what I think
This time, unrestricted
in permanent ink
Lost in my own mind
Yeah, doc scribble that down
Wait, I’m different
Ring the alarm
Increase the dosage
He wasn't a big man by nature
but he had a big heart inside.
He's a teacher, a thinker
who pushed you to greater heights.
He used to say humans are never meant to be
as still as stagnant water
if you are not moving forward,
you're not embracing life.
We had our differences,
we had our arguments
but when I was down with fever,
he would be there to offer me a hug
When life becomes rather silly,
very dangerously so,
sit and watch TV,
grow poor,
watch the planet die,
and die with it.
Protest,
vote,
commit acts of nihilist terrorism,
just do something,
please.
Poetic justice
No hands only intentions poetic justice this
this is like a poetry
being written by a pen
without holding it
and as its ink flows
god knows
she will have a plentiful lot
a great shot
poetry of yours can never ever be forgot
and why not
There was a lot of people in jail
Many said they would never do well
They broke out one day
Just to make hay
Now the farmer thinks they are swell
La La Sparrow
It starts with a low grade fever
diarrhea and vomiting like a river
aches and chills like the polar
brought on by Ebola
never seen nothing as this, ever.
its three am in the twilight
this iPad is my nightlight
my music is deep
and I can't fall asleep
after a long day and a wicked fight.
you should've stayed gone
broking our bonds
pretending I did nothing for you
now that God has left you
I've been forced to go it alone.
