Poetry, any and all come and share it with everyone...

Whoa! Don't remember actually writing this one!!


These feelings for you seem to be growing stronger
day by day

The thoughts of you are growing fonder
as the close of each night slips away

My heart yearns for you, my body and soul
seem to be calling for your sweet self

Though it seems right to be with the one who adores me
my heart seems to want something else

I don't know what to do, to hurt someone
seems so cruel

But denying my feelings that are changing day by day
can only hurt the two of you.

Whew, took a shot at a Terza Rima.

Love, the feeling, it's all so very devine
The rules the beliefs make it quite fair
Giving her the choices, it seems fine

She walks with such a beauty, such a lovely air
With all her grace and elegance, she's the Lady in Red
FRom the sun's work she has light streaks through her golden hair

Her cooking is superb, better than butter and bread
The fragrances from her essence are so very sweet
Through foolishness & ignorance, to her many men have been led

From towns surrounding, from afar it's her they long to meet
Though, a head from each, if not more, ends up on a vine
Her sense of killing, her insanity is a secret so discreet

I was going through the thread reading all the poetry and thought I’d add a couple of my own.


Countless flow in a steady gait
For the things that were
And yet to be
For the songs of the masses
Many watched through windows of pain
Yet more stood around its sides in glee
The strong, the proud, the mighty all in splendor
Even the unworthy where blessed in it s fair
For in this, is priced very high
But it is missed under the blue blue sky


poem two:

I believe this in reality is hell .......
The fire is existence cruel complete being
Realities beauty can be sized in illusion

And our flesh is temptations best catch
The mist of the miss leadings surrounds and penetrates
We can not escape its hate through life

Or fight its bite, in its concrete deviant base
We stand defiant
Against our providential place that's been allotted to us

Not excepting grace we laugh at her face
Fully enjoying our selfish standards
We have no eye... For those who cry!

YES!!! I believe in reality we Fry
It's only through death our we born
Torn from realities crime, for all and the rest of time

But now under realities horn... We burn
Our live are but to scorn
Like clowns, we all keep putting paint on our face
To hide realities disgrace.

Can't you see?
I'm torn
Since I was three
Between this and that
You and her
Tryin' to take me back
...and
This whole time a war has been waging
When the bond was broken
Emotions started raging
While I was on the sidelines hoping
...but
You can't see what's inside of me
You can't tell me how I feel
All you see is me trying to flee
All of this seems so surreal
...and
I'm left now 15 years after
empty and alone
feeling like a disaster
My thoughts go unkown
...for eternity
To be free, I dream
Is it real
Is this destiny, so it seems
How I feel
...this way
I've been kicked aside
15 years of emptyness
All the pain locked inside
I never expected so much less
...from you
I am a slave
To my own emotion
Expected to behave
Runnin' deeper than the ocean
...afraid
Thinking of Death
I turn away
Alcohol on your breath
Will it be ok
no...

Not quite like anything that's gone before...I wrote this a few years ago for someone who rather inspired me...


Starfire

Daughter of mystery, Iskander's heir,
Sylph from forgotten realms of old,
Envy of heaven, brighter than starfire,
Effortless catcher of my dreams.

Flawless your beauty, jealousy rages
Among the gods you put to shame.
Divinity pales before your light,
Nirvana recedes in your presence.

The world falls silent at your arrival,
Legends spring up at your passing.
Your image is written at the world's heart,
And carved in the heart of my soul.

You are a thunderbolt in the deep night,
Blazing Sun-bright in my mind's eye.
The thought of you blinds me with radiance,
And sends shadows fleeting away.

Reality shivers before your gaze,
Time bends and flows around your thought.
You're too perfect for me to imagine;
Am I dreaming, or can you be real?
