WOW

Wow
Its now
That Im Over you
Found the field
Where the 4 Leaf Clover grew

The wind must have suddenly changed
Direction
Blew away all of the affection

Saved my heart from going ashtray
Champaign bubbles fill the day

I see the sun
Without the rain
I feel the fun
And not the pain

Cos Wow
Its Now
That Im over you

And Anyway
Ive better things to do

Inspired by Tinkabell's poem:

A poem performed to snapping fingers

Took me a while to shake it
Now I believe I will make it
Gotta shed regret like a bad hex
NEXT!

Perplexed perplexed
*looks around*
An theres no seks
But Oh Yeah.......Hey!
Its Still a Beautiful Day........!!!

What dost thou spy
With thine Neptune eyes
When thou gaze upon the blades
In the glory of the morn?

Druid Diamonds?
Or mere dewdrops?



I wrote this for a Pisces man that knew several years ago. His response was:


I spy the brilliance of Druid Diamonds
When I gaze upon thine eyes.

.

Ooooooo, Science Goddess, I'm melting!

Ooooooo, Science Goddess, I'm melting!


*blush* Yes, so did I.

You know, I had completely forgotten about this but I was 33 and he was 42. And at 33 I really did look like I was 27 or so, and he was one of those guys who had gone completely grey many years earlier. I'm a small-ish person, and he was about 6'4". Plus, he spent a lot of time outdoors, so he looked a older than 42. I think that people thought there was a bigger AG than there was, and just now I remembered that he had said something to me once about being uncomfortable with the appearance of an even larger age-gap then there actually was.

However, don't let me veer this thread off-course. It was just something that I popped into my head.

Kisses that Graze…

Ageless whispers,
finest wine;
dances in shadows,
heart’s beating in time.

A moment apart,
A fire ablaze;
Touches feather light,
Kisses that Graze.

Hearts beating faster,
quickening, roaring;
Souls taking flight,
endlessly soaring.

A new beginning,
no end in sight;
love overwhelming,
embracing ever tight.

A moment apart,
past hurts all a haze;
healed in this touch,
by Kisses that Graze.

They could think it’s the best
that they’ve ever found
but It’s Almost The End Of The World
& there could be puppys
all petals around
But It’s Almost The End Of The World
So she wakes him
in the dark of the night
Though he doesn’t mind
cos it seems alright
But she just wants to say
she’ll be going away
When Its Almost The End Of The World…..

Well though I dont write much I thaught I would find some that I have. Mind you this was after the biggest break up after I had wich is why its kinda graphic minded in a sence.



<center>when will it stop, when will it end,
time will fold on end, time and time agin,
when will the sorrow flee from deep with in me,
time will fold on end, time and time agin,


this is when i bring the razor to my arm,
the blood freed with my emotions set free,
this is when the blood sheeds the hate inside of me,
the blood deep down inside of me,

how will i die, will it be from those wounds freshly bleeding,
please let it not be a dream, nor this be my reality,
its time to pleed with my soul to set me free,
now i fly to the end of eternity with no more pain withheld inside of me,


when will it stop, when will it end,
time will fold on end, time and time agin,
when will the pain flee from deep with in me,
time will fold on end, time and time agin,


this is my life, this is my reality,
the hatred held inside my mind, in my head,
the anger ready to exsplode through my skin,
the demonic feelings i cherish inside my hart,

this is my death, this is my dream,
when i can make the stance aginst the world iside out,
how i will have no more thaughts of the sadness thribing through my body,
my heart will be set free from these painfull feelings that cherish to dwell inside of me,


when will it stop, when will it end,
time will fold on end, time and time agin,
this will end of life known with me,
time will fold on end, time and time agin,</center>

<center>when is it my turn to fly, with no tears stinging my eyes.
they took my heart and ran away, only to give it back with heart aking pain.
they took my feelings and crushed them in vain,
they took my kindness and it was just to make me strain.
when is it my turn to fly, with no tears stinging my eyes.

when is it my turn to hide, as the tears collect in a puddle of dismay.
why does it still hurt.
why does it still linger in my heart.
why does it still flood my thoughts.
when is it my turn to hide, as the tears collect in a puddle of dismay.

when is it my turn to die, as my tears run dry.
my pain increase down inside
my sorrow has left nothing but distress.
my heart is broken beyond repair to many pieces gone a spare.
when is it my turn to die, as my tears run dry </center>

Well though I dont write much I thaught I would find some that I have. Mind you this was after the biggest break up after I had wich is why its kinda graphic minded in a sence.

OUTERSPACEMAN

I saw a man
From outerspace
He took my hand
With a smile on his face

He made me Try & Understand
he lived in a place
In a faraway Land

A Golden City
With buildings high
Nine beautiful moons
& a rainbow sky
A golden lake
& a silver sea
Where their lives
Are how they want them to be

I asked him how? I could
Find this place
But he then disappeared
Without a trace
& only his memory
He left behind
& the dream of a place
That we just have to Find…..

Doorways


In the doorways
where some can’t go
There were secrets
that you’d ever never know
Some open the doors
and let them in
Cos that’s just how they’ve always been

In the secrets that hide
and the doorways within
How many
Who knows
Oh, where to begin

In the doorways
where some never go
There are secrets
you’d ever never know
And in these secrets
are secrets more
Still over way and beyond that door
Some so secret
can words not know
Some ever secret
Some never can go

Well Done, Tink... ;) :)

Your whispers fill my lungs
breathing life to infanite butterflys,
To be able to feel your cheek cares mine,
Your sent will fill my nose like an aphrodisiac,
Your heart the metronome to mine
Mine waiting for the next beat,
Seeing the sun in your eyes
will bring a tear to mine,
Waiting to hold you in my arms when we meet

Beautiful! Keep writing!

Worlds Evolve



Oh Hear the Meadows
Blowing in the Breeze
Then Hear the sweeping of the Trees

Passing above
The Clouds so Soft
(oh where is that stash, is it in the loft??)

Oh Hear the Birds
As they Sing so Sweet
As Worlds
Evolve beneath my feet

A Rainbow Bright
Glazes my eyes

How I feel
At one
As the World
Magnifys


********************************

Sometimes I just want to be alone
Just live the simplest life of personal victories
Like Jeff Clark who surfed Maverick’s
Alone for years

I guess I have a solitary soul
I rejoice easily
Cry easier still
Converse with the homeless man
And the prince

I am loved
I am hated
And I walk through it all
Still as a child

Time fought against us giving us only the briefest whisper together,
A whisper that caressed my heart and seared me to any other.
A manipulative opponent clicking away while we lost ourselves to the moment.
Such a wicked foe to trick us so cruelly, using tactics without mercy.

Embraces fated to fade with the wind; empty now, cold without.
It still brushes against my cheek when I close my eyes and count.
Minutes, hours, days, weeks and years. It never stops when you are near.
It soars above and beyond, out of reach even while the moment, the whisper stands still.

Solidified in my heart, imprinted on my mind; a scar, a brand marking your property.
Mine. Yours. You will always be mine and I will always be yours if only in my heart.
If only for three days in June when your heart belonged to me and my heart to you.
I’m a casualty of time’s campaign. It marched wrecking havoc, causing bittersweet pain.

I lay broken yet content knowing I gave love, gave as much as time and you would allow.
Time, that menace that ripped you from my bosom. Distance that keeps me from you.
Life that dictates what we should be and what we cannot be. A society that would frown.
A family that would not understand. A coin of which there are too few.

A city in a foreign land that welcomed me and stripped me bare of doubts.
A man that enveloped my soul, touched my face, made me sigh when he gave me wings.
Wrapped within his limbs I never felt safer, but then he released me to the wind.
With words of encouragement he gave me wings to soar, wings to fly, wings to leave.

No longer fearful of climbing to great heights or the view from high above,
Knowing I can be free only heightened my desire to seek a haven and delighted refuge.
A gilded cage of brilliance, bright and shining, warm and welcoming. How can I choose?
Weightless and gliding without or weightless and soaring within.

Cursing distance, cursing time, my mind seeks resolve; a solution.
Then I laugh at the absurdity of it all, the impossibility of resolution.
Fantasies sweet and blushing, harsh against reality’s obstacles.
Glaring cruelly at my dreams, mocking my innocence and naivety.

A whisper in time, a whisper that freed and caged me with the same breath.
Steamy breath against my neck, heated eyes, flaming hands against my skin.
Searing my flesh, my body still burns, responding, anticipating it’s scald.
Time, distance and reality keeps me from the fire. Cold without. Smoldering within.

Some people dream of heaven
Myself, I'll wait and see
But I can't imagine a better place to be
Than here.

I really enjoyed reading everyone's poetry... I write a lot, but mostly when I am in an emotional high or low. I wrote this one after a break up, of course...anyone else ever feel like this????

The words flow still strong
Oozing out down and around me
Filling my ears with their insistent useless noise
Words said whispered shouted shown
To every conceivable weakness and vulnerability
Did I believe the Iloveyou’s and the I’llbethere’s
I’llneverleaveyourside’s that once made my heart sing
Words that hit the floor
Running before the last syllable was detected
Leaving me naked
Lying here with only words that mean
Nothing

Not The One

Im not the one
This you should know
& its before I have to go
I really have to make you see
Im not the one
It isn’t me

Im not the one
You got it wrong
& I can say
It wont be long
Before you take a look & see
Im not the one
It isn’t me

You’ve searched the world
Then search again
You must have missed the one
My friend

You have mistaken her for me
Cos Im not the one
Its just
Not me

For so long
Im not the one
You got it wrong
Im not the one
Cant you see
Cant you see
Im not the one
It isn’t me......

~

Walking in it’s you
But not alone
I glance and run away
Like the ashamed hussy
That I am not
Yet I could not help
But for a moment
To wish it was me
Standing beside you
Again
And the smile
Was for me alone
Instead it is hers
As it should be
I keep my place
And savor what was

I had started this poem quite some time ago, keeping it as a draft since I thought I might want to make some changes, but can't seem to come up with words to make it better, therefore am just including it now.

Love Hurts

All that glitters is not gold,
and what you see is not always what you get
be leery of new relationships
We all need food, shelter and love.
I need to hear your breath in my ear,
your heart beating next to mine
and your arms wrapped around me
holding me tight.
Never be afraid to say you need someone
Love should not hurt so much

We create what we believe,
so believe we will find each other
and will have this everlasting love,
And though we may speak of many things,
of fools and kings, the greatest thing,
you will ever learn,
is just to love each other,
and be loved in return, unconditionally.

I've learned that love hurts,
especially when it's not reciprocated.
You can't force someone to do what they don't want
just to make you happy.
I've also learned to be more patient,
open-minded & communicative, if I can
Love also hurts when you lose someone
People change, people die
It shouldn’t be that way
I have lost many in my life time
I don’t want to lose you too
I love you with all my heart
You make my heart throb.

I need to be open-minded
But also need to know your expectations
Of where you think our relationship if headed
We can live one day at a time, I know
But I would like to know more
Do you love me unconditionally?
As much I love you would be divine
I want to call you all mine!
Please say yes for whatever it’s worth
I love you, even if love hurts.

i love you
and it was beautiful
and you are beautiful
and i felt beautiful with you

but you will never see me again

i don't want to hate you
i would rather hate myself
and i don't want to hold you back
or hurt you
or cause problems for you
you have so much else to live for
than me
so much more of your life ahead of you
than me

so think of me
as someone
who used you
and threw you away

you're strong
you can survive that
and someday
when someone who's feasble comes along
you'll appreciate her stability
more than you desired my fertility

yes i am a coward
i fear your finding a reason
to be rid of me
or even seeking them
even if you dismiss them

i would just rather not see that
i am not strong enough
i know my limits

so i fade
to fuel your hopes
and your desires
not to kill them
with reality

though unwilling to lengthen
the time of this tear
i am confident enough
i know that you will
keep the memory
of me
there aren't many
like me

and i'd rather bear
an eternity of your hatred
than the moment
of your rejection

i love you
goodbye

I wrote this a few years back (in a time of obvious darkness), but find that while I am not saddened by it any longer, it fits me to a 'T'

My eyes may not shine nearly as bright
My step is not quite so light
My smile is not so wide and cheery
At times I seam almost dreary
I know I’m not as comely and young
Flattery doesn’t just slip off my tongue.
I have my faults, of this I know
Often my feelings, I won’t show.
But take some time and try to see
Maybe get to know the inner me
The me I hide from almost all
The me that’s frightened of the fall.
To fall in love is not a crime.
But, for me, it takes some time.
My heart has scars you cannot tell
From wars it’s faught and lost and fell.
I may act as if I’m wild and free
But that all hides the real me.
I have a softer tender side
Of love and grace and quiet self pride.
A side that yearns to dance and sing,
To feel the sun in the early spring.
A side that aches to whirl and twirl,
But deeper still there is a girl.
Of ten or twelve whose heart is pure,
She’s small and fragile, scared and unsure.
She wants to love she wants to try,
But she’s frightened, so she runs to hide.
She’s scared of rejection and betrayal
She’s frightened that she will always fail.
She’ll never be quite good enough,
So she just won’t try-she’s not that tough.
She’ll sit alone and wish and pray,
That someday someone will stop to say
You’re oh so pretty and intelligent too,
I’d like to know the real you.
Then she’ll dance and sing through the night,
In and out of the moonbeam’s light.
She’ll spin and wind, her heart it sings
Because once again, she spreads her wings.
She’s free to love and be loved too
Suddenly, she feels life anew.
But until that day, she’ll stay inside
A place that’s safe, where she can hide.
And silently scream this reverie-
“Here I am! Pick Me! Pick Me!”

What a beautiful poem!! I love it. :)

Thanx much...that one is very dear to me (for hopefully obvious reasons).

Some stuff I wrote for my sweetie.





~Le Ciel~ (The Sky)
As I stare at the stars
Your face comes to mind
Everything for a moment
Seems to stand still in time

The heavens above me
The ground below
None of it exists
Not even that calm breezy blow

As I think of your eyes
Staring deeply into mine
Our hearts become entangled
Forever Connected, through all the throes of time



"Perfect"
In my arms
You belong
You were here all along
Hearing your name completes me

The smile on my face
As we embrace
Fitting perfectly in place...

As I sing you a song
I hear your heart sing along
Your voice and your touch
Completely melt me

The smile on my face
As we embrace
Fitting perfectly in place...

My heart feels no pain
Thinking your name
Everything that you are
Is perfect for me

V, very special
A, amazing
N, nice
E, entertaining
S, sweet
S, sexy
A, absolutely perfect for me

I love you <3 Forever and a day my dearest.



~Forever and a Day~
The wind at our back,
Keeps pushing us along,
All during life,
We sing our own song

You are the one,
And the only for me,
Forever and a day,
We dance with glee

Your heart and mine,
Are entwined for all time,
My promise to you,
I will never leave your side

I am all yours,
You are all mine,
I entrust my heart to you,
For all of time.

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Sometimes I wish upon a star,
That we wouldn't be so very far,
The reds turn to blues,
So many beautiful hues,
Everything I am fades,
My heart starts ache,
My body begins to shake,
Yet forever and a day I will wait,
Please close your eyes,
And imagine I'm by your side,
Think of me,
My beautiful wedding bride....

The days and nights the same
One melding into the other
What was once a well-fed flame
Doubts do seek to smother

God gave us hearts with which to love
And minds to conjure doubt
And the age-old query to up above
Is which one will win out

A fire cannot be started
And expected to burn alone
Like a soul left brokenhearted
It slowly turns cold as stone

Love is also burning
And must be fed to grow
For if the heart is yearning
The soul’s the first to know

Doubt is the water to love’s flame
And threatens the heart’s fire
No care for who may be to blame
Just snuffing out desire

Love cannot just burn alone
Stoking is a must
Two hearts must beat as one
With complete and total trust

With that trust comes the knowing
That our love can withstand time
And the heart fires continue glowing
As two souls become entwined

Peachy, that is a beautiful poem. I love it. You should enter it into one of those poetry contests, like Poetry.com. :D

Thank you, BrownEye :) No, no contests . . . I just write for me. But I'll share with y'all 'cause I like ya :D

Here's another one:

How can you believe in love?
When you find the one,
The only one . . .
Your heart is full,
Your spirits soar . . .
No one has ever
Made you feel this way.
And so you let yourself
Believe it can be.

How can you believe in love?
You can’t see it,
Touch it . . . hear it.
And just when you
Think you find it,
Know you feel it . . .
Are sure there is
Such a glorious thing,
It breaks your heart.

How can you believe in love?
With your heart in pieces,
Your face streaked with tears.
And emptiness grasps
At your soul.
Knowing you felt it
And thought he did too.
Then finding an illusion
Where you thought was truth.

How can you believe in love?
When the cruel truth
Of love comes to light,
When the one you love
Does not love you back . . .
And you know deep down,
With every fiber of your being
That true love may never
Pass your way again.

How can you believe in love?
When the head tells you
It’s only a fleeting thing.
The head thinks love
Is only for dreamers.
But the heart knows
What the heart wants.
And the heart knows
The love was real.

The heart believes in love.

Song of a Middle-Aged Widow to Her Young Turkish Lover regarding Carpe Diem

When you first desired me,
I was so very much afraid.
Today I have learned better.
I have learned to cherish you.

Yesterday I thought my heart was dead,
but you showed me life again.
Today I dance lightly in the sunshine
and can take pleasure in the rain.
I will cherish that.

For the wisp of time we shared,
you eased my all-too-consuming pain.
You gave me hope of future joys.
I will cherish that.

When I believed I would never feel again,
your lips on mine made me dizzy.
When I could barely stagger through the day,
your mouth on my breast sent shivers to my toes.
I will cherish that.

Today I sigh to touch your unshaven cheek,
to kiss your so-so smooth skin.
So different from my soft and aging wrinkles,
yet you stroke my hair and whisper gently
in a language I don't yet understand.
I will cherish that.

One night, after the wildness had passed,
I heard you breathing next to me.
Our chests rose and fell together,
two heartbeats joined into one,
a restful moment in our secret time.
I will cherish that.

Today, you are so young, so bright,
with so much to be and have --
dreams of a wife and family,
children to raise and love,
yet today you want me.
I will cherish that.

Today, I vow to make you happy,
to teach you all I know.
I will, however jealously, take delight
as you grow firm and strong.
Hand in hand we will walk the world.
And I will cherish that.

Tomorrow, I will watch quietly as you
slowly turn away from me.
Tomorrow, my tears will mark your leaving.
But I will carry you with me forever.
I will always cherish you.

Faerie Love

It was the time of the Puck Fair
the young man had just left County Clare
He'd traveled alone on the road all the day
for today would be a change in him to his dismay
The journey was long but he finally arrived
and the Fair lit up all were very alive

He walked around the grounds just to see what he could see
and most of the maidens were encircled round a tree
he asked one of the lads why were they there
he said so they could find a man to make them a pair

He turned around to hear the music play
It was the best Irish music he had heard all the day
His feet seemed to dance all on their own
and he felt soon he wouldn't be dancing alone

He took a small break and went into the woods
and sat on a rock with a tree shading as a hood
when he laid down out of the corner of his eye
a Faerie was staring at him about five inches high

He slowly rolled over to touch her hand
she said "I'll reach for you if I can."
He couldn't believe his eyes what he saw
she was so beautiful he was in awe
He asked her if she'd go home with him
she said she just couldn't leave her hawthorne tree home on a whim
he promised to love and take care of her all of his life
she said she never wanted to be a burden and cause him strife

He picked her up and held her very lightly
her wings began to flutter and shine so brightly
she wanted to be his from that moment on
but only in a faerie's world could this be done

He knew the world would never accept them as one
so he put her back in her tree , said goodbye, for man had won
She cried as she watched him go
and he cried as he walked away slow
for a brief moment they had a love so true
but love like theirs is only found out of the blue

Pamela Scott Fraizer

Sheila



Kevin loved her for her smiles
it made him happy each day
he'd look at her picture and
ache to be near her
loving her all night long
he'd fly to wherever she was
just to be near her
never asking for more
than she could give

Sean made do his promise
to love only her forever
and he always did in his heart
no matter what the body did
he'd call her daily to find out
what she was doing
and if she missed him
he'd speak Gaelic to her
knowing his words were music
to her ears
he never asked her to leave them all
because he always wanted to be near her

Niall walked the beach with her
arm in arm
his long black hair
blowing in the ocean breeze
He loved her peace
that she gave him
He would be relaxed with her like none other
He wanted to be with her by the sea
But knew this was her place of refuge
He would drop whatever he was doing
just to visit
and be near her

Breandan played music in pubs
and loved to have her watch him play
She'd laugh and sometimes cry
when she would hear him play to her
He wished they were
dancing to the music
holding each other tightly
He was glad she came to hear him play
the music brought them closer together
He only wanted to be near her

Shane was a lawyer in the city by day
and a surfer on weekends
He loved to watch her ride
a wave beside him in Donegal
or sit in the sand and wait for a wave to
bring him in to her
She was adventure to him, excitement
her body illuminated colours all around her
He felt her and wanted to be
loving all of that energy
He wanted her to move to Dublin
to be close to him
so he could give her
all the luxuries of life
and to be near her and love her

Micheal was 26 years young and full of life
He loved her soft braids that swept across her back
and her lips with love on them
He was a poet
and she was his Muse
With her he was everything he wanted to be
He could not be without their times together
He needed to be near her

John with his aquamarine eyes was dazzled by her
because of her love of horses
He would watch her take her mare over the jumps with ease
He wanted to love her all of his life
and make her his wife
but he knew her freedom was what he loved most about her
so he'd make sure
he'd always be near her
that was all he could esxpect

They all loved every aspect of her
each wanting a part of her
for eternity
but they would have to be
satisfied with her desires
or lose her
and never be near her again

My voice is my country
my voice is my religion
my voice is kindness
My voice is not me

My voice is my leader
so also it is my pain
My voice has no cement on its bank
-Sometimes causing the water from the shallow ends of the river
-to overun the Harare villages
But always I stood far away crying
that is me

My cries could be heard from afar
water coming from different angles could be seen
-underneath the door
Harare villagers worried
but there I lay in the room with my mistress
crying of joy.

My voice is my confusion
blinding me from my friends
My voice is my mistake

My actions are me
my friends are me
and my friends are not kind



Just a Poem!:D

"Love like this"

I never felt a love
Like this before
It's a love like no other
Something I have always hoped for

A love with friendship
Humour and heart
A bond so strong
It would never part

A love that makes you smile
From ear to ear
A love that is joyful
Without any fear

A love that is beautiful
From the inside out
A love with no tears,
Pain, or doubt

A love with soul
So tender and true
A love that I have found
Only in you

Doorways


In the doorways
where some can’t go
There were secrets
that you’d ever never know
Some open the doors
and let them in
Cos that’s just how they’ve always been

In the secrets that hide
and the doorways within
How many
Who knows
Oh, where to begin

In the doorways
where some never go
There are secrets
you’d ever never know
And in these secrets
are secrets more
Still over way and beyond that door
Some so secret
can words not know
Some ever secret
Some never can go

Tinkabell,

Great poem!!

I remember her soothing voice and her inquisitive look as if it was yesterday and,
In the chaos of my thoughts her beautiful words subtly emerge,
They guide me in the dim half-light of uncertain and yet fateful days.

Autumn nights jealously keep the clamor of her mischievous laughter,
Restless they whisper her beauty and the dancing of her long hair,
Merciless they disturb my dreams of a fateful wish turned into woman.

Yet dreams belong to others and they get close and apart from me,
Relentless and incessantly they fill up my shelter garden and together we play,
Rapidly they abandon the game to dilute themselves and vanish like rivers in the sea.

She exhibits the most beautiful citrine twins sometimes melancholic and,
A whole eternity wouldn't be enough to describe her intoxicating soul,
Like nighttime to the moon my addicted soul looks for her with desperation.

Tasteless hours from me you hide behind this chess play and,
Wanders my mind thinking and guessing your next move and,
You design a game play where I might just be the spectator.

Unspeakable feelings your beauty, your glance and your voice invade me in a torrent,
Stubborn heart deaf and blind wanders behind your quick steps that,
Insane and in sick passion looks inch-by-inch for the wick of your love.

FW

You’re always in my heart and on my mind,
Together we are one, intertwined.
You’re my sunshine on a cloudy day,
You’re my blue sky when outside it is gray.

You’re my best friend in every way,
I feel confident that we will be okay.
Together forever and ever,
It will last through even the toughest weather.

Love, determination, understanding, communication, honesty and trust,
With all these things and then some, our love will explode and combust.
Our love will keep our flame burning brightly,
And our arms will always hold each other tightly.

With you by my side I will never, ever be alone,
Together we will make a life, and our hearts will always have a home.
You’re the one that makes my heart beat,
You’re the one that makes my life complete.

You’re the light that always guides me through the dark,
You’re the trees that give me oxygen in the park.
You’re the one that makes everything clear,
You’re the one for me, my dear.

I just wanted to say I really liked your heartfelt poem.........Don't stop writing!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :bgrin2:

"Love like this"

II never felt a love
Like this before
It's a love like no other
Something I have always hoped for

A love with friendship
Humour and heart
A bond so strong
It would never part

A love that makes you smile
From ear to ear
A love that is joyful
Without any fear

A love that is beautiful
From the inside out
A love with no tears,
Pain, or doubt

A love with soul
So tender and true
A love that I have found
Only in you

(Untitled)

Night falls quickly as a I wander
through the attic of my mind,
Where dreams cast murky shadows
of a far off distant kind

Alone this night I slumber
in the cradle of my bed
With thoughts of you to guide me
through this journey in my head

A howling wind envelopes me
in love’s haunting warm embrace
And brings to me, your spirit
and your breath across my face

Lips that meet, if not for sleep
and my heart that now alights
On a voyage on a sea of tears,
descends into the night.

Desperate to behold you
and reap the feeling of
Our souls intertwined forever
In a deep abyss of love.

:tongue2:

Exellent, it took me off this world for a while :)

for the kind words Pashtun. I wrote this for my ex, who is over in Iraq. :cheers:

I had this under another thread but realized it probably should have been posted here. Nothing great or lovey dovey. It's actually about a sub/dom relationship. :blush:

Yellow Sun

Yellow rays dancing in an erotic dream,
Highlighting the back of a lover’s embrace.
Dusty lines tracing throughout the room,
Blinding the identities of each other’s face.

Smells of ash from last night’s candle,
Mixes with the scents of sex and sweat.
Warmth from the yellow morning sun,
Diminishes all that they fear and regret.

Guilty pleasures that will never be spoken,
Seen only in the heat of each other’s eyes.
The room now forever changed and new,
Leaves embers burning between each other’s thighs.

They speak in a whisper as though they’re watched,
And secretly entwine their legs and hands.
Instruments of pain deliver the sweet ecstasy,
That only each of them hungers and understands.

She moans out to him in a crying pain,
That he administers to her body with love.
Raised boundaries are quickly wiped away,
And limits they find they are now void of.

This heated wave of passion they will ride,
As long as their two entwined bodies can.
Exhaustion will break the cycle of pain,
Neither knowing where or how it all began.

The yellow sun now changes to orange,
As it sets low against the room’s wall.
With their bodies locked in each other’s arms,
They drift off now as night begins to fall.

Another day has passed here on Earth,
A cold place they have learned to shun.
They avoid the world’s unobtainable standards,
And live their lives within the Yellow Sun.

False Red

Junie kissed me, like a fool
A million orbits around her eyes
Wasn't that great, I, told ya last night
What if I lied?

I guess I'm sorry, if I wasn't listening
That woman's scheming to stay in my head
It must be working, cause she's been my whole day
If I blush when you mention her name, it must be
False red

Ellen giggled, uncontrollably
On and on she went, quite embarrassing
In the chatter and the laughter, it was
So quiet inside
Holding me as if I was the
Only man alive

If I write her name sometimes, please don't misunderstand
I can't always control the words from my hand
And if I start to blush when I, hear that laugh again
I assure you dear, that flame has long been dead
It must be
False red

You're a heartache, a shameless tease
Reluctant to commit, I know~
But you're something special, oh what could it be?
Exactly what you've got
Doesn't matter much to me

And if you hear me callin, your name at night
Tossing and turning, nowhere to lie
Without your touch, life is, such a lonely bed
And if I start to blush when you smile instead
It surely couldn't be
False red

make love to me.

hot tears trickle down my cheeks.
last nights fight turns into todays reality.
angry words ring through my ears..like an earthquake sending vibrations of hurt through my being.
the rain of my soul leaves tracks as it escapes my body.
I pray that you touch me soon, forgive me, take me.
Please let me feel you.
My body aches for your touch..
I want to be your queen again.
I want to wrap my lips around your being..
and swallow your essence in its entirety.
I am wet.. dripping with beauty.
my breasts crave attention..
and my nipples grow hard.. reaching for your lips.
Please. touch me.
and when I think you have given up...
I feel your gentle hands on my cheek.
Dont be numb, just let the hard stuff pass through you.. Breathe.
So I breathe.
For you, for me, for us.
I am too ashamed to look at you.
Too ashamed to look into your eyes.
Too weak to face the pain, sorrow, and love embedded into your ora.
Please, just take me.
I want you to have me, feel me, protect me.
please,
dont let me go.
I am too weak from crying to speak.
I am too numb from pain to feel.
I am too hurt from my past to care.
Close your eyes, and hold my face in your hands.
Feel my breath, breathe with me. Deep, Deep breaths.
tears race down my face.
I Love You.
Just let go.
My body shivers. I cant control it anymore.
I cry... hard.
I cry, and I feel, and I care.
I close my eyes and pray.
Please.. let me feel you.. all of you. Please.. give yourself to me.
make yourself a part of me.
I think you heard me.
Just let go.
I can feel you. On top of me..
your touch. gentle, soft, strong.
I am wet with emotion.
Please. take me.
your tongue sends sweet vibrations through my body.
through my being.
I grow impatient. hot..heavy. A wave of fear and anger overcomes my body,
stop.
no. no. keep going.
words circle in my mind.
Just let go
but how.
I feel you. hard. up against me.
Teasing me.
stop making me wait. I want to yell. Throw something.
My body tenses up.
Make yourself a part of me.
Fill me with your love.
I cant stop crying. my tears are so full of fear, love, lust, longing.
to be free.
With you.
I never want it to end.
Please dont stop.
dont move. just feel me.
I am giving myself to you.
Oh how you have got me.. in ways I cannot begin to describe.
hold me. please dont let me go.
I love you too.

Sometimes in the dark,
When all is quiet and still,
I get a tantalizing glimpse,
Of a shadow that is there
A shadow that I know awaits,
Yet which I ignore all day
Neglectful of what it could mean
And what it's there to say
A shadow that's within my sight
Yet hides amongst the dark
A shadow that was given birth
From the regions of my heart
A heart that is encased in ice,
Preserved in glistening cold
A heart, which will remain the same
Forever in its mold.
And yet there is that shadow
Upon its dancing feet
Hovering just beyond my vision
Hoping that someday we'll meet.
One day I'll meet that shadow
And boldly take its hand
And feel the ice within me shatter
And meet life where I stand.

Life in Love Liz Browning

Escape me?
Never---
Beloved!
While I am I, and you are you,
So long as the world contains us both,
Me the loving and you the loth
While the one eludes, must the other pursue.
My life is a fault at last, I fear:
It seems too much like a fate, indeed!
Though I do my best I shall scarce succeed.
But what if I fail of my purpose here?
It is but to keep the nerves at strain,
To dry one's eyes and laugh at a fall,
And, baffled, get up and begin again,---
So the chace takes up one's life ' that's all.
While, look but once from your farthest bound
At me so deep in the dust and dark,
No sooner the old hope goes to ground
Than a new one, straight to the self-same mark,
I shape me---
Ever
Removed!

I may have posted this a long time ago but...it's the only thing that I have ever written that I remember lol.
I am a huge fan of Goethe and although I am no poet, the following is something that I jotted down (in the style of Goethe) to help get me through some of my past situations:

" Is it real or just a moment in time, time keeps on going but.......moments define "

OK, like I said...I am no poet but I thought maybe anyone who is hurting or happy even can use these thoughts for their own situation........or not. LOL
Blessings, TD

This is quite profound, TD . . . I like! :yes:

Why thank you Miss Peach!
I have my "moments" from time to time. ;)

Why am I feeling this way?
Was everything all a lie?
Yet you said I was yours,
and all of you were mine.

This gap between us is just too long,
both in body and in mind.
I met you when I was only four,
you met me when you were only nine.

For years you promised to be my friend,
yet you proposed for something more.
You first kissed me when I was twelve,
I didn’t have the heart to just say no.

I love you very dearly,
I know that to be true.
Though we are to be married,
you are still my sister through and through.

...

When I'm with you,
eternity is a step away,
my love continues to grow,
with each passing day.

This treasure of love,
I cherish within my soul,
how much I love you,
you'll never really know.

You bring a joy to my heart,
I've never felt before,
with each touch of your heart,
I love you more and more.

Whenever we say goodbye,
whenever we part,
know I hold you dearly,
deep inside my heart.

So these seven words,
I pray you hold true,
"Forever and Always,
I will Love You."

Oh my gawd so beautiful!^^

I love it darling! :bgrin2:

The years between us
were what were needed.

They had made me wiser
and left you innocent.

They had given me courage
and had not yet hardened you.

They had taught me how to love
but not yet tainted you.

They had softened me around the edges
but not not dulled your senses.

The years between were needed
so ours souls could catch up.

You were created for me
and my heart had waited for you.

The years between us were necessary
to make you and I
we.

Three poems from my series of sonnets on love and loss:

III

Disrupting the still waters of my days,
Creating waves where once the sea was calm.
You changed my life in many different ways,
The sweetest hours were spent within your arms.
I wasn’t looking for you, yet I found
A brief consuming passion in my soul.
I breathed you in, was happy to be drowned
Deep in emotion – so you made me whole.

Too soon you left, too soon you walked away,
You severed swift and quick my blinded heart.
All these new feelings left in disarray –
I’ve learned so much, and now I learn to part.

But ripples of your memory remain,
And never was there any sweeter pain.


IV

Closed tight and sleeping in the misty dawn,
Bright-coloured heart curled tightly deep inside.
Protected from the sharp chill of the morn
Till golden light persuades her not to hide.
And from the green cocoon she will appear,
She slowly, softly stretches to the sun.
Her petals quiver when she feels you near,
Caught in the rays of light which you have spun.

You tend the secret garden of my heart –
But with one sudden move you pluck the bloom,
Slice through the stem and tear my world apart
And send my vibrant colours into gloom.

And so this flower slowly curls and dies,
And loses what was special in your eyes.


VI

I miss you deeply, now we are apart.
I miss the way you lit me up inside,
I miss the voice you used to break my heart,
I miss the way you held me when I cried.
Not just the actual presence of you here –
although your absence wounds me like a knife –
I miss the simple thought that you are near,
That still you play a part within my life.

I miss the sight of you; you are like bread
To starving souls. I could for hours look
Upon the perfect beauty of your face.
Now all I have are pictures in my head,
And memories enough to fill a book,
And next to me, through days and nights, a space.

I am not ready to share a poem just yet, but I just read every poem posted here...& the one that touched me the very most was written by a membe r named "Sparrow" entitled "Make Love to Me". I have never read anything that moved me in such a way before that I did not write myself out of my own feelings. Her words made me shake, cry, get chills, & just ...feel...so much. I just want to send thanks out for the posting of that utter;y magnificent poem. I felt all that & more with my OM/YW relationship...just that same way...wow.

There is a storm...
When the sky opens up
And the rains stream down
In the shelter of your love
Is where my heart is found
As the thunder rolls
And the skies flash with light
You have always protected me
Whether daytime or night
As the drops beat on my rooftop
I hear distant drumming
Only to realize
It is just your heartbeat under my head

When I think of happiness...I think of you
You make my soul smile
Being near you feels like coming home
With you, I've found that there is more...me
Parts of myself that I never even knew were missing
I have found because of your presence in my life
There is a peace I have never known in your arms
Years have passed with an endless search
for something, someone...
Yet when I am with you
I feel content
And I am not searching but satisfied
Your hand in mine fits like a glove.
With you, my friend, I have found love.

A short little poem I found while cleaning today....I wrote it a while back.

So Cold -

Trembling, Shaking
Can’t Control my Teeth
Blood Drips
From my Frozen Lips
Why is the Pain
Not in my Mouth?

WOW it has been a long time since someone posted here :tongue2:
