Poetry for killing time

[wideeyedone]

And then where are you, if
you're not just there beyond my reach
just at the end of my grasp, if I can't
connect by hope, desire, and longing?
Are you not there?

You're not around the world
you're not under the sand
You're where you've always been.
Though I touched and kissed you
You were always in the other room.

lovely

Sighs. Your words have a special way of touching me.

Truly beautiful.

i see her wear my self doubt
she tries it on-- like a mask-- before the mirror
her eyes subtracting the things
she sees, but does not like

i do not want her to inherit
insecurity
fear
doubt

my self doubt makes hers grow
i have to lay it down
before it becomes hers
her inheritance-- from me

This picture is downright troubling...drawing more than the platitudinous thousand words.
Nicely done.

i see her wear my self doubt
she tries it on-- like a mask-- before the mirror
her eyes subtracting the things

i do not want her to inherit
insecurity
fear
doubt

my self doubt makes hers grow
i have to lay it down
before it becomes hers
her inheritance-- from me

 

[veryblueeyes]

Through my doubt
I do not shout

Through my fears
There are no tears

But break my heart
I tear you apart

 

[wideeyedone]

thank you, atmas.

 

[atmas]

A song of thoughts,
each to their own
a chorus of words,
against an equal tone.

Not a shout,
nor a quiver of pain.
Just a thought
we share, to avoid again.

Very good! Well done!

Damn. I wish the mood would strike me. It just won't. Ugh.

But that was great!

Turning beet red from the previous two posts.
Hah. Almost said "beat red."
That would be an interesting thread.

 

[wideeyedone]

the truth can be hard to swallow
but it is better than the syrupy thickness of false flattery
the soured milk of deceit

i miss the taste of conversation
artful sentences- like delicate pastry
contructed with time, skill and heat



(inspired by the phrase- word choice... odd i know, but this was the mental picture that i got)

 

[Devil'sChild]

My life is something lost
Each and every day is nothing but chaos
My heart is tearing from my chest
Knowing in my soul I have tried my best.
Your words cut me to the very bone
leaving me here hurt and alone
Breathing hard and cut to the quick
cursing those who try to trick
I should act like god and bring my wrath
but fuck those that stray from the path.
I no longer care about those who hate
fucking pervs just care about your due date.
I am tired of fighting the fights I can't win
I was born in the gutter ready to sin.
If you don't like the words of this preacher
Fuck you boy you should have listened to teacher.
I walk away now without guilt or fear
holding close the one I happen to hold dear.

You've got powerful virtues, dude.

 

[BeBe81]

You've got powerful virtues, dude.

Yes, he does.

Strong, and incredible.

Sadly my morals aren't up to the same level. It comes from upbringing and enviroment. Virtues are easy to hold, harder still to follow them. I do my best however.

I hate to say you are mistaken CFP. In this case I have to.

My desire to protect and save is what keeps me going on
my heart and soul is what keeps life from being fun
I hated so many things in my day
I just wanted to make those who hurt me ...pay
Online is such a wonderful world to live in
no responsibility, no reprecussions, no paybacks in any way.
I am the one that brings the issues back to you
If you think you can walk away and live free then insanity really fits..its true.
I am not god or the devil ..an angel torn
but I swear on those I have killed ...you will rue the day you were born.
I say this not in anger or emotional state
when I call your life at an end I wil bet you don't even get a cut rate.
I have so many words to describe your end
your heart and body is mine to rend.
I will have my pound of flesh and blood
It is written so it shall be ..watching you die in filth and mud.

You have so much strength. You shared with me when I was weak and I never will forget that. You are real, and passionate. A true friend and in love with someone so precious. I am proud to have you as my CFP.

I shared nothing but my heart with you Bebes. It was my pleasure. You were never weak you just needed a hand. I gave it and you moved on. Friends to be sure and you have called it right. I couldn't ask for more doll.

This speaks at lot to me...very nice.

The day she ended was terrible---
That evening he went through hell.
Her absence wasn't a problem
But the corkscrew had gone as well.

 

[Devil'sChild]

So tired sometimes, my eyes trying to open wide
I hate to think, to feel, to bother, why fuck with my pride.
You my angel are always on my mind
you treat me so generous so kind.
Fate has a wonderful sense of humor
For me to find you among all the rumors.
I saw through the cover the front
Spending my wrath on all those who treated you like a cunt.
My words are sometimes fit only for a beast
To those that hurt you, they are nothing more then sweet meat to eat.
I don't have the flow that I usually speak
I fear this evening I may have hit my peak.
I am done preaching my sermon this night
My words to one and all, fuck you, might does make right.

*smiles* I always love reading your posts in this thread..no matter what they're about.

You are far to kind. It was by far my worst *I can't even call it effort* attempt ever. Thank you though.

*cracking up*

Thank you. I so needed that.
