Where Judas died
It's where I'd hide
The crickets chirping
And the wind is whistling.

People have been dying
The lords are laughing
This is life's agony
This place of tyranny
A world of sorrow
People without good tomorrow.

Oh Judas
Where art thou?
Has been out heard
Has been outspoken
Has been loved
Has been broken

To my sorrowful country
I'd give myself, I'd bury
For dead is Judas
Not a boy but a lass
A case filled with lies
Brought you to your demise.

Their faces with a grin
Without realizing their sin
I'd sure miss you
Even the others won't do
I'll sure miss you saying "hi"
I'd bury myself and so here I lie.

Pls. do leave a comment after reading...

Much directed and good are like the pictures drawn for loves. Songs ofkissing loves and tonguing sexes for women just were poetic life.
However Sappho works are rare to see for modern now.
Many works did loss in middle ages of olden times.
Lesbianism comes to thoughts as human natures.
Also when those girls had a evil father. Who may also had a kind andbetter mom.
Asian traditions sexes are more unclean in views of peoples. Sexes couldsin. So as males are so prominent in social poses and so esteem birth and growthat male homosexual do very bad and much undermine by peoples rites especiallyfrom and in our olden day.
However women positions living societies all may lower so female homosexualmost could more agreeable that is women just could be sexes instruments infates.
True to say that Lesbianism life is gay is please is bliss.
Due to facts as both their partner come with slowly heat but much formore as vigor orgasms.
Also women orgasms take the longer pleasures.
However scandals travel fast and those who play a prank and jokes andother really bad to treat them and label them whether they are male or femalehomosexuals.
Dreams are tosses are base and gross and not for lesbians coming do.
Lesbians some are gleeful good for owning female sexual organs due toorgasms. Lesbians want for other just to joy and please for female status. Wanttheir partners do admired to their female preparing organs that due to orgasms.

It’s raining.

I could probably carry you
With one arm,
And keep you from harm
With the other one too.

I guess that’s why I feel guilt.
You’re a little to little.
Your mind is still brittle,
Easily filled up with filth.

But ad some peanuts,
And that brittle looks tasty.
The way you’re languid when hasty.
Ties a knot in my gut.

And that strut of the little girl that you are
Has water drooping from my mouth.
I’m like the sad stratus clouds,
That dribble on the passing cars.

I’m Petrarch and Dante born anew,
A perverted old fool,
Who thinks it’s still cool
To mix up some words in his bubbling stew

Of lascivious longing
For an underage girl.
But I like the way your hair swirls
And I bet I’d like wronging

You.
Little lazy teen.
Best that this remains unseen.
For who

Would forgive me,
Bet that’s not who I’ll be.
I’ll just stick to my whisky.
Maybe wait one more year.

My Jealous-Hate is tapping at the door...
It is crying--
Can you hear it--
It is crying for something more

If there be Light at the end of this Night--
Still the Loneliness will not

Can you hear it--
It is coming again,
And I can see no end

The sky ablaze with bright reds and oranges
Breeze softly whispering in my ear
Fireflys lighting the early evening
Tree frogs craoking, crickets chirping
Birds singing their last songs
Hearing the creek gentlely moving
Day fading into the night stars appear
Twinking far above my head, brightly
Moon sloftly glowing, showing me it's face
What a way to end the day, not a worry in mind.]]> Tue, 14 May 2013 16:48:16 GMT http://www.poetrysoup.com/poetry_forum/topic1475-relationships.aspx Tue, 14 May 2013 16:44:17 GMT http://www.poetrysoup.com/poetry_forum/topic1492-caught-in-a-current.aspx I am trapped in a tide

I struggle to escape

from the anguish inside.




Once I walked on a ledge

of uncertainty and doubt,

Now I plummet to Earth

but never find the ground.




I am splintered with glass,

I am stuck with a knife,

Shards pierce my heart,

I am drained of life.




I am tortured by hope,

I am betrayed by fear,

It hurts to accept

I am the only one here.]]> Tue, 14 May 2013 16:41:32 GMT http://www.poetrysoup.com/poetry_forum/topic1491-next-bow-soup-member-poet.aspx Tue, 14 May 2013 15:43:13 GMT http://www.poetrysoup.com/poetry_forum/topic1490-what-mature-language-warning.aspx we act upon our soul‘s insistence
to dare and dream to find…? What exactly?

**** the morning;
I sigh as I step into the shower.
Soon to be discarded dreams tug at my sub-conscious.
Another broken plot-line is lost,
the wildness of a night’s rest washed away alongside it‘ssweat.

Destined to die,
we spend our days as slaves
so we can spend our nights upon the couch.

Our individual everything’s
are infinite and insignificant;
a blade of grass that looms large above an ant.

**** work,
I sigh once more.
The subway’s dim, flittering lights
set the scene for my inner city journey.

This endless loop of mundane madness,
brings no love, no joy, or even sadness.
Churning numbers numbs my brain,
and at least a robot can’t feel pain
but blackness stirs inside an empty heart.

**** another lonely night,
I sigh again.
I sip my beer and smile,
finding comfort in nothing.

A witty sitcom shines in my peripherals,
**** the morning, **** work, and **** the night;
my drunken laughter explodes.

This long campaign has no reward;
no fat pay cheque, or love restored.
Life’s mundane nature now a perfect fit,
for those of us content to quit.
The tired soldier smiles as the bullet hits.]]> Tue, 14 May 2013 08:29:56 GMT http://www.poetrysoup.com/poetry_forum/topic1485-awaken-africa.aspx

An unwrinkled mirage of mild waves

Come; to warble the drum of my frailest,

As harvests of waves design the silence.

Arise three bones and transmit the music,

Sweeten these atoms, inflate this opus.

Hear this melodic chant, this sound lyric

Lull those ears with a resonant focus.

But all is commercial, all is aflame

Pestilence scourging what was once intact.

I do not exalt, most crave this harem

As firm that honest chorus will be forgot.

Mark this thunder and a sonorous stone,

For the price of nothing, sound brings you home.

No cure in sight, it is there unseen
Deadly to me and all around me
If it ever goes live, none are safe
I fight my tears knowing it is there
That one day It will take me away
Away from all I know and love
I cry not for me but those i leave
I try to be brave, to show them it is alright
I smile my smile to give them comfort
To let them know I will live in their hearts
Deep inside is where the sickness is
In my blood, waiting to take me
I don't want to die, but I'll be brave
Till the last, I'll be strong for them
No one can carry this burden for me
Just walk beside me, hold my hand
Know that I love you, remember that
My life was not easy, that I carried on
I lived the only way I knew how to
Doing whats right, with honor and love]]> Mon, 13 May 2013 21:06:08 GMT http://www.poetrysoup.com/poetry_forum/topic1487-the-shallow-grave.aspx
She’s gone but never far from you.

The shallow gravitation, she pulls you toward her rest.

Her hand outstretched, grasping to the sky,

Knelt by the grave, you release the pain bottled within,

The grief, the depression, the anger you feel,

One and all pour forth over the soul that is lost.

Her grasping hand with a hold on you,

Pulls you down within.

The grave occupied with the love you hold,

Keeps you always near to her.

From the grasping hand, release,

Escape her shallow grave.

With her name in your heart,

Turn around and strive --through life.

For she’s not in the grave,

She watches above.

And all that you do,

With love,

she watches.]]> Mon, 13 May 2013 20:11:41 GMT http://www.poetrysoup.com/poetry_forum/topic1486-new-member.aspx Mon, 13 May 2013 20:02:02 GMT http://www.poetrysoup.com/poetry_forum/topic1138-posting-a-poem-for-critique.aspx Mon, 13 May 2013 16:48:38 GMT http://www.poetrysoup.com/poetry_forum/topic1138-posting-a-poem-for-critique.aspx Mon, 13 May 2013 16:48:05 GMT
