Best Brightest Of Days Poems

How do I love you? In so many ways
From the darkest of nights, to the brightest of days

In my loneliness hour, when no one is there
I fee the embrace that you so freely share

I feel so full, that often I weep
You are with me, even...

If darkness and brilliance could change their ways
You'd be my shadow on the brightest of days.
My shelter from sun, while they drink lemonade
With creamy, pale skin as I cool in your shade.

If bitter and sweetness changed definition,
What I love is your vinegar-like disposition
In a world...

Out I go on the porch, thinking of you as a bird approaches me
You whisper in my ears and I am full of cheers…
Mirror my reflection and don’t leave me with your depression…
Lean on me, friend – I’ll carry you along the way 
Getting carried...

Equanimity – mental calmness, composure, and evenness of temper, especially in a difficult situation


Euphoric moments
Balanced by the darkest of nights
One without the other
Loses perspective – like a ship without a beacon of light

Our lives can flourish
When we acknowledge the pain
To fight the inevitable
Drives the strongest...

Shadows



Shadows of moments
lived together
still afresh as dew drops,

Memories beyond time
sway in my mind
the shadows engraved,

The brightest of days
come and go
leaving them untouched,

I chase these shadows afar
running behind
gasping for breath always,

Watch them distancing
furthermore
as I am about to reach,

The thirst thrives with hope
in a desert
mirage keeps it...

Measure me son, for the man I was.
My sunset has come, and the man to dust.
If I had the time, I would light your day.
But even the brightest can fade away.

I leave you now, the colors of end,
the beauty of death and a day well...

I saw a place in dreams, when life ends I would go.
a place where the reaping, comes from that which you sow.
The people were shining, with a gleam in their eye,
when I asked where I was, they just smiled with a sigh.

A hint of patchouli,...

In the brightest of days gloom consumed it. In the darkest of places, We no longer can run from it. Thinking that bottling it up was going to fix it. Putting it off was just to stall couldn't do that no more. Manipulating could only ...

In the darkest of nights and the brightest of days, God promised to guide me in all of my ways. No matter the path that I may choose,
His love and protection I will never lose. His love is everlasting, and never...

There is too much ancestry coursing my soul 
  to do me any real good

To live in a cave on a deserted island
  my destiny best understood

Success once achieved is cast far aside
  its burden to hamper my play

Genealogy stalks and preys...

I dwell deep within your soul,
Radiating feelings of young and old. 
On the brightest of days,
You don’t remember me. 
In the darkest of times,
I lurk on the brink of your mind. 
Taunting and waiting,
For events to unfold. 
Allowing me to wreak havoc,
As your heart implodes....

Echos

The voices of the past which echo in 
our heads, the ones that we keep 
deeply and secretly locked up in our 
subconscious souls. The ones that creep 
back out on gentle winds, on the 
brightest of days when the rustling of 
the leaves cannot...

I have always been with you my love
In the darkest of nights and brightest of days
I have followed your soul to the very corners of the earth
I have felt your pain, heard your cries
And there I have always been
Never gone, but always within grasp

All you...

The blackest of nights
The brightest of days
Wandering the woods
I have lost my way
Sealing my fate
By approaching a large gate
My visions run by
At a very fast rate
Time has passed quickly
I have to move swiftly
Screaming out loud
Hearing nevermore
My thoughts have vanished
As I crash through a door
Falling to...
