Captivating Chapters

"Every day is a page to write a new story"

Each minuscule grain of sand
   running rampant through
     hourglass' prismatic time
  at hand, awaiting life's resolve 
   to seize a brand new adventure,
like the dickens' nimbly flair
  enthusiastically captivating chapters
      of a poetically inspired existence 
   amidst everyday's triumphantly 
             conquered reawakening

Love Her Chapters

Carress her spine, 
Finger the folds of her pages, 
Make love to her letters, 
Touch her where she is most fragile, 
Make her bindings come undone. 
Love her, nakedly. 
Love her like your favorite book.

Life- Chapters

When a baby take birth in this synthetic world
The joyness of parents on peak happiest moment in world
After the passing time a baby get admired and enjoyness in all peak
Everyone in the worls who knows him love him care him on the peak

Time is passing chapters are now going to opened
With the youngness stress is started it may little home worked
Now the time to make baby to a young one in the world
Situation going to be reversed everyone aspected dreaming from him

Now the baby who give happiness to world is now symbol of sadness
Now the to fall in love searcing for that someone who care for him.
Finally foung his own love by someone
Now again the happiness is on peak

Chapter of happiness get closed with the time
Broken trust feeling emotion care and all such type of word
The word alone is best friend for him
Now the hates the everything even ownself

Feeling finished care finished aloneness get to admired
Life is now worst for him and the frustation take him to the heaven
Lifes chapeters continued how much happiness and how more much sadness
It all the thing get finished at the end of the boy in the world

The Chapters of Our Lives

We enter this world and the story begins
The early chapters a distant and hazy memory
As awareness grows we begin to capture memories
Most of which being those that define us as an individual
We learn from our loved ones and peers as our persona takes shape
As we progress and more chapters are added "who we are" is firmly defined
That person that we have become now interacts with others’ lives
We love, we form prejudices, we project our likes and dislikes
All of this is captured by time and forms a storyline by which we will be remembered
Hopefully, these chapters will tell a story of compassion and caring
Unfortunately, this is not always the case as some take another path
If this be so, then the middle chapters will be filled with turmoil
As always time moves on and the chapters of our lives continue
Advancing age brings thoughtfulness resulting in either pride or regret
That which we are, that person that we became many chapters ago
now stares endlessly at a world moving too fast to comprehend
To live the final chapters of our lives we must do so with the realization
that past chapters now cast in stone cannot be rewritten
Our book of life is of our own making and each chapter defines choices that
we and we alone made based on factors that we faced.
Yes, sometimes our choices were seemingly not of our own making but in the end we must take ownership of the story line for chapters to follow.
As the final chapter of our life unfolds we either look inward and commend
ourselves for doing the best that we could - with no regrets and/or,
we look outward seeking the hopefully healing hand of our maker, or that
“power" out there that we perceive might conclude our final chapter with a
journey ending in restful peace throughout eternity.

A Response To Autobiography In Five Short Chapters

A single drop of clarity.
Fear not truth’s asperity.
Following your intuition,
turn, behold, a new direction.


Contemplate This : Chapters 1-6

Chapter 1:

Contemplate this...
End of life,
Forever darkness,
A place to hide,

( A middle aged man stands 
close to the edge. Enveloped  
in darkness he looks down, 
rain whips his face. In the 
blackness below, 
splinters of white, as waves 
crash)

Chapter 2:

Contemplate this...
Accept...life is bad,
Depressed, oppressed, 
Time line sad,

( He ponders, is this how it will 
always be? should it end here? 
, an exorcism of sadness) 

Chapter 3: 

Contemplate this ...
Those who wronged,
Synthetic weak,
You... inherent strong,

(But no, saved by a lucid 
moment, a thought takes hold ,  
not to let the selfish 
confessions of another lead to a 
leap of lost faith) 

Chapter 4:

Contemplate this..
Run away,
Re-invent,
A born again day, 

(He steps back, walks away 
, leaves all behind, and 
whilst others sleep oblivious, a 
new path beckons , to live , to 
love and to be loved) 

Chapter 5:

Contemplate this...
A giver of hope,
Someone to hold,
A reason to cope,

( He sees her, they 
share a glance, they share a 
few tentative words, they 
share the same 
desires) 

Chapter 6:

Contemplate this...
Dreams fall true,
Entwined with an angel,
Loved are you,

( He finds the purist of love, the 
hurt is no more, happiness 
floods his every moment.....he no longer 
stands close to the edge )

Pain's Chapters

The story of my stricken heart is told simply by her absence,
with the opening of the book timed perfectly with her exit from my life.
The hard words conspire and find their rhythm in between the lines of my feelings,
and echoes somberly from the preface to the tome's epilogue.
Page by page the joyless lines compile as pain's chapters reveals the awful plot,
eagerly awaiting the final word, while fearing how my afflicted heart will end.

Chapters

Our lives are like stories 
Like the ones found in books
We all play our part in the plot
But you were a bit more than just a character
Babe, you were a chapter

Chapters begin and end so quickly
So fleeting, like the way we would flirt
A heart-pounding beginning with a dry, cold close

I'm saying good bye 
This is for every time I could have cried
This is for every night that you forgot I exist
But I haven't shed a tear on you and, boy, I'm not gonna try
This is for every single mean thing you say
This is me deciding not to pretend I'm looking the other way
This is something I'm doing for me
So good bye, cause no longer will I be the girl who is blind

The chapter has sealed itself shut
So sit in your room and play some mean songs about me
I don't care, I know somebody with nicer hair

As a kid you must have been the bully on the playground
I'm done being the girl you give affection to and push down 
And I'm tired of standing on the sidelines while you try to run the show
I'm gonna move on with my life 
Prove there are things you will never know
There are things that books can't tell you 
Things only the heart can understand
You don't have one of those
So, pardon me, if I don't consider you a man

The chapter has ended but I won't shed a tear
The future's too bright for me to look back to darkness

Premium Member Discrete Chapters of Life

       Mathematically speaking,
       Life is not a continuous function,
       but holds discrete chapters
      to be closed at different times on journey of life.
 
     Carefree childhood terminates
     alarming to get prepared 
      to lead life on self confidence.
      
      Bubbling vibrant youth : Most alluring period 
      to fulfill ambitions, dreaming and dreaming.
     Aspiring chapter offering opportunity 
     of activities in broad spectrum at random.
     
      Onwards start struggling taking life as a Challenge.
       Career, Family, Responsibilities,  Duties  are embowered.
      Success to access, Failure to endure
      Love, Betrayal, Happiness, Sorrow appear in series.

     Inevitable last phase shows
     Achievements, Emotional Involvements
     turning obsolete, seeming Life to be meaningless,
     only to wait for last call  to reach the ultimate end of Life.

Chapters of Life

When one chapter of your life is finished
You feel as if a part of you has diminished
You feel emptiness, sadness and pain
But after a while you are again happy and sane

Premium Member Life Is a Book Full of Chapters

Early chapters are written without choice.
Scripted by parents from birth.
Chapters may read prosperous or despair. 
Innocence encounters ignorance life not fair,
One may learn to script their own chapters.

Open your book what might one see.
A roller coaster life full of diversity.
Open your book what will it read.
Narrative of facts or fictions your reality.

Life is a book full of chapters.
Some filled with bright chapters.
Full of strive, chapter after chapter.
The more strive, the sweeter the life.

Some lives are missing chapters.
Due to misguided writer’s block
Some lives have hidden chapters.
Unfavorable under society locks.

Life a book full of chapters.
Some are filled with dark chapters.
Full of strife, chapter after chapter.
The more the strife, the bitter the life.

Open your book what will one see.
The colors of life, harmony or misery.
Open your book what will it read,
stories describing your identity.

Each life reads like a book,
cause, life a book full of chapters.
Defines ones destiny,                                                                                                                                                                     before, now and ever after!

Isaih Is Missing On Chapters

As i read the last chapters of Isaih
in the hours middle of the night
i encountered them missing verses

they tell the story of Isaihs wife
tell of Isaih's journey to heaven
and his fight with pollynesians

a race of females who enslave
by use of technology and magic
they had taken over the gadgets

Solomonic devices used for communication
Isaih managed to defeat the pollynessians
and destroyed all the solomonic gadgets

Isaih gave up his spirit and was taken 
to heaven because heaven will need his
help again in the future 

the future when the solomonic devices rise
and the pollynessians try to gain dominion
once again through the technology

they hyponotise the user of the gadgets
the user becomes a worshiper of pleasure
and material wealth worshiper

that night am sure i read the missing chapters
the story is still very clearly in my mind
next day i searched for the chapters

to no avail and i wasn't sure any more
whether i had dreamt up
the whole thing

Chapters of Summer

Sweet love of mine
Can I borrow a sec?
To let your mind ponder..
How something so delicate 
Can leave you in wonder?

I dwelt alone in this summer's weather
Hot and humid put altogether 
It seems since I'm away from my lover
All joy has been plucked out from me like a feather 

But Sweet love of mine 
I want you just as you are, 
You do not need a dollar sign 
To be my one and only star

You've captivated me with your charm
 the style of your grace 
the tone of your enchanting accent 
Have allured me into your trap

The wonderment of that to me 
Is how my heart leaps for your presence 
As time disappears like a dark sea
I find myself awaiting for something to be present 

The delicacy of my love for you 
Is the warmth you bring to me
And peacefulness that soaks through 
When I can finally lay down beside you.
