Best Compromise Poems


Premium Member Resolve Problems Through Compromise
Not one to run when I hear an alarm,
But I have no desire to do others harm.
          I try to defuse the stress with my charm,
And use wit and patience as I disarm.

Foolish Compromise
I dream of the feeling, of not feeling too much
Being pleasantly mild, unbothered by touch
I imagine, I’m average and pleased to know
Achievements take effort.  I’ll go where I’ll go

As for uncertainty, I’d choose not to dwell
But go with the flow, through life I would...

Premium Member The Late Night Consultation, the Compromise, the New Delusion
The Late Night Consultation, The Compromise, The New Delusion

Three nights of sadness, each a woe'some torture,
on that narrow ledge a cold raging deep within
I having lost that which I had foresworn to hold
and in that realization- saw myself as a true fool.

While wearing a smooth...

Premium Member Compromise
“Compromise is only a weakness between two who are unwilling to work together”.

In the tapestry of love, two souls entwined, 
Marriages, a journey to perfect, beautifully designed. 
Imperfect hearts melding in a dance, 
A union of flaws, a second chance.

Discussion, the compass in the maze...

Psychological Compromise
I went to the mailbox
Much to my dismay 
I would've rather had smallpox
Than what I found today

I may sound dramatic
And I guess that is true
But what I found so traumatic
You sounded so blue

Did it cross your mind
As I curled in your womb
That the people I'd...

Premium Member Compromise
I am tired of seeing war on the news
Get our acts together and get a clue
Not everyone needs to perish for you
Turn on those that try to hide truth
We have to see clearer than you knew...

Field of Compromise
There is a field called Compromise;
I will meet you there.
To talk over our differences;
A feather of friendship, I wear.

I will listen to all;
That you have to say.
You listen the same to me;
We talk in a good way.

When two warriors;
Can come to understand.
We unite for our...

Premium Member A Battle of Resistance, Will and Compromise
Here I am, standing all alone
feeling so isolated, depressed and lonely.
The serenity around me is void of Life and Hope
and vacuum occupied both sides of me.
All these condemned me to the feeling of uncertainty.

I just walked on without making a decision,
and what I see in...

No Compromise
I planted my feet firmly today
Rooted deep in faith, never again to sway
So now the world will  scorn  hate and  despise
Dropping  ugly rumors and whispered lies
To paint me bleakly as a canvas stained 
 Judged and unforgiven and try to blind...

Your Love Has No Compromise
Love has No Compriomise

In your enamored eyes
I see nothing but peace that 
serenades through the scarlet 
clouds moving them  from east 
to west, free, gentle, yet 
powerful 
When I look into your eyes
I see no compromise
I see courage,
Then you tell me boldly, 
courageously 
Love...

A Man With Integrity
Our son constantly test his mom and me
Why the truth in life is so key
Can't he see all the trust he loses
In our ability to foresee
what his future could turn out to be
When he has no problem looking us in the eyes
To tell his despicable...

Don'T Want To Get Stuck Living a Lie
Don't want to get stuck living a lie
In a relationship that barely gets by
Day to day your heart unable to finalize
Stuck together unwilling to try
Anything new that makes us comply

Waking up every morning asking yourself why
Month after month wanting to say goodbye
How being together just...

Premium Member With Eyes Closed
When something we’re doing doesn’t seem right,
with our eyes closed, we look for an insight.
 It isn’t something obvious we feel,
it’s more like a sense that it isn’t real.

There’s something amiss; it could turn out wrong.
Something is missing or doesn’t belong.
In our process have we...
