Best Dangling(A) Poems

He goes by the name of Lacrimosa
He is the plain picture of a man
Those who don’t know him see him as a monster
But you and I know better that he is a broken friend
His smile drips of sorrow
His walk is that of a footless ghost
And...

WOMEN ARE EVIL - men ARE stupid

Women are evil, men are stupid
when it comes to affairs of the heart, the arrow of cupid
It's sometimes a game that a broken love plays
so clever these women creating such disarray

Men go in like idiots, hook line and sinker...

So, now it has come to this.

Raging fires,
layered against razor-tipped tongue,
ready to land upon eagle’s nest.

Ready for Solace’s oceanic visions...

Visions that never cared to change me,
only loves me enough to embrace.

She didn’t care to see right through me,
only cherishing me enough to see within.

She never...

Mornings are beautiful at the screen door!
Trees swaying with the gentle breeze
Birds are chirping their hello
Noise of a busy street - steady zoom of cars

Apartment life across the way - yard sales just beginning
Balloons bouncing on a sign proclaiming move-in special of the week
Nearby stores...

A quilt of snowfall
Interrupts my peaceful sleep
Rest comes into Spring


Blackened clouds looming
Determination of sun
A battle of wills

 
Rebellious bird
Early spreading of its wings
Mother close behind


Lone apple remains
Dangling a fragile branch
Protesting Winter...

I burst through my kitchen door knocking down my mother in the process and said "outta the way loser".

I went down to my gamer cave to reign my epicness on these poor little noobs at my feet begging for mercy, but it's them I shall...

Spring is in full bloom 
And the festival of colours
Is letting loose the wild side
Of the young and old in India
Drowning old hatreds to start anew
With coloured water guns and balloons 
Sprays and powdered colours are splashed
On all and on those who try to escape...

Helplessness invades
into my life and into my world
Chaos; Disorder

Helplessness invades
trying to imprison you in a box of no choices
	:A box made of tinted glass
	buried under the old, dry earth
	without any openings but the small split above with a glimmer of light
	where thoughts that aren’t your...

Fly with me

This poem depicts a beautiful picture of how God often set us up for success.

An Eaglet is hungry in his nest
His body steadied in a cold rest
Mom comes flying in an undulating breeze
In each flight, she came with empty feet

Mom pushes her little...

Looking up at the sky so blue
Gentle breeze carries the scent of you
Nose fills with your sweet smell
Look around but to no avail
Just a cruel memory that i can't forget
Broken pieces that haven't been swept out 
yet
Teases the heart like dangling a rodent I'm 
front...

A night after work,
David leaves walking,
seeing no one outside,
and hears no one talking.

He heads up the street,
and passes an old store,
then moves on to the alley,
just up a little more.

After reaching the entrance,
he sees a man there,
and a woman laying before him
with long red hair.

The...

Snowflakes are falling from nature’s frozen water, 
  the icicles dangling; a kaleidoscope contrived-
                  Angels in the snow are made from my daughter,

Look deep into my eyes seduce me with your stare.
come close and tease me if you dare

As if to almost have you and then you pull away.
like an unspoken promise for a later day.

You are so close now that you feel my heart beat
As i...
