Best Draw Away Poems

The brave are more than ones who battle on
in fields of warfare, showing valor true
The brave are more than those that wars have won
There is a truth that must enlighten you:

the ones who fight the battles in their minds
who daily strive to keep their fears...

Where the forest is still virgin and the lyrebirds often call,
the bronze-wing comes to drink, and the ferns are growing tall, 
there are deer prints in the mud, and there’s leeches seeking prey…
this little creek meanders on its way.

Where a pothole track goes winding through...

I'm always staring into space
Trying to keep pace with your rapid race
Hoping to find a significant, tranquil trace...

However,

I often wish you'd be a productive brother
I know my father misses my beloved mother
I wish I can stop wasting time and procrastinating like no other
Things will hopefully...

To hear them is what's easy
But to understand them
I wouldn't make much of them

I don't know how to feel them
Given only the numbness
Or how to say them
Given only the discomfort
And tightness amongst the neck
Yet I'm told that I show them

How could I want something,
I don't...

This is my blank page; this is my manifesto.
As time continues to draw away years from my time here, I sit and I ponder what the meaning of my life is, and what steps I have taken to accomplish it. 
Am I halfway there? Am...

Why don't you let your feelings show?

We Look For Holy Moments, 
And In Looking, Overlook

Moments Blessed And 
Filled With Things
From Mountains We Once Shook.

Small Events Unfolding, 
Each One Smaller, Briefer Still.

As Cavernous Creases 
We Call Brains, 

Migrations Fill.
Spark-lit Seconds 

Speak For Us 
While Destiny Darkens Past.

Pointing And Branched 
With Lightning Flare...

Universe Unwinding 

Wonder beyond 
Glide through clouds of doubt
Take to the clear rising at the edge
Evident as the light of day takes you down

Explode there
Merge first…. yellow gold red beams with blue
Fold on the mighty winds of distant lost commands
Cosmic tumbles to where the universe...

The days are longer and colder,
As the summer days draw away from us,
The winter days bring us lonely nights,
And memories of you keep running,
Through my mind and heart,
This is the only thing that keeps me warm,
And makes me smile,
Seeing the beauty of spring,
Reminds me of...

Let your words come like leeches
sucking bad blood from the body
of my work. Swell with pride
excising disturbing humors.
Ill, I have come, and arm-bare,
begging to be saved.
Open a vein, young apothecary.
There is plenty of humor to spare.
I do not mind the mending knife,
the fire of its...

The land of roses of poses 
I roam at home, all alone
Then, I find that you're on your own...I place rainbow roses
On the ground above your deathbed, your-your wretch-tainted tombstone
Watching the ticking bombs of ancient times...explode...implode...
The stench of you
Goes through my nostrils
I'm red and you...

{verse 1}
I can blow your mind if you don't mind 
Like bombs in no man's land
Wait a minute or two...let time unwind
On flames the moment you called me names and threw the blames 
On me...on you...on everyone else, but Him from on high...no shames, no...

Oh how I wish I had his Art!

I am two fools I know: one for loving you,
And one for not letting go;
When you draw away, and abandon me.
		When all is said and Donne,
We are but simple fools; who in self denying
Verse, lament our state and...

Why have you turned so cold? 
You used to share with me your heart, your hopes and your fears. 
We spent the nights wrapped up tight, you in my arms, but after all these years.....you've started sleeping on the couch.
I reach out to you and...

A year: good, fair or bad has come and gone
The fairy tale you tell may be touching
Satan tried but no reason so to morn
Of your past, it has not been that clutching

Lord called and draw away you from the world
Yet tough but thou search not...
