Best Dwindle Away Poems


Premium Member A Sad Sunset
You were my sunrise and sunset,
     I was so happy that we had met.

I loved the way you paid attention to me,
you made me feel loved, like a rare beauty 

     But somehow the tide changed,
we went...

Premium Member I Hate You All
Yes you, and you, and you over there
The nerve you all have, it’s sickening
What right do you have to leave this world?
Why do you all die on me?
What is life that you toss it away?
Old and sick, humppph excuses I say
I have had enough
No one...

A Twinkle In the Sky
Are we more than just a twinkle in the sky
     More than a reflection of someone’s eye
Where to find meaning, an endless pursuit
     With so many thoughts, my mind can’t compute

Perhaps it’s best not to struggle in...

Take Your Fill
Take your fill of my time
Does it thrill you? 
Do I play every right chord in you,
Or do I dethrone your frustrations
Into raw rage?

Take your fill of my time
Does it pleasure you?
Have I breastfed your ego 
With my warm, mindful nip? 
I can hear my...

The Badly Drawn Goat
The pencil now resting the image was 'testing' for the creature before him, (his badly-drawn drawin') had come out 'not right' somewhat twisted and tight.

The picture in question, it burst with suggestion, for lines that seemed solid too often turned squalid. With unfinished thoughts (and...

What Happens To Love
What happens to love when one moves far away?
Do first loves grow fonder or dwindle away?

What happens when new love becomes true love and two say “I do’?
What is it that happens to me and to you?

As the embers of new love burst surely to...

Going to get a “haircut” today
Actually getting all of them cut
Cutting just one would hardly be noticed
Now I'm being a silly nut

There's many other sayings similar to this
English is overloaded I find
Wanna hear some others I've discovered
Well stay tuned it'll blow your mind

“Keep your nose...

Love On a Pedestal
The torment I feel inside,
Missing you wanting you,
Then there’s someone’s foolish pride,
Where are you?

Love is always there,
In SICKNESS and in health,
You know how I feel, I care,
You make my heart melt.

Days of wine and roses,
I might not give to thee,
But you can count on little...

Blind Men
A child passes by 
So full of joy
Life
A friend by his side
Broad smiles smothered all over their faces, a veil over childhood ignorance
Together they play, tumbling in the grass of the gardens of youth
But before long, before every scent in this blooming garden is taken...

Waiting For Another Day
Waiting again for another day

My agonizing pain persists and stays

That glamorous world is fading away

Incongruous obscurity keeps me under its sway

Toying with worst ideas became my best play

Was it  but an aberration and it died away?

Is it a deplore bigotry or my plans went...

Fragile Flight
Fragile Flight
 Our fleshly vessel wears with the years
While the spirit remains forever young
The days of wear begin to scream for freedom
From pain so intense the mind cannot overcome
 
Although the spirit is healthy, racking pain
Consumes our thought patterns and that small
Still voice becomes a...

Preservation of Our Inner Most Being
Life in a nutshell

You touch those around you with your heart, when it is the only way they can be touched.

You fill their lives with happiness, when hope seems to be useless.

Let the angels take your message, for they are our messengers.

Fill your heart with...

Ganjain Heady Trips
by Sashi.Prabhu
(17/2/2012)

Shrouded and festooned with quaintness i try to elucidate the trips of mystery,
T’was dark and it was then I realized that the morn and noon was history.
A smooth trip on mother nature’s bounties rolled on neatly into a joint,
It felt all day as me...

Premium Member Hope Is a Dream
Hope is a dream, a wish, and a prayer,
offering endless possibilities.
She's dressed in hand-me-downs, frail and threadbare,
spun from fears and responsibilities.

She visits the hearts of both old and young,
often appearing as their last resort.
She's been described as a slip of the tongue,
an Angel, and a...

What the Rabble Have Done
They taxed us without our consent,
we who though we were Englishmen,
said we had no say in governance,
so we simply boycotted them,
threw their tea into the harbor,
let them know that we’d had enough,
they sent troops to beat our spirits down,
didn’t think we would be all that...
