Best For The Moment Poems

People only love you for the moment
As soon as times get hard they become opponents
I don't trust a soul, I'm okay being alone
People taking shots at me, became my comfort zone

Fake love, fake friends, fake hugs, fake loyalty
If you're going to judge at least do...

I lay to sleep
I dream of you
Then I wake up
But there's nothing I can do
I know it's unreal
I know you're not there
I try to remember
The moments we shared
Even though you're gone away
In my heart is where you'll stay...

once in a lifetime
this moment
precious as it was
would never pass again

how i longed
for it to linger
to capture its essence
immortalize it

so i wrote this poem
to give it life
and set it free
on wings of a butterfly 



Published in my 24-page photo/anthology book ~IN THE GARDEN OF MY...

Where are you?
Where did you go?
How can I make you return?

Are you with someone new?
Of me does she know?
Or how for you I yearn?

What should I do?
What is left to grow?
Why is it no longer my turn?

Has she asked who?
Does she speak slow?
Can she not...

Living in the shadows but you still hold my heart

No light at all for me since the day we did part

Pleading for a sunray to feel again with love

Cursed into blackness no more illumination from above

Torn from the balance of equal light and dark

Wanting to...

Intense gray mass of rolling clouds.
The sun shines behind its brilliant rays
which ring the clouds in certain majesty.
For the moment I am complete,
had something delicious to eat,
have comfortable shoes on my feet.
For the moment I awake to blue skies,
and a beautiful canopy of lovely mountain
ranges,...

Just For The Moment

Follow me my friend, into a journey of our adolescent youth..
Two young girls giggling, holding hands.
Life’s dreamers through the sands of time. Can you see it? 
The joy of being young and alive, naught a care,
only the kaleidoscope of our minds embracing,...

Live for the moment, be in the present

Life is filled with ups and downs obviously
It is never a straight road as everyone wish 
It is a bumpy ride with fast twists and turns
Hence instead of complaining and carping
Merrily live for the moment, be in the...

Nature filled with flowing imagination makes it's entry _stage right 
Slow-motion grandeur, with elongated trails of gold, red, blush pink, 
and fiery yellow;
Sprinkled about, majestic forms _twisting upwards in billowing white
regal splendor.
For the moment, time stands still.
For the moment, my system slows to a tranquil...

PAST. A nice place to take tarriance but definitely not a good one to live in. 

PRESENT. Time to lie for the moment, to take time to giggle and to enjoy today for what it is.

FUTURE. Something we’ve wished for a magical fast forward button...

Taking in the air.
Living for the moment.
Undressing this wicked witch,
called "life."
Just searching for the truth in her.
The power to motivate,
and manipulate
has me believing
I make this earth quake.

My compulsion for chaos
has become my way to escape.
Previous struggles linger.
Thinking all my faults
are at my own cost.
Leading my...

Sometimes we allow our emotions
To take precedence to instinct,
Allowing feelings
To overcome common sense,
If only for the moment...

We let ourselves get swept away
By the waves of Deception...
Not Feeling, not being,
Not even living in reality,
If only for the moment...

Sometimes it's better...
Not to feel, to be untouchable,
Unreachable, unreliable,
With...

I get
Addicted
To her
Novocaine
Moments,
The times where
She makes
Everything
Quiet.
She lights fires
In places I can’t
See,
Burns tattoo-like
Days into my palms
So I’ll never forget.
And I won’t.

Take my hand
And
I’ll swallow you
Like an angry
God-
A distant
God-
One
I can’t find
Myself
Believing in.

Then,
Tap into my
Soul
Like a maple tree,
It bleeds out
Memories
And heartbreak
Hopefulness,
Like this time
It will be
Different.

No two
Loves
Are the same,
Or...

My feet pounding
Against the pavement.
The sound echoing through
My vacant mind.
Frustration and
Anger forced into
Each step,
Each attempt to
Escape.
Running away
From the pain,
The grief,
Life....

For the moment can we just accept what is, For the moment can we just forgive and forget
Being in the moment is where it begins, Dwelling on the past is where your story could end
Lets hold on to each other and embrace the warmth between...
