Hold Dear
Cold lonely and dark
A life is without focus
With none to hold dear...

Memories I Hold Dear
O'er the hills of remembrance, I travel the height of every crest
To the valley of my memories
Where I left you with the best

Of them, fumbling through my reality
I hope and wish to find you there
In the arms of continuity

With raven locks of black hair
And in...

Premium Member No Crown Do I Hold Dear
Asking an artist to control their senses
is akin to instructing a lark not to sing.
A painter would refuse such pretenses
and a poet could never do such a thing.

Bind my hands but don’t empty my ink well.
Leave me a scrap of paper to write upon
for it...

All That We Hold Dear
lost inside my burning tears
swallowed by my mortal fears
lost inside myself i hear
i'm losing all that i hold dear

left inside the day to come
staring into past daylights
see you gazing at the sun
soon eclipse will show the nights

showing now that we have gone
lost inside a splintered...

Wishes For the One I Hold Dear
There goes a magician casting his spell 
Making words sway to his dance and bell
Sharing light and sunshine from his shell 
Whispering secrets into minds to swell 
 
Tall, Dark and Handsome he walked yonder
Leaving behind broken hearts beyond tender
Carrying his heavy heart torn asunder
Marching onward...

What I Hold Dear
recall memories
     that never cease in spirit-
                       keepsakes of the mind

I Hold Dear All the Hurts
I hold dear all the hurts 
that grow amongst the flowers
but I will not pull them out
I cannot uproot them
otherwise
how will I know
who I am
without bloodstained footprints
in the sand
to remind me
where I’ve been
and where I might be going?

I am the gardner
who’s weeds 
are the testament
of...

These Seven Things I Hold Dear
Sixteen minutes is all I had to grab what I hold dear,
now seven things left is all I have to always keep near. 

That set of six scrapbooks was the first I saved with pride, 
for they hold pictures of my Ella Rose growing up...

We Hold Dear
Everything we hold dear,
Nothing stays forever,
Some are gone with the night,
Our loved ones part from us,
Keepsakes left in the light.

Everything we hold dear,
Forever remembered,
Scars hide in our chamber,
Some long for the gone days,
Until their last slumber.

Everything we hold dear,
Like stars in the night sky,
Like a...

Never Met
You could say we never met
But I let you into my world
Muse come down from on high
In person personified,
Forever intertwined 

Moving in different directions
Still you will remain
A part of my poem
Gentle and kind,
Forever intertwined

You were good to me
Always so sweet
I was horrible
We didn't meet
I think...
