Best Ignition Poems


Self-Ignition
All around me
Cars driving forms entranced
Their glazed eyes suited for the waiting day
My own sequined senses, faithfully harnessed
Travel
Inside my car
35 miles to empty, 53 degrees
 
Press seek and jump from mindless chatter
To scars singing familiar melodies
Perfectly timed, shadows fill the parking lot
Moon still calls “capture...

"Ignition"



Magic sits with you 
you wait and you listen 
for messages from the other side

this is true
this addiction impressive

you write her your gift
you whisper words as you write,
she sees you, she listens

very close
always present
you can't see her, she's missing

you write him his riff
some ephemeral missive
he...

A bowl of passion
a recipe of pure joy...
oven needs a light.

Ignition
The days pass slowly in cold repose
Futile as the frozen clock upon the wall
Without movement, there is no purpose
Without purpose, there is no reason
Without reason, there is cold repose
Shrouded in gauze beneath the world.

The day will come, the hour will strike
Comfort cast aside
Stairs descended in...

Ignition
I have broken through the membrane that held me within
and shaken loose the fluids that drowned me so
I have taken my first breath of fresh, free air
and now possess a liberty that is unequaled in this plane
I have been bathed in an effulgence that once...

Premium Member Ignition Within
Invite God to fill our being with joy
Growing gently, exhuming ego ploys
Night and day, gripping us in ecstasy
Infusing calm, tranquil serenity
Thirst for divine connect grows day by day
Ignorance ego borne, yet makes us sway
Oh hermit, in silence, simply align
Negating the lower, seek love divine

We look...

Self Ignition
the devils circle hinges on the souls ability to overcome
as the watchers shout through demons using serpent tongues 

they encourage the mind to sketch out a play in hell using angels as actors 
and a ticking heart owns the fuse to the bodies core reactor...

IGNITION OF LOVE 

The  candles flicker  to  and fro,
our smiles  are lit  with its  glow,
and as I touch  your hand  with  grace,
your  eyes reward  your pleasant face,

Premium Member Your Captivating Smile (Ignition)
The captivating moon light shows your smile 
Here I sit with visions of you, 
With great plans of our love growing in grand style 
This feeling makes me brand new, 
The imagery of your charm drives me so wild 
Cements our souls with glue,

Ignition
I am open and ready to be filled up.
I have become the receptacle, the loving cup.
I am the outlet always there to receive the plug.
The cocoon transforming the butterfly from the slug.

I am the river bed through which deep water flows.
The channel  bottomless as...

Ignition
Like a butterfly pinned 
in a collage, fluttering.
Death makes a deal.

I was appalled
standing on the edge
watching the withering body.

The lake drowns me.
Seagulls were waiting
for a renaissance.

It is not even midsummer.
The planting of the kiss
remains incomplete.

No sex was involved
in baring midriff.
Moon ignites the legs.

Ignition
My ignition,
When we met I had only ashes

You ignite me
You calm my nerves
You’re an artist,
You know all the colors of my soul
My friend,
You are so special to me…
You put the pain behind me
You restored fire in me
I love you
My man, 
You put life inside me
I...

Ignition

An abandoned ember will cease to glow.
Its amber rays will fade to gray, while its
Warmth is stolen by the passage of time.

I was an ember extinguished, reduced
To ash which had forgotten the light,
Unconscious to the world which had birthed me.

You were born from an everlasting...

Premium Member Bliss Ignition
I live in my heart although thoughts intrude
at times, which I dismiss from my presence
but they soon return because they are rude,
so I still my mind in blissful pleasance.

Caressed by bliss mists divine and sublime,
I remain for the most part in deep trance,
stirred breath by...

If Only I
If Only I 

Don't you sometimes wonder
about what it is
They say you got it all
but there's something that you miss
That certain kind of sparkle
ignition to the flame
and whilest in sollitude
my days remain the same

How am i suppose to do
the things i said that i would...
