Best Mirage Poems

I laugh but I want to cry
My heart is in so much pain
Like I'm about to just die 

I'm not ready to say bye
I need shelter from the rain
I laugh but I want to cry

Please God tell me why
Hurt runs through my veins
Like I'm about...

All one will ever need is you everlasting loyalty 
where a thousand teardrops are sourced 
glistening gems from the fountain they shall fall 
with the grace adorned beauty held within

That of a single tune striking cords deeply
Kissed by the oceans is the salt contained 
In...

MIRAGE


My heart,
Believing in the reality of your love, 
Followed you into passions’ burning
Desert,
In search of the promised oasis of our
Dreams
Where happiness, you said, so easily could
Blossom

BUT

A mirage your love turned out to be 
Thus
Under the sizzling sun of disillusion was
I left,
Sacred oaths taking,
Not to listen...

Sailors Rusty and Oz cruise back from the steely shores of the Bahamas, underway and navigating to Key West. Tired from the ship’s routine, duties, and three long months away.  There is a full moon, and the stars shine like diamonds in the black...

Hues I desired, soon abandoned my sky
As flashing thunder ignited fiery clouds
Dissipating orange glow evening sought
Turning wild winds into advancing storm

Having promised you a galaxy of stars
I stepped boldly to go where they are
But there was no moon to guide my path
As I waddled in...

Love all hate none
is a common saying 
I too fell prey to it
And Fell in love ....
My love worked well 
As long as there was sunshine
It vanished as the night approached
my shadow was no more  with me
Love was gone
At least for a day
Can love...

The black-as-widow’s-weeds night of endless stars 
was so cold...
cruel as temperature 
plunged its frigid fingers feeling through my being
fondling my heart and soul without mercy
molesting me - taunting my will to live
and just when I thought 
the ice water in my shivering veins would kill...

vast arid desert
cold solitary existence
plush silky sand dunes...

This barren desert hot and dry
as noonday sun is beating down;
I’ve walked for miles, no one in sight,
and over head the buzzards fly
awaiting death to end my plight.
My throat is dry, my skin parched brown
while on my face I wear death’s frown.
I long for water...

My Inspiration,                         My Only Beloved,                ...

In the midst of a barren land,
Where the scorching sun never fades,
I wander alone with nothing in hand,
Only my dreams that my mind creates.

My eyes search for a vision to cling,
A glimpse of hope, a chance to survive,
But all I see is a cruel mirage,
A...

As my iris heart
sleeps on an orchid pillow ~
fading memories
alive like alzheimer's blooms
swirl in magnolia zephyrs...


I'm a myth, reborn as rust, in life's twilight rendezvous,
laced with truth's tulip Luna and lies' lavender crescent ~ alike
like laser light, serenading in cranberry croons of time. 


Eden's mirage...

It's all make believe, isn't it?, 
                      Marylin Monroe


Foundation smeared grid of Facebook likes 
saccharine coated lies, pretending the truth.
Advertised love, behind every pretty...

a mirage of love
in a desert of loneliness
a glimpse of hope 
far in the distance

a string upon a labryth floor
the key to open
a long locked door

the solutions to problems
that cause much dismay
the answer to prayers 
prayed that very day

the cure for a sickness
that ail a...

          ah an oasis
