Best Paralyses Poems


Premium Member It Was the Word After All
Wrapped into a cocoon of impenetrable meaning and faith he followed the light

Doom and gloom had once shadowed his library of dreams and contentment

Scattered in his loony resemblance of a rational mind words rearranged reason

Analyses can be paralyses when parables and images leave inclinations behind

On...

Premium Member Courage
Courage animates us
Brings us to life
Makes everything possible
Yet, courage is the rarest quality in the human person

Courage is the absence of fear
Fear paralyses the human spirit
Courage is the capacity never to be afraid
Courage is the fear that has said its prayers

Courage is required by practicing...

Unbounded Love
I had to travel miles to find a rose flower then I found you, my flower and alas! My search was over and I had to forget about the rose itself. That’s when my career changed from a florist to an astronaut because I wanted...

Crying Without Tears
Many times we cry without tears
The fears we attach to our subconscious mind
We become blind to our destiny
Yet we discover that silence only makes it louder

Crying without tears is a common practice in the 21st century
Having tears empties the soul
Having no tears paralyses the soul...

Premium Member Killing Cicada Killers
There are things in my life of which I'm not proud
But my letting friends down tops the list, 
I guess I could let my mind walk in a cloud	
But the friends that I've lost are still missed.

Friendship can be offered to so many things, 
There...

Giant Trapdoor Spider
Moves swiftly in tunnels like a  rider
Though many called him a deadly spider,
Just two legs different from normal fly,
His mandibles and toxin he holds so high,
Lying in wait for his prey with web net,
Stabbing this creature with pronounced teeth set,
Attacks within his burrow away...

An Eternal Pain
An Eternal Pain
When you are there, your silence gives me pain
When I don’t find you, I suffer but in vain
Both your presence and absence trigger my tears to drain

My sufferings aroused within me a situation so critical
This lethal agony of my life is seriously suicidal

Premium Member Feeling the Fear
fear has negative downward effects
freezing you within its painful grip
there's a consciousness deep within
making you feel about to slip
 
Why has fear this awful power?
that numbs you into its hold
making you lose your nerve
freezing solid so very cold
 
This fear has an inconsistency
never knowing its...

Premium Member Courage
Conquering my own fears that lies within
Overlooking things that keep me bound
Understanding that fear paralyses
Remembering I am resilient and strong
Always looking ahead and not looking back
Giving myself the chance to learn new things
Engaging in new ways to show “courage”daily

Of Your Time
Fear paralyses me

As the tears pour down

And my heart breaks

Ever so slowly

 

The waiting is worst

Without answers or hints or

Even a look to go off of

If you were around I could read you

 

The weight on my chest

It's hard to breathe

The simplest song releases

The next...

Premium Member The Simple Truth
“be at ease, oh hermit, in thought free awareness
you are, as you are complete, one with that oneness”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Let us be clear
We are here
In this mind body
Endowed 
With senses five
Having polarities
Out of which 
The inner is dormant
Since our attention
Is externalised 

Likewise thought
Has two components
Of an indivisible...

More Or Less
The mind in constant change for more,
to have or not and what to adore.
Matters of love promulgating those needs,
misconceptions attaching seeds.
Contenting with natures faithful fruit,
to honor that given health sphere suit.
With less, more souls meet at glance,
when facts fall dead and truth takes advance.
Virtue dissolves...

Anxiety
One moment you are sitting still,
the other you're not. The worst 
moment for anxiety to hit is 
probably when you least expect
it. Can you expect it though? It
waits for you to be weak, or to
be your happiest self. It strikes
when you feel nothing and then...

The pain of genetics
To all the people in darkness
Lemmi shed some light
So that you can see into my world
A world so big that sometimes I get lost in it 

If you've ever met me in person
You were left in awe
Cause I've been able to make sheer will
bend to...

Premium Member We, the generation of '50
We, the generation of '50,
Time-travelers with stardust in our hair, with memories planted in pockets,
Rooted in decades embraced by change, souls adorned with the dawn of the post-war world.
We spun on the carousel of the '50s, enveloped in the unrestrained laughter of childhood,
The '50s-'60s found...
