Best Read Between The Lines Poems

It was the point of a meaningless moon,
That being dealt life, its absolute gloom,
Vague stars shone hope to reposed past of Earth,
Dusk hath casts a crazed eve, pure hueless girth,

Joint lives of suave views have spread neath vain space,
Twain hearts of faint aims bent at...

Indecision!

No need to read between the lines.

By Stanley Russell Harris
(the new mad author)
and (Poetry Soup Honourably Mentioned)


No need to read between the lines.
There is nothing to be found.
Right way up, sideways, or upside down.

What you read is what you get.
There is nothing hidden and yet…
You...

I always tell people, I don't worry much about what you're telling me. I'm more interested in what you're not telling me.

I wish to thank you for applying.
I must say that dress is a great way to start,
I am a very visual person and it pleases me.
May I ask why did you choose that particular dress?




Ha ha, I agree it is very tasteful but I must...

Call me...we'll have to get together for lunch...
( Do you think my eye rolling gave her a clue or a hunch?)

You look so good in red...
( I can't believe what I said!)

I surely remember you...
( You said you were who?)

I love seeing you every weekend...

Your thoughts are deep,
like Voltaire or Nietzsche

And you pen them
your insight, feelings, love, pain

But there is more to you
I read between the lines

Discover the thoughts and the process
look into the lines, the intricacy

Unravel the spirit and the soul
remove the veil so others can see

Let your...

Standing here, with pen in hand,
Written echoes, of love so grand 
Hidden script, within each strand 
True inspiration, never planned 

With every pause, is a silent plea 
As you grasp what is meant to be 
In cadence sweet, it’s love's decree 
Believing, I have faith...

No matter how I try,
I can’t forget.
An undying song it is.
When I close my eyes,
I see that awful picture.
I feel hurt.
Pain. 
I try not to think of it.
Each time I do I tend to cry.
And though I laugh,
There’s no joy in my heart.
You took the...

Deep down in my heart I hold you,
Every breath of you is delightful,
Didn't know that you are the one for me,
Every time I see you,
Every time I think of you,
Peace is inevitable when I am with you,
You can feel my love yet you don't see...

Read between my lines, I tell you.
Read between my lines.
It shouldn’t be so hard for you to understand
That I love you more than anyone ever knew.
Please just read between my lines
And decipher the code
That I will love you ‘til the end of time
And I hope...

my heart
went slowly
tumbling
down
low
anger and rage filled my heart
I didn't exactly understand
but I didn't question why
I just cried
cried and cried until I had no cry left
I didn't bother to wipe my tears
they where too much to bear
nobody said it'd be easy...

Every written line in a poem, 
Or in any favorite song; 
There lies a deeper meaning
Of what is right or wrong.

Everyone is indeed entitled
To express his own opinion; 
It makes him more mature
In giving self-interpretation.

The term 'ends of the earth'
Teaches time element; 
'Ascending from the...

Something is happening under the sun;
Some are dying while others have fun.
Then you’d be offered when you still have enough;
Isn't it weird? Isn't it a bluff?

Reality is right there in the neighborhood.
All walks of life in the same old road.
And meet a fellow who’d ask...

Am I in your mind
Am I in your soul
Am I in your heart
Or are you just blind
Am I the one you can’t let go
The one you can’t from part
From love one can’t ever hide
Bur down deep you know
Still neither one is ready to make a...

The ultimate test of the times:
United in togetherness
We stand tall with heads held high
Shoulders back
Chests out
Lined up straighter than arrows
With the forward mindset
Locked and loaded on
Our target for success!
Deal with this they said:
"Right is wrong and wrong is right
Up is down, in is out
What we...
