Best Recognize Poems

Sometimes love feels like a game
that's devoid of any rules.
And unsure of what to do,
you're obliged to play with fools.

Trust is but an illusion;
fraught with insincerity.
For life's broken promises
tend to obscure clarity.

Loneliness rallies to hope;
fearful of what fate may hold.
And you keep spilling warm tears
over...

If I don't answer my phone, it doesn't mean I'm drinking at the club.
But maybe I'm blindly stealing home plate to another woman's heart.
I hate it when people say I'm the one that changed.
Open your eyes! It's just me with a bigger 'fro.
Instead of fighting,...

They say real recognize real.
That means you can be selling drugs on the corner of Cherry street and no one would notice
you.
You walk in a candy shop with a bomb on your waist and nobody will ever report.

Lets make things clear. You're not God!
Miracles that...

ERRANTLY ERRANT

There once be a pair
They met in a park
In the darkness of despair
And suddenly a spark

But an errant flame this would be
Alas, a lady’s lad and a lovely lass
‘twas on a night two wouldst agree
Each to decree and agree to walk on hot rocks...

You seeked the hidden treasure
You wanted to know what your heart truly desired
You wanted to feel those feelings that cannot be measured
So here it is,can't you feel?the bond we share....me! I'm the one you sired

Nothing to be afraid of
Afraid not that i might leave
For this...

i often find myself having trouble articulating my words
my sentences get stuck in me and hide beneath my tongue as they slur out of my mouth,
so i refrain from speaking
i find my needle and thread and stitch up my mouth before my words become more...

We want you ? Never a smile upon that face and why not
This is serious business; cradling their shores of, never more....
It's a family tradition; rock-a-by baby with their golden google eyes ?
Sailing across her sea ninety degrees separated from another's blood shot cries
Insidious this...

He's not a man who runs the streets
He's hard working, and educated
Infect he's a self employed brother
A man who enjoys the best in life
He has good credit, a house, a car
And many other fine things
But he doesn't have any kids or a wife
Now don't get...

come sit with me a while, my darling
beneath this apple tree

come sit with me, my sweetheart
do you not recognize me

come sit and keep me company, my love
i’ll welcome you every season of the year

come sit with me, my precious
i’ll listen as you pour your heart...

i noticed an enticing gleam in your eyes
a gleam that enunciated precisely what i needed to hear
but somehow i was slow to recognize
when i discovered what your stare made clear

in those emerald orbs i saw your heart
in in that stare were the words "my dear"
that...

Everything you said you’d be
yet I didn’t believe
years of being unworthy
	changed for me.

repeating a past unwanted
stood still once confronted
	with losing real
	first I had to feel.
numb far too long
	neglecting Love became wrong.
how else can I explain
	the need to change.

when you recognize your soul
	there is no letting...

Smirking in fathoms of my heart,
I grimaced inntricately,
at the inane manner that you glued your eyes to me,
do you comprehend the null that voided deep.


I would not opine that knived and wounded I was,
the pain was dull and yet enormous,
it felt yet did not ennerve...

almost touched.
hearts that brushed 
in passing.

lasted looks
with drops of rain
amassing.

memories  enhanced
twigs of despair 
grown to passion branched

cab, puddle, heel, ankle

eyelashes lost
in looks that were tossed

his way.
this day,

started differently.

heartbeats separated 
by oceans of city ships

all yellow 

lost, in seas 
of soulful pain,

but two brushed hearts
in...
