Best Repetitions Poems


Repetitions

Pushups until I can't feel anymore
I lose count and let the tears hit the floor
Pain and crying, the only two ways I feel alive
I've learned to strive and not just get by

I'm thankful that I've learned to cope
Instead of hiding, dying on the inside 
Slitting your wrists just leaves scars 
Reminding you of how hurt you are 
And late nights will only kill you slowly
Drink after drink at the bar 

These days I don't run from my problems
These days I don't try to forget 
I let my body ache 
I run and run until I see daybreak

Lace up my shoes 
And hit the pavement 
Knowing I don't have to run from my guilt 
Because I have God's forgiveness

I push my body til it gives
At least it's a healthy way to live
It's been years since I quit smoking, drinking, doing drugs 
And yeah I sometimes still feel numb

So I get down on my knees and pray 
Then do pushups until the pain fades 
Now I do repetitions..
Instead of repeating my mistakes

Premium Member Love - In Points of Repetitions

Aaaah haa my love my love
How beautiful this love  love
Love my love because when a
Child is conceived in love and
Grows with love the child  grows 
Continually reproducing as he
Goes.  And falls in love and
With love another child is 
Conceived and grows with love
And gives birth with love.  And 
That child grows to love 
Another and the cycle continues.
The Repetitions is apparent.
Right there it stares. It is
Comprehensible. See the creed?
A tree a tree a tree. First one
Then more. Here and here and
Here then there and there a
Forest a tree a tree. The
Repetition is Immeasurable.
Repetition of breath confess be
Blessed address the rest the
Best of flesh no less.
Birth first the death the worst
And birth again again again.
Birth reproduction copious 
Conceptions love love love 
A tree a tree. Repetition is not
A curse instead a blessing. The
Earth the rounding sphere.  The
Perfect here here here there
Hear the Repetition? The point
is reproduction 
The proof of reuse. The truth
The truth. It is true. The point
Of Repetition embodied in time
Dawn to dusk til dawn til dawn 
Til dusk  til dawn til dawn. Go
On witness the Repetition with
Your sight. Witness the light
It harbors the knowledge of 
Life. Makes a sober man
Intoxicated.  Life intoxicating 
Fascinating love love love. The
Artful point of Repetition. Key
In ignition start the tranquil 
Repetitious 
Position rendition of love love
Love.  The planets and moons
 the stars by far the seasons their
Reasons. Renewed reviewed.
Repetition is further then farthest.
It resembles reflective ripples
Ripples ripples rippling.
It is... is NEVER ENDING.
NEVER ENDING! ENDLESSLY.
NEVERENDING!! Aaaah haa!

unsullied
              by preconceptions
              or prejudice
of atmospherics

&
again
         vibrant
           wrought
shimmering

made manifold
in reflections
with
   fleeting moods

on passing

Premium Member Repetitions - Apr 24

I’ve come to—k(now), the sobering conclusion
that I must be a lunatic; else what
sufficiently explains the smirking smut
clouding my judgment?—what viscous illusion—

outright{(diagnosable[,perhaps)delusion]},—
persuades me to heed your haughty strut?
Each inch of every corner of my gut
is begging—not—accept—refuse—intrusion.

ah!, but I budge, I give in to temptation!
why,why,why must I make the same mistake
instead of just quite well so simply break-
-ing the cycle of you?—o’ that salvation,
in what dark nook lurks it?, which saviour holds
the key that unschackles me from your folds?

Incremental Repetitions

Love is a recipe and will always be a recipe. 
 
We are each other’s medicines, each other’s cure, best taken (and given) by mouth.
