Best Shed Light On Poems

My prayers are not asking you to
 
save me from my enemy.
 
My children have turned their backs.
 
They praise dance with many
 
Adversaries-
 
When they need be refuking,
 
protesting and rebuking.
 
Among-st those who fight against me-
 
be my offspring.
 
I fear not the...

I carry our friendship in my mind
And like a “Welcome Home” banner
It warms my heart. 
When I see flowers in bloom
I think of your poetry;
How your words paint such colorful, 
Vivid tapestries.
Even on the greyest of days
They brighten my world,
Shed light on my emotions,
Lift my...

I must carry this torch down to the cave
To shed light upon the walls of my heart
For, if not, I will take it to my grave
And on that path may make an early start

I cannot think of love, when love is what
Consumes my every thought...

I Am cautiously optimistic
I Wonder what I will do for the rest of my life
I Hear violins when I dance barefoot under the moon
I See Jonathan Livingston circling rainbows in the sky
I Want to be brilliant in a big comfy chair by the fire

I Am...

Lying in a heap face down on the floor. 
No reason to live just don't care anymore. 
Nothing really matters no reason to stay. 
Need some relief, take the pain away. 
Dozens in my life but I'm still all alone. 
Going thru the motions just...

I remember the day so very clear.
I was alone for so very long.
Emptyness was my heart untill 
you were here.

A dark rose that shed light.
A perfect answer.
To a question unknown  from spite.

We found soliace in arms covered in emotional 
scars.
You lost in gloom.
I from...

I know I have been on repeat for 15 years
 I lost all my originality when I was sick and stolen from
  My guess is it poured out along with my soul and fears 
 chasing after my sanity as it flowed away in...

A great tumult has occurred in the sea
agitated waves tussle and brawl in the sea

A sea, whose waters are parted,
parted by a swarming multitude of beasts, and one Great Beast

Beast, I advise you, there is a King, a Star in the Day
riding upon a white...

Choosing that faithful woman to fulfill this fate,
she'll conceive a healthy baby with a loud scream,
a sweet cry so innocent piercing air and soul,
touch him tenderly, he is the fruit of our seed,
may his faith shed light on doubt and darkness,
let's hope that his deeds...

Evolution leaps
A fish and a dream take place
Mind rejecting all

Day and night unfold
A fish and a dream persist
Bring opaque meanings 

As I go along
A fish and a dream haunt me
Now getting clearer

Every moment
A fish and a dream shed light
Abundant omens

Quest for knowledge ends
A fish and...

It was a home on the river we lived .
It was the ghost of a young man whom had taken his own life.

I still remember the vision of him walking by me with a blank stare 
We,  as a Family of  seven ,...

All about me the butterflies feed and soar,
my heart flutters, my mind takes flight.
Every second electrons escape bondage, shed light—
this is how I would paint the day, flapping in joy,
instant by instant changing images, changing tune,
beckoning me beyond my world, afar, off on a flight
out...
