Best Sleeve Poems

Great solar winds
Agape’s breath
Where souls began
Cosmos's bequeath

First living soul
Then quickened spirit
Life’s son of gold
Mind soon seared it

Minds spent time
Lost from Agape
Became cursed in time
And not love’s copy

Within love’s genre
As solar wind blows
Renewing must be
Love's kingdom glows

The kingdom not swayed
By observation
Love's DNA
Whole convocation

Agape’s copy
Surety of life
Never sloppy
Devours the mind's strife
 
Life has surety
Carnal will not sway
Ace...

Premium Member I Wear My Heart On My Sleeve
I wear my heart on my sleeve.
I share in all honestly with everybody how I truly feel and believe,
and I Love All Of You Most Sincerely,
but please, all of you do not see a sucker as me
because I'll tell you all also in brutal truthful honesty
what a worthless piece of crap you are to me
if...

Premium Member Sits Upon My Sleeve
My heart sits upon my sleeve
Awaiting your stroke of love
Nothing can penetrate me
More than your soft blue eyes
But alas, those are the eyes
That bring me such peace
With a calming gesture of love
I await to pet your hair
And feel each and every piece
Of its pleasures, heartfelt love
Placed upon my sleeve
Just awaiting your stroke of love

Premium Member My Ace Up the Sleeve - In Bidens Own Words
I'm senile, demented, a has been, a dud,
At least that's the story, the Republican fad,
Yet little they know in their haste to throw dirt,
That they're helping my cause with their views so absurd.

Each arrow they fly with anger and speed
Is akin to a child that as yet doesn't read,
It has no direction it lands off...

Wear Your Heart On Your Sleeve
Wear your heart on your sleeve 
And continue on with your life
Your world is surrounded by clouds 
Filled with confusion and strife 
Your mother may be gone 
But, you have to find a way to carry on 
Never forget what she taught you 
Pick yourself up and be heartstrong...

Premium Member Was Adam Or Eve First Up His Sleeve
There was God all alone in the world
   Nature and wildlife merely doing His bidding
Who to create first, Adam or Eve?
   You want to be TOLD how to make Adam?

Heart On My Sleeve
Am an artist i wear my weary heart on my sleeve
Am an artist am wary of revealing too much
Am also human i do fear the word scandal
Am from a family and family is sacred
We fear so much the dreaded word scandal

Am a free spirit i write from the bottom of my soul
Am a living soul...

Rainbow Sleeve
When you make your leave,
Pull up your rainbow sleeve 
Red leaves
Green sleeves
I really wanna touch it
My Heart Grieves in This Perilous Pit 
Cuz you're on my mind
You're on my mind
On my mind
My mind's eye 
A treasured find
I really can't...deny

And I can't 
I can't hold on 
For dear life
I can't 
I can't go on
With this life...

Heart On My Sleeve
i listened and cared when no one else dared,
when you were standing alone naked and bare,
as everyone shrugged and walked away,
as your pain intensified everyday,
and yet...did they even care to see,
or want to spend extra time to love in generosity,
but oh, so true...how the story goes,
the closest heart gets the brunt, you know,
blames of ignorance...

Heart On My Sleeve
It's just me and my shadow tonight
I've been thinking about you a lot today
You found me just as I lost my way
Wearing my heart on my sleeve meant Cupid couldn't get the aim with his arrow right

I put my pride down so I could say this
I've had people come and go, but you're the girl...

Premium Member Heart Is On Your Sleeve
Your heart is on your sleeve
its the only thing I see
as prominent as can be
so bright, so red, so free!
It speaks so loud to me
it cries and makes great pleas
so crazy, you wouldn't believe
that heart that's on your sleeve.
Your heart is on your sleeve
it can bring you to your knees
with it's demands and needs
your heart...

Wear It On My Sleeve
I wear my heart on sleeve 
So what I cherish love hate forsake 
Is engraved on my face 
Today is no different so how can I be free
From the prism of my emotions 
The book is open knowledge I'm still soaking what takes time to create 
Is never easily broken 
You can quote me on...

Premium Member Night's Sleeve
I was trapped in a fast-food drive thru.
From inside the sleeve of night. 
A man with crow eyes violated my blind spot...
Vomited something incoherent straight into my soul.
He then darted toward the car behind me...
Then slithered back into night's sleeve-...

Premium Member That Heart On Your Sleeve
That Heart on Your Sleeve 

It is very sad to see a situation where a person or any
person ends up wearing his or her heart on their sleeve.

In the end, the expression, “wearing that heart of yours on
your sleeve” does seem to be a big ditto in human society.

When love and emotions come into conflict...
