Best Splitting Poems


Premium Member Splitting Sunsets

Sometimes my soul 
resembles distant horizons, 
like burning stars 
abandoned between
  dusk and dawn.

When the 
     sky hangs 
as heavy as 
    my hazy heart, 
I search for a sign 
from heaven 
   to soothe 
the somber sequences 
of nature blanketing 
   mountains of misery, 
as the spectrum of 
colors is full of deception.

Maybe the universe 
illustrates splitting 
sunsets within 
my murky thoughts,
As I'm oblivious to 
   the rhythm of 
riveting songs of spring.
I sing 
  tunes of autumn, 
orchestrated in 
   black and white, 
grey refrains remain 
locked as an encrypted 
  mystery of winter land, 
within 
   esoteric hieroglyphics 
blowing as 
   tornadoes of hurt.
I am envious of the 
sound of comforting rain, 
and clouds
   carrying chaos-
weeping reveries of angst.

But what if these
translucent tears 
and the anxiety I 
    try to hide,
fall like 
   mists of
        haunting memories, 
 to follow the moon-glade,
ruffling along 
  sterling ripples, 
unravelling 
 jasmine compassion 
across rivers of 
   scattered gems, 
would I then feel 
the light of love, 
 synchronize
a eucalyptus lullaby 
 that sketches 
amethyst amulets 
   through 
midnight fears,
to embrace these 
   fragile dandelion wishes, 
behind metaphorical
fields of periwinkle flowers.

My dreams are fading, 
whilst darkness whirls 
in unending circles.
I am barely breathing,
as the silhouette of
      a pale sapphire 
shatters into a 
       sea of sadness.
For you have 
   cast a shadow
upon the sun 
  within my mind,
and all that's left 
 in this eclipsed realm 
is the petrichor scent 
of healing,
 amidst 
  the dying petals 
in my balcony, 
  that mimic flames of 
life and betrayals.

Maybe, it is from 
  the aftermath of storms, 
we flourish rainbow 
    roses soaked 
in redolent incense-
roaming through 
an opaque canvas of clarity.

Splitting Heart Ache

visions of you
romantic visions of just us two
can these visions be possibly true

dreams of you
wonderful dreams of just us two
are these dreams really really true

my heart is now black and blue
my heart was once for you
my heart is now broken

in two

Splitting Easter Hares

T'was Easter morn and she thought it strange and funny,
Her basket contained neither chocolate, eggs nor money,
But there laid in the Easter grass,
To the surprise of the happy lass,
Was a package of batteries signed " Energizer Bunny".



Description of my love's Easter basket this morn, she found in the hay barn.

Splitting Heirs

A little dance around Stonehenge
As KCIII plots his revenge
No longer ignored
The King hones his sword
Heads will roll as pseudo friends cringe

KCIII's new horrorscope reads:
"Guess what? Today, William succeeds!
The stars explain
Your drop of reign
You plotted revenge but not deeds!"

Premium Member Splitting An Infinitive

As he read from his poetic works
Romance filled her heart 
Overcome was she with delight
Until he split an infinitive

(This is just in fun..)

I plan on working on it..

Premium Member Splitting Facts Reveal

Leo Varadkar: 'I don't agree with the Catholic Church's policy towards women
Speaking in Washington 

A bit two faced of him to speak ill of the Catholic church 
singling one faith as it was homosexuals whom entered it 
causing the scandal disrespecting God in the first place 
by abusing young boys maybe if the truth were to be told accurately 
and people read between the lines him promoting killing Irish children 
what values does his words have to be honest respectful clear  
for his personal opinion truly seems to be what he promotes openly 
above and beyond calling down names firstly forcing his agendas 
down everyone's throat his attitude and lies need to be addressed prompt 
as he dehumanises children of all races and sexes 
regardless of his high and mighty attitude and policy towards women 
when he has none only abortion spitting out of his pride filled mouth 
to put it mildly squarely on the cases examined bluntly  
LGBT should be held to account as well 
on certain facts obtained in relation to all abuses 
from victims of abuse in many churches I spoke to in person 
over the years I for one am not blindsided 
instructing his ignorant view singling out one church 
tells me deep down all I need to know about him 
I am a catholic caring little about what he disagrees with 
this world is awakening to a grave moral deceit against the house of Our Lord

Splitting Pieces of Mind

pentangular frequencies of 
auditory hallucinations
splitting pieces of  a
beautiful mind
the rope turns into a 
snake hissing the
priest plants bo-
mbs of sins
in my rigid tissues of ********
they suppress the re-ce-
ptors of dopamine sha-
ky we sleep peacefully
for a short while

Splitting

I operate in abundance of extremes,
Flirtish to skittish; kind-hearted to mean
I am a tolerant bigot or a emotional stoic
Yet everyone around me don’t even know it

The tug-o-war of conflicting interests 
Both teams in an endless contest
To control my fast twitch reflex
Of my best defence; verbal offence. 

Shutting people down from entering my mind
When I see the pity form their beady eyes
I don’t know if it’s pride or loathing 
When my tongue cuts words foreboding

the demise and destruction of myself and others
But I move forward for my mother and brothers
And with  the numbers of loved ones that every day grows
I need not fret of ever being left alone.

Splitting Hares

Two rabbits will always make haste
One minute is too long to waste
Each split-second counts
So he quickly mounts
The chaste are chased by the two-faced

Premium Member Splitting Us and Them

Within a chosen realm, 
Empty, yet occupied by many a mind
Stacked upon the next, as chaos forebode,
They’ve left their very own bodies behind.

In there, they’re Theirs, 
The Them, whose glimpse the gospel pined.
Stacked upon the next, in order by code,
Their there, where they’re confined.

As if, as if, They’re there, 
Yet neither hitherto here nor hither beheld,
Beyond on behalf our whereabouts share,
Here, where body and mind must meld.

Within this obligatory abode,
Full anatomy empty apart flesh and bone,
We bend to pretend the anarchy,
We wrought ere we’ve ever known.

“We’re their's,” 
He said,
In absolution,
Sure we’re here for share,
Yet neither fear nor despair was made aware, 
In replacing “our” with “their.”

Splitting the Bill

When friends share a restaurant meal
Who eats what is not a big deal
For the bill will be split
Though I have to admit
That some awkwardness this could reveal.

A group member might simply declare
He or she finds his portion unfair
‘Cause she ate so much less
That it gives her distress
To contribute a similar share.

It’s a problem one rarely expects
When the dining group often connects
Since there isn’t a doubt
Time will even things out
Or perhaps what they need’s separate checks!

Premium Member The Sea Is Telling the Truth

She sits by the edge of the sea
Let the sea water inundates the shore and her legs
Cold and brushing
Heart splitting
As they are defrosted tears from the past
Only loneliness remains
Still looking out the sea for a happy return
But love lost in the sea will never be found
Listen
The sea is telling the truth
Up and down, up and down 
Flush flush flush
Whatever is gone, is gone forever

Premium Member Ear-Splitting, Liver-Bellied Bullying

plink, plink, water in the sink
sinks slowly into budding suds
torturing the pans and fork tines
who want cascade - show on the road
plink, plop, hands over ears, now stop
but slowly the spatter of drops
like the slow go of a rain storm
keep habitating, repeating
their ear-splitting, liver-bellied
bullying of the spoons and cups
the apron-covered giant turned
off the faucet, threw in the rag,
then the sponge, ew…her hands with gloves
now each piece, that is us, is scrubbed
and ah, true running water-rush
each of us towel dried, put ‘way
from nightmarish brutality
we rest…we rest..until lipstick
lands on the side of grinds in cup
and pan slams onto surface heat
in other words, we get beaten
then comes water in sink, awaken
the bully who sleeps eight hours
look forward to vacation, hers!
