Best Substance Poems

 x You,
the one who hurts me.
 x You,
the one who chains me.
 x You,
the one who controls me like a puppet.
 x You,
the one who has my strings tied to your fingers.
 x You're making my choices yours and I've gotten used having no...

Life is in essence the sunrise at dawn
A touch of fresh colour when a picture is drawn
That first morning breathe of mountain crisp air
Feelings created by an old teddy bear.

Life echoes bright colours that appear in the spring
Or the freedom created when using a swing
That...

A woman of substance 
 
I`m sceptical of the Dutch
One of them stole my beloved
He was a painter
Made her beautiful on canvas 
And she fell in love
I wrote a poem on a torn 
Piece of paper-

Nailed it on her door
The usual...

Between the tight spots
of living and wishing
Some find their peace at
the entrance of escape.

SPRING OF SUBSTANCE


Adorable word  drawing a rainbow of substance-- SPRING
Benumb snow-white cloak that drapes the earth,
charmed by strips of  golden spotlight above blue skies
delicate cloak now being peeled to show
emeralds of nature: daring to model life
Footsteps ready to walk on warm green grassy...

The streets have become lonely
Days have gone quieter
Gone are the days when kids would play until dusk
With joyful sounds that rejoiced their mothers and fathers
Distancing themselves from substance abuse.

Our generation is lost
Our schools have been abandoned
Our homes are desolate
Substance abuse rules our nation.

We weep for...

“Thanksgiving’s Substance” (Internal rhyme)
 
T-hanks my soul for everlasting life, I am freed from mind’s strife,
H-eavenly Godly material, Love’s faith ethereal,
A-ngels  appear as human flowers,  they are of God’s powers 
N-ever a thanksgiving cheer, without paranormal is clear,
K-ingships of which no strong winds,...

of wisdom press.

And

live to see stars
embedded therein.
Honorable

You ask how I really am when you damn well know,
My world is crumbling right now.
But I'll be fine,
Just give it some time,
Just take it one day at a time.
This isn't the first time,
Nor will it be the last,
That I've fought against myself.
It's okay to...

I speak my thoughts...you do not hear. I reach to touch...you are not near.
I matter not to you, nor to any other. I am invisible...you do not see me. 
I have no face; I have no substance. I try to speak, there are no words...you...

Killing time before a movie,
an ex and I 
rifles thru what the nearby shoppes had to offer,
hoping to be aroused by some 
remarkable deal.
I was making a Facebook post in
the first row of used clothes
when Eric sent me a text:
“Got some extra muscle relaxers
