Best Think Twice Poems

Think twice this world can be such a wicked place my sweet child.
It's all coming back to me now, the memories we shared.
Goodbyes the saddest word, be careful in a world so wild.
You used to tell me I'm your angel and how much you cared.

It's...

Take a breath just pretend to light a cigarette
Mind your every thought so that you'll not regret
Avoid a tactless comment that might go south
Remember ~ a fly does not enter a closed mouth

She walks slowly down the street bent over her walker,
     Not looking at the people speeding past her so fast;
It's windy and cold and her legs are swollen and hurt,
           Is...

HERE is the heart you've broken

did you remember that you gave YOURS to me?
of course not, you don't remember at all
if you want it, it'll be...

Give me Your water and nourish me with serenity 
Renew my rejoicing spirits, wholesome like bread 
Wandering in the wilderness of unharmed vitality

We know about our ancestors
Playing monkey tricks are easy
Some may get fun out of those
But, we have evolved afar
Then, why should we go back to jungle?
Hey, Rising Sun! Enlight, the doomed souls

Don’t say the words I do, when the real truth is that I like you. 
Don’t place your feelings after, you will never get the happiness that really should matter.
Don’t play dumb and not listen to what your conscience is trying to prevent, cause your...

Think twice
Don’t throw the dice
To ever make your choice 
Look beyond the looks that entice
And the gestures that seem nice

Think twice
Fall not for vain words of spice 
Put your passion on ice
Waste it not on those lying lice
Soon you’ll hear your true-love’s voice
Saying ‘I do’...

This path they say is tough
though rough, some of `em say is bliss
those that have not seen, see they want to
those that have seen it all, teach they want to
if a man dies, will he live again?

Whatever you see
Whatever you know
Forgotten what will become
Life as you know it
Will disappear
Don’t you think twice?
The light doesn’t mean good
As dark doesn’t mean evil
You would never know
So don’t think twice
As far as you know
They can feel evil or bad
They still can change
Everyone needs
Another chance
They need...

Like fire we rise 'pon the breath of the dawn.
Eager and burning, our futures unclear.
Valiant as the lion, tender as the fawn.
Unpredictable embers with passions so near!

Yet, time is a line we are doomed to traverse.
We find ourselves marching melancholy roads,
flanked by bright crystal and...

Think Twice

Do you think I’m slipping?
Losing my memory with old age?
Do you think my better days are behind me?
That I should be written off the page?

Do you think I can’t see what’s going on?
Don’t think I can read between the lines?
Wasting away quietly into nonexistence
Think...

There was a time in years long past
We thought good taste would always last
Adults were neat in proper dress
Now all has changed, they look a mess.

Shorts cut so high we’re now aghast
Tops cut so low, breasts holding fast
Not much is really left to guess
You best...

When matters go astray,
I simply kneel down to pray,
Then I see things falling into place,
With no problems that I can trace…

Few people hurt with such ease,
As they lie in our heart without any lease,
We have one mouth and two ears,
Then why do we speak without...
