Best Timelove Poems


Time My Enemy

Time has become my greatest enemy
It drags on, an infernal grating on the nerve
Like a broken muffler, dragging around the curve 
While my love and I starve for each other’s company

Until time surrenders, I wait my love with bated breath
Watching time, which I have confounded for going by so slowly
For that hour, that minute, that second, when you will be mine only
When I shall pledge my love to you forever, until death

Once Upon A “Time”

I Could Have Stayed Home

The karmic wheel turned
to a world torn and burned
by war and lust and greed
and this Incarnations' need
to Love.

Tentatively, the teen reached out
(from the childs' abuse and doubt)
to the grown-up herd
and the curious word
said to be ... Love ...
which led to a merry-go-round
a wheel of names bound
by their own karmic games.

I could have stayed Home,
never come to wander and roam
an Earth of endless pain.
If not for the beauty of mountain and plain
and sunset shore, I'd go ...
but I'd leave a little dog behind
whose Love I do know.

So I will stay here long
amused at how I chose wrong
and left that Light called Home
far beyond this space
toward where my soul does race
to return to ... until another time ...
Or perhaps, to leave no more.

Premium Member Evening Star

To my love wherever you are
I pray you shine my Evening Star

Sometimes in life we lose our way
Fall into the trap of living yesterday

Our memories become all that we are
For we have not just fell we fell to far

It can affect the happy as well as the sad
Can’t measure good till you weigh out the bad

More we hurt the deeper we fall
Be still the darkness of it all

At times reflection is a winning game
Face the fear of admitting our shame

Know that after we process our yesterday
We will no longer have that price to pay

Once we confess the sins we have done
Darkness flees from the light of the Son

To my precious love wherever you are
Please shine brightly my Evening Star


Written to my wife while I was in Prison
and lost until we were looking through
some old letters.


Narwhalism

Of all the creatures I would love to be
The Narwhal is most preferred by me

So awesome, sweet, and adored by all
Swimming in the arctic without a care
Their beautiful tusk stands nine feet tall
Straight out of water, into the air

Their horn is an amazing, powerful device
Tusking other Narwhals with pleasant emotion
Content with frozen waters and ice
The most loving whale in the ocean

Sensing vibrations and predicting the weather
Conducting the Orca-stra and fighting crime
Wise and hungry, they all work together
As the greatest aquatic species of all time

So mystical and and wonderful, it's hard to believe
That creatures such as these actually exist
The foolish Unicorn-believers are deceived
Yet the reality of the Narwhal persists

For now, your love for Narwhals may not be perceived
But before long, your mind will be infected and free
Narwhalism is spreading and will soon be received,
With symptoms including overall happiness and glee

Believe in the Narwhal with all your heart
Your life will see no more torture or misery..

Of all the creatures I would love to be
The Narwhal is most preferred by me

Time Seems To Stand Still

Time seems to stand still,
when laying in our bed.
Is our love real,
or all in my head?

Time seems to stand still,
while looking into your eyes.
In the fields of daffodil,
us together is paradise!

Time seems to stand still,
when we're together alone.
Your kisses are such a thrill,
especially on the collarbone!

Time seems to stand still,
and our love rings true.
These intense emotions I feel,
can only come from you!!

The Long Walk

As we walk through life forget all the hard times,
we remember what we were taught, 
and how hard our parents fought,
for us to live the lives they couldn't ever imagine to have.

We walk through this world with a few good friends, 
a shelter, and a god given plan. 
to be the best we can, no matter how hard,
to make the right moves, as we walk through the dark.

As we walk through the trials of pain and defeat, 
we soon realize, it takes more to be beat,
we built up our guards, and made up the walls,
so what's stopping us, from moving on through it all. 

We walk through this life, with love in our hearts,
a notion of what love is, but never a real sense of how it starts,
we fight for our passions, others break down our walls,
we let everything go, just to give a person our open arms.

Because, as we go through this world,
all its hardships and trials,
we learned our ways, our manors,
and walked the long miles,
to get to a place, where we can finally lay down our heads,
open our hearts, stop our motionless hands,
and rest in the dark.


Thirty Seven

Awoke at 6:37 after hitting snooze
Thirty seven times with 
Thirty seven aches and pains
To thirty seven worn out bones
And as I washed my face for
Thirty seven seconds of cold water
I lifted my head to the mirror and noticed
3 forehead wrinkles and 7 zits….hmmmmm
I walk past the mirror and as I dress realize
The thirty seven dimples in my ass
Immediately retreating to the eliptical
For thirty seven minutes
I get a call from my mother reminding me
That thirty seven years ago, she became my mom
And I realize that I am thirty seven million times
Grateful of the thirty seven years of love 
I think about the thirty seven years ahead of me
And the more than thirty seven times I’ll examine
My wrinkles and remember they were born of 
Thirty seven years worth of smiles and tears
What a great day to be thirty seven
I believe I’ll celebrate with less than thirty seven
Glasses of wine and laugh at least thirty seven 
Times as I surround myself with those that love me
And luckily I’m so inlove and I can retreat to 
The arms of a handsomely wonderful man
And whisper about how awesome it is to be
Thirty seven and if he’s lucky
Theres something else
I may do thirty seven times

Them Two

Darlin will you look at those two.
Kinda reminds me, of me and you.
We’ve certainly put some years on since then.
But Daddy I still remember when.
Lord there’s so much they don’t know.
We can’t tell them, so we just have to let it show.
Oh and look at her face all a glow.
It’s a beautiful thing, to watch a young love grow.
It takes me back to when our love was new.
Two wild hearts, so young and true.
I gave you my heart and that’s where it was kept.
And it all started right there with that first step.
But it turned into an amazing journey over a thousand miles.
It’s true we’ve seen our share of trials.
And times when we’ve stumbled along the way.
But here we are, still here today.
And it’s so bittersweet, to let them go.
Although we have to I know.
I’m proud of them both, they did good.
By making the choices, I prayed they would.
I’m sure it won’t be long before they start down a path of their own.
And I’m thankful they won’t have to go alone, 
They’ll be alright, they have each other and they have us,
To point them on the way, show them love, honnor and trust.
To give them guidance when the road gets rough.
And we can only hope, when their roots are firmly in the ground.
That they too will know the happiness we’ve found.

Reminiscent Heart

There's a flower revival beyond my window pane,
Where velvet petals of fragrant rose remains.
Spring renewal spurns the colder freeze,
And casts love upon a floral breeze.

Pixies steal ribbons from a maiden’s room,
So her long loose tendrils catch nature’s bloom.
A green carpet of grass stretches beneath her feet,
While her beau makes her toes curl with kisses so sweet.

She pretends the world's a magic wonderland,
And fairies sprinkle dust to make love so grand.
Ah, for the splendor of this season in time,
When the youth feel giddy, but strong in their prime!

Oh! I long for those days when I was young,
And danced with pixies ’cause Spring had sprung.

Intrude

Life's standards, its conclude
how gospel vested interlude
drives promise to the wind,
my own extrude ~

As telling all the world
my love is true
and then to thy own ear exclude 
no gracious entity of faith so rude!

Would chance the day,
this then to call my mood
and privacies invade, not Heaven's brood
as nowhere else defined, still search as clued!

For it is Hell I share, without thy good
entwining time together, understood ~
that Heaven not be broken, with laws lewd
if not on Earth that then Thy love renewed!

And not in time away and not in viewed
disorder of love's claim, so misconstrued
is neither here nor there, is but fool's feud
the argument contained by my Art's hued!

And brought to center stage as empty stood
what moment can arrange, that thee include
              this aching heart's abridge ~
                 . . . without intrude!

Everything That Won'T Come Back

Do you know 
Where the wind blows 
How do you go
To where the wind blows

On accompany bound 
North Carolina found
Down the coast 
Out the window of a greyhound 
Day dreams 
Just won’t let me sleep sound

“Life’s a gamble 
At terrible odds
If it were a bet 
How would you take it” 
Up at the lighthouse
Lake Superior, I’m here
Skating across the ice
Minnesota’s lovely winter song
Downtown Duluth
Across the red bridge on my own

It was a five card draw
Cocaine in an empty mans straw
Little blind short
It was big blinds bluff
Inordinate of a pack of Newport’s
Fell in love waving goodbye at the airport

Welcome back home
Were you lost or alone
Because you’re no one 
Just as were when you  left 
Did you find your fun
Hitchhiking all by yourself
I made it back to peace 
On a coarse to no where 
Fresh out of  Love Joy, Georgia 

Do you know 
Where the wind blows
How do you go
To where the wind blows

Footsteps In the Sand

Footsteps in the sand
lovers' walking hand in hand
cool sea breezes, setting sun
two people walking now as one.

Waves lap ever gently round their feet
they try to remember, when did they meet?
Was it really ever so long ago?
Does one or the other even know?

A touch of gray here, a wrinkle there
but neither one of them seems to care
theirs is a love beyond body and face
a love that surpasses time and space.

This love they know is both true and strong
something they know will never go wrong
young lovers once more, footsteps in the sand
continue walking as one forever, hand in hand.

Premium Member Reminisce

I love to reminisce, but if the truth be told, 
I love to reminisce with people I don't know.

As Often As Anyone Else

How often do shadows cry
And if they do
This means like us
they feel to 
How often do whereabouts 
dispose of their founders
The emptied hands pivoted gruesome
To only expire before you lose them
This is why my eyes cry
Late night movies 
Midnight hours, how do you spend them
When letters feel “ no need to reply”
To where do we send them
A curious mind in eye sight
A figure taunted
The difference in people is 
“Don’t let your personality dye”
Flesh wounds appear the same
Determination’s found in change
Could you spare me some change
A course of new events
Hand prints on the face of cement
Try not to take life out of context 
“I’ll be home soon”
Read his final text
History is somewhat of a vex
Sort of a temporary fix
A day, a age, that some of us miss 
How do you become a person 
Or exhibit the features of everyday  people
Minus the wars, the battles, the ether 
Trouble awaits 
For those of us who refute 
Similar choices brought
About in this place of being
Bloggers are subsequent to ignorance
Just the lack of reading 
Express’s the true meaning of being for real
The objective to live and protect yourself 
Minus the kill
Sometimes glory comes as a steal 
Did you think love was beautiful
Black coffee, cigarette buds 
A raspy voice 
from a figurine with seductive cuticles 
A slice of pie
Banana’s and caramel 
On top of our lie
Apart of me is fiction
And some of you is true 
A journal 
Do you commit yourself to unfulfilled comments
Did you dust your hands off 
Wash your face 
and forget to accept the necessary compliments
If I’m shady
then you weren’t around 
Too far gone, dancing in the sun
Musically
you love the violin
Sympathetically 
you can’t sing without the gin
