Best Unwritten Poems

There you were - dancing,
unaware of the intense rain.
Despite grey clouds grimacing,
your radiant glamour enticed emotions.

Emeralds and sapphires shimmered
through those luminous eyes.
First glimpse of your warm smile,
saw suppressed symphonies resonate 
with each beat of my heart.  

Not all poetry is for everyone's eyes,
so we...

Rhythms of pulses echo in souls, augmenting tenor of love song,
Reminiscing in sanctuary of life, together they shared for long;
Yet, memories sadly clamor aloud, since the day she’s been gone,
Of nightmares that cruelly shattered, dreams of their avid dawn.

Her unwritten absence now perturbs in void...

Inside an inkwell, lives a fairy tale
A classic, filled with love and misery
Where," Once upon a time" has long set sail
And "happy ever after's" yet to be

It's plot, a knight, once schooled in chivalry
His quest for love, the dragons he has slain
From Crusades 'round the...

He told me to write a poem
About beauty, wind blowing
Hair tossing , dream making stunning
Gorgeousness of living
Beauty addicts and blind ambitions
Movie stars and historical happenings
Formal dresses, women in high heels with 
Faces meant to smile
That’s what poems should be about, he says, 
Your good at...

For long I have been an aimless vagabond
I strayed far, the world being enormously wide.
Traveling to lands foreign, I searched my fortune.
At the end, fed up with all that was alien,
And wishing to withdraw from the world’s bewildering stress,
Decided to set out in search of...

Some songs remain unwritten,
so many unsung.

Sometimes there are words,
but no background music

so I curse this refrain.

Unable to find the perfect blend
My art remains unappreciated,
my soul blames my spirit,
my spirit my heart,
my heart my mind,
yet my mind remains mute.

Too fatigued to fight,
constantly pondering

why do I let...

There is an unwritten process in the book of flatulence 
For when it is passed
Firstly, if there is a dog in the room
Naturally, it was the dog who did that blast 

Next in line are children
When an awful smell wafts by
Of course it's one of...

Not another phase in my life
Or another chapter to be closed
There won’t be more pain to erase or
Another story to be told
I won’t speak of memories
I’ll be living them daily 

Not another “that point in my life”
Or another “used to be us”
There won’t be an...

Unwritten Absence Poetry Contest              Sponsored by: Ink Empress
______________________________________________________________

In the absence of ink—in a nexus of poetic dreams,
Anathematized by disconsolate on nebulous beams,
Whispers of unwritten absence, inveigled by fate,
Decry solace...

She came into our lives unbidden, 
A pleasant surprise, 
Her open heart was never hidden
From her soulful eyes;

She won our hearts with her gentle love, 
Always filled with grace, 
Her time with us, a gift from above, 
Still holds a dear place;

When small, we had...

There will come a time, at any age
When I will no longer grace this page.
That’s when I will be out of rhyme.
At any age, there will come a time.

An unwritten absence, you see, to be exact.
I will leave everything on Soup intact.
The only difference, there...

I see it right there, the subtle changes, 
As you tuck those toes underneath your tights, 
Fighting behind silences and sickening sunrises, 
Contain yourself, you might cross a fire you can’t outcry, 
I can hardly see those eyes through the mirror, hollowing through like a...

Like the autumn weaves warmth
With hope and grace, 
Inspirations in temptations of laughing scarlet,
Blazing tangerine and glorious gold,
Soothing away the darkness as beautiful
Casts its shadow over my spirit,
A dream reflecting peace that rouses me to remember
Where there was a choice, reserved for joy,
Light was the...

My heart enfolded the hued horizon of dazzling dawn,
the yearning brush soaked the sunburst colors,
painted a Monet garden blooming with my love,
unfurled the facsimile of your floral face, 
adroitly adorned.

The luring luster of lilac rose lined your lips,
quivered with the cadence of the dancing dew.
As...

Lord you laid down your life for me
I am not worthy to even kiss your feet
Dusty words used on repeat seem weak
Unopened letters from heavy heart bleeds

I am so full of sin and selfishness 
How can I write you when I am 
Lost in the...
