Bodyless Poems | Examples


Bodyless

For once i smile and dance as i look at my reflection in mirror

oh the clothes fit my body so nicley, i like it

i like it when i look at me and feel something thats not making me want to curl up and cry

I dance and sing whatever song is playing

i dont care what it is id like to dance and sing for a bit

my shirt flows so nicley along the movments of my body 

my jeans look so good on my legs as i dance

turns out I really can feel great 

then i sit down and try not to cry 

i know once my clothes are off ill cry and want to die

why cant i always look as nice as i do now?

I Ll Tell You

I saw you as one more adventure
Not knowing you're a great treasure
That all life Expect to find
I thought you weren't that special.
And today I understand that I'm a shadow
Bodyless and soulless Because you're not
And I lost the magic And valid I understood that you taught me What it's like to love
If I ever find you I'll tell you what you meant  to me.
The only person in this world That made me happy is you 
I'll tell you I love you and I will miss you that I can't
Being without you, Huero  I'll tell you I can't anymore
That my biggest mistake was not to fight harder 
It was the day I let you get away and go with your ex 
I'll ask you to come back but my life is over 
I learned that You are my blessing in this darkness...

Like An Asteroid

Burning rocks had 
a near miss. The 
questions splatter 
the blood-

to inspire and break 
you inside and out. 
Unbecoming, to end the 
relationship. The story?

begins of an introvert. 
The ungreen grass waits 
for your wet toes, 
to breathe again.

The blood-money was 
very high, after the? 
violent end of a  
blade run.

My pillow is soaked of 
a moonfall. The anguish 
of a bodyless grave 
was haunting.

Reflections In Amber

tickle foot touched (smile).
bird like nesting
in transience....your lips part....
leaving that indentedness 
(of place)-- unfolded,
disarray of jeans become
your shape....bodyless blue,
(untouchable) textures
reflected in amber

Endless Chatter

Do deaf people hear their thoughts in words?

Do blind folks dream in color?

Do desert dwellers dream of rain

and Eskimos of Summer?

If they're no cobs, who makes their webs?

What keeps huge ships afloat?

And don't you find it creepy, too
the sideways eyes of goats?

I'm sick of listening to myself!
That voice inside my head,
incessantly rehashing
the buried and the dead.

How do people meditate
and silence all their thoughts,
while mine's in constant chaos,
fighting battles long since lost.

I pray for peace and quiet,
but the talking just goes on
and sometimes throws in pictures
like a slide show all gone wrong.

I fear that even death won't stop it
and I will not be free,
bodyless but chattering
into eternity.

That would be Hell to be alone
with ME for company,
with nothing to distract my mind
like books or a TV.

No wonder people turn to drugs,
maybe that stops all the noise,
but one can't stay drugged up constantly,
can't survive in such a void.

I
   long 
         for 
             sleep.

The Stolen Generations

The tripping lights,the spinning sound,
At long last,the switch was found.

Complicated situations, feeling the vibrations,
Of the numbing sensation of the mind in control
Of this bodyless soul.

Being prodded and poked while being provoked,
My walls came tumbling down,
And I couldn't even make a sound.

This price i'm paying it doesn't seem right.
Is my weight worth gold for whats really being sold?
It's too late she cries, tossing and turning,
Hating her own demise.

Would she have been more wise
If she could have seen,
The hurt in these blue eyes,
The chances that could have been.

I never had a chance to tell my side of the story.
The moments that could have been,
Our crowning moment of glory.

My dreams are shattered, I feel battered and bruised.
I once felt welcomed, now I feel used.

With one last gasp of air, my soul slipped away,
My mummy had her abortion, on my 1st birthday.

Frozen Rose

No
no name
frozen rose
lost cause
and so simpleminded that it is
mindless

Quickstep my dear
that or Slow fox
no labdance
(my ***** is only for pissing)

I own 6 nights and 8 days
they are only mine
(and yours
and yours
and yours 
and yours)
need more
but the bank is closed 
and my cash is spent
on cigarettes, beer and uncomfortable shoes
made in China
by a heartless little girl
who humped the neighbour’s son
and then just ignored him
for no reason at all
he killed him self 
(who wouldn’t?)

Empty stone
frozen rose
lost cause
roadless journey
bodyless traveller
no need to hitchhike 
you will get picked up

Heartless little girl
no name
no face
Winter here I come (and where the f.... is my Igloo?)

Broken bones
happy smile
today
green meadow and tired back
will meet

these trees never give up
(but refuses to tell me how they manage).
