Premium Member When the Truth Broke in Two
I remember the first question I never had the courage to speak. I feared I would not receive an answer, and feared even more if I did. words were born from hunger, not from dreams. I had no dreams, only roads walked by others, and I clung to the edge of their shadows, like a child forbidden to ask where is the mother. Wisdom is a...

THAT NIGHT
"My eyes were never shut that night, As I pulled my soul in the concept of Magnetic field, I looked through the reality of poets, It can be anyone- an engineer, an artist or a man with a broken heart, since hearts are meant to broke so a soul can join them in pieces again, Though Love and Sorrow."...

Premium Member Silence Broke, Animals Spoke
Oh, God bless the beasts, that have no voice, that have no choice. We can't really see the world they see, or know what they truly want and feel, until they can talk to us in a proper conversation... "Ben, the two of us, need look no more. We've both found, what we were looking for!" "I...

I Broke My Own Heart
Under my covers We talked skin to skin Shaking and trembling Wondering when to begin With one little whisper And one little grin I entered heaven While knowing I sinned I’m not sure about you But my soul can’t pretend What started at hello For me never ends All the words for your ears Can only live in my pen It’s the passion that’s lacking It’s only calling...

A tall tree I did climb, on a bet of a dime. Baby Bear said it was funny, it was not for the big money. The limb broke what a crime....

Premium Member If it ain't broke, don't fit it
Why try to fix something that isn't broke?Why try to mend a structure that is fine. What is the point in fixing something that is fine. I don't understand why you keep messing with my mind. Am I not a perfect being that you made? What is not wrong with this blade? Why can't you...

They Said He'd Change
I held on like the world would end If I let go of the man I called a friend He broke me slow with gentle lies And wiped my tears while making me cry I made excuses I covered the scars Told myself love was meant to be hard They said he’d change and I believed Every promise I blindly received Nights were...

You broke me
Every day I get up and question my life The things you did to me and my body And now I feel unworthy. I feel it’s hard for others to love me Even harder for me to love myself I give up, it’s true I hope out there Somewhere You feel the pain that I do. I can’t even look at my...

You Broke My Heart and I Bloomed
You broke my heart, and I fell deep, Into the cracks where shadows sleep. The pain was sharp, the nights were long, Yet in that dark, I found my song. For in the ruins, a seed was sown, A quiet strength I’d never known. The pieces scattered on the floor Became the roots I’d grown toward. With every tear that stained my face, I...

You shattered my dream
2025.4.20 I was so excited. I was going on a trip, All the way to New South Wales, Sydney. Where I last visited in 2006. This time, I wanted to climb, On the Australia icon "Sydney Harbour bridge", Stamped my feet around the Rocks square, Then on the Sydney Opera House's steps. I had a choice either up north To Newcastle and Lake...

They Offer You Certainty As If It Is Not A Thing They Broke
Can you trust someone you have doubted in the past? It feels like asking a cracked mirror to show you the truth. Like setting your compass to a magnet and pretending the direction still means something. The apology might come, just in velvet, but still, you remember how cold the knife felt even before it...

The Rope Broke
The Rope Broke By: Aundrea Methvin Standing in the pouring rain His hood pulled up, the warmth barely affecting him As his sorrow engulfs him Tears streak down his cheeks He holds a single rose Two centuries have passed and still he mourns They had battled, hell, he still bore the scar from the freshly forged heated sword Yet he loved...

Premium Member Oak Soak Coke Folk Cloak Smoke Broke Bloke
A wizened boy who lived at seventy-two Oak Relaxed in his tub with a lemon salt soak Ate a curly pretzel, downed a harsh throat coke An honest child who sprang from truthful folk Dressed himself in a red and yellow super hero cloak Flew around New York City watching for dangerous smoke News of his heroism quickly readily broke Giving some...
