Disappearance Poems

Premium MemberDisappearance

The ship sails out to the sea
From the beach the onlookers may spot
Leaning on the rails of the quay
How the ship soon turns to a dot
For the passengers looking back 
The shore soon becomes a line
In a back view from the deck
No details an eye can define
Soon the ship disappears from sight
And the shore disappears

Premium MemberSoup Disappearance Reason

My known, soothing landscapes,
grown from my own hues and shapes,
somehow vanquished their view.
Just one more sore blister of news
to aid my staid mind’s gist of confused.
My angered fist punched tears in their wake
before my shock shakily jot them on a list
of all my fear sought to restore propped.

Truth and I both awoke the first day

Premium MemberAppearance-Disappearance

From quantum whispers,
a universe awakens.
A birth in stellar nurseries,
where light ignites.

Appearance and disappearance,
a dance of creation,
a cosmic ballet,
everlasting and fleeting.

Invisible to our limited sight,
a mystery in swirling existence.
Permanent yet ephemeral,
a cosmic puzzle,
beyond our grasp.

What traces remain?
when the stars fade away?
when galaxies collapse?

Are they truly gone,
or merely transformed?
Hidden in spacetime’s weave,
in the universe’s memory.

Appearance and disappearance,
teachers

Premium MemberA Disappearance

Left so overwhelmed 
with all the tomfoolery;
Drowning in why try;
Operating in my lane,
never meant to set the pace;

Not made to follow, 
they go right as I turn left;
Throw in a white flag;
My heart eviscerated,
I’m stuck between fight or flight;

Thinking of the group 
that already forgot me;
A disappearance 
from them and an about face,
you just can’t

I’m,,,? Actually I don’t know anymore

It's that part of the year again,
How many times has this happened?
When did it start?
I can’t remember.
When my mind rages like a storm-tossed sea,
And I sit, helpless, drowning,
In waves that crash harder each time,
Every time believing it's my last,
Every time thinking I've survived,
But I’m just left sinking, gasping.

I am unchecked,
I urge myself to seek therapy,
To

Premium MemberMystery of May

I was an unfathomable mystery writer, producing novels for ardent readers,
Much like a mystery of vanishing pearly moon, as sun comes up to greet her.

My days were spent devising fresh plots, like edgy seas, seeking new shores,
Roving half of the scented world for another, as wafted flower seeds explore.

My books became so popular, because my

Disappearance

DISAPPEARANCE 


Light baptised my forsaken body
red whirling a glimmering ocean
Perseidon’s crystalline tears 
drip-dropped into mine 
manifesting oyster shells 

Odysseus smiled blinking 
compassion from diamond 
rays of Arcturus 
embalming my shoulders 
with his terrible travels

Silent my soulmate disappeared 
crawling onto an opposite bank 
into fields of chaffed wheat
towards abyss black 

She moulted into grains of rice

As the Moon Begins Its Disappearance

as the moon begins its disappearance
leaving silver caps atop the waves
soon becoming an illuminated path
i am denied to journey upon
knowing it is rising for you
i am held captive in the sorrow
that life has left us
more than an enchanting moon
more than a captivating gaze
more than an ocean of separation
a distance we will never close
yet my heart

You didn’t come home at sunset
Disappeared at the edge of twilight
I’d wait till the end of the lonely night
Follow your footprints on sands of time
to the dawn’s sunburst horizon to find you.

You Can a Spitting Fire Douse

When you a petty thief house,
Expect a dramatic disappearance of your blouse
And one other filmic vanishing and sure goodbye
With his waiting, believable alibi.
When  you all . webs  browse, 
Not against this holding a grouse,
You’ll definitely see
What shall make you feel at sea…

When you can’t from your hair extract a louse 
You might not
