Face To Face Poems - Poems about Face To Face

There are hours the mirror does not lie, And silence rings louder than bells in the sky. A whisper comes from the shadowed wall— “Remember?”—and you do. You recall it all. The smile you gave too late to save, The rose that wilted on a borrowed grave. Your name still floats in someone’s sigh— You left, and never said goodbye. Your hands are...

The quietness brings you back, and you remember the words that I say, The same faith you had to move on to confront the heartache and pain, The words unspoken that held you in bondage that tried to steal your worth, I released to put your heart back in place to be seen and not just heard, The moment...

I came face to face with time It was all sublime. Nothing was as it seemed For I thought “surely it must have been dreamed.” I was shown the past, present, and future. Then I heard the words, “are you ready for an adventure?” As I stood there looking into the face of time I heard bells begin to chime. He spoke, “What...

Wild words fly about, your arms are caught in tremors; We are a mirror radiating frustration, mulberry cheeks start to flash; Two are too crazy to stop and see what is true; Heartbeats heat up quick empty of understanding; A blowup of slang fireworks; Friends come together filled with such potent faith; Gently aggressive, this most tender touch of trust; Face to face no matter what....

We live in a technological time where magic is more plausible than not. All is possible in this paradigm; including self-expression and free thought. We've traveled to the bottom of the sea and stepped upon the surface of the moon. Now, we can pick ripe apples off a tree; and sell them overseas that afternoon. Today, we text or talk to anyone instantly, by...

Face to face Look into your eyes Tell you that I love you I'll wear no disguise Lie down next to me My fingers through your hair Caresses on your skin Secrets that we'll share Of how much we want more Unencumbered bliss Trace each other's bodies Sharing of a kiss Loving one another Vulnerable, shown Concerned about the other No longer me alone Carefully I'll handle Your heart,...

Around the corner from where I live alone, in an unfurnished studio apartment, there’s a shabby restaurant where I often sit nursing a cup of coffee. I asked Life one day, “Why me?” Sitting across from her and looking directly into her eyes, “Why did you come to be with me? I never wanted this. Now I’m distraught, You have given me...

I walked into the McGinty Funeral Home and saw this enormous sign “This funeral is by invitation only”. I stared at it. Should I go in? I know I was not invited. No one was around. Who to ask? The worst they could do is ask me to leave. I was her friend. I squared my shoulders and walked through the curtain. Her family was...

We always start across the room Yet end up side by side. I'd tell myself you're like the rest, But then I'd have to lie. Oftentimes I wonder: why you?-- Still young, finding your place. But maybe, like a mirror, through you I see myself face to face. Today, mid conversation, I saw it in your eyes-- A shift so subtle and so plain, Like lifting...

First, a phone that insistently rang, Soon, a voice that croakily sang, Then, a door that did as insistently bang And a steely chain that knew how to clang… Next, a calmly approaching unsmiling gang, Face to face with him, they should hang And relaxed the bastard watch against the pangs From their boa-constrictor-mimicking ropes with cobra’s fangs… And it was to be...

He talks to me Through words and deeds In small ideas With a sense of peace He talks to me As a twinkle in the eye A breath of hope Found in a happy smile He talks to me Through the sunshine The pitter patter of rain In the thunder’s roar He talks to me On the soft, gentle wind In the echo of the sea Through the flicker of...

Witch Ladra stuplified some but she petrified me. Luring me in with green molasses candy. Locked me in a cupboard, threw away the key. My only friend, her pet monkey named Three. Three told me stories of Ladra’s family tree. I shared my candy and he gave me brandy. They’d apparently came from the China Sea. Bringing along a dead man’s bandaged...

To mould my lips upon your lips, and lay my softness there, This is the dream I have of you, to show you how I care. To place my arms around you, surround you with my touch, This is the way I feel of you, to love you very much. To...
