Premium Member Ignorance is a rhyme without a soul, an art fading into slow oblivion
Ignorance is a rhyme without a soul, an art fading into slow oblivion, like fallen tulips swirling through captive rays of a weary sun, amidst hot sighs tearing through the deafening silence of the evening, and they are more than the burning thorns of a phoenix rose moon, infused in scarlet elixirs of an enchanted dusk weaving its silent...

Echoes of Fading Light
In the cheer chat, where joy should unite, A ten-year-old girl causes drama day and night She calls me a brat, a jerk, selfish and ugly too, But she's the one acting out, it's true. She says she wants to push me off a cliff, Her words so harsh, they make my spirit stiff. As I debate my life's worth, feeling...

Premium Member Out of the mist of silence, strangers emerge, slowly fading into the midday light
Out of the mist of silence, strangers emerge, slowly fading into the midday light their steps rustle petals, and the flower-filled street stirs like an old dream. I let my thoughts drift, white, like a fluff of feather among tender shadows, I hear how the voices of passersby become the scent of apricots – then oblivion erases them. A...

Fading Stars
I saw the signs, but I was in denial I comforted myself, saying, "You would never do that," as I continued to address my ghosts But the weight was too much to carry I saw you disappear at the horizon, like the stars slowly fading into daylight I knew I wasn’t right for you, but all I wanted was simple affection My heart is too...

Fading Flower
Petals softly fall, A blush of rose now waning, Time's gentle, cruel hand, Steals the vibrant fleeting hue, Only memories remain. ©bfa040425 ...

Fading Voices
they sit by windows streaked with time watching days dissolve to gray their voices, once a steady chime, now whispers none will hear or stay names they spoke with love and pride have softened into air and dust letters sent, unanswered, dried memories fading, left to rust the hallway hums with hollow sound a clock that ticks but never calls footsteps pass, but none are...

Fading Hours
As months go by, swiftly they pass, Only to a grinding halt they would come to. Unearthing a nasty truth, buried under the dirt and grass, A heart to be held together by sheer hope. A heart so scarred, yet covered in a veil of brightness, Bright like the sun it was, shining so bright, All former traumas became buried...

FADING LADY
She's a ****, she's not loyal. I told her; you're only good for sex, Not good to keep. Don't let your beauty, leave you in deceit You ain't getting younger, but older. I ask her about Her body counts. She said, Just thirty plus. Thirty plus, still not taken? You gotta change your mentality, Or remain a sex tool or sex partner forever. She's always...

Fading Summer’s Bright Garden
The bright garden of summer fades, This life chills like November shades. Now I'm not worry for myself alone, I am worry for the generations unknown. In youth, I lived for fleeting days, I am slipping countless golden ways. My laughter now fades like drops in sand, Vanishing...

Premium Member Vibrant in fading light
Body ages but spirit remains young Animating vibrance of childhood years Now free from desires and also from fears We’ve become the sage about whom we sung We do admit we are somewhat senile Forgetfulness having become the norm Yet with the lamp of love lit, heart is warm Our soul stands erect, walking life’s last mile Our attitude is embrace and release By...

Fading
Our affection was once a radiant blaze, now fading The warmth that ignited our souls is now fading The moments we cherished have become echoes, fading The joy we once knew has turned to whispers, fading Our dialogues have become clumsy, fading The silence stretching between us grows heavier, fading The bond we...
