Premium MemberLeaves Of Life Are Calling

"As the leaf of life sleeps upon my lips," I will see the "foliage of farewell." "When the soul-stars dream and die," I see red leaves covering the fall trees. "O fall, let this lore of love be the last," for I now see "I am the Eyes of Time." The green leaves must change colors for the fall, but "neither dusk nor dawn can delude me."

Pre trauma schism, entranced flames loathe split,
bosom wave from spouse clung to,

sleep... sweet soul of sun in f a l l hues, lost with ghost heart ~ as leaf of love frails... and I paint pandora's s t a r s in summer that never came...

Premium MemberEnough - CM

I used to lie out in the sun- my getting tan was so much fun. When summer ended, it still glowed, then stayed that way until it snowed. Fast forward now- it's shade for me! Mast my umbrella, one two three! Old skin inferred I know the score; told me, can't take it anymore!

(a simple breakup, in Senryus)

I said I’m “fine,” which
was absolutely true - just 
not where he’s concerned.

Our story ended,
a cancelled series without 
lesson or climax.

I was proud of us,
we ended things maturely, 
no one told the truth

He wasn’t in my 
life but somehow he never 
left my contact list
.

A song for this:
Only the lonely by the Motels


Premium MemberFarewell Dance - Triolet

Written: June 19, 2026, for a contest sponsored by Andrea Dietrich ************ I love to swirl with you tonight, to gasp the balm your soul holds dear. Under the moon's soft slate-toned light, I love to swirl with you tonight. Since my fleet youth dissolves in white, and dreams nurtured grow faint, un-clear— I love to swirl with you tonight, to gasp the balm your soul holds dear.

Premium MemberWarm And Cold

Lustrously exposed, save the lamp posts;
 How inviting...shadows of two
 wrapped in pearly silver--- 
a moving photograph in pastel colors 
  framing a moment's rendezvous 
as dusk filters the pavement 
riqht where bodies shimmer undercover :
 Trees wave at the moon for traces of bliss
  on a byway of sinuous motion, 
the silhouettes hazy vet lightly engaged 
   in malleable outlines when hours 
linger to wait for an affair's  finale
 past the radius of lamp posts ,
     the eerie gray from night's paean
   seeps the view, collapsing into bloodied glass...
A forlon figure stands alone
     
 ...while the tint of intimacy 
pours its last glow.

Premium MemberIt is for the best- separation

The river of love is dry, heart is dead,
music sepulchral, both had wept and said,
the door is locked and silence reigns within,
the battle is lost, nothing here to win.

tears no longer flow, and no reason to,
the birds fly past in silence as they go,
garden is desolate, roses have dried,
no remorse that the bond has been untied,

who can solve the riddle of broken heart,
where deep love and trust had once played a part,
the fading glimmer of setting evening,
darkness fills where once was new beginning.

No hope or wish to reorder days past,
the field has been scorched black and all is lost,
I walk in slow steps to life on my own,
memories live on, but I shall not mourn.

Premium MemberMist on the Glass

A heavy mist upon the glass, A specter of a love once known, The silvered shadows as they pass, In seeds of silence, softly sown. A haunting pulse, a romantic chill, A melody that drifts and sighs, Where every aching heart is still, Underneath the hollow skies. You are the echo, the breath, the ghost, A beautiful and vast unknown, The one the spirit craves the most, Upon the dark and starlit throne. In the afterglow, we fade away, A mystery the woods will keep, Where golden light and shadows play, While the weary forest seeks its sleep.

Premium MemberLeaving

So drink your beer
And drink your coffee
In the fear
of The Great Nothing                  (Henry Jamison - The Rains)

Could it be any worse
Stuck in reverse      
Let it all go to waste                   (Cold Play - Fix You)
 
Because love is patient                 ( Johnathan Ogden - Slow Down)

If you never try, you’ll never know    
That lights will guide you
And fix you                          (Cold Play - Fix You)

I’ve never tried the secret door
Scared of what I couldn’t keep
Though it could drown me
Even though I’ve no fear of heights        (Katie Melua - No Fear of Heights) 

So I made up my mind and left her        (Caribou - Hello Hammerheads))

Premium MemberThe Vigil

I just wanted you to know that I love you, I did my best to do what's right,

It took from me my ego, I gained long and sleepless nights,

I just want you to know I miss you, and I tried my very best,

But the world is old and broken, a toxic angry mess,

Someday I'll make a difference, because I refused to simply quit,

For everything that I have lost, my broken heart still fits,

I know you didn't leave me, you've simply gone ahead,

In truth, I wish that I had left, the toxic world instead,

I wouldn't quit tomorrow, and I couldn't quit tonight,

for every other one I saved, gave reason for this life.

I wasn't born so healthy,  I wasn't born to wealth,

I was born to go with god, and help those with no one else.

Premium Member-Farewell Pangie

The fire and flame diminished
Life's race ran...now finished

Walked through life's doors
Danced on earth's floor

The final door closed at the end
Farewell Pangie... our dear poetic friend!

Why am I angry?
I'm dead wrong for lying, Lord.
I must not love you
