Getting Over Poems - Poems about Getting Over

we know more now than we knew then . we were younger smiles came easy and memories were made like spun cotton candy and one pony carousels . there were fewer reasons to cry more seasons to fly and the red in red roses seemed never to fade away . it was easy to laugh and run into the forest golden with morning to lay for hours watching clouds and...

Disturbed by the interruptions He would be disrupted by my Skill Thrill of collaboration When ones partners are Determined and real In that self satisfaction If achieving a goal What's in it for me Ain't gonna work cause We are not in control Tallow shall disguise the Earthy taste of the ostrich and garlic and onions Shall compliment it's already beefy taste the mushrooms and wines shall Subdue the...

It’s been a year now since we were like family, We talk sometimes now, but are so far from how close we use to be, When I drive by your estate, the one I spent so many nights in, I think of when we were just two inseparable kids, It shouldn’t hurt this much to see you moving on, But...

I am always trying to put words into the mouth of mornings, speak over the quiet that descends at dusk when the world pauses to take a breath. It is my voice I hear echoing back in the wind and my fears that crawl the dark on those long nights. I make the world a reflection of me. I seem to get in the way and...

I hate that I let people waste my time. They'll clutter my head with busy chatter and I let them unload their garbage. They walk away without a clue that they have defecated on my peace. I keep thinking they'll get wise to it but they never do and still I say nothing but maybe just maybe today's the day... AP: Honorable Mention...

My phone died this week. I’ve ordered a new one— I’d like to say I’ve enjoyed the silence, just lo-fi music playing, slipping into a flow state. But I’d be lying. Only a handful of friends to tell. Enough to register the tragedy of going off-grid like it’s 1503— where I imagine I’d be decent at throwing logs on a fire, but useless at...

“Doo-doo, doo-doo,” we hear the beast coming. Music gets under our skin. The worst of attacks, narrated by the boat’s captain. Unsettling sink of the USS Indianapolis. Just below the hull, a giant life wanting to strike a blow. This boat a smaller target. Getting chummy, stomachs lurching. Baited by grimmer details. A solid blow to the vessel. All hands on deck...

It seems that I am getting old and grey, my body's also slowing down its pace. But, I've still much to do, and much to say. It seems to me that life is like a race, It starts off fast with youth upon your side. You swiftly run and barely leave a trace. It seems each day is like a rolling...

They say age is just a number, but its much more than that. Now everything I eat or drink just somehow turns to fat. I used to kick a soccer ball all over sunny fields of green but now I throw my knee out just pulling on my jeans . My auburn hair that hung in waves, long and full of...

It's your birthday my sunshine My most amazing and improving niece Absolutely beautiful Both in heart and body Whosoever meets or knows her Always experience genuine love Her tenderness is so contagious. Wherever she enters She always lights up the room You can never kill her vibes Because she never forced vibes She doesn't need the hype She's not...

It's amazing how much I thought I had healed. I thought I found safety and happiness, That I was moving past all the hurt from before. But it just snuck it's way into this home. Until every corner was wallpapered in hurt. Until entering every room felt like walking onto the firing line. "In the kitchen watch for him throwing...

Bathing beauty with her ducky umbrella Cruised the lake, expecting to meet a fella This did not happen, but she had a fine time For she was eating cookies and drinking wine No one noticed her, because of her age Women become invisible after twenty said a sage I think it’s horrible because twenty is so young But seriously, after twenty, women...
