Instance Poems | Examples

About the doors of our hearts

I opened the door to my heart
and had let it speak without a fence.

If you did close the door to your heart
"Do not worry", I give you that assurance.

Just be a keeper of the trust
by not using
any of our free and fiery conversations
to suddenly break my heart and the world
in an instance.

It was over

How a caring and kind gentleman,
Changed into an indifferent and cold blooded in a short instance.
Why was he so mean to me,
Can't keep the simple fun loving friendship,
His relationship was not everything I need.
Yes, he infected me with his poison affections,
But, he could not destroy me with his treatments. 

I wished I knew what has happened to my kind and intelligent friend.
I did not know why the friendship has ended, 
Have I done something wrong to cause it.
Despite what had happened to our friendship,
However simple, intense, bitter sweet and short lived.
I treasures the time we were together.
I still remebered the time I knew what happiness was.

For instance

After may be the advent of democracy war could grunt
   or groan, raising it's smokes or names for instance.
 Once more again it may not be the only thing so harking
   to show,
  when like already new diseases are found everyday
   everywhere here wew gingering further to a gloom
  grotesque.
   Nigeria is under intranet humor emergency:
  Maybe a cool war to see the world now through itself,
    maybe a cool war to welcome the something whole   
  heatedly,
   maybe a cool war to enjoy a thing of clit and clat.
   Why like democracy is also the government of these
   machines, they are cool but on me- thought noses,
   water is  nature and fish and mermaid and stone 
    and a lot more?.

In An Instance I'm Gone

In an instance I am gone
It is replayed on a loop
Mostly for family
Sometimes for friends
Definitely for exes
It is not always personal
It's random
But sometimes it feels urgent
To avoid pain
Even though pain is inevitable 

It is something I can't outrun
But I still feel liberated
Absent from atonement
I only fear for the future
That I will be standing alone
Perhaps standing alone is for 
my sanity
Some may disavow
Still I love
And still I disappear
With unwavering loyalty
I hope you take me with openness
I hope your memories nurses 
Because in an instance I am gone

Keeping Constance At a Distance

Mark gave his honest Instance
Of the very circumstance
In which men kept their distance
From Next-Door Neighbor Constance
Anchoring it in Mischance,
All Adams to take no chance,
As An Embittered Constance
Had thrice shot three from near distance,
Their mouths gaping in Askance, 
Even as their hit bodies did a funny dance …

You mark All Adams, An Embittered Constance 
After ill-luck in near distance
Is something to mourn like mischance!

Last Instance

for whom thus fulfilled
      all dummy justice of men
       divine justice then !

Life and Death In An Instance of Time

The flash of the light
The bang of the sound
The body and bullet caught in an instance of time
The thud on the ground
The smoke disappears into the cold, dead air as does the soul of your life.

The smile in your eyes
The romance in your heart
The sorrows of your mind
The joys of your life
Stripped away by one bullet from my gun, by the sad insanity of our kind.

In this madness of time
In this weird game of life
You lose on this day with your life
I live to see the next fight.

For Instance

Or we transform
          the world at once
          or we must
          abandon  it
          for instance

Prevent Instance

Prevent Instance

What we will need is a preclusion,
Which will always prevent effusion,
And left out,
Without a doubt,
So we can avoid all the confusion.

The Instance Called Love

Have you ever overcome a distance?
With your cell phone you get voice assistance,
With your cell you get only to listen,
But I know of an instance…

Say you are aware of right now,
Present the unknowing with a how,
Here and over there is together somehow,
It’s this instance that matters to us and deserves a bow,

when I smile unknowingly why,
Or the time I laughed all night,
Remember the comfortable feeling u bring?
How are u aware of this secret to cause me so much grin?

This instance I call it love,
Unaware of why we strive to hear one another,
Or to await your appearance online or other,
Right now in this instance it feels like none other.

Treasure what lies in front of you,
Dreams are right now for you.
Truth is what one feels from you.
It’s an instance from me to you.

Instance

Being becomes
As instance sums


Watch what you hear
As thoughts appear


Enter the act
Where tact seeds pact


Be boldly clear
To suspend fear


Express your stay
With poignant play


Apply faith well
To live and tell


Sculpt tints of hope
That bring fine scope


Live lovely quest
As grace funds zest


Being now starts
Here with true heart

The Instance of Never

I could not bear this war between logic and love,
But remembering her face once again levitates my mind afloat,
Into the heavens my mind gracefully flies like a gleeful little dove,
And there I see reality once gain like a vast bottomless moat

I can never get across it,
For I am not worthy of the maiden that lies protected inside, 
As her beauty's like a fire that is eternally lit,
To end my whole heart forcing it to burn and divide

Into despair and sorrow I hesitantly go,
Each passing night they both give me the beautiful dreams,
Dreams of her fair kind wonderful soul that I know, 
A soul I can never share a life with, it seems.

Clutching This Instance

If ever I had two hours with you… or three,
the vacancy of this night and lulled
shores would be refilled with the gushing
of frosted air on our reveries past;
the multitude of amiable stars bestowing
a hush of surrender... raged midnights ending
into fresh  mornings backed by our
theme song replayed.
Then, to recall the sevens and nines of time
cutting our names into crumpled paper: a departure
of hearts traveling in different territories.

We inched away,
not because of lack for vows marked in deepest
sands. But… by fate’s desire to shelter you in
a faraway place, while I... I burned skies
through the pain and beauty
the long distance of regrets had claimed.
If and when we unite again, two or three hours
by God's grace, oh the fluttering of a thousand
fearless thoughts would not be enough to say you were
the branch that got away, and I was your last rose
that lost its stem.
Perhaps, now is the moment to clutch the moment?

At Eyes Instance

beauty's sense varies
                                            from man to man with choices
                                                   in flowers' bucket

                                                  God gifted flowers
                                        displayed with size and colors
                                                at eyes' true instance

In An Instance

in an instance, waves
from the tsumani washed their 
lives into pieces
