Alive, Alive Oh!
The best thing about waking up is not the coffee in our cup warming the cockles I'd impart from the bottom of our heart it's knowing we survived to see another day arrived no matter what may come our way as being late when we're done and gone is far too harsh to contemplate so smell the flavour savour the roast and of our time here on earth before...

Lies I never told, but never clarified
They with masks and scalpels rewatch the seconds I was given without consent. My breath hitches as warnings stillborn in my throat. At this moment, I am but a body opened for overdue answers no one asked for. A poet’s gift lies in the voice of Truth. No— A poet's gift is to lie, constantly, in lavender-gray syllables threaded through with near-Truth— The...

Premium Member Tomorrow will be too late
Employing absolute freedom innate, as the subject, the object and the means the triad of energies shapes our fate, with the light of Self veiled behind five screens, the densest being our organic form, God’s vital life breath enlivening dust, entwined with mind, conjuring a thought storm, bliss body and childlike heart that does trust, being then the hurdles we need to cross, to...

Too Little - Too Late
Not so much a lie with little truth to tell Not so much goodbye with greetings gone to hell Not so much romance with feelings dead or pawned Not so much to dream with sleep — bereft and gone (Bryn Mawr College: May, 2025) ...

It Was To Late Unless Otherwise
Warnings came over and over and over again To repent and come from all sins It was ignored, until it was too late The passing and non-repentance in the grave Unknown, only Jesus above If they repented on their last days at all Jesus is the judge in this world No Silver, Gold or even a Pearl Can save you. You're being told Be...

LATE NIGHTS
Late-night talks have always been the best. The love I have for you is priceless. I don’t want anyone but you; you have to be mine. I need those late-night conversations. I want to feel reconnected with you and ensure that this love will last forever. I need to know if this love is permanent....

The Late Michael Alldredge
He guest-starred on "The Jeffersons" and "Serpico". He also guest-starred on "The Bob Newhart Show". He starred in "The Sting II", "Iron Eagle" and other flicks.

This is late, and thus long!
Nihilism, write thirteen beautiful lines, the longest one in the merriam-webster Cosmos and cosmic, Lunar eclipse and Aurora Borealis, milky way and the interstellar Synecdoche, you and I are no good to linger longer with the charm in an alternative essay The round trip home is often the loneliest deadly, a painstaking pain, humble to tone down a possessive...

Letter That Came Too Late
I opened it like a wound unwrapping itself, the envelope soft from time, your name trembling in a handwriting I had learned to forget. You said sorry. In ink, not voice. In past tense. As if my years of silence were a thing you could fold into a paragraph. I had already buried you in the quiet way people bury the living, not with dirt, but with detachment. I built...

too late
do you think that it is a date? is it too late to clarify? is it too late to take? to take back the words I always would say? do you think that it is a date? watch horror movies over call? Is it too late, to tell you that I don't like horror? did you take that the wrong way? not in movies,...

Premium Member It's Not Too Late
No, it's not too late; It's n e v e r too late to make your wrongs right, to chase after dreams, to a p o l o g i z e. It's not too late to fall in love, to tell someone your true feelings... or to try again, as long as you have breath within... you. ...

Premium Member LATE IN THE EVENING
And I'm concerned, afraid, got the railroad crossing blues and the jazz that plays so low and desolation looms like the ghost of Christmas past/ And the band wraps up and it's time to go home but the blues is still crawling around inside my head like desolation and the lone watchman/on the peak is...
