Limits Poems - Poems about Limits

The quiet whispers of a dream stir within, a gentle, persistent call. Doubts may loom, and shadows creep, But the heart knows its own truth, standing tall. For this much is clear, a fundamental plea: Dreams don't work unless you do, So if you put in the work, all your dreams can come true. It's in the effort, the learning,...

Personas have limits, boundaries veiled by the thin masquerade of pretense They whisper promises of identity, yet crack under pressure of reality's weight—poet She puts on her face while vaping smoke surrounds, Carefully paints fishtail eyes , studs, and crimson lips, satin scarfs around hug her hips Bindi adorned when with the Janes A sterling nose ring pierces...

I went to the river and drowned I went to the forest and screamed I went to the shelter nearby and cried I went to my head and asked: If anyone in this whole damned world would truly take you seriously? Seriously enough to understand or know? Acknowledgment is enough. So I knew I had to simply, Drown until I...

Twinkle twinkle little stars, please tell me wherever you are, sky blue, The cows turn their heads, as they stand in their beds, grass grew, The mop and the broom had to clean up a room, mushroom, Mom goes no-no, Dad goes boo-boo, the baby goes poo-poo karma, The bass and the trout went swimming about school's out....

We were at a small bar, the place only served some older regulars. An elderly guy in an old jean jacket was talkative, friendly. “What do girls learn at Yale?” He asked. “We’re taught things, like expressions, smiling, pomposity, snark, whatevering and stuff-stuff.” I bragged shamelessly. “Sure,” He chuckled, “sure - but it’s worth the money I suppose,” he gave me a toast.

So as a consequence, I think, I’m seeing things worsen. Seems decisions are born from...
