Lived Poems - Poems about Lived

There once lived a woman made of Jell-O. She jiggled and wiggled as she walked. Invisible to most she was as clear as a window pane. She often wore her heart on her sleeve and ended the day with washed up colors, kind of like gelatin in hot water. You can only imagine...

I write because I need to It's what I have to do Put feelings down on paper Thoughts I have towards you It doesn't stop the longing That ever present ache But it helps to write them down because I know my love's not fake And if somebody reads this They'll know there lived a man Who loved a pretty Bluebird Who's middle name was...

I have travelled upon the earth and get lost in work I have painted the covers of the universe and mingle With animals in the dirt and have witness the bridges carried away in the sea and rough waves come chasing after me but I hoist myself upon big ships before the thunder rolls...

Where are you? I search but can’t find, Lost in the shadows, lost in my mind. How do I trace my way back to you? When the truth cuts deep and feels so true. In distant silent night, Shadowed memories haunt my mind. This house we built feels so cold, A home now lost, empty and old. Crushed by choices, burned by lies, Trapped...

(A reflective voice whispers) In the Dawn of a new feeling of Life, Maybe even at high school Did you embrace one of its golden rules To hold hands with someone you deemed so special Encouraged by first love's, sweet kiss For it to then carry you through, to meet the super cool, Twilight of your Life With the only...

I have felt at times a trace of love But was shown again that theirs was untrue. I have often tried to bury the past To find that it rarely stays inhumed. I...

Jesus lived and Jesus died, Jesus laughed and Jesus cried. Jesus loved and Jesus felt, Jesus stood and Jesus knelt. Jesus heard and Jesus thought, Jesus prayed and Jesus taught. Jesus healed and Jesus fed, Jesus preached and Jesus led. Jesus lived and Jesus died, Jesus is risen and He is alive. ...

Here We Are, Half a Century Lived Here we are, we’ve lived for half a century, We’ve fallen down, yet risen, it’s our destiny. We’ve laughed and cried, like butterflies in flight, Tasting life’s warmth and cold, both day and night. Those who dared approached and felt the burn, While the fearful lingered,...

LETTING LIFE BE NOT LIVED IN VAIN Know that the righteous life you’ve been living, Has not and could have never been lived in vain: You’ve trekked shadowed valleys of ole death; You’ve mastered many bridges of troubled waters; You’ve conquered so many Sisyphus-like rocks; And God has and never ever allowed you to fail:- Thus, in the deemed storms...

I have lived under towering skies, in the shadow of cold, silent laws, Never bowing beneath their absolute powers and their flaws, I sought not the blazing storms in their crystal goblets of might, For they feed on our turmoil, our ancestral plight. Authority, a heavy phantom, hidden control in the shade, A player on the world’s stage, a game...

Sylvia Plath, you will never fully be gone Your writing inspires others to throw feelings onto a page Forthright, honest, sad, angry, horrible, feelings Feelings that used to be hidden, You made outing emotion an art form Through your poetry Many now write of cutting Something new, you might not have thought of If you lived today, I imagine this would go into...

"Cats come in many kinds of personalities - the same as people do. Just be very grateful if a perfect one owns YOU." by Author A lot of cats in my life I’ve taken in. A silver Persian with green eyes was my first. She was lovely, but so aloof – to my chagrin. Some other cats had problems,...

The life lived I live next door to a street lamp full moon every night On an enormous heavenly canvas A Lone Star shine the rest have turned their back on earth light up a galaxy that is not of my concern. When I watch an ad for Martini Blanca on TV fine, by me I need not be smart, in a bar. I pity the...
