A Moment of Hope the Invisible Man 30

My mind like a...

Premium Member Life In Exile
When innocent got killed, others left,
Beyond the hills to unknown lands,
Escaping death that chased foot prints,
With nothing, just the empty hands.

Helpless *Pandits, became homeless,
Feet on ground and sky over head,
Horror and fear gripped their minds,
Their...

Time
Time

Her then gone, how time does fly,
Those times which you want to last.
Today soon, is yesterday,
What’s here now, is forever past.

Memories are hidden in thoughts,
Mere images of what took place.
We now look ahead for what’s...

We have the best of news, they said
As rain cascades upon the shed
The perfect time for you is now
A place where pain is not allowed

A harbor from your storm of pain
A place...

Trembling underneath
A mask once hid it all
I believe you hold the key
So I'll go and take my fall

I would shake, I'd cry in...

I Have Written a Poem
I have written a poem  

Bourne out of the deepest core of my reality 

A poem written out of fear 

Fear suffered out of pain 

Pain as a result of a bitter past

Forgive – scripture speaks
Silencing the bitter past, the resentments
The anger and doubt, the suffering

Forgive – God instructs
Delivering mercy, grace, compassion
Never judgement or sentence
No verdicts of imprisonment

Forgive – His word directs
Listen to the heart, the Holy...

My First Love
I'm running from the darkness that follows me everywhere I turn,
I stumble, and then the darkness engulfs me.
I'm shivering in the dark and replaying scenes of my dark and bitter past,
The past I don't want...

Not Anymore
NOT ANYMORE
Growing up was bitter-sweet
Strong and confident at first
Insecure in the middle
Shy and naïve; close to his prime
Afraid, naïve, and broken- to be expected
And the assertion goes on,
To him
Being broken and healed….
Yet it was hidden...

Skeleton In the Closet
I have great anxiety,
About the fear, 
That may arise, 
If you, I hear,

But even worse,
I fear the anger,
Since I, you left,
Just like a stranger,

And far from it,
Are you and I,
Yet you did leave,
Without a why,

Just...

A smile cast on winters day reveals warmer songs

Allow me to make this suggestion 
By all means you can oppose 
Carefully listen, boldly take these steps with me
Dotted lines, that once held our names
Easy the journey seemed, tough one it really was

In a Lonelin Essence Surrounding Me
A lonely time of self-loathing losses
I am all alone, all by myself
But I want for nothing
For u have in my life great wealth.

But I am lonely, & i long to seek
Someone elses companionship
In these times...

Woods of Old
From deep within the winter night
A voice shall wake and soar on high
With never but a single light
To shine upon its bitter cry. 

A voice, a heart, a face, a star
Shall roam above the woods...

Every Night

And summer days, they seem to fly
There's music in the words of love
This feeling's coming from above

And every day is just the same
I wake up and scream your name

Fighting God
Fighting God





The dearest of dears when He takes away,
There's nothing left to live in the lonely world for,
Faith in Him dies, as if He's into some foul play,
Depression knocks hardest at your door,

Fighting with God...

Premium Member Wrath of Time
In the arena of wrath, patience takes hold.
A silent predator, waiting to unfold.
With icy breath and a frozen heart,
Revenge embarks on its chilling art.

The thawed memories of a bitter past
Linger in the shadows, refusing to...

Forgiveness -Revised
At times one has to let bygones be bygone
When endless thoughts of pain
Become wrapped up and done
When inner peace has to settle in once again.

It is when the heart aims to be pure
Forcefully letting go...

Prayerful Praise
The Clementine gifts in 2009
Were symbolic
Of something alcoholic

Could be from the 'Grapes of Laugh'
Or maybe fermented from a bitter past-
Heaven knows

But one thing is clear
The taste that once set our teeth on edge
Is gone-no longer...
