Long Choke up Poems

The tub is my kettle and I’m busy dicing 
My tears will be the icing on this cake 
This knife holds no reason to be fake
And if I will it, it will surely take
Take my...

Haven’t been able to move from this bed
Only just turned on my room light at 6 p.m.
All these tears pulled out by this sinking feeling
I feel like I know you, but do I really?
Moved your...

Peace or violence, with humans you never know,
When love will sprout or when seeds of hatred will be sown,
When in humanity & compassion people may find satiety,
Or when the lust to kill will choke up...

Tears are rising,
Sun is setting,
That picture of us at your wedding,
Staring at me in the face,
Reminding me of what we once had.
You look at me,
But then turn away,
I know you are angry,
And I know that...

On the rainy days I wind gently through the streets
Trying desperately to greet every new person I should meet
My demeanor screams of defeat 
Just not the best person in this world to meet 
But if...

With a head full of sand
from sinking in quicksand
I say things some might not approve of
They will know when I say the words
not to meant reach their ears
I have stared once again in crystal
and saw...

So many things I want to tell you my Dad
But I choke up in tears feeling awfully sad,
I grew-up so fast since the day you died
Pledging urgently to do well as tears dried.

Don't recall listening...

i awake to the sound of my broken heartbeat

the feeling of a struggling survivor tring to maintain

my grip on reality is slowly easing up

So helpless are we against this disease,
That’s robbing your mind with so much ease,
It’s painful to watch you slipping away,
A little bit more with each passing day.

You’ve been my rock for 40 years,
That very thought...

Ah! The Golden Years of Hollywood
And those old black and white movies
Some were cinematic disasters
But some you could call quite groovy

Even now, my heart skips a beat
When one appears on the late night screen
I choke...

I am a dandelion and my world is a big meadow.
I'm growing on a cliff-side, I like to live on the edge.
Just blooming away, soaking up the sunlight beaming at me.
Needing a purpose so I...

Mental alerts send shocking images,
Of an hourglass void of it's sand.
I glance down at my watch in confusion,
And see it's missing every hand.

Realization begins to dawn on me,
And I stagger under vicious blows.
I wonder if...

For this, my darling, I swear you're to blame,
Gave you a last chance and you didn't even notice,
I turn my back on the magic, already started to fade,
I take back all the kisses, the embraces...

sweet seashell queen
just had surgery to remove a tumor off her brain stem
today she celebrates her 6th BirthDay
whatever she wants is the law of our world
i almost choke up thinking about how brave she was

i look at the walls around me
bootleg-moonshine shadows dancing
a waltz atop nighttide's stage
yet i am empty of my own emotion
alone, covered in reflections of us.

i still smell your scent
linger in every deep breath
within this humid...

When I imagined what it would
be like to be a writer, 
I saw myself hunched over a 
typewriter with bourbon on the
rocks sweating a ring onto my desk. 

I could smell the ink on my...

When I first met you,
my hope and aspirations rekindle
as I approached you,
my heart went into captivity,
which made my body to be full of activity,
your soothing voice was reassuring,
which made me feel more alluring,
then later my...

Ineptness / Ineptitude

The pen has become the tongue from which I speak.
Ink, the saliva, the driving force behind my words.

Paper, the wings upon which they take flight,
uplifting my thoughts, elevating my ideas.

Thoughts and ideas that...

I stand on the plate with the sun in my eyes
the pitcher is ready, a fastball he flies
I swing just as hard as I possibly can
love says "strike one" as I try it again

Hey boy, I’m crushing on you;
Why is that so hard to admit to?

You once said you were under my skin,
I guess it’s time to tell you I’ve fallen;

I hear your voice when I’m all alone...

Washed up at sea,
It’s hard to breathe,
It’s hard to think,

Mouth filled with salt,
I can’t speak,
I struggle but remain weak,

The sun in my eyes,
I survived
I’m alive,

Air sweeps through my hair,
Sand against my bare skin,
Gasps for air...

Their smiles glow
their children dance
and their dogs bark with light
n their eyes.

Before the morning`s gaze
their trees whisper, their birds sing
and air around their wives fondle
like the first of February.

They imagine where they would be
and it...
