Mothers Let Go

Giving birth is indeed great 
and being proud of it, is natural....
but holding  on those lives is a sin. 
Mothers let go...

You are not their lives...
It's not yours either... it's theirs.
And you have your own no matter 
where you've reached in life ..
No matter what ...
the so much you have been doing for your kids...
Mothers do.

They are as much human species as you...
You won't stay to live with them..
You won't stay to live for them..
Or live their lives with them.
So let go...
Mothers should.

You had your chances;
You lived it or not.
You were successful or not.
You were happy or not.
They do not have to answer for this
Or bear it with you.
By binding you are distancing and
not making them any closer. 

So noble mothers be noble
and let them go.

Ducks Walk

Ducks Walk

Ducks walk
That’s what they do
It’s what they do when you‘re not there that’s scary
(Technically speaking they waddle but who cares)
Work occupies my every hour
Ducks can’t be tended to relentlessly 
When morning turns away, turns a corner on reality 
Ducks change their ways
They can’t be trusted
It starts with small things like the mail
They read it all but leave the bills
My checks went missing and then a sock
Rock formations in the kitchen said definitively
Something is wrong here and it’s not the fish
Naturally they left the dishes for my wife… to do
But absconded with my favorite watch
You know.  The one with Mickey
The waters become murkier with each crime
Ducks walk.  That’s what they do
Anyone can quack.  What’s complicated in that?
Listen.  Quack quack.  Was that so hard?
And I don’t even have a bill
Hey!  What happened to my car?

I Don'T Know What I'M Writing For

I don't know what I'm writing for,
didn't start to find the cure
or rewind the cord
to find a vision true and pure
started to express distress
regarded as a mental mess
a brief relief and gentle ease
unheard words found release
polluted air surrounding ceased
clues poured spare with each piece
and every layer had an underneath
each more gruelling full of grief
an Autumn Fall turning every leaf
finding fitted Lego bricks but no design
a puzzle with no box
random pieces hard to slot
gritty echoes from sickening times
pulled from the rubble stock of my decline
separate scenes on one timeline
separated by my own mind
people, places, a point in time,
spaced through thought naive and blind,
this string of knots is one combined
not many which have got intertwined
each scenario more crazy
unlikely yet more maybe
cuz answers without knowledge
grew confusion ever solid, dipstick
gas clouds so thick in places liquid
fused and never flowing
just floating never knowing
expelling as I wrote,
clearing horror shows,
which emotionally and mentally stoked
could have turned, forget and go,
but in agony the ink flowed,
as though my pen morphed the gas
covering up my past, until at last
the understanding is grasped
understood and let it pass,
but the years are empty,
I've vented free,
so i guess now i write reinventing me,
and who knows maybe eventually
pressing on, willing, adventurously
I began because you didn't listen to me

Premium Member Timeless Twilight

The jade moon no longer illustrates~
  poetry that illuminates synthetic flowers,
and the timeless trinkets of twilight,
refuse to rhyme halcyon hymns in twinkling hues.

Tonight, I sit in crippling confusion,
drawing fireflies across the onyx sky;
  suspended in painted illusion,
  searching for swirling pink diamonds.

Yet from the saffron silence of sakura in blossom,
  I find crystalline colors of butterfly bliss, 
though I’ve long been awaiting rosemary rain,
to emanate a balmy muse amidst inked pain.

Now this rustic heart aches to be,
within the amorous arms of amethyst dusk, 
there I’ll rise to the music of lotus love, 
be anything but a caged weaver of faded stars.


Premium Member The Dust On World's Eyes

THE DUST ON WORLD’S EYES. 

The earth  crying  of pains, the Sky’s  eyes running tears, complains of losing sight.  
Rolling in phases  the  destructions of man, 
The earth orbit sick of hearing more;
Civilized and uncivilized  laws destroyed  our values, as  religions incarcerated  the truth.
Humanity raining destructions;  hard on everything on the surface,
Things under the earth, are crying of volcano  damages   that’s spreading like roots of tree .
Scandal s got angry like madness snake; 
Targeting   figures and stars;  bitten  harder on men
Nations destroying each other,  leaders drawing sword of war and sanctions
Yes, ruling class are clashing, little sleep do they find.

Politics is  destroyed by scandals and corruptions, 
The umbrella of peace is broken , made crippled and stationed on wheelchair. 
Yes, peace made sick and hospitalized in sanction’s hand.
The strong  are Kneeling and begging  for waving ; 
the stronger spit fire of  more.
The more the strong isolated from the stronger, the more the confusion. 
Things fallen apart, allies gloaming  and head thinking.  
Unequal fairly is destroying the world,  unequal living has destroyed us
Weeding out  elements of unfairness   practices;  stands unrealistic but realistic.

There was  a World I met , a world of peace , a world of  hope and  a world of prosperity  
In that world, men are lovers of peace and women  are hold high.
There is a World to  leave behind, a world  of  disarray and chaos 
Where   existence looks inconvenient; 
 only the anointed of corruption have the best
in that world, nothing  left undestroyed.
Humans are sold like pieces of meat in the  market, children are homeless and the fear not to  born get worse.
Unequal currencies set ablaze the economy, leaving it disjointed  and sorrowful 
Everyone have sore of pains  unhealed ;  things that made  us one has tore  us apart.
A world where humans have no leader;  but,  leaders have leaders, 
All have destroyed the world

Money-Love

money-love, makes a whore of us all

           I think this ol' story might be yours

'makes me feel like them other freelance outlaws

           y'know this old story could be yours

                       --------

     promising a world to win or lose

   catch them unawares when they are young

get them drunk on desire, keep them on the run

       under the thumb, n' yet still so young

      money-love, makes a whore of us all

    I'm not above   the struggle of   money-love.

                     ---------

   slight of hand, the cheapest of tricks and

       interest to cash in on your prime 

    and woe betide, should them payments fall behind

   y'know this here story could be mine

        money-love, makes a whore of us all

    I still think this ol' story could be yours

                   -----------

       'want t' talk 'bout that what makes me sick

         I'm not above   the struggle of   money-love

Frustration

Frustration
By
Lionel Derbyshire

Convinced this is the poem
I dont want found
When a had been life
Is like a selection
Of random carrion.
At first by birth
I heard echo's
Of sweet expectations
A rose grows everyday
Impatience can make it unwilling
And frustration discolours the tone
When hope cheats .. it creates a fuse
But oceans always remain the same
And I fuss when I should be eager
My soul calls for determination
I say life lie's under oath
Yet it formed another blue sky
Let me shoot down the damm moon
And away with the sweet tune of the bird
I am offended and caged
When in my convenience
I blame everything ..
Frustration..
You are a boo.
I can't change the weather
Even if I wanted too.

He Does Not Love Me Anymore

he does not love me anymore, oh
heart you give me away
the expression of a broken heart
is permenantly fixed
across this face
my eyes
tell stories of the brokenhearted
for thousands of years
I mourn what could of been

he does not love me anymore,
it is such a shame
for my heart gives love away too freely
like a common whore


he does not love me anymore
oh heart, you must decist.
for the deep trench of pain and confusion seems to
fall for an eternity.
Its boundaries unknown to man
I do not wish to explore this pain
for 
I may never return
again

he does not love me anymore
the person I once was is no more.
He does not love me anymore, 
heart, you will make it through.
the shards of it
will
be picked away
gently by time's gentle embrace
for every moment there is it's place

he does not love me anymore.
and that is ok.

Sad Is His Lot, Who Has Not Been a Poet

To the twist of themes exploring art's beauty so plain
Is the precious jewel that unlock the hearts' blissful ears 
That listen up to the least of muse well explained 
Kicking raw the mood of handling pens passionately like spears 

But he who hasn't been a poet is ever lost
To the precious flow of great quill painted so raw  
It shall be an aegis aesthetic  appeal been too glossed 
In exquisite inks that wink lovely discourse of emotional  war 

Its influence would have been enough a good morning song
Born a bright mantra to journey with the whole day
And an elegant lullaby to toast him to sleep long
It's so painful it gets his heart heavy to weigh
