Long Empty words Poems

As I spiral further down, my outer shell gets roughed up
by sticks and stones
until my body is disfigured beyond recognition
as if I'd been torn...

There is strength within you
So, why are you so scared of the dark?

Bang! Bang! Bang! 
The sound of gun shots echoing in the air
Shattering windows and, smashing glasses 
Sending people pouring out in the street
Gun shots penetrating the clouds 
With a message that is very loud

People are...

In the narrow margin between life and death,
I feel as I'm walking a tightrope - but balancing.
I'm a portrayal of metaphors, 
illuminating like spring's moon,
who sunk like winter sunset,
but arose like summer sunrise -
my last...

A sodden dreg with wooden leg is dancing for a dime,

to sacred psalms and other balms, all ticking with the time.

He’s 22, he’s almost through, he’s melted in his prime,

his bane is firm, the canker...

What has been done will be done
What will happen has already manifested,
What you know is part of the plan,
What you are and who you are,
Is an invention by perception, 
Designed for you as a representation,
What...

Mean spirited and conniving his manipulative voice  
Thunders around in my ears, sending mystified sound
parachuting in the atmosphere, "let things stay as they

the phone and...

Friends forever...what we pledged...
a pinkie promise combined with a tied knot
to say we'd never part...
Lovers for a few months...asked for her hand in marriage
well was said, never an attempt
but mutually she agreed, said yes with...

I felt his fingers bruising my flesh, tearing me till I bled onto him.
He made me taste it for him, I thought this would be the night I died.
Panic seized me anew when he settled...

I woke up at the break of dawn,
with the feeling that all hope is gone,
I was not sure where to begin,
but I was determined to win.

No dazzling stars,
no visible  moonlight,
no chirping birds, 
to tease...

But as she began, and to say it was her first...

You tricked me once and tricked me twice
There will not be a next ime
For I shall take your life.

You used to pull the strings
Played with me, made me dance to your tune
Now I want to...

Give me a break.
Stand there smiling, like it’s easy
As I bash my head against the wall
And the world is caving in on me
Through the blood in my eyes it’s hard to see
How much farther can...

My eyes have not grown too weak or dim
to ignore what they've long been seeing
pretenders who wear a mask of disguise
like a skier who's not proficient at skiing

Everyone who labels him/herself a 'poet'
thinks he's composed...

When was the last time I ate a meal? 
I lay in bed, contemplating what is real,
Crying myself to sleep, wanting to be done,
I want my last moment to finally come. 

My arms have been...

Little Blue Bird of rain.

Rain, rain go away
Little Blue Bird of Rain, needs to shine again
In her version the sun dried, up all her tears
Leaving hurtful rain inside the bird
Destructive past sudden cheers
Waking up to...

the weak, they fall in silence on the way
they're wounded by the words that people say
the strong, they keep on marching night and day
and for the fallen, they don't stop to pray

the Darwin theory plays...

Heart like stone
Skin like ice
Eyes deep as a cave
Hair that flows like a wave

You seem so empty
You are here in body
But not in soul
I want to wake up your passion
I want to get you out...

I always slipped your mind 
By Michelle Morris
17/11/2023

I would walk 10,000 miles
I would swim the ocean depths
I would climb the highest mountain
I would crawl and plead and beg

But, what would any of these things do?
Would...

I can't recall the day you left
 Empty words going west

~To The West Coast~

My love, my sweet love -- my soulmate
I will cherish our time, with the sun
My love, my friend, my lover
Today we part,...

The Scene: 
An explosion! 
From those picking.. limbs tear
cabbages and cucumbers  
combing children's hair
mixing with the backseat 
of a zealot's Mercedes Benz
the gunpowder,  smells of lamb, 
and cotton, all blend 
into a bitter,...

You wonder
If this state of being
Has brought me
All these sudden gains.

You wonder if my
Battle is pretend
And my willingness
To fight is really in vain.
That I’m vain.

A little miss MunchHausen
With her soaplike
Drama hand
Stuck to her forehead
Lying in...
