Love Touches the Heart

It feels pleasantly sweet
On a journey to the stars,
When love touches the heart,
The thrill of joy starts with tears.

Seeing shadows of flames set on fire
Touching emotions beyond surprise,
Realism takes the cloudy images higher
When love does everything time denies.
 
Even Empathy of the smallest act
Reach for the stars touching many lives,
Transforming energy beyond magic
Into the waiting path of another sunrise.
 
Faith gives a wonderful glimpse of heaven,
To dream about paradise perpetually, 
When the glory of challenge takes place within
We find eternal depth in hope for sanctity.

If we believe life holds endless possibilities,
Even though we have been hurt before,
Knowing love more with all the complexities 
Make logical lights in our hearts burn brighter.


Premium Member My Love She'D Lent

~ MY LOVE SHE'D LENT ~

I followed her where'er she went
Lured onward by her fragrant scent

She clasped his hand, a handsome gent
How could she know my love she'd lent

I died one thousand deaths inside
Choked back my tears with wounded pride

How long such anguish could I bear
My heart asunder to let tear

The hour had come to make my move
My love for her I had to prove

Unsteady I, and quite unsure
Just how to break the news to her --

My tongue was still despite I tried
'To ask her this: 'Please be my bride.'

Premium Member The Departed Son

I love you much, 
Billy Patrick, 
And I miss you so much more! 

I hope you're resting peacefully, 
I'll see you soon at Heaven’s door!

Until we reunite, my son, 
Keep an eye from above on your so
Help him along his way!

You left him way too soon,
But that was God’s design
Even though you didn’t want it that way.

Let Eoin feel you still exist with his heart, 
He won't judge you
Coming eternally from inside.

That, you never intended on, 
Leaving him so soon
From the way that you departed.

But, things happen so unexpectantly.
It was a state of confusion 
That took me to the illusion
That you were still here the whole time. 

It’s time that I let you go, 
My son
Rest peacefully
Smile, I’ll see you on the inside.

RIP., William Darnell Jr

Premium Member Fragility of Fate

Upon my pilgrimage yearning for love.
I found myself surrounded by a plethora of petals.

Day and night I searched for a fragrance.
An aroma that would lead to you.

As twilight dimmed clementine horizons,
there you were,
glistening in the moonlight.

Your scent seduced my senses,
my heart became a willing admirer.

Something awoke that day,
forgotten emotions suppressed
by fate's injustices, were reborn,
illuminated like the blazing sun.

Yet such is the fragility of fate -
as sins from the heavens poured,
forming a turbulent tempest,
you wilted, and I was unable to save you.

In the sadness of silence,
I watched as your petals floated away

so I waited, 
hoping the winds would take me too

but I'm still here -
Isolated - shivering, soaking in misery,
without a petal to call my own.

Premium Member A Better Fate

Unrequited love haunts
both fantasies and dreams.
And you are left struggling
to stifle silent screams.

All hearts crave affection:
denied, they die inside.
And like a puppeteer,
lust manipulates pride.

Fate warps reality:
until love drifts off course.
And salvageable dreams,
are scuttled by remorse.

Life's explanations fail,
expectations of youth.
And behind hidden tears,
lies the elusive truth.

You feel inadequate;
unsure if you can cope.
For life is rife with fears
that can overwhelm Hope.

Stung by rejection, love
tends to morph into hate.
But, in time, you'll forget
and choose a better fate.

Breathing droplets, a nail in the coffin.
Here lies the fabric of hopes and dreams.
I need her.
But what do I need her for, I wonder?
I can’t rewrite the history of my heart.

One sided mirrors, a headless coin.
Hearts ablaze, weapons high.
March into battle, afraid.
Quicksand amongst a graveyard of flowers.

Frozen water on The River Styx.
Look at what you’ve wrought.
Until your heart is truly freed, 
you will be enslaved by thought alone.

I can’t see the end of the horizon.
Her hand is out of reach.
Why can’t she see it?
My intangible soul claims another pair of eyes.

Red, yellow, and white roses adjacent to worms.
As the day dwindles into night, an awful truth dawns.
In the mist of the icy purple fog,
the blooming dies with the dying light.
Arise, my black rose.

It’s not possible,
King Hades’ prophecy is the law.
Immobile in the snow, my skin peels.
As she walks centuries away from where I stand,
I have no choice but to collapse into the roots.

Shes the Reason the Barstools Still Around

Here I sit with, my mind, closing in...
On a memr’y, I’ve tried, to escape...
I drink everyday, try’n to turn the page
But it keeps on, getting replayed

She’s the reason the barstool’s still around
It’s like she put, my heart, into a lost and found 
No one is looking, for a heart that’s torn out
She’s the reason the barstool’s still around 

I know, I’m not, the first man...
To wonder, where love goes, when it dies...
When goodbye’s the last word, that you hear...
It’s too late, so why even try....

She’s the reason the barstool’s still around
It’s like she put, my heart, into a lost and found 
No one is looking, for a heart that’s torn out
She’s the reason the barstool’s still around

I’ve drank my sorrows worth of whiskey
And the beer makes, this hollow chest feel fine...
I just wish she had thought things over
As I sit here fearing closing time

I drove me to drink
But I can’t make it home
I dial up her number
Then hang up the phone

If you wonder why most men
Precede women into the ground
Well she’s the reason the barstool’s still around

Love Me None

love me none

I reserve a table for two for a stupid reason.  
I am waiting for somebody to return.

Your empty chair inside a deafening resto,
I’m not sure if I’ll ever see your shadow once more.

And I accidentally drop my glass of whiskey,
It hurts fine in my bone; slowly breaks me.
Your memories live in me; it haunts me gravely.

The golden couple ring that we used to dream
turns into a grief-stricken fantasy in my mind.
The piece of cake that we shared on the bed
was too sweet to savor; now tasteless on your tongue.

Your sultry kiss in the cold breeze dawn,
November will end soon; I will miss you more.
This love was once your madhouse,
Jokes sealing my fate; I’m the one being played now.

Ever dear, do you think of me too?
Your friends might not like me now,
I bet you want their attention too.
Just like how I gave everything,
It never meant something to you.

“Lei, are you ready? I will now shut the door”.
You never let me in; so you let me go.
Sometimes I just don’t know where is this going?
Can I just easily forget the memories that keep on coming?

Oh, you’re such a perfectly lovely little man!
“What a waste?” they said.
I’ve painted the one to be blamed.
But don’t ever tear me again.
This love has gotten me deep in my soul.

And I will drink the last jug of ache while I can
I will be brave to move forward; “you’re the man!”
We deserve to be happy; I hope you find you’re the one
But I’ll never forget that once…

You loved me

None.

HAPPY WOMAN DIVORCEE
{'answer back to Happy Man Divorcee'}

Now  listen here brother
You used to be my husband
But you spend more time,
With your boyz and your mother
Now it's too bad we couldn't
Make it till death do use part
But alas remember it was you who cheated
You're the one who broke OUR hearts
So you lawyer-ed up
I got the defense and it's four-down
You were and are shady
Got me a good lawyer lady
By the name of 'Shawn Chapman-Holley'
And boy she's gonna git all your money
Yeah, yeah your rich
But I ain't gonna regret
Gettin all your change
Cause you won't change
When I'm done with you
You gonna pay them dues
You don't owe me nothing
But when I'm through ain't gonna own
Much of somethings
Yeah, yeah you were all that
Making 13 thousand an hour
CEO and in full control
You said in your alibi
You had something in your eye
That is why you strayed
Well like that dog
That's what's you are
And honey you can keep the CAT
Cause when I'm done with you
It's me you should have choose
CAUSE ANY WAY YA WEREN'T ALL THAT
So I hope you enjoy this goodbye pie
I know your favorite dish
Hope ya get diarrhea
You should have know better lookin, 
in my diary of a mad black woman 
for all those's haters, wife abusers, cheaters and losers

Smh

Can we just start again 
Go back in time
Go back to when

You were happy and I liked u
I was happy and u liked me
Now we both hate everything
Only thing we share's our misery

The love lost between us could fill up an ocean
Haven't eaten in days 
Too full of emotion

I still remember when you were my best friend
Now I'm trying to think like when in the heck did that end?

Messed up how these things just happen ain't it?
Neither of us remember so both of us just paint it

And my version's different from your's
Well of course.....

It all boils down to perspective
You are you and I am me
We are not a collective

So I am here and u are there
Why can't we just meet anywhere

It doesn't have to be the middle 
I'll give a lot if u give a little

This sucks so much and you're so far away
I can't seem to reach u no matter what I say

I'm so sorry that whatever's wrong with me
Messed this all up
I wish that u could know 
Wish that u could see

That I love u and I miss you
That I'm dying just to kiss you

Not like how we kiss now
But like how we kissed then

Back when I was your love
Back when I was your friend........
