Platonic Feelings

There's no doubt
you found out
the many affairs I hid
in a slick way...
they are exposed
and can't be ignored
they surely hurt!

Ah! Platonic feelings do much harm,
they don't wake us up with an alarm;
sweet are the adventures we pursue,
we won't stop 'till reality makes us blue! 

I can't stand jealous eyes
when they stare so angrily;
nothing I do can stop them now:
so sorry that my commitment failed,
so fake were the words I whispered!
I betrayed the one I adored madly,
nothing I say can change tomorrow,
I have to pay and go away!

Time is passing slowly,
I gave up on true love for folly,
joy is not real happiness,
it doesn't last an eternity;
it's not found in strangers arms:
it's an escape for cheating hearts!

Do you have a wish for yourself?
Do you long for devotion and honesty?
Then, give up all platonic feelings
that do much harm constantly;
how lonely is the one who stares
at your charming picture on the shelf!

Plain Clothed Ideas

in to the forever one finds the cure for the hurt , a plain of conscience , may be a dream  , or the thought of the day , unlock it , or into the forever it will stay,

who is the i in me , does any one ever fathom this quaint reality , in a mirror do you see me i or you , will the answer be enough , may be no answer is enough, and so the truth tells lies , and the lies tell truths 

in a dark place shadows will be your friends , in the light of day friends can fade away like the shadows of the night , separation will fuel the honor of friendships, keep the those shadows at bay, there is laughter in that honor, ah good times 

one might wish in the dreams they have , nightmares might keep them there , the struggle is not to awaken the plight is which one suits you best , the show will end if the curtain falls , eyes open with applause 

love and kindness is caring and wellness , its a matter of heart , its a matter of desire , love is platonic, love is romance , in the scheme of life poetic passion , will partner you , with one true other half

there is a quiet place , it  lies inside ones mind , all emotions play there own games and that once quiet place is sullied by the loudness of these games , the battle with in , the solace with in , the enjoyment with in , the whispers of grandeur wins , a happy smile is the final check mate

FOREVER'   IN  LOVE

         Our Love  sometimes Factual:
                                    Hold me tight, touch my face:
                                    Come close closer to embrace.
                                   Our eager lips to press.
                        
        Our Love  sometimes Spiritual :
                                  Pristine platonic but blind
                                  Cherished in abyss of mind.
                                   Solely two souls are entwined.

       Our Love sometimes Whimsical :
                                 Drifting in daydream and muse
                                 to amuse or to refuse
                                and attempting to confuse.
     
     Our Love sometimes  Musical :
                                    Ardent ardor starts prelude
                                     Romance roams in interlude. 
                                      Drinking desires to conclude.

      Our Love sometimes Virtual :
                                Maintain social distance
                                Never close even perchance.
                                Through video call have glance.
                    
     When Love sometimes Practical :
                                   Sweetheart not to let apart
                                    Longing lust for love to last
                                    On marital bond, have trust.
                                       
         Our Love flows forever
         always in fervent fervour.

Premium Member Please, respect a life

Respect the life

Respect the life, oh my life! Respect my life! Oh my platonic exlove!
You know, how I loved you. I became decadent and lost. You saw all
You don’t know, how I loved you. Satan is crying, lifted me off the ground

My life is demonic, I am a hell rider on Earth, without a life, alone in life
My love, you dropped my love, you trapped my love, but my heart beating
No owner of my heart, but he is not yours, you had enough time. Loved you

Please, respect a life. A life, that loved you. Please, don't put more poison…
… into my life of way…, … and way of life…
Emma, please. I ask you kindly and nicely. Please, please. Still loving you
Let me step out from your memory; my life wants to live his life. He loved you

Beautiful linguist, I needed to work for you. More than two years passed by you
My memory still feels you, he is a very big heavy burden, and he still lives in me
Everything is your mistake, your psychologists drove you. The result is yours. Eat it.

I needed just a normal life. A simple, but great life. A farm, a house, a family, children, and a wife.
Yes. This was my life object. Lifegoal. But nothing is realized in my life because you killed my life.
You and your psychologists' friends destroyed my life. Hmm. But I am still alive. Youth is my life.

Someone is coming
Goodbye

Love and Lust

Show me a man, not engulfed in lust before love
Nor in the beginning craved her enchanting groove
Then I will show you a liar
As the burning wools, enliven the pride of a cooking stove
So inevitably depends on lust, your holy love
When your heart melt by her gracious sight
From his mantle a sweet seltzer you sip tonight
And both sirens screams with passion
In the end love is praised and lust, blamed
As with negativity, lust is framed
Oh! Dear lust, I shan't merry without you, nor ever love
Even a platonic desire can't undermine your fire
But if this puzzle be hard to solve
Remove lust and watch love dissolve.

Big Blue Cow

I saw her in a meadow high
Where red flowers touch the sky
Her eyes were mournful, so much inside
I looked within, skepticism died

(chorus)
I'm in love with a big blue cow
And a big blue cow loves me
She don't have a job, but she survives
Without that college degree
She don't take drugs, and she don't drink
We agree about politics, I think.

I used to date a gal, who talked a storm
But I felt cold, I had to feel warm
I wanted a date who understood me
This cow is electric, I touched the fence, and I see.

Now its the wrong species, my parents would plea
But species is what I say it must be
In Kindergarten, they indoctrinated me
with a gender book, for kids aged three

At this point, you might say I'm moronic
But true love is always platonic
over 28 percent of young women say they are gay 
I think that society made them that way

So don't laugh at me when I avow
eternal affection for my big blue cow
I'll go to the meadow, and gaze in her eyes
where bees buzz, and the condor cries

You may say I believe what I want to believe
But who doesn't, and love can't deceive.

Poetry Lineage

I am a son of the verse and the word,
                                 the spoken and written word...
                                 I am the fruit of platonic love
                                 between carnation and rose...
                                 in truth I am made
                                 of meat and flowers,
                                 bones and dreams,
                                 muscle, blood and truth,
                                  and mostly I'm made
                                 of poetic immateriality
                                  that is poetry...!

Even Those Platonic Thoughts Have Ended

Today Lady Luck has made me smile for a change...
I tried all the tricks to lure you and lying about everything,
I saw that worry in each smile turning into fear:
you weren't willing to please me and lose someone dear!


I am alive again, and as a madman I'm screaming,
" How can you blame me for finding some happiness,
and not wait for a call to ease this loneliness?   
But finding you is harder than searching for a diamond in the sand!
Too sorry to say darling, " Even those platonic thoughts have ended...
I couldn't wait forever and cling to an empty feeling! "


The few words that we whispered without tenderness
have vanished into the clouds of another sunset,
and without a last kiss...what else is left?
Even those platonic thoughts have ended...
making me realize that true happiness
isn't found in someone who's already committed.

Premium Member The Red Toenail Blues

She was to be the one; we'd made serious plans. 
She'd get her teaching degree; mine would be in biology.
Then we'd marry and live as happily as we could.

She'd take me to her beloved Wales.
To visit her people and her precious birthland.
To roam the land of red dragons and castles. 
Where great clans engaged in passion and battle.
We'd stroll along the ocean and vast emerald hills.
Taste mysteries of life from the salty breeze and gull's shrill. 

First, there was so much to do.
 I went off to a 4-year school.
Time and distance have a way of crumbling relations.
Creeping up and down the dark side of imagination and temptation.

On spring break, I went home to visit my future bride-to-be.
Forgetting all about my bright red little pinkie, 
(the victim of a few drinks and the dare of a tart).
My Welsh love took one look at the bright red toe.
Suddenly her love and faith in me had a little less glow.
Though I assured her the paint job was purely platonic.
That little red pinkie was the beginning of a relationship rotting.

Strange how our lives can pivot so violently.
On a drunken dare and a little red pinkie.
That cost me the sextant of my destiny, 
The Atlantic Ocean and a castle by the sea.
