Long Take apart Poems

There Is This Dark Place Where I Go

There is this dark place where I go 
when feeling overwhelmed
When life is too much to go on
My light all but dispelled

I take myself up to my room
And...

Where I live is in between
A memory and a dream
Walking a tightrope each day
I light my self on fire
And take a big box
And head down Main Street
The weasels in the front of Bill’s Cafe
Love it,...

When I was a child ‘bout five to six I used to dream that this were me
I’d peel back frame from toys, take apart their guise to see what was beneath
I was ever so careful,...

The Forgotten

They sit alone wishing the walls could hear their crying
They see the clock tick minute by minute, day by day
Another lonely day
As they continue to breathe
Nothing can numb this pain
They are forgotten and alone
The...

If I had never meet you
I wouldn’t know what true love meant
I didn’t know the meaning of happiness
For my lonely life was just content

Never knowing the magic of romance
And to hear some one say I...

If my life flashed before my eyes…

There would be a moment of sadness
    Yet, there would be more joy and gladness

There would be a smile of recollection

THE FAMILY

Still came the child in all her energy and essence, 
her smell of nickel and pumpkin, of lavender and bay; 
in little songs she's hummed, in her oh so gentle play.

A universe herself,

For what reason I'm more than often sad...
if warm rain gives life to beautiful roses:
can skies change from grey to blue in an instant?
For what reason do I run from happiness?
Are these thoughts erased from...

they thought they were doing a simple task
but failed to realize that all things done
never simple or like they seem. Would
you care to take apart the item in questioned
asked the Professor?  Smiling, he spoke...

I will take the static silence and replace it with many roars
I will take away the violence and heal away your sores,
Let me take away the anguish and replace it with many smiles
Let me truly...

New beginning


Lights in the dead of the night sky;
The music plays waking the neighbourhood.
Electronic radio-waves leave no place to hide;
Wipe away the sleep from your eyes for good.


The noise is inside you now and forever;
Words...

I am backwards but I like it because you always love me more when I am something broken for you to fix
I take apart my bones so you...

The day presents a journey, waiting to begin,
a font of wisdom in a strange new land,
each personage a soul to take apart,
although one never  knew those traveler delights;
the things to love,
the mystery to probe--
that...

To make America great again
begins with recalling,
in capital cities red and blue,
public squares,
and wiki circles,
We are what health
and sickness we do.

To make Earth healthy again
might be a stunning start
to cooperate together, sustain
what and whom,
when and...

Underneath the swirling of the questions and the looming darkness,

Underneath the stuff that covers up the stuff that’s really there,

Underneath the need to take apart, and rearrange, and find the pain inside the good,

Stands the...

Perhaps if we were to take apart grief as we unravel life  
one single moment unstitched pulled out of time 
we'd begin to see that death is only a silent passage 
and we need...

A wall of bricks between us
Almost Impossible to take apart
every time we try,it breaks both our hearts
Even though we are meant to be
The whole world always disagrees

We could never love another
Like we love each other
But no...

An only child
Never has to fight to the death for the prize out of a cereal box

An only child
Never knows how angry she can get when someone picks on her sister

An only child
Never has to...

Grandpa got a twenty-one gun salute.
I shivered, knowing how much he hated guns
After Viet Nam
The last time he picked one up was in a jungle.
Fifty years ago.

They are playing taps now.
Sad dirge sound.
Grandpa liked Johnny...

Harsh words impugn if slung in hate
and rip apart a calloused heart.
Expressed regret cannot abate
the pain that permeates our slate.

It's best to stop and take apart
the wagon which has run amuck.
Affix new wheels upon the...

U r not there in the lining on 
my palms...
Nor do I see you in the fate 
of my arms;
But your name is clearly 
inscribed in the walls of my 
heart...
Which no force on earth...
