Looking Poems - Poems about Looking

Shall I peer into my looking glass, my darling?
I stare at the girl through my looking glass. In her smile, self-deprecation sighs. Voices in her head whisper chaos, as she screams internally for attention, begging any deity above to save her. Oh dear, doesn't she know? The looking glass might just crack, from a world where fight becomes flight. She enforces principles of modesty in clothing- but is modesty the only veil...

WHEN YOU CAME LOOKING
songer.co/song/zhrrlz76f4svedppeqpsvle1 [Verse 1] You came by when the world got too loud, Eyes like rain, voice full of doubt. I didn’t ask — I just stayed, Held your silence like it had something to say. But I was always the place you’d land, Not the one you’d ever understand. [Chorus] And love… real love doesn’t hide, Doesn’t knock just when it’s cold outside. I didn’t know...

Jesus painted a picture that I alone could see, no more was I considered a Doubting Thomas. Despite my many shortcomings He still loved me, and had given to me hope, truth, and promise. At times God has placed me on an uncertain path, it’s during these times he is testing my faith. Obedience is the key to avoiding God’s...

No One Comes Looking
I was eight years old the first time I realized, no one was coming to save me. That I could scream , until my throat bled raw, cry until my eyes swelled shut, beg until my knees bruised- against the floor, and still, no one would come. I learned young that love...

Two formidable contenders are battling for the crown, each making grand promises. Where do we go wrong? What wisdom does our Bible impart about speaking in tongues? It's a reality that for one to win, another must lose; that’s the essence of this game change. We know that nothing will ever be the same again. ...

The Looking Glass
Amidst all the maylay we emerged like growing seeds immune to the harvest Time spent in darkness bought us things we needed during the purge Missing the past is absurd for it's just a memory of retained but forgotten words A grain of sand in an hourglass clearly shows us the material isn't meant to last What we do take with us are lessons of the past that mirror reflecting...

I Am A Florida Black Man Lynched For Looking At A White Woman
they said it was the sun, but it was her eyes— blue like drowning, and I looked. I didn’t whistle, I didn’t speak, just looked. they dragged me out like a busted dog from a hot porch, shouting things even the devil would blush at. the rope was older than the tree, and the hate older than that. tell her I forgive her— but never them. ...

Premium Member Looking to the Harvest
A lunar luster spills a silvershine cascade of nebulating moonshine lilt onto a night-time field, drawing a quilt of pale radiance over the still vine. A myriad of glowing serpentine twines sleep.—but, slithering round its stout stilt, a wakeless plant is working out its tilt.— It’s fruit will not be ripe enough for wine. So see I, amidst the flourishing grape, the withering...
