Mean(A) Poems

Premium MemberIt Don'T Mean a Thing

It don’t mean a thing
When there’s no bling, bling, bling
No gold adornment or diamond ring.
A brother buying Rolex
In clothes starched and well pressed
Never notices the sister
Selling jewelry to eat.

Yet,
Praise God for the sons of Adam
Made in the image divine
Say “bones of my bones, flesh of my flesh”
My beloved, I’ll know you are mine

I told you

Premium MemberLittle Things Mean a Lot

It's the little things in life that mean so much
That steaming hot cup of coffee waiting for you as you greet the day
The cheery hello from a neighbour
As you stumble out of the house, briefcase and keys in hand
Ready for the challenges of yet another exciting day
The smile on the traffic cop's face at the

Little Things Mean a Lot

Her rather quaint cottage in Gwent
Appeared to be quite Heaven-sent
Then down came a spider
That flip-flopped inside her
And hie high ballistic she went!

You Mean a Lot To Me

Some relationships last for a life time 
A relation that you and I share 
We can just be ourselves 
We can talk anything from the heart
I never realized when you became 
Such an important part of my life 
And my being in life 
A friend like you is like a gem
Always there to hold me

Where Your Face Don'T Mean a Thing

When it's quiet in the morning, I know that you are gone
Marching from your family to the place you don't belong
You soldier on to countries where your face don't mean a thing
Valued as disruption with the destructions you bring
I wish these unknown countries saw the man you truly are
The body that I ache to hold

It Doesn'T Mean a Thing

if you see me out late at night
looking like i'm about to cry
please believe it's allergies
and not the fact she's not with me

though i'll never really understand
the main reason that she left
so if my head is hanging low
it's not the fact i miss her so

if she's near me and my heart skips a beat
that's not

Wedding Vows Don'T Mean a Thing, When I Get Hit With the Ring

The frigid cold in your soul
Is taking the biggest toll
On our love--it's hard to handle it
I am getting tired of this sh--
What happened along the way
When everything was A.O.K.
And you never got this mean
Now every days a horror scene
Yelling and screams never end
As I try hard to defend
Myself from the hits and blows
With every minute

She Used To Mean a World To Me

She used to mean a world to me:
my soil, my sky, my sea,
she was my stay in trying times;
we did commit cool crimes.
Loving and learning what is right
and sometimes fighting all the night,
in freaky blast, our love did last;
she's now gone.

She used to mean a world to me:
the Sun and moon I always see,
she's always

Life Don'T Mean a Thousand Things

Beneath a thousand stars
Beyond the furthest horizons
A distant world as bizarre
As ignorant to never learn

Lazing the deepest seas
Surviving the lifeless cold
Stolen eyes blinded to see
How memories never enfold

Rays of a blazing Sun
Scorching the eternity of Hell
Living souls forever hunt
Soulless life forever withheld

Dirts upon Mother Earth
Sands the movement of time
Moments immeasurably worth
As futile as only humans

Don'T Mean a Damn Thing

I must have been so naive.
Writing most of my other poems.

Not knowing what love was or is.
I still have no clue.

I guess I never really had it,
since apparently you can't lose it.

My poems and thoughts were 
written from watching and looking 
from afar.

Never having experience of my own.

Then I finally has that chance and felt

Little Things Mean a Lot

The heart that loves little things is full of deep content;
The life that serves in little things is often nobly spent;
Do not despise a day of little things,
For bees as well as angels can boast a pair of wings.
