Premium Member Misunderstanding for Grandpa
He is a crackshot I told his great-grandpa Grandpa misheard; he thought I called him a crackpot It took awhile for us to sort it out In the meantime, grandpa was angry, showing a pout. Not sure he ever fully understood The beginning of dementia is never good....

behind the viel
Dust laden window grilles, Lime scales on the shower door. Detritus below the fragmented doors, Commiserating the saudade and furor. Blackened cushions besmirched with dirt, dusty sheath peeping thru sleek curtain pleats. Scalloped valance swaying and bewailing in silent grief. Scattered around are the pages of the brief. Culaccino marks on the table, Shriveled up and dried plants silently standing in...

MISUNDERSTANDING
I almost understand, but but I do not comprehend nor accept... That your frozen blood, fused in silent time, with pupils painted with ink of nonsense, touched with the illusory dust of an evident negativity, can rave and enjoy while watching the noiseless suicide of my soul that survives in the midst of a supernatural love for your fabled figure... Does nothing bring you light memories lived, atavistic happiness, dormant...! Why do...

Misunderstanding
24 June 2024 9:54 Am What good is a written word if no one reads it? What good is a spoken word if no one hears it? What good is either if no one understands it? How tight and dark the prison of confusion Enlightenment rejected for lack of inclusion Societal chaos a city of souls lost Love abandoned sanity tost My...

Premium Member Misunderstanding Of Male Hippo In Midlife Crisis
Are my motives questionable Maybe even disagreeable Knowing they will be unforgettable Therefore, under the magnifying glass examine A male hippopotamus lost so much weight He felt he was the bull most likely To stay out late With flamboyant, embellished cows He was no longer A defender of his character Living in abandon His life needed to be abolished His old life he needed to follow Acknowledge...

Premium Member New Bolero
No talking at night, No breakfast together, No sparks in your eyes. Busy most of the time, out from this empty house. No kisses in the morning, nor late at night when you come back. No flowers on Valentine's day, no more boleros to dance. My dear husband, I'm so sorry to misunderstand the way you are. Dear husband I made a mistake, I drank the...

Premium Member My Misunderstanding
I am easy to misunderstand for I live life through emotion I once was so misunderstood, seen was addiction where I felt devotion Strange as though it may sound I love that person still Though the words spoken cut deeper then, if they'd maimed or kill Realizing that I received clarity from them above all Knowing now she wanted out,...

Table Number Four
Tonight's our night We've been waiting weeks Our favourite Bistro For Potato soup with leeks They gave us 'our' table The one by the door Where we first sat Table number 4 I remember what you ate Thai Curry with Fish I had the Gnocci Oh what a dish It'll always be our table Near the dance floor Where we first fell in love Table number 4 Tonight as we danced I...

Heart On a Paper
He left her with a Piece of paper, Containing words of what He hoped to be enough For her to comprehend. He believed she'll read Those lovely curved lines With eyes of her heart, Not of her mind. Knowing she was cautious To open herself to the Possibility of being loved, He still decided to be bold And leave his comfort zone. She returned it, Never realising... She returned...
