My Own Poems - Poems about My Own

The world is quiet here Yet growing louder by the day Renting paradise from vultures Split amongst two flavors of instability I clamored and dreamed for that golden armor That title that would cement my name in history To be a "hero" to someone I'd lose contact with forever Scars fade, and eternity is short I saw my dreams given flesh No gaps left...

I give, I strive,? I bend, I buy,? But I’m always the one? Who’s hurt inside. I listen, I care,? I help repair,? But I don’t often? Get to share. No one asks? If I’m okay,? They leave me alone ?To slowly decay. But I want more— ?Where I’m not ignored. I see the note on the wall ?I feel myself begin to fall Am I not enough? Am I not tough?? Is...

I try to hide the pain, to blur the days...

What have I created? I look in the eyes of the devils kin everyday, yet it has not fazed me until that day. This man, who claims to love and care for me, Has brought me to tears more than I can count But you see, I’ve made him this way he claims. I am ungrateful. I am selfish. I am rude. I am a dishonorable...

Marly’s gasconade about her chalet in Switzerland was not braggadocio I sat for two hours keen to see it all, stunned by the dazzling clear water Captivated by the lace topped Alps, the air was crisp and clean. Her description of a delightful dazzling scene was not an embellishment. Ravishing flowers beside the cool bench where I sat...

I was born with dreams, not my own, but woven like a spider's web into my blood, by ancestors who left this world without fulfilling their desires, they pass down ambition like an heirloom of old silverware, polished with memories, caressed by the dust of decades, yet too precious to be left to fade away.
