Near Poems - Poems about Near

What would we all say If the world would end in a few minutes Gaze at the stars And wonder who put them up there Point at the clouds And guess how long they've been there Pick a flower or too And bask in its fragrance Run through the grass field Feeling the breeze rush past you Apologize to the earth For...

She hears, but never truly listens, Speaks in echoes, cold and distant. A laugh escapes, not filled with cheer, Her eyes glance past, yet never near. Darkness creeps, a closing wall, But she won’t let herself fall. One more puff to chase the gray, One more sigh to blur the day. A flicker of hope, soft and slight, That maybe tomorrow brings some light. But...

For Angela Voras- Hills As work inches along the highway you’ll be standing next to a field the breeze a song only you’ll hear as it whispers but you remember life’s a song your life a collage of all the experiences your heart holds such joy to behold as the season passes as the passing sun bleeds into the sky as the...

"Even When You're Near" I saw you yesterday. You’re not far. Maybe five minutes, a handful of quiet streets. But I miss you. Not because you’re gone, you’re not. It’s just that the world feels softer when you’re in it, next to me, not just in thought. The couch feels bigger....

Looking into the mirror, again and again, my reflection slowly draws near, with a breath, it twists my hands—and I know what it wants from me, it has always envied what I love, despised what I adore with passion, tonight it returns, her fingers lightly touch my lips, tracing their outline like a lover, until she delves deep, the blood...

Gazing into the sky so far, where five points twinkle from a star, there's more than a spark. The feeling lingers, as I sit close to where you are, and hold hands with all five fingers....

Taking part in tomorrow Over and again? Asked of more for who? To avoid where i don’t know His time in a lights, blasts My times haven’t run, home Learning how i leave, beneath Beneath my custom Devoured in still shots At becoming the he , she would expect of me, another shim Today and them, never my ways How i plan to let your rows...

To all the poets near and far Alive and well or beyond the stars, I bid you peace, I bid you rest, I bid you all the very best. Life and death may er’ contain All the fruits of love and rain, Showered down upon you all: Promethean poets, great and small. Long before we learned to write But felt inside that...

The sun retreats in anguish As winter takes control, I stare out the window blankly As I let my thoughts unroll I think of the isolation Of the sadness I solely consume, Betrayed by so called “friends” And left to my own assume I’m tired now and I have to go But it’s not in my nature to give up, Maybe that’s the...

neon lights at night danced behind closed eyes vague memories embraced cats lie at the foot of my bed a heater vent breathes the world I know turns it’s February the sun wears a veil of clouds I take a deep breath a feeling that love lies between death and me as I cry out for spring a leap of faith always a poem to write a story to...

{"I want to be at arm's length of people because I have met you. You reflect on what I believe and disbelieve. You introduce me to a sacred hollow shallow cage you call your childhood home. However, I still hear the replenishment of a child’s cries and screams no matter how much you try to...

We keep praying Let our fate Don't lead us to fatal Faith over Fear We keep hearing We don't let bad vibes come near us. We keep praying For redemption From our redeemer Not deception From our leaders Many deceit Without receiving. We keep praying For grace As we run our race Not disgrace As we lace our shoes Ready to face whatever...

Did you ever feel your heart break and begin to cry Sit Back my friends and I’ll tell you why A friendship developed, beautiful like fresh fallen snow Then she says soon she will go You always knew this day would be here Until this moment you did not know it was near So you sit in the dark, and tears...

Having once died, I found the air like there moist and still. Humming along soft with unseen green wings of light, The echoes of a song long written unfulfilled, That wove through veils of gold and endless night. Each step a path, each path a stair case unseen, Where shadows melt and shimmer into cold flame, A silent guide, a voice...
