Rescued from the Storm
Standing on a crag Frozen against the storm Wrap another layer on Rain biting through me Throwing coins to the waves Trading hope for affection Thunder without lightning Blind on wet rocks You pull up alongside me Drawing back the clouds Peeling off the wet layers Baring my skin to the Sun Taking me below decks Holding me while I shiver Safe and warm in your embrace Melting into...

Respite in the Moonshine
Candle glow at midnight, The hatch is locked A scrambling splutter As I reach for the key of circles, bolts and lines. But just as before. The circle ends 4 corners behind And I'm scrambling again for another key I plead the glow; It flickers as I- Well, I, I cherish my existence once more As another circle starts to grow... My foot taps to the...

Chase Your Dreams
It's time Your Chase Your dreams like that job with no bag in your hand Or Like You was chasing that man For a relationship And all he was doing wit you was playing Never Claiming you were his just a chick To be honest you wasn't even his side dish Lacking love and only wanting your attention But never...

To Have Me or Have Not
**"To Have Me or Have Not"** A thought just crossed my mind—a problem that has never been resolved. A bitter taste, a bitter cold; I don’t feel any remorse. It’s a path I’ve taken, a road I’ve traveled, with a toll that wasn’t paid. Unsettled thoughts remain, accompanied by cries of unspent tears. I left, but...

Her Scars Tell a Story
Admist the twilight, she dares to creep, Her scars tell silent stories, buried deep, Each line, a testament, a thread of her past, Woven with resilience, they hold her steadfast. They’re not marks of weakness, but pathways of grace, A roadmap of heartaches, each curve has its place, In the magnificence...

We are the innocent ones who were verbally and physically eviscerated by heathens who deemed us weak. The evil ones punished our hearts, souls and minds leaving us in an internal pool of blood. We endured the ruthlessness and brutality from all whom wrongly believed they were somehow above us. There were so many...

Angels With No Wings
Her heart has been broken so many times, And her eyes have cried so many tears, That nothing bothers her anymore, You’ll never see her cry. She keeps to herself, She blends in with everyone else now, Because every time her heart broke, A feather fell from her angel wings. She may not act the same as before, But she’s still the same person, An...

Premium Member Finish My Poem - The Butterfly
As she drinks nectar from a flower, sweetness from heaven falls like dew   anointed with a gentle rain amidst sun showers she appears as if on cue   Lifting her wings she lands on a Zinnia beneath a tinted sky of April blue  flight of fancy fanning fast, fabulous marvel, she is beauty true on true Tis the vernal hour...

The Night the Truth Stayed Silent
The road was long, the night was cold, A stranger walked into the town. His coat was torn, his hat pulled low, His weary eyes fixed on the ground. The streets lay still, the lamps burned low, Behind locked doors, all lay at rest. But in the bar, the glasses clinked, As whiskey warmed the sleepless guests. He stepped inside, the room fell...

Lost Myself
If only I'd seen, Your true colours shine, Before your poisonous thoughts, Could ever dominate mine. Your toxic, degrading comments, Began taking their toll, Making me feel worthless, Tactically destroying my soul. Manipulating me to believe, Way too many times, I was completely crazy, Guilty of YOUR crimes. Searching for the evidence, I could never find, All just to prove, Wasn't loosing my mind. Still to this day, My anger burns deep, I...

Plumbers Monologue
I am a plumber, CDM is my companies name, The initials belong to my sons, They may work with me one day. I had a LARGE WHITE van, Before Covid made all of the Prices lower. Later I tried to get different work, a variety, But I partnered with a no- good man, And I lost it all again. I had insurance so I...
