Premium Member I Ain't No Good
I ain’t no good, I don’t do the things I should, My woman tells me ‘bout it all the time. What I do wrong, well the list is mighty long, But my woman seems to know it all by heart. She got her degree, in what is wrong with me, First a master’s, then a Ph.D. She lectures all around, relatin’...

Premium Member Why embarass yourself?
You're not doing a stellar job distracting me with idle chatter. Life is not something to be ignored and swept under a mat. I've been living in limbo no matter how you sugarcoat it. Life is short and every beat matters. Every day is another notch in the cog of time fleeting. Life is a race to the finish line, an obstacle course of...

Those We Love
Those we love don't go away, They walk beside us everyday; Though our journey turns bleak and gray, Their guiding light remains to stay. Their counsel heals our wounded heart, Letting pain finally depart; As opposed to falling apart, Our world finds a different start. Loved ones don't always cause comfort, They also fetch challenge and hurt; They push us to grow amid dirt, Telling us...

Beneath the veil
You're ever at my beck and call – Perfection reflected from my mirror. On a sail ~ A voyage that carries off my challenges. All my sorrows and sadness ~ Locked away in your jail, The yashmak of my despairs and desperation, Along with all my worries and wailing. Yet eye-service lurks beneath the veil....

Premium Member Summer Carnival
He handed me the air-brushed t-shirt and I thanked him, said I loved it. He asked, Do you mean that? I said, What would have possessed me to utter it otherwise? Then he kissed me with his sweaty upper lip, through seven half-good teeth, and I felt guilty. How do I explain that wasn't what I'd meant? He said, I didn't think this would ever...

Premium Member A Pathway To Unfathomable Love
Kiss me as you’d kiss a baby, softly to show your love. Touch me gently, as you would someone hurt and afraid. Hug me and hold me tightly, that I might feel secure and protected. Smile at me and laugh with me, so I can see your joy and inner peace. These are the things that sooth my soul, inviting me to join you...

His 9 was my 6
You said I never tried enough, But I thought showing up was love. I held your hand through quiet storms, But never knew how deep they cut. You wanted words — I gave you time. You wanted truth — I gave you signs. You asked for more than I could name, And all I gave felt just… the same. I saw your tears, I heard...

He'll Never Know
I loved you in the silence, when you weren’t even listening. Held on through your absence, while you kept on vanishing. I stayed when you were distant, I hoped through every lie. I gave you all my colors, and you just watched them die. You never read my story, but still, you felt exposed— as if my pain betrayed you, like truth you never chose. You say...

2am with lips with cream
You only see me on the screen. How do you know you wanna be with me? You list all the shower scene, from your favorite movies. My inadequate sweat on my forehead, hope you cant see. I want to know what's your favorite ice cream? Would you give me a taste of your lips, with cream. Point me...

Premium Member Black Hole Love
Your Rain was tears on my window pane - the first poem of yours I had seen - pain-drops spattered a snow-blank expanse, grief-blue with regret and what should have been. I thought mediocre. Bad omen for you. You who attempted to pour the blue, to quench the amber arid air and quell the mithering mistral. I needed that oasis: sea spray words to...
