Her winsome smile belied her secret essence
A temptress and siren
Given to saturnine quintessence
And I a man of placid and calm complexion
Became ever more umbrageous
With each stranger she offered affection
Ciara Cybelle chose to take her chances
Unconcerned by my mood
Continued her frenzied romances
She swooned at my charm
And laughed at my wit
And yet held to another man’s arm
Ciara Cybelle a nymph out of hell
Twisting a man
With her temptress spell
I had to make her understand
She simply had to see
I must be her only man
But Ciara Cybelle laughed instead
Eyes flashing fire
She brazenly said
The likes of me would never know
The deliciousness
Of the charms she would bestow
On other men she found fairer
Then in a rage
I struck in blind error
And carefree Ciara Cybelle
Lay shattered and still
At my feet where she fell
To the dark waters I fed
The alabaster body
Of Ciara Cybelle dead
Now benthic stillness of cimmerian depths
Disturbed by the pale lifeless limbs
Of Ciara Cybelle
Now tumescent and water pruned
The once sempiternal beauty
Forever ruined
I can feel it all burning down,
the walls I painted in soft colors,
the corners I swept clean for company—
they crackle in silence.
Instead of exploring other ruins,
chasing ghosts in forgotten places,
I should stop.
Sit with the dust in my own lungs.
Run my hands along the scorch marks
I never let cool.
There is wreckage here
I never named.
I’ve been walking through myself
like a stranger with no flashlight—
stepping over the memories,
ignoring the rot,
pretending I’m whole
because I never stopped moving.
But now,
the staircase from my heart to my head is collapsing—
each step a splinter,
each thought misfiring like sparks from frayed wires.
The chandelier has hit the floor.
Glass teeth scatter across the silence.
It used to shine.
It used to hold light.
Now even the ceiling
has given up on me.
perfect autumn day
a romantic proposal
raven lands on knee
the groom is startled
the crow is victorious
ruining the mood
I ruined what we had
With my mincing words misplaced,
Words that made you mad
With a feeling as though also disgraced.
I ruined what we were
With things in which we never concurred,
Things I was just unsure
Of whether it is my path that has occurred.
I ruined our bond
With feelings long suppressed,
Feelings as shallow as a pond,
In which I drowned into state so depressed.
You ruined what was left of me
By fully letting go of me entirely,
Even though I tried and tried to be
Better for you (and me) eternally.
True love, she's always seeking.
Broke up not too long
Find another who truly loves her
Proposed to her that same year
She's ready, to let go of her past
She was absolutely happy, It's her wedding day
The long waited day, unknowingly to her it's a bad day.
It's her ex
Coming for revenge
Holding unto offense
Ready to defend without pretense
He still love and want her, not ready to let go.
As the preacher man says,
Do you have anything against this union
He stood up and walked majestically
Down the aisle, straight to the altar
Such an hassle, he's a *******
With all eyes on him, he uttered everything
She screamed; nooooo... then she fainted.
Saturn’s tale is one of pain and ease,
In the vast expanse of endless space.
Where darkness hums and stars softly gleam,
A story unfolds like a celestial dream.
Its beloved moon, once dancing in grace,
Turned cruel and struck its gentle surface.
Through the quiet night, Saturn bore the strife,
Moon's fragments drift and wane, as its assault claimed its life.
Echoes of love turned to lingering pain,
Yet within the scar, beauty remains.
From the wounds, a unique splendor grew,
The moon’s betrayal forged rings anew.
Could Saturn’s tale be merely its own?
Or a reflection of our life’s trials, beautifully shown?
Just as Saturn's ruins hold a divine allure, our own flaws reveal a beauty pure.
Like Saturn’s perfect ruins of divinity,
the flaws we own are our greatest beauty.
his infantine fit was funny to see
coming out of a usually reserved Mr. Lee
he had been brainwashed by Trump TV
subliminal clips that ruined our friend Mr. Lee
Feeling confused and lost about the man she once loved. The brown eye girl doesn't know how to act with her true feelings about him. The green eye cowboy is still a ticking time bomb towards a lot of people and things. Afraid of what not to say or to even open her mouth. She knows in her heart she still loves him and a part of her always will. But he doesn't know what she has given up to be with him. Ruining her happiness for a love not given back.
I used to love juice
acid reflex changed that
after it came back up
going down it was delightful
coming back up
not so much
acid reflex has ruined juice for me
and jalapeno peppers and Cheetos too
Ever since you wanted to look cooler,
better,
and prettier, from that day you chose to wear braces.
And you looked like every other 14year old boy in our school trying to get mature and masculine.
You were not the classclown anymore but the shy guy at the back, always getting pointed at the teachers to say what you have on your task.
Now you've done your work.
But still hidden it.
Ever since you chose that day to wear braces,
maybe you've become cooler, betrer and prettier.
But you weren't special anymore.
You now looked,
like everyone else.
Fantastic firms aka looters
Make polymers and are polluters
Their products break down
Spread all over town
They even serve plastic at Hooters
This poem was inspired by a song Iris by Goo Goo Dolls
I don't want the world
to see me,
as I don't think,
they'll understand.
Even if they saw,
I don't dread any honest dig,
for I stay as invisible as the air
around them.
The agony that is running
through my bones,
making them freeze,
is beyond words and metaphors.
The tremor of regret,
with every breath is inevitable,
I shudder with the very weight
of this deadly life.
An endless season of slumber -
is all that I need,
to overcome this never ending
span of suffering.
As I am an absolute master piece,
among the most ruined of all.
~Ayesh
grill is on fire
to much food all is burning
coals unattended
I think it is really crazy
You've become so very lazy
Not willing to try and save
The love her heart finally gave
To you which was a big thing
"Stupid" you'll ruin everything
It was tough and very hard
Her heart was like a deck of cards
That kept falling one by one
With all that other men have done
So when she took one last chance
On you for a new romance
You promised to always be
Here for her and never flee
Like others have done before
Showing her there's something more
But now you are acting like
Your about to take a hike
Which will be a huge mistake
Because she will surely break
If one more piece of her heart
Tumbles, you will lose a lot
More than just her loving care
She will try to disappear
With a quick slice from the blade
Hoping she will finally fade
And not have to live like this
With no one for her to miss
Don't be dumb--Take my advice
I would think about it twice
Before doing what your brain
Tells you to, causing her pain
She has had enough to last
Run to her and really fast
A jigsaw throw of sad and wrecked people.
To find their way through a group of stories.
Left a stream that was picked by a needle.
A jigsaw throw of sad and wrecked people.
Sharp cracks on focus split up the evil.
Bizarre self-reflection and true glories.
A jigsaw throw of sad and wrecked people.
To find their way through a group of stories.
