Shared Out Poems - Poems about Shared Out

Your god’s not mine, or so you claim— yet still we walk the world, the same. You speak of love, of hope, of peace, while others preach that wrath won’t cease. Who holds the truth? Who lights the way? Do we kneel to pray, or rise to lead? A single street, a dozen creeds— each door adorned with sacred signs. Which path is...

What truly is power Is it control or the silence that follows it? Is it born from bullets and broken promises Or from the love we dismiss as weakness? Can power ever be shared like bread split between hungry Sudanese hands as if leadership were a meal the poor can taste in equal halves? Or is power what poisons the soil the reason Sudanese...

The love you shared that did not last Sadness felt when remembering the past Stomach aches when you look at the skies The stars glow bright, like her big brown eyes Try to move forward, find a new love She came to you from Heaven above Time moves on, sometimes stands still The Happiness felt, is this Gods will. The stars are...

I may not be in the best position to give advice but know that this little ditty comes from the heart ~ Self-respect goes a long way. Set your boundaries and stand your ground. People will want to play their games, when they get close you'll fend them off. Guard your integrity with your life, it's the best thing that you've got....

Before your voice is lost in the silence that fills the once-shared space, leave behind not just your absence, but the glow of your kindness like a gentle light, a silent ray that will forever linger in the corners of my heart, unforgotten. May the touch of your hand or the too-brief embrace leave its mark, let your eyes...

For me, Penning poetic words, Is a desired labor of love; Sharing life’s awareness Of the guided wisdom Poured out of God’s cistern To wave and froth inspiration; And the beauty Of it all Is that God’s cistern Is eternally overflowed With such frothing words; Energizing Thirsty searching souls And strengthening Our tested spirits With His peace Love and healing grace; And I pray My poetic well Will continue To be flooded With buckets Of hydrating words; And when...

We went around in circles, yet the truth lingered right between us, smirking as if it had already triumphed. You labeled it complicated. I called it chaos. There’s nothing beautiful about pretending— about trying to bridge a gap so vast that you can taste the deception in your mouth. But we went ahead anyway. Sat there. Grinning, as if we didn’t already realize this was the...

You, me, seashore, one place, one earphone, Coconut with two straws—one ice cream, two noses. Cold winds, but your warmth wraps me whole, Two souls in one sweater, hearts beating slow. Sitting under the moon, watching him chase the clouds, And that night, love, I realized how foolish I’ve been, Calling...

chasing the heat haze on the highway smoking a spliff while "let it roll” plays praying to feel your touch by Friday without adding another cross on the byway I haven’t seen the world as it is for a while but I refuse to close my eyes and abide by their lies as a mother Searches ashes for her child all so...
