Short Agonising Poems

Agonising golden leaves 

On their deathbed, recalling 

Days of glory that have past

Awaiting rebirth!

The last thing 
I see
Is your face.
Beautiful, 
amazing.
But wrong. 
Sinful,
Like me, 
as if you were 
the devil itself.
I close my eyes 
and feel 
the agonising heat

Of the buried deep, dark, domain of hell....

"Think not that poetry is a host of rhythms and rhymes

Nor is it some letters we have put into some paper 

Poetry is nothing but tears of the heart agonising

After we have felt deeply pained and pressed."

Analyzing, agonising
Just wanna chill now
Not lose my sight
Just feel what’s right...

...feel safe alone
And now I do
Don’t  need this and that
And them or you

To live my life
With all my heart
My courage, my wisdom
My passion

Be happy, sad
Be sane, be mad
Learn each lesson
And feel Grace...

No matter how hard you hit me,I will always rise
No matter how miserable you make me I will never cry
No matter how difficult you make I will always try
No matter how agonising it is I will never die
No matter how you pray for my demise I will never die
No matter how you try to fox me I will know you are in disguise
Doesn't matter how I am subdued I will always rise,I will always rise....

THOUGHTS
an insidious truth
this magnetic
attraction
an
accessible charm
engaging
 expressions
of an inner
 construct
agonising
 so interesting
 explicitly
embraced

yet a
paradox
 capable
of curating
exaggerated
 images
a
 divinity.
 of transformation
of innate qualities,
in an  artifice
of authentic
choices
 contoured
& involved
so effortless
 frequently
appearing
 artificial...

Crystalline waters


Spring of life,
Traverses newer paths,
Trace the flow of crystalline waters,

Waterfall,
inspires to meditate,
Serenity is immediate,

Stand at shore,
waters buzzing galore,
Furore engulfs agonising throes,

Sets new rhythm,
Tunes the heart beat perfect,
Thoughts flow constant to soulful enthral !

TRY FAIL BETTER
doubtless
  fragile
in
quiet originality
of
sublimated energy
so redolent
  eternal
anguish
elegant
  surreal
agonising
  challenges
of abstract
    concepts
conviction
ineffable
  interest
remorseless
the
  impossible
complicated
self-absorbing

exploring
the
  unshakeable
bonds
of
  fascination
enlivened
by
sightings
  so much
larger
  than life
prodigious
in
  appearance
disarmingly
  palpable
in
ironic
  intimacy

Not so many years ago
I revelled in rebellion, 
Derided seniors 
In sportsmobiles,
Comfortable bellies on 
Wheels.  Waistcoat 
Fillers.  Surreptitious 
Pint spillers. 

But now I sit and scoff 
At youth and all its 
Awkward agonising 
Over lack of truth. 

Merrily I mow the lawn 
And curse because I 
Can't get my wellies on. 
And my wife orders me 
To buy a larger pair. 
And I cry 'No!' and 
She groans and I ignore 
Her as I turn the telly on
And I revel in my rebellion....
