Agony of Riches

The ultimate indulgence…
blind acceptance

All standards rescinded
—all judgment forlorn

(Dreamsleep: October, 2019)


Her Last Glance

Her last glance
Hastened 
My last supper.

Intense, 
Fascinating, and
Fascinated
By life and the agony of the harper.

SNOWFLAKES


Snowflakes:
Tears of angels
Crystallized by the
Agony of human
Pain!

Pandemic warring,
Human nature’s volcanic
Lava flow of hate;
Scorching love with agony:
Her world’s peace flowing away:-

Untitled #71 / That Terrible Light

Ah! Already I can feel that
terrible light dimming in my heart!
Come back! I would rather live with agony
than be dead to love!


Premium Member Agony

Feeling like I live
Inside bubble of sorrow.
Drowning in my mind.
All these bad dreams consume me.
Nothing at all what it seems.

Broken Mirror

Screams of gut-wrenching agony
Fist meets glass
Shattered pieces on the floor
A droplet of blood drips
7 years bad luck

To Embrace Life

To live without sorrow is not true.
To endure agony as well as joy,
is to embrace life in its entirety,
gaining wisdom along the way.

Whatever it is you like me to be,
As long as it sets me free
From my never-ending agony
Of never entirely being the person that I see.

Agony

Smash the glass vase in
Your rage, but this flower's bloom
Was not in vain; it
Dies—wilting to gift you its
Scent to save your sanity.

What I Did Always Wrong

More of my agony I will prolong, 
Which seems to be same old song; 
Tears bring; 
Pain being,
And what I did was always wrong.

Haiku

Tortured, the mute cries......
                      dead Elephant, tuskers removed.....
                      the agony of cut Trees .......

Four Lines of Life

A rose falls on the sore wound
Healing the deep agony within
Both pain and love have been seen
Friends, feel the futility of fatal fights...

Agony of Defeat

With washed away hopes
Drenched in defeat, ego cries
Impaled by the cold
Starts tumbling through the abyss,
Gasping for comforting thoughts

Excess Dilemma

A man
with excess of money
 IS not exactly lucky...
But a wretch of fortune !
Or hazard...
with enormous aplomb
to agony and unhappiness...!

Plead With Me

Plead with me,
in this agony,
to let us breath.
Extend our hands and arms,
towards the blinding sun,
and tell the world,
how far we've come.

Skinned

That day you said “No”
I was skinned alive
on the abattoir of rejection
bleeding my heart has been
agony burns as flames
of hell set loose on me

The Agony

Your organs are failing
Like the sun going down
But you're hovering at 4 o' clock
Prolonging the day
Best to get on with it
To a new day dawning

Premium Member Schizo

Agony and insanity are my own family.
Hence why I am so often on edge with reality.
There is no actual cure for this disease, so please leave me be.

Agony

Grief of clouds
                   its darkness; 
                                   so it cries as crystal rains
