The concept of an escape is...
...to escape in my own thoughts,
...to escape from my thoughts,
...to escape; however, ONLY in my thoughts.
In the estates a baby cries.
In the streets a young man dies.
In the alleys they'll sell you drugs.
In the schools kids now use guns.
In the world there's so much need
Why won't the government intercede?

Grey like the big fluffy clouds that sit up high in the sky
Grey like the walls that watch us without any eyes
Grey like the wolves that howell away
Grey like the roads that take us miles away
Grey like my heart when I'm having a very bad day

Life comes out of a woman's womb!
Life makes the new born cry!
Life has has only four stages!
Life can be holy or damned!
Life offers happiness to a few!
Life condemns many to sadness!
Life battles with death daily,
Life lives in me, but it has no thrill!
Blue like the waves that crash in the deep blue sea
Blue like the feeling that makes us gloomy and unhappy
Blue like the sky when the clouds run away
Blue like the the flashing lights of fireworks on a special day
Blue is a magical color that lives in us everyday
With time we get old.
With time we accomplish our goals.
With time broken hearts are healed.
With time secrets are revealed.
With time night turns into day.
With time memories fade away.
Your destiny.....will always be…….with time.

Written for contest: 'Forty', by Silent One.
I only wish to know my heart
I only wish to love
I only wish to learn new things
I only wish to live above
I only wish to understand
I only wish to grow
I only wish to touch the stars
I only wish to know
I only wish to some how forget
I only wish to see
I only wish to learn to cry
I only wish to be
Clothe me with your mercy that my heart may melt
Clothe me with your light; let your love be felt
Clothe me with your peace, we have yet to understand...
And when I am called, Lord, clothe me with your joy when before you, I stand

The wind whistles in the cold dark night,
The wind sights through the boughs of old trees,
The wind whispers through the tall river reeds,
The wind ripples the field of high grasses,
The wind brushes my face and plays with my hair,
The wind is something no one can see,
The wind is something no one can touch,
Yet the Wind can see and touch us all.
Yes its now confirmed
By the shaking hands
And sweat covered brow
I'm addicted
Cant get my fix
I've tried and tried
I'm almost going out of my mind
I'm addicted
Don't know if there is rehab
Or any help groups
Cant tell my friends
I'm addicted
So hurry up and comment
Get your act together
I cant cope when you don't read
I'm addicted.
dramatic monologue
come
come quickly
come, spotless Bridegroom
come, Lord
come fill our thirst
come, gift your bride with peace
come and conclude your covenant
come, declare your earthly kingdom
come, show your power over death
even so,
Lord Jesus, come

using anaphora, a poetic device
Silence the waves crashing,
Silence the birds call,
Silence echoes of the lost soul,
Silence, everywhere silence.
Screams shatter the birds call,
Screams silence the waves,
Screams crack the very essence,
Screams scare the silence away.
Silently the screams take over.
Screams of silent despair.
Silent screams, scream silently.
Silently I scream.
We can see it
smell it
hear it
Touch it
taste it
love it
hate it
fear it
feel it
prolong it
shorten it
mock it
curse it
embrace it
track it
lose it
find it
remember it
forget it
abuse it
respect it
eject it
enjoy it
destroy it
change it
waste it
We can even repeat it
But
We cannot deny it
We cannot rewind it
We cannot stop it
Be Nice
Don’t be nasty, don’t be mean.
Don’t use words, that are obscene.
Don’t be obscure, please be concise.
Don’t use words, that are not nice.
Don’t stroke egos, like a phallus.
Don’t use words, filled with malice.
Don’t hurt feelings, when you write.
Critiques are for helping, so keep it tight.
By
Josehf Lloyd Murchison
Sometimes the mountain, it just can't be climbed;
Sometimes the day, just never seems to end.
Sometimes reality's, more suspect than mime;
Sometimes the answer's, just round the bend.
Sometimes the solution gets lost in the thought;
Sometimes the parable is blown in the wind.
Sometimes we don't necessarily, do that which we ought;
Sometimes man's vanity, is his ultimate sin.
Form:
The crack of the bat,
The roar of the crowd,
The smell of the earth,
In these hallowed fields.
The taste of the hotdog,
The sun in my face,
The warm gentle breeze,
In these hallowed fields.
The windup of the pitcher,
The call of the ump,
The anger of the batter,
In these hallowed fields.
The cheer of good friends,
The closeness of family,
The kiss of my spouse,
In these hallowed fields.
So creeped out by my own ideas,
So I am so bad as I seemed, because
So and so said so, and
So and so sees it, and I'm
So scared to be what I'm scared of, what
So and so is said to be, what is
So so bad, so bad as it seems, she's
So creeped out said so and so, and
So scared to see it for so long, and
So and so said so, with
So and so and so and so, so
So so so so so so so.
So very much done with this.
When there is no plan B
When all weighs heavily upon me
When all friends seem lost
When I have considered all the cost
When bills pile high
When all I want to do is cry
Then I will challenge problems anew
Then I will search for solutions through and through
Then I will give thanks to my Creator
Then I will silence my inner debater
Then I will offer up a song of praise
Then I will look for better days
Its the form of Anaphora wrote by me!!
Whilst I love You,I can't marry You,
Whilst I hate You,I can't forget You,
Whilst I owe You,I can't wrap You in my arms,
Mine Angel wherever You are, I'll be watching You!
Whilst You are my beautiful piece,I can't stitch You in my soul.
Whilst You are my breath,You can't fill me with oxygen,
Whilst I adore You,I can't place You in my heart
Mine Angel wherever You are, I'll be watching You!
Love is Gods infinite Love.
Love is His Love from above.
Love is a child's smile.
Love is to think of loved ones thru the miles.
Love is to watch a beautiful rose open.
Love is the pursuit of peace among men.
Love is the birth and re-birth of all life.
Love is to find hope among strife.
Love is true devotion to a loved one a friend.
Love is Gods divine love that has no end.

If time were just a coin,
cold weight I couldn’t join,
a silent circle, small,
pressed gently in my palm to fall.
If time were fleeting gold,
a glow too soft to hold,
it’d shimmer, then be gone,
a thought dissolving into dawn.
If time were borrowed breath,
a debt repaid in depth,
in moments kept unseen,
where quiet lingers in between.
If time were currency,
I’d spend it tenderly,
let every second glide
like dust through slowly shifting light.
Did you forget about the last time that I brought you through?
Did you forget that I was there to help you?
Did you forget that I am the creator who created you?
Did you forget that my arms are not to short that I can not reach?
Did you forget that my name is Shalom- the God of peace?
Did you forget I heard the last prayer that you prayed?
Did you forget that I am God and will be with you each day?

Return the happiness you have taken from me
If you will not share it with me than it has no place
within you. Return the happiness for my life has no
meaning no beginning or ending without it. Return
the happiness and try to remember how you once
loved me and how sweet and sincere your words fell
from your lips. Return the happiness for if you ever
loved me even the slightest bit you will allow me this
one final gift...
