Premium Member lost innocence

ego energised eddy currents betray
serpentine spirals of subterfuge 
heart too shy to emote love
till God be soul’s refuge

Stigma

Everywhere I go
It is sure to follow--
Up and down and all around.
It does me no good to stay away
In the end it will only me betray

When Pen and Paper Collide

Prostitute your thoughts
All your feelings overflow
Substitute your mind
When life deals you a big blow
Do not betray your insides

Lost Inside

Those who betray their dreams
are forever old

Living between denial
—and what might have been

(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2020)


Silencing the Fire

Released from
the inferno
Tongue of Satan
to betray
Saving words
from his fury
Muting the serpent
—today

(Dreamsleep: June, 2022)

Elegy

Judging by who was in the room at the time when Jesus said “one of you will betray me.” One seems to me to be a very conservative estimate.

KAMIKAZE LOVE AFFAIR

OH THAT MY MOUTH WOULD NOT BETRAY MY HEART AND MY ACTIONS CONFUSE INTENT. MAYBE THEN I COULD MAKE YOU SEE THE WAY MY SOUL CRIES OUT FOR YOU.

Second-Chance

Betray not I Beg
                                    Let betrothal be upheld;

Fainting

Fainting

My heart,
how you betray me,
rogue rhythms
steal my conscious
thoughts...
Darkness
embraces.
Only hope
awakens
me.

Ascending Lark

Love 
You betray us
In this dark
We buried you
In Central Park
Gospel eyes
Ascending upward,
Again, this lark, as
Far as the eyes can see

The Lord Your God

Love your God.
And in Him take pride.
And no matter what,
Stay by His side.

Don't ever betray,
Your holy one,
Because He loves you,
Your His son.

The Aging Tree

The tree stands stately
A thousand rings betray age
The birds sing like sages
Gnarled trunk suffers all weathers
Light dew moistens bird feathers

Cat and the paper

A curious cat hid from view,
In a sheet, thinking "I'm anew".
But its tail did betray,
Its hiding place in play,
The lady rushed by, none the wiser too.

Bore

Bore; my only companion who leaves me not
I long and wait, tired though I get
Sleep comes, goes and again comes, teases
Fatigue rules, bones betray and I long...

Premium Member Busted

Fingerprint markings on the fridge.
Tiny clues that betray mischief and secrets.
Slice of cake is missing.

Premium Member All It Does Is Rain

All it does is rain 
words betray
and are meant to decieve 
depending on your standing 
or your aim
what you say
may not be well received.
All it does is rain.

Wait For Return

rain returns to sea
sky knows her moon will return.
do bees betray buds?
If life springs from buried seeds,
can't I wait for your return?

Fighting, a castrated peace
Open cuts, betray
