Fallen Red

She departs under
A canopy of deep red-
Foliage of farewell.
I drift like leaves falling dry
Discarded and not wanted.

One is chosen from the 
Crowd and reaches his goal
To become famous everyone else
Stays wanting watching as 
Fame departs.

Celestial War

unexploded shell
   soldiers trying to defuse
   silence now departs
   leaving them no time to lose
   heaven fights again with hell

Premium Member A Sweet Scent

A re rose doth comfort a faint heart,
When love lingers 'ere life departs.

Inspired by the 1597 quotation of William Langham ,herbalist.


Another Fall

Green departs to seek
a more fulfilling role, which
it found in your eyes - 

more glorious than trees that
fade (like me) to muted brown

Fools game
So lame

she thinks 
he stinks

he farts

for love, three hearts yearn 
into the sunset...two ride 
one heart dies, alone 

A love triangle tween three yearning hearts 
Two have moved on, sadly, one departs

From Winston:
“When youth departs
  —may wisdom prove enough”

To Winston:
“When spirit falters
  —all will to then prevail”

Premium Member No Smile

Starving little turtle
Cracked eggshells
Lost relationships
Broken dreams
Falling teeth
Death opens the door
Train departs from platform
No one
Waves of emotions
No more

Premium Member Vignette- Strings & Harps

A vaporetto upon the sea
A love departs that could never be-
Tears trickle down  face,
Mahler played at his slowest pace,
Langsum,adagietto-slow.

Premium Member Eternal Flame

A baby is born
   Dawns a new morn
A centenarian passes away
   Sad close to a day 

A new life arrives
   An older departs --
Transmitted, the flame 
   ~ of a human heart

Voices Silenced

Rushing waters,
bleeding hearts

Autumn winds,
the past departs

Voices silenced,
the coming rain

Ice forming
—to freeze the pain

Premium Member One Pale Day

One day, you might say
There was no good morning
One day, I can say
Isn’t quite the same
One day, looks like rain
Comes without a warning
One day, pale day
Departs away like train.

Midheaven

In this midheaven of demigods.
beneath this semidetached shelter 
of semi-manufactured souls.
apart from the half-hearted's dimidiate 
the bright-half departs 
for dovetailing all of our halves.

Anybody Know the Tune That Goes Hf Hg Jgjjkk Jkk

No leg unpulled
Pulled up by the people i love
down by the crowd
feeling mys el  f                      come  apart
Madness losing to sanity
Don't go pours from my dark
As the last of me departs

Leave and Stay

Who departs,
         there, is left broken..
         who stays    
        remains gloomy
        I've suffered in the
        both ways and
        I didn't learn any
         of this art... !

Orange Touches My Sky

Orange touches my sky
As the sun departs
Leaving me alone with you
And as he disappears
Giving life to the moon
He knows
We don’t need him anymore
What is light
When you have love
To lead the way?

Premium Member Mission to Mars

The rocket launch recliner
propels her to the moon;
with Ativan for fuel,
she’ll be to Saturn soon.
When shortly she returns,
both feet upon the land,
and Benadryl departs,
I hope the trip was grand!

On My Knees I Pray

Pray your love never departs
on my knees i cry out
i hold my hands together like once we were

i try so hard to understand
you have moved on to another man

i hang on to a shadow of yesterday
on my knees i pray

Ever Green Tree

Every year trees shed their leaves
Which carry along their pain and worries
I am a strange sort of tree
My leaves increase
but never departs me
Spring is the favourite season for all
Trees like me long for the fall

Signs of Future Times

Lean in just to hear you speak
Engage that mind of yours
Prophetic creatures closing speech
Departs through tiny doors

Backwards up in front
Forwards left behind
Can't just stop
Can't be done
The end has just begun

Affairs of the Heart

slowly it builds
quickly it falls
indifference met
a shadowed wall

love that sings
from deep heartstings
a single note
a deafening ring

affairs of the heart
painted, abstract art
a disappearing act
as it departs

Rest in Peace if you can Jonathan Jones
As the spirit departs your flesh and bones
For years you led a philandering life
Now lie fore'er next your embittered wife

Premium Member Lost At Sea

A placid dose abducts barren perceptions, wherefore virtue departs in the nakedness stretch passionately, dawning motivations, transcendent intrinsic structuring success. Epic fuse a star--at sea--sunk translations.
