Depth of Solitude

In the depth of solitude who will love me, 
when all fail to see me shining these dreams of mine in the depth of solitude.

Depp Depth

Johnny Depp was playing a role
That his wife would never console
He took her to court
And will not abort
'til one or both are on the dole!

GRIEF

Unseen
Tears shed often,
Measures the depth of grief,
So profound the ache, it grips you
Within.

Premium Member Hear What Eyes Are Saying

Eyes convey in their breaths, energy emanations from the soul. To listen to the eyes requires ears of the soul; listen mode.


Bottomless Depth

From the dark depth of the ocean
and the harrowing pit of the abyss
to the blazing nadir of hell,
Nothing is deeper than 
the deadening pain of a broken heart.

The Depth of a Rose

In the very depths of hell,
Lies a frozen rose in its hollowed soil,
 Bathed by scorching flames daily.
Yet it still survives by,
The love I once held for you.

I Felt Like I
Was Destroying
A Universe,
When I Stirred
My Coffee...

You Didn't 
See It, Though,
It Was Once
So Beautiful!

Depth

water water water
everywhere
in the eyes
and the oceans
and the clouds
in the eyes
depth of sadness
in the oceans
depth of life
in the clouds 
beam of hope

Premium Member The Depth of Your Reach

Be especially careful, you who would teach
  Observe well the depth of your reach

A moment's slip, imperceptible, on your part
  Rends the fabric of a pupil's heart

I was never enough

Love isn't what scares me...
  but the depth of love does !

I always look back & wonder 
  why I have never been enough

Now I see, I wasn't always 
   Only ONE to be ENOUGH !

Do Be Buried At a Deep Depth

Do Be Buried At A Deep Depth

What they would hear before death, 
There will be one last dying breath,
And each wave,
Over watery grave
Do have me buried at a deep depth.

Premium Member Her Depth of Despair

She returned to savor her childhood dreams
    the flowers by the brook, the trees by the stream

  She found a paved road, a boarded-up cabin
    her depth of despair, no developer imagines

Depth of a Breath Before Death

Depth of a Breath Before Death

When we have determined the depth,
Of wind blowing with our own breath,
And tree motion,
With our devotion;
We did take last one prior to our death.

Through the Depth of Your Despair

Through the depth of your despair, let me be the one who heals your wounded heart.
To prove that I mean you no harm, I place my heart beneath your feet but tread softly, 
for mine is just as fragile.

Premium Member Swirling In the Depth of the Shadow Land

swirling in the depth of the shadow land
A twirling blizzard of unrest,
chaos firmly in place

i felt lost,
bereft, alone,
until a hand reached out
pulling me in


a comfort
immediate
relief

Depth---Length

The "DEPTH" of one's life is the true measurement!....The "Length" is barely an inch!

Premium Member a depth of blue

the cold blue hovers
above the trembling fields
motionless silence


her eyes deep dark blue
capture a speck of the moon
along with my heart


as oceans whisper
stardust clouds play dress-up
draped in cosmic blue

Impressions
Bottomless Depth
In mind.
An unexplored
Blue world pursues to
Crawl inland.
Foaming
Fingers text

Left against
Golden grains
Of sand, receding.
Sonorous wave hum sound,
Back
To bottomless depth.

Of Depth

depth is a profound 
abyss that can be  
firmly filled with 
bottomless 
notions of 
metaphoric
intensity leading 
to the darkness of 
                  wisdom.

Depth of Soul

DEPTH OF SOUL:

You wouldnt give me the time or chance because all you would find is comfort and romance. 

You will not give me the chance to show what you already know...what I have...the difference is i have "DEPTH OF SOUL"

Premium Member Beneath the Depth of One's Skin

One shouldn't 

worry about the lack of good looks, my friend, 

for

our Lord has found the way to compensate him

by

hiding one's real beauty, beneath the depth 

of his skin!

The Depth of the Women's Heart

I know the highest Mount Everest like the back bone of the Earth,

I know the deepest the Challenger Deep like the arm pit of the Earth,

I know the highest mountain,I know the deepest Sea and depth,

I don't know the women's heart no,not know it's depth!
