Premium Member A Twinkle In the Sky

Are we more than just a twinkle in the sky
     More than a reflection of someone’s eye
Where to find meaning, an endless pursuit
     With so many thoughts, my mind can’t compute

Perhaps it’s best not to struggle in vain
     For what we don’t know, causing us pain
To accept and be grateful that we’re here today
     Let such contemplation just dwindle away

Perfect Isolation

“PERFECT ISOLATION”

Days drift from one to another
nights restless--gray
steadily... mundane monotony loses magnitude

Obligatory conversation—social interaction
dwindle away
intolerable interruptions of the small minded

Finally boundless to envision all—over analyse
creative minds play
protected by clever syntax of the word

Perfect Island
Perfect Peace
Perfect Isolation

The Elevating Mirth

Listening intently,
My ears draw towards the softest of music
Glistening instantly,
My fears die away… and I find it so therapeutic

I gratefully write this poem
Since I haven’t wrote one in so long…I can’t stand the wait
I spiritedly dance in flawless rhythm 
Since I haven’t used my energy in so long…I don’t feel all that great

Flittering ecstatically,
My wings began to elevate in a most treasurable way 
Spluttering playfully,
My tears dry away… and my laughter makes the tune dwindle away

Man Made

Before the mirage of this world
bid you walk through it,
that mind you were in
chose to be
what you chose to see.

Mankind did not evolve
it was self-created.

If humanity collectively
chose not to exist,
or to dwindle away
it would.

If you alone choose
for this world to be heaven
you can prophesize it
into being,
all the rest of reality
would bend to your will.

We were given dominion
over heaven and hell,
over all things unreal,

for all is an idea
we make true.

Premium Member Waiting

She tried to stay in good spirits
but each Christmas the heart grew numb
she waited - Anticipated
but true love never did come
The body grew old and weary
the bones did rattle and shake
her hope did dwindle away
and the heart did finally break
Waiting & lonely for so many years
wishing and hoping for Love
sadness entered her soul
until she entered heaven above
Now she can celebrate Christmas
her waiting days are done
surrounded by her loved ones
her days now bright and fun.
