Premium Member Why Does the Flower Fade

Why does splendor gray
Why does the flower fade
  Once a fair maiden
  Now an old maid
Beauty's virtue lies not in decay
Form: Rhyme


Premium Member Cameo-Fade Out

Upon my face of earthenware
So many feet have laid bare
Maiolica wearing thin-
My colours now growing dim
Revealing my kaolin

Premium Member I Fade

Effortless I fade 
It's not as hard as I thought 
Don't think about it 
Don't hold onto the fabric 
Let it slip through your fingers

I Slowly Fade

Honored by her presents ...
Astounded by her beauty ...
Soothed by her grace ...  
But sadly she is gone, and
without her I slowly fade.

Premium Member Summer Days Fade

shimmering days leave
sun’s cozy warmth and bright shine
fade tiptoeing soft
recollections tucked in heart
pining for amber grandeur
Form: Tanka


Premium Member Memories fade

Soft light drifts away,
broken thoughts like curling smoke,
meaning fades to air
brushing past my fingertips,
silent whispers lost in mist.

Premium Member They Fade Away

They fade away
Cold poems
Yellowed pages
Unread

Old warriors
Cold souls
Unsheathed
Blades dulled

Forgotten
Words
Buried
In tomes

I Will Not Fade Away

A single bloom on a thorny cacti
Cheerful and resilient. 
Scorching sun beating strong
Wild flower’s heart  stout and proud
O’er the barren land.

Silent Movies Fade Away

Silent movies from the past,
Quickly lose their tight grasp,
Seasons shake the residue,
Watch how change
makes all things new.

Fade Away

Fail
to not
succeed try
to make the grade
but never is your effort good enough
wish someone would see who you have become
struggles become
memories
fade a
way.

Soon To Fade (Cameo)

List’ning
I hear my heart beat
as silence exaggerates
the tempo
and the undying sound surely
subsides



Cameo syllable count is 2,5,7,3,8,7,2, unrhymed

Hopes and Dreams Fade the Same

my dreams
tethered
on a string
of thoughts

hope flickers
beneath 
clouded mind

wishes adrift
falling fast
on trails
of stars

then fading
within night

I Tried To Fade Away Today

I tried to fade away today
wishing Pandora had left hope in the box
Fighting to lose
In the most perfect skin
meet the blemish
Hopeful that the next blink will be the last

Past Fade Away

In my mind I thought the past would fade.

But it still stings my sould like a blade.

I wish I could let the pain go down the drain.

But I cant and everything remains the same.

We Fade From Our Dream

When we are facing this world
Fading light from your eyes
Fading touch from your soul
Fading breath from your heart
Fading love from your smile
Still. we fade from our dream

Friendships Fade

It's hard to be the glue
That holds us all together.
If I loosened my grip, 
You would both let me go
Without a second thought.
Only when you need me,
Would you notice I was gone.

Brain Fade

Putting words on paper is a struggle tonight

It seems that each line is a constant fight

I'm having a hard time to get things to rhyme

I put down my pen, knowing there will be a better time

Fade Out

The lights no longer here.
Inside my heart, silence and dark.
Misery has taken my life.
My desire of believing.
How could I mourn these days?

I lead my soul to emptiness.
None to be blamed but Me.

Fade Away

The sun has set
never to rise again
never will I see the light
that was my beautiful and trusted friend
Hope once rose with each new day
now only darkness surrounds
as I was made to fade away

They Will Fade

If for once you win this wonderful world
Don’t build your pride on the platter of pounds
And don’t plant your glory on the ground of glory
Like a feathered flower, they will one day fade and fall

Fade Into Shine

Someday, Some way
I will shine again
The light will hit my eyes
I'll no longer need to hide
The strength I have within
Will surely show again
This weakness that I feel
Will fade and disappear
Form: Lyric

Premium Member Fade Away

We voted them in and then cussed
They will be voted out in disgust
The arrogant charge
Of the leader at large
Will soon fade away like Pixie dust

Ripples Fade

Ripples fade on shore
as there will be next to fade
like a shipwrecked soul
who risks and writhes in defeat
like a dropping leaf on scream
