gravity saves me
watching my thoughts spin away
grasping to maintain
scraps from my reality
combine to keep me living

I saw your photo
And I didn't know,
It would hurt so much
My hand took my heart to clutch
Memories, I could touch

Other than rhyme, I never quite got other forms of poetry in the past.
Thanks to great poets like all of you, I believe I'm grasping it at last.

In piss-stained linens
and rented beds
they lay.
Grasping straws
of forgotten places
in time.
Begging the touch
of a spouse
long dead.

grasping the freedom of life's

Needless wanton hurt

fruit is good
the most stylish transvestite in any county
Cows are evil, ducks are good
a fly grasping warmth while perched on an integrated circuit

Budding, preening tendrils in winter sunshine
Flora grasping, creeping from terra firma
Standing breathless, dawn is a sapphire calyx
Hope springs eternal

Sapphic stanza
The moralists, twenty and two,
Know not what is like to ensue,
When, grasping but smidgeons,
They act as if pigeons;
They’ll probably hate me when through.

I stand
Rocking back and forth
Bending memories heal my wounds
Lost in winds that blow unseen
Grasping truth from drowning seas
Alone

With answer to call;
Grasping this rope, of loves pull,
Will you listen for its bell?
Heard eternally,
You are ringing in my heart!
Lovers sanctuary dwells!

Death.
Dark, longing.
Crying, sufficating, screaming.
Grasping hands tight on ones throat.
Clawing, choking, bleeding.
Blank, heartless.
Gone.

I sleep restlessly
Clinging, grasping, desperately
To what I must let go
In the last dream before waking
I am water that cuts stone

Visualizing memories of all the moments we shared,
Even those in which I was most angry, sad, exhausted, and scared.
Sadly, I am only now grasping how much you truly cared.

Silently Screaming
at the top of my lungs.
Dripping in Sweet Smiles
while my lungs fill with tears.
Until I'm
Drowning.
Grasping at the image of the girl I used to be.

Awaking flower fresh presence to dawn
Potential blossoming but falls
Charming beauty exquisitely forms
Beaming up higher leaving the floor
Flower to the sun grasping for more

gnarling branches are
grasping up, reaching for rain
in hopes to give life

Summer parched my dried lips turning fastly into rocked salt
Grasping for the water I kept for a moment like this one here
My mouth seizes the droplets that remain in my canteen
