pain

Pierced through the apex
Emotion motioned to motive
Aligned with hate
the virtue of anger
condoning the blatancy of a shelly fate.

Love is really beautiful
But for those who are
Addicted to two
Never think about
The third person
It's pure selfish motive
Not selfless love.

Be Happy Anyway

Accept what is in ur play
Don't be grey
Keep going on the ray
Have your say
No pressure to stay
Do not let your mind sway
Follow your way
Be happy anyway

Be your motivation
For restoration.

My First Five Liner

The 
writing 
motive 
was 
strong
Obey 
it 
I 
must.
To 
the 
picture 
I 
head
But 
help 
less 
it 
was. 
Then 
I 
learnt
Inspiration 
cometh 
not 
from 
it!

Disposable Love

I crave that blade that slits my wrist,
I’m not afraid of this.
To ease the pain this wicked way, leave
it be to remain twisted I’m not ok.
Devoted to cut was the motive for blood,
Disposable Love.

love in love with love has no name devoid of motive, joy the aim ineffable throbbing current mist of bliss, in fullness vibrant offers no anchor, for mind games 19-July-2021

Jibber Jabber

Jibber jabber rambling and gambling of words,

thoughtful sounds of meaningless intent,

unanswered calls for the insightful motive,

simple as such, silly as much,

jotting the illogical flow of blurbs.

A Mistake

A mistake 
Probably a misunderstanding
Or misinterpretation
 
A memory
Probably a poor mentality
Or misjudgement

A movement
Probably on a move
Or misguided

A motive 
Probably a motivation
Or a mistake

Now Is the Time

Now is the time 
To show everyone that you can achieve 
Remove all self-doubt 
Be the one to believe 
Take those steps forward
Promote the positive 
You have it all in you
Rising up should be the fierce motive

Premium Member Sayings

Happy feels easy
Sorrow heaps plenty


Sadness feels heavy
Placid prompts cheery


Motive moves fancy
Discrete sows amply 


Divine mind inspires
Human kind conspires

Cradled
to be a man;
with knowledge of wisdom.
True convictions lasting daily
never questioning why or answering
with an unintended motive.
Sacrificial and brave
which was born and
Cradled

What Meditation

W What slithers in the mind, gnaws at my peace
O Other people's words, to which I assign a motive
R Rather dwell on verses of Scripture, sonnet or verse
D Deliberating on sounds cast awind, torture me alive

Motive

[...] corações bondosos 
são os jardins, 
pensamentos amáveis 
são as raízes, 
palavras amáveis são as flores
ações amáveis são os frutos.

Em resumo:
você pode motivar melhor
com palavras gentis 
do que com um chicote.

Premium Member Smiles

Smiles
Real smiles
Phony smiles
Trick pony smiles
Gray stony buck wild
Ulterior motive styled
Easy to drink like water
Cheesy white dreams you slaughter
Captured by a whimsical soul’s smile
Black and gold stories told by them so loud

Premium Member Hmmm

jockeying for position
requires a motive
which is a euphemism 
for egocentric desire

yet if our heart
be playful and childlike 
there is no bondage
for spontaneous spirit

save man
all life forms live
as such
in the now continuum

Difficult To Proceed

Difficult to proceed.
Without motive we can't stand to lead.

Silence surrounds us and
were just not as strong as we 
once were.

Let me tell you the plan before
your feet reach the floor.
While your waiting,
here's another chore 
your built for.

Loco Motive

be my engineer
heat me to
boiling

open my mouth
stoke my fire
shoveling

words in
but save
one

chunk of
coal that
was

heated
but now
has cooled

and as is time
for all time
this will be

ours as coal 
becomes a
diamond

Oh! vagrant life, your motive unknown,
for what do you acknowledge me? 
and why am i a pawn?
why fix un-broken entity's?
why lead to deep desire?
and overpowering uncertainty
through all vanity,  yet to be..' 
immolated in eternity's fire.."
