towards Regret,
so Redundant.

the emptiness,
only Reveals
the loneliness.

Premium Member Pacification

Pacification His horrid hunger cries for total fulfillment; overrules his mind. Diversion is no answer; addiction rules his sad world. Pacification is never the solution. He will cry for more. Starvation and withdrawal may end this deadly hunger. Sandra M. Haight ~3rd Place~ Contest: Images That Make You Think. Sponsor: Silent One Image #3 Judged: 04/14/2016

FINGERS

An ultimate reach to the tips of desire,
That heavenly touch
Overrules the mind, sets afire

Salesman, preacher, teacher,
All circle, point, sign,
Being quite unconscious of their design

Fingers may travel a path of their own,
Having shape, body, joints,
Purpose down to the bone

And when all that’s left is final reflex, 
Warmth, carnal knowledge gone,
The very tips will bid adieu before one moves along

Dave Austin

Lessons Learned

The heart knows it's nemesis
And guards from each attack
But somehow it always falters
And the pain keeps coming back

Your mind acts as a sentry
Deciding who to believe
Choosing those to welcome
Who mean not to deceive

But the heart takes precedence
And overrules the mind
A malignant burst of emotion
That once was so benign

Lessons learned cast aside
Your destined to repeat
Mistakes once learned but now forgotten
With the very next one you meet

In Marked Territory

The ruler of his kingdom
He designates the lines
The pieces that belong to him
His subjects and their lives 

He rules with domination
His disciples are but fools
This powerful head of state 
Oversees and overrules 

His commanding reign of tyranny
A symptom of his fear
That the truth of his own worthiness 
Seep through his brusque veneer 

Deep within marked territory 
A little boy survives
A little boy who measures worth
On the ability to rule lives

Deserving Fruit.

Hate it when some one says
"You are Wrong."
Hate it when some one says
"Check your-self"
Hate it when someone says 
something right at my dignity.
My Pride is My pride.
My self-respect overrules you all.
Then up in hell,
Lost to answer his question,
Why did You not admit you were wrong,
when they kept saying check yourself.
If Never learned the lesson of life,
Being Humble and having humility
Never learned anything at all,
Only learned hell.
Your fruit is then your choice.

My Daughters

D ark day will sometimes arrive
A nd when I think of my daughters I feel so alive!
U conditional love keeps me strong
G od's blessings never go wrong
H appeness overrules all my sadness
T hose three little girls I love with all I possess!
E ven if I'm having a bad day and things aren't going right;
R ed cheeks of laughter with my babies at play is a wonderful sight!
S o when dark moments arrive I think of them and feel so alive!!!!
