Short Palpitates Poems

Sparkling eyes open

Jubilant heart palpitates

Conquering love sighs

Expectations balanced on years passed
Childhood fading schooldays are last.
In the eyes of the world your decisions are true
Your heart palpitates and you stumble through.
Life was once easy, adults took care
Now it’s just me, there’s nobody there.
You grow and you yearn for the age to come
Now you want back to when you were young.
With freedom , responsibility plays
Leaves you longing for all of those carefree days...

There's a thorn within me
Piercing my chest when I breathe
Stabbing my ribs when I laugh
Causing me pain when I work

It's a sinister thorn
I've had it all through my life
It beats every day to keep me alive
But the thorn within is killing me now

Even when I'm still
It palpitates in a frenzy
Short of breath, I stop to recover
The thorn within laughs

I'd beg it to stop
But I'd die along with it
Laughing as it kills me
The thorn within beats out its rhythm...

Heart,
A Pumping blood organ,
That 
Feels pain,
When someone degrading  life,
That
Serving only by him.

Heart 
Always having prosperity,
Thoughts and dreams,
Becomes living,
When 
Blood runs through nerves.

Heart palpitates,
When
Air,
Fills a bladder of lungs.
Breath accelerates heart,
To breathing a life.

Blood, a Traveler,
Delivers happiness and sorrows,
Feels encouragement,
And discourages itself,
When it feels,
Someone had broken him....

Just like clouds,
Life wanders,
Upwards and downwards,
Backwards and forwards,
Circumstances as wind,
Accelerates breathing,
And brings hope,
As lungs,
Blows up and down and living,
Palpitates as heart beat.
And flows as blood in veins,
Without any headache,
Cold or heat,
Weather never disturbs,
Drinking, eating and sleeping,
Always gets tired and seeking change,
Only for taste, sweet or sour,
Only our efforts are. 
You targeted me,
My prey was an achievement....

My heart in motion 
palpitates a wild tarantella, 
resonates vibrant valves 
and grieves for you, 
my choosing. 

Then juiced on devotion, 
elevates a blue umbrella, 
supplicates and salves, 
in letting go, 
fears losing. 

The reversal of motion 
integrates calming distance, 
initiates fast retreat, 
this failing heart 
lest I forget it. 

No more to cry an ocean, 
abdicates my once insistence, 
resuscitate a love so sweet 
become my life, 
and not regret it....
