Gasping for a breathe of fresh air,
Escape....

Despite a gravitational proclivity
And atmospheric tranquility 
My stifled creativity
A lesson in humility...

A Big Difference
Burps are often stifled,
But belches should be loud.
When burping one looks sheepish,
When belching one looks proud....

Nature's Tears
nature's emotions
cascade over mountain's edge
her stifled cries heard

The sun rose ablaze against blue__
Cobalt blue clouds, skies icy cold 
stifled my desire for porch view
oh! just a second to gaze_ behold.

Expressing
digesting
protesting
frustratedly stifled.

Projecting
rejecting
infecting
frustratedly rifled.

October Senility
Autumn glides away, 
Naked boughs stare at their clothes
Welt'ring in the clay. 

O hear! The cherry's cry, 
Her wail does ooze up the earth
Till stifled to die....

At a dead man’s throat lies the rain drenched woolen scarf that stifled his screams. Cold Winds howl through decayed trees - witnesses in the shadows.

Stale Air
When we were young, 
New lovers discovering, 
Hot flesh sliding, 
It was fresh.

But now memories of before, 
Stale and settled, 
Cloud my lungs and each breath seems stifled...

Stifled
Do 
not
allow 
another
to restrain your pen,
stifling your creativity.
I will never allow another to mute my voice
or gag my creative expression, writing to impress others and neither should you....

Vincent's Starry Night
Sky, blue as your mood
Yellow stars, hope for the light
New morning rebirth, to paint
Away the demons
Of the night, obsessed with a 
love, stifled under bright moon

Hearts Confession
hearts confession 
soul set free from 
bondage 
flying free 
shoring above 
unmeant desires 
of the spirit of love 
that had been stifled 
trapped underneath 
the regrets of the past
that were left unmended
till now...

Shush...Did you hear that? 
Stifled pleads gesture forward
Cameras, blind us
from penetrating bright light
No one calls, simply records

Lost Stitches
If you can’t stand the criticism
put down your pen
Instead take up knitting
but caution the thread
Too thick and your stifled
too thin and your bare
As needles purl over
—what hides in despair

The Onset of Crestfallen Poetry
Stifled tears
Recorded in
The pages of
An old diary
Made immortal
In the hearts of
Kindred souls
Awakened
By the dawns of
Early light
Cradled thoughts
Luminous indeed
A way for the soul to
Release its many burdens of
Life and lost love...

A Sketch
Hibiscus drooped, sheds
Petals in the gust of rain ...
A broken heart dies

Swallows swivel rain
Above water stifled grass .. .
Memories of joy

Light covers the earth
And dust make rainbows appear ...
I am that poem

Sky and tablecloth of stars....

Premium Member My Neck Aches
Gateway stars
Your colors wrap around my dimension
In other words here we go again
My glorious accusation
The stifled flights
I was stolen from our mother
Celestial moons are finding their way to the breakfast table
I’m too tired to feast
My neck aches...

Hope Deferred
MY HEART
IS A WOUNDED BIRD
WINGS QUIVERING
IN SILENT PAIN
WITH STIFLED BREATH 
UNABLE TO FLY
PALED FROM BATTLE
MY HEART 
IS AN ICEBERG
WEIGHED HEAVY
IN MY CHEST
FOGGING MY THOUGHT
WITH COLD MIST
RAINING DOWN 
MY SKIN, INSIDE.
