Stranded Heart

His heart stranded in the dark 
stands alone under the rain 
of tears that soaks his sad soul 
feeling the cold chill.

Premium Member If I Get Shipwrecked

choice of victuals to be stranded with
Beans, macaroons, fudge,
Cinnamon rolls, sugar for coffee
If I get shipwrecked

Buttons

No respiration 
Stranded and moored blue buttons
Drying on the strand

Lost and Found

Stranded in the dark,
Blindly we all seek out light,
Some never realize,
That being lost is so close,
To finally being found.

seven seas of ink
                          words by craft ferry the soul
                                to deaf islands break

The tempest dins glass
where once a dawning face beamed
painted lips sipped tea
as the phone rings, plans and swells crash

A Cold Wind

In fear of your abandon,
afraid of letting go

Alone and feeling stranded,
bereft—no kindness shown

Lifelong searches
holding heart lit torches
left her stranded inside dark when
winds quelled the held flame while
sounding her name.

Earthlings

without our longings,

                                   what's the point of our strivings,

            small, stranded earthlings ?

Sailing

Life is so serene
Sailing along the ocean....
Stranded with no tow

Wave floods over bow
three tiered cake melts in the noon
June sunshine

Premium Member Onward It Goes

summer was over in a wink
and dreams would get left behind
stranded and forgotten
that's just the way of it

stranded on the beach
a wash of sand-orange blue-
brushmarks lost from view

colour gives away
in signature vivid hues-
picturesque and new
art

Encased in darkness
neither here there anywhere,
locked in misery
a reminder each day
the devil keeps his promise.

Stranded

I-nclement weather
M-akes the passengers cheesed off, 
C-anceling travel.

Words - Tanka Poem

Those words bruised my soul
strummed my mysterious heart 
with needled fingers 
scrubbed my deluded mind
stranded me, in a deep mire

The One I Used To Know

The One I Used To Know

By Nathan Hannen

After my heart shattered my love leaked into another
You left me cold and sad, Stranded in myself

The End.

Howl;
I’m throbbing 
blanket of stillness;
It’s too loud to hear the scream;
Wail,
stranded obscenely inside;
Fiercely constricted 
by my thoughts 
shrill.

Balance Sheets

Without our longings,
what's the point of our strivings,
small, stranded earthlings?

Balance sheets the same,
but for the decimal points
of wealth, love or fame!

Autumnal Rising

Body of south breeze
Seized by the falling maple
Stranded gold field
On the door of autumn sun
Nature turns to rise thyself

Stranded

Sundown city,
Sunday stranger.

     Storm-swept,
     neon-dimmed night.

Stranded, solitary,
lonesome wayfarer.

     'neath a hollow,
     homesick half-light.

Voice

This may be a voice
as it calls you in
In my stride
a step
These may be words
as they reel you in
In me
a lifetime's strike,
This may be 
me...
this stranded voice

Premium Member Cuatro - Stranded



When my mom left me,
          I felt like a balloon floating;
                         stranded and helpless,
         but mom's strength taught-  has been the key . . .
