Broken People

Broken people can’t help each other
They tear apart the love
Causing more damage
To the heart
To the soul
They end up broken together


Saved

The feeling of embrace
felt that it brought me grace
           to my hate 
           that i cannot erase   
to my tainted heart
that easily tear apart
by heavy words mark
into my heart

Hard To Ignore

sky blue eyes,
and warmth inside,
its from the smile,
of yours i hide,

for if i look,
into the heart,
it will be mine,
you tear apart,

and so i crept,
into the dark,
fearing love,
or a bright white spark...

My Puppeteer

Pull my strings, or I can't walk.
Pull my lever, so I can talk.		

Made of plastic, with no heart.
As you wish, to tear apart.

Put me back, on my shelf.
I am no good, by myself.

Round and round, so we go.
You pull my strings, that's all I know.

Premium Member Rags To Joy

Rags to Joy

Ragged dreams tear apart the dawn
Then invoke light in golden pearls
Weave back fractured fragments of reveries -
Banish moonlit chimera shadows -
In the nectar of sweet joy born of morning

Pain

Pain

It’s dark and twisted
Coming out from the inside
Pouring out to take whatever it wants
Taking what it doesn’t have
Wanting to tear apart every person in its path
Danger at every turn
Collapsing  my lungs
Crushing my soul
Breaking my heart
Tearing me apart
Pain

Logan Pass

I’m a poet devoid
of Cliff Notes
dissection
not my thing

Don’t ask me 
to explain my words 
I’d rather hum 
and sing

Explication 
penniless
in ghettos
of the word

Where vagrants
pull and tear apart
what only should
— be heard

Leftovers

If I could find
within my mind

a way to erase
all traces of time

Then I would start
to tear apart

words stuffed away 
in mind and heart

The ones that hide 
and still abide - 

the pain that feeds 
the hurt inside

And if I could
I surely would

leave only things 
left for the good

Loose Hearts

Loose hearts,
Linger,separate,
Tear apart.
Loose hearts,
Shrink.wilt,
Twig of life sours tart.
Loose hearts,
crumble,shudder
viscous words shoot in blacken darts.
Loose hearts,
tighten,strengthen,
venture towards a mended start.
Loose hearts,
weep, tangle, unite.
Love sprinkled over happy a la carte.

No Postage Necessary

your eyes mail me letters
letters i rip open
with suspense and wanting
words never spoken
dancing phrases
that i feel in my knees
unfold in my stomach

your eyes write me love notes
notes i tear apart
they glance down my body
sending cursive messages
punctuating each breast 
with an exclamation mark 
between my thighs

Someone told me about
wet ocher leaves
blanketing this colorless man,
standing still in places
that tear apart.

He had maps of dark paths
that he followed, 
sadly leading only to absence,
there falling away like viridian,
melting as do mummies 
in salt water,
changing from solid to flow,
opening tiny voids in his heart.

Empty Sorrow

Oh the horror and the sorrow 
It just goes on 
An endless sea of tomorrow 
When so young the body worship
Attached to flesh
We pay in tears for obsession
Breathtaking heart aching young love
Two souls entwined
But time will tear apart despite
from our hearts we birth new beings
hold and protect
But in the end just empty things

sensitivity

If I numb my feels,
It won’t bring me chills for real
My eyes are of teals

Sensitivity —
It’s kills and breaks me sorely
Tremendously so
Don’t break me or else…
I’ll tear apart at the seams 
Intrusive thoughts bleed…

Kindling kindness galore 
I don’t feel unmerciful anymore
Trust in me confidently
Believe in me, reflect on me

Mortal Remains

Tranquility brings solitude ,
Which tear apart all your emotions ,
In a hope to align your emotions,
You lose its significance ;
Bringing emotions from emotionless things ,
Is just like finding emotions from mortal remains ,
Everything gets blurred ,
And it eventually fades away ,
Leaving a string of sadness and melancholy apprehension.

Hurt Heart Which Was Torn Apart

Hurt Heart which Was Torn Apart

when I hurt my heart
no longer love from the start
will brake and tear apart

current heart has to do
go ahead and drink a few
trouble about to brew

adjust my thermostat
what we knew right off the bat
will buy cat named Pat

when dumber than doormat
had my hat hangingg from thermostat
while being a big brat

Break Me up to Starlight

Break me up to starlight
Tear apart these walls
Break me up to starlight
'Till nothing else recalls

Each crushing wave
Transforms the pain
Into pure light
Again... again...
Your force Divine
Makes crystals shine

Pierce through my shell
With burning Grace
As I dispel
What You erase

Break me up to starlight...
Break me up to starlight...

Cailyn

we have been friends for years.
You always want to bring me tears.
I donk know how you feel.
I just know i want to steal, your heart.
I promise i wont tear apart, your soul.
Your love just makes me lose control.
You cry on my shoulder at night.
Why dont you leave him yall always fight.
I cannot win your love this time.
So i went and made you this ryhme.

An Honorable Man

My dad is a man
who is always there,
He wipes away my tears
and shows me he cares.

He is a man who
has about the biggest heart,
And an undying love
for those dear to his heart.

He says "what a Kawinkie dink"
to make me smile,
His smile shines farther
than a mile.

He has a special 
place in my heart,
A place that no storm
could ever tear apart.

With This Lie

With this lie

I will slowly let you die

My love for you is fake

But your heart is all mine to take

And with your heart, I will not mend the broken

Instead I will use it as a token

A token of your life

That will be perfect for my knife

And in the end I will leave

For I am a thieve

Of your poor little broken heart

Which I will only farther tear apart

Premium Member Sheba Readies Herself

Sheba woke up happily, eager to tear apart her competitor
Not in a mean devouring teeth-out, sharpen her claws way
She would do it as a lioness would, approaching slowly.
Giving her prey a sense of peace and hope

Springing at the perfect time
Before the woman’s defenses were up
Tearing her competitor’s edges into bits.
Eating the woman’s chances at stealing her promotion.

Through Different Hands

We cradle dreams, we build, we break, we heal,
In labor, love, and loss, calloused hands reveal.
Life lines drawn in the palm of my hand,
Scars from touches too plain to understand.

Hands that mend, yet leave their marks on the heart,
Building and destroying with every part.
The same hand that nurtures, can tear apart,
Tactile power woven into each scarred start.

A Place

Forever in this heart of mine
You will hold a place and time
Ask and i will let you in
Hold you close and be your friend
Forever will my love be here
Holding on to you dear
Never will it stray or die
For if I lost you I would cry
Until the sea's over flow
And the stars loss their glow
You will be here in my heart
A place noone can tear apart
I made it there just for you
Cause honey you make my dreams come true

Premium Member African Watering Hole

African watering hole is a spiritually sacred spot
there is an understood truce when the animals appear
ancestral ancient spirits keep watch and peace
over cranes, zebras, tigers, gulls and giraffes
tigers, tigers, cobras and mosquitoes are welcome
none would dare tear apart an animal here or give them malaria
father lion is watching as is mother ape and brother python
African watering hole is a spiritually sacred spot

Premium Member Love

Love is like a masterpiece
Framed with a gilded edge,
Unmatched for worth or beauty
Like a pure unbroken pledge.
Love entwines and folds us
In everlasting arms,
Embraces all our sorrows
Releases our alarms.
Love does not come and go
In the whimsical affair,
It constant hovers over us
In kind, endearing care.
Love binds and holds together
Not a rift can tear apart,
In solemn, awesome pleasure
It lives within the heart.
