Chasing Aug-23

Dreams gallop up the mountains
ascending like a wild spirit set free.
Meanwhile we step onto the path,
trepidation up to our knees.

The onset of fear and trepidation

Spawned by ominous imagination

Is quelled through daily meditation

And the strength of love and inspiration
Form: Rhyme

Trepidation

Mind races endlessly

Need decision now

Only one direction possible

Possibilities endless

Quorum of the mind, heart, soul, and gut is hung on the moment.

Premium Member Dear John

I opened the mail with trepidation 
Reading the words with great hesitation 
	Stunned at the message 
	My life a wreckage 
She’d wed another–humiliation.

The Movie

Have a blessed birthday, Shirley, 
Horror film brings agitation; 
The movie's story is scary, 
Causing fright and trepidation.

The pulse
Throbbing pounding
Feelings of entrapment
Fear worry angst trepidation
         Great pain
Breathless elation ecstasy
Passion freedom amour
Tender secure
          Painless

The Honest Merchant

My friend is shy, ‘cause we call her ‘Pumpkin’.
With great trepidation, she enters the gym
A look at her behind;
And the instructor declined.
“By the time ‘YOU’ are thin, fat will be ‘IN’”

Leporidae

Twitch, twitch - noses in constant action
Hop, pause, hop - bodies in flight preparation
Stand, timidly posed - awaiting in anticipation
Sniff, nuzzle - bunnies interacting with trepidation

Reluctant Reproach

Adversaries are none
When trepidation emerges
Rhetoric voices undone
Temper surges

Contrive modes of destruction
Follows continuous bashing
Unequivocal construction
Without talk trashing

Premium Member She Pride

Her

echo

seeking hope.

Lush sensual

dreams fill her abode.

Her constitution strong,

a dissociation from

her days of fear and trepidation.

The lioness within her is her pride.

The Woods

Spoke of, as tiptoed through
With trepidation.
"Each fierce life-shaping clue
Throws a possessed look!"

In fables, darkest read.
Darkest of routing
In, out, bamboozling led
None creepier spook.

Eitaphs From Beyond

When I die from Anxiety
I hope Serenity,will revive my Telepathy
And together in Trepidation,
The Free-will of Temptation
Will rejoin with my Sonic Sensations
And bring forth Light,
Bright But Understanding

Harbor

when the night bleeds
and harbors trepidation
I reach for you
my light
to shepherd away the fear
to engulf me in your inner beauty
enveloped in every heartfelt kiss 
and maybe for just one minute 
the world might seem alright

Battling Mind

 
A whirlwind of emotions A cyclone of wandering thoughts A tempest of trepidation That leaves me baffled and distraught The devastation of my battling mind Wreaks havoc in the soul's sacred shrine.

Premium Member Fog In Those Eyes



On my job, every December was

faced with cautious trepidation.

In heavy fog, others kept passing me.

From valley to Bay,  fog was blinding.

It was safer to follow big rigs

With eyes glued to their tail lights.
Form: Verse

Alone

Alone

Suffocating in solitude
Drowning in dark despair
Languishing longingly in lost love

Forever in fear of fallings fatal flaws

Bent, broken, battered and bruised
Tired of timid trepidation
Complacent and content

Alone

Trepidation

Lurking around each corner 
Waiting to blanket 
   Hopes
   Dreams 
   Desires 
Ready to squander 
   Love 
   Goals
   Lust 
Reckless and ruthless 
Heed those days of yore 
Always at hand

My Fear

Chills silvering down my spine
Cold sweat down my forehead
Trepidation coercing through my limbs
Teeth shivering; skin crawling
Pure unadulterated fear;
And then with great force
And beautiful agility
My husband
steps
On the little
spider!

Fifty Shades

My wife read Fifty Shades last week
It’s gone right to ‘er ‘ead
Now I lies in trepidation
Every time I goes to bed
Just yesterday she came in nude
And chained me up, real tight
She snapped the lock, put on her frock
Then buggered off all night

Premium Member Fault of Being Human

In the most anguished moments of my life
times when my mistakes cause me strife
I feel I deserve a birch wood beating
to go unpunished would be cheating 
and then I recall
that through it all    
with trepidation loomin'   
I am only human

Afraid To Breathe

The tick tock of the clock
Never stops
In quiet trepidation
My heart doesn't beat, it knocks
Insomniac and mind tripping
I see my life slipping
I want to breathe in air
Never again be scared
But the only thing that clings to me
Is constant worry and despair

    I am only human

Premium Member May Triolet

Each May begins in trepidation
To darker grow each passing day.
My birth month never brings elation.
Each May begins, in trepidation
I move forth in protestation,
One more year to fade away.
Each May begins in trepidation
To darker grow each passing day...
