Postpartum

Tis a cruel twist of fate
When in love a child is born;
What once was love becomes hate
When fruit of union she doth scorn.

Poker

I shuffle the cards
a five card deal
I parlay true love
you ante sex appeal

my poker hand good
a queen high straight
I win your heart
a twist of fate

Sequence of events 
Change in a moment your life 
For better or worse
Shaking the beliefs you had
Buried deeply in your mind

Twist Of Fate

Sitting alone, empty chairs, hollow feeling
She's looking sad, devoid of something
'Till someone giving her bouquet of flower
Sudden change of atmosphere in the air.

Our Jhat was a boisterous hound
He loved to run, romp, and play
He started as the runt yet a clown
His antics stole our hearts away
We lost him in a sad twist of fate


Before It's Too Late

we dnt kno our future, only the past. When it comes 2 our loved ones we dont kno how long our time will last. In our lives can be a twist of fate. So we must tell them WE LUV THEM BEFOR ITS 2 LATE :(

The Hand

A twist of fate
Lead as it will
Showering everyone

Scripts written
Seemingly by chance
As we walk

The hand writes

Reading the words
Paper is forgotten
Now drifting

Drawn to the flame
Blinded in light
Let it go

The hand writes

Premium Member Surface To Air Maigc 9

Surrounded by your hair
with that scent I bombinate,
fall to pieces right here;
We sit just baking in the Sun,
no need for a chair;
I want to lay my head on your shoulder,
I swear you ignite such a flare;
With a twist of fate
surface to air.

Parlayed about a twist of fate His shredded character remains All sought to burn and swiftly end Yet he persists from autoclave Turning down a meaningless debate Sarcastic tongue with wily pen Smooths the path, a wake revered So few achieve his place of Zen

To Have and To Hold

Twist of fate
Slice of life
A moment to late
Overcoming the strife
Summer of love
Song in my heart
Prayers to the above
Sweet nothings to part
Wisdom of age
Question of youth
History to guage
Kiss in a booth
Warmth of her touch
Story to be told
Love you so much
To have and to hold

I cannot tell what the dickens his name is.’
(The Merry Wives of Windsor, Act 3, Scene 2)

by Shakespeare

I have a real tale to tell
of two cities.
I need an author
of some note.
I heard of one whose
first name is Charles.
My name is Oliver and by
some twist of fate, I can’t
remember Charles’s last name!

one leaf turns
yellow
one lets go
summer lingers
fall shadows
a cool gust
a twist of fate
as we live
for the day
one passage
leads to another
one passage
for the day
as we live
a twist of fate
a cool gust
fall shadows
summer lingers
one lets go
yellow
one leaf turns

The Intimidator Dale Earnhardt

He is a nascar legend,no one will forget his name.
He drove with an attitude on the track, racing was his game.
The intimidator is what they called him,his car was number three.
He won the hearts of many but now his soul is free.
His accident was such a terrible twist of fate.
But now he's up in heaven looking down on eighty-eight.

Fate

A twist of fate is all one needs
That one simple event can change all others with ease
Most search for it day by day
And yet only a few grasp it and float away
For only when you grab your fate and take it by the horns
Then will the golden crown you adorn
Then on that day you realize
You've watched it all through someone elses eyes

Underneath

Underneath
Rock bottom
 Empty bottle 
full throttle 
disregard 
present tense
 crumbling Castle
 mended fence
 fully engaged 
Insanities remorse
Left to bleed 
trial 
No court 
woke up 
 grateful 
poised to win 
 Earth pulls
friendships end
Complacent 
pavement 
and my Face met 
not the end 
twist of fate I'm
try again

Suicide

When they found you it was too late
Standing there they saw a twist of fate
The days to follow so somber
Gave everyone something to ponder

Your pain was too much to bear
Thinking life was so unfair
A loving soul crushed so young
The hearts of your family forever stung

A baby now without a father
Her life a story with only one author

Good Samaritan Twist of Fate

You all came in from the cold shivering
all dressed in red which is bewildering
you'd stay and hover
cause some clutter
but at least you all stopped quivering

Again found you at my kitchen sink
I thought perhaps you all wanted a drink
so I ran the tap water
not thinking it was slaughter
oh ladybugs the way you died just stinks!

Unions Cross

A twist of fate with slashing blade
In this my heart's deep gash...
Watching her from across the way
Making love, to another girl; passion
Then ripped these dreams apart
Their beauty as hers, melting amid
Scorching flames she cried I wept
While cold the blood, did turn red...
Marble marked but now its gone; tears
Wiped away this love; aside a flower bed.

Premium Member Morning Light

An angel through that black long eve He holds a trembling hand to grieve And in the moment make believe The rising sun will not deceive Doorways dim must stand and wait This tragic timely twist of fate

Corrupt My World

Your the girl thats deep in my heart 
Every moment of every second 
You corrupt my world 
Its just a cruel twist of fate i dont know
how to love u less 
And ur at war with ur deepist thoughts 
What if.... 
every step that we take could be our biggest
mistake 
where just drifting aimlessly apart 
i thought i was the one to mend your broken
heart

Fate

The long awaited time finally came
You had run out of people to wrongly blame
The vicious bile seeping across your tongue
No longer had power, no longer stung
Those who had been hurt by your heinous actions
Could continue living without hateful distractions
Because after all, when one lives a life of hate
Receiving comeuppance is a simple twist of fate

FIRE BURNING.
NIGHT TIME RAGING
NEIGHBORS CALLING
SIRENS SCREAMING

FIREFIGHTERS STRAINING
FIRE'S GAINING

NIGHT TO DAY 
BURN THEN FADE.
WATER SOAKED
BELONGINGS GONE
TWIST OF FATE.
WINDS OF CHANGE

NEIGHBORS SCARED
ALL LOSS IS FEARED
HOW WILL WE GET BACK
THERE FROM HERE
NEIGHBORS BLARED

LIFE'S NOT FAIR 
LIFE IS FEARED
HOW WILL WE GET BACK
THERE FROM HERE.

Premium Member Amorous Rush

From the first look you felt like fate, 
locked gaze a gateway to Heaven;
A wild adventure about to begin;

Laughter the invitation and we begin
to sing a forgotten song of fate; 
Your voice a song from Heaven;

Amorous rush can be a taste of Heaven
creating courage to let something begin; 
Love with a single glacé mirrors fate;

With a twist of fate Heaven can begin.

Crow’s Feet


What dark epaulette drapes
the scare crows shoulder?
Gazing bleakly upon
withered corn stalks
rustling in the wind’s
disdainful howl.

What mistaken duty
denies dismissal’s call
condemns the sullen sentry
to cower at death’s touch
mourning silenced wings

What twist of fate
draws him to the ground
in featherless
shivering
death?

Smoke To You All Smoke

It was a cruel twist of Fate open to harmony.
plagued by tears and knowledge of nothing
                                                                                     but shadows
      The blank wall reads a mad man, A shinning star sparks the fire, rage
burn, I'm coming
                               and as fair warning 
I put the fire out...

                                    Smoke
