Pain

Breathing isn't easy
Blanket of tranquility
chest burns with unease....
For those few moments of pain
Silence grants perspective...once
Form: Tanka


Unease

Often we feel
Things are unglued--
Nothing is real,
And it all seems so strange.

Faces conceal
Moods misconstrued;
Voices reveal
What our words cannot change.

We'Ve All Done It

I may just be panicking, but
I've a horrible fear in my gut
that sense of unease
I've forgotten my keys
just after the door had slammed shut

Made To Herass

She’s a ***** tease
Disrupting peace 
Saw her jiggle and wiggle 
Feel unease and the bone tickle 
She has the right butt
To bust a nut
Such an ass 
Was made to slap and harass

Bravo Muskan

For the dress culture
they forget true humankind,
World is in unease 

Barking thug can’t kill
fundamental inner voice,
Let’s fly flag of peace

The Writer In Me, Wants You To Know

8/3/2021

I write to spread more than unease. 

As people gather and read that I am unpleased. 

With this world that stutters when they hear my condition. 

I am now free, though not in remission.

Premium Member Inflections Are Key

Some things as spoken can hurt or appease The wording is crucial but inflections are key Saying something innocent Can be seen as villainous If the manner spoken causes a certain unease

Mind Games

Trapped in a space
Of unease 
Surrounded by isolation 
You cannot leave
It follows you 
It is you
The demons you create
The thoughts you debate
There is no escape
When the world you live in
Is the world you make

Premium Member An Insomniac

I am she who craves sweet sleep.
Then comes a sickening creep
who stalks me all through the night.
Into my mind he does seep.
Great unease I cannot fight.
Eyes closed, at blackness I stare.
Stealing my dreams, he's still there.

Premium Member Unease Over What Is Happening

Seemingly

Imagination

Creates stories

Over and under 

A story appearing..

Evidence of something

New creeps in..

These are seeds of a

Perennial search for

Completion.. unease

Over what seems

Happening...

Premium Member Silent night

Wake’s retreat brings calm,
Silence cloaks the once-roaring,
Unease whispers near.

Nightfall descends, hushed,
Absence of life’s symphony,
Uneasy shadows.

Atmosphere withdraws,
Silence shatters tranquility,
Unease lingers, still.

Premium Member Flee from Him

    Dissonance in me awakens
       Feelings faint and badly shaken

    by hearts - come clean - that are now achin'
       no thanks to my prevarications …

Secrets

Guilt knaws at my stomach,
And worries my heart.
It wraps around my throat
And squeezes harshly,
Stealing the breath 
Right from my lungs.
Unease settles somewhere
Deep in my core,
An aching fear of secrets 
that may not make it
to the grave.

Acrostic Word

Grey-robed ladies materialise at castles
Hideous red-eyed entities hover in woods
On horseback, headless riders gallop past
Silently, spectres watch and cause unease 
Throwing objects at exorcists, spirits laugh

Longing

So this is what it feels like to be loved—
to love someone truly.
I long for thee.

Filled with quiet ecstasy,
I wonder what the days ahead hold for us…

I miss thy scent—
that quiet fragrance
that belongs only to thee.

Premium Member Nightfall

Nightfall
Wears a deep face
In this dark place
Where no one calls


Restless
The cold wind blows
An icy flow
As unease shows
Darkness


Trying
Dust of day slips
In the dark grip
In a dull trip
Dying

Unease

Woken up uncombed
Felt a bit unclean
A shirt a bit unbuttoned
Looked a little green

Wanted to unwind
To feel a bit unchained
Ever want to have a night
Of being entertained?

Sensed I was unmasked
A shaking of the knees
Does this not describe for you
The feeling of unease?

The Corner

Lurking
In the shadow
Of the corner
Of the room
In the dim
In the gloom
Lurking

Waiting
In the shadow
Of the corner
Of the room
In the dim
In the gloom
Waiting

Watching
In the shadow
Of the corner
Of the room
In the dim
In the gloom
Watching

Me.

Premium Member Dream Fragment

Dawn comes to light
The world with sight
In colours bright


I rise from sleep
That feels so deep
As new sense peeps


Drowsy eyes see
The face of me
As unease flees


"Joy in full swing
Now ever brings
The touch of spring..."

Premium Member Puzzle Pieces

Puzzle pieces here,
Assorted bits;
A grander sphere
To fashion fit.


So much to squeeze,
An awkward lot;
Watch that odd breeze
As unease dots.


Can troubles fit
Such curious waste?
Watch bland odd wit
Arouse strange haste.

Unease

Bare in your sheets 
The power shifts 
Like god and Mary 
Replace your lips 
With cruel fantasies 
I don’t care to admit 
What they mean

This painful unease 
Burns right through the skin 
Of my knees 
When you begin 
To want what you see 
To share your sin 
So proudly with me
