Short Unrealized Poems

Just like Emma Peel
kicking really, really high
the young lads watching

Avengers seeking justice
perhaps fancy unrealized...

Room’s messy.
Mind’s disorganized.
Emotions contained.
Thoughts emanating.
Art visualized.
Potential inhibited.
Poetry written.
Dreams unrealized....

Every action resounds as an echo,
on its ripple you dance
to the music of life,
not composed by you.
The truth dissipates unrealized 
within obdurate ego.

Unrealized dreams

In line, patiently await

Anticipation!

Come, silent night, come,

Let me in your arms a harbor to find

To anchor my unrealized dreams and 

Leave my fears behind!

A Couplet
on
Taxing Unrealized Gains
By Miracle Man

Biden’s henchmen must think that we have no brains,
You must cash in your winnings to spend your gains.

Tongue danced behind lips; anticipation,
Love transformed in unbridled liberation.
Fire-born body heat of scalding passion,
Unrealized immense infatuation.
Naked whispers confess love; consummation,
Bound by virginity-claimed emancipation....

The weeping of my unrealized dreams I hear
 
Coming from the deep well, of unforgiving time

Asking me, their aspirations to betray no more

But give them a chance for a victory sublime!

HAPPINESS II

Happiness:
Unrealized dream of
Mortals 
That
Eludes the understanding
And 
Is only to be found
Within 
The walls of the 
Imagination
As  
A state of mind, 
Able to be felt,
Only, 
In the form of
POETRY!

crouching staring opposition glare
tears stream down
unrealized
i fear nothing but the rage within my bones 
looking at my hands full of blood 
the shackles 
prayers i shout in silence
Spanish and English
falling to my knees all i can do is pray
with my chin up
hands forward...

The cold cry 
Of a lost child
Seeking love
Found in his mother 
He whom is unable to translate
As an adult
Unrealized that he to must provide
For in her womb was not where he resided
Mistaken for the vagina in which he slid in and out of
Assuming it was the same
He felt entitled
Never giving his Love 
Remaining unclaimed...

Ticking clock, buzzing insects.
Gazed up, shuffled decks.
Swirl of emotions, someone in mind.
Unspoken words, actions in bind.
Unrealized truth, betrayed dreams.
Infinite loop, so it seem.
Sleepless nights, doubtful mornings.
Wandering around, helpless beginnings.
Restless mind, worn out body.
Leaving everything behind, start all over again....

My sight was blurred 
And there…..
    down the lane,
I waited for myself.

The night was heavy
  with unrealized enigma of chaos,
But the striking streaks of lights
  made me surprised.

The thunder struck
    advocating the impending dawn.
The day next….
	I descried
the reality fading to nullity!
 
And,
then the dusk met my distorted eyes!!...

as the old year fades away
unrealized hopes of yesterday
tissued dreams packed in a box
put on a shelf but not forgot

fresh perspective, fresh new year
a plan-o-gram to make it clear
erase the slate, start again
keeping all once held dear

resolutions not fulfilled
roll them over, a re-try
add some wishes I will keep
fantasy never in short supply...

I am words on paper, a melody on the air, 
A conscious thought with subconscious intent
I am father, son, brother, friend

I am a poet, singer, and seeker of truth; 
A man with questions, a soul with possibilities
A past without regret, and a future yet unrealized

I am a lover and a leader
A dreamer and a doer
I am me

So many years have past, were lost
I’ve since grown old and tired
The many dreams that I once had
No longer do inspire
The many nights, such lonely nights
Creep slowly past my eyes
To where instead, while I’m in bed
Seem to float upon my cries
They do in fact, make me react
To scream out for the sun
Where all dreams, become my schemes
Yet remain those all undone...

Ev’ry child born soon grows to taste the good and bad of life,

and whether fortune smiles on him or her – ev’ry child soon learns

that obligations likely follow. ‘Tis likely they will take a husband or a wife.

On offspring they oft times pin their dreams unrealized. The world still turns.

so this is where you are
and this is where we meet
somewhere between unsure and unknown
streets paved with unrealized dreams

did I hear you say that it's wrong
or was it something is not quite right
where could we have gone
but where we did that night

you stopped far short of love
the words never crossed your lips
your sun blocks out my moon
and hope is totally eclipsed...

Outer space
The imagination game of the 60’s.
Vast adventure, unknown discoveries,
Unblemished planets, unrealized potential

Rocketing, spiraling, swirling, 
Captivating, mystifying, overwhelming the imagination
Taking us to heights we dare to finally dream about,
Outer space

Rocket ship is stocked and ready to go
A five year plan, possibly never returning.
Who is with me?...

If I were a word, 
Then 'peent' it would be.
It's something unique,
Just exactly like me.
With mystery and flow,
Like a forest hid stream,
Like memories unrealized;
Some faraway dream.
Any sentence could fit me,
I'd make stories complete,
My meaning’d be endless,
My harmony sweet.
Yes, if I could pick one word,
That fits only me,
There's only just one word,
And 'peent' it would be....

As the New Year's sun majestically rises on the horizon of time

And the mountaintops of our resolutions wear their golden crown

Our unrealized dreams unfold their wings anew and take flight

Praying to reach realization's fields before the coming of sundown!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!
MAY YOU STAY HEALTHY AND MAY ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE!...

And so, thus lies intent ...
Gatekeeper of innumerable dreams,
And the sour fruit of all left unrealized.
Oh grand, the castles constructed in its name -
Forlorn and fallow, the kingdoms it has forsaken.
Madness and misery creep its shadows ...
All wonder and wisdom dance in its wake,
Yet, it is an apparition that waits, alone
An angel of breath and dynamism ...
Or a demon ... of latency....

Listen to poem:

Penumbric Fringe
David J Walker

The lateness of the hour
Measured in the meter of the 
News-mans message
	The Hour is Late 
	But not come
Cries the downtown crier 

The lateness of the hour
With unrealized power
	From the sun
But then
	They will be they
Won’t they
They are the one-word
Future

The lateness of the hour
Is   Time
	And time again
Repeated in 
Ambit chaos
Within the penumbric fringe...

Silhouette framed by the outstretched window
The calling of unbarred freedom
Bare feet pressed against the cooling sill

Heels lift at the beckoning breeze
Chin skyward at the hope filled reddening heavens

A mind lost
A soul stolen


Delusory confidence laced appealment to soar
Compelled by a
Momentary
Greater authority

Fingertips let go

The leap of manic faith
The fall to pieces unrealized forever...

as you lie in crescent light
love reflecting in her eyes
I am awake, another sleepless night
with abstract dreams unrealized

loves conviction, a contorted shape
hidden by a shadowed face
again my heart loses trust and faith
against condemned walls it scratches and scrapes

as distance grows between you and me
a faithful wound continues to bleed
the songs you write for her to read
is the straw that will set me free...
