Slides Poems - Poems about Slides

A tear slides down my skin, cold as silence, soft as a whisper, And when it reaches my lips, it curls at the edges, a silent irony of sadness, Was it pain or relief, suffering or peace, a paradox flowing from my eyes, Wearing a mask that even I cannot decipher, an enigmatic story in disguise, The world sees...

Somewhere in the pretty petty imaginary illusion of delusion There lies a truth an edifice of search between obtuse confusion Windows like brick walls and concrete blocks birthing the light Nails to be nailed screws to be screwed with monumental sight A life a building fortress sand castle beach hut nutter’s dream Maybe a prison with towers barbed wire fences...

Living life as a Christian as apose to my last, From my first prayer that blessed ,a seed was planted For an opening so vast. I had no idea just of what was to coincide ,but being Changed from the inside out ,white knuckle roller coaster ride. Being attacked by the enemy not knowing what's...
