Sure Poems

I sure so like to cry

i taste my tears 
i shake my head 
scream and shout 
someone please shut the noise out.
YEAH! that's how i feel
but not for your eyes 
it's some kind of vulnerability
that I don't even like
I kick and wrap my arms around me all so tight
sometimes I need to feel
but not for your eyes

Premium MemberNot so sure about the combo

I'm caramel, gooey and sometimes saucy.
Sweet but sometimes salty.
Everybody knows it ~ not sure if you do

I'm still figuring out what you are
because once I've seen your prickly side
I keep picturing you as jalapeno

To be quite honest ~ I can't help but think
we might not be the ideal combination

The Lord God has profound truths
things secret to His majesty divine
for the Lord knows all things
in His eternal place, the living vine

This God has all divine authority
in heaven above and earth below
He is the one true ruler and King
all must bow before His throne, you know

To His own elect and saved people
He has revealed the

Ill-logical..? Philosophy.' Devious topoggraphy..Asset flow
Incorperated to bringl a stagnant; septic situation.' In the

Premium MemberSure Shot


My voice protects human potential,
I won’t walk down your road to failure;
These words aren’t labeled confidential,
they are perfume on me clean and pure.

Walk away if you think I’ll downgrade,
I am not some low model robot;
Not gonna take the straw bed you made,
I won’t suffer your distressing cot.

My voice protects human potential,
I won’t walk down your

Premium MemberSure Sign of Spring

     Neither tulip nor daffodil
       not bluebells on my windowsill

    Not the longer days
      nor the sun’s warm rays

    Neither puddles to splash in
      nor love's urgent passion

Make Sure You Love You

In the mirror's gaze, a reflection stares
A soul so worthy, yet often unaware
Of the love that's needed, the care that's true
The acceptance that starts with "I love you"

Embrace your flaws, your quirks, your grace
Your strengths and weaknesses, your every trace
Love the lines that tell your story so far
Love the heart that beats, the soul that

Heaven I'm Sure To Go

Heaven is a place for me and I am sure to go
There's so much for my eyes to see
The streets of solid gold
The angels singing songs of praise
Angels crying, the world's in pain
I have a voice, my arms are raised
Jesus please bless us all again

Nobody Can Be Too Sure

Hold on to hope, fate is unkind...
nobody can be too sure about
anything, not even tomorrow;
we live and die for a cause,
to keep that ideal alive in the joyful heart
we despair and cry until tears flow,
has anyone asked, " What's our purpose,
what makes life simple, not wild? "

If we can't answer this simple question
we haven't dreamed,

Premium Membernot sure why we are friends

She talks nonstop about herself
All of our conversations are one-sided
If I try to speak, she has to go

When she has a problem she needs my empathy and sympathy
When I have a problem, she one-ups it; has had ten worse problems
I am not sure why we are friends
Or if we are

Not Sure I Like It

Snow fall and Santa
those long winter nights
a season for merry
cold winds they do bite.

I'm not sure I like it
no matter the year
seems the older I get
the lesser the cheer.

No sugar plums dancing
around in my head
the countdown to Christmas
12 days I do dread.

So bring on the sunshine
and a warm summer breeze
for I'm really more merry
at seventy

Make sure it was not in vain

Pain
Tears
Hope
And desperation

An emotional piece of rag
That's what I've become

Tears splash down on my books
I smear my neatly written 
physics notes

Down on my table
I put my head slowly

I hear those little voices
"You can do better" they say
"But how do I get 
myself out of this mess?" I ask

The voices don't answer back

Screaming inside
I let out a

For Sure

seek him every dawn and dusk
seek him every day and night
when the sky is gold
when his miracles unfold
see him in your daily view
and for sure he will see you
be it in a temple or mosque
or in a church-whatever you ask
don’t worry if you can’t visit these
he is right in your heart indeed
in every thought, word,

Premium MemberI am Sure it Wll Be Fine

it is a strange house, I had been warned.
I smiled at my fiancé’s hesitation.
I am sure it will be fine, I assured him.
We arrived an hour after dusk.

We had travelled through lots of snowy woods.
They seemed beautiful the first hour or two.
I was not bored with them, but I was ready to get out.
In the
