I know shtts been rough
but we got this Babe
I can tell you got doubts
But you're still ALL I crave
Strung out & tired
Both way past insane
We know what we gotta do
N still haven't changed
Both got some genius level brains
Knowing together that we can create
some unfathomable, magical
-cloud 9 type-a cascade
Kinda seeming like we
both still afraid
to drop our guards 100% down
and let our souls pervade
Intertwined so deeply
like we were meant to obtain
Been way past delayed
Stuck in an entirely unnecessary
Overstayed masquerade
But
We both know
...We got this babe
Please don't take offense when we don't pay you any mind
Not all the time are we expecting to be wined and dined
Yes we are aware that we look good and very proud of ourselves
We don't always need attention and compliments from someone else
You say to us "ladies first" but it seems to be the new pick up line
It's either that, an angel fell from heaven or wanting to know our sign
How do you know we're not a woman scorned from past pain
Maybe we're not sure you're a dead beat looking for material gain
Most of the time you're not looking for any serious commitments
A one night stand is the reason you're requesting our seven digits
We know these things about you and refused to be played a fool
Yes we vary in size and shapes but it doesn't make us useless tools
Don't get me wrong we could all use a gentleman or a Mr. Right
But, Dear Men, you're not always a necessity to our lives
Although I felt alone, like a shooting star,
My light always showed from very far.
He is the Earth's stillest bodies of water,
So clear, so calm, he will never falter.
He beautifully reflects my streak of light,
He sees how I can be so warm and bright.
I see him for all of what he is truly:
A serene lake so deep, cool, and lovely.
I am the fire matching his passion,
He is the ocean mirroring my compassion.
He and I, although often physically apart,
Our souls inherently know every psychic art.
Although I felt all alone, faraway, for so long,
I suddenly descended to where I belong,
Like a falling star, he made a wish upon me,
I emerged anew, from his own sea of lonely
After we met, the tables suddenly turned.
I finally have what I've always yearned.
After that Full Moon Scorpio in May,
When I cried 'cause of a certain day.
Now, right after the Full Moon Taurus night,
We grew closer, heard each other's plight.
I stand on balcony where we always smoke,
I look at the moon, remembering every joke.
I smile, with a tender love, solemnly wishing
That someday we will share everything.
I love how much you are the same as me,
I love how you set me free from old misery.
Every time you go home, I never sadly worry,
'Cause I know you and I are a true love story.
I look at that train station beneath the moon,
And I know I'll always see you again soon.
I need a good wife,
Who's ready to be my spouse.
I'll give you my life,
And you will reign in my house.
Take me as in-law,
Parents who raised a beauty.
I come with no flaw—
Her care will be my duty.
Whether tall or short,
I care not, so long there's love.
Care her strong forte,
Her true self clear, not in glove.
Time in endless dash,
So age pleads on my behalf.
Let your true love splash
Into my heart, make me laugh.
The valley opens
Through fields of green
A poetic verse flutters free
As Autumn leaves
In pastel hues
Reach the ground
In a colorful muse
I lie beside a field of dream
And sketch a poem
Of all I've seen
Of youth and dreams
And love redeemed
Through clouds of white
I twine the light
A moment in time
A greatful sigh
For you my friend
I live this life
For now alone
Just you and I
I'll hold you baby, hold you tight
I'll hold you in my arms all night
You're safe with me, don't be afraid
My arms are strong, for you they're made
Let go of all anxiety
Release it all, give it to me
And should that howling wind blow near
I'll hold you baby, don't you fear
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- love from one's essence
base of all relationships
most of all ~ marriage -
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If I explained you my life choices
You would not understand
I do
I will not try to explain
I followed my heart
What was true to my soul.
Until Another Sky
We talked of stars and silly dreams,
of ghosts and ships from outer space.
Your laugh lit up the midnight beams,
I loved the wonder on your face.
We chased the storms and danced in rain,
shared secrets only we could know.
Your hand in mine eased every pain,
together love just seemed to grow.
You showed me peace in quiet nights,
we found our souls in simple prayer.
We traced the moon with soft delights,
and felt Gods grace was everywhere.
Now looking back I grin with glee,
at spoons we bent with energy,
at trees we swore felt misery,
those wild talks still tickle me.
I miss our hours sweet and true,
the way we fit just me and you.
We had to part our paths diverged,
but joy stays bright our love emerged.
Thank you for every blessed day,
for lessons wrapped in warm embrace.
My heart is full come what may,
Im grateful for your shining grace.
In some new life another time,
Ill find you there beneath the sky.
Youll smile and say youre right on time,
and moonlight pulls us you and I.

A mix of a mothers love and fathers's fight
Her sense of humor brought the light
In my complicated dark world of e
She OD me with her love and tells me to shut my mouth
Am i not high enough?
Naive maybe because she's young
Only 17 when she fell in love
With I who never believed in such
Tinkerbell, i called her that
She played fool all her life
But i swear tinker was smart
With a touch of finesse she stole my heart
But commitment isn't where i shine
Broken in my feelings i let her ride
She said goodbye
Unique in her own ways
We connected just in 3 days
Couldn't belive my eyes when i set them on her first
Her sweet voice and the chubby cheeks were the quench to my love thirst
Unexpectedly she left me dry
She also said i was high enough she said goodbye
Sad how love dies
Deep in my feelings even drugs cant pull me
High enough
A Man and His Word
It's very true, I said it of course,
and I suffer a hint of remorse,
as now, without question,
I have indigestion.
Why did I say, "I could eat a horse"?
Riddle
Who lives in water, not in air,
and never worries about his hair,
yet is not seen in calm repose,
and will not ever sleep or doze -
because, and while it is not fair,
he can't close his eyes, only stare?
Let's give a rousing shout
for our little friend, the trout!
Here's to Frogs and Fish
I like to give a shout,
for the frog, the toad, the trout,
who, whenever one comes by,
rids the world of another fly.
Hell is now totally empty,
Since Satan relocated to your heart;
His angels in you are plenty —
Our once-blossoming love they've torn apart.
His voice in you speaks violence,
Courting hatred and spite instead of love;
Abhorrent of our quietness,
So peace and happiness it strives to shove.
My presence now stinks like the trash,
Your words burn fierce like tongues forged in hell fire,
They scorch with vigour in a flash,
While you pile up your venoms, never tire.
Satan crawls like a snake in you,
He controls your temper and stains your tongue;
though you're blind to what I go through,
Still, I will love you till breath leaves my lungs.
"The pen must go where the pen wants to go." By Poet
Who is the poet?
They are dreamers about words and life,
making both come to life for their readers.
A true poet's quill,
writes from their loving and creative heart.
Did you know, August 18,
Is National "Bad" Poetry Day?
One day of the year all writers,
have a chance to make a change with their words.
Can we remember a rhyme is to rhyme?
not kind of or sort of rhyme.
A Limerick is five lines of funny,
not sad or depressing words.
Many have told me,
less words can be more meaningful.
I am stopping here,
and having a fun day writing away with my quill.
What is the ultimate goal,
To be happy or healthy
Sexy, powerful or wealthy?
What about something beyond
Conception or expression,
Something beyond
What you can have
Or ever, even hold?
We all know what the ultimate goal is
Because it is our true nature.
And yet obliviously we stumble on
Forward ever forward
Into an ever progressing
Idealized progressive future
That bears no resemblance
To our true nature.
What is our true nature?
The something
That is a nothing,
Ineffable and yet known
Inescapably
Within our bones,
Within all our bones.
A something that is a nothing, that is us.
