Upper Side Poems | Examples


Sin

You desire to be my master
Wanting me to be your slave
Well you can take theses chains from around my neck
I will no longer play that game

You see I'm not the same man I was
No, not the man that I used to be
I now realize who holds the lock
Better yet
I know who has the key

Satan holds the lock
Jesus is the key
Satan wants to keep me chained in sin
While Jesus wants to set me free

When I am free I shall be free indeed
Standing on the upper side of defeat
All that junk in life that kept me bound
Will not have a thing on me

So you can have someone else call you master
This Christian will not be your slave
The chains came off at the foot of the Cross
Along with the guilt, the shame, and the blame

Sky's Love To Ocean

longest and deepest
                                      symbolize to be broadest 
                                         sky's love to ocean
 
                                         as they are lovers
                                 embrace each other's blue hue
                                         unison of hearts

                                     one smiles upper side
                                    other replies reflection 
                                         up to end level

Inner Agitation

I sat beside you on a couch
In canted ground-
I sat on its lower side-
On purpose-
Waiting for you to roll over me-
But you were hanging tight on the upper side,
And that pushed me to look up in the sky
And wish the earth was vertical-

Another Scary Story

You make your move
Up the stairs
a cool breeze
Makes you flare

You shiver
like a duck on a river

You stay still
Stoned for death
White as a ghost
Fleet like a pest

You race
Like a cow flowing on the upper side of space

You make your move
Down the stairs
A cool breeze
Leaves the air
