Premium MemberYou were a labyrinth into which I ventured with desire

You were a labyrinth into which I ventured with desire,
the threads of your words weaving me tightly,
a mortal caught in an endless tragedy, a myth.
Each kiss was an elegy of falling stars,
each touch, a funeral song of the deep night.
You wore your sadness like a crown of shadows,
and I—your destined fool—bowed under its cursed brilliance.

Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
(Cream Rises To The Top)
Miracle Man
May 23, 2023

In life, no natural law or proclamation, ever decrees,
that a day started badly must continue that path.
Through our daily encounters we can still breeze,
if negative thoughts are interred in the aftermath.

Keeping pace with others only makes one mediocre,
and the success of the draw will be

Premium MemberShe Ventured Out Into the Stars

She ventured out into the stars
   Though a stranger to their realm
Bright lights flashing roundabout her
   Would perhaps they overwhelm

This sweet young maiden, fair but frail
   Who'd braved the nighttime skies
Who'd quit the Earth, for there she'd felt
   That all Hope for Life and Light had died

Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
Written: by Miracle Man

Many people will avow,
to being risk adverse.
In discussing this point,
they often become terse.

if we can’t stick our neck out,
without undue fear.
We’ll be like the tortoise,
and not get anywhere.

Sometimes a decision,
causes life to seem bleak.
But risk is always commensurate,
with the reward we seek.

Premium MemberWe Ventured Out


We could no longer in our four walls stay!

     We longed to see the sun and smell the breeze.

Seemed all around us Nature sang, "Come play!"
     
     We could no longer in our four walls stay!

We ventured out one sunny winter day,

Where I Ventured Was Censored

Path I Ventured Down Was Censored

Down certain path why would I have ventured,
To a certain place that they actually censored,
Bawdy was being;
Not worth seeing,
And I now do regret that it ever had occurred.

Ventured

I ran to the forest 
Fought with serpents
Returned a wolf
Gangs to packs,
To being an alpha
Bookworms and nerds
To being a geek 
G the great,
Passing like there's no stop
Like there's no stopping,
Working my magic 
like there's no ending,
The great work to the long walk 
Followed by shadows 
Guided by the light,

Silent be me
Simmy be my friend,
Little is

Nothing Ventured

Who were these men
who stood on deck,
and sailed the seven seas?
To hoist the sails,
and tell the tales
throughout the centuries.
Navigation by the stars
to islands then unknown,
like bitter root or passion fruit
the seeds of wisdom sown.
Adventure bound, they left home port
though some did not return.
They chased their dreams,
but met their fate
to sink or swim or burn...
When their

Never look through a window, never go through a door
If you are wary of what lies behind, you never will explore

If you make this decision, you may see things that you like
But there are maybe things that are not, this for you is your right

Many have looked through a window, and many have gone through

Where No Other Has Ventured... Heaven

We walked where no other had ventured
We walked into the corners Heaven
Where clouds fill your view
Healing everything, on 
The golden path
Leading to the golden gates
Glowing, shouting Hallelujah
Tall and grand
Joy filling the air
Filling your lungs with sweetness
Breathing deep satisfying breaths
Angels floating above
Your heads with halo's 
And wings of silk, soft, and gentle
The sun, glorious is in

Where No Other Has Ventured... Hell

We walked into the depths of Hell
We walked where no other had ventured
Where fire burns forevermore 
Destroying everything, but
The living, who are there
To be tormented forever
By the flames of sins they have committed
Reminding them every waking hour
Of the choices they made
The gates, dark and black
Wrought iron, reflecting the glow
Smoke filling the air
Filling your lungs making
Breathing
