Now I’m noticed, but not for that reason,
laughter amidst crowds that I don’t rise in,
leers that promote their faces,
alters when they had notice,
that it should be me in utter laughter,
they joined me laughing, floored, feigned disaster.
It's an endless journey to find love and its meaning…
A promised destination that may never come true.
I thought my direction was on the right path,
until my direction brought me to you.
The distance between your heart and where I'm standing, is the same distance from here to the moon.
And, that promise I made I have just broken,
and love and its meaning are broken, too.
When I think of love, it makes me wonder
why I ever tried so hard
to reach the distance from where I'm standing
to somewhere in your heart.
Yes, I've forgotten the meaning of love,
and the moon is still so far away.
But, if every journey begins with a footstep,
then I'll reach the moon someday.
It's an endless journey to find love and its meaning…
If I tell you what you want to hear
Will you actually listen
Or silently cajole yourself
That you have converted another.
If I tell you things you do not want to hear
Will you dismiss them
Without giving them any thought
Deny them the possibility of truth
If I listen to what you tell me
And question the efficacy of its truth
Will you dismiss me as a fool
Or engage me in lively debate
Or have your values calcified
Been stilled by an arctic wind
Blowing cold across a frozen face
Unable to smile at its own contempt
I like nature;
it is calm.
It has its truth
that I want.
The truth I search for in every soul,
not the masks I get to see
but the hidden faces I want to know.
I once had a mask.
It feeds you lies to keep it alive.
But being alive doesn’t matter
if it hunts you down
and burns your soul on the inside.
Because you think the outside
wears a disguise,
but with the clock ticking
it shows your cries —
shows the world how helpless you are,
and then the mask doesn’t help you at all.
So be like nature,
be its calm.
Grow yourself how you want.
Find the people who love the truth
and show you, with every heartbeat,
their love for you.
You’re asleep next to me right now
Drunk after only 4 tallboys
While a 6 pack and 2 tallboys has me Barely buzzed.
I don’t know if you remember,
But I tucked you in
Put on some cartoons
And caressed you
Until you
Fell asleep.
You’re snoring
But every time
Your breathing lulls
I pull you close
Until
The snoring starts
Again.
Some may find it annoying,
But I know
It just means
You’re ok with me.
want write poems that not
bout politics life's weighty
absurdities death's grip all
simple poems contentment
son's enthusiasm energy
wife's cooking heroic endurance
kitten's bouncing curiosity
old cat's slowing solitude
dog praying hard reform
colors fall newness spring
mowing leaves grass gazing
on in forest looking beyond
tree tops lake mirage day

treading softly near edge
old habit making safe path

Of all the things the world can give,
The hopes for which a heart can live,
The vast horizon, grand and wide,
Just one small thought cannot subside.
The noise of life is just a haze,
A passing blur of ordinary days.
For in this whole, wide, sweeping view,
A heart is set on just one thing, just you.
And if the future had a name,
It'd be the very same.
The world can turn, and time can burn,
But still, this simple lesson learned:
One doesn't want everything, just one small part,
All that's wanted is him, and all that fills your heart.

my teeth are tinglin'

I rise with sun,with hope to try
I think and set,whom would be I !
I swim in sky ,all-day I breathe
I glide with birds,and songs I sing.
I laugh with sun,and talk to stars
I feel the heat,and catch the light
I play with rain,rainbow I touch
I fetch the clouds from hills & peaks.
And when I see, twilight with me
I smile and lick the orange flakes
Skyscapes I hug, farewell I bid
Then set wth Sun,and fall on land
I lay on land,I see the stars
Celestial glow and wet eyes
I miss the clouds,in sky they blow
I love the day,when I'll rise!!
The future isnt as dark as it seems
Lost in the present
kuz we still holdin on to the past's fckd up presents!
every scar wrapped tight w a bow
triple knotted with a thousand layers
keepin safe every tragic memory we know
tired from the circles we stay runnin
moving so fast but feelin like super slow-mo
been way past the time to go
years fly by n still got nothin to show
with the heaviest baggage we've ever known in tow
Pains in our legs from tryna grow
Starting to feel like this just how sht supposed to go
Do you want me?
I don’t think so. You don’t love me. Never. Hmm
Hmm. Why? You were just showing yourself to me
Hmm. But why? Hmm. You killed my life. Trampled
Hmm. You destroyed my sensitive lover's heart.
Hmm. Why? Hmm. Why? My heart is bleeding. Red pain
Can you see the window? Red heart is crying. Painting. Red
Hmm. I need you. Just your meaning. The love. Where lost
Hmm. I can’t live our life. Destroyed desire. Death my kind
Do you want me? Hmm. No. Hmm. Never love. Hmm. You
Waiting. Hmm. Red roses. Hmm. Floating rose leaves
The last petal is yours
I will never forget you
Loved you,
Demon Vilmos
do you want a dog hair coat
will six pounds a day be enough?
my giant dog sheds so much
you can come to my house and vaccuum
and collect enough to make yourself wall-to-wall carpet
a couch throw, a coat, and a sweater
what's not to love!
I'm fun and I'm quirky
unusually charming
I like to be happy
and it doesn't take much
a kind word a warm smile
from a guy who's got love in his heart
If you ever want to know if you’re blessed with love in your life…
you don’t have to guess…
just take a moment and complete this simple little test:
When you joy in you life…
or if it is sorrow you should find…
who do you want to share it with?
who are the first people who come to mind?
