Wide Poems

with arms wide open

imagine
if I was harmless
from the hurt
that lives
deep down
but shallow 
in my stomach
that is to big
for my bones to carry

imagine if I was
littler
than the girl
who told me that
she would rather die
than live in my arms
once more

mysterious I am
with my black cloak
leaving my
home
that I long
to be free from
but not redeeming 
enough
to pick up my stuff and leave
to

Eyes Wide Shut

As our gang's led,
We'll stand on the ledge for the show.

We'll bang our heads, 
And then over the edge we'll go.

Cuz they fed us meds, 
And old scraps they dropped below.

There we bled undead, 
With no other place to go!

Tossed on the Wide Seas

“Life is like a ship tossed on the high sea 
To journey amidst sunshine and wild waves.” - By author.

Wide Oceans

The sun matches how I feel about your energy
you're so bright when you walk into a room 
your so warm when you pull me into hugs 
When I go to the beach I think of you 
the water smells like you 
the sand holds on to me like your kisses do 
I'm so lucky that

With Eyes Wide Open

(Please Note: this poem is generalised and not about at any particular   individual)

It is so interesting how differently humans perceive each other
Our perceptions are often at complete opposite ends
I see someone to avoid and stay well away from
You see a potential friend 

You see a good, kind and caring person
I see a performance

Wide Open Skies

(Entered for Contest: Memories Lost Within A Frozen Mist. Sponsor: Sara Jama.
Deadline 8th April 2025)


Do you remember, those wide open skies?
when we were younger, with wide open eyes
the world was our view, from the Empire State
or walking that walk, on the Golden Gate
days when tomorrows, were never ending
long before sorrow, had started trending
maybe I will

A good day to contemplate Australia wide' they shall celebrate

Wide Zhyloy

Our land is rich with naughty and talents rare,
My fate lingers in verses steeped in despair.
Think of Zhyloy* when one mentions Aibek's name,
And think of Aibek when Zhyloy earns acclaim!

At times we are a desert, at times a deep sea,
At times we're heavy, at times light and free.
I am boundless, vast as Zhylyoi's embrace,
For we

Autumns descend like birds of fire, with wings spread wide

Autumns descend like birds of fire, with wings spread wide,
covering the earth with a carpet of leaves burning in the colors of sunset,
each rustle an echo of lost childhood, a cry of time,
where the soul seeks shelter among the shadows stretching lazily.
On the paths of time, autumns walk with the steps of a lost soldier,
bumping

The Wide Devastation

Long after the lively spring came quite early...
every narrow hill's path laid in solemn tranquility,
faint footprints on solid ground under black booths
smeared with stains by damaged, leaking roofs.

It took longer to reach the hilltop being forced to halt
before a fallen tree toppled down by the hurricane Milton:
can Nature be as violent as man's mad temperament?

Wide Awake

"Does he love me?
No, for he never told me so.
It was all in my mind,
Neglecting the signs,
As if I'm blind.
I'm accepting it now,
'Cause if his love was true,
Doubt won’t linger, but it grew.
If he truly cared, he would have shown,
And now, I would not be alone.
It's been so long, yet I am still dreaming.
