“Better a tree for eagles
than a haunt for ravens.”
|
Eyes of the brightest blue,
A smile that could strike a wave
A laugh that could haunt your dreams,
And a smile like Summer rain
Tender and warm her arms may be,
With the strength to hold you tight
But even the strongest of people,
Need to be held at night

“Of fear and pain and haunting Death- do cometh now and seeks his rest. I play my part and sign my role= away to Death and his old tricks. And watch the hours slowly tick.”
|
"Waiting for that thing that never happens is exhausting."
|
If the past still haunts you , that means you have done something.
|
Brain work is so exhausting...no wonder few politicians use them.
|
Sometimes, the weight of exhaustion becomes the clarity we need to let go. When the signs grow too concerning, don't ignore them; it's okay to throw in the towel and find peace on the other side.

We're all haunted by the people we couldn't save

Love cradles Sorrow for a while, comforting it in its arms, stroking it like a pet to be controlled, adored and loved, until Love realises that Sorrow needs free range to express itself. Eventually like all wild things, Sorrow needs to be released, to be transformed into something higher and more hauntingly beautiful. (Leanne Lovejoy-Burton as LadyLabyrinth)

I have never witnessed a hearse pulling a U-Haul.
|
Like a welcome interlude, silence rescues me from the exhaustion of the constant demands of daily life. As a soothing massage to an aching body, she cradles me in your her and restores my body and soul.
|
A fake laughter all but haunts the mind of reality.
|
We regret, repent and remorse only when we have lost exhaustively.
|
Respect Kisi Kay chehray aur shakal ki nahi hoti balky character aur amaal ki Hoti hai aur agar character theek na ho to phir dunyavi Shan-o-shaukat aur protocol ka Kia faida??
|
The chauvinistic mind has Napoleonic roots,
where commitment to flawed ideals lacks endurance and truth. With ' Fake News ' and the ' Big Lie ' . . . reality is challenged once again from blind leadership and power.
|
The reign
in a chauvinist’s brain
falls mainly as mansplain.
("Apologies to España" by Michael R. Burch, Keywords/Tags: men, women, Spain, Spanish)
|
His weary vision’s so overwhelmed by iron bars,
his exhausted eyes see only blank Oblivion.
His world is not our world. It has no stars.
No light. Ten thousand bars. Nothing beyond.
('Der Panther' or 'The Panther' by Rainer Maria Rilke, loose translation by Michael R. Burch)

She smiled a thin-lipped smile
(What do men know of love?)
then rolled her eyes toward heaven
(Or that Chauvinist above?).
|
Officer Derek Chauvin shouldn't be on trial - the media should!
|
Poetry is a whisper of an embrace
caressing the heart and soul
with a gentle song which soothes
the melancholy that haunts
|
Rain has been falling around me for the past few weeks, leaving me with many rainy days that haunt me with their melancholy. I find comfort in the rain and enjoy writing poetry inspired by its liquid caress.
|
"Forget the past you say,
Leave it all behind you"
"To hell with that notion,
mistakes are our most inexhaustible
source of lessons to learn from,
besides that, why would all the countries
of the world record history if not to learn
from their past"
|
and on the 8th day God died of exhaustion
|
If economic loopholes were to be closed and the saboteurs haunted, Africans would be doing nothing other than castrating the governments and aborting the opposition
|
When we have reached ultimate exhaustion, of trying to gain control of the days of our lives, like running horses that cannot be constrained; only then can we come to realize, that God has always been there beside us, softly nudging, gently asking, My child, let me now take the reins.
|
"She gasped herself awake most mornings, exhausted from the flying."
|
I guess the most haunting and most pervasive question after horrible tragedies occur is why
|
Do not ruin another person life because yours got ruin,for it will only bring you shame and misery and will haunt you for life.
|
I hate memories because they are constant reminders that things were once real. You were once there. You had witnessed everything and you could've had the ability to alter the situation, if given any luck or power to undo things, to exit the other door, and to look back for safety measures.But we're mortals and we just got to live with all these haunting memories.
