Premium Member Coward Am I
Unlike most
I have been over there
Where life is nothing
Mummy and daddy blown in the air

Where little ones starve
Where big ones kill
Proclaiming is all Gods will
I with my pen, how do I sit still?

Ants in the rubble
Of tyrants bombs
Or maybe just poverty
From political aplomb

Abu was a...

The Coward Man Is
Isn't it funny, the coward man is...
Calls himself the apex predator...
Yet scared as a puppy he'll wizz...
Without his hand held terminator...

We fight bulls and cry glory...
While we blind and maim...
To ensure our victory...
By crippling till lame...

Big cats and bears...
Detoothed and declawed...
For he who dares...
To pit...

Coward
Im burid, paralyzed, with only fear and hurt by my side. An ocean of black and darkness , an ocean of nothing.  I have no comfort, no release.  Will it always be this way? A ray of light shunes through the darkness, I...

Coward Chaos
Tears are screaming..
Soul is bleeding..
Life is shredding..
Body is falling..
As this dark is yelling at me..
As this wind is roaring in my ears..
As this sky is wavering on my head..
As this sand is intruding my feet..
As clouds are crying..
As wounds are shedding blood..
As scars are weeping..
As...

The Coward
Music on. Time to spare.
Lovely drive. Day so fair.
White beast, seething in my mirror.
Angry travels, encroaches road furher.
As a bee travels. As the vine grows.
Travel logistics, doubt he even knows.
As I signal. As I slow to turn,
street serpent, almost eats ship's stern.
Me, placid face. You,...

Coward
People want to commit suicide,
people choose to die over livin life.
Why has it come to be this way?
Why has this life become so meaningless,
that we just want to throw it away?
We become selfish and think our life is so bad,
dont think of others who's lives...

Cowards die many times before their deaths…
Julius Caesar, Act II, Scene 2 ~William Shakespeare

spouse 
a souse 
classic grouse 
a big girl's blouse

portent ominous 
assertions blasphemous   
obscure and anonymous 

his skulking is nefarious 
utterances acrimonious
and implicature often dubious 

uxorious but still pusillanimous

You Are Being Such a Coward
You asked to love you like never before
And I did; I gave you my whole heart, what more?
But you are still staggering, what for?
You've two hearts now, so why are you still torn?

I like your excuses, but not this lie
That you aren't getting enough
Haven't I...

Guilt Is a Foolish Coward
Wipe that stupid grin off your face,
Grime soaks in your bubbly cheeks
You soak everything in like a filthy sponge – 
I would divorce this feeling of guilt
It stinks like manure on the ground…
The stench is too overwhelming
Don’t let me be ensnared by guilt
Be prepare to...

Coward
Make your decision,
and make one damn fast
the clocks ticking,
running out of battery
and I want you in the past-
if this is all make believe
if it's an assumed oval
take my frail,
succumbed heart,
again,
again
and stab me some more
you can,
you always do
then you run,
stand up
and walk away
but this time
I'm not...

I Am a Coward
I am a Coward

They all came with a promise of smile and laughter..,
But soon all were gone, and I was left in the pool of tears..!!
Now I again was left alone..
With no friend I can call dear..!!

The lessons my life taught seems so harsh..
The dreams...

If Only I Had the Courage
If only I had the courage…

Constantia Clinic, 16 December,
A day forever to be remembered.
You last day on this earth,
It was only twenty months and a bit since your day of birth.
Now today six months later I am staring at the ceiling,
Seeking a way out, as...
