Premium Member In the nights when sleep hides among shadows and broken dreams
In the nights when sleep hides among shadows and broken dreams, The night wind becomes a caress of cold stars on my skin, It penetrates deep into my lungs, like a crystal serpent of silence, And I wonder, with longing that sings silence in echoes of lost time, When was the last time I felt the thrill of undefined...

Premium Member Echoes of Your Broken Dreams
Echoes, reminiscing within my tortured soul Reverberating deep within me, achieving their goals All my life’s emotions I have ever known scattered My life long dreams now shattered Broken by the echoes The echoes of your broken dreams Your broken dreams Broken dreams The depth of your pain in my heart retained, retained Your broken dreams Broken dreams I should have known...

Premium Member The Landscape of Broken Dreams
Across the landscape of broken dreams There is a lack of a vision it seems. In the journey of suffering and of faith The rewards of joy are a long wait. The prayers are fervent and sustained The answers are not, only silence remains. To continue on could be such a waste Because there is no comfort in this state. Yet...

What revelation! I saw the light, A simple plan, my future bright. I put my hopes and dreams in action, Solely for my own satisfaction. A perfect plan with one thing lacking, Needing father's financial backing. But when I plead to fund my way, "Son, not today," was all he'd say Each day I'd rise and ask him why, He only gave the same...

Premium Member Fixing the Broken
A broken thought holds meaning Even though its not completed A broken dream shines, envisaging Even though its not really alive A broken smile brings a sweetness Even though its not always smiling A broken tear falls from the soul Even though its not filled with hope A broken heart shares a silent light, Even though it isn’t softly glowing… Like candlelight, with assurance, knowing That...

Following a road built on broken dreams Nothing is as easy as it seems Through out life comes the rain only thing is how you hide the pain There will be times of trail When you can loose your smile To just keep on going is for the best This is the test Strength is built on broken dreams Harder...

Broken Dreams
Broken Dreams Tonight I´m happy and sorrowful I refuse to cry over lost friends I´m drunk as well. It feels good to up the anchor of sobriety let alcohol give wind to my sails. A clipper buying tea in China not useless plastic toys. Sleek, the line and the women admired me. Let the clipper sail. I don´t care; I shall stay and make love...

There is a simple fact very few of you see I’m as alive as alive can be. I start at the mountains and I end at the sea, Life is abundant inside of me. MY life begins by the melting of snow and ice. My rapids are guilty of taking life. This saddens me deeply and it hurts my soul, Murder wasn’t...

Premium Member Prodigal Moon
Alabaster moon prodigal with pearlescent promises, extravagant assurances, pretends to symbolize jazzy moon-in-June romance for young lovers. Gibbous guitarist plucks out honeyed heart-string progressions; passion-fueling improvisations entwine as two hearts syncopate to soul-stirring rhythms. Feeling the beat, tapping those feet jitterbugging hips sway in sync towards the dark side of the moon. Gyrating in a sensual frenzy of broken dreams, exhausted bodies execute a heart-break dance of missteps. One last mournful note and the...

Broken Dreams
" A broken hand is fixed wid bandages... A broken heart is fixed wid someones love... But what about a broken dream.. What can that be fixed with... Can it be fixed wid money... Or can it be fixed it a degree... Or could education fix it... The dreams in the eyes of the parents... When sending us to school... The hopes in their...

Premium Member morning has broken
morning has broken broken dreams in the cold light of day ________________________________________________________ POET'S NOTES With her monoku, Marlene 'Mountain' Morelock Wills (1939–2018), challenged the idea that haiku must consist of two juxtaposed images. I explore parallelism as a possible poetic device in this monoku, as well as a form of internal rhyme. Besides...
