Heart starting a love beet
The heart starting a love beat By Reggie As I think of you, my mind begins to unbind, and my nerves start to level and calm. As you come to grasp my heart, and as soon as I feel your touch, The beats begin to play a loving tune as we head toward the room, to be alone.I am able to...

Fish always decay, starting from the head
We are weary of words, endlessly taken and tossed, Singing day and night without ever being lost. Like the clear moon in the sky, one thing clear: “Fish always decay, starting from the head.” A person who reaches their goal walks with purpose, Thinks carefully before taking their course. A child’s education and upbringing, Is formed first and foremost in the family...

The Journey of Love, Starting With Me
I learned to love myself, alone, In quiet nights, in whispered tones. Before I searched for love outside, I healed the wounds I couldn't hide. I felt the sting of words once spoken, A heart once whole now torn and broken. But in that pain, I found my way, A stronger soul, a brighter day. For love is not just sweet and kind, It’s...

Glimpse of tears, dewlike, crystals Painting moments in gossamer webs, Defeated dreams and lingering prayers, In voices of gentlest grace, Stirring souls with sensitive prose, Poetry in stolen sighs, Stories so alive, faithful and bright, Birthed in halos like milky pearls, Moonbeams and stars, Grieved by the hearts who sing, In soft winds, Remembering the tones Breathed beyond the azure sea, Where yesterday believes Yes, the heart still...

I'm Starting to Forget
I'm Starting to forget you I wish I wasn't. When is your birthday? What are your fears? I can't really believe It's been so many years. What color is your hair? Is it curly like mine? What clothes did you wear? Whats your Favorite Time? Were you excited to see us? Were we always have burdens? Did your bedroom have windows? What color curtains? Were you happy to see...

Premium Member Starting with an expression and letting it run - chasing daylight
We are losing daylight Carry on, carry on I've not yet chosen Whether darkness Lightens my load Conversations Float on air Perhaps me to me There is no right Nor wrong When you expertly debate I'm on both sides To defend and condemn Myself In this situation Of loss of daylight There's an urgency That means I'm stranded I need to choose the spot Where I'll stop Perhaps it's...

Another Chance To Dance
I have seen that house a hundred times, The one upon which the old vine climbs. So poignant and so melancholy, That place had once been the omphali. Now it was abandoned, dark, and drear And seeing it made me shed a tear. I always wondered what sort of joy, And happiness the house did enjoy. Was there pain and hurt and deep...

Some kids sleep To sounds beating Beating scared hearts Beating man starts Beating woman scarred Beating black tar Racing for life Faking out time Speeding the night Open eyes fright Closing blue eyes Praying through cries Hearts hopes dream Perseverance purple green Arch angel wings Borrowed brown blessings Morning raises shade Man still raged Kids know stay Sleep until safe “Woman come back!” Clothes are packed She leaves, kids go too Man looks doomed Police were called Red...

Premium Member Starting today
Starting today things will be different. There will be no more word vomit thrust on you my friend, I promise on that you can depend. Starting today my words will be succinct and to the point light as not to push you away because I want you to stay. Starting today I won't love you less but my feelings I'll start learning to repress. Starting today I'll faithfully...

Starting Line
Demons in my life... Afraid... Are there demons in my heart. God's love in my eyes... Afraid... Tis too late, blown apart. Running the race backwards I can't catch my breath. To reach the starting line will begin my death. I see my supporters smiles on their face. No idea... ...
