Weighted With a Feather
There is no solace in dreams nor any in sleep, night has no medicine for daylight afflictions. I once found a wild field of light in a dark forest, I discovered a silver pool on the edge of a mountain and there rested. A down spiraling feather takes forever. All else has been something that happened when I was looking somewhere else....

Premium Member Weighted too long
somebody lies in wait it may be me, it may be me whilst all intangibles permeate I'll feel different, momentarily just wait, just wait I am too scared to be face to face with fate, oh that I hate but I see round corners despite mists that obfuscate though not into the future let me sit in peace, remove this weight I'll just wait, knowing...

Premium Member Work Vs Pleasure
Why is pleasure measured in moments, while work is measured in weeks or years? Pleasures are like insubstantial fictions, sweet treats gone in the tasting or perhaps flowers, that once cut, wither. So don't be enthralled by fickle snippets of passion. Work and service have the weight of reward, by labor's honest toil, we fashion, forge and provide....

Weighted Rock
I am rock Kneeling at the mountain of life Surrounded by the grains of shattered dreams Awashed by a sea of tears I look towards the precipice Piercing the heavens above me Overwhelmed with emotions I reach out for a helping hand But none know of this journey The steps that got me here Not until my pain cries out It’s crimson tears of peace The silence...

Premium Member Weighted By the Fog
The crows' caws weighted by the fog float upon heavy air and katydids sing elaborate tunes, songs not so rare Summer's vocals freely vibrate Around headed to fall The last chance to flirt and dance Before Jack Frost's first call The hum of a well tuned engine Summer's delicate sounds Shortly will be ushered into winter's end, wait__ spring's crown ...

I'M Weighted Down
Dragging thoughts around In my head... Trying to remember all you said. The sun is still shining! Spring is on the way... I know, Day by day, You will be a memory, To be tossed aside Like these winter days which Have left me cold And Longing for Spring's promises! Cynthia...

Weighted Tears
A gloomy sky choked back the Sun No one spoke on this day of mourning Silently, gravely, sadly, painfully This group marches on The procession stops short At the sound of a piercing whistle But quietly my mother's lips began to tremble The day continued dark and gray My heart once so light Darkened that day I stood as tall as a six-year old could And...

His Weighted Heart
No matter where I am I will always be condemn My heart will bear the blame Slowly dying due to shame No matter who helps me bear this pain My body will continue to strain My heart bears a knife Making horrid sounds like a fife As the world continues day by day My mind falls into dismay My heart slowly sinks into a pit Rejected...

Weighted Ground
I stand here lonely on this weighted ground The wind never able to knock me around For I'm in love so deep it's to him I'm forever bound That very love is one with which I always cause myself to drown I pick myself up but the force just again pulls me back down I'm lost many times waiting by...

So Weighted
lives were ended-- toothbrushes won't be used again, families will cry over the shampoo left in bottles that will never wash the sweet hair they once combed, the leftover gas in the car tanks of the deceased will burn out into the air like the spreading of ashes. Tonight I'll clean my room for those who won't again, for the families...
