Insignificant


The rush of traffic
slowed as time
delicately
and quietly
painted the sunset
across the city’s skyline
I found an empty park bench
stained with the fading light
and stretched
while waiting in amazement
for the stars to discover a new night

I know to some
this magical show is somewhat insignificant
another day ending
another night beginning
and so on and so forth
but to me
on this rather lonely park bench
and in the midst of time standing still
it’s more than vibrant colors
decorating windows and buildings with the sun’s warmth
it’s home

Red Clay

The long ago
rains
left the path I had to travel
a very deep
and dark red
almost as if it were saturated with the blood
of a thousand tears

There were puddles
here
and there
of what seemed like life’s elixir
flowing freely
between each of my steps . . . unable to resist curiosity
I stop in the midst of my travels
and take a handful of the earth;
it had the consistency of clay
cold and lifeless
as if it were waiting to be molded
into dreams and possibilities
lost in this brief moment
my hands
began to interpret my imagination
shaping
and reshaping
abstract sculptures
as if I were searching for my soul within each creation

Time raced
as I sculpted
and sculpted
until my hands were stained with the color of my journey
new storms came and dissipated
rinsing the earth from my hands
and I continued
toiling
and toiling
taking more
and more of the clay
as if the path was eternal;
as if it would not end
my steps became careless
as my heart
my mind
and my soul
worked to recreate my imagination into something real
my hands became stained again
and again
until I defined the red clay

There are somethings can't can't be forgiven....

I disagree..Sorry
could you forgive a mom who beat you so bad that you still have the scars, who threw glass bottles at you, and called you every name under the son then one day when you said enough was enough you were thrown out and had to live in a hostel where men tried to get into your room and you were still a kid and not once did she say sorry ?


And anger gives you what? I can completely understand why you would not forgive her and if it feels better to say that you'll never forgive her that's your choice. But tomorrow has no place for hate and if that's where you choose to then that means you want to move forward. So move forward with your life and let go of what did not define you.

Forgiveness

Time
the soul’s open wound
spills age upon the flesh
leaving wrinkles
and weary bones
to define the years
good
and bad alike

And as we travel
the days of life
from love
to pain
to understanding
and reconciliation
forgiveness is all we need
to others…and ourselves

Sunrise

Night
silent and still
with its secrets scattered across the sky
like flickering dreams
remained stoic
as if its darkness had been cast by eternity

But there
upon the edge of the earth
a light
akin to a thousand angels awakening
slowly
and subtly
appeared

And their wings
with the quiet
of a whisper'��s breath
began to flutter
until they each took flight
one
by
one
yet together in unison
lifted morning higher and higher
until the secrets that stretched across the sky
faded into the shadows of a new day

Brilliant rays of light
fall upon the earth’s soul
like outstretched hands endeavoring to carry the burdens
the night held captive
paint the world the colors of life
each drop of dew clinging to a shoot of grass
each wave rising and falling to the motions of the sea
each cloud shaped by perception’s eye
offers words of encouragement to the artist born from heaven’s womb

Good morning.

Ok this was long . . . and being that I'm quite tired I had to go back a few times to read this. I like it though. Kind of sums up what life really is/means

Roses are red and violets are blue
Sugar is sweet and I want you.

I seriously have no idea how to take your response.


It is the sense of humour from across the water.

See new poem and feel free to critique.

The poem you wrote, I would like to tweak it for you. I will await your response before I tweak.

Ok I get your point but here's the thing, I write not so much for ork to be "perfect" but rather to be flawed as it is more of a picture of the soul. So I ask that you respect my flaws and tweak what my work. As for your poem I rather not critique it. Your words your thoughts your poetry is a reflection of you. I enjoyed reading your work.

Across Perilous Seas ( . . . into your soft kingdom )

Found emotionally slain, frowned upon, left aground,
Left here at rest on my knees,
What else is there to do but to ease,
Us beyond this level, ever darkening sundown?

What else but for us to steal away from the strong winds that blow
Across our inner, perilous, prevailing seas?

Forgive me for there inside your inner place, you're essential, gentle
Forgiveness flow, your sweet face,

( Your unendingly unyielding and loving heart's place, )

There can be no doubt, there at it's base, fragrant, floral beauties bloom,

You are in bloom, my Love! You are in bloom

O' that I extend to you the wealth of my sorrows,
For inside this garden you've made for us, you have held me near,

Here inside this growing burden of your sadness and heartfelt pain
I find my tomorrows,

Spent. Cold. Left boldly out in a cold, cold rain

Forgive me in your majesty, the mainstay of your love over the years,
For beyond all doubt, I have let you down

Forgive me, my loving woman,
My good and gracious friend,

Forgive me my tears.

Thom Douglas Carlisle ( Irish Tommy Moran ) - Ireland


Tommy this leaves me speechless. It's perfect

Emotions

It is
cold
darkness
rushing
towards
the shore
retreating
back to the
depths
of secrets

Blue
waters
painted
the color
of night
refusing
to remain still

There is
no solace
no safe haven
no calm
serenity
when you
are lost
in a sea
of pain

Moods

Time’s
constant metamorphosis
leave
abstract rhythms
permanently carved into my heart’s beat
grooves
as deep as the culmination of memories
that are
both the sweet
and bitter interpretations of love’s moods
interwoven
through the ages
like a braided rope
meant to bind my soul’s destiny
to eternity

Awww. Thanks, Ainjel. I forgot to mention you in that weird post about who you like on here. I actually liked this one.

By the way, I always read your work, and I love it more than you know.

Sorry I don't comment more. I just... don't comment on most writing.

Keep writing, damnit!


Ok I agree Ainjel . . . this is brilliant and I gotta agree with you . . . Ainjel you know you should write more often!!!

Fear attacks me
chasing me through the night
Light burns my eyes
until I am blind
Darkness surrounds me
sucking away the light
I find insanity
deep within my mind
I look for a purpose
why am I on earth
I ask for a calling
a reason for my birth
Questions with no answers
only silence and tears
no comfort or satisfaction
I'm alone with my fears



I like this . . . deep and powerful

Drunken Midnight

I want to drink
the fluid elixir
that flows from your soul
through heart
and into your garden

I want to taste
each
sweet
seductive
drop
until I become inebriated
by midnight’s lust
and your melodic screams

Then I want to beg you
plead with you
to let me enter your radiant warmth
and become one
with your rhythm
as if we were dancing the night into the morning

I want this
I need this
soul stirring moment to define my lifetime
so that my only memory
will be you
next to me
