PICTURED LOVE
i painted a picture of you yesterday with each stroke the memories flashed by and although i had to put my brushes away today i'll give it a try the yellow for the sun that shined through your hair blue for the color of your eyes red for the lipstick that you use to wear white for the clouds in the sky and greens for the grass below your feet and for the trees that surrounded you in the park where we use to meet ill use the color autumn brown too on the living room wall is where it will stay so before i go to bed each night i can blow a loving kiss your way and tell you to sleep real tight though it wont replace your touch and your feel its all i have left of you and even though i know its not real it keeps me from feeling blue sometimes i pull it down and we dance to the songs of our lasting love and i know that there is no second chance i trust you're with the lord above i remember the day the angels came and stole you away from me since then i've never been the same i doubt that i will ever be and for you a kiss good night my love until i see you again and we'll be together again above i'll keep missing you til then writings from the tombs.... |

My amazing friend
I told you I would never again, Let someone take my heart. Here I'm sitting wanting you, And hate that we're apart. Everyday you're in my thoughts, Every night you're in my dreams. I can't believe what's happening, Is this really what it seems? Every morning as I wake, Each night as I drift to sleep, Those hours of every day, These moments, away they creep. The kisses shared between us, Have always reached the sky. As your lips part I'm anxious, My spirit seems to fly. The inch seems to shorten, So close yet still so far, Time seems to have frozen, I feel how close you are. My breathing is now lost, Along with every thought.... This dream is put on pause, 'Cause now the alarm goes off. Take a chance to know me, To let me share it all. And my friend one day soon For me perhaps you'll fall. Our friendship we now have Is something that I'd miss But maybe once we both let go We will find eternal bliss. ellgee1976 is the author |

It's time for you to go I pray that time We next spend together Will never end Go on forever There's so much more For us to do So much more I could do for you. Written by SugarJen |

Walks With Wind
In the darkness of the Kiva, Shaman chants Smoke filled, sacred sage burns Flames flicker, softly against the soot covered walls Today I become woman My name can be spoken now I can hear it whispered softly in the wind I am no longer just girl I am Walks With Wind Dreamer of my clan I carry the sacred bundle Protecting it with my very life From it the spirits speak In my dreams I dream of the future of my people Famine and war Moving to a new world Children born To carry us through Twin brothers Fighting across the sky And the Phoenix rises From the ashes and dust I ride on its back Amidst the flames Spear clutched in one hand Sacred bundle in the other I must ensure my peoples future For I am Walks With Wind Dreamer of my clan...

Untitled,,for now
Once I sought love, pure and true Only to find that its been distorted by time Once I sought God, pure and true Only to find he too has been distorted by time Once I sought humanity, pure and true Only to find that we have distorted ourselves by time I've searched the heavens far and wide I've searched the oceans vast and deep I've searched the mountains every peak and valley I've searched all the lands known to man Weary now I rest my feet and soul upon the shores of time Waiting and contemplating the reality of me Shredding all of my fantasies Discarding all of my dreams All that I have sought, my eyes so blind by distortion And as I wait I claw the webs of distortion from my eyes Stepping outside of myself I see now it was I who was distorted Falling to my knees wracked with pain and tears In between the sobbing and screaming words fell from the sky Upon my ears they fell and God spoke to me My child so distorted and deluded,wipe your tears , rise again Everything you have sought has been within you the whole time Seek again and you shall find, look within and you will see Touch and you will feel, you see everything you seek is so real Hold your head high and look out, see all the world before your eyes Bow your head and all you see is your own weary feet, bloodied and torn, ready to accept defeat The light it shines from you , touching so many and warming a chosen few Rise up my child, become who you are, open your soul and find the words Written and spoken ,soon to be heard, touch your hand upon another Reach for those who cannot see, cannot hear, shed your light and warmth upon their souls Open your heart to the world, cry your tears and heal your pain, for the sun shines after the rain Author ChubbyCherubPoet |

Building
There is beauty in a wall, Looking at its height so tall. Seeing all the rocks of ages, Looking into all the pages. Pages of a time before, Tales of life, tales of lore. Listen to the sounds inside, Tales of old cannot hide. Hidden in a land within, Tales of life can now begin. Hear the tales of rocks and stones, Hidden deep within these tomes. Written from a mortals dream, Come to life beneath the stream. Walk along the golden shore, Reading of the tales of lore. Lore and song are passed down, From a sage not written down. Hear these tales of life and love, Passed to you from high above. Above a star and guiding light, Sharing dreams oh so bright. Feel your dreams and life within, As your building does begin. Begin now to build yourself, Or with friends an earthly wealth. Build this thing short or tall, Look at life like this old wall. Author Gryphyn |

My Sweet Freak
I really am lost for the words that i want to say even though I talked to you just about everyday Our lives had been set down the same dark road its was a path that we both struggled to hold We did cross lines where friends don't go why we did is a reason we shall only know You knew things about me that no one else will and i knew things about you that are hidden still But i know that a friend to you is all i could be and i hope this is truly something you could see If you ever wanted more than what you had told i would have been there for you i hope you know And in my heart your a friend that i truly love eventhough i live below and you now live above And as i sit here heart broken alone in my room i know i will remember you every time i see the moon A smile comes to my face everytime i think of me and you and a tear to my eye when i realize our time is now thru Friends till the end i know is what we would always say but i never thought i would ever have to face this day And now at night when the freaks come out to play it just wont be the same since god took you away Cause now my hearts broken in a way that won't mend and i will never have anyone the way i had you my friend written by Ace Covington you rawk Ace...simple as that |

A gorgeous woman sits
.........................in an elaborate garden Her beauty sweet and true ..........................soars as rose petals on the wind. She sings a smooth symphony .........................whispers powerful pictures of life into the lake and lets them swim away. Soon she will have no more dreams or gifts ..............................left to give anyone. The breeze is cool as it blows through her hair ...................the flowers are covered with fresh dew and the air is filled with mist. A sleeping dog lies on her red satin dress.

The well of the Heart
There's a finite amount of space that's inside Which can be consumed with past hurts That remain...ones we may choose to hide Although we want to believe as if they are gone Unless truly released and let go of One's next life in love becomes pawn My friends I have seen this pain take away Stopping what was...or could have been so Fulfilling... during a much brighter day For hidden pain passes judgement on what is to come Reading tablets of old stored away deep Contemplating the truth it had once known In this way new is made old...and the old made anew Past leading present...to it's own end Reliving days long ago...believing them true What we store up inside is what we will share Therefore let go of the pain and The darkness that left the life and heart bare Find the happiness lost...then trade it for the pain Prepare for what surely will come A day the heart can smile...once again Author creativesoul |

Jessie Lee,… The Goddess of the Sea ~
Untouched by human progress since the moment of my birth I’ve danced with Mother Nature in the bushlands of the earth I’ve walked within my footsteps leaving traces in the sand I’ve mingled with the creatures of this mystic wondrous land Playing in the wild by the undulating sea I’ve watch the cosmic spirit unveil herself to me Embracing me with love Tormenting me with storms Sharing her persona in a multitude of forms I’ve shared in her quintessence Kissed the tears she’s wept for men She’s mentored me relentlessly in all the ways of Zen Like a Mother, sister, daughter Like a dedicated friend It’s hard to share these things in words in a way you’ll comprehend No doctrines are required No chapels made of stone Her spirit’s free of all mankind’s pompous selfish throne She meanders in the wind in never-ending play She shows her face with purest grace in a natural bouquet You can try to pin her down You can claim to speak her mind But the only way to know her is to let yourself unwind Don’t fall to man’s entrapments Don’t lose yourself in ‘nation’ All are one and one is all Tis the way she made creation The sandy beach is restless with the beating of her heart And all she really asks of us is to appreciate her art ~~~Author Abracadabra |

These Dreams of Love”
You are my heart. You’re like a work of art. You’re my everything. You put in my step that spring. Yes it is you that makes my sky blue. And makes things seem so true. As I watch the sun goes down As I look around. I want to feel your touch. I long for it so much. Every night it is the same. As I hear you call out my name. I feel your fingers upon my skin. Makes me go wild and my head spin. This feeling I have deep inside. It can not be denied. This can’t be all it is. I know there has to be more to this. You see I believe. These dreams of mine will not deceive. That somewhere out there. You are there somewhere and this is not in despair. Just to have that day come true and to have you hold. Me within your arms I will fold. For you I will give all. And it will be my name you will call. Until that day comes it seems. You will remain right here in my dreams. Author TxsGal |

Pride
Nickolas I will always love you and always be there for you. He entered my life at six months old with no one to be his father. As occurs all too much in this world, someone just didn't bother. My love for his mother, grew and grew. Something else happened, I fell in love with him too. Nine years went by too fast Remembering- The times I ran when he fell. Listening to the stories he`d tell. Watching the world through his eyes. Hurting every time he cries. He is a wonderful child, with a brilliant mind. Compassionate, funny, exceedingly kind. It cannot be measured all I learned from him. I was supposed to be the teacher. Nine years went by too fast. For his birthday this year, he asked. Could we be a family again? Now, that's heart wrenching stuff, from a child of ten. Last night I cried, when we ended our call. No, it wasn't for the, I love you. You will see. The tears were a mixture, of pride and sad. For the word he chose, to call me was... Dad Author kc0003 |

Beautiful gray skies hypnotizes and conjures daydreams
Drawn to the window while , what seems like, millions of frozen petals, float gracefully The hardened earth invites readily as its slowly blanketed by mystical serenity The wind guides and cradles its children The beautiful gray smiles down as it shares itself to all who will admire Childlike happiness grows inside with each passing minute Even the bitter cold of winter has its alluring traits More quickly the travelers fall now In an attempt to conceal the last of the fallen heroes left by autumn Still hypnotized unable to free myself from the portal I share my soul, if even for a few moments, with the beauty of the gray cold Obscurelight |

s It Still There?”
Life was so sweet. Can we repeat? What we once had. Or will it turn out bad? One will never know. How life will go. Until you try. And learn to apply. What is in your heart. And not pick it apart. Time will tell. Can this be real? Again let’s walk. And learn to talk. What we want in life. And deal with the strife. Let’s learn once again. And put away the pain. Of what life could be. And take the time to see. If once again love will. Have that same thrill. Can it come back our way? And this time be here to stay. K.L.M 12/16/2007 Troy only time will tell.blushing |

Frustration grows
As I kick the rocks along the road Hands shoved deeply into my pockets Warding off the bitter cold Walking to where I don't know Just walking to get out Get away, leave it behind Snowflakes falling softly to the ground Yet the sight just frustrates me more Muttering to myself now Take me away, just get me out of here To no one in particular Just saying the words because they need to be said Knowing where I want to be but the time just isn't right And her voice I hear, though I've never heard it before Be patient my sister, the time will come soon, you will see This is where you belong, this is where your soul calls home Her voice alone reaches out and soothes my disrupted soul And I slowly walk towards home.... |
