Inspirational Poems (4,950)

I Am
Because
I=AM
Dwells
Within

There is a heaviness that falls upon the soul
Demanding a precise and exacting toll
Measured in endless nothingness day and night
Obscuring the distant horizon of glimmering light

What is this innervated feeling of hopelessness
Banishing the mind in degrees of dispossess
Emotions fading and falling to the barren ground
Sunken depression pushes deep and profound

Time moves slowly in a grand progression
Devoid of voice affecting definitive expression
Anticipating soaring on whirlwinds of change
Replacing the darkness in a swift light exchange

Feelings evaporate into undusted thought
Oppression laden in full anxious fraught
Lift up the lucid burden of minds unchained
Live a life in union with peace unrestrained

Glance back on memories in cloyed reflection
A mission of freedom in adjunct projection
The misty sunrise of breaking new days
Washes over heaviness like simple nosegays

Visions reflect a new dawning to apprise
Carrying thoughts to accelerated highs
Contemplate the emotion of passionate elation
And emerge like a butterfly a most unique creation

*** Glisten ***



“If one
Has ears
To hear
Its heart,
- In peace,
Finds rest,
For there
A nest
To tears…

*** Root ***

There are
No fears,
For those
Who know
To feel;
Walk slow,
Stay still, -
To shield
From spears; -

*** Root ***

Right yield
Is when
Each poor
Gets rich,
While kings
In all
Their might,
Fall small,
Kneel, healed; -

*** Root ***

What shines
A pearl, - ?! -
Each dew
Of earth,
More bright, -
For sky
Brings light,
- When sun
At sight!..”

*** Shades ***



“In blades
Of grass,
Sun fades, -
With ticks,
A heart,
Now waits
Thin leaves
To fall
And part…

*** Root ***

Those eyes
Have seen
New paths
To walk,

With ways
To talk,
Like one
Who lives,
Then, dies… -

*** Root ***

For now,
Just dust…
It tells
How trees
Have learnt
In wind,
To bow,
Once birds
Have swarmed; -

*** Root ***

Deep roots
Seek lore, -
Cold springs
Then bless
This earth, -
Not more
Than less,
- Like strings
Weave core…”

*** Glimpse ***



“Each strain
Of thought
Thou rise
In heart, -
For those
Who fought
In wars
Of mind,
They train -

*** Root ***

As when
One feels
How world
Is blind,

Each spark
Of light
Shows dark
To find
Its wheels, -

*** Root ***

What heals
Best wounds,
When crowds
Seek death? -
Who steals
Their joy,
Those dreams?
In cries,
Dim sounds…

*** Root ***

It seems
In change
Time, speaks, -
Thou world
Get strange,
With tides
In peaks; -
- Light - takes
No sides…”

I'm not you, you are not me?
but we are you see?
This seperation was meant to be,
find your place at your own pace,
be the you that you want to be,
then in time you will see,
OUR UNITY.

*** Shush!.. ***



“But Truth
Can not
Be told, -
Thou one
Must live
To know
Its Lore, -
Right core
To give;

*** Root ***

A word
Thy lips
Will bend
Or twist, -
Like sword
To mend
Each pulse
In wrist, -
Thin chord; -

*** Root ***

Must not
Be said
What can’t
Be heard, -
For paths
Are strayed,
While sights
Reach swayed,
Tongues slurred; -

*** Root ***

Thou warp
A note
To pierce
Blind hearts,
Eyes blurred,
For lies
Have spurred,
While dark
Has thrived!..”

*** Red rush ***



“Where the roots
Hide shells
- And the ferns
Twist wells
Out of
Their shoots,
- Lil’ springs
With strings
Make turns; –

*** Root ***

Yet, the dwarf
Musk deer
Quick learns
- To have
No fear,
- Brim stones
Slow morph
In fog
Old seer; -

*** Root ***

There the frog
Jumps near,
- To the wharf
A sphinx, -
Sun flares
In the spear,
Red rush
On the boat,
Who sinks; – ”

*** END of Part III: Poetic Pillars – Monads: The Harp ***

East of October
in the nebulous zone
shivers make up the dark
an unsettling of dust
on a foreign road

You shall know me
by the wake I leave
time leaves tiny distances
chirping of birds in the hills
a dead reckoning

A sudden movement of the music
rising to the canopy
star shifter uplifts the heavens
when the waters are calm
I see you as you are

*** Glare at dawn ***



“In these
Wild lands
- Where the trees
Guard the cliffs,
Owls hide
At ease;
- Last bear
Still stands
For gifts; –

*** Root ***

Cold springs
Cut through
In riffs,
- Like on
A side
Bell rings
To glare
Meek ferns
At dawn; -

*** Root ***

Too shy,
The gold fawn
Waits the fog
In a
Long stare
To the sky,
While the bard
Search for
His bride; – ”
