Not even the tide,would take her out....

I'm.no strange to love lost
It has no quarrels with me
No mercy at there feet
Just relentless no dates
Not even.the tide would take me out.......
So I plod along my.merry way
Nothing to show for my.life just pain
I will go.now and bury.my head
Among the pages of my.book
For reading diverts all my pain
I.will soon laugh

Swan Song

Swan Song

It's a very old story.
Seems to happen
when someone confuses
wanting to be loved
with being in love.

You wanted me to love you.
I obliged.
Then, joyously
you set about
building for me
a lovely cage,
polishing the image
you would to see
of me,
encouraging always
my approach
of your ideals.

But you never loved me as I am.
nor saw me as I was.
You kept your vision focused
instead
on how you wanted me
to be.

I have slept
a very long while,
but my dreams
will not lay down,
and I've wakened,
strangely wearied.
I long to be seen and loved
as I am
and I want you
to be well and happy--
because I still love you
just the way you are
even
as
I leave you.

Rain drops !

The raindrops battering the windowpane!
The loneliness escalating my heart's pain !

I pace! I pose ! I wonder !
Lightening ripping through the dark clouds that thunder!

Wish he was nearby peeping through the windows across the avenue
A glimpse is all I long for to give my lonesome heart a clue!

“He’s here, he's here," my heart would whisper!
Wish he was next to me in my room so cold, so poor!

The looks in his eyes, the locks of his hair and his smiling face!
No one I marvel more THAN him for an engaging gaze!

His enchanting voice, his magical touch would have me deeply induced!
Forever I would have myself locked in his arms warmly embraced!

"Loneliness"

The plain Ugly Truth about
Cigerette usage!
Forget the sweet aroma
Smell the repulsive ugly truth of gaingreen!
See it for what it is manipulation of the slave
by the master
The fat cat that lives in the mansion on top of the hill
Just like liquor will destroy you fm cirrhosis of the liver
Replaced by a urine and waste bag!
Ugh stink!
Reality check wake up!

The Angel wife that enabled
the handsome addict husband
The manipulator that wrapped her around
His little finger 20 years!
Until his demise
Then he had to quit cold turkey
Or die from one puff!
Her reward loneliness for her retirement years

To be alone
Not 2 but 1
Is just an illusion
A mortal suggestion
If u believe in God
Our Father
Is everpresent
Omnipotent omnipresent omniscience mbe
Easy to say hard to do

When you've given your All to others
Jobs
Family
Children
Patients neighbors
When tragedy strikes
You
And you alone become
One
A solo
Vs.
A Duet
Beware the old friends
From yesteryear
Won't
Be there
Because u have to keep making
Deposits
To friendships
To be able to make
Withdrawals later
Just like a bank account
deposits needed for withdrawals
If u haven't talked to them
Friends
much in years
They too will have cleaved to their husbands
That men pass first normally
Or get hurt hospitalized indefinitely
Leaving a women alone
Or a widow for 20
Or more years
We will have to
Make changes
Adapt
Endure
Survive
Find new friends
New places
New ways to spend our time
New love
And it wont be
E Z
No
It wont!
It will become I me again he she
Not us we our
No team player
Until u find Another
And make the
Effort
to do so
It will take
Willingness
To change
Direction
Planning
And
More willingness
U
Can
Do
It!
Yes
u can!
It's only a
Burden
If
u
let it become one
Just do it
Join some clubs
Find new activities

50 Ways to leave your lover
Paul Simon
Get off the bus gus
Don't be coy roy
Making new plans Stan
Set yourself free Lee
Listen to me
Set yourself free

Or find a new lover

And Now for the Rest of the story Paul Harvey

The Marlboro man is not sexy just make believe
"They can do anything in Hollywood"
Sexy man in a silloutte moon light orange sunset
Cowboy on a horse
No longer is sexy
Those ugly filthy
Disgusting cigerettes will kill him
Like licking an ash tray kisses ugh!
The cold hard truth
Plaque of cigs plugs up
Veins capillaries
From the heart to your extremities
No blood flow to circulate heal
Causing ED amputations
And all manner of diseases
Can rot your tongue lips like ground hamburger
On the face
holes in face
Rot your toes throat
cancer of all kinds
Brain, lungs, skin, mouth etc.
Gangrene surgery
Amputate all extremities
Hands arms
Feet legs all the way to your groin
Urine bag waste bag
I V' s digging in your arm artery
Your tongue dies first
Eyes go bad
Yuck
Slowww painful death
Diapers
Endless
Cure
Don't start smoking!!!!!!!!!!
Or it will cause your wife agony
Of defeat!
Very disheartening
Build up a life
for a lifetime
Then one day it all falls down
Like Humpty Dumpty
Wall broken forever
That part can't be mended repaired
Jenga it all falls down!

Major injury
Strokes
Paralyzed
Hospitalized
He is Institutionalized 2 years
Locked in the system
$1000 a day
All due to nasty nicotine addiction
Planned by cig companies
Every cig over 5000 additives
To make u a slave to the master nicotine
For the wealth of nicotine mansions
Intentional very lucrative
But to those who use
Disheartening beyond repair
Years suffering in nursing homes
Living your golden years
In a diaper full of waste
Waiting your turn in line
HOURS Daily
to be changed by your nurse
Ugh!
U made your choice
Now u SIT in it!
U were warned!

Voice through void

I find myself in this same old place
Feeling way old my usual space

Been here before almost all of my life
Thinking what ifs and feeling like mice

Deadly that silence lurking by shadows
Creeps closer and closer knight arming the gallows

Quiet all around, echo in place
She sounds bright siren sets thunder bolts grace

Voice through void hear pitch clear my love my baby
Accepting my fate, the risk I had to take maybe

Moments with you a martyr lay wait
Can nothing a pedestal I make

Holding with might, the night forsake
Feeling no warmth, a fear I hate

Toughing cold haste still see by blur
Truth sinking feeling abandoned by her

Now all that is left is odor heaven scent
A waking nightmare, tear locked eyes ever bent

Sitting and staring most of time
Pain through the window false whish for my sign

Drops of pure light slice thought face key, memory smile fill, shimmer of three
Avoiding green stew anger to follow stabbing my gut another to be

Spinning in circles loop pity forever
Infinite sadness thick chocking despair disables together

Need to escape unable to move lost in self-doubt, man fits bill
Cornered by loneliness trapped by worlds no sign will

Locked universal a partner be
Hurt waves break tide she is set free

No need to pretend a love once me
Knowing full well you were taking the key

Often, I wonder life probability seen
Patient I delay stepping in stars beam

Scatter and fall light actors final play
I hope one day another might stray

Feeding my love, I will give it away
Not to long now I rock and sway

Whispers lips close soft get near
Transfixed by her gaze kiss tilted neck here

Moving as one unable to fake
I say night mantra, miss you and need you forever future soul mate

You said you loved me!

See me here and tell no lies, of the feelings you have deep inside.
You look at me and all you see, is an object you want to own, how can this be, you say you love me but in your eyes I see, that all you really want is to control me, when I should eat and when I should sleep, this isn't love you feel for me, you just want to control and dominate me, I tell you no and please let me go free, yet you continue to emotional blackmail me, and threaten family if I ever leave, then you tell me your sorry and try to kiss me, once I felt loved that's turned to fear, and all the sweet nothings you whisper in my ear, have no effect cause I know your not sincere, for I now know what you truly are, someone that pretends about feelings and lies who they are, please let me go before it gets to far, be a man let me go or you just might live to regret what I know.

Lost Love

The sadness in our brown eyes as we danced to our lost song
Neither one of us was wrong
We stayed in our relationship way to long
Too much of our love had died
We forgot to keep an open eye
We had nothing but lost love
We tried to bring the relationship back to life
It couldn't survive
there's nothing left but to say good bye
I will always remember the day we fell in love
Good bye to you my lost dove

Gone Away.

How can one say that something has gone away?
I think of you, you have it all
But in a way pay for it with all those lonely nights!
Just waiting for his shine
It comes not so often these days
And you can lay awake all night just wondering
You have your treasure that's been gifted to you
But there's still a need that's craving inside that longs to be met
You can kid yourself you have it all.

My Love Is Without Light

Dark is in my life
The Light from you is gone
You Brought light into my life
I bring dark with me
You are the light
I was the dark
The brightness of life is in you
In me is the depth of darkness
You are Joy of love
I am sadness of loss
What we feel changes
It will never be the same
I am that cause
Did you recover from the loss
Did you lose so much
Did you notice
What we had was true
I did not fight to keep it
No, I pushed it away from me
I could not accept the love that you gave to me
At this point in time, will you give your love to me
It took me to long understand that I needed to accept your love into my heart to hold
I pushed it away

About this poem:
I feel that this poem is about the loss of a great love of my life, I was too young to understand how much this women truly meant to me until the moment I had lost her. Now that I know who I am I will take hold of love and not allow it to stop away for the fact of being scared of love. I will embrace love with my heart and not let go.
