Liberation
They were lost in the white hot light
The might of the light so bright
They couldnt put up the fight
Then they saw a small speck of dark
They ran & ran
Then the dark came over them
They were then washed clean
The trappings of fame washed away
The might of the light so bright
They couldnt put up the fight
Then they saw a small speck of dark
They ran & ran
Then the dark came over them
They were then washed clean
The trappings of fame washed away

EXTRACTION
He took her body
She took his money
He forgets to praise
She always request a raise
They come together
When they need each other
Always for extraction
None remembered the attraction
She met someone who really looked
He met someone who cooked
She requested his attention
Her qualities he always mention
They then realized sad to say
They would have parted anyway
Final extraction was done
But this one they viewed with fun
She took his money
He forgets to praise
She always request a raise
They come together
When they need each other
Always for extraction
None remembered the attraction
She met someone who really looked
He met someone who cooked
She requested his attention
Her qualities he always mention
They then realized sad to say
They would have parted anyway
Final extraction was done
But this one they viewed with fun

About this poem:
this poem is what comes to me=it is a reflection of me and my view of the world and hopefully u are part of that -thanks :)-Breaking Free
The mind is a powerful tool,
It protects
Like a cage.
That secret,
Unknown for years;
Will be for years,
In solitude.
Without a trace
Not a memory
Of this secret they hold.
But when the mind is ready
To let go and release,
Memories of long ago…
Awaken inside.
Like a stab wound…
The spirit aches.
Like a prisoner,
Fear entangles,
Locked up for years..
Fear,
Anxiety,
Feelings never expressed,
Sentenced to silence.
Now they are free..
Free to be them,
No chains binding them down,
No bars to live behind.
Free to walk
On memory lane,
Free to share
Expressions,
Never spoken.
But what do you do
When captivity
Was a way of life?
Now you are free
But have molded
To living in chains,
Behind bars.
Freedom is like
A whole new culture,
A new way of life.
To explore and learn
This new life,
At times is scary.
It seems foreign
And a little uneasy.
Once the victim,
Takes one step,
Turns the corner,
Waving goodbye
To the prison in the
Mind..
A whole new person,
Begins to come forth.
Strength,
Wisdom,
Compassion,
Begin to arise…
Now they no longer
Are victims inside.
They are a hero that
Survived.
The trauma they hid..
Begins to come forth ..
Reclaiming themselves.
They are the strongest,
You will see around..
The most intuitive and
Enduring people that will arise
To Any occasion.
If they can survive
The memory unfolded,
They will survive throughout there lives.
It protects
Like a cage.
That secret,
Unknown for years;
Will be for years,
In solitude.
Without a trace
Not a memory
Of this secret they hold.
But when the mind is ready
To let go and release,
Memories of long ago…
Awaken inside.
Like a stab wound…
The spirit aches.
Like a prisoner,
Fear entangles,
Locked up for years..
Fear,
Anxiety,
Feelings never expressed,
Sentenced to silence.
Now they are free..
Free to be them,
No chains binding them down,
No bars to live behind.
Free to walk

Without You,Life is sack of pain
I want you back in my life again
Without you, life is a sack of pain
Like the burning flames of the stars
Unlike the cool we feel from so far
My heart is burning but there is no fume
All u see is the smiles, hear unreal tune
I cry with tears that cannot be seen
You care no more how I have been
Missing you is just a misery
In my life, there is nothing left to be
I bleed and I breathe my blood
For life without you for me is death
Can I beg you? I am down on my knees
I know my pain you no more feel
Even if I end my life in your name
Will your love I ever regain?
I want you back in my life again
Without you, life is a sack of pain
Even if I end my life in your name
Will your love I ever regain?
Without you, life is a sack of pain
Like the burning flames of the stars
Unlike the cool we feel from so far
My heart is burning but there is no fume
All u see is the smiles, hear unreal tune
I cry with tears that cannot be seen
You care no more how I have been
Missing you is just a misery
In my life, there is nothing left to be
I bleed and I breathe my blood
For life without you for me is death
Can I beg you? I am down on my knees
I know my pain you no more feel
Even if I end my life in your name
Will your love I ever regain?
I want you back in my life again
Without you, life is a sack of pain
Even if I end my life in your name
Will your love I ever regain?

Post CommentLife Goes By
To go though life in such a way
That makes things go by each day
The days go by so quickly now
You ask yourself I can’t see how
As we age we all seem slow
But still we wonder where did it go
For yesterday was oh so clear
Yet tomorrow seems it won’t be here
The answer for all is not real clear
But some believe that the end is near
For the world has changed without the fear
That God has left and is no where near
But this I say to all of thee
God’s word has warned us all to see
He’ll be here when all is done
And still be the only One
For in his word he says to thee
I am the way I am the key
For fools believe there is no Man
Whom gave his son for all at hand
His son hath died so we may live
But still it’s hard for us to give
The praise and love to this One
Who gave his one and only Son
That makes things go by each day
The days go by so quickly now
You ask yourself I can’t see how
As we age we all seem slow
But still we wonder where did it go
For yesterday was oh so clear
Yet tomorrow seems it won’t be here
The answer for all is not real clear
But some believe that the end is near
For the world has changed without the fear
That God has left and is no where near
But this I say to all of thee
God’s word has warned us all to see
He’ll be here when all is done
And still be the only One
For in his word he says to thee
I am the way I am the key
For fools believe there is no Man
Whom gave his son for all at hand
His son hath died so we may live
But still it’s hard for us to give
The praise and love to this One
Who gave his one and only Son

A little prayer for peace on CS (and on Earth).
The Earth is deeply, truly changing
We in care are as one engaging
So Let us still our fear and raging
Others can be sorely trying
Leave us hurt, in pain and crying
Being misunderstood can leave us sighing
Yet remember we are humankind
Peace and wisdom we all shall find
Let’ s leave anger at another behind
And so tomorrow is another day
Let us live it in a different way
By putting love in all we say
We in care are as one engaging
So Let us still our fear and raging
Others can be sorely trying
Leave us hurt, in pain and crying
Being misunderstood can leave us sighing
Yet remember we are humankind
Peace and wisdom we all shall find
Let’ s leave anger at another behind
And so tomorrow is another day
Let us live it in a different way
By putting love in all we say

About this poem:
Category; forgivenessOffered in humility and respect
Om Shanti

HE HEARS
Day comes and night goes
As does my torrent of thoughts and feelings
I wish I could stop them, but to no avail
It robs me of peace and reignites more pain
Then, my constant companion speaks and says,
“You can’t escape; he did you in, just give in!”
What to do, who to seek, where are the answers I so desperately seek?
I ask and ask and want to forgive, I call to God and know He hears
He gives me strength where there is none; I get back up and start again
As does my torrent of thoughts and feelings
I wish I could stop them, but to no avail
It robs me of peace and reignites more pain
Then, my constant companion speaks and says,
“You can’t escape; he did you in, just give in!”
What to do, who to seek, where are the answers I so desperately seek?
I ask and ask and want to forgive, I call to God and know He hears
He gives me strength where there is none; I get back up and start again

The less - the better
The less you ask the better -
Leave questions to the fall.
The less you give the better -
The less I'll pay for loss.
The less you squander promise -
The less you'll ask in kind.
The less I think of loving -
The less I care for life.
Keep making false impression,
Keep thinking: she is mine.
My life like barren ground
Is nourished on ... lies.
Leave questions to the fall.
The less you give the better -
The less I'll pay for loss.
The less you squander promise -
The less you'll ask in kind.
The less I think of loving -
The less I care for life.
Keep making false impression,
Keep thinking: she is mine.
My life like barren ground
Is nourished on ... lies.

About this poem:
Sometimes you yourself ask for it.
quantum emotion
love and hate cannot coexist in
the same soul at the same time
---
rebel Sudanese tribes
Mexican cartel bribes
Afghanistani warlords
casualty scoreboards
disappearing in Argentina
Junta censored political arena
thirties in unCivil Spain
civilian Kurds brutally slain
hoofed sweeping Mongol hordes
more acts of unspeakable words
empire master warrior race
atrocities in another place
American Indian genocide
just no safe place to hide
whole world has cornered hate
too many places to enumerate
stage left or stage right
they march to hot spotlight
loudly shouting soliloquy
to continue on this MUST be
hard stance must be taken
all our enemies are forsaken
right here, left to rot
who's to die, matters not
the only matter is to win
being "them" a mortal sin
their extermination justified
that's why they all have died
our love thrown in burial pit
hateful abomination to commit
no place for a brother's love
righteously we kill the dove
religious or atheist in belief
all who live, share the grief
our hearts with hate defiled
differences want to be reviled
shown the way that love returns
with forgiveness mankind learns
from age-old prophets lessons
give our enemy honest blessings
love brother human as our own
peace and charity in kind shown
whatever love we give away
can make tomorrow's peaceful day
