Most Commented Ghazal Poems (66)

IF IT’S DAWN IT’S TIME FOR ME TO YAWN AND MOURN


Heed not these words which utter I
I of foolishness born
Hush to the truth I cannot deny
Because i was birthed only to mourn

I mourn the loss of yesterday
When doors needn’t be locked
A kid could go outside to play
if a visitor came all they did was knocked

I mourn the loss of my friend’s best friend
That is a young man no one should ignore
Despite the fact that he knew it could mean his end
Yet and still the young man took off for war

I mourn for the way the oceans are mistreated and taken advantage of
I mourn for each death, each injury, each disease and I mourn the death for love

The litany of items on my list of complaints is way to long to mention
And I am still mulling over whether or not I should add an extention
I feel as if I were a lamb being tortured and shorn
And the truth is I was solely born to mourn

Flames and fiery breath
Within
Hot breathing nostrals
The kiss of hot fiery breath

Its talons
Held with clench breath
Poised to tear flesh from flesh
Strikes the heart with its talons

Its strikes with venom monsters of the nite beast of mortal
Earth
Dragons of the night
Scales of justice to protect
Its mortal soul

Fighting monsters and humans alike
Dismembers its victims soul
These dragons and monsters of the nite

When I'm with you,
eternity is a step away,
my love continues to grow,
with each passing day.

This treasure of love,
I cherish within my soul,
how much I love you...
you'll never really know.

You bring a joy to my heart,
I've never felt before,
with each touch of your hand,
I love you more and more.

Whenever we say goodbye,
whenever we part,
know I hold you dearly,
deep inside my heart.

So these seven words,
I pray you hold true,
"Forever And Always,
I Will Love You."

When you look inside your heart,
it’s like a priceless work of art,
a thing that cannot be replaced,
but something that should be placed,
in only the most secure location,
but never hidden in isolation.

However like a true masterpiece,
the true value is sloe to release,
and for years is locked away,
because no-one wants to foray,
and invest in what you offer,
to add to their emotional coffer.

But a part of true trust,
is to really open up,
and tell those around what you need,
hoping that they will heed,
and understand what’s real for you,
whilst still remaining true to you.


But at times our trust is shattered,
by those, to us, who really mattered,
and we are left to pick up parts,
of what remains of our heart,
and people wonder why trust fails,
and why we isolate on dark trails.

To rebuild true trust once it’s broken,
is like finding thoughts that were not spoken.
You know it’s there, but know not where,
as you wallow in deep despair.
You just thinks how life’s not fair,
and really think that no-one cares.

But then in time your trust comes back,
and to yourself you make a pact,
that this will never happen to again,
but you know it’s just a matter of when,
as this is just a part of living,
and you must just start forgiving.

A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.

Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.

And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.

Quietly I write the
words that flow from my
head to my pen.

I never know when it will
happen-possibly now maybe
then.

My mind has been full
of emotion-smiles, frowns
and tears

So much more and intense
than ever before in all
my years.

Perhaps it is a crossroad
that I must face and
choose

A totally different path
so I will win
not lose.

I know there must be
change-I think I
can do it.

But maybe it
would be easier to
have someone to
go through it.

It will happen
no matter what-
anyway.

I hope I find you
if not now but
another day.

Forward I go
Head held high
Eyes alight and
Searching a starlit
Sky.

Day or night it
doesn't matter-
Happy inside I
would be rather.

Peace.

YOU’RE SMILE

How can this be a smile so captivates me
So wide and bright, I feel my heard shutter, take flight
A smile that travels so tenderly and fans a flame where none would be
It will never be wasted, totally appreciated, to know that smile is for me
It’s been that way from the start a smile so binding it held my heart
So my darling forgive when I stare, your smile is your breath, my air

I am neither a Moslem nor a Hindu
I am not Christian, Zoroastrian, nor Jew

I am neither of the West nor the East
Not of the ocean, nor an earthly beast
I am neither a natural wonder
Nor from the stars yonder

Neither flesh of dust, nor wind inspire
Nor water in veins, nor made of fire
I am neither an earthly carpet, nor gems terrestrial
Nor am I confined to Creation, nor the Throne Celestial

Not of ancient promises, nor of future prophecy
Not of hellish anguish, nor of paradisic ecstasy
Neither the progeny of Adam, nor Eve
Nor of the world of heavenly make-believe

My place is the no-place
My image is without face
Neither of body nor the soul
I am of the Divine Whole.

I eliminated duality with joyous laughter
Saw the unity of here and the hereafter
Unity is what I sing, unity is what I speak
Unity is what I know, unity is what I seek

Intoxicated from the chalice of Love
I have lost both worlds below and above
Sole destiny that comes to me
Licentious mendicity

In my whole life, even if once
Forgot His name even per chance
For that hour spent, for such moment
I’d give my life, and thus repent

Beloved Master, Shams-e Tabrizi
In this world with Love I’m so drunk
The path of Love isn’t easy
I am shipwrecked and must be sunk.

i see the sun shine
i feel the light touch my body
i tell my self the light is love
I can feel it but i cant touch it

every morning i feel the sun shine
everyday i feel love
i feel the sunshine but i cant reach the source
i feel the love but i cant reach them

in the night i laughed alone
Tried to find love
and the silent night whispered
that i am not deserved to be loved

ANYBODY GOT ME A COT?

So here’s the problem as I see the situation
No one ever looks around too well
Survey the area and it will lead you to information
alas, you must follow me, because I have the map to Hell

I mean if you ask me that’s where everyone is bound
Name me one person you know who never sins
So I searched up, down, on the landscape and found the hollow echo of a bell with not a sound
Now follow me because this is where the madness begins

It begins and ends with fire, heat and unbearable screams
And I’m telling you to get ready for the fire
But remember, prepare yourself for damnable dreams
Because Hell is reserved for every sinner, sucker and liar

In Hell ain’t nobody got no cot, no hammock nor bed
And I tell you to look around at every man, woman and child
Keep the fact that you’re going to Hell firmly planted in your head
Because hell is the price one pays for the planet we earthlings defiled
