Bittersweet
When I leave this Earth that I have walked upon...
Will I be glad or sad I'm gone?...
If there's a chance to return again...
Dare I come back?.....God knows I've sinned...
The bitter salts of this cursed Earth...
Taste sweet to children tricked since birth...
Sour things seemed sweet to me...
Such things I never knew would hurt...
Ice isn't warm, cold cannot heat...
You won't get tricked, get tricked like me...
I'll look for you in Earth's worst times...
Tell you the truth.....salt isn't sweet.....
Will I be glad or sad I'm gone?...
If there's a chance to return again...
Dare I come back?.....God knows I've sinned...
The bitter salts of this cursed Earth...
Taste sweet to children tricked since birth...
Sour things seemed sweet to me...
Such things I never knew would hurt...
Ice isn't warm, cold cannot heat...
You won't get tricked, get tricked like me...
I'll look for you in Earth's worst times...
Tell you the truth.....salt isn't sweet.....

About this poem:
A few thoughts....Happy Thanksgiving.
The enchanted forests
A giant black caterpillar
With the haunting orange spot in the middle
As if dressed for a Halloween party
Expanding and contracting
To its internal drumming beat
May never finish crossing the road.
Where is he headed anyway?
Things get blown out of proportion
When you focus on them long enough
A tiny drop under the microscope
Reveals bugs and creatures of all kinds
Not seen by a naked eye
Dive deeper and you can see cells
Dive even deeper...
You may drown and never finish exploring
Or take another path instead
And imagine things that never existed
Wandering in the enchanted forests of your dreams
With the haunting orange spot in the middle
As if dressed for a Halloween party
Expanding and contracting
To its internal drumming beat
May never finish crossing the road.
Where is he headed anyway?
Things get blown out of proportion
When you focus on them long enough
A tiny drop under the microscope
Reveals bugs and creatures of all kinds
Not seen by a naked eye
Dive deeper and you can see cells
Dive even deeper...
You may drown and never finish exploring
Or take another path instead
And imagine things that never existed
Wandering in the enchanted forests of your dreams

About this poem:
Sometimes fairytales feel real
online today!THE HOPE FOR YOU
I’m not afraid, I just hope
I breathe, I listen and I see
Anxiety, passion and despair
Happiness, love and desire.
Come. But come to stay
Respect what we can have
And I’ll be your sun and you be my moonlight.
Together you’ll be one to grow.
You are whatever you want to be,
But for me it will smell of flower
With perfume of eternal longing.
You have nothing to fear.
Lost in knots of love strings
We are entitled to mad happiness.
Shut my mouth with yours
I’ll lead you to that place
Follow the road, turn in madness
Skirts the pain and goes into 'Love'...
I don’t need you to be eternal
Even if you swear to me in love
I just want to look and be able to trust
Not afraid of the scars of pain
Wipe away the ghosts of the past
And conquer what I’ve always wanted
Open your once-closed heart
Waiting for you, to be happy!
I breathe, I listen and I see
Anxiety, passion and despair
Happiness, love and desire.
Come. But come to stay
Respect what we can have
And I’ll be your sun and you be my moonlight.
Together you’ll be one to grow.
You are whatever you want to be,
But for me it will smell of flower
With perfume of eternal longing.
You have nothing to fear.
Lost in knots of love strings
We are entitled to mad happiness.
Shut my mouth with yours
I’ll lead you to that place
Follow the road, turn in madness
Skirts the pain and goes into 'Love'...
I don’t need you to be eternal
Even if you swear to me in love
I just want to look and be able to trust
Not afraid of the scars of pain
Wipe away the ghosts of the past
And conquer what I’ve always wanted
Open your once-closed heart
Waiting for you, to be happy!

About this poem:
THE HOPE FOR YOU
Love Is Like Finding A Lost Coin
Rejoice being loved and adored
Be gentle with each other
Seek and you shall find answers
Slow down from the busy race
Distractions coming everywhere
Find some shelter and rest
Listen when you are calm and quiet
Only you can create lasting peace
Not by some half-baked plans
True wisdom accepts tranquility
Nobody is more deserving than you
Time may be either lost or found
Like love either hidden or exposed
Being lost in time is natures gift
Being lost in love is being found
Make what cannot be seen felt
Make what cannot be understood
Known to others who cannot feel
Love is like finding a lost coin
Be gentle with each other
Seek and you shall find answers
Slow down from the busy race
Distractions coming everywhere
Find some shelter and rest
Listen when you are calm and quiet
Only you can create lasting peace
Not by some half-baked plans
True wisdom accepts tranquility
Nobody is more deserving than you
Time may be either lost or found
Like love either hidden or exposed
Being lost in time is natures gift
Being lost in love is being found
Make what cannot be seen felt
Make what cannot be understood
Known to others who cannot feel
Love is like finding a lost coin

About this poem:
We always feel sad when something is lost, but very happy when it is found again.Strong Enough to Catch You
Am I strong enough to catch you
If you want to fall into my arms
Falling shadows that don’t last
Fleeting glimpses from the past
Share my feelings come alive
Changing right before our eyes
You’re all I ever needed to survive
A love that only comes around
Maybe only once in a lifetime
A quiet shoreline path to follow
Sounds of one heart beating hollow
Search between the sun and sea
Search under a clouded canopy
Waiting forever and an eternity
For when you finally do arrive
Am I strong enough to catch you
If you want to fall into my arms
If you want to fall into my arms
Falling shadows that don’t last
Fleeting glimpses from the past
Share my feelings come alive
Changing right before our eyes
You’re all I ever needed to survive
A love that only comes around
Maybe only once in a lifetime
A quiet shoreline path to follow
Sounds of one heart beating hollow
Search between the sun and sea
Search under a clouded canopy
Waiting forever and an eternity
For when you finally do arrive
Am I strong enough to catch you
If you want to fall into my arms

About this poem:
Time is the only portal we must travel in our journey home.Worship What Matters
This body will turn to dust
There’s nothing left
We can do no more
I’ve given it my best
So many high points
Not much room to spare
What gets the best of me
Every time beyond compare
A smile that greets me warmly
A hand when help is needed
A cocky smile all the while
Is better left conceded
The body will drown
When we’re cut off from air
Do we still do what we dare
Sometimes beyond compare
That delicate act the first time
I rode without training wheels
Down the somewhat smooth sidewalk
In my memory banks reveal
A time when I could feel
Such Joy ! Such Warmth !
Everyday is just a moment
Time will travel on
I just give you my greatest
Blessings of all time
There’s nothing left
We can do no more
I’ve given it my best
So many high points
Not much room to spare
What gets the best of me
Every time beyond compare
A smile that greets me warmly
A hand when help is needed
A cocky smile all the while
Is better left conceded
The body will drown
When we’re cut off from air
Do we still do what we dare
Sometimes beyond compare
That delicate act the first time
I rode without training wheels
Down the somewhat smooth sidewalk
In my memory banks reveal
A time when I could feel
Such Joy ! Such Warmth !
Everyday is just a moment
Time will travel on
I just give you my greatest
Blessings of all time

About this poem:
The feeling you get when you worship what matters in life.
What is love?
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
“I don't think so” she quickly said out loud.
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
“I know but you're just saying that”.
What have I got to do or say to get you to take me seriously?
“Try being yourself once in a while, not someone you think I'll like”
I'll be whatever you want me to be!
“Exactly but that won't be you”.
It's been going on like this for months.
She wants me to be myself.
I want her to take me seriously.
It got to a point when she said “If you loved me you'd do it for me”.
I said “If you loved me you wouldn't ask”.
What exactly is love? It's something I've thought about over and over.
She thinks she has the answer.
“What is love then” I asked her?
“It's the yearnings you get when someone you love is away from you” she said determinedly.“The melting sensation when they kiss you and the feelings of hatred when you see them talking to another woman”.
“That's love? Well I get all those feelings as well” I offered.
“You're just saying that” she said.
“I don't think so” she quickly said out loud.
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
“I know but you're just saying that”.

About this poem:
I have long been a romantic but don't think I have ever truly been in love.I think I might have been in a sort of love when I was about 13, 14 or 15 and had huge crushes on several girls at that stage of my life but was that really love?
I know that many of my relationships were based on 'lust' not 'love' but as I don't really know what love is can I be sure. Anyway this poem, such as it is, is based on my frustration of not really knowing whether I have experienced love in my life as yet.
For someone I’ve loved before.
I love the personality he has
It’s like dancing a jazz
You will not notice time passed
And just enjoying together a wine in a glass
A pure heart and crazy person, but never shook
He may not be a good cook
That’s alright we can just base on his look
And I can give him a cook book???
It’s been a good day since we meet
Every day after work my feet
Longing for home can’t be gone in the street
To talk to this man and comfortably seat
The sky and ocean may be blue
But my feelings for you is so true
Tomorrow is not a promise
But for sure I will be here in time of your crisis
I thank GOD with all my heart
That I have him in my cart
Someone who’s jolly and super smart
Even we are apart
HIGH FIVE! With our amazing start??

About this poem:
When u can’t say the words u wanted to say or elaborate the word I LOVE YOU to someone and there there...
If.....
Have A listen...:)
if we make the rules
and we’re in control
if all we can lose
is an empty soul….....
1-then why should I be loyal
if none are greater than me
what is there to obey
but my own vanity
2-I’ll claim my own image
my name shall be adored
and be equal to my pride
an idol for the world
3-I’ll assume authority
by all that is divine
disregarding ancient truth
and claim all wisdom is mine
4-my desire will drive me
on fortunes’ endless quest
drunk on the wine of fame
my greed will never rest
5-my parents I will blame
the elders I will scorn
for holding me to task
from the day I was born
6-I’ll be free to live my life
loving all who follow me
hating all who criticize
and all who came before me
7-I’ll marry whom I choose
and love all whom I will
I’ll command an army of flesh
to march just for the thrill
8-I’ll tear down all the walls
and open all the cages
liars, thieves, and friends in need
loyal to freedoms’ wages
9-the lie will be the truth
the truth will be for sale
I’ll revel in inequity
and deny the fires of hell
10-and all will serve my pleasure
and covet what they see
I’ll bear witness to every lust
and keep them enthralled to me
if we make the rules
and we’re in control
if all we can lose
is an empty soul….....

Breaking barriers
Misunderstanding
Can not impede
Movement
Through the cycles
What spills out
Improvement
Moving past
Being stuck
Second to last
Ascension
Into higher realms
Worthiness
Fills the void that
Emptiness
Once occupied
Respecting and
Understanding our
Uniqueness
That orders
The Universe
