Hate your God

Its a murky evening here,everything is in ashes
The birds are silent,the water is dumb
The soil is barren,the crops are cropsless.

The sky is dark,the stars are wide a far
The pool is sinking,the thirsty town is drowning
The people are rustic,greedy and illiterate.


The people are rustic,greedy and illiterate
They don't understand poetry,nor the beauty
They don't know the tranquility.

God is dead-muttered Nietzshe
God is unreal-said Marx
God is imagery-noted Charvaka philosophy

But I urge throw off your God
Hate it
And live reasonably.

wait for sleep

Standing by the window,
Eyes upon the moon.
Hoping that the memory
Will leave her spirit soon

She shuts the doors and lights
And lays her body on the bed.
The images and words are running deep.

She has too much pride to
Pull the sheets over her head.
So quietly she lays and waits for sleep.

She stares at the ceiling
And tries not to think;
She pictures the chain
She's been trying to link....
Again.

But the feeling is gone.

And water can't cover the memory.
And ashes can't answer her pain.
God, give me the power to take
Breath from a breeze,
And life from this cold metal frame.

In with the ashes,
And up with the smoke from the fire
With wings up in heaven;

Or here, lying in bed.
Palm of her hand to her head.
Now, and forever curled.
In my heart and the heart of the world.

About this poem:
Many women in this world have suffered injustices in relationships. I wrote this because I understand this, I've experienced that pain myself. I'm just trying to empathize with those who have been hurt. I was feeling quite reflective when I wrote this.

Death: A portrait

The lone, the cold
weary, dreary
unsettled in their new home
their sojourn a mystery
uncertainty roams
Prowling shapes envelop the door
as Pluto unleashes his damned hoardes
eternity sealed inside their mind
how hurriedly they know not
the lies spoonfed long since
cannot help them here.
Only their fear
resides and thrives
feasting on their futile fate
thrashing about in the heart's cage.
Yet, feeling nothing, not numb
pain vociferous, yet dumb
How canst they continue on?
The toil etched into their eyes
baggage hanging off the brow
Channels well dug in thy alabaster dome
as they arrive where they shall call home.
Abandon all hope
if it not abandoned thee;
embrace only your misery
for nothing before you you shall see
yet thine eyes will wild dance
with fanciful horrors
terrors once unbeknown
residing
where they call home.

Lovers Touch

Nights entwined with a lovers touch
softly caressing the yearning desire
moans that escape thy passions throe.

Eyes that behold the glistening sweat
slide into the warmth of the love
be that may come to a joining.

Linger on the moment, behold
the night has lightened to dusky dawn
as departing lovers touch one last time.

Weebles Wobble

Knocked around by life since you were born
Battered, beaten, bloodied and torn
Every twist of the road another heart ache
This thing called life ain’t no slice of cake
Just taking the licks as they come around
Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down
 
Round two and hear the bell ring
What is the worse that they can bring
Come up swinging asking for more
Go the distance til you get to the exit door
Bounce off the mat with a thumping sound
Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down
 
Third time they say is the charm
Giving hope a chance what’s the harm
Living with your heart wide open
The best laid plans of mice and men
This girl is stepping out on the town
Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down
 
The last hurrah; strike up the band
Love letters written in the sand
Time may wash away unsightly mars
Waves of God’s love removes the scars
Watching the circle of life go round
Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down

This side of me

Seeking fun and adventure at every turn
Quick to laugh and the champ of one-liners
Easy-going, one day at a time
I am free to show
This side of me

Enthralled by the sunset on the water
Listening to the sounds of silence
Touched by the beauty that surrounds
I will gladly show
This side of me

Constantly striving to fill the need to know
Searching and thirsting for knowledge
A deep need to understand my world
I can show to you
This side of me

Faith that has found its resting place
Firmly placed in the hands of God
Sustaining me through tempest seas
I hopefully can show
This side of me

Gentle mother rocking her child
Crooning softly to her dear little one
Teaching, training, raising to maturity
Showing a part of
This side of me

Strong-headed, strong-willed woman
Tough as stone, stand my ground
No compromise of my values
Can I show you
This side of me

Buried deep the hidden dreams
The aching heart and arms
That long to hold a matching soul
I do not dare show
This side of me

Pain and sorrow have left their marks
Tears have etched ravines across my heart
Battle scars mar my life
No one can know
This side of me

Focus

Bringing into sharp clarity a single image
While all else fades and blurs
The vision of you sears my mind
Causing all other pictures to fade and crumble
I see you everywhere I look
I hear your voice in every conversation

Longing for the touch of you
To feel you pressed against me
Your lips brushing mine
The sensation of your breath on my cheek
Every fibre of my being coming into clarity
Focused on the image of you and me

She listens

She stands and listens to the wind
sing a tune across time and space
the gentle throb of a lonely ache
she listens to his beating heart

She stands and sings to the wind
a quiet song about space and time
the ebb and flow of a restless soul
she speaks to his anxious mind

love is...(2)

Love is the most wonderful symphony which the destiny make it and the feelings play it and the lovers dance with it ,the love can make the human is a poet,we do not feel the strong of love and the severe of it until the time of farewell coming,the most beauty moments in love is when u wait and the language which the lovers clevers with it, is the eyes language,the screams of the lovers are whispers and their tears is sighs ,the talking of lovers is speak between 2 hearts .
In religation,love is the home which the 2 souls settle in it .
In geography ,love is found in the soul and his capital is the heart .
In history , love is the most firmly time and the most old time .
In chemistry , love is a timer bomb the destiny fix it inside the human and this bomb not have an exact time or date to blow up .
In physics , love is a magnetic case which make attraction between 2 souls and make them live in one body .
In philiosiphy , the love is the holy of souls and the exchange of loyalty between 2 souls and love can make the 2 souls settle in the temple of love for ever .
Love is as war ,it is very easy to start it ,but after that it is very hard to stop it .
Love is the only game which share by 2 persons and they win toghter or lost together .
Maybe love born with one word but it can not end with one word,love do not kill the lovers but it make them live the suspension between the case of life and death .
And who love in true way , will be love for ever
regards,
khaled

After The Fall

Anticipation of the consequences is killing our soul
Forfeiture of all we believe in will become our goal
Truth, Honor, Integrity and Justice are nil upon the table
Ever changing our destiny by leaving the scars of the label
Reaching nothing more than a false destination.

Thinking with closed minds and preconceived paradigms
Hinders our recovery from pestilence and hate crimes
Exchanging our free essence for one that is continually bound.

Fastened to the unrealistic knowledge that all will be forgiven
After the fall of the human race; we learn that absolution
Leads not to freedom from paying the reaper in full sum
Love is not for sale, nor may it be unraveled or undone.
