About this poem:
Hokey, but fun, and true.love me now
I have loved you for so long
And the more I love you
The more you withdraw from me
How can I make you know
That what I feel is real
You will never find
Anyone to love you the way I do
Like I do with all my heart
Why can't you see me
And understand my love
That I feel for you
Everyday I think about
Ways to make you know
That our love was meant to be
Don't throw away our love
love me now.
And the more I love you
The more you withdraw from me
How can I make you know
That what I feel is real
You will never find
Anyone to love you the way I do
Like I do with all my heart
Why can't you see me
And understand my love
That I feel for you
Everyday I think about
Ways to make you know
That our love was meant to be
Don't throw away our love
love me now.

About this poem:
I wrote this poem.About losing love
Sometimes we are remove from someone life,because god has someone better for you.
Forest Rain.
Forest rain
So appeasing,
Rushing torrent
Hear it breathing,
Sigh release
Softly speaking,
Source of solace
Touching souls
Those who listen.
See it splash
Leaf to leaf,
Watch it streaming
Down the timbers,
In mossy bark cracks
Quietly seeping,
In forest floor
Disappearing,
Secret streams
Search for rivers,
Sweetened waters
Slipping onwards
To the sea.
So appeasing,

In mossy bark cracks
Quietly seeping,
In forest floor
Disappearing,
Secret streams
Search for rivers,
Sweetened waters
Slipping onwards
To the sea.

About this poem:
I would hope that the reader would expreience something sensuous and spiritual. The normal buzz of insects and birdsong fall quiet during a good refreshing down pour from the heavens, leaving only the unignorable patter of rain on the canopy and the breath of the wind that follows. To be alone in a great forest and experience this, is a privilage. If you listen, you will hear it speak! Maybe you can hear it now?Remain Silent
Even if seldom see each other,
My feelings for you grow's more stronger
I'm dying to tell but i could'nt i just have to
Remain silent
Its really painful to love a person
when can't give love in return
but i will not repent i just have to
remain silent
its better to love in a dream
nothings painful there is seems
dreams all are possible and imminent
but i just have to remain silent
oh! yes... i just have to remain silent
i cant have you oh i can't
i want to say "i love you friend"
but i just have to remain silent.
My feelings for you grow's more stronger
I'm dying to tell but i could'nt i just have to
Remain silent
Its really painful to love a person
when can't give love in return
but i will not repent i just have to

its better to love in a dream

dreams all are possible and imminent
but i just have to remain silent
oh! yes... i just have to remain silent
i cant have you oh i can't
i want to say "i love you friend"
but i just have to remain silent.

About this poem:
its a all about the feelings of the girl that she choose to keep it herself.i really like this poem coz its really hard to keep ur feeling towards the guy that u love. specially if the guy that u love is taken already.
I AM
In an instant
The world turns on a dime
Back where it started
Staring, thru time
How far i have come
and yet
I remain true
It doesnt matter
What others may think
My strength wells from within
Strong will
Strong spirit
I am
The world turns on a dime
Back where it started
Staring, thru time
How far i have come
and yet
I remain true
It doesnt matter
What others may think
My strength wells from within
Strong will
Strong spirit
I am

About this poem:
A friends suicide, stirring up memories of others who took the same path and how i relate that to the path i choose for myself
Stop!
As long as I live
Through all that I give
I will never understand
The hatred that abides
In mankind that hides
And makes the eyes blind
It seems so hidden
With no real agenda
Disorganized and fleeting
It lacks a civil greeting
And yet
Its hard to forget
That the biggest discourse
Are people on this earth
Quite a formidable resource
How then do people give birth
To hatred and strife
In this precious, short life
Shouldn’t we be inclined
To help each other out
Of that there is no doubt
Rather than being confined
No matter where we live
Just reach out and give
Truly be alive
And not to deprive
The love that connects us
To our human kind and forgive
Our beating hearts connect to all
Love and respect is our call
Arms wrapped in colors
Helping each other
Eyes of many colors
See just the same
It doesn’t matter
Our hearts still shatter
Black, white, yellow, red,
If there were purple and green
I fear the abuse would still be there
So utterly, completely absolutely obscene
As we all inhale and breathe the same air!
So, Stop
Don’t say another word
Think before hatred spews from your mouth
Toward strangers you meet in your life
Uttering innuendos that cut like a knife
I’m talking about real love that’s what it’s about
Hold your tongue, don’t accuse, bruise and abuse
Another who is just like you, yes just the same
Only a different color, culture, race and name
People succumb
March to a new drum
Deflect, connect and disinfect
Redirect your faulty interconnect
A great cosmic master plan is in place
Written to set us free and is for every race
Three powerful words were penned
Helping us to defend, ascend and extend
LOVE, HONOR and RESPECT
To everyone we meet and to comprehend
These powerful words meant to protect
So, what went wrong with the world
With this blatant hatred and strife
That became a great strain on life
Love should run through our veins
Mitigating all the stains
Beating in our hearts
Giving life
That binds
Colorblind
Together
All mankind
Under a peace shelter
Making our lives better
Through tears and trials
Separated by many miles
I still look for the smiles
Those that know truth
Fortunate and knowing ones
Hear the sounds of the drums
The beat that keeps united love alive
Utterances of prayers that peace survives
Shielding us from others neglect
Those three words so perfect
And to each other we connect
Helping us to protect
Through all the profanity
Our human dignity
Through all that I give
I will never understand
The hatred that abides
In mankind that hides
And makes the eyes blind
It seems so hidden
With no real agenda
Disorganized and fleeting
It lacks a civil greeting
And yet
Its hard to forget
That the biggest discourse
Are people on this earth
Quite a formidable resource

About this poem:
I overheard a horrible conversation today, which brought tears to my eyes and a little scene in the store. I had to pen my anger at how hurtful and uncaring people can be toward other human beings because they are "different"...it makes my blood boil and my heart ache!unnamed
Run the silent path to nowhere,
Everything is all.
You could have a pleasant life,
If summer had no fall.
Treat yourself so gently,
Though the task is often hard.
A man is not a god it seems;
Who holds the final card.
Close your eyes and feel the darkness
Speaking, hear the sound.
We only catch a glimpse
Of all the life that is around.
The man is not alive who knows
The value of his soul.
And when our lives are pulled away,
There's more to fill the hole....
I wonder what you'd think;
If all the changes didn't come?
And growing old was only
Going back to where you're from?
Far beyond all senseless thought
There lies a core of gold.
Where essence of a newborn child
Is waiting in the old.
The master plan is well perceived,
Its there for all to see.
And each day that we spend in thought
Is living harmony.
Reach into the depths of being
Pass beyond the years
Time is lost in stillness
Where there are no hopes and fears.
Linger in the void
Just like a beacon in the night.
Purity will fill your soul
With ever present light....
For everything you see...
Is waiting patiently within.
And growing old is only
Going back to where you've been.
Everything is all.
You could have a pleasant life,
If summer had no fall.
Treat yourself so gently,
Though the task is often hard.
A man is not a god it seems;
Who holds the final card.
Close your eyes and feel the darkness
Speaking, hear the sound.
We only catch a glimpse
Of all the life that is around.
The man is not alive who knows
The value of his soul.
And when our lives are pulled away,
There's more to fill the hole....
I wonder what you'd think;
If all the changes didn't come?
And growing old was only
Going back to where you're from?
Far beyond all senseless thought
There lies a core of gold.
Where essence of a newborn child
Is waiting in the old.
The master plan is well perceived,
Its there for all to see.
And each day that we spend in thought
Is living harmony.
Reach into the depths of being
Pass beyond the years
Time is lost in stillness
Where there are no hopes and fears.
Linger in the void
Just like a beacon in the night.
Purity will fill your soul
With ever present light....
For everything you see...
Is waiting patiently within.
And growing old is only
Going back to where you've been.

Post Comment...LiFE so importAnt....
Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay...
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the lord
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,

For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the lord

About this poem:
what life is...hope u will like it...Tender White Clouds
Tender white clouds
suspended in blue jewelled sky
hovering overhead
a protective canopy
holding rain
let not a drop fall
to spoil my picnic
long, lush green grass
about bare feet
swaying red poppies
dancing with butterflies
nature's carpet unfurls
for miles around
no heavy breath of traffic
no shrieks or screams
just the whisper of wisdom
from tender white clouds
suspended in blue jewelled sky
hovering overhead
a protective canopy
holding rain
let not a drop fall
to spoil my picnic
long, lush green grass
about bare feet
swaying red poppies
dancing with butterflies
nature's carpet unfurls
for miles around
no heavy breath of traffic
no shrieks or screams
just the whisper of wisdom
from tender white clouds
