I'd Only Just Surrendered

You know.
How you drop by,
throwing smiles.
A tickle of yearn.
With passion to burn.

Sometimes.
When you're gone,
out of my mind,
I'd surrender to forgetting and,
the memories stop fretting.

Every time.
Most not expected,
when we're disconnected,
you see what you're missing
with dreams that are blissing.

Repeatedly.
And I'd only just surrendered
to things I'd remembered.
Those times you arise,
then wave your goodbyes.

Only to return,
eternally.

About this poem:
This is about the reality that people never really leave you. They always return, either in mind or the master illusion.

Baby ... Move

You can hang 'round worrying
in that closet of doom.
Or you can stick your foot out
get a feel for your room.
See the sun through the window
in casting light across gloom.

Baby ... move.

You can be happy and live life
in all of your days.
Or you can hang onto your trials
And those immovable ways.
But you know the sun shines brightest
on those who step into it's rays.

Baby ... move.

Don't get emotional,
You'll cry an ocean you'll,
Be in love you'll see.

Don't get too personal,
Superficial person you'll,
Fall into love that you'll be.

Don't get emotional,
A sail on the ocean you'll,
Empty into the sea.

Baby ... move.

Love Hearted Friends

I was just standing,
Outside your door,
Wondering if this new love
would end a war.

My mind floats
Long into yesterdays
Like the man in a love song
I want you.

Even with the hurts
That memory knows
Love heals a wound
As a fond heart grows.

Thought I'd better knock,
Before the feeling goes
-Love hearted friends-
And self hearted foes.

Nuance

The winds are just excuses
Worn and broken fuses
Tearing eyes
Without surprise
And none of them have uses.

The snows are just disguises,
Covering growth that man despises.
Blowing skies
To shelter lies
And hide another crisis.

The suns are happy cheery notes
Weather on which we'd cast out votes
Gloom, it dies
With human sighs,
Plastic castles enclosed by motes.

The rains are just relief
The shedding of our grief
Failure tries
A human cries
When verity shows disbelief.

The hails are just a screaming
The rain and snow are teaming
A god he sees
A wise man agrees
Most things are only seeming.
