Poem

Just Dirt

It was the way he moved on it

The struggles he did bear

The dirt that covered his tears

Marking a path that many may had trod

But never one as innocent as he

He bore more than our part

With great pain he fell to the dirt below

He used all his might to carry on

Working through the pain heading for that rugged tree

It was just dirt that cushioned his steps

But it was his love that saved us.

Poem

No Other Way

Hers was always lacking

She expected so much

Felt so deeply

She never knew the right way to smile

It was growing up that taught her

But loss that made her

She was strong but in efforts, most unspoken

Most of the time

The cards had been laid out before her

They were already dealt before she made her request

“Spirit”, that was for those who longed to live after death

She wanted to live in life.

Always trying so hard

Never fully getting anything

Hers was tears of sorrow

For that kind of love,

That had never noticed her.

Continuous defeat

Continuous lacking

Her best bet was to let things happen naturally

In their own way

But that never worked either,

Usually things and people went away

Oh, if life were to give her some comfort

Naturally was not her forte

Forcefully was.

Maybe that was her main issue

Maybe her demise.

She knew no other way.

Poem

Lost Love

Whispers of a lost love

Remnants of a time past

Once was is now a time gone

One left the other was left to roam

People came and then they went

If only they had said what they meant

It just was and still is

Ever there, yet still missed.

Poem

Flowers

Flowing effortless

Springing to attention

Flying over and under

Elegant and so purposeful

Necessary and prominent

Messengers of hope

Senders of joy

Flowers are the best

One look and I know I am blessed.

Poem

Sharon

It is a pain, so much like the others

Deep and forthcoming most of my life

Something that is so much a part of me,

That I can feel it breath

So much a part that without it I would cease to exist

It was with me that day back in 1970

It has followed me like a lost puppy

Clings to me like a second skin

Tears my heart from within

I can no longer leave it in the hole

Where it was formed

Where it showed itself to me

I must let myself walk with it, eat with it,

Sleep with it, dream with it,

And most definitely, rise with it

If I were to name it,

It would be Sharon,

The name I was born with

It would be the darkest

Yet most enlightening piece ,of the now me

Together we will go though the rest of this life

Forever tormenting one another,

Yet gliding along with a purpose

Each, their own

Onward but yet still somehow backwards

Forever.

Poem(Quirky)

Night

Today is an ordinary day

But things could vastly go astray

But if I could, oh, if I may

I would like some more coffee my way.

I know it is getting late,

But don’t you worry; I won’t hesitate,

To get the sleep I know I should take

When nighttime dreams emulate our wake.

Ah, sounds great!

Torment(poem)

Oh why, must my soul torture me

Where will it end?

I have paid so many debts for things done wrong.

So many trials and still I carry on.

I wonder will you still be there?

When things I keep buried, come up for air.

To think I am less of a righteous human

Sets my soul to burn

Constantly reminding me of the wrong things I have done.

I have asked for a lot of pardons, most of my life.

I never questioned the turn of forgiveness.

I wanted to know that I am worth forgiving

That I can sit where others do

And to know there still is some good

In me

Often times I feel un-worthy of love

Many times I struggle with it, I know, absurd.

When time comes for my life to be over

I want to walk those streets of gold

I just want my feet on the holy land

I want to see glory and feel that power.

Oh, am I too far gone?

Unforgiveable?

Please let my soul find peace!

Wrestling daily with my self

Has worn a hole in my heart.

Restless and still longing

Ultimate grief is mine.

I can not make anyone understand

It is not them, but me that I cannot stand next to

It is me that I cannot love

It is most definitely I, that I cannot trust.

If only…

Can a person find everlasting peace?

The cure for all that ails their heart.

I hope so, with barely enough hope to last

I wish for that cure, those cures

The ones that will last.

Poem

Shadow(s), by MwsR

In the dark lurks a shadow

It is not cordial to say the least.

It will rob you of your peace and mind

And slowly on them it will feast.

Light does not come close to touching it

It will sneak and hide away,

It always returns,

Especially at the end of the day.

No circumstance will help you

No help you will find

When in the shadows it waits

One day or another time.

You need to come to terms with it

Deal with it in your own way

Don’t try to ignore it

It will never go away.

WE all have those shadows

In real life that manifest

If left undealt with they will grow

Slowly your hope they will ingest.
