Poem

Oblivious, by MwsR

Once upon a day

My heart began to sway.

I couldn’t tell whether to try

Or give in to an obvious lie.

I wished upon a moonlight sky

Without any particular notion as to why.

Inside I started to feel myself unravel

It was like a kid skinning their knee on some gravel,

Oblivious to the blood that starts to show

But knowing that it hurt a slight bit though.

Content though to ignore it all for the play,

We adults also do things this way.

Not noticing or taking heed to the scars and marks

We keep getting hurt the same each time we embark.

Till one day we fall down and something clicks

Maybe it is the words, or maybe the licks.

We finish our story in a twist

Like suicide can result from cutting your wrists.

Permanent and final it will be

When it’s over or you mend

There will be an end.

Poem

Drain by MwsR

There is a hole

Where all the spillage goes.

Where it all flows down

The crap that comes from frowns.

It’s not clear where it all goes

But away from me is all I know.

No stopper can keep it all in one place

Just like emotions can change a person’s face.

Along the way down things start to break apart

Changing forever, the compound, the heart,

Never to return, any more pain

Like a person’s internal drain.

Poem

Dreams, by MwsR

If you’ve ever awoken with a dream on your mind

Thinking that your real-world ain’t fine

Then you can understand a little of mine.

If the thought of something keeps foremost in your thoughts and dreams

Then it’s time to re-evaluate things.

If you do you’ll see what it brings.

Time is not an indicator of a change

Its how you use your time, the little that remains.

That way in the end nothing leaves a permanent stain.

Dreams can be indicators maybe of problems in your real life

They can help to open your eyes.

Maybe for you it’s as simple as using a knife.

Others though don’t look at it all that wise

They think dreams are lies.

They fail to see between the lines.

I believe sometimes God gives us dreams

That helps us to look in different ways at things

Sort of, like him carrying us on his wings.

Poem

Each Day, By MwsR

Daybreak brings newness

Sunshine is divine

Things continue to grow

Each moment in time

Progress is for the opportunist

Succession is for the achiever

Life continues without pause

Each Christmas brings Santa Clause

Thoughts keep us thinking

Food keeps us strong

Water is for all the living

Time to pray is needed for us all.

Grey hues of shadows upon the ground

Remembering things sometimes can get us down

All this surrounds us

All of this is a day, in not any one certain way.

Poem

Truth by MwsR

If I looked better than I do now

The world would still let me drown.

If I made lots of friends not foes

The True friends would be all I know.

If I lived in a nice place

It couldn’t change what’s not erased.

If time stayed still for me

The heartache would still be.

If my waist was fit and trim

I’d still see through this person created film.

It does matter what we think is enough

It’s not what the world thinks and all their stuff.

To be true to who you are

Will eventually recover every scar.

Let yourself be happy

It’s a poem about realism and isn’t happy.

Easy by MwsR

It’d be easier without feelings

At least then no worries

Nothing to try and attempt to control

Everything would be colder than cold

Easy to travel this world all alone

Than to have loved much like you are prone

Everything changes

There is no room for anyone who simply manages

Easy to walk in the other direction

When nothing is expected, no need for perfection

Trials would all be null and void

Those who were victims, would be no more

Easy to tell a lie than pretend you are alright

Second guesses, those keep us up at night

Different people with no agendas

Different objectives can leave you feeling offended

Easy not to show your sensitive side

But sometimes, harder to hide

Human interaction will confuse things

No sense in worrying what tomorrow can bring

Easy to forget the hardships and stay in denial

If you want to live un-encumbered for a while

Easy to just feel and see reality

When your talking about spirituality

Everyone chooses according to their own preferences

Everyone makes efforts or they don’t.

Easy is something everyone wants.

Poem

Why…by MwsR

It can hurt,

It’s unbearable for sure

The heartbreak one individual has to endure.

Sudden it can come

The very thing we find ourselves running to escape

That part of life becomes our fate.

Turning a corner

In search of relief for just a while or two

If you don’t find it soon it will tear you into.

Putting faith in things that don’t matter

Things that are useless and void

Instead of being smart and unmoved, we let ourselves stay annoyed.

Why must we let our own selves down

When we don’t need to, ever.

We can’t live like this forever.

Poem

Peace.✌✌by MwsR

When you’ve done the best you can

And never shamed another man

Peace is yours.

When you’ve given to those in need

And in love, made them believe

Peace will be yours.

When in the wrong you’ve apologized

And are able to learn from others being agonized

Peace shall be yours.

When at your knees you humbly fall

And risking ridicule for it all

Peace should be yours.

When others leave you

And yet you stay true

Peace is inside of you.

Peace there is nothing more needed in our lives.
