Give me reason Spare me treason, Separate my want- A desolate season From lost to found, I fear the meaning Never around For all this bleeding,

Your warmth on my lips, Trickling down my throat, Spreading over my abdomen, Rushing to my fingertips, Putting fire to my core. Thank you, coffee, Enchanted with sugar, Seduced with cream, Stirred to perfection,

The little moments that i spend with you, make my life beautiful, day by day... silently in my heart, i wanna thank god, for bringing such a wonderful person my way!! - Samantha These poem was to my wonderful husband <3

My love is like an ocean it goes down so deep My love is like a rose whose beauty you want to keep. My love is like a river that will never end. My love is like a dove with a beautiful message to send. Samantha.R

Inside of us lay our souls, There they rest in the cavity of our hearts. From child to adult our soul grows based on the actions of our hearts and minds. Our mind is a map of our history to what we have placed in the cavity of our hearts, and our souls feed on what's inside. Looking on the past...

If there is one thing I feel that I am good at writing it is haiku poems. These are a few I have written in the past year. Enjoy! Only darkness will Know the truth in the silence Of a broken heart This is a modification of a poem I submitted about two years ago. I had the syllables...

Judgment is passed by those who fear, Acceptance is given by those who love. Hatred for the colored, the feminine, the queer Is battled by warriors of the dove. Rise against the high tide of hatred, In favor of a kinship born of tolerance. To cure a nation, a world, a species blighted By a...

Hummingbird heart beating so fast Tasting the fear, smelling the hate Watch, little bird, for the predator Don't get trapped in the illusion Fly fast, my dear, do not look back Nothing is back there but despair Wings scorched and tainted

My mind is so numb, I crave to busy it with words Cleverly crafted.

Your world will spin With endless possibilities Are you against the flow Or do you ride it with ease? What will you do Who will you be? Will you conquer the mountain?

There he stood Six feet nothing Still and quiet Not starting or stopping Watching closely From a distance Analyzing, waiting

She is the silhouette of Artemis With eyes as bright as stars, A shining example of young promise Espied with kindness from afar A fold of her nocturne hair Reveals the thought-strings of dreams, With but a single porcelain glare She tears ambiguity by the seams

Hallelujah is the word I sing today ‘Cause heavenly grace must be spread away My spirits will rise and be exalted For good actions should not be halted I feel in peace and I feel joy Keeping in mind this is no decoy And when the rough times arrive Against myself I’ll have to strive

I write poems quite often so, I decided I'd start a thread to share some of them with you guys. SO... here we go. This poem is one I wrote after a series of events beyond my control that caused me and my ex to split up... "Dereliction of the tormented" A man imprisoned in an asylum of...

Here we are two strangers Meeting for the hundredth time Staring at each other Through thick layers of grime You remind me of a girl I knew so long ago Who vanished with the wind To travel where it blows

My life isn't anything interesting. I watch birds fly with freedom The foxes steal fruit with cunning belief... I want to fly with proud wings like the black swallowtail butterfly Don't say it's lame, I want that kind of life... I want to become a black swallowtail butterfly and be loved...

Let go of the sanguine feeling Into the winds so lost, Eternity revealing The ends and their costs Certainly perceiving With pensive senses arrayed, Songless and careening Begging the forces be swayed

Cut off from reality. Tangled in ropes. Don’t want to break free. Giving up all hopes. The moon Swallows the sun My heart so gloom Where is the fun?

Just as a reminder: Line 1 is 5 syllables Line 2 is 7 syllables Line 3 is 5 syllables This one is about a character in Naruto. Can anyone guess who I'm talking about? Sand-skinned boy, we fear He can kill us with one glance We won't stand a chance.

i just get reminded that i didn't post alove poem here on v-day.. i am doing it now... Love me, i beg thee.. i will love you more, you'll see more than before, if you ask me i will love thee more than i love me... please understand

Well here is a quick Ryhme I made in my English class thought it turned out pretty good. I know it's not perfect but I thought I'd post it to see what everyone thinks. P.S. sorry if there is a missing "k" somewhere my keyboard got sticky over the summer :p Along the road a lost reading...

I hate you, my beloved. For the fact that i'm in chains because of you, That I have no more free will. That I'm in constant pain when I'm away from you, That I've no life without you. And that you'd never let me go, But most of all, I hate you because I'd die for you.

Fighting, scratching, teeth bared, body bloodied. We are the warriors, the soldiers of life. Our weapons are rusty, and our clothes soiled. We will never know peace, only strife. The only goal is to survive and pass on our legacy: To have lived in world which treated us so cruelly.

Another day at work Casts me now to shore You are waiting for me A horseshoe on the door But it seems to nail is weak It twists to face the floor Water breaks My knees begin to weaken Your moan is burning soft

Intro: Hey my friends. After being showed to me what Haiku is and some little search afterwards I’ll try that form of Japanese poetry for the first time. Haiku combines “three different lines in a noticeable grammatical break”. That break, which is called kireji in romanji, “is often replaced...

My heart for long cries For my son’s death in my heart grew His emotions fumbling to a stew Being cooked as by a navy crew Making me grow has from new My heart for long cries Between fear and lies My worries trying not to rise But it’s impossible: my heart dies!

I left your side. When it all went down. Baby, I know you cried. I had to leave this town. When our bodies where close. I couldn't hold you, I couldn't touch. As you threw of your clothes. Time stopped, and it became to much.

While the moon glows with her shy emollience I bask in the rays which wish to reach me, Their numina gives off the sense of clairvoyance As I sit beneath this mostly metaphorical tree Another few moments could reveal the harbinger Even when the inevitable is the impossible, I await the...

Empty lighter. Empty bottles. Used to be a fighter. Visiting brothels. She ran her hands through my hair. Caressing my chest. She was the only one to care. Floating happily in her breast.

So that it makes a little more sense, I'll tell you that this one was inspired by a picture of two Kayan women with neck rings, one older and one a bit younger, smiling happily, and the older one was laying on the younger one's shoulder. Years ago, when I was young She would help to ease the...
