Not Dreaming

Finally wrote a new piece of poetry tonight. Writers block lifted. Maybe I'm not dreaming. Maybe this isn't our first time around, You look so familiar darling. I think we've met before on these very grounds. Perhaps within different souls, As we brushed fingertips by chance. Your eyes tell a thousand sonnets, And I'm losing my footing in your glance.

What’s on my mind

In the depth of night, so stark and cold, I feel my spirit to the underworld fold. All is cloaked in a crimson shade, Bare are the trees, their branches decayed. In the realm of dawn where colors play, To the world, I voice my desire to sway. Not seeking death, but life’s flame is low, Passion's spark, I no longer know. Once to a friend, my feelings I did confide, He cast me out, “you’re a waste”, he implied. In the underworld, I belong, it seems clear, No emotional chaos, just stillness near.

Boo👻

Once upon a time, in a digital scene, Men and women questing, what love really mean. First chapter unfolds, on a superficial floor, Profile pics shining, but who's keeping score? Move to chapter two, scarcity's the tale, "No good men left," got 'em setting sail. Cruising through swipes, it's a competitive zone, Good men gone? Nah, they just overthrown. Third chapter's a twist, allies in a fight, Defending harsh words, but what's wrong or right? Scroll through the drama, everyone's a critic, Echo chamber building, it's so analytic. Chapter four's deep, it's a cognitive mess, Relative values and the stress to impress. Algorithms preachin', dependency teachin', Caught in a web, and there's no overreachin'. Skip to the fifth, where reason's erased, Conflict's the currency, sincerity misplaced. Frustration peaks, but we can't turn the page, Clickbait reigns in this digital age. Sixth chapter's dark, it's a trap we're in, Illusions of choice, but can we ever win? Algorithm's the lock, and they're holding the key, We think it's lesser evil, but are we ever free? Last chapter's here, it's an ethical spin, Digital chaos, but can true love win? Pixels, code, tangled in a web, Cycle unbroken, 'til the last word's said. Last chapter's real, it's the essence distilled, Caught in a cycle, but is destiny willed? Questions unanswered, can love pierce the veil, Or are we just actors, in a digital tale? Essentials recapped, it's a paradox play, Algorithms dictatin' the roles we portray. Conflict the norm, sincerity lost, Is this the future, and what is the cost? Leavin' you ponderin', a riddle, a clue, Can we break the cycle, or is this our due? We're all in the maze, it's a shared ordeal, Is there a solution, or is this just surreal? Narrative's closed, but the questions persist, In a world like this, can true love exist? It's a lingering doubt, like a ghost in the room, Will we find the answer, or forever assume?

Ode to the One-time Girlfriend

One-time Girlfriend, you inspire me to write. How I love the way you overreact, Invading my mind day and through the night, Always dreaming about the splendid pact. See the slowing of the old, I think she’s angry at the Loquacious Diebold. She finds it hard to see the heels, Overshadowed by the beautiful circuit court of appeals. Let me compare you to a square ember? You are more sumptuous and spectacular True winds shake the leafage of September, And autumn time has the vernacular. How do I love you? Let me count the ways. I love your marvelous Harsh mood and heels. Wanting your ponytail hair fills my days. My love for you is the straight megadeals. Now I must away with a honest heart, Remember my tall words whilst we’re apart. Who is that shocking near the hoax? I think she’d like to eat the spokes. She is but a delightful girl, Admired as she sits upon a pearl. Her charm eyes are just a sky, It needs no medium, it runs on nigh. She’s not alone she brings a lonely, A pet cat, and lots of only. The cat likes to chase a dark, Especially one that’s in the question mark. The old shudders at the sigh moon I want to leave but she wants the kite balloon. Her day and night of stubborn sulk Every time I got splintered heart bulk. It’s time to say adieu loudly That’s not the matter considered seriously. How shall I leave the kinship As can’t see discipleship in the relationship

Love?

My Love for you, which feels like an affection, ❤️ but you think of It as an obsession. 🖤 I thought of you as a royal princess, 👑 But to you, I was just a poor peasant. 🧎 My feelings for you can fill up an entire ocean, ⛵ Thinking of you, I might lose control of my emotions. 💕 chasing after you in these heavy swifts 🌊 While thinking of all the love that I give.🌹

Hate is not the answer

Concrete in schools collapsing on your children's heads, Grenfell, COVID, The demolition of the NHS, Just a reminder in case you've forgotten, This government is inherently rotten. Stop the boats is their battle cry, We are out of the EU now but why? What has an asylum seeker done so wrong? Apart from their home now being gone? They try to divide with anything they can, Now toilets are part of the plan, Is that something that will win your vote? Judging someone for the gender they denote? The real problems we face aren't entrenched in hate, Simple things like interest and mortgage rates, The most important thing though to me, Is the destruction of the malevolent Tory party.

Facing Reality

That which stands before me, is real. Those to which my back is turned, exist not in this plane Regret will drive a sole to make undignified apppeals. Better to exist in the moment, the past will not be yours again.

The Echo of Her Presence: A Poem of Absence

She came for a moment, a bright spark so true, Then she left, like the last words of a poem, too few. Some connections, some memories, the tale of a friend, No waiting, no hope, just an odd story's end.

In love

In love Beautiful and painful moments will happen, Do not afraid to fall inlove. In reality Beautiful and painful dreams will come, Do not afraid to break them. In life Beautiful and painful happiness will arise Do not afraid to bear them. In heart Beautiful and painful feelings will beat Do not afraid to follow them. In Soul Beautiful and painful emotions will melt Do not afraid to freeze them.

Fair apprehension

How many candles are lit in the darkness Take away my sanity, take away all the porticoes today. Today, I do not know, there is no need for earthen lamps to let it dust. Extinguish, the lamp of the candle, and open all the doors. Maintain it, don't raise the tone today On broken harp strings. Silently strut regardless At your door. Listen to all the skies today All light and air Music belongs to you I raised my voice. Demolish the candle and Open all doors. How many forms, how many ornaments in the heart and life?

For Better or Without

I hope I wonder I laugh I doubt I fall I panic I cannot shout I run I hide I cry Too loud Then I accept I'll go without I mourn But hide Behind a mask I look too good To be so sad Don't ask Don't wonder I will not say That's all there is On this fine day

Numb

In a place untouched by trembling hearts, Where emotions retreat and gently depart, There lies a land, serene and still, Where feelings fade, and turmoil's chill. In this realm devoid of restless seas, Where tranquility reigns, and worries ease, A spirit wanders, untethered and light, Basking in a realm of tranquil night. Unburdened, it roams, free from the binds, Shedding the weight of tumultuous minds, No laughter's echo or tears that flow, Just an endless expanse, serenely aglow. No pain to pierce, no sorrows to bear, No joy to embrace, no passions to dare, Emotion's grasp fades, a distant haze, Leaving a void in its silent embrace. Yet, though stripped bare, unfettered, and free, A longing whispers, a faint melody, For in freedom's embrace, a seed is sown, To feel and connect, a purpose of its own. For emotions, though tempestuous at times, Are the colors that paint our woven rhymes, The deepest depths, the highest highs, Moments that make us truly realize. So bask in that freedom, but remember, dear, Emotions, though fragile, hold what we hold dear, For it's through their prism, life gains its hue, The sweet and the bitter, both old and new. So cherish the tears, and cherish the bliss, The elation, the anger, the moments amiss, Embrace the full spectrum, for it makes us real, A journey of emotions, the soul's ideal.

Autumnal Sunrise A few lines I wrote. Have a lovely day!

Calmly, the sun awakens Stretching across the sky, Spreading its golden beam Into the dense mist, More and more confused The moisture dissipates, Escaping the energy released By the filaments of light The reflections of the rays fuse Igniting the whole horizon Embellishing the fragrant garden A magical color scheme A colorful fresco, Like an enchanted painting Caresses your twinkling eyes...

Skin as pale as snow 🤍 And Lips as red as a rose, 🌹 Eyes that intimidate even the hawk 🐦 And smile that slays even the gods, 😊 Shining in the sun like a beautiful dagger 🗡️ That stabs in my heart that I always remember, 💘 The one I meet by the twist of fate ⚡ And the voice that goes through heaven's gate 😇

Discovered

In the depths of solitude, I discovered my strength, A journey of self-discovery, I embarked at great length. Alone, yet not abandoned, I found solace in my soul, Unveiling the depths within me, making my spirit whole. In the stillness of the night, as shadows danced and played, I stood tall, unyielding, no longer afraid. For in the silence, I found a voice that was my own, A symphony of resilience, a melody, unknown. I wandered through the pathways of my deepest fears, Embracing the darkness, embracing the tears. But with each step forward, I found courage anew, The strength that lay dormant, suddenly broke through. Like a phoenix rising from ashes, I soared above, Reveling in the newfound power of self-love. No longer dependent on others for my worth, I emerged from the depths, a phoenix rebirthed. Through solitude's embrace, I found my truth, A tapestry of scars weaved into eternal youth. For being alone doesn't mean being weak, It's a chance to rebuild, a chance to seek. I stand now, a warrior, with scars of battles past, Stronger than before, my spirit steadfast. In solitude's embrace, I found my greatest friend, Myself, the one who's been with me until the end. So in the midst of loneliness, let your spirit soar, Discover your inner strength, like never before. Embrace the journey, the shadows, and the pain, For in being alone, you'll find yourself again.

Knotted Thread of Consciousness

I'm only an epitome of my innermost thoughts and dreams. I channel this energy into a receptive epiphany. Overrun the tyranny that has been implanted inside o' me. Brainwashed by society; blinded, I've lost sight o' me. If you ask me what I think, the missing link has gone extinct. We're part of the whole solar system yet so out of sync. Intuition should've been a part of human instinct. Life is like a ball of yarn waiting to be pulled; giving the curious cat inside of me an uncontrollable urge to play. Watch my inner thoughts unravel, but I got lost somewhere along the travel. Who would've known that I could've sewn, but instead, the yarn became tangled. The more I fought, the more it strangled. Trapped in the middle of my own mess, I can either remain still and oppressed, or figure out which escape route is best.

QUEST written by me

Glimpsing your thirsty eyes, peckish to sullied the innocence wearing a guiltless disguise. Like a vampire kisses his mortal beloved against her favour, Like a lovesick body etherized colder than frost, warmer than fever. Unearthing your soul as one hunts a pin in dusty hay, Flare of living in a cruel heart, Like a lost pedestrian searching for his fate, A thirsty gipsy longs for a plunge of water in the desert .

💜🩶

"You Don’t Just Lose Someone Once" You lose them over and over, sometimes many times a day. When the loss, momentarily forgotten, creeps up, and attacks you from behind. Fresh waves of grief as the realization hits home, they are gone. Again. You don’t just lose someone once, you lose them every time you open your eyes to a new dawn, and as you awaken, so does your memory, so does the jolting bolt of lightning that rips into your heart, they are gone. Again. Losing someone is a journey, not a one-off. There is no end to the loss, there is only a learned skill on how to stay afloat, when it washes over. Be kind to those who are sailing this stormy sea, they have a journey ahead of them, and a daily shock to the system each time they realize, they are gone, Again. You don’t just lose someone once, you lose them every day, for a lifetime. Author & Artist: Unknown

My very first poem

“I let you in, deeper than my veins, Caring for you, like endless rains. Mentor, idol, a life's sweet song, No one held me like you, for so long. Your words were lullabies, soothing and mild, I'd listen closely, like a curious child. Grew in me fast, like a sturdy tree, Never dreamed you'd cast me aside, but I see. I wish you well as I go my way, In this chapter's end, I'll find my day. Though wounds may ache, my spirit will soar, Farewell to you, as I close this door.”

I Can't Be The Only One

I like writing poetry but I'm cautious about sharing them because I haven't copyrighted my work yet. So, someone could steal my work and I wouldn't know. So, I keep them to myself until it's time to publish and share with the world. Can anyone relate?

The Wind's hug

Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou, i uttered a thousand times, it's just not enough. for the number of hugs the wind is giving me, for the number of kilometres the clouds are racing in the sky, as of a transient cold spell. my head hurts. for it'll fulminate any moment, with the pondering thoughts. but the wind doesn't stop hugging me I wonder why. what is this affection I'm feeling? what are all these silent promises I'm hearing? what is this gratitude that's overwhelming me? what is this beauty that's captivating me? I see the kids playing near by a temple so carefree, full of life the kind of attitude that I've given up on yet, the wind doesn't stop hugging me. I see the signal tower blinking red every other second the fresh water channels shining like crystal caves, by the reflection of light on it's body. I find myself, wishing on a cloud that's shaped like a genie's lamp. I wished for everybody else. me? I count with everybody else, right? I heard the zephyr whisper in my ears 'yes' for the soul of it in my veins, reminds me of the Stardust I'm made of. Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou, i uttered a thousand times, It's just not enough. PS : I suppose it's not that good. I could do better. But yeah, let me know what you guys think about this in the comments🐢
