hands,
like worn maps
folding into mine,
a profile of scars
where our stories cross.
in the creases of your palms
i find the shape of my own,
a followed landscape
of all the ways i've been
broken and remade.
your eyes,
like two... – by Joe Strickland | added by JoeStrickland

Hope for changes.
The tree was standing naked
as the last leaf fell on the ground.
It was a solitary tree
So the chilled air sighed.
The tree was waiting for the spring
which would cover her with leafy rob.
She knew her helplessness

All just the same
My heart is full of peace and love
Full of poetic words from up above
To let you know how the Lord feels
About you and how he heals
All broken hearts and souls
Mends relationships that are torn
Broken bones from... – by Catherine peralta | added by Tisakorbin20

Without the rudiments of anything.
One seeks to accomplish.
From a witnessing observed,
At a distance.
To believe a task,
Made to look easy to succeed.
Yet takes patience, time and dedication.
And often years to develope,
Making it seem... – by Lawrence S. Pertillar | added by lpahtillah

You are a mist within my bones that fills every crevice of my being.
Every thought, every trace is utterly consumed.
My lungs open and shut for you, because you are the air that I breathe.
Within that haze of you, I am free.... – by Cherisa Blacknall | added by septemberblu16

In the realm of knowledge, I find my crown,
A radiant light that shines all around.
Understanding, compassion, and love,
My wisdom companions as I soar above.
But ignorance, disguised as bliss,
Leaves me yearning for truth's gentle kiss.

If I can listen to you.
Knowing this you can not do.
As you expect me to sit.
Hearing your nonsense.
Without taking a breath.
While I am waiting to anticipate,
Something meaningful to learn.
Tolerating with patience.
And my time wasted to... – by Lawrence S. Pertillar | added by lpahtillah

Today is just another day
There was a time when today
Meant more than just another day
It was today, tomorrow, and forever
It was in sickness and in health
Oh, what a joyous time today was.
Only today is filled with a void
A void that... – by Tonya Johnson | added by tonya_j

From my own experiences.
This I know.
As I grew to grow,
More curious about my life.
I fear not,
What has yet to me happened.
Nor will I put myself in a position,
To listen to anyone...
Making attempts to discourage the doing,

Spring has stronger sun light,
As temperature begins to take flight,
While blossoms appear in sight.
Summer is when the sun brings the heat,
So grab the pit and cook some meat,
Or to the river to dip your feet.
Fall is when all the leaves... – by Jonathan A. Lacey | added by Lacey,J

Lost in a endless maze
searching for the exit for days
my mind's at a haze
confused as hope strays
so looking ahead I gaze
for the ground something lays
wondering what it displays
will I be sad or amazed
towards it I go to praise

Proactive is my soul
Impatient by nature
Driven with a mission
desire to bring the fire
Lost in my own mind
Huge hearted creature
Controlled monster
Unexplainable love for my kids
Corney is who I am
Stubborn but strong
For the weak I'll... – by Jonathan A. Lacey | added by Lacey,J

Like someone who falls on a swing, dizzy, certainly with a square, held with an executioner's rope, yet almost torn off, I leave my days like broken shards. It would be nice if all the problems and millions of problems fell out of me once and for... – by Norbert Tasev | added by oasev
