To RememberMy breath, is caught, within a sigh
Remembering moments of days gone by
My Lovers found and passion spent
Of no regrets and friendships meant
Our souls entwined for evermore
The rhyme and reason, my heart to store

I see myself so fancy-free
Each day was filled with what was me
A woman in a world of hope
Of seeds to sow and ways to cope
With promise and the need to know
Adventures fresh with eyes aglow

I see, I saw, my eyes I close
my precious moments, in time I froze
I hear, I heard, now silence reigns
Of sounds and words, the fear that feigns
the truest part of who I am
Of

My Languid lullabyWrap me in your arms tonight
Come stay with me till morning light
En-mesh our bodies so they are one
and sate our lust till rising sun

Kiss me softly from head to toe
and find the places that you know,
will rouse me from this tousled sleep
My heart forever is yours to keep

Our love but once, so hard to find
together two souls, in space entwined
To be our bond forever more
In bliss we find our hearts to store

We linger a while before we sleep
Our words of passion in mind we keep
To remember love that holds us close
In memories when we need them most

Languid breaths within a sigh
lost in motion

Simple AsWhat would you really wish for,
If wishes were real?
To shed hope amongst the people,
and this world of ours to heal
Give dreams to all believers
and light in every day
Guide us, who have forgotten,
and show them all the way..

Forget about possessions,
As they can implant greed
Could be something just as simple,
As a tree, a plant or seed
To give hope, to nourish and to show
That with a tender love
A garden will surely grow..

It is the same with humans,
we really need to see
That beauty from within
is purest in majesty
The outside will age and fade
and forever be no more
Our heart it gathers love
and ins

Can you See me?My tears,  they fall so silently
No one to care or comfort me
To walk alone and wonder why
I always feel the need to cry

Confusion is heavy in my heart
I sigh out loud,  and play my part
Within this game, that dulls my soul
and breaks my spirit,  which once was whole

I see no joy in every day
What once was there, has gone away
I seek,  but never do I find
What brings to me, my peace of mind

The shadows darken all my light
I seek my refuge in the night
To hide myself amongst my fears
To shed again my lonely tears..

ObscuritySuperficial thoughts rummage through my mind
leaving unanswered questions clothed in silence
Plaintively pleading like a beggar on his knees
wanting what he knows he will never have

Recoiling backwards from the stench of poverty
and the insinuation that we are all born equal
Though it is obvious that we become a figment
of class and we only reap what we may sow

Too many times it is the bodies fallen by the wayside
that need nurturing and the comfort of hope
We may curse the unfairness of what is seen as our life,
but in reality we are fortunate to taste mortality

What we do with that privilege is totally up to us and
the burden

Spoken WordsContinually tripping over my words again.
Why do we always ask "How are you?", when we just want to be polite but really feel the urge to run away.
Do we really want to hear the answer?
Do we get more, in the answer, than we really wanted to hear?
I know, when I say those three words, it is because of habit.
Sounds harsh I guess, but it isn't meant to be, for you see, I do care, but do not want to feel what they may be feeling.
This is the moment when the right words never seem to come out of my mouth.
I stumble over "ohhh" and
"I am so sorry" or
"If there is anything I can do to help".
Yet at that very moment we are struggling

Sea Of Tranquility

I walk, I sit, and gaze so breathlessly
Inhaling this scene of pure tranquility
Such beauty in this moment found
The music to my ears this sound
Of crashing waves and mystery deep
With struggles it intends to keep

I sigh, when thinking of the souls
lost within the deep blue folds
That something tangible, and yet so raw
Can leave you wanting so much more
I tremble as I smell the salt
Mixed with pain and no-ones fault

I look for miles and all I see
Is promise that was meant to be
Amidst confusion and love's sweet hurt
The grains of sand that turn to dirt
Within my hands it seeps to dust
The sadness torn in loss of trust

She

I Dream, You Dream

Come pray with me for eternal bliss
Of laughter in dreams, and love's first kiss
To hope for days of everlasting sun
Of a bright new world that has just begun
Back in time when all was clear
A world without ego, judgment or fear
Unlocked doors and pleasures of purest simplicity
Of love between Them and Us and You and Me

I laugh, a nervous laugh, a dream I know
Of hidden complexities too scared to show
I guess somewhere, somehow, it once was
Shed with tears of memories, all but lost
Resurrect me not when I am gone, to keep me with you still
Hold me now, to your heart, until you've had yo

Eternal Yesterday..

The touch of you still lingers,
deep beneath my skin
Creating visions of your lips
and places they have been

I smile as I remember,
your body next to mine
Longing to explore me,
our hearts and soul entwined

I sigh in adoration,
of whom I loved the most
Yet this is not reality,
For you are just a ghost

I knew you once so long ago
and yet I hunger still
My mind still living that one day;
I guess it always will

For once a heart gives in to love,
so completely will it fall
To take you to euphoria,
where time will seem to stall

I live within my fantasy
and dream of how we were
I see you laying next to me,
not leaving me for

EpitaphA forlorn silhouette walks
Leaving footprints in the rain
Fading in the distance
Caught up in the pain

No tears will I shed
No screams will I cry
No mere words
Will seal this goodbye

Answers are few
The questions so many
Hidden within are
Dreams for a penny

No tears will I shed
No screams will I cry
No mere words
will seal this goodbye

A new day tomorrow
Will see me begin
To heal and forgive
My one burning sin

All tears I have shed
My screams I have cried
The words have been said
My love it has died..

Cry not for mePieces of my heart, scattered on the floor
To be entwined with yours, never more

My tears, they drown my very soul
Each droplet spent, as they do roll
across the moments, that we once knew
now sadness reigns, where love once grew

I place a piece within my hand
and all I see is shifting sand

Of what we had, but is no more
mere yearning is all for me to store
Within my trinket box of dreams
Life is always, not as it seems

A blink in time can change it all
From euphoric to pity's call

A sound we do not want to hear
In most it brings the gravest fear
Of lovers found and then to part
Leaving scattered pieces,

Whispers in the WindLife goes on midst whispers in the wind
Of where I'm going to and where I've been
All secrets stored in the memories made
The hello's said and goodbye's bade

Of friends once found and then to lose
In choices found and then to choose
Seldom seen of what is crystal clear
To haunt us yet within our fear

Of loneliness and the loveless still
To mask our pain against our will
A scent of purpose instils us yet
with courage and hope to see us let
us open our hearts to what is good
Our souls as spiritual as they should
Place us where we are meant to be
Amongst the glades of serenity

Each day a trial and triumph will
Beget of those wit

Free to FeelThis pain I feel, though fleeting
Will mar my wounded heart
It stains a picture perfect,
and ends what we did start
A vision of what may of been,
was spied when we did part

I hear my sigh upon the wind
and close my eyes so tight
To dream within my fantasy,
A pure and sensual sight
A closeness that we crave to feel
Shredding darkness with rays of light

As humans, we are selfish
and take more than we give
we need to see our fragility
and give substance to how we live
To free what we have hidden,
Teaching souls, how to forgive

So dream I will, and give my love,
To one who may not stay
Tis better than not knowing
The lig

So This is ChristmasOh Christmas-time, you bring to me,
Joy and love placed in a memory
Much sadness also finds its place
Someone lost, an empty space

Where once was family, now is few
and silence reigns its subtle hue
Adornments create a festive feel
Plying gently for the heart to heal

I sing along to "Oh Christmas Tree"
A song you always sang to me
The tears I shed are lost once more
Amongst the now and what I'm thankful for

I take a breath and laugh out loud
To guide my heart within this crowd
Of family and friends whom I hold so dear
This very sentimental time of year

We give a gift and share our love
And pray our thanks to God above
F

Winter WonderlandSnow blankets the fields that once were green
This Winter Wonderland which can be seen
Creating starkness in a shade of white
We gaze in awe upon this sight

Snowflakes drifting slowly to the ground

                     Floating softly without a sound

                     Placing shapes upon this earth

Life's Beautiful Struggle

Life's beautiful struggle we do endure

Mingled with paramount moments and
the subtle scent of purpose

Vivid hues layered amongst euphoria and
blanketed with unforgettable sorrow

Vast is our knowledge that one day of happiness
far outweighs many of sadness

And yet we still follow our hearts to have them
broken and left in pieces

Tis better to have known fleeting love than to
exist a lifetime in utter loneliness

The taste of pliant giving to another cannot be
described unless felt in reality

Life's beautiful struggle we will endure..

Falling Under

Would you see me, if I was standing right in front of you?
A broken doll with her hair askew, and no reason to smile
Torn remnants of days gone by, in a flurry of wishful thinking
Plied together with the blood of my tears and no where to run
So many words within my head, but silence reigns and pity is scarce
Too much hurt tainted with insane laughter, in attics of deserted lives
with ghostly hearts scattered on the floor

Would you hold me close, if I was standing right in front of you?
Naked in my emotions, with my soul bare in its transparency
Seeking love not lust in all its duplicity, hiding behind sordid lies
Time will pass as

Sadly SoToday is turning out to be one of the most disappointing days of my life.
What does that mean?
Hell I don't know!!!!
Maybe I am too trusting.
Or just maybe others are too deceptive in their nature.
What has happened to TRUST?
I could kick myself right about now.
To cut a story short, I had distanced myself from a situation and after many months of healing and self-recrimination I felt as if I had healed enough to forgive myself for letting myself be put in a position that turned out to be detriment to myself, mentally and physically. Then an offering of sorts came out of the blue to make me believe that to finally put this d

Maybe One DayYour glance..
Has me stumbling blindly through scenarios,
inventing trysts within my imagination

Your words..
Covetously spoken in desirous tones, sending
shivers to rankle up and down my spine

Your touch..
Hot as burning embers, searing a path
of ultimate submission, culminating in ecstasy

Your scent..
Lost in tangled aromas of sandalwood and
passions musk, with the promise of always

Your kiss..
Warm as summer sunshine, with a hint of
yearning hunger, and unadulterated lust

I have not met you yet; but I will know you when I do..

Forever is a Long Time

Forever is a long time,
So much longer than a day
Forever is filled with memories,
Many more than I can say

Days of boundless beauty, stretching farther than I can see
Nights of purest solitude, that set my spirits free
My mind, it gets to thinking, of all that matters most
Pertaining to what is seen as real, or fleeting as a ghost
To live can have no boundaries, and give us all our fill
To live life to the fullest, and share with others still

For you see...
Forever is a long time,
So much longer than a day
Forever is filled with memories,
Many more than I can say

There will be no Tears

Here I stand before you,
My words aimless and unsaid
Such depths of tortured emotion,
Still spinning in my head

I see, I want, yet cannot have
What makes me feel alive
So pliantly my heart is yours
Your love of which I strive

I will not cry these tears,
For one who will not see
Imprisoned in this soul of mine,
To become a memory

Yesterday is gone forever
Today an ashen pyre
Tomorrows dreams are far away
My future seems so dire

N
O
I say unto myself
My life is filled with much
To give to those who treasure me
And long my gentle touch

You see me here before you
A woman who s

A Soul's Passing

by ~LACYDRAWERS, Nov 10, 2009, 4:18:59 PM
Literature / Poetry / Philosophical / Spoken Word

Place me not, within this ground
To hear no more, a mortal sound
Encumbered by earth, a twisted soul
Covered by death, in this devils hole

I scream, I cry, to no avail
A pity screech, a desperate wail
In this wretched place I be
No more to hear, no more to see

All mourners turn and walk away
Interned in darkness and forced to stay
This knoll is now my resting place
Dried tears are etched upon my face

Six feet under is now my home
No more to wander, no more to roam
A stone is laid upon my head
My body blanketed with a flower bed

Please visit me, although I'm gone
Our bodies wither, but the soul lives on
In hearts of loved ones, for ever more
Dreams to keep and minds to store

Our lives are given as a gift
To help restore and give a lift
To those who shared our living days
In many forms and many ways

So I Rest in Peace with knowledge known
Of eternal slumber and seeds I've sown
I close my eyes and say farewell
To what was once my human shell

I like this poem. 1. It's Poetic elements are good. 2. The rhyming is absolutely awesome. It sounds natural. 3. I like the flow and your transitions. 4. I like the concept you've done. Because most of the time it's the living's point of view not the dead one's. And so I say this is unique in some ways.

It's just that I disagree with the idea. No offense, I respect what you believe. But, I believe that the dead can't communicate with the living and vice versa. It's biblical.

But nonetheless, the pice is good poetically speaking.

~waterspirirtjess Dec 5, 2009

This gave me such a wonderful feeling...even though you write about both death and longing, I feel peace while reading your words. I think there's beauty in every new start we have, and to me death is just that...a new beginning. A birth. And while it's bittersweet, especially for those left behind, it brings so much to life just by its existence. You capture the beauty of both and for that I loved reading this wonderful poem.

~LACYDRAWERS Dec 6, 2009 Professional Writer

Dearest Jess, you are 1 of my staunchest supporters and I am so glad to have you as my friend. I think of you often and pray that all is well in your part of the world. If any of my words bring you comfort then I know I have achieved what I set out to do...
