Sweet Mysteries of LifeThe night sky holds all our secrets
Of lovers lost under the yellow moon
Dreaming of yesterday in the haste of today
Weaving words that will only get lost in tomorrow

A wilting rose dies a slow death
bereft of the sense of purpose
To be mourned as a man cries for his loss
As a woman will cry for her innocence

A bitter-sweet moment in a memory paled
Placed in a trinket box filled with hope
Silence reigns as whimsy replaces the time had
and searches for answers in tears that fall

Ghosts blunder in confusion and ignorance
Giving no closure for those left behind
Hiding between worlds , still holding on
Unable to let go o

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

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..

Hope Eternal..Look in the mirror, what do I see
Staring right in front of me
A body with no where to go
Pain so raw, a need to know

Time is fleeting, gone so fast
Wanting more, it will not last
A second, a minute or just a day
A month, a year or come what may

Joy is found and then is gone
A memory made within a song
We see, we saw and then is spent
A glimpse in life is all that's meant

Place the sun, the wind and rain
Within your senses to play again
To feel and touch and be as one
No day complete unless it's done

Feel the love there is to give
Without of which we cannot live
Needed like a breath of air
It's truest form, so very ra

My love lost..Warm traces of September
Drifting in the breeze,
Thoughts of you resurface
To bring me to my knees

I dream you right before me
The wind within your hair
A smile upon your ruby lips
Our lives without a care

But then there came November
and the rain changed into snow
It made your heart as cold as ice
and beckoned you to go

We drifted and we parted
No longer two as one
Just looking back in sorrow
At what our love had done

From what was once so special
was now a tangled mess
Regrets and angst embedded
upon my wedding dress

You left me at the altar
On that cold November day
To stand so lost and lonely
While you went so far away

So here I am

I wish..
Some-one would love me
I wish..
They really would
I wish..
Some-one would love me
If only they just could

For you see, it is not easy
When I cannot deal with trust
The pain and the betrayal
Has left a hardened crust
Upon this heart that beats so dark
The scars have left their tears
No place for me to run and hide
Away from all my fears

One day, melds with another
and leaves an empty space
No purpose in this life of mine
My dreams, a forgotten place
I need to see the sun that shines
Within a friendly smile
To give me hope in tomorrow
and warm me for a while

For now, I must walk alone
My path an untu

Uttered in Silence..Talking in whispers
So no-one can hear
Cringing in madness
shaking in fear

My mind is a blank
and yet I still dream
Of yesterdays pain
the angst I have seen

My tears they do fall
I scream out your name
No-one is here
You never came

I writhe in my bed
No sleep to be had
A name etched in blood
has driven me mad

Insanity plays
the strings of my heart
A mournful tune
that keeps us apart

I need you to see
who I really am
Not who you want
I don't give a damn

Words of the soul
that cuts me so deep
Blood that is spilled
as angels do weep

My eyes I do close
and yet I can see
There is no tomorrow
For you or for me

Just Me..I am really struggling here.
Not seeing the light in day and being swallowed by the darkness of the night.
Voices pound my head incessantly and shriek shrill messages until my hands cover my ears to block out what I do not want to hear.
But it doesn't help they still find their way into my mindspace.
Screaming.
Shouting.
Cursing.
Laughing.
Mocking.
Oh how I hate what they do to me.
How can I be alive and still breathing when I am in so much pain.
This is not me all the time, in fact I am just like you.
I walk, talk, see and breathe the same air.
But inside I am a twisted, broken mess of emotion.
Looking f

Thinking out LoudI hide neath my skin
and smile from within
At all that passes me by
I shout out a word
That cannot be heard
In syllables that float to the sky

I snicker and sneer
As I quell all my fear
and place it far from my sight
Laugh though I could
and surely I would
placing darkness into the light

My hands they do shake
as I continue to take
What I believe belongs to me
I have to be strong
and right all my wrongs
placing joy in my recovery

Moments are rare
When we really care
To see beauty wherever we look
I crawl from inside
No longer to hide
My soul now an open book

Time is our gift
To give one a lift
So believ

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,

To Dream.Your dream is placed within your heart
To grow with you and never part
Until the day that you will see
Where all your dreams became reality..

Tragedy's MuseBlame me not, for I am a disillusioned soul that's lost their way,
midst many a broken promise and shattered dreams
I see, before me, an enveloping darkness that is threatening
my sanity, akin to tempests of somber misconception

Tears fill these clouds to bursting and droplets of their pain fall like
rivulets on unsuspecting passersby with no purpose in their stride
Surprise is etched on their faces as hands wipe the wetness
from their skin, in a hurried fashion, seemingly alike a scalding heat

Sensitivity being an emotion hidden behind forgotten trysts and the
never-ending confusion that to care is the ultimate betrayal
I smell t

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..

Hopes RenewalMy play with words is simple
Just saying what I feel
Hoping you can hear me
Praying that you heal

We all fall by the wayside
recover, though we must
Find our strength and courage
Learning when to trust

Though pain is meant to guide us
Tis, a hard road that we tred
Searching where we all belong
Walking tall and not with dread

Our love we give so freely
and yet we are so torn
From what is seen as happiness
Is shattered and filled with scorn

We look within for answers
Searching far and wide
Our hearts filled with our memories
No reason then to hide

Tears will cleanse our soul
and help us start again
To find a be

Where Forgotten Days Slumber

Where forgotten days will slumber,
No hope of peaceful rest
A pillow to lay my head upon,
A grassy mound at best
With nature, though it changes,
Holds true the seasons sight
from cold to autumn's colour,
In sun and springs delight..

Life's RoadWe all seem lost, but at any cost, we must open our eyes to see
The Beauty within, will shadow the sin, and set our demons free

We scream it seems, within our dreams, and yet we do not wake
So hush dont cry, for its goodbye, our love a barbed mistake

Ragged breaths we breathe, just to believe, another day will come
Our hearts to heal, to pray and kneel, so Heaven can be done

So often heard, on fallen word, that those who cry no tears
Sing praises strong, of where we belong, and cast away our fears

To be aware, of those who care, and push them not away
For a day will come, to bring undone, those who choose to str

My Minds EyeMorning light follows the darkest night to spread a sunny hue
Mr Moon will rest in sleepy jest under the blankets blue
Stars do weep as they go to sleep to rest until its time
To wake again as morning rain to give the dew its shine
Scattered wings of faeries sing as breezes through the trees
Soft as sighs in morning skies all memories eyes will seize
Birds do sing as bluebells ring to greet the brand new day
Clouds will puff just enough in their own peculiar way
Grass so green than ever seen a smell so subtly sweet
A more blessed sight after every night you will never meet

These visions I create for you
To help and make you see
Th

ConsummationWild tempests freed as wounds do bleed
Raw angst a torturous flight
On souls do tread with malicious dread
Lost in the dark of night

With arms outstretched and then to wretch
The life we need to live
To draw it close when needed most
Our love not ours to give

Sensuous barbs sing as bells do ring
Gently floating on a breeze
Pure hearts will break and souls do take
Each moment that we seize

Beauteous captivate then made to wait
Enduring a day in hell
Our eyes so blind they cannot find
Tranquility in which to dwell

To be content with what is meant
Fortuitous moments come
To plainly see what will surely be
A gift to share with

My Minds Abyss

I am but a participant in this wretched game of life
Waiting for one solitary glimpse of who I really am
Louvered fragments of pain, strength and courage
Tousled with joy, laughter and momentary happiness
The heated glare of darkened purgatory madness
Guiding me to the cooler shadows of where I should be

Too many thoughts race continually through my mind
causing me to shake in a nervous tic of anxiety
I sound mad but be not deceived by my confusion
As it is not madness but fear of the known
A nervous laugh erupts because in all this clarity
I slip further into my minds abyss

Love and warmth of another's compassion is all we seek

Beautiful Dawn

by ~LACYDRAWERS, Dec 28, 2009, 9:56:44 PM
Literature / Poetry / Philosophical / Spoken Word

Dawn, as it breaks
Will give as it takes
A moment of pleasure and pain
The warmth of the sun
To rise and be done
Setting scenes that forever remain

To sigh and to breathe
Is destined to leave
Creating a gap in lives to be had
Shedding a tear
and lost in our fear
Blaming regrets on why we are sad

Breaking a heart
Then tearing apart
The solace in which we are placed
Clawing our skin
To begin yet again
Begging for love in ultimate haste

Take pity on me
See more than you see
Give me courage to keep moving on
It is but a game
To lay all the blame
On love that is broken and gone

Shaking my head
Of lost faith and dread
And smiling for being alive
A new dawn will break
To give and not take
Seeing clarity in what will survive
