Poetry 5 hours, 44 minutes agoShall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
William ShakespeareShall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometimes too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;
And every fair from fair…[Read more] -

Poetry 5 hours, 46 minutes agoWhere You Go When She Sleeps
T.R. Hummer
What is it when a woman sleeps, her head bright
In your lap, in your hands, her breath easy now as if it had
never been
Anything else, and you know she is dreaming, her eyelids
Jerk, but she is not troubled, it is a dream
That does not include you, but you are not troubled either,
It is too good to hold her…[Read more] -

Poetry 2 weeks agothe unfinished painting lay on the table
like the unfinished lunch, work
unfinished book of love
to be like that was a curse
but that was what was the difference
the charm of unknown always heeded above the desire to complete
like nature’s unfinished beauty
like the unmet rivers
like the urge to believe that’s how it works
People insisted that…[Read more] -

Poetry 2 weeks, 1 day agoYou are the trip I did not take;
You are the pearls I could not buy;
You are my blue Italian lake;
You are my piece of foreign sky.You are my Honolulu moon;
You are the book I did not write;
You are my heart’s unuttered tune;
You are a candle in my night.You are the flower beneath the snow,
In my dark sky a bit of blue,
Answering…[Read more] -

Stimulate the Senses 2 weeks, 5 days agoTime was eroding her courage and she had to decide.
She was going to stand up and she was going to run away.
Life here was dull and very boring and she would not stay here
longer than she had to. So I walked back to the car. Of my
priorities, this was not quite on the bottom but it was close enough.
To me, some how it felt, like mere rain, I was…[Read more] -

Stimulate the Senses 2 weeks, 6 days agowhilst i waited i lied to myself,
for you wouldn’t return from the eternal journey.
I sat by the window to hear the old song of the birds but the sweet melody
seemed like the song of despair,
of long gone days,
of long forgotten tragedy
whilst i waited for the death
i lied to myself
that you left me, for you are the part of me -

Poetry 3 weeks, 2 days agoi waited at the door
You emerged with your eyes puffy
you looked in my direction
our eyes locked for the zenith of a second
That told me the truth of our entangled truth
You were never mine.
There was no beauty just gist for new smell
I was hurt but smiled to myself
for denying you the pleasure to ruin me! -

there you become what you are meant toi dare…[Read more]

Poetry 3 weeks, 3 days agoDAYBREAK ONE – CITY
The light of day
Gently
Pressing the night
Back into its box
Growing warmth
Dissolving the fragile
Mist of the morning
Away
Colours
Lightening
Defining the shapes
Of nature
And man
My world
Beginning to breathe
Taking its first soft breath
Of morning air
The artificial light
Of man
Shamefacedly retreating
As…[Read more] -

Poetry 1 month, 4 weeks agoI’m currently doing an assignment on poetry and all of the texts I can choose from are very depressing. So, I wrote this:
On the whole I found this poetry uninviting,
As if poets spend their saddest moments writing.Their joys are repressed,
and sadness addressed.I found no love or peace
or happier things,
Just cruelty and death
and the pain…[Read more] -

Poetry 1 month, 4 weeks agoThe life I have has just three parts
Making up the whole of me
Only two are deeply intertwined
The third is yet to beThe window – that is all my past
I can still look back and see
But not go back even one small step
And change what once was meThe room – that’s where I am now
It’s all I do and say
It’s where I have a chance to learn
Grow…[Read more]-
