Eat Your (He)Art Out
A white washed wall
Imperfect. Spots of its
Past visible, hazy and covered.
Blue, red, yellow, lilac,
Flash of orange, green hypnosis.
History peers, it reaches
Desperately, clawing its way
Through layer after layer,
To no avail.
A painting - young woman
Handsome of face, small
stature. Reflection, piercing
Through the glass, empty frame of a
Windowsill. Features incandescent,
Eyes burning with life, glazed
With reverie and hope. Vanity.
Yet old and stale - the oil dry,
Crusting, crumbling as
I touch my finger to the surface,
To share, join, take the naivety
To no avail.
Further back, another body, female
Sitting on a stone cold bench,
Watching on, faceless observer
Guardian of the golden.
She is unknown, hidden
by the blur, the rush
Of paint, hastily applied. Afterthought.
Mystery blends with the flowers, sweet.
Their stems and leaves holding
Her, enclosing her, child. Arms
Stretched, summer's nothingness reigns,
She grasps at stifled, hot air.
Trying to catch her dreams
To no avail.
Just reading your first poem here electricxlovex. I'm impressed!!! I hoped you would share some writing with us, and I hope you share some more in the future. It gets less scary the more you do it!
Some great lines in this one, very evocative
This was my favourite part:
She is unknown, hidden
by the blur, the rush
Of paint, hastily applied. Afterthought.

pearljamfan-1997 ....
my advice,
save all the mementos, decades later they will lie in the palm of your hand....
1000 ft. closet
Away from the world, I have saved my world,
no panes to see through just the years all gone.
My life in my 1000 ft. closet.
On the hangers, places traveled, events passed.
A notched wicker basket, filled with mementos.
Destined never to forgot, they lie in the palm of my hand....
A single red rose pin, my Mother's passing.
Little pink dress, satin shoes, my daughter's birth.
A shell peanut, whose tiny face drawn carefully,
marks the size of our unborn son.
Forever it smiles at me, made blurry,
by my tears that always come.
A tiny tooth fairy pillow, dusty and faded
once held the dreams and the smiles of my child.
High heeled shoes of past dances
and a wedding dress 30 years old,
loves celebration renewed.
Lessons learned, some never learned.
Lies told, actions forgiven....
hope never lost.

Dalton :
Its all because of you That all my dreams come true You are always there to brighten my day and make me happy in your own special way You dont know how much I care Whenever you need me I will be there No body is special for me except you I love you so much and its really true. Your smile awakens my soul, As the sun awakens the day. A kiss and my life is yours, It seems a fair price to pay. Your touch arouses my senses, As the moon arouses the night. Your heart endures all emotion, As the sky endures all the stars. Love me and we'll have eternity, There is no greater love than ours. (This is what i did in English class<3)
Dalton :
Your Perfect* Because everything you do Makes me smile… Because every second I spend with you Is worthwhile.. Because when you laugh at me I laugh too Because everyone else can see That I’m devoted to you.. Because I love your eyes and the way they shine… Because you don’t tell lies and you’re so beautiful when you whine.. Because when you get mad You can’t hide it.. Because even when you’re sad I can find it.., your spirits so free and you’re so dang fine! Because I never stop thinking about you.. Its not fair.. Because you’re just perfect and no one else can compare… I Love You Callen<3

THE I'S OF LOVE
The I's of love . . .
not always soft and shining
reflecting a beauty
of hearts desire and need.
No . . .
As many things I can be ... so can the I's of love.
Sunken, discouraged, beaten and resentful.
Bitter, distrusting, suspicious and insecure.
As many things you can be ... so can the I's of love.
Glazed, forbidden, disrespectful and ashamed.
Sullen, deceitful, cynical and defensive.
Empty, skeptical, jealous and judgemental.
As many things we can be ... so can the I's of love.
The I's of love see the truth ... the truth is in the love.
I Love You . . .0 -
This thread should be retitled the 'Let's get all mushy' thread. Your poem Pandora is honest and dark though. I like it!
Thank God I am not in love currently - but let me see if I can compose my own sort of love poem for you!!
The day you said goodbye
I was waiting in all day
You said you had made something for me
Something to mark our time together
A part of you, to go with what we had together
We had something sacred but we burned so bright
We almost burned each other out
You chose normality
And I chose to still love you
And still I find it impossible to bear you any ill
I never saw you again
But I found on my doorstep a tapestry
Colours rich and woven in gold, green and amber
Something living breathing, growing
A tree under glass
You must have stayed up for nights making it for me
While every night I tried to reach you
I realise why you never answered my calls
But even now I don't know which I would have wished for more
Something lifelong, hanging on my wall
Or just one chance, to say a last goodbyeCancel my subscription to the Ressurection

Your poem is beautiful, I can see it all
a tree ... like a tree of life... everlasting love
but you had no choice even in a last goodbye
very very lovely tremors...

Yes, it is probably the most beautiful thing I own, but I can't always see it through the pangs.
You used to be the Mush Queen maybe, but these days you're on a whole other level. I think it's since you stopped writing while under the influence of the booze!Cancel my subscription to the Ressurection
