New World Poetry (4/28/2012-6/28/2012)
Autumn (6/17)It's first step is a gasp
It's second, a grasp A prelude to our white blankets The forefront holding hands with August Burning green, then to brown Falling peacefully to sound With the crunching, with the breeze Warmer days have caught a cold The chills, they are a sneeze With the sun and with the days Making haste, making haste Look over, look over The first white speck had fallen to ground Melody in rain (6/16)Through dreams and through rain
Oh, this endless valley of rain Struck with such harmony Dropping so gracefully Each and every one One like the other Splashing, quenching the ground's thirst Regrown, revived, relived The stroke of my finger Carefully hinting at the drenched leaf Strumming like a harp A drop falls off May drops and may drips Oh, could I hear the ground sing These droplets crashing Singing a song of rain What a wonderful melody Where this orchestra plays The clouds guiding through When this harmony comes down Quenching and drenching So come and sing me another song Play me your sound through your rainfall Through dreams and through rain The lull of a bird's song (6/8)There is no time
There is no way To find, to bring, to carry on I wander on I wonder if A life, A bird, that flew away It flaps it's wings It sets for skies And looks, And dreams, of home again Where the river flows Where the wind blows This bird, This truth, A true felt friend Singing the sunset as the days passed Here stands today Here where I am Let not, Let not, Time slips away Along our path Along this way The song, the sound, the lull of day So bright with skies So light, it flies My friend, my smile, a part of me She brought smiles She brought a breath Such heart, such song, a graceful peace Dreaming of rain, to grow seeds in light Another tree Another place We flew, We stood, among a branch Shadows cast high Shadows soothe skin From somber, from somber, she gave me hope Tomorrow ends Tomorrow halts A journey, a flight, as time does part I cannot bear I cannot speak As time, as paths, they will soon part What could I hold What was foretold Why me, why now, while the bird sings? There is no time There is no way To find, to bring, to carry on I wander on I wonder if Our paths, our lives, would cross again To find again Someone like you Is like, is just, to search forever Dreams (6/3)I cannot speak
Nor could I close my eyes To find myself surrounded by a dream This dream was once in my arms Wanting it to lull asleep And settle in a tranquil world I always try to hold this dream As well as I could possibly do However dreams sometimes, are gone As my dreams turned to ashes And the dust around me an ocean Only drowning in what I shed Had my eyes seen a dream So distant, yet so close This dream had such a wonderful voice Singing to my heart a timeless peace This dream is my heart Countlessly holding on Only this dream had brought me smiles As tears rolled in my eyes This dream was my long lost happiness Where is my dream now? Not all are perfect Even I was standing in pieces But seeing dreams leave Shattered me mercilessly As I never wanted this dream to go Maybe there was a wrong step A mistake was spawned But dreams aren't bound By distance and time This dream I had, was the perfect dream A meadow with life Much like the light that was breathing Now the light is gone Not all are perfect But there came a day, my dream parted I still keep her in my heart, as forever is passing I only walked after my heart (5/16)I only walked after my heart
To cross the bridges Maybe problems have arisen Bury me in tension The pain's fire burns me The rain from my eyes douse it So while I'm poisoned My life is speaking I don't take chances And still I fall Why am I simply freed When such things confine my world? Where has this been While my heart knew all along? Since when did forever die While sorrow was still alive? How does a smile and moment Turn into a glimpse lost ages ago? The answers aren't awakened Yet we lie still and shaken So as time rises above us We hit this ground To come to realize That everything is a blur A mere stream Of an ocean spread around Only a flame shows But one day we will see the fire It's a whisper Someday to be a crowd So why are questions so far When feelings are so close? All I could say And the least I have spoken From the depths of what's left of my heart Comes close and into my dreams What I thought I have lost I'd love to hold in my arms again This warmth, this quilt I'm sitting in wintry winds Whipping clean my mourning and soul As shadows grow stronger and time moves farther Oh please give me hope And don't take my rope It's wrapped well around my neck Just like love has lost its grip I let go And life clenches Death will be my healing Because life is my suffering Forever is dead So death is forever The world without me is bliss So let me die and end this suffering For death is the healing From the love that was lost And the soul I had shared Every step I was granted Every breath I had broken For it was for the souls we had both shared The breaths and tokens of time we strolled upon To the stars and mystic dreams now behind I followed you to find my dreams I only walked after my heart Bequeath Thy Tyre (4/28)Crimson shards of thy sickly tyre
Cometh forth annihilating souls Shells ov corpses march amongst flames As thy land shalt crumble from time Rotten and washed thy minds are chains Bound ov grim insanity ov tyre Rebels amort from untimely slumber Shedding lost regrets on eternal scales Brawling brushes of clashing forces Soak and paint thy lands of wounds Shattered graves amongst our skies Broken gates shy dark regrets For the land sunk deep within doom Baffle and barge thy untimely tyre Brace our bards for another bloodshed We carry thy intentions in cade Constant tremors ov battling warriors Cometh to my ear as a screech Winds whip clean of these very last bones Such a corollary fate of black So here I rest on my final stone A relic of this sickly tyre Death is in peace (4/26-5/13)Slumber is serenity
So long from this misery So i'll let it take my hand As I fall into the land And to be taken into this realm Free of glum souls Death is in peace It'll take my last piece To a place i'll at east know For life isn't an eternal glow Of light My ears frozen, my eyes not trusting The aspect of living anymore As a corpse I'll be safe In the arms of my grave So let it be That my time is over The burning realm of afterworld Is more trustworthy than life For this desolation is an excuse Just another mask For lies Let my unworthy flesh Be burned for all of time Please, my friend, take me away Take me to my grave My sweet rekindling death My last drop of blood Has dripped |
Skies and Silk (6/17)Where would the winds blow?
Where do the winds howl? Oh soaring in skies, I say! What lovely, so gently Surrounded in silk So softly, what swiftly Do the puffs with shapes flow Well written, well cast Swim free, swim free Oh blending with blue, I see! Such silk, so pure Spilt all across the skies To cuddle, to curl In silk I close my eyes I know the morning after I know I'm surrounded in joy Starlight (6/17)Starlight, you weep your stars across the sky
As each teardrop shines upon the ground below The mistress of this night awakens me She takes my hand, I follow through A sincere beauty, mellow up above Such blue, such white, such a distance to the bliss Immersing within As my thoughts, As my eyes, ponder amidst Where could such starlight take me Where this wonder has taken me tonight So captivating, held within the hands of my mind Small streaks, a wish had been born So supple the starlight Within the dances of my thoughts Only laying back, to look further As the mistress of night, kisses the moon to sleep Starlight, you've shed more tears As the moon's untouched slumber reveals more to seek Only the merrier, do more stars frisk amongst the voids Such a breeze, tender to the cheek Much a tease, to the heartwarming sight The mistress of night lays rest to every teardrop As an orange glow scurries the weeping Starnight, you've weeped your stars across the skies The mistress of night, peacefully asleep. What is a void? (6/4)What is a void?
A hole, a missing place Felt deep within ourselves There's no escape From something within us This void, this gruesome reality For as pitch dark and unseen As it's unforgiving claws are Sneaking up, ripping apart Our flesh, especially our hearts Nothing but meager waste in it's eyes This void, this valley The place I'll always dread Always sabotaging what's left of me Like wildfire, like the burning trees It only spreads, and leaves charred remains Killing the animals in this blaze They couldn't escape Just as this void took them, innocently As the innocence of this void is dreaded So is this world blinded That love isn't what it seems to be It is a suicide waiting to happen The lost and last breath (5/12) There was once a small dog, a heart, much like a clean sheet of paper, jaunty, jubilant, quite the manner of a young and fresh path in life, not dense, and not far from home, the woods aren't protruding sight, nor is the sun blinding the course of life. As this young dog strolls off, walking on this path, a heart meets another, and quite fondly become acquaintances, and soon after, a love, sparked by desire and friendship and the truthful support of each other, paints happiness into both hearts, as they are tickled by each other's company, and warmed from the light they share. Quite a timeless place to say the least, the two dogs are running, imaginably as fast as you could catch them with your eye. Time walks by them, and through these many circles it makes around the two hearts, maybe one or another grows weary, and then once, then finally, one decides to leave. The other, weeps until the night has come to take this heart into it's arms, as the dog cries for help, mercilessly as pain pounds the heart. Nightfall was just the beginning of this warzone, of course. There were creatures in this forest surrounding. Loneliness, tears, depression, and death, all with claws ready to lick clean the bones of this poor animal, as the heart attempts to defend itself, it too is bitten, by desperation, and by the tyre of love. Broken to it's last of bone, this dog makes it out alive, but not quite full of time so much as before. So while this dog pants, it breathes and sends masses of sorrow from it's eyes, it only looks deeper into the distance to reveal a path that will come to a day that ends with a drop. As the eyes of this untimely cough echo amongst the ears of others and out the tears of the ones surrounding, this last breath gives up on the pooch, and so does the frail heart of the one lost will of love, both collapse, and both fade away, now lost, the caress of the wind fades from the cheek, and life forgets the kiss. And may the kiss not be forgotten in life, but as the path moves on, the lost cries of the tragedy uncovered in the sadistic drenched past, has forever embedded such sorrow in the past, in the heart of love itself. For love may frolic on the smile amongst the sun, and the shores may wash away the life that was lived, but along this beach walks a heart, still dripping crimson from the battle, a battle lost into the abyss never to be reached by arms of comfort. So let this love and light frolic, but let it not divert from the truthful souls who would cherish such a dream, and such a reality.
