PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

A field before my feet.

The smell of wild flowers; my nose to steep.

Stems adorned with color, glimmering in the exhausted sun.

Waltzing amongst my fingertips; legs eager to run.

There's a shadow near the woods.

Quite a distance, from where I stood.

Gliding, like I sprouted graceful wings.

Twirling winds; in my ears do ring.

A pure familar fragrance, lingering in the air to find.

Something sweet on lips, I've somehow left behind.

The silence of the woods, hum in mysterious concern.

There you stood, a fire in me to burn.

Blossoming in daring flames.

Two souls, a mirror; the same.

The cup was half empty
before we were born
The taste mirrored sour fruit
I collected drops of uncertainty to fill it up
And yet full it never did run
I found you in a sea of faceless books
Drops of laughter filled page after page
of self-loathing
The drug you chose was the remedy
I was deprived
Deep, deep down parts of me
unwound
My darkness, dank and distorted
reached for your elusive light
My madness is infectious
you never stood a chance
We tiptoed silently, searching
for a way around the Burden Tree

A path never travelled would have

been better suited

But now I watch and I wait

you moved on with grace

The staccato rhythm of my thoughts

echo across empty walls

I wish I could split in two

But I was a plague and you were a Pachelbel fugue

Together,

rhyme with no reason

the devil's interval

a space with no shape

...love in an augmented form

But,

the cup was full

the fruit was sweet

And as always...

My madness stained the blue to red

I only know how to create destruction in my Path

I thank the darkness for the distance

and only hope that you find happiness

When I feel down and lost 

And can't find my way in the dark

All you have to do is smile 

And that brightens evrything

So as your presence is around

I pray you stay with me for a very long while 

To my heart a joy you always bring 

When there is a storm over my head 

You make the sun shine

And my soul no longer feels like lead

Now I am feeling alot better because you're mine

You take away the pain

And some how let me know everything is okay

I then have a better day 

And every time happiness you bring 

You are my angel by my side 

You are always there when I need you 

You answer all my prayers

You always guide me through

When I have a tough situation

You help me decide

You some how always keep my skies blue

God sent you to me for a reason

To make sure I make it through life

Make sure I survive

He asks you to guide me through each season

You help me stay alive

In myself and my duties

You help me believe in

With every part of my life

With your big brown eyes

They make me glad you're with me 

God had sent you from the heavens skies

You've changed the way I use to be 

Even though I have my days

I thank the lord above

For not taking you away from me 

So this is why our safety I put in Gods hands

To protect thee

And in return he sends his love

To guide us in a better direction a better way

And for him by our side he'll always stand

Whenever we hear a church bell ringing 

We'll know you are there

To protect us from harm

We hear your precious singing 

We know you care

Because of you my little girl is my lucky charm

And for that reason You both will always be 

My angel by my side

A first kiss
A first touch
A first glance into those eyes
A first hug
A first for everything

That first kiss I really miss
That first touch again I want it so much
That first glance into your eyes
An imaginable lover in disguise
That first hug I cant wait to feel your arms
Warm and snug
The first for everything to me I want you to bring

A lasting impression
Is what i left
A loving affection
Is what i wish to get 

A lasting impression
Is what i brought to your mind
A lasting question
Why does God bless me with such a find

A lasting impression
Is what i bestow
A lasting gentleness
I love how much it grows

A lasting kindness
With great happiness
A lasting loveliness
Is what will show
And a bond so great that we will know

A lasting impression
I left on your heart
Is one I hold dearly
Always forever and never part

I watch you sleeping. So silent, so still, so perfect. An incredible sight to behold. My eyes fill in marvel; driving the longing for your speckled blues that dance in life with mine. Until morning breaks I'll cherish you. With the ever so quiet night as my partner in our secret adoration.

As of right now

I have nothing

But I do know one thing

That he is my everything

Being with him

Makes me feel like

A million bucks

Because he is my everything

And I know that I am his

That makes me feel amazing

Just to know that

Makes me wish I had wings

what makes me feel better

the only thing that does

Is knowing that he wants

To put a ring on my finger

And let the world know

That I am his

Time passes to quickly when im with you,

Time passes to slowly without you,

Your everything i need and the only one id ever wish for,

Im very lost without you,

cant help but need you even more,

Your my everything I thought id never have,

to good to be true through and through,

im so glad that im alive and with you,

I love it when you stroke my hair,

I love it that you take the time to show me you care,

Your gentle ways have me dreaming and im mesmorised by the magic that shines from within you.

Theres no ends to your talents,

Your one of a kind,

A rare treasure to find,

So who or what pointed us in the same direction?

I know the magic that flows from your beautiful being will take me on a journey that i wont want to end,

Together we can acheive perfection

You and I have forever together xxx

if you think that
you know yourself
then it means you
stopped learning.
why would you want
to do that?

i hear people say
'know thyself'
and it makes me
feel a bit

squeamish,
and uncomfortable.
not because i am
uncomfortable
with myself, but
because the thought
of knowing
everything there is
to know is sort of
a ridiculous one.
no one knows

everything
there is to know,
not even about
themselves. but
when you are dead
i imagine you might
know everything
about yourself
that ever was,

wouldn't you

think?

yeah,
i used to

think that i

knew myself,

too. don't

worry.it goes

away when

you wake up.

maybe set

the alarm.

then you can

live a more

full life.

have a good

one, whatever.

Most all of anything in life that we know that we've got,
Originally sprung from some sort or type of thought,
Now "anything" in life: can consist, by many o things ,
From eagles flying in the sky, to planetary rings,
And so, through out our lives, with ALL experience we gain,
are received by our senses, feelings, heart and emotion.
But no matter who you are, nor any places you may go,
The reason for this life we take in though, Beside our soul,
So "any & every-thing", in life by which is lived, all bound to-
gather Instantly since Born until Dead, "7his" the reason Being for the Life
that we had Lived...
