Love Bursts In A Flash

A five-page missive
giving the definitions of love
and the beautiful quotes of it,
he wrote and sent it to a beauty.
Being unable to nose out a loving glance
he threw off his pen and stopped writing.

He typed a poem of a hundred lines,
detailing how an epic character,
his love should be and comparing her
to the matchless heroines of Shakespeare
and mailed the epistle to a damsel,
awaiting a positive message.
He clicked and opened the box daily
but found only calls for dating
from some nobile witches.

'No one turns her eyes on me',
murmuring, he walked to the suicide-spot
to fall headlong into the misty vale deep.
'Hi', greeted him a voice so sweet
and wanted him to jump into death together.
He pulled her back
and they made a dramatic turn about
to live in this earth enchanting.

The Poem I Am Writing Now

The poem I am writing now
does not know if it will be finished
it does not even know if it will be a poem -
it is slowly appearing line by line
and making its own meaning on the page-

Is it worth anything?
will anyone care?
I don't know -

The poem I am writing now
is just these lines
and these lines like all lines
are only small words
in a vast universe
that has long lived
and will probably longer live
without them.

Why then write these words now?

The poem I am writing now is saying,
'I am here now'.

But why should this mean anything to anyone else?

The poem I have written here
is not the poem I would have posted here
It is only the poem I am finishing now
a poem without great love or belief in itself.

The poem I am writing now
is written.

Turn The Page

mmm yeh yeh
a special smile
a certain touch
i never had a love that i loved so much
when i look back you're everywhere
turn the page
you were there

my very best friend
my summer day
my only someone to depend on when i've lost my way
you came and answered my every prayer
turn the page
you were there

what would i do if some strange morning
i opened my eyes to find you gone
i can't imagine how i would survive that
find another reason to go on

my one sure thing
my solid ground
all i ever wanted was the love that we found
when i look back you're everywhere
turn the page
you were there

what would i do if some strange morning
i opened my eyes to find you gone
i can't imagine how i would survive that
can't imagine how i would go on

a special smile
a certain touch
i never had a love that i loved so much
when i look back you're everywhere
turn the page
you were there

you came and answered my every prayer
turn the page
you were there

Luring Websites!

I'm a reserved man.
When I was in service,
my subordinates wouldn't
dare look at my face.
'Sinister-looking man'
only the men said of me.

Being a bored retiree,
I visited a website,
seeking messages for dating.
When I typed down my age,
they flashed a startling joke:
' Wow! Just born'; my heart broken.

I entered another site,
answered Psychology-tests
and they greeted me to have
all my erogenous zones thrilled
by the folks of epicurean tastes.
When they told me to send
a maiden message to a friend waiting,
I typed: ' Don't look at my empty purse'.
Her lightinng curt reply was:
' You funny old geezer! Wanna meet me? '

I switched over to another site.
They sent loads of profiles
of Mr.Quickfire, Longman, Footy Punch
and so on, wanting soulmate soon.
My God! I cried and clicked: 'Unsubscribe'.

A tragedy called love

The poem that I wrote, turned out to be an epic
The love that made me write it, is no more…

Falling into my eyes and Mixing along with my breath…
You were the one I bestowed my heart to…

Never did I let you cry…Not once did I let your face fall low…
You were the one I would die to save…

I laughed to make you smile, I smiled whenever I saw you…
Why did my smiles deceive me

True to my words I lived, I could never imagine this happening to me..
All my life I wanted to live with you…why did you have to leave me..

Jen’s poem

Jen’s poem
~
Her smile weakens my legs
Laughter brings out my own
The look deep in her eyes
Is like touching the heavens
A quiet little beauty of my own
The one I live to hold close
Whose joy I cherish daily
She is the girl I once dreamt of
The one who forgot my troubles
Now I am saying over a thousand
I love you and thank you’s
All greeted with a shy smile
Making me fall a little bit more
Unsteady on my feet
And when we laugh together
There is that look in her eye
That I’ll never forget or wish to
I may not reach the stars themselves
But I am walking in the heavens
In her eyes which I look into

Suicide

Suicide
I love that word
Suicide
it sounds nice
Suicide
it tastes like freedom
Suicide
nothin to live for
Suicide

Suicide
these wounds wont seem to heal
Suicide
this pain is just to real
Suicide
theres just to much that time cannot erase

Suicide
slice your wrist already
Suicide
hard and deep
Suicide
why am i still writing
Suicide
Goodbye

The 'budding' Poets

The 'budding' poets in early teens
Pen down here lyrics on love!
They write lines on ravishing beauty and craving eyes!

The 'budding' poets here flee from care
And embrace the images silhouetted
On the canvas of their dime-heroines of infatuations!

My past asks me, ' What about your lines in my times? '
I keep my eyes closed for some time and answer him,
' I was innocent of course, but a coward too then'.

I see the budding poets marching ahead
Enchanting the magic of sweet love and nectar
And I applaud them for their courage.

The Poem I Wrote/ As I Walked To Shul At Night

THE POEM I WROTE/ AS I WALKED TO SHUL AT NIGHT

The Poem I wrote
As I walked to Shul at night
Was the prayer that God
would help us survive and thrive
in this dark and difficult region
where Death and Destruction
are Demanded Daily
by those who would rather kill us
than love their own lives.

Here I Go Falling In Love Again

I swore Id never get involved
Said Id never ever fall in love
Cuz it hurt me once before
Would it hurt me ne more
Since then time has changed its different now..
Hypnotized by you and wondered how
I fell into your arms, and I was captured by your charm
Chorus:
And here I go...fallin in love again
(falling in love again..fallin in love again)
Here I go..falling in love again
(falling in love again..falling in love again)
Lost and scared as I can be
Cant help thinking of the mystery
That I shared in my first love,
Like a pair of mismatched gloves
And now youve found your way into my world
Touched the woman deep inside the girl
Can you tell me if its real?
Ive forgotten how to feel
Chours
Here I go falling in love again
The damage is already done
How can I ever turn my back on loving you
Here I go giving my all again
Im ready to show what I feel
If you will, take this loving to your heart...
And now youve found your way into my world
Touched the woman deep inside the girl
Can you tell me if its real?
Ive forgotten how to feel
Here I go falling in love again
The damage is already done
How can I ever turn my back on loving you
Here I go giving my all again
Im ready to show what I feel
If you will, take this loving to your heart...
Here I go....Im giving my heart again
(fallin in love again)
Seems like a battle I just cant win
(here I go..)
Oh Im in love and I cant win..(fallin in love again)
Ill be ready through thick and thin
(here I go..)
Im falling in love again, Im falling in love again
(falling in love again) Im falling in love again
(here I go...) here I go, here I go, catch me Im falling
(falling in love again)
Im lost without your love
Here I go..

Not Last

It was not last but first
When I tried to rest
Nothing succeeded like acid test
But something was coming out as best

There were positive signals
In batches I received their arrivals
Like Siberian cranes they landed
Smiled at me and befriended

It gave me all I wanted
All rules are to be flouted
How I wish it could be true
It may stay longer too

I got some indication
It had some relation
Otherwise why earth always wanted
Beautiful songs aired and chanted

It may shower and wet the earth
That feeling may remain till then death
Who may know the message behind?
I must try and earnestly find

Am I caged in beautiful place?
From where I daily see the beautiful face
If that is prison sentence offered
I will never dispute and differ

I wish to fly back and remain with
She is all that I want and don’t wish to crush the grip the teeth
I shall smile in open under sky
There is not much to left and ask why

Suicide Sweet Suicide

Suicide sweet suicide, I yearn to be near,
Yearn to be with you, but I dont out of fear,
Suicide sweet suicide, always on my mind,
Body cold and stiff, now my pain I've left behind,
Oh sweet suicide, please take me away,
R.I.P. to me, too bad I couldn't stay,
But the hurt was too much, tears I always weep,
Blade drags across my skin, this time I'm cutting deep,
Deep, deep, deep, deeper, than ever before,
Oh sweet suicide, don't make me suffer anymore,
Suicide sweet suicide, I'm escaping all of the harm,
And giving myself to you, so please accept me with open arms,

Graduation From A Love Poem

perhaps it is true
too much love can kill

in love poems too
got much

and now reading another love poem
gives me goose bumps

sometimes i think
making the love poem
and another love poem simply shows
your having not loved much
and your being not loved in return

love more and even if unrequited love some more
get up from a loving fall
cure that bruise
mend that broken heart
love still even when the world has learned the art of
indifference and hate more than any other

takes time to learn to do this
to know that love is giving and giving and giving
and then
after years of this kind of loving and giving
you will experience what i had gone through

now the love poem doesn't tickle anymore
nature does

the waves of the sea caressed by the hands of twilight
the moon nesting on the marsh
the grasses all wet with dew
the clouds pregnant with the blows of the wind
the gentle rain falling on the roof tops
the geese on their v-flight
the fledgling jumping from the nest to learn to fly

you see, this is what i am engrossed in now.
a beautiful world that i have not described well enough.

A Ode Poem To You

My mother gave me an ode poem, oh how I love that poem
The scene of her perfume on it, the picture of me in her arms
This letter I keep with me all the time, I love it so much I sleep with it under my pillow
To her nice hand writing, to the black ink she wrote in, she wrote until her ink went low

My poem is great, my poem is wonderful, to the white paper she wrote on it’s beautiful
To the green words of the title, my poem she gave me is the best
I love how she gave the lip stick print on the top of my poem, sad to say she's at rest
I will always love the poem she gave to me before she passed

To the words in the poem she gave me will always endure
Word by word my lovely poem is speaking to me gratefully
This ode poem was from my mom and for only me sincerely
I love my poem, oh how wonderful it can be

Its so wonderful do you want to read,
Take a look, take a look and you will see

I Sort Beauty, Until I Found Her

I sort beauty, until I found her
It was in the way she looked at me
True beauty is in her eyes
Her eyes melted my heart
Oh.. how she made my heart settle

I sort beauty, until I found her
It was in the way she was herself to me
True beauty means no pretence
Her natural self made me see beauty in her
Oh.. how she exposed a beautiful heart

I sort beauty, until I found her
It was in the way she accepted me
True beauty means true love
Her acts of love made me see love in her
Oh.. how she proved a lovely companion

I sort beauty, until I found her
It was in the way she talked about our future
True beauty means graceful talk
Her character showed a lady of grace
Oh.. how she'll be my child's graceful mother

I Wanted A Poem / Which Would Take Me Beyond Myself

I wanted a poem
Which would take me beyond myself
Which would make me feel the Beauty
Of this world
In a new way.

I wanted a poem
Whose music really was of the stars
A poem of the kind
That makes you feel alive
And know what you want
To live for in this world.

I wanted a poem
I would love and believe in
Always
And whenever I walked
Would be with me
To say over and over again.

I wanted you
But you did not want
Me.
The poem is someone else’s
And I am alone with my
Words.

I Once Looked At A Face

I once looked at a face
which in a single glance spoke volumes to me,
the traffic lights, the cars
the other people on the sidewalk
went by unnoticed

The glittering of her eyes
their colour and expression
her slender nose, her dimpled cheek
her lustrous dark hair
made a lasting impression

as if I was looking at an ideal form
but there was more to it than just that
and her sparkling laughter
the way that she threw her hair back
had an own significance

Yet more stunning was her actions
of which years later I am still trying
to decipher the meaning
as she walked up to me
flinging her arms around my neck

She drew my head down to hers
her perfume was enchanting
her lips sweet, soft and hot against mine
and there was a kind of electricity
while she kissed me

I was totally dumbfounded
while her laughter
was both sweet and serene
and she was a stranger to me
but extremely pretty

She looked at me
for another moment in excitement
with a smile on her lips
before she walked away
with swinging hips

When Love Turns Blue

(climie fisher)
Train whistles blowing
Whispers your name
I lie awake crying
To the midnight rain
Inside i slowly die
I read a hundred times
The letter from you
Life has no reason
When love turns to blue
So cold is the night wind
So dark are the days
So lonesome the feeling
Since you've gone away
In every song i hear
The message is so clear
They wrote it just for you
Life has no reason
When love turns to blue
So, say, say that you'll come back to me
I'm begging you baby
I'm tortured here without you
So say, say you feel the same way i do
Life has no reason
When love turns to blue
Ooh, ooh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
In every song i hear
The message is so clear
That they wrote it just for you
Life has no reason
When love turns to blue
So, say, say that you'll come back to me
I'm begging you baby
I'm tortured here without you
So say, say you feel the same way i do
Life has no reason
When love turns to blue
Oh, life has no reason
When love turns to blue

Oh Mr Yeats

Oh Yeats you wrote of this terrible beauty
And in your great poem you glorified death
But it's been proved that even suicide cases
At their last moment will struggle for breath.

How can you serve your Country by dying for it?
To me that's just a heroic suicide
Perhaps Ireland's greatest was Daniel O Connell
And it was of natural causes that he died.

Those men who led the nineteen sixteen rising
Were brave that from them can't be took away
They died because they fought for love of Ireland
But life for love too big a price to pay.

And tell me what is fame and what is glory?
So many people only live for fame
In hope that after death they'll be remembered
And that others will pay homage to their name.

Oh Mr Yeats you said in death there's beauty
But I cannot agree with what you've said
I would take wealth and fame whilst I'm still living
For such will be useless to me when I'm dead.

Two Word Lines

I write
my pain
and its
just another poem
its just
the same
all the heart ache that goes onto this page
only takes me back to the place where I await
behind the curtains of an empty stage
the pain
I write
I wrote this
I locked my own cage
I threw away the key to he that did see me rage
and still
I write
yes still
I fight
hoping that I might find something you feel
because these two word lines are just rhymes
when I say them back they aren't real
I'm sick and tired of talking about better times
forcing things like a relationship two people don't really want
a mum and dad staying together for the sake of the kids when the love is really gone.
Look at this back and see my two word lines
see my two word lines
are one.
