#1
All My Tomorrows

I weave dreams with the same fingertips that have stroked your face
Wondering if maybe some of your magic will seep into my loom
And my tapestry will become a photo
Adorning the mantelpiece in a home
Where an angel with your eyes plays with the cat
And you (older, but no less handsome) gently prevent them from pulling on its tail

The logical part of my brain knows that in years to come
Your kisses won't be the same
But even with doses of your cynicism running through my veins,
My fairy tale heart tells me it's possible
(Though maybe it's unfair of me to talk of you cynicism like that-
You don't doubt our love any more than I do)
You're not the perfect romantic that any girl would want
If you were I imagine I'd tire of it before too long anyway
Besides, you're sweeter than any chocolates
And more beautiful than any rose you could ever give me

Two and a half years ago you were written into the story of my life
You shifted my focus- I became a moon orbiting you
And it might be my imagination, but all the stars seem to shine brighter now that you're here
We are still young, and call me naïve, but I dream of spending all my tomorrows in your arms

Journey's End
Omnia mutantur, nihil interit

'Everything changes, but nothing is truly lost."
though revolution rarely comes without a cost
stars shall burn while around one we turn
until our heavenly bodies adjourn
to a universal back hole in space
where all metaphysically fits in one place

------------------------------------------------------

Frozen Coffee

I rode a highway, paved
in pathways of addiction,
bathing in vodka nightmares
of a tearless soul who basked
in a bed of thorns,
while I withered in scorching
sunrises and sets,
becoming a fallen flower
petal, drenched in
red.

I never saw it coming,
letting go of fear
became an adventure
whilst mourning a frozen
heart upon a midsummer
night in June.

Staying sober became
a crusade within my soul,
kicking the bottle from
side to side on a scuffed
street of darkness.

Nibbling on an ink pen
in a little coffee shop,
I gaze upon a frozen heart,
birthed with familiar eyes
of a face I once knew,
watching them sipping coffee
in a way that only a sober soul
can understand....

journey's end

We are going high.
That day we were flying kites.
I remember so well.
That smile on your face.

It's like you were in a haze.
You are my guardian angel.
Without you I am nothing.
And with you I am saved.

You looked at me and said
you gonna kiss me?
I looked into those beautiful eyes
And kissed you.

Now I can't stop.
I love you dearly.
And this I know.
You love me to.

Then you said I have to go.
Because it's starting to snow.
But i'll be back agian.
Because this is not our.
Journey's end.

A Long Walk Home

We all have dreams
of places we've been
and things we want to do,
but what happens when
that is

forgotten?

Moments with lost love
become just a memory's memory or what might have been
a memory.

Or words unsaid die away
in their lack of existence;
in their tortured misuse.

Where do they go?

And what happens to them?
We all know feelings
get recycled and actions
get documented, but what
happens when a single rose
appears at your door with
the words I love you scribbled
on a card loosely tied to the stem?

Or the joy drives you to play
with everyone you meet for a
fabulous day? What happens to
those memories?

And where do they go?

-------------------------------------------------------

letting go of fear

Push down
Laughed at
Called names
Scared of

I'm scared of them.
Because the fear, turn to hate.
Of what people might do next.
They say you don't belong.

I always have bad dreams.
Of what they might do.
This I can no longer bare.
It feels like i'm in a nightmare.

But now i'm ready.
Ready to be letting go of fear.
This I know, for sure.
That if it weren't for people like that.
I wouldn't be here.

-------------------------------------------------------

The Lie ( it changes nothing)

"Nothing changes if nothing changes,"
the light and darkness just rearranges.
Voids in outer space remain the same
Avoid nothing, its another name
for a vacuum in the universe
between hell and heaven which came first
we all must live before we all die
Nothing ever changes is a lie.

Yes but I didn't think we would need it with only 7 poems. Clearly, we do need it. ;)

We'll it's not a bad thing because it just says that people write good and different poems :).

Yes but no one is voting - that is the problem.

7 poems - 8 votes... :(

That is always a problem :(. Maybe you should cut back to one poem person?

That doesn't really solve anything.

You guys will not believe this, but 2 more people voted... so now 10 votes... but it has now made 5 poems tied, all with 2 votes each! haha.
