I Like To Write Poetry Stories of Experiences

When someone breaks your heart, leaves you suffering....... Then you come to me, my dear, my door is open and will always be open to you……You don't need me right now, you will find many people that will like you (love you...

45 minutes…

It seems so long

Stopping at every station but yet I’m on an express train

Seeing new faces, hearing new sounds

Broadway Junction…

I look around at the full train cart, people standing people sitting

I close my...

Hey,
Okay so i write poetry and i've been wanting to share some with open minded people, i'd also like to just talk and get to know different people... I've only just "got with the program" so i don't have anyfriends :/

about 18 months ago I got the urge to write poetry. I guess it had been sitting in the back of my mind for longer than that but needed a trigger to set it off. Well that happened about 4-5 years ago in the form of my midlife crisis...

You never quite know the meaning of pain until a specific experience defines it.
For instance, we are often led to believe that positive thoughts will mask that pain permanently. How wrong we are indeed.

I have discovered lately the...

No I don't think I've ever stopped feeling,
Even when the animals came to tame me,
Brought gifts of new sounds made by mouths to fear,
No I don't make eye contact with just anyone,
Prefer looking over shoulders, doesn't mean I'm not...

With power unlimited
at the start of day

I would ride time
in the glory of the rays

To see into life
past, present, and to come

Wipe the tears from hurt eyes
help the lame to run

Brighten the weary
bring gladness and joy

So the...

seven dreams
since I
held your gaze

seven dreams
since I
walked away

seven dreams
and I
feel the same

seven dreams
and I
have lost you

seven dreams
and I
am thinking of you

seven dreams
I must have
lost you

How do i deal with this
I'm screaming inside my head
Too many tough choices
I want to hide instead

But I've been running for too long
From things I refuse to see
I no longer know who I am
I'm no longer me

When did this happen
I can't...

Let's get out our shadows and simply play.
We can be silly and laugh the day away.
We can do goofy dance moves and really show our stuff.
We can even take off our clothes and play in the buff.
Let's light some candles so our...

A loneliness so deep that few can understand

A fear so strong that it chains me to a life I hate

Someone said "A life of quiet desperation"

A life that will quietly kill my soul and leave a shell of a person in it's wake.

I was...

Everyday i wake up with a grief...
I try to vanish all those memories cause i am not able to keep...
Everyday i hear the shrieks of my lost past...
A silent noise in my breath, a disloyalty in beats of my heart...
I can see myself...

Confused and lonely

That is how I fee today

Wondering at myself

And wondering how it came to be this way?

I cannot put my finger on anything, really

Restless and wanting more

More of a life than I have now

How did it get this way...

It is a sad thing to go against yourself

To please a stranger and to deny your own true self

It only brings you pain

I cannot live that way

Those choices come back to haunt you

The stranger moves on, unaware of how you compromised...

One guy gone, another cat too
Three guys gone, three cats now
Eight guys gone, now I'm over city limit
twenty guys gone, now i'v got strays
thirty guys gone, now i'm evicted

I didn't like it even then
So long ago but-
Nobody's perfect I
told myself.

Then we decided
to get married-
not a real proposal
but it would do.

Does he love me?
I wondered...he
hasn't said as much
but he must.

We walked the aisle...

I realized what it means to be human.
We're all here right now, in this moment,
a young species within the cosmos,
just trying to make its way forward through time and space,
sometimes gliding (as if on pockets of air),
sometimes...

Life is too short to wake up with regrets.

Be thankful for the nights that have turned into mornings,
The friends that have turned into family,
And the dreams that have turned into reality.

Smile like you have never cried,
Fight like...

The zest for life still burns inside me, the desire to do the same things,
but now they look on me differently, abandonment carelessly stings.
The game is now done and played, even though there still is no score
I know I won’t be...

This pain in my heart

I can't take it

I'm playing my part

Though I fake it

No one sees through this mask of mine

Though it's broken and torn I know

The dark shadow I cast is fine

From white to red I turned the snow

You...
