5 minute poetry - Page 101

you want this
its in your eyes
so whats your wish?
no need for lies

i'm all you need
all your darkest
deepest greeds
starcrossed

but you don't want
a poems song
the rages haunt
this path your on

so beat me down
and do your worst
I'll wear that gown
as we rehearsed

and live your life
in fantastic ways
while those in strife
count the days

until this masquerade
of pointless paper slips
until this trite tirade
of souls sold for tips

is washed away
as this lifes joy
until that day
I'm your rented boy

An eternal ticking...
The numbers jump ahead, one by one.
An old TV sits, solitary, in a darkened room.
A dozen channels like winter,
Cold and white--
Taking up the space
Where a dozen familiar faces
Had once been to welcome me.

I had it written down
I tacked it on the wall
Underlined and arrowed
I won't forget this

Next thing I remember
Walking in the sunlight
I reach in my pocket
It's not there

All that time and it's not there!
Absent minded, I forgot it again...

Written because I had a poem I was going to bring and type up, but I forgot it. >.< I hate it when that happens...

nurtured silence out of bounds
a devil smiles at his finds
corrupted in the morning
a cup of something dark as I
now sit, and read aloud
your romantic resume

a foot or more outside these lines
and someones going to put me down
try, my love to look away
rubberneckers come this way
and see a train wreck built from me
see my romantic resume

so many hers, so little joy
and all these airs and clever ploys
awake so long that I'm not tired
in the night, alone and wired
resting in another life
and typing up my resume

qualified to die alone
qualities I've never shown
a vanity thats overblown
considering the view
considering its you
reading through my resume

I'll take the job so long as this
intention never leaves your lips
as slowly fall our days in line
trying hard to still decline
those eager young new applicants
with sparkling resumes

Like a blue flag
Across the cloud sparse sky
Her dress fluttered in the wind
One of two, a creature born
Her other self raced
Across the sun-soaked grass
Same rays that illuminate
Her wind torn hair
Her carriage of brown
Not a thing of the earth
But an airy thing
With wind pulled wings
Two as one, the only thought

To finish, to win

Not even Apollo
With his fiery steed
Can outrun them
Soon all melts but
The blue sky
The white clouds
The dust plains
Eyes wild, mane and hair tangle
Under the yellow star they soar

To finish, to win.

I miss BMG!
I do, I really do
we used to chat, and now I'm blue
because shes not around

I MISS YOU WHY WON"T YOU TALK TO ME AAARRGGH!

*cough*

............................................

words sent as unaimed sorrow
no target save forgiveness
and rest upon the ears of loathing
and find a home without...

they take and tear and won't relent
oh spiteful price of openness
mated to blind ignorance
a child born of fear

Come fly with me, so we can see
All there is and all that lives
On this green earth, endless worth
and endless sights, more than life
can be seen while we file away
the days gone by, and I sigh,
with the one beside me naught
but a shade, for the truth is gone,
it's now only in song, for my
only inspiration isn't here, but
is away, and will be back again...
Someday.

Author's note: That poem hardly makes any sense, huh?

Idolized moon
Acheronian,
Empty...
Inconstant its visage.
It's all a facade.

I wrote this while waiting for my sister at a university. For some it's not done, for other's it is. I'll let you decide if it is.

A rainbow colored flag
No purpose to most
Just sitting there, in the window
It's bright, but only catches glances
As the people walk by
Every day life is prudent
Except for one little girl
Whos sits there, the colors
Held in her grey eyes
Wondering, musing
Asking where and why
How and when
What was is made for?
