JenInk - Hello Poetry

Never seen Eyes more true, Until one day I rested mine on you. Knew your smile, Your voice, Your touch... Before I met you That faithful day. If this is love, Then I never Knew what it was Before. If this isn't right, I don't care, I never Wish it to end, Only for it to Begin. To pretend tonight That you think of me too, And trust deep down In a story of love.

Story of Love

Never seen Eyes more true, Until one day I rested mine on you. Knew your smile, Your voice, Your touch... Before I met you That faithful day. If this is love, Then I never Knew what it was Before. If this isn't right, I don't care, I never Wish it to end, Only for it to Begin. To pretend tonight That you think of me too, And trust deep down In a story of love.

Heard a familiar song, As sleep beckoned once more Only to close the door At the the crossing Where I find you, Obscure. Drifted away to sleep... As it fell upon me, I heard your voice so clearly, Looked at your face, But there isn't a trace To be found, Familiar sound, Something isn't clear. Something doesn't compute. A new day beckons, Awaken, Rise up, Live it. A sound in the crowd, A face takes hold, Merely a figment Of my daydreams and worst dreams, Come back to this life. I could hold your hand, If only I could find it, Finding you lost, On the Verge Of something new...

Verge (Of something new)

Heard a familiar song, As sleep beckoned once more Only to close the door At the the crossing Where I find you, Obscure. Drifted away to sleep... As it fell upon me, I heard your voice so clearly, Looked at your face, But there isn't a trace To be found, Familiar sound, Something isn't clear. Something doesn't compute. A new day beckons, Awaken, Rise up, Live it. A sound in the crowd, A face takes hold, Merely a figment Of my daydreams and worst dreams, Come back to this life. I could hold your hand, If only I could find it, Finding you lost, On the Verge Of something new...

The ocean casts cerulean Its eyes a fatigued gaze Paralyzed in your presence Concealed and unscathed On the surface... All the while, My feelings drown in Your waves, Reaching out to touch you... Realizing I'm powerless... Staring up at your slate sun. You've been there by my side This whole time. I pray only that you do not Leave me to catch Your falling embers When you're gone. I pray that one day We'll be with each other always. I pray that I don't have to wait Any more months or years To kiss you, And for it to be real. I ask God why tonight, And tomorrow I'll sit by your side As if nothing ever changed. Long-suffering in this hidden truth, Powerless to say a word. The reality is my soul is saddened That you are not here with me now, All I can do is dream of you, A smile on your face. I'll see you tomorrow, And you might never Know what I feel for you.

Cerulean

He wondered what it would be like To be water, Flowing through the rocks and reefs, Nothing could bind him, Nothing to harm him underneath, within, the soul weeps. There was once a civil war, And he was a soldier Barely hanging on to life, Kept going through the smoke-fire-pain Love lost, lost his love in the rain. Dropped to his knees and asked God why, He would take away the one thing he was living for. His dear love was the only reason he'd Awaken each day and dream each night- Picturing how happy they would be Kept him moving still. God looked down on the man and said, "None of us get to choose when or how, or what we lose." The soldier placed one foot in front of the other On solid ground And found the strength to stand, Until one day he'd rest his head In a place where angels sing And see his true love's face And feel her in his embrace. Now all that's left on this earth Tells just a piece of their story, Found one day buried deep In the ground, A wedding ring engraved with the words, "Forever Love..."

I hear you... Voice in the dark Heart of my heart. Settle in this fold. Out of the cold, One day we'll be old. Comforting warmth, Out of the rain, Listening to it again. Your arms surround All of me in your hold. Something tells me, You'd never Abandon. Heart of my heart. Settle in this fold. Never to grow cold.

Heart of my heart.

It's the time of year That tears can Make a stream Under your left eye, Counting the minutes, haunting memories Visit like drafts Coming from the edges Of a window when October smiles its Wide grin of Oranges and lemons And laughs while You shiver And now I sit and wonder Solemnly to myself What it would be like In (your) arms one day... Would long-past memories Be erased? To greet us with a warm embrace? I sit here and wonder About you

I was walking in opaque In a mist of blurred lines, On the trail Of something Of someone not meant to find. In that moment, I stood on the dirt, And looked up through the fog To see through the clues That led me to resolve, Then to you. I was lost in a maze with no exit. Now I'm face to face With another, Never meant to uncover. From day one We were never meant To know each other. Standing on the abstract Verge of something... Colors merge in my mind, All was obscured And now I can see But not feel. And all along I was never meant to Uncover you. So many colors blend, Blurring the truth And I'll never See through to you.

Cold can be so warm, On the outside of truth Crashed below the water Heavy and sunk To the bottom so far, so far From where The edge scrapes life Underneath disguise Took hold Of temporary Youth Reflection holds the truth It is so cold, In open air Above the pool Where bodies swim Say hello Meet and embrace In the blue There is love, up high Reaching Reciting What you believe Love under the surface, Scratched away To find proof On the outside of truth

Outside of Truth

It's hard to let go and hold on Let go for a little while... Dangling from a star In ebony space Invisible, Dangling Hanging on to how it feels Drowned in incandescence Lost in the void Lost in the void Touched your fingertip Before floating away Oh no Where did you go Oh no Found yourself, The tip of where You can't see Or ever go Lost in the void Lost in the void Always dangling there Waiting for a glimpse Of something far off, Galactic Still hanging on, Dangling, Crystalline trellis Covered head to toe With heavenly glow Danced in Jupiter's rain Under Callisto's light And nothing could compare Shining with a million colors The whole time Dangling Lost in the void Lost in the void

So, clear to see Who you want to be, It can all be seen Channeling. Take a breath In-and-out, Don't forget Not to swallow Salt water, When you're On the surface Shallow. Everything is washed over, Bones are hollow, Made of starfish Also known as Asteroids, Their radiating arms Fill colorless depths with Magnificent sights. Everything eventually fades, To grow anew In an endless cycle, Seaweed holds fast To rusty anchors Buried and sunken Down In desolate places. A final resting place for saints, And sinners... They once sat on a ship and Ate mackerel for dinner. Fish now rise up to The surface of a vessel Alive on tranquil seas, And life continues On as it does naturally, With starfish wonders And miracles, Ships sail and sink Just as we do.
