 Sep 2013 PoetWhoKnowIt
tread
I'm beginning to
hate your guts
And how you've
decided to
abandon me
For many lips
And many *****
To test, and taste
new hues of
*****.
I know this poem offended you when I put it up the first time. I believed you when you said it wasn't for these reasons, and I still do. but I have to admit that, in light of what you actually did, this is part of my vindictiveness towards it spiking outwards. you did what you did, and I will continue to tell people the truth of the matter. I will not gather forces against you.. I will not organize 'unfriendings' or try to force the morals of the occurrence down anyones throat.

But whoever asks why we didn't last will get the honest answer. They will get the other factors.. the fights, the lack of compromise, the different points in life.. but they will also hear about what you did and how it prevented us from moving past it. How it added that last toxic dose to what we had.
Whatever impression they get about you from the truth is your fault, and your fault only.

Goodbye, Amanda.

Perhaps, in a month, we'll make amends.
The duvet's in a ball and I'm falling into clean white sheets,she greets me,meets me halfway there.
I think I'll put my teddy bear, away
for now.
Poetry has many facets
It has not a nature
But many

The lines can be whimsical
Like soap bubbles floating midair
Words as serious as a jagged piece of stone
Sentences of a beating heart
Full of love and joy
Calming like vanilla and sugar
Fresh cookies in the air
Yet so heartfelt
Bleeding out passion
Previously unknown

Although poetry has many sides
And angles
All poetry has one thing in common
It is a brilliant diamond of the mortal imagination
shining in the darkest times of humanity
bringing light where there was none before.
wisdom
is an echo in the backgound
parting and combining
flames and flow
which make up all and everything
light
our  light
is the only thing
we can give
to anything
i just want to give you
the love that i have found
that energy that is everything
I took a shower today

And decided to wash you away

In your defense,

It wasn’t easy

But in mine,

It was eventually quite pleasing

Our memories no longer weigh me down

I silenced your ghost

He no longer makes a sound

Because just like “us”

He’s buried underground
Didn't I give the warning? The Danger-Lies-Ahead
and the Do Not Cross and the Turn Back Now
(if you know what's good for you)
but as I warn, I watch, and I prove myself right,
ignoring every warning, running
straight into coming traffic- and there was a  red light,
I remember there was, in retrospect
and looking at the wake of catastrophe,
I can at least say that I was correct.
perhaps you don't remember
those sempiternal moments
the ones that stalk our mind
perhaps you don't really care
who we were in our past
these sacred relics of our days
the remnants of desire—
now dissolved to naught

the onslaughts of memories
the plethoras of your smile
the wandering apparitions
of our time—
returns to haunt us now
breathing lies into our ear
pleading for sanctuary and yet
we deny them access;
encasing hearts in cement mix
and eyes behind cold steel

with a frantic brush of
tangled fingertips we
bid final farewell—
now even smiles from photographs
mock us with their twisted lips

- - -
"i am happy."

repeat 15 times.

repeat until your
throat hurts from
screaming it over
the sound of the
opposition fighting
for control over
your mind.

repeat 15 times more.

repeat until it
doesn't make sense
anymore.
You are an enchanting scent, my love.
An addicting fragrance
that I want to wear
all day
and night.
