The Flower
Brogan Dinsdale Jul 2010
As each petal opens
Upon her face
Anxiety pulses through
Revealing a tale
Of long lost
Memories
Dreams
And fears
Secretes entwined
Set free
Another petal opens
Raindrops fall
Just like the tears
Washing away
Each of her fears
Slowly split open
Grown from a seed
Risen up through the
Darkness
Phenomenal
Beauty appears

Great Wall of China
Brogan Dinsdale Jul 2010
My
      Great
wall of
     china
Towering
     25 feet
high                                                  
   To stop
the rain from
        Pouring
   To stop
the snow
    From   falling
    From the
  Deceitful
sky
  Each brick
        A  memory
A faithless
     Lie Nobody can
Pass through…
    My Great wall
Of China
Will stand till
I die.

Pain Vs. Paper
Brogan Dinsdale Jun 2010
I do not scratch my anger into My skin
I pour it onto
My paper
anger can’t
win.

I do not slice sadness into My arm
the sadness
will cause
no more
harm.

I won’t show My pain the bottom of the glass
I am wise
I know the
pain will
pass.

I won’t let rage make Me pop a pill
but put pen
to paper
that I
will.

Eclipse Of Love
Brogan Dinsdale Jun 2010
Like the stars of the night must fade away
And so sure it is, the sun will be gone at the end of the day
In your arms, this soul can no longer stay
Eyes seeking mine, like light in the dark
As the hands of time pull our fingers apart...
Your skin cries out for my touch,
Longingly I see you waiting in love...
To be touched, by nothing but the bittersweet air, only,
Only, if our sun and moon, danced side by side
In night and day and day and night
The eclipse of love, rare but true
A heart beat too many, from me and you
Each soul can await a thousand lives
To feel, to see, to grasp, if only for a second
This indescribable  
Eclipse of love,
As I stand upon the ground, knowing
Our hearts a world apart
Releasing your touch,
The eclipse of love
Is too impossibly, far from  us.

— The End —
