Amid the gangster thugs
Who rule the world

Lost in idealistic ideology

We look for love amid our
Fellow slaves

All so very indifferently


)(


Just for a moment of escape  

~~~~~~~

Just for a sense of transient peace


We die in midst each other's arms


Amid the gangster thugs who rule the world


The elections and the football games

& so it is



THE RICH  CELEB AND THE.      HOT BABE

the lonely people gazing on

(?-- as was decided --?)

There doesnt seem to be as many poems about cutting oneself

As there once was

Have people stopped doing it or only stopped writing about it ?

Does it matter !


The presidential candidates are all bobble-head toys pretending to be human

Should I pretend to  vote for one ?



If we read each others poems we will readily see

That no one
Is reading each other's poems


We have decided not to because (?)

What was that reason again ?


Oh yeah

I remember

)(

Death comes easy to the dying

To the living it hits hard


When our meager imitation  of love leads to pain

We say

PAIN IS A PART OF LOVE

( we have decided that it is okay to lie to one another )



The results of this decision have been horrific

Bobble head poets !

I was ******* Angelina Jolie one night

When Brad Pitt stumbles in upon us

Angelina yells out at him

BE GONE LOSER
IM WITH A REAL MAN NOW!

I get up and say

NO NO.

YOU TWO ARE LAWFULLY MARRIED


MY BAD !


)(


All the power of love we are!

Oh so little love we have !


But we are so full of understanding !!

Maybe love is not very powerfully

Or ..... (?)


Another day drifts by so meaninglessly

You told me to write whenever something inspired me
So I wrote about how you loved me
despite all my faults

And I've been spilling myself on these pages
Trying to find the right things to say
But now I'm drained empty

I tried writing about whats keeping me alive all this time
When i had every reason not to breathe
I ended up writing your name

You were my anchor
Holding me down through the night
When the storms hit the hardest

I promised I would never write about you
I never needed to immortalize someone who I would never forget

When i drifted away you pulled me closer
Having your hand to guide me
I find the light
Please dont leave me in the dark

Coming to terms
With things you don't like
Is part of living a grown up life.

The air isn’t crisp for November
but it’s still soup and brown bread,
shivering **** on the terrace.

It’s dark at half four, but it’s still
not fast to throw my coat on.
Stopping and smacking the closed library’s door.

The rain’s hissing off the new tarmac
making clouds that my breath won’t.
But it’s still no sun, and old makeup washed off.

There’s no slush,
but there’s brown leaf sludge.
There’s ten thousand prospective students on campus.

There’s a panic. An anticipation of exams
and Christmas shopping.
But it’s still quiet nights and used teabags.

Respect

Respect for everyone on here who acts so sweet,
Little acts of kindness everywhere,
Intelligent poetry and clever comments,
Supportive people and sometimes a kind private message.
Being on here restores my faith in humanity.
The people on here are beautiful, all in their own way.
Never I will say without flaws, we are all humans here.
No, we aren't without flaws, that us the best part,  we accept each others flaws.
Respect for everyone here who votes on my poetry.
I am happy with people like you.
And the nice comments on here, on my works and on the works of others, I am proud to be part of this community.
And to anyone who send me kind private messages, you are the best.
Respect for everyone on here, first of all for being human beings.
Secondly because you being so wonderful.
Respect and thank you
Not a poem but I want to say this, thank you everyone. Stay strong and respect

These butterflies
are telling I'm not ready
My mind is telling me slow and steady But I just want to love you
I just want to hold you
You give me feelings
I adore.

Tweet the lovely tune for which the other birds fall to
Let them fall for, the angel who’s a deadly stranger
