Secret Pain
Marian Jun 2014
Honeysuckle breezes
Drift across the summer air
Warm winds blow the trees
Mocking my inner struggle
My secret pain
The song of crickets and katydids
And the song of the broken robin
Console me during my time of sorrow
I am soothed while listening
To the lullaby of driftwood
Floating down the river on hot
Starlit evenings
I lay upon the grass watching the stars
Imagining that you're up there
Somewhere beyond the celestial maze of sky
The soft sound of harp strings
Brought a rush of healing to my soul
Perfect peace from up above
Only God could bring to my troubled heart
Broken hourglasses
The grains of sand float away on the breeze
Broken shards of glass is all that remains
Of the once beautiful hourglass
That once told time
It's like a clock when the hands have stopped
Right in the middle of striking the hour
And right at that point the pendulum stops...
The clock is dead and time is running out
Faster by the minutes that remain
And this entire poem reveals
My secret inner pain

**~Marian~
I Don't Know Whether This Makes Sense Or Not...
Just Started Typing And Well...Tada!!! ~~~~~~<3 :)
By The Way, This Is Dedicated To My Mom Who
Feels Very Depressed After Her Sister Joy Passed Away!!! ~~~<3
Hope You All It, Though!!! ~~~~<3

Pusah (Haiku)

You were a sweet dear,
You used to sit on my bed,
I wish you were here!

Spring (Trilonnet)
Marian Apr 2013
In Spring the tender green grass grows
And the sun shines so warm and bright
But it is not so hot at dawn.

Sweet tall reeds which tickle my toes,
And I look at the sun's bright light;
Which casts it's shadows on my lawn.

I love the fragrance of the rose
Which unfurls it's petals at Night
When the curtain of day is drawn.

I love the creek that sings and flows
It creates such a pretty sight,
That is as graceful as a fawn.

So this is why I always sing,
To welcome back the dear sweet Spring.

*~Marian~
This is my first Trilonnet! :O The rhyming pattern used is: abc abc abc abc dd and it's eight syllables every line. See: http://www.shadowpoetry.com/resources/wip/trilonnet.html

Illusions Part II
Marian May 2013
There's a girl in the mirror
This time she looks like me
She has tears on her cheeks
And her heart is broken
She has brown hair
And those blue eyes
And fair skin
I can see her clearly
She is crying. . .Even harder
She cannot stop
Her heart is broken
And I can relate
But all we are
Is illusions
We are heartbroken
Illusions
Crying our broken hearts

Poetess's Block
Marian May 2013
Ready to write something
But nothing comes to my mind
As I look out at the rain
Which makes me feel kind of dismal
I try to think of something to write
But nothing comes to my mind
It is hard for me to write
Because each time the lightening
Brightens up the room
And the thunder rumbles
I cringe
I do

*~Marian~
I am now entering into Poetess's block. Anyone want to join me?? ;) ~<3
Marian Apr 2013
It is impossible to know what to say
It is impossible to forget
It is impossible to heal
Our hearts that are broken
But with God
It is possible to be comforted
It is possible to feel peace
It is possible to forgive
It is still impossible to forget
It is possible to heal!
But it takes time.



~Marian~
Written for those who were at the Boston Marathon. They all have my love, and heartfelt sympathies, and prayers. May God be with them during this sad and heartbreaking time!! ~</3

I Picked Up A Card
Marian May 2013
I picked up a card just awhile ago
That was lying on our Living Room floor
Right beside our couch
I was surprised when I saw
It had nine red hearts on it
With the number 9
It's next to me now
On the bed

*~Marian~
Inspired by my sweetest big sister, AdReIsHkA MoOnLiGht!!! I shall try my best not to write anything dark and depressing! At least for a good while!!! Thank you, AdREiShKa dear!!! :) ~<3

Marian Jun 2013
I finally stopped
And sat down beside
Lots of honeysuckles
And pulled some sprigs
Off and stuffed them in my pouch
Along with some wild berries
That I found
So that I wouldn't have to stop
But keep on
Going*

~Marian~
I went along with my Dad to the dump today and saw a
path so I was inspired to write these poems! :) :P ~<3

I reached a path
With streams I had to cross

To eat some berries
And drink the water from the creek
And to wash my sweaty face
With it's coolness

But
Keep on
Going!

As the rain poured outside our tent
And the lightening flashed brilliantly
I wasn't scared to ask that boy:
"Who are you?"
He replied:
"I hope to be your friend!"
At this I jumped up and sat beside him
I answered and said with a smile:
"Looks like you already are!"
He then asked me:
"Why are you here?"
I replied:
"To find out how long and far
This path goes. I happened to
Find it yesterday and I've
Been traveling here since then!"
This time he didn't reply
He was busy writing in a notebook
So I asked:
"What are you writing?"
His reply was:
"Songs."
I replied:
"So you're a songwriter?"
He said:
"Yeah!"

For My Mom ♥
Marian Jul 2014
I know it's belated
But I'd still just like to say
That I love you and I wish you
A Happy Mother's day
Mother's day may have already passed
Oh, how very true
But Mother's day can be everyday
Especially for a mother like you
I see how hard you have to work
I can sense your inner pain
But if you come to me I will make it better
And I will release your hurt into the rain
I will mend your broken wings
I will mend your heart with glue
So you can fly once again
And see the world anew
Weeping may endure for a time
But joy is constantly near
You just have to reach out and touch it
And you will feel happier, my dear
I can only hope my words console
The raw pain that is fresh and new
When you wake up tomorrow don't forget what I've said
And just remember that no matter what I will always love you

*~Marian~
Dedicated To My Mom, Hilda!! :) ♥
Please Enjoy This Poem!!! :) ♥♥♥♥

For Lady Jane (Villanelle)
Marian May 2014
Your big round eyes stared lovingly at me
I felt a spark of love for you at first sight
You keep me company whenever I am lonely

Even when you act naughty
I could never be mad try as I might
Your big round eyes stared lovingly at me

Your fur is the color of a moonlit sea
Your eyes like glowing emeralds at night
You keep me company whenever I am lonely

You're the inspiration for my poetry
Almost every poem I write
Your big round eyes stared lovingly at me

Right now you are sleeping upon my knee
Dreaming peacefully, eyes closed tight
You keep me company whenever I am lonely

When first you opened your eyes gently
Your big round eyes stared lovingly at me
I felt a spark of love for you at first sight
You keep me company whenever I am lonely

*~Marian~
