Wings Were Clipped
Poetic T Feb 2018
I could clip the wings of angels.
           but still they would think
that heaven was a place to step upon.

When every god is deceased,
            and fact becomes reality .
                      Some still grasp at straws.

*"We are awoken no longer slumbering  in denial,

Rumours Corrupted
Poetic T Feb 2018
Rumours fly like dead carcasses,
             infecting those who they land upon.

But no one realizes that they were bitten, corrupted
             burrowing beneath conscious thought.

Seeding the larvae of what would seed within
            the canals of corrupted reflections.

Never realising that every thought was laid
            well before they knew and hatched diseased.
Poetic T Feb 2018
A man of knowledge
    can be learnt, even though taught.
For the teacher who
           has forgotten there lessons,
Must learn new ways from the pupil..
Poetic T Feb 2018
The anchor that never sinks
            but keeps the family in one place.

                       Never sinking
but one that keeps you all together
                  through the rough times

Never drifting
                 but kept you anchored to one place
and safe in the turbulent times.
Poetic T Feb 2018
Unravelling as we were woven together,
she was whole,
                               but I was losing strands
of conscious motions.  

Even though I was fraying,
       she wound her strength
around my insecurities, making us stronger.
              As a whole instead of two separate values.

Love has a way of holding two parts together,
                     even though we may unravel.
Together we bond making us stronger
              than anything separate, we are one love.
Poetic T Feb 2018
Un-enlightenment  was the trading
of collected ignorance that was sewn
on the eyes of so many individuals,
collecting in a mentality of blind illiteracy.

Detachment from the realities that were
shown before, but spectacles of onyx
kept them from seeing reality and all they
responded to was the illusion of there hearing.

Contagions were ingested within the falsity
of words collecting in mirages of there own.
But every consultation was a verse in reversed
wording collecting the meaning in other manners.
Poetic T Feb 2018
I'm a shallow pond of emptiness,
        but stones were pulled out
before this evaporation of self
                   was but a hollow echo.

Those stones were skimmed on
           the surfaces of others waters,
but where greeted as they sank beneath
              settling within the depths.

I was a collected in the pools of many,
        even though I faded the stones
of myself were collected in others.
                           they never evaporated.

"When one evaporates,
          our condensation will gather within others,

      
*"Rocks sometimes never dry but sink below others pools.

Sentiment Thats Breathed
Poetic T Feb 2018
Breathless fragrances,
              aromas fading
beyond there time running out.

                             But we will always
expel the vapours of our emotions.
        And others will exhale upon our fading.

Just because you cant taste every
                   sentiment that's breathed,
       were all moving away, just moments fading.

When Sentences End
Poetic T Feb 2018
Though the sentence may end,
                       the ink carries on.
The cartridge seems vacant of
                                    wanton metaphors.

Exhibiting reflections on  soiled paper cups,
                wanting to be filled
with drinkable dictations of
                              what is spelt out in stains.

But I spilt that void long ago,
                          blemishing my shirt
with what meant to be drank upon.
        A decolouration of meaning read differently.

Standing Ones Ground
Poetic T Feb 2018
A footstep stood
is better than a step back.
We may leave a deeper print,
but it shows others
                    that's its not easily filled.

And that those that try to fill it,
              have lot more to prove


than the reason of its depth..

Shell Of My Former Self
Poetic T Feb 2018
I was washed up on your shores
thinking you were serine blanket
                      that would caress me.

But you were more like a breeze
               gently eroding me before
I knew I was less than I was before.

You shaped me into a figure that
was useful eroding me inwards
             till I was a shell of my former self.

When I ever listened within,
     I only heard your voice washing
                           in waves seducing my mind.

She Hung Me Tightly
Poetic T Feb 2018
She was the noose that
       I'd hang myself from,
I would put the snare of
        her heart around my throat.

Her words would caress my
       windpipe strangling
me with loves whispers,
              suffocating me gently.

But words were hard to speak
        when she was collecting tightly
around my breath.
I couldn't be with her as I was suffocating,
                                 my actions she hung me from.

Relinquishing My Past
Poetic T Feb 2018
Disembarking on the shores
                   of roadside curbs,
I look at the distance
of my eloping footsteps.

          Emigrating from that place
now in wishful forgetfulness.
But my anchor fell,  
                 and for now I have arrived.

Sulphuric Glares
Poetic T Feb 2018
Corroded glares emaciate
the surroundings, all that
was is now woven in despair.

The sadness enveloped in
tired souls painting around
this tide of decaying vision.

But within this sulphuric
black look, suffocating any
emotion looking within.

*"Beauty is a corruption,
                          of our egos,

I Was A Message
Poetic T Feb 2018
I was but a message  of love
   floating in an ocean of loneliness,
and then I washed upon your shores.

You read upon this message
                       with every grain.
A moment of our lives has
    passed together.

And love was the moments
        waves caressed upon our hearts.
I was a message and it read,
                                    *"I LOVE YOU,

Walls Incase Our Freedoms
Poetic T Feb 2018
When we are surrounded
                   by many walls.

And there is only a window,
                  It can lead to a fall.

Start with a brick and talk
                  through every one.

And eventually there will be
                 a door to our freedom.

Pain Hidden Beneath
Poetic T Feb 2018
I'm buried within the madness
       that collects within every
                                       breath...
Realizing that with ever exhalation
that it feels like your last weave.
But its not, its just another motion
of an illness that others never see.

But judge,
            I have fibromyalgia.
And every breath is woven in pain.

Weaving What The Eyes See
Poetic T Feb 2018
I was woven in the collection
of your weaving. But was I the
illegitimate thread of so many
stitches that were woven incorrectly.

But within the faults,weren't there
patterns that were unique to the fashion
of what were meant as perfection.
But was perfection diluted beyond sight.

Separate From Our Thoughts
Poetic T Feb 2018
Energetic particles were throw around,
                younger years blending us
                                 into others orbit.
But we never followed,
        as others were separate from our thought.
When we collected on others echoes.

All fell beneath the floors of gapping indiscretions,
                                                  ­ but when they looked,
they viewed the expiration dates of their words.

Idiots Are Like Coffee
Poetic T Feb 2018
Idiots are like coffee,
               they seem ok.

But then,
beneath the surface
           their rank, and too weak.

The Wolf & The Sheep
Poetic T Feb 2018
When the wolf saw the sheep
             the sheep asked why me,
why not those over there.

The wolf replied I have no need
          of explanation for your worries,
they are short lived as is your breath.

The sheep asked again as the wolfs
         teeth caressed it throat,
Loosing gently it replied.

*"Death is a petal on a flower of life,
               and yours has fallen to me,

The Morbidity Of Life
Poetic T Feb 2018
The morbidity of life is exhumed
everyday of our awaking breath.
For when will this ceaseless existence
grant upon my eyes the closure,
that will vindicate that its fully proven.

Will I ever be a portrait of death,
hanging silently beyond my view.
But alas I still sense the ambiance
of every pilgrimage. This cradle
that I need to decline into oblivion.

I never asked to be exhumed from
the ruination of silence. I was embedded
beyond peace, but then entombed
within this mortal coil,
collecting more pain than ever in death.
Feb 2018 · 452
Collect Your Memories
Poetic T Feb 2018
We are each a second of existence,
Living, feeling  then death.

We are each a moment in breath,
exhaling beyond our lifetime.

We are each a footstep in time,
and sometimes they remain.

Collect your memories
          and realize
that were but a grain in the time
of a universe
                     of awe and inspiration.
Feb 2018 · 951
She Was My Anchor
Poetic T Feb 2018
A mother is our anchor
       on life, always there for us.
And when they sink,
          we seem to drift
a little deeper in the water.
Feb 2018 · 525
Swallowing You Gently
Poetic T Feb 2018
Death is never a rough sea
             its an ocean of placid waves
  enticing you deeper beyond you strength.

And when it falters,
  it will kiss you with abundant waves
to comfort you in sullen breaths of eternity.

You will be silent underneath
                        the noise of above
only seeing the darkness swallowing  you below..

The Age Of Harmony
Poetic T Feb 2018
We were divided
      never seeing beneath the layers
of our differences not realizing
           its what made us human.

Race, we ran a good one,
         but in everyone there is losers.
Most were capable of pacing themselves,
but someone needs to win??
                                  
"Why,

Why couldn't we cross the line together,
           for so long
we all saw the line differently.
Some beyond a realistic reaching

Faith was a moment of
                contradictory morality,
following paths of  words long since dead
but others never followed there own rules.

We found faith in each other,
       we were our own creations.
              No longer slaves of another's faded memory  
morality was embedded within us.

Gender was woven in the eyes
of those who's hearts were tagged
               beyond there wishes.
We love whoever's eyes we gaze upon.

We dip in shallow waters of emotions,
              whoever's feeling wash up
we cant help but be the shore
       that we fall upon, love is blind.
The Age of harmony is upon us, we just have to get past the rough waves
Feb 2018 · 326
Asking For Others Pain
Poetic T Feb 2018
Woven on sheets between palms
                   were the wishes of deaf ears.
We may ask for many things,
but only we are the bearers
                 of our own aspirations.
          Never do we ask for that which isn't right.
Feb 2018 · 244
And The Pen Was Before Man
Poetic T Feb 2018
Without a hand to wield it,
              creation is just a silent voice
never written down.

For without man, the words aren't understood.
                  So if the pen came first,
how could man write life down,
                         as he was after its creation.
Feb 2018 · 497
Never Reading You Correctly
Poetic T Feb 2018
I had entangled within her verses
                    that were never totally coherent
upon every verse.
               She spelt it in dyslexic
      dramatization  that I never understood.

We were meant to spell every movement,
                but we tripped over every emotion,
                and you were the thorn within me.
We never understood each others sentiment.
Feb 2018 · 522
Guardain Angel Mistake
Poetic T Feb 2018
I was clipped at birth,
         never meant to fly..
Only to crawl before I walked.

Shamed to crawl on the filth
        of those below me..
never wording, only splurging nonsense.

But when I learn to crawl,
        I leant morality.
Morality was my chain clinging closely.

And I learnt I fell from nowhere,
             to a point of a momently breath.

Glad that l lived in the now,
                not the extinguished breath
of what had already faded to nothingness.
Poetic T Feb 2018
Every thought is
         my guardian angel,
when I ever think  
of contradictory roads..

I walk upon the ropes of
           life's consciences
learning that every motion
is my eventual life line or fall.

My principles of morality
       will echo on every verse of
my life. Its a yes or no or maybe..
Feb 2018 · 433
Weaker Link
Poetic T Feb 2018
We're only as weak
as the chain
                that holds us together.

For what ever is brittle makes us weaker
                                 and it is better to break,
being  reformed in a more stronger form.

Never let others be your weak link,
                           let them break.
    And you become stronger than you were before.
Feb 2018 · 267
You Swallow Only Yourself
Poetic T Feb 2018
Make me an enemy
and ill whisper praise
upon your corroding
                           morality.

Even though I smile,
           its an illusion
of my fermenting anger.
    Always boiling beneath a surface.

I know you think your
            the centre of everything,
but your a black hole of everything
                     that swallows you beneath.
Feb 2018 · 331
A Sky Of A Million Stars
Poetic T Feb 2018
I'm memorized by the echo
                         of your passing,
burning so brightly before
            you were extinguished.

We all have a moment to burn,
                      before we extinguish.
But were always brightest before we fade.

Nevertheless we have a singular moment
                        to burn for those
                 that need us before we fade gently.

Were all stars fading,
             but some keep us burning longer
just because of there words.

               Where here because of them,
even though they have faded.
              They still illuminate us brightly.
Feb 2018 · 303
A Distinct Taste
Poetic T Feb 2018
Tasting his lips,
              distinct like sour milk.
She tasted his undeserved
aroma of ill fated discretion.

Never trust one
who tastes like
              wilted moments,
only those of fresh blossomed intentions.
Feb 2018 · 257
Imagery On Harmonic Waves
Poetic T Feb 2018
Imaginings influenced
       by cords of a harmony
we hang our emotions over.

Symbolism of ever melody
           breaths on our reflections
of the days musing
Poetic T Feb 2018
We could never be that poster couple
              so we ripped it up...
Cardboard cut-out wannabes.

We were the arguing every
                          4 minutes kind of love,
Never knowing what we would be.

From the moment of our mornings,
           we each wondered were we
      hurricanes in teacups or soft breezes.

We were never going be soppy smiles
            more like smiles
                and words that threw our
true emotions out there.

Life`s True Facts
Poetic T Feb 2018
I awoke one morning in
             youthful gazes
Seeing life was not of any creation
but of chaos.
                   And it was beautiful.

For I realized that what was before
           my eyes wasn't momentary
it was a moment already dying,
                    but we were catching up to it.
Feb 2018 · 283
Love Is Hells Practice
Poetic T Feb 2018
Her lips were
       razorblade kisses,
bleeding the lust from
every motion that leant me
                                       forward.
For the inevitable
           torture of our wounded love.

We were bound by the chains that
gripped within our small collection
of touching moments.
                    You would sculpture
my endless intrusion, forge me into
someone I wasn't before I feel below you.

Now I pray for you to free me,
          the ******* of our coupling.
Constricted to the many time you
cut the voice of our reasoning from me.

*"Love is a hell of our own creations,
         "And your's cuts me deep enough
                     to love you more with each laceration,

I was alone in a bedroom
Poetic T Feb 2018
I was alone in a bedroom
of sinful lusting

only thinking of you
Poetic T Feb 2018
I **** time,
by strangling
every clock I see..

Its only ****** if you take  
the batteries out,
when time stops, death is real.

But if the beat just repeats,
then its just a paradox
of what could have
        and what will eventually be.
Poetic T Jan 2018
I asked a thief
           to steal my heart,
            but was rejected.

For the thief said
      it had been already stolen.

Misconstruing what I meant,
   I wanted it stolen back..
But the thief said, what was given
                             cant be taken back.

Looking into my eyes,
        pulling something from beneath.
Giving me theirs, on this night you
                                have stolen mine.

That which I wanted stolen,
                          given freely back.
The thief no longer a heart taker,
    now proving there the love of my life.

Barren Seeds In A Garden
Poetic T Jan 2018
I watered her gardens
       but a flower never blossomed
       only dead seeds
wilt within this patch.

Her tears fell like rain,
        hoping that realising
her worries would cling
           to a moment never changing.

I watered her gardens
       but a flower never blossomed
       only dead seeds
wilt within this patch.

She wished me to tend to her
                  garden but in the
end I couldn't bring life to
                          with barren seeds.

I watered her gardens
       but a flower never blossomed
       only dead seeds
wilt within this patch.

For it wasn't her garden, for
seasons bled and past.
           But it was me, the Gardner
My seeds were never buried deep enough.

Under Hollow Frames
Poetic T Jan 2018
We are pretty pictures
             under hollow frames.

Never realizing that which
                          holds us together.

Is just as important than
                                what people see,
when were momentarily observed.
Poetic T Jan 2018
Perpetual gleams,
         enrobing the morning
peering beyond the reach
             of any sight.
dissipating hangovers
                of a ceaseless twilight.

A motion of eternity,
a sphere forever collecting  
                              distances
that will for moments
                                   be loved
by two silhouettes of a universe.

We contemplate the lights
            adorned above our gazes,
There moments  
                             many past,
    but still we admire the clear breath
          of darkness as we peer
  momentarily past its haze into the light.

I Gave A Man A Dollar
Poetic T Jan 2018
I gave my last dollar to a man,
he was on the street.
He had those I've been awake
                          my whole life eyes.

A dollar, what's that going to buy me
                         that I haven't already got...

                 I could waste it on a coffee
that I'll never finish as its only half warm,
while I'm too interested in my phone.

                 I 'd have thrown it half drank
in a bin of caffeine tears seeping out
           the bottom busy lives drying beneath it.

But I saw this wasn't a leaf of a tree
               blowing in the wind thinking
of its past, it was moving on.

So I handed this man my last dollar,
            I know he'll make better use
of it than I would,
                              and he smiled at me.

The World Isnt Flowers
Poetic T Jan 2018
The world
       isn't all flowers,
sometimes petals
            are crushed underfoot.
we must learn to evolve.

We must learn
      never to be plucked,
and never let others collect
                            our petals..
We're stronger than that.

The world is a kind hostile place,
                 find your earth and grow strong.
Poetic T Jan 2018
Those who pass us on,
       are but shallow pools of self-worth.
For when we look upon ourselves
                             we see a depth
that only gets deeper
the more we look into
               the pools of our own perception.

Standing Still
