So many people mistake facts as the answers to life's mysteries

In reality, facts are just clues

Along the path of an infinitely large and undiscovered map

Leading to an ultimate treasure

That is truth
Mary Alexander Dec 2015
When you ask yourself
Who would truly care?
If you lay dying
With a cold and empty stare.

Please remember that it would be me.
Trembling with fear,
With dark thoughts roaming free

Because you show me light,
When my courage stretches thin.
Even when that light
Is troubled and dim.

You don't know your worth.
So I'll remind you every day.
I love you, sweet Sir.
And that will never go away.

So next time you wonder
Who would be affected?
Remember that only with you,
My heart is fully mended.

And if I lost your light,
If it were extinguished,
I would never be the same.
But my love never diminished.

She was preparing for her exams,
And I was aiding her for the prep,
Over the telephone I helped her.

She was a bright student always,
And I had to rarely give even a tip,
On some biology topics I guided her.

I loved her like my child.

Misconception rose its head,
In the end the relation died,
So much is lost in this fight,
So much is epitomized here.

Young and cheerful her face,
Oftentimes I am remembering,
Unhappy I am as I fell from grace.
And it's my birthday again on 23rd of December.

Her words struck me like a cobra.
It’s not you love its me
The venom of the snake bite
swirled in my blood.
I was losing my life.
My heart it tried to pump
blood and move oxygen
into my lungs.
But it failed instead
in the searing pain of shock.
I want to faint but I can’t.
If I faint the pain will stop.
But my soul is screaming for air.
This is like a heart attack.
One moment you are reading
a book the next
gasping on the floor
clutching your chest.
It’s not you love its me.
How self absorbed you are.
Like your choices
are the only ones that matter.
I look at my chest
someone has ripped
that part of you
I thought was mine
right out of my heart.
Then it all came to me.
You were never
in my heart at all.
Always Into yourself.
you are you and I am me.
The silence in the room
became deafening.
Hearts fall to pieces
quietly like this.
Its screams of agony
are silent and inside itself.
The door clicked quietly.
As you left with your suitcase
in your hand.
I wondered
what you would do
when you opened it later
and found my heart inside

Where did we go?
Lost in the abyss of cloudy memories
Wound up so low,
We will never find the keys
You threw away.
Yet you always say,
"I love you.
Always will, always have.
I will do whatever you want,
Simply ask, and I will do."
Your words stick like glue
I keep you words in mind
knowing I have been blind.

i hoped every word in my poems
knocked the bricks off your wall of fear
i would have held you, protected you and loved you
until my last breath.

unfortunately, your doubts overshadowed my transparency
it is not a surprise as i have become used to the exit door
when the right human does come i will have so much love to share
i wish you the best, my friend...

im not going to sit here and lie
your beautiful and gentle glow will be missed
but i know there's nothing i could do
as you have made up your mind

i will always be here
i am in love with what we had
you brought me no stress
no lonliness and no fear

love and art, 1991,

Be with me
Always and forever,
And when my flesh
Disappears under
A ground full of roses
You will still remember
My smell.

Even if he was the one who hurt me
I feel save in his arms
You can hit me, and i will still love you

I never thought,
That I'd feel things,
Things that come with the thought of you,
Things that don't feel like butterflies,
The usual.
Something in it reminds me of uncertainty,
fear.
Alan S Bailey Dec 2015
If I ask you what you think about who's in charge,
You say it's not my need to question,
To so quickly be the opposition of the one who
Fed us, clothed us, kept our home clean,
As well as kept locks on everything we'll need
In life to truly succeed. It's not to question.
When I ask you what you think of the score,
You say: "The fault lies in your hands, you are
The punk, (the riff-raff) the failure, the defeatist,"
The bold way men always do things, "*** 'er done!"
That's how it's meant to be, like a Ford commercial,
That and big tires, big guns, big on war, (big on
Everyone falling in line to be what society wants)

Very low on counter-destruction, love, solutions,
Being the key to our problems, communications,
On a small note doesn't seem to save anyone,
Can not solve any threat, and can't solve terrorism,
Hate, misery, and loneliness. From a long view, the "big"
Answer you give me, I still must confess, I disagree,
And big daddy tells us we can make change, in a world
Full of musty traditionalism, societies duality, he makes sure that
"Anyone can see" it's "always been possible for you and me."
