Sally, dear, I'm glad you're here.
Do you remember Christmas town?
How silly, of course you do!
That magical tree I fell through,
Well Sally, last night I sat on Spiral Hill
As the wind sang beautiful chills,
Curiosity filled me right to my core,
I've often questioned, what do you suppose
Is behind all those other wonderous doors?

"Now wait, but Ja-"
"Please, Sally, we should have none of that
Imagine the lands, the towns, the sounds
And frankly, I know where I belong,
But in this town, I am still just a little bit bored."

I heard of a place where everyone would chase
Little men wearing green,
As strange as it seems, for reasons untold,
Each little man held a *** of gold.
Lock, Shock, and Barrel, while planning my peril,
Found a giant bunny they accidently stole
And although I offered no applause,
For the Hopper was no Sandy Claws,
I bet that basket of eggs plays a devious role.

And Sally there was one more...
In that circle of trees, one with a heart on the door,
With you, that one, I want to explore.
I've heard no rumors of it's contents
But we should see, together, what it has in store.
What's this?

Stay your tongue to save discomfort
Stay your tongue and lose forever
The chance to speak of whatever it was
No forever lasts forever

No paint speaks for me
My favorite words fall utterly short
And I, no song could ever be you
And yet I can see you here
Before you are known
Before you exist in this world of mine
I can see you as if you were in present time
Just as if you were already mine
Sometimes all of the venues you use, the methods of communications and expression, fall incredibly short. Which is life I guess.

Lovely Guillermo Nov 2019
After long years,
Our paths crossed
He's still in love with me,
And I swear I love him even more - the one I hurt before
The one who learned to hate me the most when I left him with no words
We commenced together again
Hoping that our love story will have a fairytale-like ending for the second time around.
Crossed fingers, wishing it will never end this time.

But for those around us,
The second chance is a big NO NO!
For a liar,
For a cheater like me
There's no luck for another bite of the cherry
But for him, he took the risk
And it's totally fine
He doesn't care because he said true love exists.

Until the man I thought I knew suddenly forgot to hold my hand
To touch my face,
To kiss my hand,
To be the same as he promised to be,
To be the one who will never go away from me.
Until one day, he listened to them.
He slowly changed his mind,
His thoughts, his heart.
'Til I know him no more
The saddest thing is,
The fear that one day he'll go to me and tell the same things his friends said against me came
That I am a liar,
A cheater
and should not have been given the shot
Finally, he walked away and never turned back.  

So I'm here
Left all alone
Waiting for a time machine to turn me back to the time
That I should have not wasted his love,
His loyalty,
His trust.
I wish I could turn back to those days that hurting him was out of my vocabulary.
If only I could,
I will.
I really will.

And yes, I continue to exist with this love for him
To the one, I hurt before
With the one who hated me the most
And I can't resist...
'Coz even he's already out of my life,
I'll still fall in love with him again and again.
It will be the hardest to forget him
For he never thought me how
And it kills me even more,
That everyday, I die.

Burning like sun, what makes you as sun..
Enthusiasm like yeast, will make your hope to shine..

True beauty will never fade, even when darkness surround..
Let us rise this moment that will ever shine, as tomorrow will never be in our hand..

As whole heartedness, keep the shine of soul..
Let the inner strength fulfill the dream of goal..

Shine your light, as like a candle..
And like a candle, you shine in night..

Let the tone of your music, play with your talent..
And the beauty of yours, shine from within the soul..

Let your light shine, like the lighthouses..
Let your each day shine, with its glorious moments..
Live before you die
YusufKudsi Nov 2019
I want to live before I die,
I want to feel before I get broken and turn into pieces,
I want to know what love means before I learn to hate,
I want to be me before society changes me
into something I don’t want to be.
Left Foot Poet Feb 2018
I used to live alone before I knew you

so
of the mundane tragedies endlessly writ
repeat rinse repeat
repeat
how awfully awful
is the complaining without cessation
of busted everything;

recall the the doctor’s office sign
"no cure for the broken heart here"

so when I hear a Buckley sing
the words of the Cohen, High Priest of Songs,
I, a broken hallelujah,
smile with recognition
  though the true cure is
yet  still forever being researched

patience is a patient within me,
for my muses and their endless,
poking aching whispers of write, write, write, right,
they are the company I keep,
they are the company that sweeps me up
I, a broken hallelujah

they are not the desired flesh, true,
that affirms confirms and denies me
denying my needy frailties
but for now,
mine company to keep,
so when we do meet and
you greet me with a
tell me about your previous lovers
as you humanly must

will recite my poems from
from before I knew you
