Shoutout the people up here
beautiful beings and creatures
its a long time since i haven't shown appreciation to the value all of you guys hold for me
you people are a blessing as much as this site is
we are because of this site
and the site is what it is because of us
everyone great in what they put out here
too much of talent and am always in awe of you guys
we all share this existential space of experience & thoughts
we are so impactful into each others brain wiring
by whatsoever kinda poem posted on here by us
we can literally visualize the works out here
that is a great thing one could make other do what by just penning down words
although we don't chat and socialize much here
i would like more of it
i think at times about we all meeting each other
knowing everyone ...in person
roam around in the city each one is
if ever granted a wish by a genie
i would be in one of your cities hanging out with you  
~
sorry guys i could only pen down so much ..... but all of you are more than this

blessed beyond what we could ask or think
Wolftrax May 2016
Gazing at the sunset, I’m thinking about you
The thought of us together, someday soon
Hoping I’m enough, when it comes to us
The last thing I want, is to lose your trust
Words can’t describe the way I feel, it’s a mess
Nothing compares to the love we have, I’m blessed

I want you to know, my heart will forever be yours
Just promise to never hurt me or treat me unkind
I’ll be completely respectful and honest to you
If you promise in return to be the same with me
I’ll give you my love, my respect.. this, I guarantee
My heart will belong to you, and nobody else

Know that from this day on, I’m here by your side
Never will I stray away, or doubt you a single day
I just want to kiss and hold you, and never let go
Fall in love with you all over again, as I lose control
You make me feel things, that I haven’t felt in years
When I see you hurting, it brings me to tears

Being there for you is my one and only desire
I’ll never forget the night, we met by the campfire
Your beautiful laugh and your gorgeous smile
It captured my heart from that point on
You were the only one I wanted to spend time with
I know it sounds crazy, but I feel I have it all with you

You find patterns
in everything
and I am just beginning to notice this about you.

You watch documentaries,
and tell me all about them.

One was about
a nanny turned photographer
capturing strangers
mid-conversation-

I like your summaries
better than the stories themselves.

Someday, you, too
will take great photographs
and the world will know your name
before you're deceased.

I'm sure of it.

We walked through a field of glowing grass,
and you tried to touch each blade.

It began to rain,
I wiped a stray droplet onto your nose
and kissed your eyelids.

You laughed at me,
tried to annoy me,
hold my hand in different ways,
push me
off the sidewalk-

I stepped in dog ****
but you insisted
it was human...

I listened to you spin your story
and was reminded of how lovely
it is to peer inside your mind-

My glasses broke tonight
and yet I haven't seen this clearly
in what feels like forever.

I'll tell you "let's do this,"
this time, without any liquor
if it means I'll prove my devotion
to you
and this time
we have together.

I don't care what you call me,
or who knows I exist,

as long as you keep kissing me
with as much electricity
as I felt when I first met you.
Thank you.

shamed for showing too much
shamed for not showing enough
over ****** warrants being called a ****
not ****** enough and I’m called a *****
so what am I supposed to do?
never leave the comfort of my judgement free home?
oh wait, that’s not true
mainstream media bashing the idea of individuality
sure they say they support it
but if they really did
would we, constantly, see the same features, plastered on magazines?
trends change quickly
and my body sure as heck can’t keep up
that’s okay though,
I was never one to conform to the societal standard
the thick thighs, “fat ***”, skinny waist, and *******
that I’m supposed to have,
but am supposed to cover up?
I’m sorry but if I had been “blessed” with those physical attributes
I would not be so eager to cover them up
and is “blessed” even the right word to describe
what so many women have come to despise?
large chests that cause back pains,
the unwanted attention and ****** comments?
maybe they aren’t so blessed,
but are rather cursed
that in a society like ours
we are taught to hate ourselves no matter what
instead of embracing the unique beauty that we are gifted
rather than celebrate the intricate details of our souls
and the crazy two A.M. thoughts that run through our minds
the stunning stream of consciousness that separates us from the rest
but unfortunately,
we have assimilated into one
bland society,
where variety is shunned
and everyone is the same
//two AM outrage\\

Don't ever let any one tell you that you're not beautiful.

You are a most precious gem, 
         beautiful in nature, unique in design.
                 One of which all men are hoping to find
A gem that should be strung on a necklace
                       and kept close to the heart, 
Yet necklaces are often only seen in part.

Perhaps you should be on the band of a ring 
                             on a hand like a string, 
    reminding everyone of your glorious beauty,
Yes for all the world to see the treasure that you be. 

But hands are often, time and again 
                       bound to get ***** now and then. 
No, not on necklace nor a ring can 
                        all your beauty be on display. 
If there was something I could do,
                         if I could just find a way.

Perhaps on the ear you can hang, 
          where no dirt will be
   But lo, there is hair and hair blocks
              the beauty the world needs to see. 

Where can I put a gem like you?
         Necklace, ring, and earring all won't do
   So where can I display a beauty like you?

At last only one place remains, 
            (Though your beauty I could never contain)
    In a case, behind glass, on a stand made of brass, 
        where dirt nor hair get in the way
        where your beauty can be put on display. 

Then the world may know what treasure have I,
to hold such a gem as yourself makes me one blessed guy.

Blessed love of mine,
Blasted is the wind tonight,
Take me, Hold me,
Blessed love of mine,
Tonight.

The half moon, Bright,
Grins malisciously, Ferry me,
Upon an open arm
Into your harbour wide.

Until the storm is over
And calm again this cruel sea,
Blessed love of mine,
Take me, Hold me.

Wash the salt away
Which bites and pierces this ****** wound,
Cleanse the wrecked soul rolling
In the savage swell.

Blessed, Oh blessed tonight,
Blasted is the wind,
Blessed love of mine.

I Lied and still lying
I Stole something, more important than a thing
I Killed someone but only in my mind
And in HIS eyes it is already ******
I am a sinner, yesterday and today
Yet, I'm still having an Unconditional Love of yours
Pauline Morris Mar 2016
Within my darkened hour
I lay upon my bed and cower
Waiting on the Grim Reaper to devour
I was waiting on that darkest beast
But Death wisps in and gently sealed my lips with a kiss of sweet release
And I become one of the blessed deceased
