I remember your kisses
And the feeling of your hand in mine,
Heartbreak is a war inside ourselves
But we must continue to shine.
It is not the end, only a new beginning
Amanda Kay Burke Jun 2018
I believe struggles make us stronger
Can only bring patience and sturdier will
When I look at past suffering
It touches with lessons still

I am a product of persistent pain
In the wake of destruction is grace
Depth is defined by determination
It is detailed in the lines on your hands and face

Time goes on, even when broken
At our worst we must retain hope
See a way to grow from our setbacks
Look to a better future as you climb life's *****.

my skin is beat raw
stripped bare of what it once was
yet i will go on
a haiku
Aa Harvey May 2018
Suit


All I can write about at the moment is love;
So I am going to ride the crest of a wave,
Until the time my surf board breaks.


When you see me crawling up onto the beach in my wet suit;
Only then will you see that I am done
And other poetry will appear again.
This is my truth.  Love is my pain.

no one
would say
"no"
to peace
if asked.
so why
have we
not said
"yes"
or made
it last

they are there (together)
and i am here (alone)
and yet the earth keeps spinning
and the clock keeps ticking
but if i saw them again, would it be the same?

Rain does not fall forever but where it is stopped, there it continues.
Trees will not grow forever but when they die, death is not the end.
Sēma is an ancient word for 'sign'. The poetic form Sēma points to signs of change in nature. Using intuition and imagination, a Sēma's meaning can have a human context. To know nature is to know humanity, for they are one and the same thing.

although it may be scary
although you may feel stuck

the clock will continue ticking
the sun and the moon will continue their exchange
calendar pages will continue turning
and time will go on

you must trust the ways of the world
they have not failed you before
they will not fail you now

trust the peace
and the benefits that time will give.
