Ignatius Hosiana Apr 2015
Guarded the remnants of my broken heart
Gathered the pain, of course I was hurt
I told myself never to fall for another lie
Believed strongly knowing I'd rather die
But time gracefully flapped her wings
And with it came another who sweetly sings
I forgot all the promises myself I'd made
Couldn't reason with her draped in my head
I felt comfort in the blanket of her embrace
And safe taking the grace beneath her dress
She was a blossom only found in Fairland
Leaving me neither caution nor lesson learned
She was an opportunity I seized by the beard
A reckless adventure I'd hitherto feared
By the vast river of her charms swept away
So whether It's real or not, I'll take it day by day
Right at this moment I'm in love again
And future if it happens 'll take care of the pain
David Saunders Apr 2015
Amidst the crowded globe there lies,
a pasture seen by the most common eyes.
There, glorious edibles are ripe;
and Eve's nectar we all delight.
Desire sends us searching for where it lies,
but vain when seeking pries.

Little words are worth
the emotion collected in tranquility.
At the gate of the orange groves,
the momentary event embraces me.
Fat hugs. Squeeze. Let go.

I’m radiating a smile,
In this moment I’m unstoppable,
I can do anything.
No one will break this smile,
For smiles are the most beautiful,
When worn for not everyone,
But for yourself
When you know you are
Unstoppable.
I’m radiating a smile
Because I know
I Will Be Okay.

Part one and two
                                                       I
She looked …how?
Like she’d been broken,
Her heart, has, now
Been lost, stolen….

By the sting,
And eyes that hide,
Overwhelming,
Hidden lies.

Like a rose,filled all with spikes...

                                                    ­    II
Red and green,
It's all a lie,
But desire,
Kept her high.

All is carpe,
And diem,
Regret meets after,
Home, the sin.

Follow pleasure,
And you will write,
A love letter,
Filled with lies.

she silences herself now
so that one day she may be heard
she chooses to study now
so that one day she may succeed
she chooses to stay home now
so that one day she may go out
she chooses to shy away now
so that one day she may be social
she chooses to not think about love now
so that one day she may find it
she chooses to put away her ambitions now
so that one day she may achieve them

everyday she chooses to put aside her wants and her needs
in the hopes of a brighter future and better life ahead
everyday she dies a little
in the hopes of being able to truly live one day

but who is to guarantee that that day will come?
who may guarantee her a future at all?
who can guarantee that she will wake up the next morning?
is there any guarantee that she will even live to see the days she has spent her whole life working for?

to live in the moment; or not to live in the moment;
that is the real question

I open the door.

You slide in
With that look.

I know what this is,

But my clothes
are already on the floor.


Your skin on mine.

Your lips on my neck.

My legs pull you closer,

Simultaneously building

To our release.


As the water beats down our bodies,

You hold me.

And for the first time,

I feel what it is like to be close to you.
Swaying to the sound of the shower,

I know your body is lying to me,

But I so badly want you to prove me wrong

As I cave in
To that moment
Of hope.
Time is just dust in the wind
The past is just a portrait of sin
The future holds a date with death
And i'm not ready to know just yet
So i won't look back, and i wont look forward
But i’ll defend here and now with a fist and a sword
live in the moment while you can, because tomorrow this moment will be gone, and you cant go back to yesterday
Fill me up from head to toe
Make me melt; Body and soul
Not just once but ever more
Kiss me hard; And watch me soar
Elioinai Apr 2015
You hang my tear drops
like crystals from my bedroom ceiling
and pull the curtains back with a gasp
so all my shiny feelings
collide with yours throughout the air
A day spent with You is worth more than a thousand years elsewhere
Psalm 84:10-12
