If only these words could mend a broken heart, Or a poem could capture each cherished thought. I would take this artist's brush in hand, to trace your likeness upon a canvas. As you were, beside my heart, together evermore.

In a realm of dreams from long ago, A bard would sing to a room hushed in silence. With his voice, he’d weave each verse. A song of magic to bind us. Our essence, drawn beautifully together. In a lover's poem, the unseen nature of a flower in bloom, perfectly captured within a portrait.

Woven into the fabric of time itself, through tales of loss and tragedy. Here lies the true purpose of an artist's endeavor: To reveal the hidden beauty within sorrow. For even a broken heart reflects our capacity, our strength, beautifully created. A painted portrait of resilience, found within the depths of our spirits. As it thrives in our unconquerable ability to love.

Why don't we steal away

And let me love you tonight

Because you and I've been in love to long

And I'd really love to see you tonight.

So why don't we steal away

(So you can)

Do that to me one more time

(You know )

I'm all out of love

And I can never get enough of a girl like you.

Cause Honey you are my shining star

(In fact you are)

You are The biggest part of me.

And that's how much I feel, feel for you Baby

But most of all I do love you

STILL.

Ok so this is far from being a good poem but it was just a little experiment I did with a new you tube video.
every line was from a song on the Billboard hot 100 for the year 1980

thanks.
You're the harmony,
For my melody.
You're the piano,
To my singing.
Your the calm,
To my anger.
The beat,
To my rap.
I'm tired because I stayed up late working on our playlist. And I don't regret it.
quick, oh, quick,
fingers tremble on the keys,
treble clef,
b sharp, rest and repeat,
switch to a minor,
then back to b,
pick your head up,
and breathe a sigh of relief.
(and then swear at the person in a cast,
backstage and loud,
break your little facade of being a good little child,
and please do feel proud.
i know I did.)
CONTEXT:
my partner broke his arm, we were supposed to duet and this is the result.
Two times of the day
Two different realities
As I am awake the reality is good
As I sleep the reality is terrifying
Yin and yang
Sin and virtues
Evil v. good
As I see the evil
As I see the sinful
As I see the yin
I sea the worst of humanity
Human experiments
Torture
And bigotry
These are not just a reality
These are prophecies of
What will happen
If we don't learn for our past
A lesson that means the future
Of man kind
As I wake I see the good in humanity
The good
The virtue
And the yang
The kindness and caring

Never more
Never more
Never more
What will become of ....
Us
Will we live on and learn our lessons
Or will we learn the heard way again
The thought
Of racism
Homophobia
And sexism
Will
These **** us
For DNA don't mean (s)hit!
Religion is a philosophy
And gender is mind set!
So why the (f)uck are we at
Each others throats


Never more
Never more quoth the girl
Never more

As we fight we become zombies
Slaves to our hate
Slaves to insanity
What will become of be of late
Sin
Yin
Evil......


Never more
Quoth the girl
Never more.....
Good
Virtue
Yang
And life
These are the things we need
To obsess about
Not the negative!

Never more
Quoth the girl
Never more
Never more

Can we forget the past
Or will we risk reliving it!
(F)uck you germs
(F)uck you viruses
(F)uck you bacteria
You are not the main projects
Of the creator sorry to say
But I (f)ucking hate you
Though you make good reading material
Still I say proudly
(F)uck you germs
(F)uck you viruses
(F)uck you bacteria
As I will clean not just for money
I clean to give you a up yours
You little thinks
Are just thoughts
As I am coming for you every
Wednesday
Your existence is unacceptable
But your beauty is acceptable
That I still have to say
(F)uck you germs
(F)uck you viruses
(F)uck you bacteria
As I hated you for the longest of
Times and times again
This is my angry song
This is I cannot give blood song
But (f)uck I am still living
You comb mfers
Can't destroy me
So I say in anger
As I spray in your face
(F)uck you germs
(F)uck you viruses
(F)uck you bacteria


(F)uck you germs
(F)uck you viruses
(F)uck you bacteria
As I despies you
As I spy my favourite book
In my usual nook
I sound like a loud mouthed shuck
But this has to be
Said

(F)uck you germs
(F)uck you viruses
(F)uck you bacteria
(F)uck you germs
(F)uck you viruses
(F)uck you bacteria
I will live my (f)ucking life
Weather you (f)uckers will like it or not
You will not last long with me
I am the mother (f)ucking lemon
And I eat them too!
Watch out

(F)uck you germs
(F)uck you viruses
(F)uck you bacteria
(F)uck you germs
(F)uck you viruses
(F)uck you bacteria

Why don't you have a lemonade
Instead of haterade!
Miss me did you
Miss me do you
Think about the things that
Are going through
My mind too
You
All the kisses and conversations
Wel will have together as we
Enjoy the music, tv, or movie
What shall we talk about
When you come
When you come
This heart needs home improvement
This head needs home improvement
I wish I cool have
Room for you
But my exes are
Living in my head rent free
The must be trainable
But that I cannot say freely
Miss me did you
Miss me do you
To think that you were
Just a typical guy, boy!
I was (f)ucking wrong
To thing that you were into sports
Only to see you are a misfit
Like me
Please be you for (f)ucks sake
I am being me for (f)ucks sake
Do not  conform
Do not conform
As this is how they will get you
As I think of you my heart swelled
And my head inflated to the air off you
At the thought
of kissing you
Slightly passionately
As I never made a guy like you
Tattoos
Piercings
Don't ***** me over
As I had be hurt
But I am not Albert Einstein
So treat me gently for
I am a diamond not a hot star
I am a diamond not a hot star
I am a diamond not a star
I this night sky
Why should you be a star when you
Can be a diamond in the sky but
We are still there when the sun
Shines how I pine for your love
Miss me did you
Miss me do you
Miss me did you
Miss me do you
One,
two, three,
Steps as I
Pace across the
Hard, tile hall-way
Making sure to keep beat.
My feet thud softly in step
with the music in my earbuds.
My hands whirl with the music quickly.
People are staring, but I don't notice,
Because I am not pacing inside my head.
In my brain, I am somewhere different and safe.
I'm not pacing with the music; I AM the music.
It seeps inside every part of my soul, heart, and being.
I grin with pure excitement as I spin in another world.
I used to love haikus. Yeah, because they were easy and quick and small. But mostly because I loved counting the syllables. Now, haikus aren't really my thing. But I still love counting syllables. So I thought maybe this would be more up my alley. Count the syllables as you read. It's fun!
I add music to my thoughts, just to keep them from growing
darker – my cheeks, feel like lead – weighed down by the burden
of unshed tears; as my ears strain to bear the weight of my silent
anguish. At times, my screams clash like thunder, echoing through
the tempest of my doubts, a relentless storm that looms overhead.
Each flicker of hope I grasp is met by lurking shadows, eager to
shroud my path in darkness—insecurities descend like a nightfall,
one among countless others.

The darkness acts as a hairline, as it recedes beneath a vengeful star,
I cling to the flicker of positivity that still resides within me, yet rage
simmers when my existence goes unnoticed. The Heavens bleed
crimson as I search for solace in my dreams, and where the blood
spills, it crashes against the earth with a deafening roar. My thoughts
drift through a luminous haze, yet I remain a harbinger of chaos,
spiralling through destruction—yearning, a restless spirit, my body
evaporating, and ceasing to exist.

In this turmoil, I am drawn into a surreal realm, where the confines
of my mind transform into a grand stage—twisting and contorting,
twisting itself in these performing gymnastic routines. It is a perpetual
struggle, a delicate dance of cognition, as I pray, I do not tear the
fragile threads of my sanity.

Yet, amidst this chaos, my music rises as a refuge, the pen transforming into my conductor's wand, weaving together the symphony of poetic notes that dance upon the page – I am a poet.
Out of the blue
you wrote songs
that brought us out of the black
Reminding us of childhood
singing of lost souls
with a voice
like softly falling rain
