Forever
You can

You can praise me
With your poetic mind
You can hug me
With your poetic arms
You can say
All in the verses

Let's get
Vulnerable
Beyond this threshold
Take me to your universe
Meet me in your dreams

Never let
Wishes to run dry
No matter what
Follow me

I'am all yours
You can
Genre: Romantic
Theme: When everything matter

Dear Red rose,
Of which no one else knows,
Please don't bloom without me,
Don't leave me behind thee,
For thou hast had such beauty before,
And shared thy beauty with me no more,
I then threw myself into a hole to mourn,
Where you left my soul battered and torn.

if love was a sin,
would you be
sorry?
would you repent
on your
wrongdoings
and have no face
to turn
to God
when the time
comes?

would you
stay a sinner
forever
to hold on
to one person,
or object, or
a happening, to say the least,
whatever your affections
desire for?

or do you
become a saint,
bend your
promises
into a halo,
and throw
your sharp horns
like a dagger
in one's chest?

if love was a sin,
the devil
would be ashamed
for all the faults I bear.
i'd be in my own
flames,
and my promises
in my own
tail.

Only through fire and ice
Only through bad and nice
Only through cards and dice
Only through things said thrice
A poets way
another day
trying to leave people with more think
leaving no boat to die and sink.
POEMS AREN'T FOR FUN
Oliver Philip Dec 2018
The challenge
     (Free Verse )
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Praise be to God , we have eyes to see beyond
Befitting the wit of Mankind ever strong.
For years four-hundred maybe five
The Poets made the words to come alive.
Challenging proved me right n seldom wrong

The first rhymes I made way back at school
My fairest weather friends thought me a fool
A waste of useful time the taunted cry
Have they much better things always to do?
And to their fine X-Boxes could be glued.

Crazy nomad soul
Finds sanctuary tranquil
In poetic flights!

ABCDERIAN   poets Army.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Awake my giant cause and fast defend
Be proud of your selection to this human race
Cheeks to be turned , struck and turned again
Discover sooner but not too late my friend
Evil forces satirise the devils work
Fight for God , however low the demons swoop
Gold are his tools and you are living proof.
His Holy praises sing in your loudest voice.
Incorporated within your kindest thoughts
Job satisfaction leads you through the maze
Kindred spirits guiding hands along the way
Look often then within your beating heart
Mindful slay those dragons there to slay.
Not too late to kneel and contemplate.
Perverse and foolish ? No you will never stray.
Quickly learn from all mistakes you make
Reserve your strength to lead in the affray
Stand up this day and so be counted “IN”
To the noblest Army. The Poets unity.
Useless gibberish from Satan’s next of kin.
Vessels empty makes the loudest din.
What matters is that you’re the major source
Xanadu your goal , now you are poised to win
You are the vanguard of triumphant troops
Zoila’s failure to brow-beat any poetic force.
