#centuries
I've known you for the whole autumn
And twenty years afterward.
I doubt that someone will ask me about it
Or make me answer for short.
I clung to you that magic winter
And I've been with you ever since.
No one will ever take you away from me
And I won't go! You'll be convinced!
I've taken my roots in you. Look how!
I've lost myself in you in full.
That very autumn, and then forever
I found my peace in you in whole.
And I'll be your very essence,
The heart of the whole being.
I'll be with you the rest of the centuries,
Standing against all hardships by all means.
You are my only reason for being,
Unchanging, unshakeable, clear,
At that very moment when you appeared,
Completely sudden, but unfeared.

As I grow older I want to look back on the good times I've had, but would it be weird if I also said the bad?
Because without the bad times, there couldn't possibly be any good times?
Footsteps on stones, gravel and bones,
I want a memory to last a life time that surpasses me beyond the stage of deaths door steps.
Where will I go, where will you go, when this life is over?
Every morning when my eyes open, my nostrils breathe the dusty particles of my dusty bedroom floor...but the comfort is within, knowing to be here.
Time's stand still, but not for long when you're half a century gone.

It’s something I think about often,
Do we fully understand the fragility of this life we possess?
And suddenly a loved one is taken …it inflames you to think.
Every consciousness is a precious and fragile gift.
These lives of ours are fleeting, gone in a minute.
When you suddenly understand this, everything fades into the background.
Pushing 70 now… I choose to soar out of bed joyfully rejoicing each morning,
That life has granted me another day above the dirt.
Life is strong and weak…it’s a paradox.
Keep your mind strong my friends, don’t hide behind your fears.
This life of yours is an amazing gift….live it with a smile!

Remember the name
they'll be considered the same.
Two centuries apart but
both just as smart
at playing the poetry game

a
goddess
of
love
a
symbol
of
lasting
adoration
a woman throughout the centuries
who has attracted
many a man's devotion
she of charm
and enticing allure
she of a superlative
nature
men have fallen to their knees
in exultant praise
worshipping the embodiment
of her feminine maze
and she invokes
powerful feelings
within a man's
core
Venus the allegory
of
timeless
armour

I don’t want this to be another season’s story,
Hand me “yours” and I’ll hand you “mine”
By heart I promise, you will be the only “mine”
An unbreakable oath that is carved on steel,
A legendary love story that will be on every person's tongue for centuries.

Before we begin
we were both naive
to see the every inches of this world.
We are just starting to proceed
the consequences of going with the flow.
We have a lot of experiences
in our pocket,
it is a proof we will have
to choose our path.
Suddenly, that line crossed
and connected together,
I am part of your day and night
but never your whole life.
my last thought was you
I'm sorry if I'm running late
there are many things I haven't done yet
you are the most beautiful thing I've ever found,
I won't let you wait for centuries
just keep the traces of me.

Sincerety has aligned me with the wrong path
to love
to success
to glory,
It certainly draws the potential of freedom and truth
yet at the cost of shattering every chance of a quiet life,
Even the freedom it brings is only of oneself's mind
We have no control
We, the sincere,
Shall not have our names sang,
Yet they will ring for centuries
In the ears of the many who never spoke for themselves.

the day you appeared
was like nothing else
i mean you’d been there before
we just couldn’t see you.
we called you v161 mon.
for that, i apologize
it wasn’t my choice.
we raised you
the best we knew how,
but you still swallowed
anything that got close
now i’m old
and dying
and you’ll live on
for years.
hundreds,
thousands,
millions,
billions of years
and eventually fade
but even your
death will
take centuries.

Time passes like no other passes.
Like no other classes: you cannot learn
about time, and how it moves.
You can be shown mechanics,
the seconds and minutes.
Though these illusions alleviate
us of reality-
how gradually
it treks on.
It stops and starts
and starts to stop.
We feel the slots
slipping by, flying by.
There's no way to tell,
when ours will end,
though its grasp eternal,
begins again.

It is too late -
Your name has already carved itself
into a song- and what an ironic song
you chose to represent yourself with...
I will remember you for centuries,
it says but let's remember
that the feeling is mutual;
You will not forget me now and then.
You will not forget mind numbing kisses,
you will not forget holding me
as if our lives depended on it.
And cursedly, I will not forget you;
I will try to, but everything
will start to resemble you.
Even these words - are they getting you
out of my own head or are they
digging my grave just an inch deeper
into dirt - dirt you dug out, just for me,
with a smile, a ribcage, and
a heartbeat that feels like my tombstone
teasing me, beating down the seconds until
my heart stops, just for you.

I never knew a few years could feel like a few centuries, life is short but feels so long. Are we forgetting the difference? I always wonder. I always wonder too much, but can you find other people who do the same? Good, i don't feel as lonely in this dungeon.

too many poems
too many poets
describing the
same **** feelings
and yet
throughout the centuries
none of us
have ever found
the right words

Do not leave me
not even for a day.
For a day is long,
difficult to understand
and one without you
exhausts me.

You're the wave
That shattered me,
I'm the rock
That stood up to you;
It's been centuries—
I've been steadfast,
You've been patient;
What more proof is needed—
We're perfectly matched

Howcome you find it so easy to let go of me?
You didn't even fought for me to stay.
Even if I'm the one who's gonna leave,
I didn't find it easy leaving you.
In the days like this that I'm not sure,
If you really liked me or it's just for show.
But this spark in my heart is real,
And i think it will take centuries to disappear.

Come
Everyone, let's
Never forget our past.
Together we can make a brighter future,
Under the stars I
Raise above this world and
I can see we're going no where fast.
Everyone staring at their phones,
Stop and look around. We can change the world!

A little backnote confession
Silent but wanting it to be heard
I don't want to be a nobody
Or somebody unknown throughout his life
I want to to be remembered for centuries
Come drown these doubted words with me
I'll pay for the drink
Let's sooth the fire at the start
So it doesn't get awkward
I'm not better than Mozart or the guy you see it at the Subway restaurant
But I want to be someone who impacts the world
I want something about me to give warmth inside a woman's bones
Where she can't see herself with any other man
Because I'm an open folder that was opened on the wrong page
And I want you to know that my fears are your future problems
And I don't want that
I just want to be a man who is remembered forever
For the world and your world
Ahead of immortality, you're the most important
Making you happy is what removes the dirt from my skin
And cleanse itself instantly
You're the reason I'm not piling up on candy at a Dollar Tree
I just want you to feel independent and free
And satisfied with me
I want that chance for you to be happy
Because you're looking for a certain man
And I just want to fit that criteria
