#reza - Hello Poetry

I died as i sip, the last inch drop of memories... Tasteless, unfragrant, fragmented vacancies... Recollecting, regulating the blurry negligible visions... Recalling, rewriting, summarizing the Summaries It felt like Treachery, disregarding this treasury... life is a Memory, and then it is nullity... Or at least that's what the wise man said... We drown ourselves in each shot and swim out with a sigh Sometimes with a gloom and sometimes with a smile But in the end, both fades away, And oh how quickly they fade away... As if waves washing away our names written on the shore... it fades out to presence, to sense another sore sores, like old chest boxes, we dive deep in each, swimming into it's memories, bone narrow they breached like Leeches, we **** on our melancholy as we silently screech watching pains as days turning to wrinkles, as closer we reach We build our future, though we live for the past... We all get obsessed and we all get attached... We move forward to looking back trying to find a meaning... But after all, Life is a memory, and then it is nothing... Or at least that's what the wise man said

Life is a memory

I died as i sip, the last inch drop of memories... Tasteless, unfragrant, fragmented vacancies... Recollecting, regulating the blurry negligible visions... Recalling, rewriting, summarizing the Summaries It felt like Treachery, disregarding this treasury... life is a Memory, and then it is nullity... Or at least that's what the wise man said... We drown ourselves in each shot and swim out with a sigh Sometimes with a gloom and sometimes with a smile But in the end, both fades away, And oh how quickly they fade away... As if waves washing away our names written on the shore... it fades out to presence, to sense another sore sores, like old chest boxes, we dive deep in each, swimming into it's memories, bone narrow they breached like Leeches, we **** on our melancholy as we silently screech watching pains as days turning to wrinkles, as closer we reach We build our future, though we live for the past... We all get obsessed and we all get attached... We move forward to looking back trying to find a meaning... But after all, Life is a memory, and then it is nothing... Or at least that's what the wise man said

Oh Jalaluddin! You counseled me to "Tear down this house" My House Because I Love you I'm taking your advice Tearing it down Brick by Brick Plank by Plank I'll start from the outside And work my way in People will stop and stare "Another crazy person" they'll observe "He's gone mad" they'll whisper as I break down the walls "He's a fool" they'll note as I bring down the chimney "He's lost" they'll gossip as I break the foundation "Stay away from him" they'll warn as I sit in the rubble "Were they right all along" I'll ask again and again "Did I make a mistake" "Did I burn my life on a whim" "How do I know" "Is it possible to know" It's a lonely place this one In the ruins Tired and hungry Gathering energy to dig With the Pickaxe You gave me at birth Alone Homeless Afraid I Surrender...

Tearing Down My House

Oh Jalaluddin! You counseled me to "Tear down this house" My House Because I Love you I'm taking your advice Tearing it down Brick by Brick Plank by Plank I'll start from the outside And work my way in People will stop and stare "Another crazy person" they'll observe "He's gone mad" they'll whisper as I break down the walls "He's a fool" they'll note as I bring down the chimney "He's lost" they'll gossip as I break the foundation "Stay away from him" they'll warn as I sit in the rubble "Were they right all along" I'll ask again and again "Did I make a mistake" "Did I burn my life on a whim" "How do I know" "Is it possible to know" It's a lonely place this one In the ruins Tired and hungry Gathering energy to dig With the Pickaxe You gave me at birth Alone Homeless Afraid I Surrender...

Let that butterfly land on my Heart It’s been so long since I’ve felt anything there Well… other than the THUNDERCLAP That was you closing the door Let that butterfly land on my Heart It’s been so long So long since I felt butterflies there Dancing so hard it made me feel sick I miss that kind of sick… Let that butterfly land on my Heart It’s been so long Too long… Let me hear the wind from its wings… I hope they whisper Truth Let one antenna brush up against my Heart… To remind me that I can still feel Let it see me… I need to be seen Don’t fly away little butterfly

They robbed us! The one’s that told us what it means to be men… THEY LIED!!! They told us feeling is wrong. And they taught us to be STRONG is to be silent. "Build a pit," they said, "make it so deep that a lifetime of emotion can’t fill it." And we oblige. But we know it’s there… The stench keeps us up at night. The fetid fumes cloud our vision; The windows to our souls opaque to the outside world and those we Love, those we want to reveal ourselves to. Meanwhile, inside, we’re clawing at the glass with bloodied hands. GOD HELP ME!!! I want to be free of this!! See me! I’m a human being! I have hopes, I have dreams, I have fears, I feel sorrow, I know regret, and I believe in redemption… but all of this... It's for someone else… someone weak. What a lie! So delicious we swallowed it whole—a bitter pill dipped in honey Given us by those we love, by those we trust. The poison works through us, unrelenting, T w i s t i n g us, turning us against one another… No emotions! Not here!! You’re a man!! Be a man!! **** it up!!! **** it up until it chokes you!!! **** it up until you can’t feel anymore!! **** it up until you’re dry and broken!! **** it up until you forget... What life was and what death is… **** it up because that’s what men do. They corrupted our legacy They stole our future. And we let them do it. We helped them do it.

I want to make Love to you, like the flame to the wick Wrapping around you Caressing you Lighting You UP revealing YOU The Real YOU Not that silly facade you show the world -- cold and lightless We are shapeless and flowing... dangerous and beautiful... Love and Lust Fused Consuming Each Other Awake and Alive Tasting the Divine as our Temple burns This is Life. This is Death.

Life is not a straight line It curves in chaotic unpredictable and Beautiful ways... A chance encounter on the way home A lover lost in a storm A sunrise after a long lonely dark night The first cold of winter And the last dew drop in Spring. Miracles more than mere Moments The emotions and memories Shading in the pattern Giving it shape and depth Defining something imperceptible until it is Done. A Cosmic Mandala - Temporary Divinity This is Life so... Embrace the Curves

The Curves

Is this what It is Sitting at a table Surrounded but ignored Teeth falling Memory fading Skin hanging Friends dead and dying Is this what it is Generations erupting and then receding Ages coming and going Is this what it is To live To die Why did we choose life Why do we believe in death

Reflected, in your eyes, I see... Imperfections Blemishes Misery Pain Is that how you see me? A taTteREd tappestry A misfit Dis-connected From my motivations and inspirations Lonely Afraid Sad; These all seem to me to be reflected, you see, in what you see that I see reflected in me.

You See Me

Reflected, in your eyes, I see... Imperfections Blemishes Misery Pain Is that how you see me? A taTteREd tappestry A misfit Dis-connected From my motivations and inspirations Lonely Afraid Sad; These all seem to me to be reflected, you see, in what you see that I see reflected in me.
