If Only
by jpd on Jul.03, 2009, under Other
She comes around again
Like creeping ivy, she spreads
My heart deluged by our ceaseless rain
Wet with expectation
Climbing over the stone walls
Over the fractured granite of my heart
Planting deep roots within my spine
And wet blossoms upon my eye
She comes to me
With cautious laughter
Sparkling with joy, and dappled
With dark subtleties
A feverish heart
Clutching at my very soul
Relinquishing me
Abandoning me when her moods strike
As I die
Able and eager and willing
To dance brightly amid her fickle, sunlit, skies
If only
Mindless Joy
by sugar on Jun.29, 2009, under If only you knew, Poetry
Moments created like these are
Inner self doubts radically increasing
Never to be seen walking along side my integrity
Dimwitted in open doors, by all reasons
Losing my individuality through the perfunctory route
Endured by lonely nights and heartaches, I am left
Soul searching with a bottle of bitter whiskey
Satisfaction taken behind a dark alley, I knew
Justice was no longer a neighbor
Original sins still calls me, my silent whisper
Yearns for possibilities—do I exist?
