       Spider Web NightMares

 

Oh what tangled  web we weave
of misbegotten make believe
images tossed in a mental sieve
colliding in mayhem in our dreams....
        Silken strands of senseless feeling
meant to tease and seem appealing
 whirling, breaking, aching, reeling
 pieces of life we try concealing
         Wake me before I die inside
this nightmare  brain where fear resides
 memories break and hopes divide
 here in this demon infested side...
         Oh what a daybreak is the dawn
 when we escape the devils spawn!
 Under my power all along
 no recollection, the pains too strong...
      So stings the pain of the spiderous dream
      in a land where nothing's as it seems...

Shades in the Sunlight

   tag poem unedited

  Shades In The Sunlight 

  Petals on the water, softly drifting
  remnants of a bouquet , ruthlessly tossed
  coloring the ripples bright , bright  crimson
  staining as the blood from a heart's love lost

  Underneath the currents , something bleeding
  changing in the shadows, as they drift by
  like a premonition left unheeded
  shades like a reminiscent lullaby...
 
  Lingering  colors in the afternoon
  Shades in the sunlight ,darken and change it
  truth in the sunshine, lies  beneath the moon
  Love turns to  pain in an instant... 

  Petals falling  faster than my tears
  Heartbreak before evening disappears
 

Not Even in My Fantasies

 

    tag poem, unedited, topic by Mundane1

 

   Indelibly etched,
   images of your face smile back at me,
   a phantom vision
   of memories,forever catalogued...
   Barely audible
   your voice speaks  softly through the barriers,
   Reminding  me,please,
   to listen to the truths between the lies...
   So formidable
   I was always  powerless against you
   ever succumbing 
   to the whim and whimsey of your wishes.
   Ecstasy waited
   til you'd passed like a fiery comet
   I, left quivering,
   worried...not even in my fantasies,
   would I touch the sun
   but be satisfied to peer carefully
   through the  proper shades
   that would also hide, disappointed tears.

Sunshine of an Ordinary Day

    tag poem, unedited, topic by  GiAudr
 

 
  Evenings pass so slowly
  when   winter owns the days...
  frosted windows and feelings
  howling winds...
  I feel the urge to sleep
  the moment  darkness falls...
  to sleep ,and escape
  and hope to visit  dreams

  Crumbs of yesterdays thoughts
  clinging to my sticky hands.
  Paint chips on the table
  waiting choice....
  Orange juice and rainbows
  a childlike war on gray-
  recreating the sweet sunshine
  of an ordinary day.

  Clutter piles upon the shelving
  while I wait for it to fall.
  Linens badly needing washing
  crumpled by the wall...
  and the night arrives again-
  still the walls are shadowed dark.
  My  inertia is my path
  winter, my excuse.

Ice Dreams

tag poem, unedited ,topic by unknown,12.30.04

 

DreamsbyDay: Fragile
DreamsbyDay: like the wisps of your breath on a barely cold day
DreamsbyDay: I struggle to hold to on to the idea
DreamsbyDay: of tomorrows forever within your heart
DreamsbyDay: Hopeless
DreamsbyDay: as the spinnings of a spider accross a revolving door
DreamsbyDay: I dizzy as I spin  searching for a focal point
DreamsbyDay: Freezing
DreamsbyDay: my aching  hands reach out to touch your face
DreamsbyDay: I'm frozen in mid-air beyond you
DreamsbyDay: Dreaming
DreamsbyDay: holds no warmth in constant disappointment
DreamsbyDay: I cannot crack the surface of these  ice dreams
DreamsbyDay: .

Elementary Days

 a tag poem ,edited, topic by unknown

 
 So many millions and billions of stars
 charting a course through a vast galaxy....
 Wisps in the wind, or specks in the cosmos
 what consequence have we, in this grand scheme?
 
  
 In younger days wandering childhood visions
 I searched  my world  to find personal truths-
 considered my being of  great importance-
 a doltish   non manifestable dream.
 
 On the tiniest level we're a part
 of more than we can ever  understand
 comprehending  in elementary ways
 what  complicated  hearts can hope to glean.
  
 How far past simple understanding can we learn
 when nothing but the stars can transe the sky?
 Some answers we are given at our birth
 Death must hold other answers unexplained.
