Poetry is Therapy.....: I no longer wish to be loved childishly.

loveispain1709:

I want to be loved with the strength and charm of maturity. I don’t want to be smothered by the fear of jealousy and insecurities. I don’t want a relationship based solely upon shutting the world out and locking each other in. I want to be somewhere where I can breathe. Where, even in the midst…

W. W. Norton: Feast

wwnorton:

—Let me taste
the kitchen in your skin.

Now that company’s gone
& the kids are tucked in,
let the real feasting begin.

Let me lay you out on the
bed like a spread of bone

china.—Yes, I want a
piece of you.
Yes, I do.

Give me your garlic, and
the sting of your pepper.

The plenty of…

"I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life. I’ve learned that making a “living” is not the same thing as making a “life.” I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I’ve learned that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one. I’ve learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn. I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Just one drop of you

Could nourish my tattered soul

And end my dead thirst.

But I sit in this desert,

Scorched by a blazing sun.

Poetry is Therapy.....: I think about you a lot.

loveispain1709:

Don’t really speak on it, though. Don’t really feel you need to know. Don’t really think it matters much anymore. I used to write your name in rain puddles, stomping, and jumping up and down until I was drenched in you. I used to run through meadows visualizing your face, laid in the grass with…

You awake on the bus, look to your right and see the evergreen, sticky, piney bushes. You look to your left and your seatmates stands up, signaling that you have arrived. As you step off the big yellow bus, you stop to check your shirt. You nod at Sgt. Taylor as you walk through the double doors of the school. You see your friends and they see you but, as you step off towards them, you glance to your left at the cold, evolvement of a frame, tiled to the wall. A frame holding together a bit of history; a picture of Dr. Charles E Murray and the phrase, “People do according to their understanding.” You stop at this rectangular shade on the wall every mourning and think; “Can this be true?” but never allowed to assess such an assumption, you are left thinking; but now is that time’s end.  Let’s think!
            “To be or not to be” well I say “Is it is or is it ain’t”. It is plausible. How can one possibly and effectively complete an objective without the understanding of what it is they must actually do? They can not! How can a man become a leader, if in his entire life, all he has been taught, the only thing he has been around, the only feeling he has ever experienced, was that of following others, of negative influencers, and of failure? They can not! Who, suffering such unlovely life conditions, would be expected to know of luxuries like success, prosperity, and even possibility, but a prevaricator? And even a human being so guile as this would still not be capable of more than their understandings due to their profession; lying.
            How dare any man demand such an impossible feat!  It is anti-proportional to expect for any form or being to be capable of exceeding their own common understanding. If a person does something, it is because they understand what it is they are doing.  It seems, almost every day I cross a person, it maybe the same person or another, but they become trouble and stressed due to efforts they apply to doing something they do not understand. I for example, would not have been able to write a paper such as this one, without first understanding the prompt. We must realize our full potential, for only then can we truly know our own understandings.
