| Are You Strong Enough to Bleed ..... and Love Posted: 10/10/2007 5:05:55 PM | I just wish to continue my old thread ideas with a new perspective and approach. Honestly, I am sincerely thankful for all those that read my other thread and contributed to it as well and I do intend to bring back some of the older stuff ..... Thank you...... JD
I close my eyes And I think of you For your face is everywhere That I look
The wind calls your name And I face the breeze Extending my arms I feel your embrace
And I absorb The warmth of your smile Yellow upon blue With no clouds
You surround me Like trees in a forest I'm protected against the rain As I find solace in a gentle brook I look upon the crystal waters And your face is there
My heart is the wildflowers That I pick for you I hope that you feel my love As you inhale the fragrance
You are here with me No matter the space or time You are in my heart And I love you | |

Welcome back! Personal pleasure is derived from circumstance expressed with regard to positive loving expressions directed at 'Spiffycat'. Sincerest best wishes to You both!
A poetic rendering is respectfully submitted:
'To Sail'
Sailing into perceived emptiness Perceived of those of life less Embark on journey loving two The dawn together morning dew.
With kindest regards,
Sincerely. TBK

| Are You Strong Enough to Bleed ..... and Love Posted: 10/10/2007 7:01:29 PM | Whyspr-- Thanks for stopping by and sharing your well-wishes. The last year and few months have been a most remarkable journey that I thank the Lord to have traveled. Thanks again and please feel free to visit again.
Truth-- Laughing-- thanks for stopping by and sharing your well-wishes, my friend. But you know, in all seriousness, in the end all that are true to themselves shall find the things that they seek. You shall find your happiness as your heart and soul is evident through your words. In the meantime, you shall enjoy the journey that you travel. Your words state that you will. I hope that you shall drop by again and that you feel free to share your thoughts and words.
TBK--- Thank you for your dropping by and sharing your kind and respectful words and best-wishes. I hope that you shall feel free to visit again. And best-wishes to you also. I just read your second posting .... thanks for your kind words and I will continue to post more poems as it is in my blood to do so. Again .... please do feel welcomed to visit again and to share your thoughts and words.
Champrins--- Thanks for stopping by and sharing your kind words and defending my thread. Imagine someone, like myself, whom is the very happiest that he has ever been in his entire life seeking pity. I am about to laugh myself silly. Either I have made an enemy amongst fishies in the pond or someone is shallow and presumptious and I guess even did not read the first poem posted in the thread .... a poem about love. How in the world can someone that loves another from the depths of their heart seek sympathy. Whichever it is, I am thankful for you and the others that voted to keep my thread going.
I can not help but smile At my life and where it stands I am thankful to God For what he placed in my hands
A son that is wonderful That loves me and it shows And someone that I love That makes my heart glow
Life could not be much more wonderful But better it shall be When things are the way they're meant to be I shall be living ecstatically | |

| Are You Strong Enough to Bleed ..... and Love Posted: 10/10/2007 7:16:53 PM | Dear J.D.:
Happiness and joy is evident in Your writings, and is a pleasure to the reader.
Personal attempts at poetry are cryptic, and not my fortay.
To be clear, it is most pleasureable to see the evidenced joy in Your writings exploding within Your heart. May You nurture each other and grow together in the fresh dawn of new love.
With sincerest kind wishes, I close:
Respectfully. TBK. | |

I am thankful to POF for giving all of us this forum to post our thoughts, feelings, and ideas. And I will try to follow their wishes by using an existing thread or this one to post new writes on. If anybody enjoys reading any of my poems most all will be added to this, but I am always willing to contribute to others. There are real talented people on this forum and I enjoy reading their stuff as well. Also, feel free to comment or contribute to anything I post.
"Ten Long Years"
Ten long years without a hug, he just drops his head At least twelve since he's heard I love you, so emotionally dead No friends it seems, family aloof, dang he is so alone Just a kid in his heart, scared of his feelings, he hurt's to the bone No one understands the torment within, too ashamed to say He doesn't want others to think he's weak, onward his lonely way His heart bleeds forever, wounds never close, he's dying for someone to care Desperately looking for his missing love, into the eyes of other's he glares She doesn't notice, or doesn't care, fighting the hurt, he carries ahead Knowing that tomorrow will be like today, his life is full of dread Needing affection, a touch saying hey I care, to save himself from internal danger He puts his head in his hands and wipes his tears, how the heck can you ask for a hug from a stranger | |

"The Storm"
Mounting tension as storm clouds gather Air filled with excitement as the storm brews Thunder crashing in the distance speeds his heart with anticipation Lightning flashing across the sky between her eyes and his Filling his soul with anxiousness Sun shining from her face and into his eyes Taking a moment he glares at the sun's beauty and smiles back Staring into the eyes of the storm, his heart gets struck by lightning Electricity fills his body and flashes through his eyes into hers and melts her heart The storm is close as the thunder gets louder Flashing lightning becomes more intense and targeted Giving in to temptation, his mouth searches for hers through closed eyes Graciously accepting his invitation, the two engage in a kiss that ignites the soul, setting it on fire The lightning intensifies as their unbridled passion reaches fever pitch and the storm is at hand Lost in the middle of the storm, caught unprepared for the downpour of passion as their bodies become drenched with sweat and the passionate rain The storm is upon them, lightning flashes continuously from his eyes to hers The sound of thunder becomes deafening as their hearts race estatically from the excitement that fills their souls Loud booms of thunder from the frenzied storm as their bodies crash into each other driving each other mad Lost in time, the only realization is that the storm is passing They look into each other's eyes as the last strike of lightning crashes and their bodies collapse as the final crack of thunder rips through their beings A steady flow of rain drips off their bodies as the storm's end is here They exchange a knowing glance Smiling from the soul, they exchange a long slow kiss Sheltering each other, they silently dream for the next storm | |

You never know when you might reach someone with something you say, a new friend or a changed life is only a word away, so I decided to put some of my older stuff on the thread. For those that read my poems I would like to say thank you. Also, feel free to Email me if you want to make comments or have questions about my poetry and don't want to post it on a thread. I hope that you enjoy my different view on things, as well as those of the really talented people on this site. We all have one thing in common, those that read and those that write, we connect in one way or another with human expression, which is beautiful all on its own.
Going through a separation and eventual divorce, I wanted to get back to the essence of being betrayed, so I dug up some betrayal poems to help get me through this ordeal as it helps me remember that I have dealt with it before and continued to move forward with life. These are simple poems, but have strong emotions in them. When dealing with hurt and pain, sometimes the simpler things make it easier.
"Betrayed and Alone"
You hurt my heart and affected my soul Your lack of respect has taken its toll What once we shared, special and dear I sorta felt loved, whenever you near
Just your silly giggle, or a happy smile Just a kind word, hug, or kiss, made my life worthwhile I thought the bond we shared, was one of the very best Better than most everything, better than the rest
I thought my company you enjoyed, just chillin' you and me But my heart was broken, when my eyes were forced to see The same ones that berated, you chose to leave with them I stood alone all to myself, this loving heart condemned
I felt so lonely standing there, withholding tears behind my eyes My heart sobbed unmercifully, through invisible tears I cried The person in this world, that I admired most Left me alone without a care, but our friendship was the cost
My heart just sank into my soul, special feelings for you died I tried to resurrect with memories, girl I really tried The special feelings that I had, now are gone forever And they will not ever return, my heart is saying never
"Winds of Change"
A million words that I could speak, each one of you But the words that I speak now, will forever be true Honestly I care for you as a person, but I do not feel love Those feelings have died, now I must rise above
Yes I feel anger and betrayal, wounds have cut me to the soul But it's still hard to walk away, now that the truth is told So many memories of times we had, a lot of happiness and fun But memories is all that's left, when all is said and done
The winds of change are blowing in my heart, saying it's time to go I will not forget you or the times we shared, honestly I know
"Still Holding On"
We've spent so much time together, I miss you when we're apart The things we shared and did, have found a place in my heart I know I should be ashamed, of the way I feel inside Being friends with you is hard, when feelings of love I have to hide
Probably you don't know what real love is, what feelings are true But the shame I feel is because I know I don't feel the same as you The bond between us broken, a feeling once strong and true But that bridge is burned, a normal friendship will have to do
I do enjoy being around you, fun times when we're together Since the bond has been broken, soon the ties will be severed Winds of change still blowing, I hear them beckoning my heart Our friendship will someday end, and it will tear my soul apart | |

Thanks to all that read. Thank you MNDove, Broken Wings, velvetkitten, and smilescolorado for your uplifting comments. I woke up this morning feeling down and your comments lifted my spirits. Thank you much. Poetry is an outlet to release all the inner inhibitions that can clog the heart, mind, and soul. For those that write poetry, continue to be true to yourself. For those that read, live the moment, experience the experience, feel the feelings.
I decided that since I am here, I will post a poem I wrote today for my son.
"That's My Boy"
Gynecologist, doctor, staff and one head nurse Performing the ritual, many times rehearsed
Doing each their own task, the end result is nigh Mama-to-be hurting and frustrated, let's out a painful sigh
Seeing the crown of his head, it's almost time his birth Time for God's blessing, to begin his time on Earth
Daddy's encouraging mama, screams and grabs his hand A cut by the doctor, baby's in a brand new land
Doctor grabs the baby, suctions mouth and nose Checking heart and lungs, counting fingers and toes
Daddy's full of pride, eyes of excitement and joy With a loving smile, saying That's My Boy!! That's My Boy!! | |

Still on my betrayal theme.
"The Pain Within"
You think the pain you feel, is the worst there's ever been You think that you're so perfect, but still you live in sin You have all the answers, before the questions are asked You think your life is hard, being spoiled is such a task
All the pain that you feel, is from selfish obsession You couldn't have everything, there in your possession You want it all, everything, that your heart desires When you die, can you take it with you, to Satan's fires
I wish that you could feel my pain, a true pain inside If you could, I do wonder, whether you already would have died I did all I could for you, but still you don't care The tears running down my face right now, is my pain you wouldn't share
Why do I hurt so bad, why must I cry I've given everything I could, now I wish to die Tell me what I asked in return, what special demands I never asked for anything, that's why I don't understand
I just wanted your respect, for you to know somebody cared But you never cared at all, all this hurt I must bare I wish I could find a way, to let you go somehow I wish I could live without you, starting here right now | |

Kat, Thank you very much for your compliments. I enjoy your works as well as I wish I saw things the way you do. But that is the beauty of poetry, being able to see what others see through their eyes. I really was sincere when I said I am a fan of the ones that entered the old contest, including yourself. I am in awe sometimes at the writes. I hope everyone continues to write and post. Thank you again Kat.
I wrote this poem tonight when I really should have been in bed. But when the words are in my heart and from my heart, I have to release them. So here's my new one.
"If I"
If I made a promise, and truly did abide If I trusted you with my heart, and I never lied
If I picked you a flower, just because I cared If I listened to your feelings, remember all you shared
If I can tell to you, what is your favorite flower If I give you a say, and truly shared the power
If I wrote you a poem, saying that I love you If I showed you everyday, that what I wrote was true
If I kissed you with passion, out for all to see If I told you I love you, and meant it honestly
If I held you close, never wanting to let go If I called home from work missing you, just to let you know
If I nursed you back to health, when you feeling ill If I cleaned up your heart, after tears you spill
If I looked you in the eyes, said you are my one If I picked up your pieces, when you come undone
If I listened to all your words, even the blatant lies If I wiped away your tears, all the ones you cry
If I did all these things, and offered a heart that's true Would you go out with me, if I wanted you to | |

I wrote more poems today and will go ahead and post one of them while I am here.
"Wishes of the mind"
I want to be touched to feel the passion the heat from your fingertips To feel it burning in my mind The burning embers that are your fingertips I want you to touch and scorch I want to feel the heat engulf my flesh and send chills to my soul I want to feel the goosebumps in my heart
I want to be entranced to be mesmerized by your feminine essence to orbit around you to exist only with you for an eternal moment to hear only your voice in a room of noise to see only your eyes in an ocean of stares to crave only your touch, and shiver from that thought to feel your presence with eyes closed
I want to hear your lips whisper with thundering sounds of passion softly saying kiss me with your soul by means of a sexy pout
I want to feel your soul tremble when I find your heart's erotic spot
I want to hear you gasp my name and look at me with pleading eyes as smoldering emotional turmoil fills your body with chaotic pleasures
I want to feel the elctricity as your eyes beg my eyes to beg you for your touch
I want your body to quiver and shake at my touch as your soul and mind becomes invigorated like a virgin canvas being stroked by the experienced paintbrush of an artist
I want to become weak-kneed and dizzy as your touch becomes wine to an alcoholic mind, my only want is to drink from your hands until my mind is filled with confusion and all that exists is a state of ectasy
To have dreamed, but never experienced To die a lifetime just to live the fleeting moment of soul filled sexual fantasy To experience the erotic dream in a romantic mind Alas, all I can do is dream
Thank you for reading. | |
