nature marches towards perfection but it's shape cannot be known I only know mistakes are costly punishing if I'm to be cut away from time is there consolation being part of something, bigger? when all is said & done death. the only eventuality I can be sure of we all fall to entropy #vss365

When silence shatters louder than my voice ever did, you'll turn back through the rubble of your choices and find I'm missing from the ruins. Love won't be waiting, only the shape of its absence, and you'll understand too late how it should've been given. #vss365 #poetry #silence

I only realized today that I used the wrong prompt. This was for #SenseWrds 121 Lol. Sorry!

let us take the long, meandering road through the hills disappear deep into the forest green hidden and sheltered beneath the canopy where dappled light or peeking star glimmer the same and let the dark of night hide us entire from the world I want to be that alone with you #vss365

It's ok to feel the hurt I say to myself when breeze sails over attentive trees rain has created a landscape of dreams lose time in that until calm #Poetry

we are giving sidelong glances and we're diving deep and walking together we are explaining our hearts with music we are stepping in time to a tune for now I shall take them in parts but one day there will be a synthesis and then, what will I find? I hope that it's your lips near mine #vss365

how does a poem end? there are always more beautiful words to write #poetry

life sometimes feels like you're always pulling on the reins trying to get the horse on the trail wondering when it will take you under the next low branch and then there's you & it's all effortless I can just be & there's touching and me, just falling in love over and over and over again #vss365

under fire, situations have gotten dire for many, living is no longer much fun in a world of trigger-happy guns. further depressed, not alone in that forlorn about the days ahead, deepened anxiety, and dread gonna be difficult to survive, to thrive, (or so it feels) society now a cult. 😔😔

it's not my style to push but we should be looking at each other's faces and it doesn't need to be more than walking together and talking and how would be if we just held hands? oh, the immeasurable joy and what if it wasn't enough and we kissed? because our hearts had something to say #vss365

I dressed my words in your favorite style, hoping they might catch your gaze. But your eyes slid past me, drawn to brighter colors not my own. My silence stitched itself into the air, while you never noticed the ache it carried. #vss365 #poetry #style

life reimagined soft petals of fall snowdrifts of summer upside down bodies of water spring decay buildings fall the ravens call zombies relent the new dawn #FoxProse

sequins and pearls decadence and lace midnight's dance the stage bright lights you are mine tonight we've got all the style that's needed to turn heads and make them watch and dissolve voyeurs in the night #style #vss365

we are polarized and I'm afraid in the potential demons glide with purpose I feel them like an undercurrent is it all as simple as living for strawberries in winter? or is it just that absinthe for the absent? fooling is into believing we have some resistance to history #vss365

rain falls a cool drops of Jupiter on skin early morning hours we hold hands as the sunrise shimmers a new day begins #FoxProse

something made me think of you just something small a photo I saw I wish I could send it but I'm not brave enough anymore I remember too well the silence words can be weapons but so can the lack of them

always one step in front of the other patterns routine and the cold in me craves your warm. & I am lonely under that painting in the sky every moment. a piece of art I wish I could share with you I am trying reaching grasping it's so exhausting for I can find nothing to make this bearable #vss365

my quiver, a bow the arrow nocked to pull it back, my heartstrings taut certain now my aim is strong and true; ready for this f l i g h t to embed me there so deep into your arms your eyes, my home #♡ᝰ.🖋️ #blueskyrelay #flight #poetrysky #poetry

"Ten thousand flowers in spring, the moon in autumn, a cool breeze in summer, snow in winter. If your mind isn’t clouded by unnecessary things, this is the best season of your life." ~ Wu-men ~ #autumnfeels #photography #daymoon #zenmoments

Her fingers vein-webbed grave turquoise spider the air. Reflex born of unceasing love, long memory, too-brief life. Her palm finds a ghost; her solitude #bearable, she carries on. I thank the gods what weigh your soul that we weren't hand-holding types. #vss365

Found a crack In sea bed Where a grumpy Serpent lives So selfish, It’s Sure Thing He will take More than he gives Not much of A housekeeper— Abysmal His abyss A trail Of burger #wrappers Lead me to A precipice Stand there In a diving suit & listen For his hiss #vss365

Sunset collides mysteriously with infinity birds know turmoil well and so they sing lullabies and deliver hopeful threads in the midst of day's dying #Photo #Photography 📷:mine

there is tea steeping biscuits removed from wrappers and the beginning of knowing and I know from the way your eyes hold me there is no stopping no power that can reverse my course I must keep going 'til one day the sight of you walking in through the doorway becomes my every day stay #vss365

Glass #pretense - We see right through. Sculpted to appear strong, it is more fragile than it looks. #RetroArtPrompt (tomorrow's) #poem #poetry #writing #chihuly #glassblowing #art #photography

and the path goes but two ways reveries, claiming it was all nothing but articles of faith inside we knew it would go this direction always had this feeling and sometimes it made you tingle sigh, slight gasp that the chance was always too good not to bite or something equally beautiful #vss365

it is not a matter of with for I'm never without and I believe even while I dream or lay in deep slumber I am conscious of you and I am certain that even as I breathe some minute mote of air was in your lungs too and my lips every nerve ending has burned the memory of your kiss #vss365

Lust is an ambient bleed an echo unspoken, rhythm of hushed caress, unseen in the night, lingers heat to find the morn willing in visions red and profound no time to take a breath instead, fire feeds the soul passion's painful, warm glow #weirdmicro

I was listening to you speak but distracted by the timbre of your voice and my lips longed to be pressed against your neck to feel vibrations the music emanating from your mouth brave & strong vulnerable caring gentle loving and now if you please a whisper I cannot elude my need any longer #vss365

But her eyes, her eyes pierced into yours, ripping your heart to shreds, devouring your soul to smithereens, and you are, you are just happy that she chose you, you are just grateful that she obliterated you. #poetry

the embers they lay waiting for oxygen and fresh fuel it is already more no outward indication necessary and you would let yourself loose in the dark if you didn't have to reconcile your past we will move closer get a glimpse of how beautiful it would be. then we'd have to drift apart #vss365

evergreen green sleeves emerald eyes verdant memories green river of desire running havoc in my veins spring dances but for a moment #poetry #WritingCommunity

Angelic only the other day I heard their voices over running water like a choir they serenaded as orange spiders walked the walls cough easing now if only slight no spiders nor angels ease sore ears #RetroArtPrompt

#SenseWrds 112 #ghazal #poetry

between rhythms their love had found the wisdom of the fall like a slow exhale of a long-held breath — now in calm of stillness #loveletters #prompt #LoveForAll #Autumn #photography

🪄 ✨ let’s drink coffee and write ghazals 🪄 ✨

#poetry #vss365 #pungent #gunviolence

never been described as audacious my skin is not the armour of the bold yet every syllable is a leap of heretic faith risking a flash of ire a degree of apathy or a response in silence i am not brave i am simply inspired #vss365 #audacious

your eyes have a light like stars at night they twinkle like the sun they blaze my face burns soaking in your gaze oh, these days we live in I just need a little more let's explore get lost there is a vast space to cross let me fill my days sailing the wondrous ocean of your heart #SenseWrds 110

I want to know what it's like to be cold with you to huddle for warmth slide hands up your sweater I want to gaze at something so beautiful with you humbled by the majesty holding hands I want to know what you feel like in the fabric of every day but I'm just looking out of windows #SenseWrds 111

there are lines between us I know you can see them & we're wondering what it might be like to follows those lines until we touch I long to pay attention to your breath there are forces at play we lie tell ourselves they are sentient that we got carried away that we had no choice no choice #vss365

- a gull wheels over surf, each cry a wound flung skyward. i wonder if the ocean hears, if its waves conceal a sentience that suffers, like me, from the ceaseless tides of loss. - #vss365 #poetry #read

tell me more stories of your life happy or sad for I know they will transport me and I shall watch you study your face and I will know your heart at the moments that made you who you are and always will this have depth the bass tones of the beat I hear with my ear pressed against your chest #vss365

Aedan played a familiar melody with faultless fingers. The guitar soon lured Mina's soprano verse into harmony with his tenor. However, Neither was prepared for an ethereal blending as Talision sprung a reverberating #bass that stunned the senses. When the song ended, Aedan sighed. "Wow!" #vss365

he searched all the recommended spots used the best bait rose with the sun slept with the fishes still the #bass eluded him he swore on his father's grave the smoked delicacy would be his he heard the engine fail before the boat capsized the bass welcoming him to his watery grave #vss365

I love you with a malformed heart, stitched together from scars and longing. It beats unevenly, yet always for you, a rhythm flawed but relentless. Every pulse is proof of devotion, even when it aches beneath its fractures. #vss365 #poetry #malformed

I can see every detail of your face in the flickering flames and I am experiencing multitudes who am I right now with you? for I am the same but also more & the story painted started with two but now how much is me? how much is you? I'm here to stay there is too much to say bye to #SenseWrds 108
