In this life I've found peace With whats gone wrong I've been fortunate To resolve things Now with these days Passing so fast I find comfort alone Secluded from the world Hidden from fears Laying low Friends and family They may wonder Where I've been All I say is that I've been here #poem #poetry

My dear My dear You took the last train home There is no turning back You left alone What was Will never be again All I can say Is that i wish you the best And take care My dear sweet friend #poem #poetry

A melody on the winter wind It's calling me home It's been a while since I've been to this town I don't know how I feel This old house I no longer live here Yet I've returned For Christmas #poem #poetry

On days like this Music keeps me grounded It keeps me tethered So I didn't drift off into sadness A hint of Neil Young To a dash of candlebox And a bit of Elton John Into the mix Melodies throughout the day So I can focus on the tunes Tap with the beat As I continue moving forward #poem #poetry

Humor keeps me going The things I do to mask From Robin Williams To Billy Mays imitations Steven Wright jokes To my own stuff Deadpanning to high energy jokes Singing Sachimo songs at the office When things get the hardest A smile and a joke hides what is inside #poem #poetry

Beyond the cloud saturated sky I find a bit of Blue A crack in the abyss of grey I seek solace in that Gazing into the sliver of beauty Far above the trees On this dismissal winter day #poem #poetry

Walking into 2026

Passing days Of faded memories Holding onto a fleeting feeling A sense of love These things are gone Yet I hold hope To have them again Someday Someday #poem #poetry

Stardust memories Twinkling in my mind As I drift off to sleep #poem #poetry

I don't believe in destiny. Yet things work out in the end. Maybe it's just fools luck, Or just devine intervention. But I've made it through some hard things these past couple years. But i've made it through mostly unscathed.

Lots on my mind Lots on my heart I take it as it happens Soon it'll be a new year A new beginning For now I'll rest Wake me when it's the new year #poem #poetry

Watching the rain come rolling in Distant memories from long ago As it falls from my face Ripples on the ground Accumulated in puddles It's too late for staying dry today So I keep walking in this rain As I go on my way back home #poem #poetry

Your eyes show your smile Gentle as a gem I find myself getting lost Tripping over my words When you are near Yet I continue to hide my feelings The best as I can Because I don't want to lose you My dear sweet friend #poem #poetry

We cuddle up next to the fire Burning bright in my heart Moments when you are near Are all the things that I hold dear Take time to listen to my heart A tender feeling that i wish will last Beyond the time I'll have with you #poem #poetry

In the moment Let me say how I feel Something a kin to my heart Something that doesn't seem so deep Yet it resides in my heart These feelings I hold them dear Just as I do with you #poem #poetry

Get up Lots to do Lots left undone From previous days Time spent lounging Leaving work Unfinished Buckle down Start it all Today will be Productive #poem #poetry

I hold you in my arms Your head on my chest With each heartbeat You dive deeper and deeper into my soul #poem #poetry

Days gone by I sit with this enigma A feeling that remains Memories of nights out Cast in the stardust of yesterday I keep seeking for a feeling Of what is still real #poem #poetry

Flooded rivers Water creeping to the streets Blocked off Roads closed The places we've developed Taken back by mother earth Until we tame it again #poem #poetry

Cool winter rain Washing away the warmth Flood warnings Power outages A relentless bombardment Onto the surrounding streets Batteries drained Candles burnt to the edges Staying cuddled up Trying to stay warm Until the power turns back on #poem #poetry

Ticking of a clock Time winding down Take me back To a life once forgotten Passing hours Evening showers The quenching of my passion Moments shared As I get up To move on Take care My dear sweet friend #poem #poetry

Even after thd moments over And you are gone You'll always stay alive in my heart As long as the earth is still here And I'm around To carry these memories of you My dear sweet friend #poem #poetry

Another lovely afternoon with Izumi. #cat #cats #catsofbluesky #cuddle #cute

Bundled up Snuggling in bed A soft pur Grows louder With a warm love Boops from the wet nose As you curl up Next to me #poem #poetry #catsofbluesky #cat

Where do we go from here? A cold winter day Sing along to this tune As I follow my heart to tomorrow Beyond the wind and rain I'll find a calm tranquility Into the dark of night You'll find my light You'll find love that'll last Even after I'm gone Far Far From here #poem #poetry

It always gets better The morning sun Brings your heart back around Sitting on the stoop Waiting for another day Grit your teeth Show a smile Just wait here with me A little longer Chat with me for a while It always gets better As long as we have each other #poem #poetry

Where are you supposed to be? Trapped in this sapphire dream Cast out into the endless sea Someone is waiting for you Into the brackish abyss Will you ever wake Will you someday find me? #poem #poetry

I can't run away with my heart Chasing this feeling to the edges of the world Well surely fall far Far from the edge Into the great beyond I can't run away with my heart Let me go my own way So I don't get too attached 1/2 #poem #poetry

Move on my dear Walk along the fine lines They'll guide you To tomorrow The tears trailing behind you Puddles in footprints All along the road I know its hard But its for the best Now I lay it down And give it a rest Take care my dear #poem #poetry

A churning in my gut Blood and rain Turned to wine As the blissfully unaware Continue living Without a care in the world The burden of knowledge It isn't for everyone And it's better that way #poem #poetry

the wind is biting not unlike a thorn, but sun's warm apricity smooths the chill like silken touch #haikufeels #thorn #haiku #tanka #poem #poetry #winter I modified this tanka from what I posted on the haikufeels thread - I like this better, even if it doesn't have the "correct" syllables.

His #silver aura passed between the scrying glass and into her heart #poetry #retroartprompt #haiku

Down the line You'll find me Rest for a while Listen to my heart Follow the tempo As we ride to tomorrow Lonesome carnival Down the midway Lost and wondering souls Seeking comfort Beyond the bright lights You'll find me 1/2 #poem #poetry

Her smile I carry it with me Forever in my heart Remembrance of something lost Long long ago #poem #poetry

I wish to spend the everyday mundane with you. Each passing moment the greatest gift. Because in the end we can't get it back. So lay here with me, and listen to my heart. We can search for the morning sun, Whenever we are together. #poem #poetry

People come around Wondering how I've been Searching for what they won't find I ignore focused on my affairs Squared away Put nicely away To never be seen again Out of sight Out of mind As I move on Down the line #poem #poetry

Feet heavy on the concrete Built in protection Momentary shudder A cool breeze passes by Finding my way back home Picking up where we left off To see whats ahead Down the line #poem #poetry

I keep moving forward Love and loss The price to pay for living Yet I'm grateful for all this Because in the end I got to know you #poem #poetry

Moonlight reflecting in your eyes A smile of beauty fills my heart I never thought I'd see your love again #poem #poetry

Transcendence To reach the zenith of beauty The earth shakes off the remaining leaves Off the trees #poem #poetry

Bare trees Birds resting to stay warm in the nests I wait for the suns heat On this cold autumn day #poem #poetry

Moving ahead past the bare trees A road littered with leaves Winter is almost here as I decide for tomorrow Where I'll go Where I'll reside Who I'll be waiting for On the cold morning stretch of road #poem #poetry

I was excited earlier today because this arrived in the post. #fallout #falloutnewvegas #falloutnv #nor #newcaliforniarepublic #bethesdagear

Passing moments Change of reason I walk ahead To the end of the street Days gone by Rushing fast Past what was What is And what will ever be Into eternities end #poem #poetry

Life turns around to an easier time A lul in the day Feels kinda mundane But in the end It's all I've wished for Quiet days A peaceful future For the road ahead #poem #poetry

Late nights Spent Waiting for morning #poem #poetry

A sun kissed morning Frosty branches As I wake up to brisk air #poem #poetry
