Total Disregard

Feign your ears are closed
so you won’t have to listen
to anything said.

***It seems my poetry is getting shorter... but I'm almost caught up!***
Got YWS?

You judge others upon their actions, but you judge yourself by your intention.

Farmland

honey lipped, I take a sip of dew so purely fresh
morning-laden, down to rest upon the tips of grass blades
one hint of perspiration on my ‘stache, the warmth peaks
sunlight spills over green, far as the eye can travel
gold illuminates the barn, now rust-colored yet high-standing
bold, God smiles down at those who work hard
for every inch of this land
Our lives our set within its breath.
Got YWS?

Proud to Sin

The lambs have been told to repent or die
Splattering the ground, biterness resides
Seems you can't do one good thing in this life

Gurgling the hallelujah every morning,
I get up and lace my fingers around
the rosary choking at my neck.

I have a relationship, one by myself
your rules cannot take this away from me.
It is all I have of him and it is pure.

I will eat chicken on Good Friday,
and sure, I will have fish too.
That makes me a better Christian, right?

Humans err in their ways, you've seen it all before.
It is who we are and who we will continue to be.
Got YWS?

Droplet's Journey

the raindrop turns from clear to blue
as it falls beneath the tides of seas
then transforms to a brilliant green
that snugs up in the ocean's grass
whirls of water suddenly lift it up
a mere sparkle is the new raindrop
now it glitters over vast waters
so far and wide you'll see this droplet
caught in a bigger droplet called Earth
where any drop can have its greatness
Got YWS?

You judge others upon their actions, but you judge yourself by your intention.

Treading Waters

My heart races and will pound
Like a jackhammer breaking ground.
My feelings make me trip over a word
So a jumbled mess is what's heard.
Your finger's smallest touch
Is what makes me want too much.
And the day when I shall fall
Is the day I'll lose it all.

We are tripping over stones;
I don't know where to step,
For if I should stumble
And go down
I'll hit hard.
Not on the comforting grass,
But on concrete.

I see it now, what is being,
Yes, this is all that I am seeing.
So answer one question
What was it you saw?
And who am I now?
Because if I am
Pure of the heart,
Who are you now,
But a martyr from the start?
Got YWS?

You judge others upon their actions, but you judge yourself by your intention.

Once More

It's true my dear ones,
Never one to commit.
Toying with the soul,
Grapples onto good;
Those supporting hands
Are meant to destruct.
Playing with a heart
And left broken here.
The smile that he gave,
Those grinning creases,
Are all left behind
Tucked away in dreams
Filled with memories
Of what was always
And the could-have-been

You ought to be sorry
For this pain you caused,
And all of the journey
So selfishly paused
It's the adventure
So seldom seen
From a young mind's eye
Where the thoughts gleam
Got YWS?

You judge others upon their actions, but you judge yourself by your intention.

Wisps of dove-gray dew swim
above my face, a tongue-taste
away; lace entwined within a
finger grasp, not meant to last
this long. Pull and push like
waves of grace, oh no, no
I won’t be going home so
stay a little while longer
longer while we
sway away.

Flickers dimmed by our wretched sins
candle molded hot burnings
lustful peach, so soft and
sweet upon her bed
we weep, we weep
tired lips from
tired tongues
taste bitter,
salty, and
wet.
Got YWS?

Faith is for those who believe;
Those whose flickering flame is gone,
and they can't see through the blackness.
They're doubt is gone
subsided into steady flow.
Thought set straight, we lead
into the dark
with our heads held high
and our hearts, higher.
We need that prayer of a hope
consisting of necessary comfort.

Faith is not an easy task,
because you will not be given light.
You're left wondering, hoping,
if there's a better world or life
beyond what is now.
That is faith, my friend.
It may be foolish to dream of things we can't see or know,
but it's better than facing the darkest unknown.
Got YWS?
