Because they are insecure and afriad of being direct because it may effect their relationship with the other person in an all ready shaky situation, but they may be afriad of basically losing what they all ready have even though they know it is not right.

Freedom is the little bird
that flies without a sound
the one trapped inside my head
as I lye here on the ground
bound by my own indecisions
and my own loss of dreams

If my bird should ever stop
and forget how to fly in me
I shall watch its hopes die
and hope may surely flee

Let little birds fly from their cage
let the child in you free,
everyone must learn to play
and laugh again with glee

the world may be turning around
but its simple what we see
there is the child we left behind
the child standing behind you and me.

(its the best I could do, but the word provocked these thoughts. thanks for posting that word.)

If you don't let the people who love you, love you, then how will you know what love is?

a poem read by 1000 people will have a differant impact on each of them. No one person sees something the exact same way as another. Art is expression, we put it out there for the world to perceive in any way they so choose. Personally, I liked your peice, it was edgy, I like edgy, life is NOT all cutsey and fuzzy junk. Life is real. So I say, get real, doesn't bother me.

Very pretty, I liked it very much.

WOW!! THAT was Awesome! you are good. That had me right to the end. Loved it.

Your delicate meaning is tearing me apart
What seemed to find a place
Laughs torridly for the art
Of your kisses
Hands clenching
Fist misses of the sorrow you dwell in
What is your home like my love?
Do you live on lovers wings
Or twitch on a ravens promise?
Would you
Could you
Will you touch
Some place in me to call my own?
Will you
Won’t you
Caress my soul to give me a heated joy
Maybe even…fill the mysteries void
Do you
Don’t you
Won’t you let me touch your lips?
Just give me a moment
To let my fingers kiss
So I can touch a shadowed angel
Without a moments regret?
Would you
Could you
Let me touch you at the seams
And not pull away
Would you let me show you
I love
And I mean what I say?

I love this, very nice. Welldone

The Vagary of Bare Trees

The rough touch of madness
Is surrounded by prickly promises
And searing miseries,
Why than must I suffer the unconscious
Of visions I don’t really seek
But seek to seek me
In a surreal vernacular vagary
That pulses to me like to much wine
Poured straight into the meat beneath my skin
To saturate and thrust my veins into fire
And tempt my hand
In visceral dreams of whim?
Why must I trudge my crescent soul
Illuminated by struggling venom
Nudging the soul to get out of control,
Why than shots for poisonous poison thoughts?
Why than the discreet gracious child
Laying waste in inner sanctums
If the trees are bare here with fruitless curves
Of whirling words that do not land on ears
But rather land on deadly crows wings?
They will only fly once they have had their fill
Of the carcass?
I’m lying on the outskirts of the open mind
Upon an opaque floor
Watching you beneath me
As if I could see the shadow of time
Play with the mysteries
That were once our Milky Way
At the breast of Mother Earth.,
And here I will stay
Only as long as ephemeral time shall pass
Upon the lips of mourning over lost realities
And the perverse caress of winters lick
On a phoenix wing.

Rabbit

Wash your old bones away
I’m planting a new verse
I had nothing to say
But it could be worse
I could’ve had a V-D
Or maybe won the lottery
Maybe I’ll stick to poetry
Though there is no money
I still think it’s funny
How I plow through words
And find a hidden meaning
No matter how absurd
Tonight my brain is teasing
The hell out of me
I had a good thought
Just a few seconds ago
If I don’t find it
Just skip to the end
You’re bound to find Alice
She is soothing the rabbit
But he changed his direction
Now she can’t keep up
Her torch is going out
But the flowers are lovely
Sitting, she breathes perfume deep
And wonders why her sister
Hasn’t come looking for her
The caterpillar has a game
But Alice doesn’t like it
Forgetting where she came from
Alice buys herself a bong
And what her sister finds
Is Alice and the Queen
Knocking over cards for fun
Sweet Alice changed directions
And the Rabbit knew it
For you see, the Rabbit
Is only loyal to the Queen

I lost a brother to hagkins limphoma, he was 27 and he died two days after my birthday. I'll be 32 in february. I don't usually celebrate my birthday. I am thankful for having been there for my brother and mother before they passed away. 23, wow, that is a hard thing to deal with so young. I think I may know how she feels to some extent, in some ways. Godbless your girlfriend and you, and thank you for your wishes for me. sending you both hugs of light and love. Nica

their words were, they think they caught it in time. So yeah, I'm thinking I have it, if not that, I already have the cells that cause cancer in my uteris, so its a toss up. I have been sick too long for something not to have been really wrong with me, lets just put it that way.
and tahnk yoiu very much for your wishes, it is very appreciated at this time. hugs

Thanks writergurl, and yeah, I know you, your a cool person. and thank you so much. hugs

This is a sort of rant, kind of, well maybe not, just a point of admission.
Well, some of you know I have been sick for a long time on and off, well, today I went on a long journey to a town far away.
Today I found out I may have Chronica Lukemia and so for the next few years, I will have to be watching my blood carefully for two reasons, cervicle cancer or lukemia, or both. so, if ya'll have any prayers or anything you can send up tonight, I would very much appreciate it.
I don't know what this year will hold, but it seems my cards are being delt all ready, one by one. And they don't look good so far.

So, I send you all my love and my hugs and my snugs. Your friend always, Veronica, aka, Nica, aka, lilwick86
