The purest of loves
Is untarnished by people
Been holding me close
For years it has grown
So deep within it branches
Indestructible
A softness, a peace
Its safety has provided
Unconditional
It is mine alone
Impossible to deny
Cannot replicate
Falling back on it
This love shall always protect
Inexplicable
Unexpected blow Heart aches deep within the chest Sudden pain seeps through From a past mistake An injury bleeds and bleeds The chocking pain lives A crippling fear Causes error in judgement Thus the heart suffers A stabbing regret Inflicting such misery Hurting all alone A faltering trust In such a weakening self This horror unleashed B's Poetry Challenge #27
Unexplainable
A mind-altering lightness
Leaving one afloat
Consuming feeling
Which awakens the senses
Love, the only truth
Quite irrational
When caught in its endless web
Willing surrender
Insignificant
Small, almost dismissible
Has a hollow heart
Craving a true love
One to fill her heart with joy
Left empty no more
This tiny creature
Still retains minimal hope
But shall it remain?
Wishing to leave home
To venture out on my own
Fearlessly wander
Confining duties
Restricting regulations
Keep me in my place
A reality
True, but too bitter to face
My home is not home
The world still beckons
I can hear its siren call
I will soon answer
Tick tock goes the clock Indicating the passing of time Fearful or hopeful? The highest value No good can even compare Can never be sold Useless to the dead But daunting to those who live Threaded memories Joy can spend it well Sadness wastes it every day Infinite it isn't
Fear is a warning A signal to stop and think Reassess your life A strong stabbing pain Ordering intervention Growing over time Indecisiveness A paralysing feeling Hiding true meaning Trusting your instinct Will kill the horror within Prisoner released
She emits warm light
Embracing the world from on top
The source of all life
Great is her power
As she rises above each day
Beauty in yellow
A scorching anger
Can burn all those below
Such furious heat
A loving fire
Desired by all beings
Feared when merciless
Defeated at last
A fallen dishonored flag
Natives take the land
Foreign rulers leave
While dragging their flag in shame
Their ships take them home
Allies are honored
As civilizations merge
Different is one
Peace erased the past
Foreign and native combined
They create a whole
Venus flaming high
In the pitch darkness she shines
Extreme is her heat
A beauty goddess
Desired by the lustrous
Ethereal and pure
Grows stronger with age
A new form every era
Modern: unyielding
