I,m looking for something,

that can't be found,

It's from a future not yet invented.


Looking for an answer,

to a question not yet asked.

Debating with the demented.


A passenger

who has never disembarked.

Looking for the...

Hang-up

I surge the tune
I give rise to the wave amplifying the wings,
When the wing breakes down
I sink in the deep ocean.
Again I rise and surge the tune
I cross the river, the ocean, the horizon
I play with the mountain on sprinkling the water.

I beg thee

Oh! I beg thee, sing that song
All day long
I shall sit and listen.

Perhaps thou hast said everything in the path of the songful conveying feat,
Likely thou hast said in the lyrical beat
where lies the nought from the beat to the beat; I...

CRYSTAL CLEAR

CRYSTAL CLEAR

Tossed in the storm
Cold but also warm.
Life meeting death
Underwater breath
Strange as it seems
Living man's dark dreams

Life well, it is a story
Let's give God Glory
Tomorrow that we can't see
A hope of all we'll be

...Because now I am tormented and hurt by the One-World, which, with an increasingly evil desire, like a thorny plague, is secretly setting up obstacles against me. Both trust and the moral order are crumbling; brother-sister steals away, wolf...

Memories Painted Red

Memories painted red
Play inside my head
My soul aches for release
A painstaking grief

Time never stops,
An incessant ticking clock
With granting of time
Without reason or rhyme

My desire is to say
Goodbye to yesterday
Memories...

    How can we "Subscribe" to an author, so that when they post a new poem we get a notice of it? That would be a really useful thing to do -

      absolutely! Under each poet name you can click the 'favorite' button. You will then appear on their fan page and be notified when they post a new poem :)

    This new set up of poetry.com is a bit difficult to understand. No views are visible . views encourage a person.

      HI Anisa, welcome to the site! If you scroll to the end of the poem you can read information including: date poem was written, date poem was submitted to the site, how long it takes to read the poem and also the number of views. It can take a while for your poems to get noticed - one way of getting out there is to promote your poem. It then gets featured on our homepage in the promoted poems section and you can enjoy your views rise there ;)
