Fishing

My lure is plenty shiny enough
However my bait may not be liked by all fish
I will not change my bait
However nice the fish may be.

I bait my hook & cast my line
Waiting for my fish
Plenty of nibbles are received as time passes
However the big bite still eludes me.

Thinking of You

Never before have I met, a person like you
I never tire of your company
Feeling comfortable talking for hours & hours
Your gentle demeanour, places me at ease
A simple, yet amicable approach
I love the way you make me laugh
Your warm caring smiles, warm my heart
I see dancing eyes, full of life
Sometimes lost; hidden, deep in thought.

What are you thinking?

Alone with Myself

My fears are upon me
I stand alone
Is it good or bad
I stand alone.

Here surrounded by friends
Alone here within me
Here surrounded by family
Alone here within me.

If they were all strangers
I'd be just, alone
Left on a desert island
I'd be just, alone.

I feel no love, so I crawl
Into myself further, to be alone
Here I feel the loneliness, so I crawl
Into myself even further, to be alone.

Pain of Death vs. Love

Pain ... Agony
Heart-beat ... Heart-ache
Erratic pulse ... Crying/silent screams
Sudden stop ... Suffer loss
Dead ... Alone

Seeds of Love

Come!
Plant your seeds of love
In the chamber of my womb
Let us create
For creation is variety & spice of life.

Grow!
Then blossom
This... our small creation
A piece of ourselves
Given to the world.

Our children.

Life Time

Life is a never-ending circle
Where time is obsolete
But in life, time is precious
For as time passes
Life become obsolete.

Sunshine (written for my daughter - Emma)

You are my sunshine on a cloudy day
You bring joy, where there was none
I have watched you grow & blossom
Into the lovely young lady, I see today.

Broken

If only thou could believeth, how much pleasure & happiness thou giveth unto thee
Only to taketh away, leaving thee in much sorrow & despair
For I loveth thou with all thy heart & needth thou
To repair all anguish of thy broken heart.

It's Complicated!

Is this heaven?
or is this hell?
it's so very hard to tell!

I love you
but I hurt
I know you're confused!

I see it's simple
you do not
so it's complicated!

Wind of Change

Emotions like clouds, brewing up a storm
Rolling over a moonlit sky
Clouds bursting into tears of rain
Hoping someone will listen.

Listen to the sound of thunder
After the lightning flashes
Hear the wind howling
Under what seemed such a peaceful sky.

The Subconscious

Life's a fragile dream, floating in the subconscious mind
Like a Willow tree sways in the breeze
For anything that we build to easily, may break under a strong persons stare
As thin ice cracks & melts in the sun's glare

Life's ultimate destiny is death, then death is our ultimate destiny
So what's the meaning of life?
Experiences in life are full of feelings, emotions that twist & turn within
Like a stomach twisted in knots

Although we try to forget some feelings, we seldom do
As subconsciously, they are always remembered.

Best Friend Dreaming

I sit here talking to you, being the best friend I can be,
Because I know that's all I'll ever be.
The amazing friend that always gets you through,
The one that's always there for you!

You'll never see that I know you best,
These feelings that will never rest.
Stupid little hearts with names,
I really hate playing those games!

So I'll just be a great friend to you,
I'll stay loyal, I'll stay true.
I'll hold my head up, I will not cry,
Cause I'm just a friend dreaming!

Stranger In The Night

Alone... in a strange, dark misty world of shadows
Here I am a stranger, cold & numb
Not only to this world, but also to myself
I can see myself in this world
And yet I am asleep, dreaming
I smell nothing, hear nothing... as though I don't exist.

I feel my breath on my face, hot in the cold
But cannot touch my face
Eyes are watching as I walk through a maze of torment
Trenches of a long forgotten war
Bloody skeletons crawling with rats & maggots, buzzing with flies
I feel nauseous & afraid.

I scream & yet no sound comes from my mouth
I wish to erase my vision, but my mind is wide open
Although not believing all I see
But taking it all in just the same
What does it mean?
And why am I the stranger in the night?

How Do I Tell You?

Another day goes by,
I keep quiet.

My heart is thumping,
My heart is aching.

I hear it in my ears.
It won't be silenced.

A little voice telling me,
Tell him! Tell him!

I feel like shouting,
YOUR MINE, your mine.

It's more than I can bear,
Love hurts!

A Friend's Love says:
" If you ever need anything;

My Forbidden Fruit

Walking late one afternoon, we meet again
My forbidden fruit
Your long hair blowing in the breeze
And a look of uncertainty in his eyes.

Now thinking of my forbidden fruit
Your hair, eyes & gorgeous smile
Remembering a time full of memories
The love, the hurt, the hate, the love.

Now longing to taste forbidden fruit once more
Longing to feel his tender touch
And to respond with my own
How do you feel my forbidden fruit?

(My mother said: "you've got to watch out for the quiet ones". She calls them :- Forbidden Fruit)

My World is Spinning

Beautiful sparkling eyes glance my way
Carrying me off into the abyss
Where I swim in a sea of passion
Lost in your hot, sweet, lingering kisses
I'm drowning in pleasure
My world is spinning.

Cascading hair, falling softly on your bare skin
Tender caresses, electrifying touches
I feel fire deep within
An overwhelming ache of desire
A need to be fulfilled
My world is spinning.

Not Truly Mine

I lay beside my pillow and clutch to it so tight.
Pretending it's you beside me, all throughout the night.
This is how I sleep, knowing you lay near her.
I hope she knows how lucky she is, to have you in her life.

A tear runs down my cheek, as I remember the times we have together.
Although I feel like a criminal, because I steal time that is not truly mine.
You will always be special to me, even though I'm not your wife.
I wonder if you'll ever love me enough, to fully enter into my life.

Sea of Love

Love is like the sea
It surges with passion
Waves bow down to the couple
Who frolic it's moonlit shore.

While swimming
Carried off in a rip
Water engulfs her mind & body
As if giving a hug of death.

The sea roars like thunder
Crashing down on it's sandy shore
As he cries out in anguish
For that which the sea had taken from him.

The sea becomes gentle
Washing up her nakedness
Just briefly, as though saying goodbye
Before proceeding to take back, that which it has already stolen.

Waiting... Wishing... Wanting!

Sitting here all alone
Waiting for your call
Longing to see your eyes, your face
Wanting to feel your embrace.

I want to reach out & feel your love
Our hearts connecting like a glove
Thinking of you all the time
Wishing you were all mine.

Hoping one day
We won’t have to play
This hide and seek game.
Waiting... Wishing... Wanting!

Two Share

Don't hate me! For all I have ever done is love you
I would kill to be with you, even die for you
How could you ever choose another
I just want to be with you
Wanting you to be mine
Now & forever 'til the end of time.

Babe! You've got that magic touch
How I long for your touch
Holding & caressing my body, mind & soul
Feeling your soft velvet kisses
Kisses of intense heated passion
That only two can share.

We... not me

Remember... it's no longer me, it's we

Me will remain important
But we shall always preside over all things
For how can me be eternally happy
If we are not

If we are unhappy
Then me will always be unhappy.

I'm not supposed to...

I'm not supposed to love you,
I'm not supposed to care,
I'm not supposed to live my life,
Wishing you were here.

I'm not supposed to wonder,
Where you are or what you do,
I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself,
I fell in love with you!

Love

Love can love you & love can hurt you.
Love can feel like glory & love can feel real gory.
Love can make you glad & love can make you sad.
But if you never jump into love & experience it.
Then you've not truly lived life fully,
Until you've loved & been loved, in return.

The Spirals of Life

The world's a busy place... the spirals of life turn regardless of time... it's when we stop & place our time into it that matters.

When you achieve... those must be times, when you've stopped & put time into it.

Let us thank our Mothers...
We give thanks to you, the Mothers of this world

Let us also give thanks to Mother Earth
As she has born many labours since the dawn of time
For this we are truly blessed and grateful

Roses for Mother

If roses grow in the afterlife, please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my mother's arms and tell her they're from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her very much, can you see her lovely smile?
Then place a kiss upon her cheek and hug her close for a while.
As remembering her is easy, I do it everyday,
But there's an ache within my heart, that just won't go away!

In the Afterlife


Our loved ones never die,
They simply help illuminate the sky.

Lighting the sun and stars, by day and night,
Vicariously awaiting by moonbeams bright.

So they can catch a glimpse and do not totally overwhelm,
Those loved ones they wait to greet, upon entering their realm.

Losing Someone

Throughout my life,
I have been afraid,
Of losing those I love!

So now I am a little curious,
Is there anyone out there,
Afraid of losing me?

My Dear Children

My Dear Children, you are my little rays of sunshine,
That glitter and shine in my heart, my treasure chest.
This chest is full of memories of your humour, kindness and love,
That you give so freely in abundance, which never seems to wain.

As you all so bravely, make your way through life and the world,
I stand here watching from the sideline, cheering you all on.
Helping you learn from your defeats and celebrate your victories,
To always keep smiling and guide you all to land back on your feet.

I cheerish you all... one, two and three!!

My Special Friend

There are so many things I'd like to say.
But that would take me all day.
Now I wonder where to start.
Guess I'll say whats in my heart.
There is one thing I know that's true.
I'm so blessed to have a friend like you.

Thanks for always being there.
And showing me how much you care.
As my new life starts to unfold,
And I am learning how to take hold.
There are times I don't know what to do,
But I know I can always turn to you.

Our friendship is one of a kind,
One most people never find.
I never knew from the start,
Just how much you would touch my heart.
I'm so glad you came into my life,
You have filled it with so much delight.

If the time ever come for us to part,
You'll always be right here in my heart.
You'll always be my best friend,
Forever and always until the end.

Remember Him With A Smile

Please still your aching heart, as you are loved by many
Please still the hollowness inside, as you are full of memories
Remember him, as he lived and allow your feelings to overwhelm you
Remember him with joyful tears and know you were truly blessed
To have shared so many loving years together
To have shared all your sorrows together
And when your time here on this plain is done
You will be reunited with him eternally
So remember him with a smile
As he will be smiling with you!

NOTE.... these are a few of my poems,,, I've used inspiration from a variety of the life experiences of my friends, family and myself.
Have also had ideas from watching movies... I just need to pause it when I have an idea and write it down, then go back to watching the movie. Later I play with the words and the idea, until it sounds right to me.
I try to write most of my poetry in a third person, so that others feel they can relate the poem to themselves.
I hope you managed to find something amongst this collection you liked... cheers thanks for reading & sharing =D
Bare hugs
Emz

PS: I am dyslexic, so I love the challenge of writing. It takes me many days before I'm happy with a poem I've written, I'm rather critical of myself.
Therefore I hope I've not transposed too many letters in words & structured them, to show my "freedom of expression".
