Nostalgic for a time I've never seen,
past or future
stuck somewhere between.
The milk has passed its use by date.
I'm feeling much the same,
in the middle
of the moments
where I dream.

Feel this write βοΈ ππΆπ΅
Rhythms rhymes intensifies
Rolling waves tossing
feelings
Rocking the curves long lines
Smooth depths jazzy jagged corners
Sweating swearing as bottoms borders
Releases adrenaline
heated peaks
Taking shadows long ways
The hushsounds
Of what once was..
What couldn't continue
Withers in me β
Nostalgia
Unwanted rot,
Decay of wishes
Wishes lay down
In a grave of neurons
Where aging claims them
When black turns white....

Nostalgic moments , lost in times lines
Hardwired in selective what ifs
Yet knowing butterflys effects
How could this spinning rocks
Trajectory fill losses pains paintings
Taking brushes fresh canvases
Teaching every now is histories
Technology's chances at giving
Life's freshening
nature's
As we get older
The nostalgic nature of
Memories become
So precious, we might choose to
Lose ourselves in them.

#Emoetry prompt for 3/11 is #modest
Mellow, mostly by choice.
Okay with the sidelines.
Dismissing all the praise.
Effortlessly low-profile.
Silent about my wins.
Taming the inner ego.

Thank you! I wish Iβd noticed that damn typo
Caught daydreaming
I must confess
I imagined myself
healed,
a centered in
light,
reaching inside
for loveβ
Only to wake up
and see the miles
of road ahead

Here on the fringe,
a painful song
knows me
too well,
so well,
it tangles
me until I
am vine
without the
wine,
it progresses
and retreats,
a wave,
bound
not to save,
bare shins
and skins
raw to
its choir,
hour after hour

Women
should be
modest,
cover,
themselves,
hide,
their sexuality,
obscure,
their desires,
pretend,
to be virgin
but vixen
on demand
#emoetry #poetry
Honesty is the keystone.
When I admit to myself
That telling the world is conceit,
Modesty recommends itself.
Am I brave enough to listen
To honesty applied to me?
Not every day.

Harmony seems far away
on those lifeless days,
when your own body
feels like hostile territory
& though hope
intends well,
it's locked up tight
behind a brick wall
then I'm thankful
for a lifeboatβ
someone to hold
the lantern light
when everything
is dark inside.

Lovely alliteration and gorgeous poem
Listless, #lifeless,
longing for loveβ
the lighting dimmed
from deep within.
Luminous sun rays
languidly lounge,
light forming this crown.
Lamenting, even though
the light still glows:
lively, your lovely laughterβ
liminal, from the other side.
#emoetry #lifeless #poem #poetry
Sad haiku but beautiful
a cold chart of dates
a lifeless double entry
not the shape of love
#emoetry #lifeless #haiku #writing #writingcommunity #micropoetry
a #lifeless Earth
left behind
by billionaires
in sole #lifeboat
to the Moon, Mars
or Europa
to terraform
despoiled in turn
the 99%
#gape, awakening
from entrancement
find water, food
unfit unsafe
daylight savings
a millennium
to repair rebuild
without resources

Love this haiku
lack of sleep drains
conscious yet lifeless
inhumane brain
#emoetry #lifeless #haiku #poetry #writing
No longer lifeless;
I've arisen like a lich
Rattled by dry bones.

#Lifeless I lay,
lost another day,
stuck while the world
keeps moving.
βItβs pointless to try,
you just werenβt meant to fly,β
speaks the voice of doubt,
all-consuming.

So gorgeous M
Jolted Memory jolted memory - lightning struck in the softness of sleep undisturbed some thoughts brewing β emerged before they were uttered and set free into this world talk labeled cheap yet in the pauses the unsaid commenced filling whole volumes between the times in witching hours witching songs writing themselves a bell that tolls, a well that dried up being replenished as reservoirs renewed parched throats and parched minds parchment rustling in the spaces between hot concrete cooling under a steady pour new rain taking away pain, thirst and memory alike β not mine as I remain thirsty for life Matthias Geh

Jolted Memory
original poem in #alt-text
Love the rhythm!
#emoetry #vss365 #poetry
A hymn for the holy,
A sin in disguiseβ
His mistress in music,
And well-practised lies.
No #modest refrain;
Glissando will reign.
She slinks into places
True #harmony wonβt claim.
Too proud for the altos,
Too base for the lead,
This semisoprano
Where shadows will feed.
Love this
#vss365 #lightning #harmony #Emoetry #modest
No sky-shattering passion with tornados
Just harmony with modest lightning strikes-
that's pure devoted love which shan't close.
