A Poetic Piece by Scorpio

[How Could It Be]

With every move, they jump on my back
Refuse to let up and cut me some slack
The mind is weary for it needs some rest
To prepare for the move they will think up next

Never said I didn't have any flaws
But tried to live life with purpose and cause
How Could it be, I say unto you
What comes from the heart is forever and true




Why would I want to jeopardize
And tarnish the gift that was given from the skies
Dealing with the hand that was dealt unto me
I dream what it's like to be simple and free

You have to listen for I call your name
Relieve the pressure, for it's all in vain
One often wonders how could it be
I give my all and people turn on thee




Remove the shades, so I can see the sun
To feel the presence of the only one ;D
Ease my trouble and relieve the pain
The cloudy skies and pouring rain

Affected by this circumstance
I could prove my worth if I was given the chance
How could it be I’m treated this way
Is this the price that one has to pay

Hello scorpio,

What a joy it was to read your work..

How could it be? ;D

Couldn't resist, your's is simple yet marvelous poem.

I am not a poet, but I wanted to give a hidden message just so. (forgive me for my poetic manners, they don't follow any rule) ;D


A 'human nature'
that I too have,
to race to lead
and rule the pack.
Weary mind that doesn't get rest,
call it my 'Ego' at its best.

The admittance of self
not reassured by a 'but'
brings a life to live
with cause and purpose,
and along with some trust.
When I lied
I so thought it to be true,
was a heart not mine
but of the ignorant new.


The heart then said
I have virtue and I am fine.
Why I would bring down
the skies not mine?
So I went on and on
with illusions on my mind
'I am right, simple and free
and you are far behind'

A king was made in me,
not born but thought to be.
You loved me as a human,
the emperor you didn't wish to see.
But I called your name
as I own,
before I knew
you and all were gone.
Blind to the face of truth,
I pitied my king
and I cried for peace
and to forgive your sin.

The sun was shining,
eyes blinded by tears,
I fought for light
when it was so near.
Never thought
of pain I gave
never asked for your fears.
And then as you turned,
I knew that you were always so dear.

Now rain would pour
on you and me alike.
But I hope it heals you first
before I’m relieved of mine.

Now I know
the place I am I create for life,
the life I that choose
and then pretend to survive,
is not circumstantial at all
but creation of my own mind.
How could be..that I never realized?

[Edina]

Great poem Grave!

(forgive me for my poetic manners, they don't follow any rule)

As long as they follow ours on here, it's fine.

j/k

NeverTHELESS, everyone should understand, we need to have some rules/guidelines in order to prevent chaos and wars on this forum.

[JTwolf]

sounds good Edina....maybe it would be good if you were to re-state those rules and guidlines so that everyone is clear on them? Just in the interest of negating chaos and wars. ;D

[Edina]

We will do that.

The only problem is, Eric and I seem to have different rules at times. First, WE have to discuss this and agree on them, then I'll let everyone know as well.

[JTwolf]

Good luck and thanks...to both you and Eric for the provision of this place in time and for all the hard work that you put in on it. Yes, this is an Illusion, but that hard work is a very real illusion!! And it is appreaciated!

[How Could It Be]

Grave

that was a simple, but marvelous poem

Your poem complimented my poem wonderful


I asked the question HOW COULD IT BE

You answered the question with WHY IT WAS

That was cool....

Grave(love and aprreciation)

[JTwolf]

Indeed...both of you have wonderful words in your poems....I'm still trying to wrap my mind around it all though

The wolves are running
in the wolf dream.
The wolves are hunting
in the wolf dream.
The moon shining full upon him as he sleeps...
he jerks awake with remnants of the dream
it's time to hunt,
it's time to scream his howl at the dream
that haunts him as he sleeps
the last of his breed.
The only one left to run through the trees,
the only one left
he sniffs the breeze
always hoping to smell
always hoping to hear
one more song
from the wolves that used to be...
his pack and his mate sleeps
the deep sleep
while he dreams
the Wolf Dream.
