This week, Colleen challenges us with the words Game and Trouble. Remember, synonyms only to write your poetry!!

Written as a Reverse Etheree, my synonyms are Weak and Struggle.


Why do people assume they understand?
It is hard for me to comprehend
To struggle, with an unkind life
Yet, it does not make me weak
Nor will I claim defeat
I look solely for
Empathy, warmth
In, sometimes
A cruel
World

I want to capture your flame

A single match, is all I require

Two bodies, entwined, no shame

Each one filling, the other’s desire

Heat, igniting the human form

Come closer, belong only, to me

A fury, the sensation, so warm

How perfect, two beings can be

I want to capture your flame

Where together, we will conspire

To forever be one, in the same

Two hearts set ablaze, one fire

The key, to fulfilling your perfect dream

Is in the energy you use, to bring it about

If you continue to be languid and lethargic

What you envision, will never be… No doubt.

Do not fear the storm

When life throws daggers at you

Show it you are fierce

Things Unseen- #poetry #FebruaryWriting

Tags

, , , , , , , , , ,


I am unseen, in this vast world I dwell

No one really notices I am here, as well

Walking around, with their heads in the air

Passersby never seeing, nor do they care

Making their way, to wherever they must

Leaving me here, with no hope, nor trust

That the human race will eventually awaken

Realizing, the path, so many have taken

Filled with self-doubts, a heart of defeat

No shelter from the cold, life on the street

No matter the weather, no matter the time

We remain unseen, a punishment, for no crime
