calm, comfort, healing, Night Owl Poetry, Paul Militaru, poems, poetry, Serenity, silence, Silent Blessings, Tranquility, water

Hidden under, Down below

While Gently running Waters stow

Serenity to make us Whole

Tranquility in Mind and Soul

Is Stillness found within the Heart

Silent Blessings we Impart

A place to Gather, to Bestow

Where Healing Comfort overflows

Saving Face

The mirror lies
Reflections tell tales
Truth
But she won’t accept
The lines of her life

The cosmetic cover up
Hiding the scars
Of years gone by
Brushed on perfection
Cut with a knife

Lines and imperfections
Smoothed over
Chemical peels
Strip her past
Beauty is only skin deep

Adorning the colors
Made up for the day
Ready to take on the world
Wrinkled
The lines are too steep

Hands grip the mirrored frame
She’s afraid to break the hold
Worry and fret
Become her regret
Alas, she is just growing old

moon 43015
Mystery Surrounds the Colors of Night

Uncovering Beauty that Shines ever Bright

Embracing the Skies with Magical arms

Gloriously Reflecting its unearthly Charms

With the Light that Shines from yonder Star

To Hide the Darkness from places afar

Guiding our Journey lest we Wander about

Giving new Hope for those who may Doubt

The Wondrous Heavens that Shine ever Bright

Enchantment, Surrounding the Colors of Night

Friday Fantasy ~ Time Slips Away

death, lomging, lost love, minutes, moment, mourning, Night Owl Poetry, poems, poetry, soul, time, Time Slips Away

Sinking in the Moment
Lost in the Minutes
Longing Again for that day
Lifeless and Barren
The Sands of my Soul
Mourning, as Time Slips away

Unending seconds
Unravel my Heart
Searching to Find you again
As I sit here alone
In an Instant I know
My Longing has all been in Vain
