When all hope is lost, and you’ve faced all your fears
The shine in your eyes still be seen through your tears
All those battles you fought, and all that you lost
Your courage will still show in you, no matter the cost
Though you feel so alone, and your heart runs so low
Friends will still come to your rescue, you should already know
They’ll carry your torch, until you can stand
And guide you out, from the dark of the sand
Your courage will win, as sure as the sky
To remind you, even during the darkest goodbye
That this too shall pass, and soon all will be
Though it may seem hard now, patience will set you free

All hope is lost
-
World we once knew
The world we once knew, had now melted away
Only shadows of what we had remained
The fabric of our lives was now changed
We looked for a glimpse of hope today
Blankets of sadness steadily moved in
As we mourned what would never be again
A deep feeling that all was lost
Stayed with us at all cost
But then something changed inside
We looked around and realized
In the depths of the darkest night
Faint lights still glowed with delight
We discovered hope, courage and faith
Could still exist in it’s space
That instead of a world that melted away
A new one had been reborn that very day.

Navigating the Labyrinth of Life
In twisted tangles of an imbroglio,
A web of woes that doth entwine,
With knots of confusion, heart and soul do go,
And reason flies, like wind in leaves divine.
In this labyrinth of thoughts so intricate,
Where truth is lost, as in a maze profound,
The mind doth struggle to find its state,
As passions rage, like waves around.
But hope doth shine, like stars above,
A guiding light, to those who love,
For in the midst of all this strife,
Lies peace, if one but chooses life.
So let us not be daunted by the fight,
Nor lose our way in darkest night,
For in the end, we shall emerge from sight,
To see the beauty of the light.

Jasmine Whispers
In the moonlit night, beneath the stars,
Jasmine whispers, soft and sweet,
A fragrance that enchants and soothes,
A balm for weary, troubled hearts.
Jasmine whispers, tales of love,
Of passion and of longing deep,
Of secrets whispered in the breeze,
As lovers dance and hearts take flight.
Jasmine whispers, songs of hope,
Of dreams that soar on wings of light,
Of beauty found in every bloom,
Of joy that fills the darkest night.
Jasmine whispers, words of peace,
A gentle lullaby for the soul,
A reminder that we’re all connected,
That love and kindness make us whole.
So listen close, my dear friend,
To the jasmine whispers, soft and clear,
Let their magic fill your heart with love,
And guide you on a path of light.

This is nice
This is nice, a gentle stroll,
A promise of joy,
The sun on my face,
And a breeze on my skin
A chance to feel free and fly,
The world so alive,
The sound of nature in my ear,
A melody thats divine
The beauty of life so grand,
Eyes opened wide,
A heart full of warmth,
And hope inside
This is nice, our journey here,
A lifetime of bliss,
The journey of joy,
And memories to reminisce.

Doubt of Recollection
You counselled me, when the days are strenuous and grim, to reminisce when the days luminous and gentle.
But, how do you expect me to be appeased,
When these dismal and rigorous days make me doubt the authenticity of those guileless, euphoric days?

Good morning
Rays of golden light filter through,
Giving me hope anew.
Each day is like a fresh start,
A chance to envision a wise acquisition of my heart.
Birds twitter their sweet song,
Pollinating the air with music so strong.
The birds welcome nature’s beauty and grace,
A morning of hope for a brand new day.
Wind caresses through,
Bringing life a gentle hue.
The horizon bathes in a soft pink hue
A reminder of a fresh new dew.
Good morning sunshine,
Scintillating and divine.
Your rays bring such a calming woe,
It’s time to start anew, good morning.

Everlasting Night
In my mind’s abyss, where darkness reigns,
I sink slowly, like quicksand’s chains.
Uncertain of what lies below,
I pray to a foreign God, my savior to know.I regret not taking the guided path,
Instead embracing this perilous wrath.
Familiar yet strange, this darkness surrounds,
As I yearn to break free, with hope unbound.Tears cascade, like raindrops in pain,
As I brace myself for the final campaign.
Darkness, I defy, with all my might,
To reclaim my light, and emerge from the night.

Nocturnal Strife
In the dead of night, a young boy takes flight, A vampiric visage, a sinister sight. When the world’s asleep, and darkness reigns, He haunts the streets, igniting his pains.
His parents’ slumber, a veil to his crime, Their child transformed, a creature of time. A thirst for chaos, a hunger profound, In the cover of night, his victims are found.
At clubs and parties, where merriment chimes, He slashes and carves, in the name of his crimes. A twisted desire, a heart turned to coal, Leaving behind a trail of horror untold.
But within his soul, a conflict doth brew, Between light and darkness, the false and the true. A vampire slasher, a creature of strife, Trapped in the chaos of his double-edged life.
And like Peter Tosh, the rebel of old, A story untold, a truth to be bold. A struggle within, a fight to be free, From the darkness that binds, and the path he can’t see.
For the vampire slasher, in shadows he roams, A young boy lost in his twisted psychone. But redemption’s embrace, a glimmer of hope, May guide him back to the light on his scope.

Love’s Disaster
When all the world was bright with spring,
And love’s young dream was mine,
I thought no ill could ever bring
A cloud across the shine.
But, lo! the storm came sudden o’er,
The sky grew dark and drear;
And love, that seemed so bright before,
Was changed to bitter fear.
And now I know that love is blind,
And hope is all a lie;
And he who trusts in womankind
Must surely rue the day.
For love is like a summer dream,
That fades away too soon;
And he who hopes to win the gleam
Must pay the bitter boon.
So let me learn from bitterest woe
The lesson love has taught,
And never trust to woman’s vow,
Or hope to win her heart.

A Letter to the Forgotten
To those who have been forgotten,
To those who have been cast aside,
To those who have been left behind,
This letter is for you.I know that you feel alone,
I know that you feel lost,
I know that you feel forgotten,
But I want you to know that you are not.You are loved,
You are important,
You are worthy,
And you are not alone.I know that it is hard to believe,
When the world seems to have forgotten you,
But I want you to know that I see you.I see your pain,
I see your hurt,
I see your loneliness,
And I want you to know that I care.I am here for you,
I will not forget you,
And I will never leave you.So please, do not give up hope,
Do not give in to the darkness,
Do not let the world forget you.I am here for you,
And I will never forget you.

Israel-Hamas war
Close the door, my dear,
and keep it shut, I fear,
for the winds of war are blowing,
and the world is not yet knowing.The bombs are falling fast,
and the skies are overcast,
with smoke and dust and debris,
and the cries of those who flee.The children are afraid,
and the parents are dismayed,
as they huddle in their homes,
and pray they’re not alone.But hope is not yet lost,
for there are those who count the cost,
and fight for peace and freedom,
in a world that’s lost its reason.So close the door, my dear,
and keep it shut, I fear,
for the winds of war are blowing,
but we’ll keep the light still glowing.

Dry Ink
The pen lies still on the dusty desk
Its ink has dried up long ago
No words flow from its silent tip
No stories fill the empty pageThe writer’s mind is blank as well
His thoughts have faded with the ink
He stares at the paper with no inspiration
He wonders if he’ll ever write againBut then he sees a ray of light
A spark of hope in his dark night
He remembers why he started writing
He remembers the joy of creatingHe picks up the pen and shakes it hard
He dips it in a fresh new jar
He feels the ink run through his veins
He feels the words come alive againHe writes with passion and with grace
He writes with courage and with faith
He writes with love and with gratitude
He writes with everything he hasThe pen is alive on the vibrant desk
Its ink is flowing like a river
The words dance on the colorful page
The stories fill the world with wonder

The last drop
The last drops of rain fell from the sky
As I watched you walk away, without a goodbye
You took everything from me, my heart, my soul, my pride
And left me with nothing, but tears in my eyesthe last drops of hope dried in my chest
As I realized you were gone, and I had failed the test
You were the reason for my smile, my joy, my life
And now I have nothing, but pain and strifethe last drops of love faded in my mind
As I tried to forget you, and leave you behind
You were the one for me, my dream, my fate
And now I have nothing, but anger and hatethe last drops of me crumbled in your hands
As you broke me into pieces, and scattered me in the sands
You were my everything, my all, my whole
And now I have nothing, but a broken soul

Life is life
Life is life, and what is more
Than life? A little song
Of joy or sorrow, more
Or less, a little day
Of sun or shade, of play
Or work, of love or hate,
Of laughter or of tears,
A little space between
The cradle and the grave.
Life is life, and what is less
Than life? A little dream
Of beauty, or of bliss,
A little hope, a gleam
Of sunshine on a cloud,
A little starlight thrown
Across the shadows deep,
A little joy unknown,
A little grief unwept.
Life is life, and what is best
Than life? A little love
That fills the heart above
With joy, and makes it move
With strength and purity,
And makes it live and be
A little light of God
In the great darkness here.

Love is a temporary thing
Love is a temporary thing,
A fleeting moment in time,
A spark that ignites and then burns,
But soon is turned to embers and ash.It’s a feeling that comes and goes,
A wave that washes over you,
Bringing joy and happiness,
But also pain and sorrow too.It’s a risk that we all take,
To give our hearts to another,
In the hope that it will last,
But knowing that it may not.So if you find yourself in love,
Enjoy it while it lasts,
And don’t be afraid to let go,
When the time comes for it to end.For love is a temporary thing,
But the memories will last a lifetime.

Let’s not regret
Let’s not regret the things that were
Or things that might have been,
But take the present hour and share
Its joy and hope and win.Let’s not regret the things that died,
Or tears that we have shed,
But let us smile and banish pride,
And live the best we can.Let’s not regret the things that seem
To have gone out of reach,
But let us hope and trust and dream
Of better things to come.Let’s not regret the past, but take
The present as it is,
And make the best of all our days
And live them to the brim.Let’s not regret the things we’ve done
That we might have left undone,
But let us try to make amends
And live more nobly still.Let’s not regret the things we’ve said
That we might have left unsaid,
But let us speak the truth instead
And make our words our friends.Let’s not regret the things we’ve lost
That we might have held so dear,
But let us find new joys and zest
And make our lives more sweet.Let’s not regret the things we are
That we might have been,
But let us strive to be the best
That we can be today.

Feelings and Emotions are Like Flowers
Love is like a rose,
With its sweet and delicate petals.
It can be fragile and easily bruised,
But it can also be strong and resilient.
Joy is like a sunflower,
Always turning towards the sun.
It is a positive and uplifting emotion,
That can brighten even the darkest day.
Sadness is like a violet,
Hidden in the shadows.
It is a quiet and gentle emotion,
That can be difficult to express.
Anger is like a dandelion,
With its sharp and prickly seeds.
It can be a destructive emotion,
If it is not controlled.
Fear is like a daisy,
With its white petals and yellow center.
It is a natural emotion,
That can help us to stay safe.
Hope is like a lotus flower,
Growing in the mud.
It is a powerful emotion,
That can help us to overcome adversity.
Peace is like a garden,
Full of different flowers.
It is a state of harmony,
Where all emotions are welcome.
Feelings and emotions are like flowers.
They are all beautiful and unique,
And they all have their own special meaning.
So let’s celebrate our feelings and emotions,
And let them bloom in all their beauty.

Vacant Land
The land lies empty, waiting
For what it will become,
A home, a business, a park,
Or perhaps just nothing at all.
The grass grows wild and free,
Untamed by human hands,
The trees stand tall and proud,
Untouched by progress.
The wind blows through the leaves,
Singing a song of hope,
The sun shines down on the earth,
Blessing it with its warmth.
The vacant land waits patiently,
Knowing that its time will come,
When it will be filled with life,
And make a difference in the world.business, change, development, Difference, empty land, future, growth, home, hope, impact, life, nature, park, poem, poems, Poetry, Potential, transformation, vacant land, waiting

On this journey
On this journey through the vast unknown,
With words as our compass and our guide,
We shall explore the depths of the unknown,
And discover all that we can abide.
We shall travel through the realms of the mind,
And explore the depths of our souls,
We shall learn the secrets of the universe,
And discover our true selves along the way.
We shall not be afraid to venture forth,
Into the unknown and the untamed,
For we know that we are not alone,
And that we are always guided by the muse.
So let us set sail on this journey of discovery,
With our minds open and our hearts full of hope,
And let us see what wonders await us,
On this journey through the vast unknown.

Today is broken, so I will cry
Today is broken, so I will cry,
A solitary tear, a river wide,
A sorrow’s depth, a sky’s height,
A fragile soul, a world’s weight.
The morning dawned, a false promise made,
A lie that mocked, a truth betrayed,
The sun rose high, a fiery blade,
That cut through dreams, a night’s disguise.
Yesterday’s memories, a faded hue,
A past that taunts, a present Blue,
Regrets and what-ifs, they crowd the mind,
A chorus chanting, a melody unkind.
Tomorrow looms, an uncertain guest,
A shadow dancing, a future unblessed,
The wind howls warnings, a storm’s portent,
A darkness gathering, a tempest’s consent.
Today is broken, so I will cry,
A lonely figure, against the sky,
A single drop, a deluge vast,
A sorrow’s ocean, forever fast.
The stars above, a distant throng,
A celestial choir, a heavenly song,
They sing of hope, a gentle breeze,
That whispers secrets, a symphony of ease.
But here on earth, a different tune,
A discordant beat, a funeral march boon,
The trees stand still, their leaves rustle sighs,
As nature mourns, a requiem replies.
Today is broken, so I will cry,
A fragile vessel, a sea of sighs,
A shattered dream, a world awry,
A solo voice, a universe denied.
Yet in the midst, a glimmer shines,
A ray of light, a beacon divine,
A chance to mend, a second chance,
A new beginning, a life to enhance.
Today is broken, but tomorrow waits,
A clean slate, a canvas unfurls,
A brush of hope, a palette bright,
A masterpiece, a new day’s delight.
So let the tears fall, let the heart weep,
For in the sorrow, a lesson keep,
That life’s a journey, twists and turns,
But strength and courage, our spirits learn.
Today is broken, so I will cry,
But with each tear, a wisdom nigh,
That though the world may shatter and fade,
Our inner strength, a rainbow’s shade.

The Fire That Blazes Within
They don’t see the light in me,
A hidden star that glows.
They scorn and hate, but they can,t dim
The beauty in my soul. A star of hope sleeps in my heart,
It grows with every sneer.
It beams within, a radiant force,
That chases away my fear. It waits to shine,
to show the world Its joy and grace and might. And when it does, they’ll see the truth,
The star and the light.

The Poetry of Emotional Connections
Climbing emotions reach their zenith,
A delicate pleading rises within,
Melancholic longings entwine with you,
Embracing your spirit true.
Veiled messenger of hope adorns me,
Inscribing secrets deep inside my core,
Warmth from your embrace lifts my mood,
Steadfast courage empowering more.
False charms do not ensnare my heart,
Intimate moments bind us strong,
Innocent glances see our bond,
Artistic beauty in every song.

Pilgrimage of Love
Every man takes a pilgrimage in life
And finding your heart has been my own strife
Not perfect, too holy for my presence
Nor of clay, to be fashioned by my whims with no essenceBut life has scarred you, sometimes broken
Whose pieces, my pieces might fit within
I see you with all your faults and failings
Simply praying you’ll look past all my own yearningsLet us practice Kintsugi together, mend broken vessels
Learn to fly with broken wings, and mingle broken poetry and laughter
Share tears of sorrow and of joy, and dance with me who is no dancer
Sing with me who has no voice, and I’ll fight for you who needs stronger armorWhere we came from doesn’t matter, who we are is a fading dream
Help me lose a heart too long jaded, let us live for simple grace, it seems
I am a pilgrim worn and tired, you the dream my vision showed
Together we’ll find the love we deserve, and never let it corrode.

Nothing Left to Cost
I’ve spent my life in search of gold,
But now I find I’ve nothing left to hold.
My heart is empty, my soul is dry,
I’ve nothing left to buy or why.I’ve traveled far and wide,
But all I’ve found is greed and pride.
I’ve seen the world, but all I’ve seen
Is people who are just as mean.I’ve given all I had,
But now I find I’ve nothing left to glad.
I’ve lost my faith, I’ve lost my hope,
I’ve nothing left to give or cope.I’m just an empty shell,
A broken man with nothing left to sell.
I’m just a man with nothing left to cost,
A man with nothing left to boast.

My Life Isn’t Hell
I wake up each day with a smile,
I know that my life isn’t a trial.
I have friends and family who care,
And I’m grateful for what I share.I may not have everything I want,
But I have enough to make me content.
I’m healthy and strong, and I’m alive,
And that’s all that matters to me, alive.So if you’re feeling down today,
Just remember that your life isn’t hell.
There’s always hope for a better tomorrow,
So keep your head up and keep on going.

The Power of Words
Eloquence is a powerful thing,
It can move mountains and change minds.
It can inspire hope and courage,
And it can bring people together.When used for good, eloquence can make the world a better place.
It can bring about change and justice,
And it can help us to understand each other better.So let us all use our eloquence for good,
Let us use our words to build up, not tear down.

A Light in the Darkness
A filament glows,
A spark of life,
A beacon of hope,
In the darkness of night.The light shines bright,
A warm and inviting glow,
A welcome respite,
From the cold and the snow.The light dispels the gloom,
And chases away the fear,
A reminder that even in the darkest of times,
There is always hope.

Today You, Tomorrow Me
Version 1 (Free Verse)
In this world of uncertainty,
We face challenges, you and me.
But with hearts touching, bold and true,
Together, there’s nothing we can’t undo.
Today you may stumble, feeling weak,
But I’ll be there, your strength to seek.
And when tomorrow comes, and I’m in need,
You’ll be the one to help me succeed.
For we are bound by a common thread,
A tapestry of love and hope we’ve spread.
In unity, we find our might,
Resilient, we’ll face each fight.
So let us cherish this bond we share,
A testament to the love and care.
Today you, tomorrow me,
Together, we’ll set our spirits free.Version 2 (Rhyme)
Heart-touching and bold,
A story to be told.
Life is unpredictable, we never know,
When it’ll turn around and the tides will flow.One day you’re on top of the world,
The next day, your life is swirled.
In moments like these, we realize,
The true meaning of life and its surprise.Today it may be you who can lend a hand,
And tomorrow me who’d need the stand.
The world runs on kindness and empathy,
It’s what we all need to feel true synergy.So, let’s spread love and care,
In a world where it’s often rare.
For today you, tomorrow me,
Together we can make this world a better place to be.Version 3 (Alliteration)
Boldly beating hearts bond,
Building benevolent bonds beyond,
Brightened by being beautiful and bold,
Battling barriers, breaking the mold.Camaraderie crowned by care,
Compassion conquers all despair,
Creating connections, cultivating kindness,
Carrying courage, crushing blindness.Days dedicated to do deeds,
Divine destiny devoutly leads,
Dignity displayed in devoted ways,
Dreams delivered, delaying no delays.Version 4 (Sarcastic)
I’m feeling grateful, can you believe?
Today you did something, yes indeed
You took a moment, you took your time
You helped a stranger and made a climbWe don’t often stop, we don’t often see
How much a small gesture could mean to me
But you did it, you took the call
Today you stood tallAnd tomorrow? Who knows what will be
Maybe it’ll be you, maybe it’ll be me
But one thing I know, without a doubt
That kindness spreads and will never run outSo let’s keep going, let’s keep the trend
Of helping others, being a friend
For today it was you, but tomorrow it may be me
And that’s the way it should be.

Longing for Your Embrace
Softly sighing, I seek your sweet solace,
Savoring the sensation of your strong arms;
Secure and sheltered, my soul sings in silence,
Seeking nothing more than your soothing charms.
Heartbeats hasten as I hold onto hope,
Hoping to be held by you tonight;
Healing happens when we hold each other,
Hence, I want you to be able to hold me tight.
-
Save Me from Me
Save me from me,
From the doubts that I see,
From the fears that I feel,
From the wounds that won’t heal.
Save me from me,
From the thoughts that deceive,
From the pain that’s inside,
From the tears that I hide.
Save me from me,
From the darkness that be,
From the demons I fight,
From the sleepless nights.
Save me from me,
And set my troubled mind free,
Let hope be my guide,
And love be my pride.

Fragments of Memories
I see your face, I hear your voice, But you are not here, not in this place. A shadow of your former self, A ghost of what once was, a lost love.
I try to reach out, to touch your hand, But my fingers pass right through your skin. I try to speak, to call your name, But my voice is lost in the wind.
I am left with only fragments, Of memories that are now all but gone. A smile, a laugh, a touch, a kiss, All that remains of what once was.
-
The Darkest Void
I stand in the center of the darkest void,
Where light and hope are quickly destroyed,
The silence here is deafeningly loud,
And darkness wraps around like a shroud.
No stars above to guide my way,
No path ahead, no night or day,
I’m lost within this endless space,
A lonely figure with no trace.
But still I stand, I will not fall,
For deep within my soul, a light does call,
A flicker of hope that burns so bright,
Guiding me through the darkest night.
-
Lips gently pressed
Lips gently pressed upon a cold forehead,
A final kiss, a farewell to the dead,
Tears fall like rain, a heart full of sorrow,
As the world becomes a darker shade of tomorrow.
Memories flood, a life once lived,
A love once shared, a heart once grieved,
But through the pain, a glimmer of hope,
For a soul has ascended to a higher scope.
The warmth of a touch, a love still felt,
Though the body has left, the soul has not melt,
For in our hearts, their flame still burns,
A love eternal, forever yearns.
-
Sparkling Hope in Sad Eyes
Sparkling hope in sad eyes,
Shimmering shards of light surprise,
Sorrowful souls slowly rise,
Seeking solace, shedding lies.Glimmering glances, gentle gaze,
Glistening tears, golden blaze,
Grasping for grace, glorious days,
Gradually growing in myriad ways.Radiant resilience, resplendent resolve,
Rising above ruins, rekindling resolve,
Rejoicing in renewal, refusing to revolve,
Round the same regrets, ready to evolve.

Between Sunrise and Sunset
I am a tunnel between sunrise and sunset, a journey through time,
A place where hope meets reflection, and new beginnings can climb.
The light at the end, is always within reach,
A reminder that life is a journey, and we all have a path to teach.
The shadows may be daunting, but they’re just a part of the way,
They remind us of our strength, and the light of a new day.
The journey may be long, but the destination is worth the wait,
And every step we take, is a chance to change our fate.
I am a tunnel between sunrise and sunset, a place of endless possibility,
A reminder that life is a gift, and every moment is filled with opportunity.

Rainbow
I looked up and saw a rainbow, a symbol of hope and light,
A beauty that filled my heart, and inspired me to take flight.
The colors stretched across the sky, a wonder to behold,
A joy that filled my soul, and a story that was told.
I felt the light pass into my heart, and I knew I could go on,
A source of inspiration, that I could always draw upon.
The rainbow reminded me, that beauty can come after the storm,
And that hope is always there, even when things aren’t warm.
I looked up and saw a rainbow, and it filled me with delight,
A symbol of all that’s good, and all that’s worth the fight.

Let’s Start Over
We can start over, as many times as we need,
Our love can be reborn, we can plant a new seed.
Let’s forget the past, and all the hurt and pain,
We can give it another try, and love once again.
A second chance is all we need, to make things right,
A new beginning, a fresh start, under the moonlight.
Forgiveness is the key, to unlock the door,
Hope is what we have, to love each other more.
We can start over, as many times as we need,
Our love can be reborn, we can plant a new seed.
-
Light at the End of the Tunnel
My heart is heavy, burdened by my past,
But I won’t let it weigh me down and last.
I choose to focus on the good and the light,
And move forward with all of my might.
I have hope for a brighter tomorrow,
And a heart that’s no longer filled with sorrow.
I’m learning and growing, seeking redemption,
And forgiving myself with open reception.
Though my past may have been a struggle,
I’m choosing a positive outlook with a smile and a snuggle.

Starry Skies
Faith resides in the eyes of starry skies,
Where stars twinkle and the moonlight flies.
The universe vast, yet full of surprise,
A wonderland that opens up our eyes.The constellations tell a story,
Of love, of hope, of God’s glory.
A canvas painted with celestial artistry,
A sight that fills our hearts with unity.Inspired by: altpoetryprompts
