Below the mountains high,
A river meanders by,
Through the rocks and trees,
The water flows and seeps.
It shimmers in the sun,
Winding, passing one,
Bringing life and joy,
To the birds and the boy.
It carries a song,
Melodious and long,
Through the valleys and hills,
Its secrets it spills.
The river so peaceful,
Coursing through the west,
Providing a haven,
For life to rest.

Curtains of my guilt
As I sit in a room of many faces
Thoughts run through my mind
As they stare at me in judgement
The curtains of my guilt wrap around me in disgrace
Lies I have told, truths I have hid
The walls are crumbling, my secrets revealed
The accusations fly, as I seem to have no defense
The curtains of my guilt, tangle me in its grasp
Can I ever be forgiven, for the many deeds I have done?
Or be doomed to eternal damnation for my many sins?
Is there a way to turn back time, and away run
From these painful curtains of my guilt, weighing me down
As I try to face my inner demons, and look to the skies
The curtains of my guilt bind me, like a prisoner on trial
They show me no mercy, and refuse to let me go
Curses hang in the air, as I cry foul and woe
Maybe one day I will find my way to redemption
And throw the curtains of my guilt to the ground
My heart free of fear, and restored from the fires of hell
On that day my peace shall be found.accusations, defense, fear, Forgiveness, freedom, guilt, hell, Inner Demons, judgment, mercy, peace, poem, poems, Poetry, redemption, restoration, secrets

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.

Of passion and of longing deep,
Of secrets whispered in the breeze,
As lovers dance and hearts take flight.

Of dreams that soar on wings of light,
Of beauty found in every bloom,
Of joy that fills the darkest night.

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.

Behind the Closed Door
There was a brighter glow in the sky,
But behind the closed door, tears did lie.Looking in the mirror, the truth was bare,
A soul departed, leaving nothing to share.The blue rays turned, casting a somber hue,
As the gossip mill spun, tales untold anew.The sad news reached, a bitter blow,
The soul was missing, nowhere to go.But now it’s free, from shackles unbound,
The body burned, its ashes on the ground.Slowly blending into the earth’s embrace,
To become part of the dust, in time and space.Yet, my love for you will forever shine,
An eternal flame, a love divine.For we are all stardust, you and I,
Connected to the universe, beneath the sky.Behind the closed door, where secrets reside,
A love transcends, a bond untied.ashes, blending with the earth, blue rays turned, burned body, connection, cosmic connection, departed soul, dust, eternal bond, Eternal love, gossip mill, grief behind closed doors, hidden bond, hidden grief, hidden love, mirror of truth, missing soul, poem, poems, Poetry, sad news, secret mourning, secret tears, secrets, shackles unbound, somber hue, stardust, universe

Whispers Among Trees
Through the wide expanse of trees,
The winds whisper secrets, soft and free.
Caressed by gentle zephyrs, whispered with grace,
A melody of secrets, adrift in this sacred space.
Whispers carried by the breeze’s gentle sway,
Tales of love and longing, in a mysterious way.
The trees sway in rhythm, as if in harmony,
Singing the ballad of you and me.
In the language of leaves, the secrets unfurl,
The winds, faithful messengers, in a beautiful swirl.
They tell of stolen glances and hearts filled with fire,
Of whispered promises, igniting desire.
In the dance of the branches, a symphony of desire,
The breeze weaves a tapestry, setting souls afire.
Oh, how the winds sing, in a language so rare,
The story of us, woven through the autumn air.
So listen, dear lover, to the whispers in the trees,
Their ethereal chorus, carried on gentle breeze.
For in their subtle rustle, the secrets will be found,
The love that blooms in silence, with a tender sound.

Unveiled Mysteries
Questions abound, life undisclosed

Shedding deep dread, seeking to outrun
Tracing scars, seeking closure insteadLife still mars, seeking exposure to shed

Seeking wisdoms, from the scars that bled

Way Past the Point of Fearing the Darkness
Way past the point of fearing the darkness,
I embrace it with open arms, no less.

The Unveiling
Thinking outside of Pandora’s box,
I found myself in a paradox.

But I knew I had to give my all.I took a step, then two and three,
And soon I found what I wanted to see.
The truth unveiled before my eyes,
As I reached for the infinite skies.The secrets hidden deep inside,
Were now in plain sight, nothing to hide.
Thinking outside of Pandora’s box,
I found the key to unlock life’s locks.

Secrets of a Secluded Sunflower
In a field of green, stands a sunflower tall,
Its secrets hidden, behind a yellow wall,
A solitary figure, standing all alone,
Its mysteries kept, until they are known.The bees buzz by, but the flower stays still,
Its secrets guarded, with an iron will,
What lies beneath, the surface so bright,
Is it darkness or light?The sunflower sways, in the gentle breeze,
Its secrets safe, from prying eyes and bees,
But if you listen close, you might just hear,
The whispers of secrets, that it holds dear.Inspired by: altpoetryprompts

River, lakes, oceans, all connected by fate,
A never-ending journey, they endlessly create,
From the smallest stream to the vastest sea,
Their beauty and power are plain to see.

Secrets of the Pillow
If the pillow could talk, oh what tales it would tell,
Of secrets whispered and dreams that befell,
Of comfort sought in the still of the night,
And worries eased till the morning light.
It’s been a confidant to many a soul,
Heard whispered fears and stories untold,
A silent witness to moments of bliss,
And tears shed in moments of miss.
Oh, the secrets that the pillow keeps,
As we lay down to rest and into slumber we seep,
Tales that are hidden from the light of day,
In the soft embrace of the pillow, they stay.

Beyond the galaxy beyond humanity’s reach
Beyond the galaxy beyond humanity’s reach,
A thousand stars twinkle and each,
In awe, we stare at the vastness of space,
Wondering what secrets it holds in its embrace,

But we’re stuck on Earth, forever forlorn,
Our imaginations take flight, but reality keeps us in check,
Such is the plight of our existence, oh what a wreck!

Hong Kong Red Light Streets
Hong Kong Red Light Streets
In Hong Kong’s red light streets, the night comes alive,
A world of temptation, that’s hard to survive,
The neon lights, they flicker, with a seductive glow,
A place of pleasure, that’s hard to let go.The women, they stand, in their sultry attire,
A vision of beauty, that’s hard to acquire,
Their eyes, they sparkle, with a dangerous flame,
A world of secrets, that’s hard to tame.The men, they come, with a hunger so deep,
A desire for pleasure, that’s hard to keep,
Their hearts, they race, with a primal need,
A world of pleasure, that’s hard to concede.But behind the glamour, lies a story so sad,
A world of exploitation, that’s hard to fathom,
The women, they’re trapped, in a cycle so cruel,
A world of pain, that’s hard to overrule.In Hong Kong’s red light streets, the night comes alive,
A world of temptation, that’s hard to survive,
But behind the facade, lies a story so dark,
A world of sorrow, that’s hard to embark.

Waves Rise and Fall Again #Poetry
Waves Rise and Fall Again #Poetry
The waves rise and fall again,
A never-ending dance that has no end,
In the ebb and flow of the tides,
The ocean’s secrets it confides.With every rise, the waves gain might,
With every fall, they return to the night,
A rhythm that echoes throughout,
A symphony of nature’s devout.The waves rise and fall again,
A force that we can never comprehend,
In their power, we find our peace,
A reminder that our worries will cease.

A natural beauty, seldom seen,
Its powers are hidden and vast,
A precious gift that we must last.

A dance of nature, a love at first sight,
The waves bring along, shells and pearls,
A treasure trove for boys and girls.

Protect it well, for it’s always ours,
A gift to great, for it knows no bounds.

Beware of the Dark
Beware of the Dark
Beware of the dark, my dear,
For it holds secrets and fear.
It’s where the shadows come to play,
And the monsters come out to prey.In the dark, there’s no light to see,
Only the sounds of your own heartbeat.
It’s where the imagination runs wild,
And the mind plays tricks on a child.But sometimes, the dark is not so bad,
It’s a place where dreams are had.
Where stars twinkle in the sky,
And the moonlight shines so high.So, beware of the dark, my friend,
But don’t let it be your end.
For in the darkness, there’s also light,
And it can guide you through the night.

The sands of time doth hide
Secrets ancient, secrets old

And secrets lost, yet found again
So come, my friend, and take the leap
Into this world of secrets deep
Let the sands of time reveal
The stories that they’ve yet to seal.

The Sweetness of Delay
The Sweetness of Delay
Though we may wish for things to come our way,
Sometimes the delay can be sweet,
For it can give us time to reflect and pray,
And see the things that we can meet.It can be hard to wait for something long,
But it can also be a blessing,
For it can give us time to hear a song,
And find out what we are missing.The delay can give us time to be still,
And to appreciate the things we have,
It can show us secrets that we can’t see until,
The moment that we are glad.The sweetness of delay can be found,
In the moments that we take,
For it can give us joy that abounds,
And a life that we can make.Abounds, acceptance, adventure, appreciate, blessing, change, compassion, connection, Contentment, Delay, discover, empathy, explore, faith, Find, Forgiveness, found, Glad, gratitude, growth, happiness, hard, hear, hope, joy, kindness, Learn, life, love, make, mind, moment, new, open, opportunity, patience, peace, perspective, Poetry, Possibilities, pray, reflect, Renew, renewal, secrets, song, still, strength, support, Sweetness, take, things, Time, Understanding, wait, Wish

The Sorrowful Walls
The Sorrowful Walls
The walls stand tall, but oh so weak
In silence, they listen to the hearts that speak
Whispers of pain and sorrow they hear
As they hold their secrets, year after year
The cracks in the walls tell a story
Of a life that’s been broken and full of worry
The sorrowful walls, they bear the weight
Of a past that’s haunting, and a future that’s late.

And fills them with its splendorThe moon is a part of me
And I am a part of it
It reflects my moods and feelings
And mirrors my spirit

It Was So Painful to Tell
It Was So Painful to Tell
It was so painful to tell,
The words that shook me, and made me swell.
With every breath, a new fear,
And every word, a new tear.It was so painful to tell,
The secrets hidden, in my shell.
With every look, a new scar,
And every thought, a new bar.It was so painful to tell,
The truth that haunted, and made me yell.
With every memory, a new pain,
And every moment, a new strain.But in the end, I found the strength,
To face the world, and go the length.
I found the courage, to speak my mind,
And leave the pain, and the fear behind.For it’s the truth that sets us free,
And the pain that fades, with each new plea.
It’s the courage we find, to speak our heart,
That sets us free, and makes us restart.So let us speak up, and break the chain,
And find the strength, to speak our pain.
For in the end, it’s the love we share,
That heals the wounds, and makes us repair.

I’d Hide My Words Away
I’d Hide My Words Away
I’d hide my words away, if I could
And keep them safe, in a quiet wood
For they are the thoughts, that fill my head
And the secrets, that I’ve left unsaidSometimes, I long to keep them in
And let them simmer, under my skin
For fear of what the world might say
And the judgement, that might come my wayBut then I think, of all the times
That my words have helped, to ease the minds
Of those who struggled, with the same
And how my words, could help ease the painSo I’ll take my words, and set them free
And let them be, what they are meant to be
For they are a part of me, you see
And I’d never want, to hide that from thee.authenticity, away, expression, fear, freedom, hide, i’d, Judgement, poem, poems, Poetry, secrets, self-acceptance, Thoughts, vulnerability, words

A Drunken Mouth
A drunken mouth speaks words untold
With reckless abandon, so bold
It spills out secrets, and stories too
And reveals the soul, that’s hidden from viewA drunken mouth, with slurred speech
Is a window to the heart, that’s hard to breach
It says what’s on the mind, without a filter
And leaves the speaker, feeling like a winnerBut a drunken mouth can also bring strife
And cause pain to loved ones, in its rife
It can lead to regret, and sorrow too
And leave the speaker, feeling so blueSo let us learn, to hold our tongue
And not let liquor, be our song
For a drunken mouth, can lead us astray
And cause us to regret, what we sayInstead, let us speak with grace
And choose our words, with care and pace
For a sober mouth, is a sign of strength
And leads us to a life, of true content.

To be one with the universe, and feel its might,
As the veil of night, fades into the light.For in this world, beyond the veil of night,

And that every end, is but a new beginning, so bright.So let us journey beyond the veil of night,
To a world of wonder, and endless delight,
For in its embrace, we’ll find our way,
And live to see, another wondrous day.

Whispers and Thunderclaps

But both will leave a lasting mark, a lasting battle
For whispers can linger in the mind
And thunder can shake the earth, one of a kind
