I retreat.
Back into my shell.
Like a snail,
whose feelers have been tapped
by a passing leaf.
But I don’t dwell.
That’s the purview of slugs.
Those
lazy
passive things.... – by H. Lock | added by Sleekwood

*To Love Destructively*
"You're too much."
Too much?...
Too much attention
Too much clingyness
Desperation oozes off my flesh
Like rotting scabs of "love me!"
"Love me!"
Between the lines "Run from me."

We may not always see eye to eye!
We may not agree about the same things!
You may not like what I like!
Yet, diffrences, are what make us both human!
You may eat what I do not!
We may not even believe in the same God!
What makes either one... – by Devon Bates | added by devonb.14033

I love you.
That’s a start.
I love you,
and I miss you.
I miss your art.
I miss your face.
I smell your scent when I can’t
sleep.
A stuffed toy,
held in a tight embrace.
It broke my heart
when I said goodbye,
so I... – by Hemlock. | added by Sleekwood

~Tattered Book~
Written: 10/12/2020
What am I
But a storybook
With ripped pages
Scribbled upon by careless hands.
They wrote chapters
In my honor
Only to bleed ink
And dog ear corners
My tale was to be marvelous
Filled with... – by The Drama Queen Poet | added by Loner_Lulu

Listen to the whispers on my lips
I do not stutter and I do not lisp.
How dare you act as if your deaf
As if you're righteous and that's all that's left
There are cities of men and beasts
Lit in the sin on which their bellies fully feast.

Prove yourself.
Your worth.
Your value.
Take on this task.

I've never been one to curse names
In the will of holy retribution
But I can't help the rage seething
To his cursed names contribution
Pick yourself up off the weeping floor

I lost my passion.
I had passion to take snaps.
Went to forest for taking
photos of ferocious wilds.
I went to deserts,mountains
and also eyes soothing seas.
Took number of photos.
I sent few of them in exibition.
Few were set in... – by Swarup Bhattacharya | added by swarupbhattacharya263
