AFFAIR WITH A LUNATIC

So I found a blog the other day that caught my eye for its beautiful layout.  And then I noticed the poetry and fell in love.  I hope every blogger goes to pay her a visit! She started this poem off and after another blog I read yesterday it seems to be a common theme…

THE COST

Written by Jonathan Ojanpera and Hastywords his eyes spoke in verse telling me stories of love of another time   she listened in rhyme heard all the stories he wrote in case they were true   love makes it all fine until there is nothing left between black and white   his promises fly slumbering…

JUST ONE SOFT KISS

Written by HastyHusband and HastyWords Ο I’m gently floating Wings spread in the sky Colored beams of light Sparkling from the sun Beauty catching my eye   Pensively hovering Gravity draws low Performing my duty Perspective changes Tunnel vision grows    Wistfully settling Feet on the ground I’m being transformed Life destined, no control Landing…

FALLING DIAMONDS

MY PLEASURE by Anonymous

She has her reasons for having me post this as anonymous but I think this is an amazing poem.  I am hoping she changes her mind and lets me sign her name eventually.  What do you think? I wear the bruises on my skin With a secret smile on my face I know how I…

DEPRESSION’S DANCE by HASTYWORDS
