A Little Poetry :o)

Here are a few poems I wrote not too long ago. I wanted to play around with words and see what I can come up with. The last two pieces are a little deeper as far as emotion goes. I don't normally write peoms like this but just wanted to give it a try. And the peom titled "Yearn" is actually a sonnet that took me a week and a half to complete. It's written in Shakespear form with a little modern twist. It is my favorite thus far!! And I hope I get to write many more like these!! Enjoy!!

"Yearn"

Thou’s yearning heart beats for thee
While misty eyes collect in me
Thy one true love from afar
Come to me from where you are
Thou dreams of thee in solitude
I hand you all my gratitude
Thy weeping soul cannot bear
So I sing my words into the air
As night skies collect my prayers
I hold thee’s love with all thy cares
Til dawn I weep for thy true love
Let Gods hear thy yearn above
Render all thy soul and being
Your love will be thy cursed life freeing

"Sweet Divine"

Such sweet divine
Beautiful eyes
I seek the truth
Behind your lies
Deceit and sorrow
Begin to follow
My wondering thoughts
So deep and hollow
I praise the Gods
Heal my pain
But with these odds
I fear the rain
Tears fall down
I may just drown
Take my heart
This vicious hound
Do I just fight?
Do I give in?
Please forgive
My evil sins

Such sweet divine
Wonderful cries
So filled with lies
A part of me dies
You beg and plead
Pity you need
You fail to see
I hold this creed
Despite this hurt
I stay alert
Yet you deny
The love inside
You hear me cry
My sweet divine
Look inside
My sweet divine
Forever mine
Sweet divine
You, YOU and I!
…(pause).....
Sweet divine
Sweet divine

"I Manipulate"

I manipulate me
I encourage me
I disappoint me

I manipulate me
I motivate me
I despise me

I manipulate me
I cry for me
I loathe me

I manipulate me
I smile at me
I am ok with me

I manipulate me
I try for me
I fail for me

I manipulate me
I focus me
I stop me

I manipulate me
You see me smile
I see me frown

I manipulate me
You proud of me
I embellish me

I manipulate you
I manipulate me
I’m not always what you think you see

I am sorry

For I.....

I manipulate me
