“When my thoughts are hushed, they are not tranquil. I am restrained on the edge of panic. In a single heartbeat, a moment of realization washes over me, uprooting emotions of regret, anxiety and fear. All the psychedelic feelings in that single heartbeat form my silence.”
“For the last couple of years I have been in a tumble dry cycle – hurled around, hitting against the sides of drum, erratically lacerated, mangled, being knocked and jolted about some more, not knowing how bloody long the cycle would continue for or where the next blow would come from. Then suddenly, intermittently, the cycle stops. I violently jolt to a screaming halt…………. I am knocked senseless by it; the trauma is so great, it’s unrelenting.
Thank you all for following Poetry on Life’s Journey. For giving me the inspiration to keep going.xx
Finally the court case took place and was settled, I am so satisfied I finally feel vindicated and validated.
Here is a video made up with words from my poems.
This is the first Poem I wrote after the break up.
‘Only Love
It began as a love story
Crazy days of faith, love and passion
We grew so close so fast You said we were soul mates for life I lost my world to you I trusted you with my deepest thoughts Most intimate moments My future Our future Bonded in the ebbs and flows We would make it together
As days became a lifetime
Unwavering faith In the chorus of warnings I battled your place with me Bold and revolutionary No one would take this away from us
But then you did You took it away Without a word You left me in a haze Took my breath away Your force so strong Chaos controlled my mind The lie so real My passion abused Reckless abandonment My faith, my love You did not face me You left me with nothing My life shattered
I wonder through my Art Profoundly A part of my life For the delights and hopes of life Seeing in them memories of intimate times Calming my fears, my sadness Evoking as only art can do The spirit in me to live again Desperate to know WHY I got lost in your deceit In your fucked up mind WHY You hunted me down And played me as a game WHY You ripped me apart WHY You crushed my soul,
I sit at my desk and find my dignity My strength But only for a moment
then
I want to scream..
All I want to do is scream I want my anger to go away its like a blazing flame I want my despair to leave me I am drowning in pain I want my sanity back I don’t know where to find it
So as I sum this up Go listen to our song Remember in your heart I gave you my heart and soul, my mind and body My life I believed in you I am wishing for you to stay strong Wish upon every star you see And if its meant to be it will come true… No more Crazy Days with You’
Micropoetry is a genre of poetic verse which is characterized by its extreme brevity. In other words, a micropoem is a short poem.
Micropoetry is a collective term for a variety of different forms of short poetry. As a poetic artform, it doesn’t really have any rules. Although it does consists of certain forms of short poetry with fixed rules such as haiku, tanka, senryu and gogyohka. There are also no real character length limitations either. The limits are set by the medium with which they are being shared, and also that invisible line where micropoetry becomes a regular length poem.
I have listed a number of such poems under this category.
