Toxic ways

Anarchy, authors, buddhism, consciousness, discovery, feelings, free verse, inspiration, Lao tzu, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality, thoughts

Guarded against toxic people

Sometimes we shut good ones out

What can we do when we put up walls

That’s the flaw when you choose

A life of negative rules

To protect yourself against the fear

Of those who may try and assail you

Life you see can be bitter and cruel

And nothing can make you ammune

Except the experience of going through this hard life that brewed

And around us toxic people choose to add to all our pain and stress

But the more we learn how to deal with them

Then we may get a better understanding how to overcome them

With out shutting them out and instilling walls

That serves to divide us one and all

So here is my defiant call

That you will not force me down the same

I won’t play your toxic games

I will rise up once again

Showing my tolerance and kindness each day

That will reflect upon you the stain of your ways

And manifest upon you the shame

That will hopefully change your ways

And us needing to build walls to shut them out will now be saved

And life will seem less depraved

With the ending of these toxic ways.

The darkest places within me

Authenticity, authors, buddhism, connection, consciousness, Divine, feelings, Lao tzu, love, Metaphysics, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality

I discovered light

In the darkest places

Sparks that left traces

For me to follow

So I’d find hope

Even within

My deepest despair

And I found love

And rediscovered

My spiritual faith

And I learnt to smile again

In defiance of such pain

I saw the dawning

If a new age

Like the light of a new day

Slowly rising up to shine on

Me oncd again

And bathed

In the warmth of it rays

The love took my breath away

It gave me back my life

That I thought I’d never had again

And now I laugh

Instead of cry

I survived and I did not die

Though it was close

But the I saw the spark of light

Out of the corner of my eye

And I saved and lifted up

To a new life that is brave

For I learnt to master my fears

And though knocked down

I got up because I knew

I didn’t belong on the ground

And now life abounds

With universal blessings

That in the light

It healed all the pain deep in me

And gave me meaning

To live

To love

To dream

And to hope once again

Because I found the light

In thd darkest of places

We ithin me.

Valentines day pain

authors, buddhism, connection, consciousness, Divine, feelings, free verse, Lao tzu, love, Metaphysics, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality

No one understands the pain

Of true terrible loss that flows through the veins

Of losing a child on valentines day

Then ask why you not celebrate

The love abounding on this occasion come what may.

I’ve suffered and still go through this pain

But I still feel love but the hurt won’t abate

It washes over me wave after wave

My heart is broken and my soul can’t be saved

So I blank out valentines day

Because it is simply my worst day

Mh only solace is that the pain that won’t go away

Is all I have left of my baby girl today

Maybe that’s why I won’t let the pain fade

Because I will be left with nothing and so I keep that eventuality at bay.

Creepy tale and nightmare

authors, buddhism, consciousness, Divine, enlightenment, feelings, free verse, inspiration, Lao tzu, love, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality

A shudder in the dark

In a nightmare scene

Trepidation caused

By a howl and a scream

Many understand

This is a frightening theme

Not a nice cosy little dream

But a paranormal horror

That beggars beyond belief

A twisted face and gnashing teeth

Testing your spiritual belief

Fearing all will end in grief

Something wicked lays underneath

Waiting to devour

And feast in your soul

Something hideous

And out of control

Floorboards creak

And old doors groan

Chilling you too

The very maarow of your bones

Wondering what lays in wait next

Just then a garrote

Slips around your neck

Your airway constricts

And your rich deep hot blood flows

And death will follow next

This is a nightmare that will test you yet

You wake up and see the scar round your neck

Proving that you participated and that maybe you are blessed

But don’t get complacent yet

Because you’ve moved from this world into the next.

Love creation

Authenticity, authors, buddhism, consciousness, feelings, free verse, inspiration, Lao tzu, love, Metaphysics, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality

Escapades in love may come and go

Like seasons sun, rain, winds and snow

Yet we survive these changes

We rally and find strength to come again

We have the power within us to create our own story

We are the authors choosing our own path

Map out our own journey into love

Navigating us through it’s treacherous waters

Guiding us through it’s stormy tempestuous seas

And to stay intact holding on to our belief

And celebrating our spirituality

And our own innate existentiality.

Take to the streets

Activist, Anarchy, buddhism, consciousness, environmentalism, feelings, free verse, inspiration, Lao tzu, love, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality

Take to the streets

Demand fairness and equality

Stand up to corporate corruption

And all I ts exploitative greed

Stand up to governments who refuse to see

Climate issues and polluting sky earth and seas

Cutting down trees will cause misery

We need to take back the power

And form good sense nurturing policies

And find away to attract a society

Of love, equality and good deeds

We need more kindness, compensation and humility

To live as one race as part of one family

Where everybody acts for the greater good and behaves righteously.

Collectivist society

Activist, Anarchy, authors, connection, consciousness, environmentalism, feelings, inspiration, Lao tzu, Nature, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality

A collectivist society

Where everyone shares equally

In labour, production, rewards and sows seeds

Of collective profitabilty

Everyone invested a t the same level

No God’s, no masters, no bosses,

Just people working to get her go the common good

And then bartering with other collectives what they’ve produced

Where greed is no longer a primary life factor

Where as a result corruption no longer exists

No big corporations or banks controlling everything

My dream is one of global collectives

Caring for and nurturing one another and the planet

No more politics and the sham that it is

Just humanity working together for a common goal

But I am not sure people can be that bold to evolve

To this higher for of living and intelligence

Or being able to see this as common sense

It’s all a out we instead of me.

Love confusion

Authenticity, authors, buddhism, connection, consciousness, Divine, feelings, Lao tzu, love, Metaphysics, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality

Love is never lost

It just changes

When someone hurts

Or let’s you down

That’s about them

It’s not what loves done

It’s the human condition

When restricted and confined

Free and open love

That’s the best kind

No limits

No rules to break

Open trust

We must communicate

There is danger

Within setting limits

Keep your love strong

When alone

Or when you fall in it

Know that life

And people change

Good and toxic people

Will come our way

Sometimes we will fall

For those not good for us at all

But there are lessons

To be learnt in this

Don’t blame love for taking a risk

Or thinking that you plated it safe

Love is a continual state

That lies within in

And connects to others

When theirs is gone

Yours still remains

You just lose sight of it

In your anger

And your bitterness

Heartbreak stops you feeling it

The trick is to keep hold

And your focus on it

Heal yourself with this self love

And realise that this

Love thing is within all of us

And in everything

And if we keep our hearts

And minds open

We will connect again

With someone else love

That they hold

And if not then be consoled

That you will never be alone

If this self love within you, you always hold.

Hard life truth

Anarchy, buddhism, consciousness, discovery, feelings, free verse, inspiration, Lao tzu, love, Metaphysics, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality

Life is hard we know this

But we don’t need to be too

We need strength to live it

But anger and bitterness has no gains

We must keep intact our love

We must keep our sense of kindness

We can be warriors of life

Without losing our compassion

We can rise above the tough times

Yet we can retain our tolerance

We can battle through and stay focused

While caring and sharing with others around

To do this elevates you upward

Rather than see us sink down in the mire

We can be better than we think

Even though life may make us tire

We can be golden we can be heroes

Of our only life story

It matters not how others perceive us

We can live life in goodness and spiritual glory.

Speak it

Anarchy, buddhism, consciousness, Divine, enlightenment, feelings, inspiration, Lao tzu, love, Metaphysics, philosophy, poem, poetry, Poets, spirituality

Be a mystic

Just think it

Take a word

And link it

To a thought

And mean it

Make it wise

Not ignorant

Make it clear

Not in different

Think deep

No shallow

Speak of love

Not of hate

Speak with passion

Not lethargy

Speak universal

Speak cosmic

Be spiritual

Not toxic

Speak truth

Not lies

Let your words

Go wide and fly.
