Moving On
I walk around life inside a daze Bumping into problems, my eyes all glazed, Speaking incoherently, badly phrased, Walking around lost as if in a maze, My mind is constantly in a haze. And I keep going throughout the days, Going through every stage of life, every phase, Ignoring all these problems,...

Do You Hear it Calling? (Tetractys)
Hear The heart Whispering Of every truth That was ever known upon this great earth. But we do not hear the sounds of the heart For we are bound In our minds For all Time, Lost Inside Our old thoughts Loud as a scream That easily hides the beat of our souls And we forget to listen to what counts, And...

Human Faults (A Sedoka*)

Come Away and Dance (Rondeau*)
Will you dance with me in drapes of rain, That bathes your soul and releases pain? Just allow each drop to close the break, Leave all your worries for it to take, And feel your problems being drained. Feel the rhythm flow inside your veins, And begin to move within rain’s domain; Feel yourself...

A Vampire's Loss (Rearrangement)
*Note to readers: Let me explain the creation of this poem, and maybe you can try it for yourself because it's really fun!

The Love Forsaken (Kyrielle)
Might heart, won’t you listen now? After all this, I take a vow: While the dear sun has yet to wake, His hardened heart, my love forsakes. Deep within the sweet balmy night, I will fill you with all of my spite, I’ll leave my love for you to take, His hardened heart, my love forsakes. Mighty heart,...

Past Lives (Tanka)
Mysteries of yore Threaded through the sleeper's mind; The dust of past times, Softly settled in dreaming, Gently calling out your name. Copyright © 2008 by Mindy Yu. All Rights Reserved.

The POEM GAME results...
Redolent Deception Scent of lies awful stench olfactory it stings my nostrils, Pollutes my heart and mind its a disgrace for my nose. I can't stand those who hide the truth they always live lives of pure deceit and when the time comes to pay their accounts when they are called to face the music they...
