An image of the coast one half of which is overexposed

Nostalgia can blur reality
Idealizing what once was
Brightly polish memory
Your vision rose-colored
You remember the good
Forget the bad
Just seeing
What you
Want

A person watching a fire burn

#9linepoem #UnchainedSymphonies
A Longing burning brightly within
The desire you reach out for
Money, affection or fame
Feels unattainable
But that fire won't quell
It only grows
You Perpend*
You strive
Want
*to reflect on carefully : ponder

A handwritten note

#FromOneLine #9linepoem #VssDaily
I Didn't Write This, she said Puzzled
Though the point of a ruse? Obscure
Who would counterfeit love notes?
Was someone matchmaking?
Or causing problems?
But unfelt love
Upsetting
Expressed
False

Creatitity misunderstood
A State of Chaotic Magic
A Harvest Torn from within
And willingly displayed
Braving the critics
Practice in hope
In patience

A mint plant

#WildWalkPrompt #9linepoem  
Thirst for mojito or Mint julep
Light & refreshing to enjoy
A summertime specialty
Taste that reminds of sun
Of ocean breezes
During twilight
With you
Love

A determined woman in armor

She only sang The Undertaker's Lullaby, only drew A Vengeful Portrait in Ash. Refusing to let go of the Anger only produced Agony. She Would try to rid herself of it by goning on Attack.

A Fussy child, an empty Bottle
A Mess that feels overwhelming
Feeling pulled in every way
Teething and diapers
But do not forget
Precious time

A tremor quakes deep within my chest,
Relentless anxiety claws,
Thoughts spiral like leaves in storms,
Heart races, frantic pulse,
Fears whisper secrets,
Nerves fray and snap,
Unsettled,
Rattled,
Hush.

Doves head toward Pomegranates on a ledge. Some Pomegranates are embedded in the wall, like cannonballs

#EkphrasticVoice #9linepoem #moonmystic #Vss365
I am Hollow, Seeing Through Blind Eyes
Deluding myself in my Grief
No cannonballs have fallen
Changed to pomegranates
No loved ones were lost
Doves replace them
Light for dark
Hiding
Pain

A woman walks as she beats a large drum

#macabrewords #9linepoem #BlueSkyRelay
Far from Stentornian* herself
The drum became her heart's Cadence
Fast and booming for anger
Shy? Soft and fluttery
Fear? A rapid beat
Showing feelings
And for love?
Steady
Calm
*loud powerful voice

A man on a beach, embraces a woman who is Ghostly, she is defined by the Silhouette of a bare tree

#macabrewords #vssfantasy #VssDaily #moonmystic #9linepoem 
In Reverie under a Full Moon
Illusions of you swirl around
On the Eve of Denouement
Embroiled in dreaming
Willing we don't end
Knowing we do
Rejecting
Goodbye
Blind
#writingprompt #imageprompt #poetry #nonette #sadstory

Walking away, although words linger
Stinger embedded in sharp ears
Tongue proven effective spear
Pen following smooth suit
Deep dipped brush in paint
Subtle it ain't
Splashed on walls
Provokes
Calls

You demand my explanation
"This is the The Color of Regret"
My answer leaves you Perplexed
I was too Gullible
Believing your lies
Feeling a fool
Heartbroken
Dreary
Lost

My opponents tell me I'm Silly
That I do not know how to play
I say I write my own rules
On this board I hold sway
Pawn, king matters not
All chess pieces

Play to

"Mama Mía!" cries my restless fork,
Famished like a breadless "cesto",
yearning for parmesana,
spaghetti galaxies,
meatballs in orbit,
tomato sauce,
garlic bread,
pasta,
smack!

My course is Unsure as I'm Exposed
Do I fight my way out, or wait?
Was supposed to stay hidden
Nothing more than a Mist
But something went wrong
No safety net
I'm falling
Failure

Like a Sturdy house in a rainstorm
A solid rock mass to build on
Or roots that keep trees aloft
Your friendship gives support
Encourages me
Is uplifting
And valued
Priceless

Only N Amity can we calm
Surrounded by true friends we thrive
Attain a Liberosis*
The world can fade away
A break from demands
Friendship soothes pain
Consoles hurts
Helps us
Grow

Ambivalence curls in whispered fog;
Doubt clings, a spider's fragile thread;
Ambiguous winds bend the mind.
Hesitance hovers, still.
Uncertain hearts fray;
Vague as dusk’s haze,
Undefined,
Unsure,
Lost.

Lonesome in my Solitude I fade
Despondent over Loss of you
Pieces of my heart scatter
Like dry leaves on the wind
Maybe I'll join you
Reunited
Made complete
Renewed
Loved

A long walk down sweet and sour memory life lane,
Unstoppable me—sometimes I stumble, sometimes I gain.
Roadblocks rise, they can't halt my stride,
I #travel on, experiences my guide.
Reaching the finish line,
Breaking the chains,
Final destination
Freedom.

#vss365 #uropoet #nonet #9linepoem

Sitting on the stairs
in the early morning breeze
wondering how send word
to put minds at ease...
A head full of emotions
Her heart full of unrest
Body aching with stress
contemplating tomorrows unknown
she felt completely powerless...

#9linepoem #liberosis #vss365 #dud #uropoet

A wish to shed this mind’s weary duds,
The urge to care just a bit less.
Liberosis, soft release;
Each worry floats away,
Each tether undone.
What’s left, unbound,
Light and free,
Drifting,
Gone.
