  A Deity

  By SoulPoetry, Sierra Madre, CA

  So much comfort can be found in a fast-fading dream Yet the most beautiful fade into the wind like mist in a warm summer breeze. The dreams of loneliness become evanescent and the light of an angel breaks through the darkness I become silent, the words are stuck in the back of my mind, never maki...

  Aphrodite

  

  By SoulPoetry, Sierra Madre, CA

  Awed by heavenly beauty, the words of lovely poetry are broken into simplicity. Blinding melodies are sung to announce the arrival of an august divinity. The constellations are dumbfounded by your radiance as the moon collides with the sun. Dusk is overshadowed by Dawn. The embraces of Love and ...

  Song of the Moment

  

  By SoulPoetry, Sierra Madre, CA

  In just one fleeting second in your presence, Melodies are inspired; however, they are evanescent. Lyrics come to life but they lose their senses. They are lost in the moment And driven to silence. The drums are muffled then silent, Just like my heart, when I'm around you. The song pul...

  Thanks Vicky

  

  By SoulPoetry, Sierra Madre, CA

  Her name was Delilah; My name is Derek and this is my story. I remember the moment I first met her. Those hazelnut eyes that sparkled shyly, her hair the shade of the summer sun, and that smile of hers which reminded me of a milk white crescent moon. She was a shy girl, always stayed away from the o...

  The Hypocrisy of Equality

  

  By SoulPoetry, Sierra Madre, CA

  You're locked away, never to be found; Forced to be clandestine, never to be heard; Buried 10 feet, under never to be unearthed. Promises of your arrival become rampant. Blood has been spilled for your ransom for a contract. The document that'll fulfill your declaration. The only w...

  Art Throuh Pain

  

  By SoulPoetry, Sierra Madre, CA

  In the dusk of life's cruel day. The artist alleviates his frustration through a new form of artistic expression. His canvas, his wrists with almost patriotic colors of red and blue veins.  The tool to create. Just a simple blade sharper than his own slick tongue when convincing himself to ...

  The Day

  

  By SoulPoetry, Sierra Madre, CA

  The day they attacked. When they pushed you and insulted you. Shattering your fragile soul with lies and threats. Mocking your existence. Spitting acidic racial slurs. Degrading you and vandalizing your fortress of hopes and dreams. Enjoying your torment like cruel slavers. Imprisoning you in...

  Be Free

  

  By SoulPoetry, Sierra Madre, CA

  Try and be the juggernaut. Try to destroy my Great Wall. What purpose does it serve you? To destroy fortresses of hopes and pillaging the towns of dreams and senselessly attack the people which are our self esteem. Why did you join the Huns? Remember when we were children? You were as innocent...
