Ten Short Verse Abstract Poems
By
Red Door
(1)
A river runs
True to blood
Carrying dreams
Running away it seems
Faltering in such needs
All that we believe
Is being washed away
Forever it seems
In a direction
Often unseen.....
(2)
The doorway to
Oblivion opens wide
Beyond all time
Ceases the mind
Forever into the sublime
Worries fade away
The price we must pay
For such arrogance invades
There is no truth in shame
Only more of the same
Across the threshold
The journey begins.....
(3)
A prison is time
As the clock unwinds
We are subject to
It's rules defined
If we resist its influence
We will be crushed
Into nothing,
From a shape filled form
To a being with none
Time is the passage
Life is the journey...
(4)
Thou art waiting
Within the throws of clarity
Thou art committed
Thy lessons unfold
Thy truth be told
There is no other way
Shield thy eyes,
Cover thy ears,
If thou not ready to
Know such things
Of importance.....
(5)
Clutch and grip
Loosen thy lips
Freedom of words
Beyond the absurd
A story to be told
A truth unknown
Reality it seems
Is misunderstood
Won't you agree?
(6)
I once saw a man
Standing at the crossroads,
He waited for days
Unsure which way to go
He reached for the sky
And let out a cry
Help me so,
For I just don't know,
In no time he made up his mind
He went the way he was shown
God only knows....
(7)
There is love to be found
There is time to be profound
Speak out,
Stand before others
Say what you must
Because before long you
Will become silent,
By then it will be to late
For such luxuries....
(8)
We are all that
We allow ourselves to be
A system of beliefs
Based on our needs
Which are breed into
Who we are
By all that we see,
And all that we can dream
Reality is indeed much
Different that it
Sometimes seems....
(9)
Simply put
Easily defined
The truth will not hide
In plain site
All will be exposed
If you know where to look
Than you will see it
For what it really is
What that is up to you
Because the truth is
Succeptable to the lies
You have told...
(10)
There can be no other way
Mutual respect is the foundation
Of all human interaction.
We must listen clearly
As others speak their truths,
We must accept all that
They are saying as part
Of who they are,
So that in many ways
We can grow to
Understand ourselves
Through their words.....
