Poems and Quotes by martinhjr

Love in Vain

Help me find a rose that'll never die.
it is what my hand wants to hold,
what I need to be whole.
I've plucked many without a soul,
each owning my own,
and here I'm left on a porch

In Time One Shall Be

The demon free 
the spirit of own consumed
it is as though i'm dreaming:

But how?!
was I not the seed 
that would one day sprout
to tower above all else?
so wrongful I was and now

Send

Send to waste
the mindless beings
whom drain us all
and slowly bleed the world
With lies and mock.
 
Send to save
the mindful spirits
whom bring us love
and hold each other in hope

A Deal in the Fields

Wither, my dreams
what do I need of you now?
I'm senseless in direction
rotten, spent
In need of redemption

A wistful hum heard near the sea
the burn it brings
may death be near?

Mary

Gone outside into a land of green
on a day without a shade of grey
joy and laughter brought upon our souls
as we passed about a hundred oaks
lost in a sea of wonder
together
Just Mary and I

My Angel

Angel why won't you care
care for me?
must I heed your wishes?
must I remain here?
your tears
Ripple me unclear

Skin of winter's cold
your feathered wings torn

Oil Eyes

Oil-filled eyes
face made of glass
it had no feelings
It had no batteries

It's eyes stared at a different world
an empty place
All had a glass face

The body was incomplete

Naiveté

Forgive my foolishness
it is not what I intend.
for when I create I am confounded,
only made are the opposite of my ends.
so I continue to build upon these misunderstandings
and in doing so
searching for an exit
from the lie I've given my life.
my attempts have left me in delusion,
in greater debt to a mind insane.
nothing's changed
I know I haven't
and as I see it

Left to Wander

Left home in the cold of night
moon in sight
leaves still falling
the path was mine
and mine alone
nothing to remind me
Of what had occured

Slow steps becoming slower
I felt it hard and I knew where it hurt
it was the same pain I felt
when I learned my father
Would never return

It was too much to bear
that what I had lost
Was all that cared

Now alone I wander about

One-Sided Deal

Unfortunate souls lost forever
Innocence taken for own pleasure
Born to harm one another

Man's expense
God's emolument

Pale Reflection

Cold day in winter
trees have withered and the Earth
become
Our gloomy lake of crystal

Grey the beauteous sky
gazed by sullen eyes
it all seemed so true
So right

Near the edge
of a concrete road
a quiet man strolled
shivering beneath his feet
hundreds of bones
He was hollow

Fog roamed thick
and in the distance
one could hear
the sudden weak cry
Of the broken man

Human Sand

Underneath the world
there is an hourglass
inside there is no sand
But billions of humans

Falling for believing
that the land above
and the life they lived
Was a beautiful gift

Given by God

Fish's Cry

The ocean wailed
as I set sail
in a ship of old age
Made of old black shells

I heard her voice
I had no choice
and so she was left immersed
No hand close enough to save her

She can't be saved
she can't be saved
I'm sorry but it's too late

Be an Angel

I see faces in the trees of Eden
they laugh at me
they know I don't belong
so why, I ask, do they keep me here?
am I just another stone
To be sunk in a river?

Roots grown from the heart of eternity
needless to say
I'm still human
but you can change me
do it
do what's best for me
though I promise you I won't stay
my feet will leave the sand
my body will touch the heavens

Bad Liver

The smell of your eyes
they squint pink
from the fire of my decisions
now you've closed the door
and left me to think
About how I'm so different

Alley Girl

Carefully she walks
tring so hard to be brave
they all see her fear
dark glasses conceal their eyes
As hers flow with tears

Why you and not I?

In time your eyes
they'll begin to starve
for what long ago
you had lost
and I'll remain high above
without you
better off

A victim I am
to your envious heart
born within you
the day I died
you don't mourn
for my poor soul
instead you plead
"Why you and not I?"

Arise

Absence spent in illusion
hosted by false hopes.
for what is grief?
to shed man of purpose?

I find myself so desperate
to renew the soul
for I no longer wish
to dream days away
but rather pen reason
With a word of purpose.

Love Worth Living

(And) If the sun had never risen
would there be this flower
Still blooming upon the Earth?

(And) If this flower had never been born
would her beauty have been felt
By this unworthy soul?

(And) If her beauty had never existed
would these words of love
Still have been written?

(And) If this love had never been
would this life
Be worth living?

Influence

To wonder of all
Is my curse
As it is my blessing.
For when struck by beauty or death
Words befall upon a book of dreams
Or so change the very life I live.
