Everyone is welcome
Once upon a time
This man he had to rhyme
He was a rather grumpy guy
And he did not like to lie
Spontaneous was he
Imaginative as can be
Sarcasm flooded him
Bursting from within
Moralistic fool
Certainly not cool
Principally strong
Hates being wrong
Such a stubborn fool
Bullied at school
Unpopular to the max
Will never look back

Taken from Rhyming poetry to change your day by Philip Lister
Sun is rising, Oh so hot
Sat here naked, Wondering what
To do with my day
Or should I just lay
Not a care in the world
The time can unfurl
To be free to be
What ever I want truly
No restraints
No complaints
No pain
No refrain
Liberation
Respiration
Play your life
Roll the dice

If we went back in time what would we change?
Do you have regrets for your life so strange?
Do you think it would matter one bit or two?
Stop doubting your choices, do what you have to do

What do you think about fate?
What does it say to you?
Is it what’s meant to happen?
What life puts you through?
I ask myself the question
Then I say I’m gonna change it
Then I ask myself again
Has it changed or was it this?
I’m not happy in life
Was it meant to be?
It’s me who decides.
Am I sure? Am I free?
We are never really free in life
Choices to be made all the time
We are all just obedient cogs
Decided that we will tow the line

Rhyming poetry to change your day
Why is there always one ?
One who you cannot stand
Who gets underneath your skin
Eats away at you from within
You cannot lash out, it’s not correct!
Be the adult, it’s him the pest.
Resist resist, don’t bite you fool.
Be the bigger man, it’s all cool.
His arrogance and ego will get him.
He’ll do it all by himself.
But why is there always one?
Easy life never was any fun

I’ve thought about you
For as long as I can think
I cherish the most
How much we speak
.
All the little comments
Sparking my delight
Makes me want you even more
Not just to pass the night
.
You planted the seed
A long time ago
You nurtured the seedling
As you watched it grow
.
You would water it
As you would see fit
Not really protecting it
Just a little bit
.
When confessing my feelings
Hoping there was a chance
You would pull away
Not even a glance
.
That plant you had nurtured
Was being left to die
With words uttered forget me
It was all just a lie
You said you would be here
Down by the water
As the sun rose
And we would be in each others arms
.
But you’re not here
As you promised
What’s going on?
Why did you lie?
.
I sit by the water
As if my tears had filled the lake
And all I can think
Is why did I make this mistake?
.
I trusted you
That you would be mine
I gave myself
I was your shrine
.
I left everything
And now I am here alone
I don’t even have a place
To call my home
.
Where are you?
Please find me
I can’t be by myself
Without you there is no me
Oh how I despise
The frightfully cold delight
The wind is curling my toes
And blowing me to and fro
.
I can’t stand it anymore
I just want it to thaw
Just go away, pesky snow
On your way, begone, go
.
I’m freezing all the way to my bones
So cold, even in my home
Even this cup of tea
Is doing nothing for me
.
Rain rain and rain again
Floods ahoy, when will it end?
The bridges are closed
There’s rain to my toes
.
Breathe…… Breathe
It’s not forever
It will pass
Never say never
.
And where are the flowers?
In my wanting voice
Where are you hiding?
When can I rejoice?
.
It’s nearly here
Almost out of the woods
The forest flooded too
If only it could
.
Watching the raindrops
Trickle the window
Tracing with my finger
To and fro
.
Till that first day of warmth
Feel that sun on your skin
Oh how it feels good
Feeling the warmth within
I have found you
After all this time
Perfect for me
Finally mine
.
But doubt is sewed
That little seed
Starting to grow
Like a fucking weed
.
Why do you torment me?
I never asked
Why do you follow me?
Shine on my past
.
I’m happy now
But am I?
What do you want?
How can I know?
.
A million questions
Buzzing around
Building its nest
Deeply profound
.
I don’t know how to deal
How to even try
I have lost the skills
My will is dry
.
Will the droplet fall?
Off of the edge
Will the puddle form?
Will the thoughts pledge?
.
Will the puddle become a river ?
That my boat will sink
Or will I reach the side ?
Climb to the brink
.
I feel I would float off to the sea
There my thoughts can die
As for what to do now
I can’t even answer why
I never thought sleeping in your arms
Would feel so good
I can’t remember the last time
I was with someone
You light me up with your smile
Your eyes magically enticing me
If this feeling was a drug
I want to stay forever dependent
There can be no consequences
Euphoric pleasure filling my blood
Inject me in my veins
And never let the supply end
Closing my eyes watching the stars
In the darkness
Forever in your warmth
Enveloping me
Crawl inside me
And let us be one
