Poetry: The unsaid word

Idiosyncrasy

Fingertips mark distinction
And still we share the night
Holding hands with hope
To set the world alight

The Sun it shines above our heads
Shimmering on the surface of concrete souls
The Moon it accentuates silhouettes
That guard our mechanized roles

And by design we forge encounters
Which we then battle in spoken word
And by design we ignore our theosophy
And all deliberation goes unheard

But united by the sky
Our surrender we condone
And in our dreams we make our beds
And reality we postpone

We paint eachothers pictures
And we stay between the lines
Photocopying thought processes
To find comfort in like-minds

But our fingerprints mark distinction
And still we share the night
Holding hands with hope
To set the world alight

    The unsaid word
    Comes in what
    You see
    Pleases the eye

    The grace of a man
    Is to stand
    His position

    In the peaceful duty
    Placed on

    Unfinished Sonnet

    I wanted to tell you just how I was feeling,

    The Word

    Why is it used so openly?
    Carelessly it often breaks hearts,
    and brings about sadness
    to all who believe in its worth.
