Picture of a Picture
PICTURE OF A PICTURE by @poeeternal I have a picture of a picture It was clear I wasn't stricter I have a picture of her picture He'd still be here if I were richer It won't be long & he will ditch her She'll have a picture of his picture Bury her head deep into…
Through To You
Is there a special niche needed to get through to you? How much time should one have to pursue? You threw down the gauntlets and then you withdrew You said you'd be back but it's clear that we're through I could wait long hours and it's something you knew Feeling something real has been long…
Call To Battle
Street lights are blinding Friends don't need reminding Words are spellbinding If you try Why are you hiding Afraid of me lying The temperature now rising That sound is my battle cry Always denying Your words I'm not buying Left us all crying But I cannot be modified © Delia Ross. 2019
Gratitude
I am so grateful for all the traffic that my website has been receiving. It is a great honor to be able to share my words with you and that you keep coming back to read more. As such, and as a thank you, I will be releasing my epic poem in three parts, which…
DETAINED
OLD PHOTO, NEW POEM! 'DETAINED' by @poeeternal He makes me want to sin But it'd be heaven I contend The way his words move under my skin I'd fall for him again and again I once made my amend While feeling silence closing in If only there were more moments to spend Would he care…

Severed Connections
Always alone, what else do we know? We have grown accustomed to loom Universally we stand connected By lines to each other's doom How erroneous to accept The progress of dreaming, The TV is on, my computer is streaming All the world is aglow... © Delia Ross. 2010
A Chapter Yet Filled
Who here desire that love be all one needs? Surely, I say not for me. Though love proves a clever disguise, Love does not make one wise. It preys upon the weak The mere beauty only, For purity it speaks. And I a blossom yet to bloom, This cold entraps and seals my wounds. I…
Seconds to Love
He is not the bird in a cage He is not the burn, or the flame He is not the bird falling from the sky He has not the look of abandonment in his eye He is not doubt, he is not the plague He is not boredom nor is he rage There is a…
Tidal Locking
His smile is the brightest lighthouse in the galaxy And even on cold nights, as they always are without him As I'm bound in all my fallacies My chances looking grim He stops and says he enjoys the catastrophes And all is right again Have you felt his gravity Until the doubt sets in? ©…
Word cloud by PoeEternal
It was already broken when he arrived Packaged neatly in pieces and assembly advised He took me on like he'd won the grand prize We jumped every hurdle despite those red flags It's hard to keep up when one's memory lags But on with the show there's more women to snag! A map can be…

hightlight reels
I know these are highlights of your life And wintry inside feels the knife I've never owned a set of pearls There's been at least a thousand girls Tomorrow seems so different now You lied when you gave me your vow I can be a terrible friend I'd take a bullet for you in the…
Explorer, not a destroyer
Inviting in the dark
You need to be careful of that, inviting in the dark Less it be a longer journey for you to embark He's not a guest, wouldn't make him your patriarch And during the night is when he's best dressed He'll gather in crowds with her I have guessed His love is a curse, her soul…
Traces of places by PoeEternal
Sometimes come around now & then It's hard to forget all the places that I've been I'd rather face the crowd than live a life of pretends Living an honest life are the roads few transcends And we both know those aren't the type of parties he attends There's plenty evil in the world for…
Sun day by PoeEternal
VS1 Needed some time to clear the things he said Too many demons were dancing under my bed Sat around praying and wishing he was dead I'd be lying to say he was not still inside my head CHORUS The river runs dry where there is blood I missed him so much it always hurt…
The day that you're dead will be the day that you died And we both really know you never were alive inside It won't be the first time though you made another human cry But I can promise that you won't get a drop from these eyes Some wonder why I'm now desensitized With a…
Spaces by PoeEternal
Some spaces are not meant together No matter the force You & I were antimatter and You loved me in fourths My soul was not for you to barter Yet I had not a choice How many now were made a martyr Rules you have to enforce #writing #poetry #poeeternal #deliaross #broken #lovers #spaces
I'm trying to get my life together And you seem to stay under the weather It was love for worse & not for better There's a hundred lines now on the matter To tell the truth I couldn't be sadder Loving you required lots of leather #amwriting #poetry #poeeternal
Purgatory
A narcissistic devil preys on women
Womanizer
His words will always belie his truth Underneath the charm a body uncouth Notice how he's always feeding on the youth? Always with his nose sniffing like a sleuth If you knew his heart you'd find he has no ruth © Delia Ross. 2018 Find me on Facebook at PoetryforPeople I'm on Insta too! Keepin'…
Love ISN’T Real
Love ISN'T Real
Intermission
INTERMISSION by @poeeternal / delia ross You don't always have to start at the beginning Not everything is always about winning And even your soul needs special innings There's too much strife not enough grinning Right about now you could be imprinting I hope it's good energy you're giving Bandaging those wounds you've been bleeding…
No Trust
I mean it's pretty bad when you can't trust your own government Everyone judges like we're wrecking havoc One foot in the grave with their bad habits Staring at me as if on autopilot Well I can't be the only one whose tired of it I'm not the one who needs a straightjacket You lie…
Apathy
I have but apathy to loan Where once a heart of gold Now all but shades of stone The clouds a frown The dirt my home I am but a shadow more The frost withered on the grass A sound upon shattered glass A wall without a door © Delia Ross. 2018 Find me on:…
Cacophonous sounds from my tv Lies packaged and wrapped like greetings Designed to give false readings Make your heart stop beating Taking tours in the wasteland Never was a big fan He made me cry in Dublin A mistress as his right hand Said he'd treat me like a royal But none of you are…
Don’t Want To Know
I don't wanna know how many days it's been It still feels like day one You and I cannot be friends And the Earth no longer turns We spiraled out & lost control again Yet my heart it still burns Always made me last instead- should have been your number one #amwriting #poeeternal #songwriting #music…
Between cigarettes There must be some regret I can't deal with you now You bring loneliness With empty promises And the promise of child It's getting cold, she said You never were impressed There's a lesson here somehow Always late for bed It's the consequence Of figuring you out Always wrong, you plead But it…
I dream of standing on the moon The way it shines I shine for you
