Things of Note by PoeEternal
Bits of pieces here & there. Thoughts. Ideas. Microwords. I feel like watching you smile is one of the most beautiful things I can witness in life. If you can't have it, dream about it. Fantasize. Talk to yourself. Loneliness is a state, not a being. Be one with it. Love. Even when you can't.…
Love Like Russian Roulette
His love is like Russian Roulette For all he's had and still not found love yet Under his reign I had many debts The lost and wounded are his favorite pet's Losing you won't give him any regrets He's already forgotten you I bet His love was like Russian Roulette It doesn't matter if they…
When It Ends
When it ends there's not going to be time for goodbyes
Epitaph
And there upon my epitaph shall say, "died in the womb", for life never existed and the heart was a broken tomb. © Delia Ross. 2019
The Serpent
Ever kissed a serpent?
Rendezvous Avenue
If I were to take the blue Would it trouble you Can we meet Under the full moon Share secrets No other knew - Our complaints & grievance And pledge our allegiance Just between the two The air filled with sweetness From kissing all afternoon Utter discreteness At rendezvous avenue I gotta tent that sleeps…
War
Take heed my warning For death is coming The skies are painted red Mud instead is raining And burying the dead No amount of training Prepared for the bloodshed © Delia Ross. 2019
Words
I travel by poetry- Words are my train; I go many places, inside my own brain. © Delia Ross. 2019
Hugs Are Like Sunshine
Hugs are like sunshine which give life to the seed Into cracks of the heart it will open and seethe And it likely will ignite a smile guaranteed Now that the cracks aren't so deep underneath It's possible I may once again breathe you see © Delia Ross. 2019
Kintsugi for the Soul
There's always been something about you, that when I look at you, my soul just glitters; Gold energy that seals my wounds and puts me on display, at shops in LA Kintsugi for the soul A broken soul with golden tear trails It must look like a lightning bug on a warm Summer's day Every…
Outcasts
The moon and I, clothed in our own light, outcasts from the sun. We share a similar delight, that is of course the night. Alone, yet one. © Delia Ross. 2019
Black Star
To dream a life of pleasure, Reside a world of hell. Demands partial reason, Denies existence well. A star so dimly lit, Still reached the darkest soul. And in her heart he bit, Consumed it, left a hole. © Delia Ross. 2010
RESIDUE
The shore rises And as our dreams do Hopes are washed away inside us Awards instead of gifts as prizes Pills wrapped in silk disguises With this wave a bit of residue Likely he'll never get your point of view I'm sorry if I ever troubled you Give love a chance the universe advices We…
Laughter is Currency
Laughter is currency for the soul It's way more precious than silver or gold It can be packaged nicely & gifted or sold It never cheapens or ages or folds © Delia Ross. 2019
You Are The Reason
You are the light at the end of a tunnel The Sun after a storm You are the reason I dream in color The reason my smile takes form © Delia Ross. 2019
That one time Val Kilmer showed me some love
That one time Val Kilmer said he loved my handle.... 😍 I'm never changing my pseudo name! 😆
Breaks Like Sadness
She breaks like sadness dancing over the womb She aches as night washes over the Moon If you shine your light she will run too soon Overstay your welcome and she'll be gone by noon © Delia Ross. 2019
Chasing Ghosts
We've been lost on the same road Making circles back again We've been chasing all the ghost Who will destroy us in the end Along the way we have passed Pretending each were a friend How long can we last Avoiding roads full of sin What test do we pass Where does the road to…

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

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? ©…
Graduation #TBThursday
Despite all my setbacks, obstacles & roadblocks, from getting knocked up by a predator at seventeen, raising a child on my own without child- support, fighting in a war, living through a recession, I still managed to earn my degree. My story once made the news. I appreciate the cookies because I get zero support…
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

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
