All Mine

Not all who desire try,
Yet, most who can't, pretend.
Not me, I'll act and own the deed —
Failure or success —
For this dream,
It's all mine.

#vsspoem prompt for September 2nd, 2021: Deed

The Gesture

It's not the gift that wins a heart,
At most, it grants a lease —
Worth lies in the gesture,
Not the things.

#vsspoem prompt for September 1st, 2021: Gesture

While I'm Here

Love me, hate me,
Praise me, damn me —
But do it while I'm here.

#vsspoem prompt for August 31st, 2021: Praise

Carving Paths

Unmade choices
Cut deepest,
Carving paths not taken
Into borders never to be
Crossed again.

#vsspoem prompt for August 30th, 2021: Carve

What We Learn

What we crave
Is to be loved,
Yet, what we learn
Is how to hurt —
How mistakes
Get amplified,
Then are returned.

#vsspoem prompt for August 29th, 2021: Return

Say Geronimo

Crutch nor cane
To help us stand,
Chute nor net
To break our fall,
Unsecured or not at all —
Say Geronimo.

#vsspoem prompt for August 28th, 2021: Crutch

What It's About

Half way through
The book of life
Without so much as a clue
What it's about.

#vsspoem prompt for August 27th, 2021: Book

Second Tries

A single step
Taken back
Won't move us forward,
Fear of failure paralyzes —
What we need are
Second tries,
Not second chances.
Never stop failing.

#vsspoem prompt for August 26th, 2021: Fail

Window of Change

We stare at blank walls
With our backs to
A window of change.

#vsspoem prompt for August 25th, 2021: Window

Never Changed

Regret nor repentance
Ever changed a thing.

#vsspoem prompt for August 24th, 2021: Repent

Limited

Limited choices
May still hold
Endless possibilities.

#vsspoem prompt for August 23rd, 2021: Possibility

Not Once

If not once,
Then not always —
At most, ever after.

#vsspoem prompt for August 22nd, 2021: After

Solitary Consequence

Unintended
Rarely means
Solitary consequence.

#vsspoem prompt for August 21st, 2021: Unintended

Story Ends

Save the rare spoiler
We'll never know
How our story ends. 

vsspoem prompt for August 20th, 2021: Spoiler

A World Beyond

Remember,
There's a world
Beyond your senses.

#vsspoem prompt for August 19th, 2021: World

Into Temptation

Bound in chains of virtue
To keep us from
The path of sin.
A blissless life,
A life unlived —
Lead us out of emptiness
Into temptation.

#vsspoem prompt for August 18th, 2021: Virtue

The Heart Amplifies

The soul receives,
The heart amplifies —
Frequencies brave the distance
Across space and time.
I feel you.

#vsspoem prompt for August 17th, 2021: Amplify

Alternate Libido

How will you
Get to know yourself
If you fear to see it through?
Chase those feelings
Down the rabbit hole —
Discover
Your alternate libido.

#vsspoem prompt for August 16th, 2021: Libido

Of Hide and Seek

Life, made a game
Of hide and seek —
Close your eyes
And count to
A hundred.

#vsspoem prompt for August 15th, 2021: Game

Butterfly

Cherished dreams,
Once abandoned,
Hold but beauty
Like a perished butterfly.

#vsspoem prompt for August 14th, 2021: Butterfly
