The LOVE

15 Tuesday Jan 2013

Tags

@tonyhaynes, Blog, Facebook, Love, Maya Angelou, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Twitter, Writing

love with hearts
Love, baby the love

That’s what keeps us
Here longer than we should be
Ever near much stronger than it would be

Love, baby the love
Only love can make us all we could be
Void us out sometimes we ponder, should we?
Each annoyed can we break up? We ask how could we?

…And even if we did, how would we
Not get back together?
In our hub it’s crazy enough
But we weather through whatever
Because of the love, baby the love

“The Rhythm Of A Better Life”

04 Wednesday Jul 2012

Tags

@paulamunos, @tonyhaynes, Arts, Facebook, Love, Maya Angelou, Music, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Tony Haynes, Twitter, Writing

I am without borders
Still within a trebled clef caused by this strife
Of living acapella
Lusting for the rhythm of a better life
As music seeks to strike a chord within my spirit
There is no major way for me to hear it
In isolation, how do I with my syncopated instrument
Orchestrate a sense of harmony
Not as one isolated incident…
…But as one with song that’s learned to dance with me

“Confessions Of A Soul Mate”

22 Friday Jun 2012

Tags

@paulamunos, @tonyhaynes, Facebook, Life, Love, Maya Angelou, Music, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Soul, Twitter, Writing

Sometimes I bore you
Sometimes I stress you
I adore you
I would rather decompress you
I confess
You…
Are the soul mate
I have had visions of
You are my life
And I live for your love

“Sweet Words”

18 Monday Jun 2012

Tags

@paulamunos, @tonyhaynes, @WriterPublisher, Art, Blog, Love, Maya Angelou, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Tony Haynes, Writing

I gaze at you and the stars
I wonder why they don’t compare
You shine brighter than they are
You make me need you more than air

I breathe you in
Exhale you out
Receive you when
The rose buds sprout

All at once I softly sigh
You smiled again and caught my eye
Silly me what could I do?
I found sweet words and wrote a few

“The Unconditional Condition”

07 Thursday Jun 2012

Tags

@paulamunos, Blog, Facebook, Love, Maya Angelou, Relationships, Romance, Tony Haynes, Twitter, Unconditional love, Writing

Sometimes you make me smile unconditionally
At times I cry when I think about what you do to me
The condition you leave me in
How you grieve me when
You have to go
It’s as if you’re conditioning me
To retrieve me in
Your afterglow
Is there something I have to know?
Have I nothing to worry over?
Or am I right tonight to have suspicion?
By daylight if you don’t hurry over
Must I discard my condition?
And allow you to flee you and me
Unconditionally

“A Fascinating Realization”

26 Saturday May 2012

Tags

@paulamunos, @tonyhaynes, @WriterPublisher, Facebook, Life, Love, Maya Angelou, Poetry, Romance, Tony Haynes, Writing


I find it fascinating how a

Blessing becomes a curse
And pleasure becomes torment
How what’s good turns worse
And active goes dormant

In the grand scheme
A man dreams
And right there
His plan is forsaken
As he awakens
From a nightmare

Once floored by a spell
 He is bored as hell
Nevertheless
The sight of a dress
Hugging curves
Captures his heart
Then rips it apart
And his ex says
It’s what he deserves

“A Poem For Your Love”

22 Sunday Apr 2012

Tags

Facebook, Life, Love, Maya Angelou, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Tony Haynes, Twitter

If I climbed a mountain
Would it be enough
To prove I’m worthy?

If I poured my soul out to you
Would you use my words
To hurt me?

If I come off as vulnerable
Would you take advantage of
Things in me that constitute real love?

It is highly unusual
Possibly improbable

But if I sailed three oceans
Would this suffice
And stimulate approval
For human sacrifice?

That give & take permissible
For a foolish heart to do
Honorably to honor
How deep I swam & climbed
 And fell for you

“For The Goddess She Is”

15 Sunday Apr 2012

Tags

Facebook, Love, Maya Angelou, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Tony Haynes, Twitter, Writing

How do I tell her
I’m her secret admirer
That I desire her
More than the air that I breathe
How do I tell her
To never leave

I want to inspire her
With encouraging words
To reach for the higher her
Though her vision is blurred

How do I tell her
Not just the quiet & shier her
I love the entire her
And who she is when she bleeds
How do I tell her
She’s every thing I need

The way the gods wire her
How modest she is
My feelings require her
For the goddess she is

Intelligent Life

10 Friday Feb 2012

Tags

Acrostic, Blog, Facebook, Maya Angelou, Poetry, Relationships, Romance, Tony Haynes, Twitter, Writing

Somewhere there is intelligent life
Undaunted by the daunting
Passionate, a perceptive
Experienced type
Really wanting what I’m wanting

Did I go there & why? I’m astounded
Until this very second I had been dumbfounded
Prepared to sail contaminated water
Earth prevailed, it moved
Removed & I got smarter

You unleashed my Intimate Qualities
Orchestrating through your genius, a bird’s eye view
Ultimately lifting my spirits…

…While raising my I.Q.

“Change Your Train of Thought”

30 Monday Jan 2012

Tags

Acrostic, Art, Blog, Facebook, Maya Angelou, Philosophy, Poetry, Romance, Tony Haynes, Writing

Decide to change your train of thought
Out of what is ordinarily Influential on a one-track-mind

It has kept you chugging down a line
Nine times out of nine
Contrarily conceived
Ride an out-of-the-box car
Emotionally loco-motive and not necessarily naive
Decide to change your train of thought
It is you – you are the conductor
But it is primarily believed
Life & death have made you a passenger in an
Environment that derails you from engine to caboose

To re-train how you treat your precious cargo
Here is where you turn you loose
In a perpetual
New perspective primarily perceived
Golden at all stations where higher consciousness is stored
So at the crossroads toward your destination …

… You’ll let body, mind & soul get on board
