They Call Me Seasons

They Call Me Seasons
by bratezg

They call me Seasons

I'm so moody blue

A spring time dreamer with dreams

that blossom and bloom

My expression, a winter day

Icey, quite cold

Autum eyes tell a story

... The greatest ever told

Carefree I come only to go

moving swiftly all the while and

They call me Seasons

The girl with a summer smile

FOOLISH FLY
by bratezg

Heart similar to the foolish fly
Caught up within a web
Deception the detour sign
Disguised and you are misled
Grasping stolen moments
Memories borrowed from time
When love deceives
... It rose colors truth,
and eyes grow blind
Having a need to belong
Unable to view the forest from the trees
Deception entwines reality with a fantasy
Losing ability to decipher reasons from a lie
A victim of emotions
That allows a heart to fantasize
Entangled by the web of hunger
He is not searching for a mate
Foolish fly you are just diner On the spider’s plate.

The Need To Belong

THE NEED TO BELONG

When you don't belong to anyone but yourself

Life can seem so cold without a tenderness

You choose not the fate of loneliness
... yet you find yourself alone

With a dream and the need to belong
Time fills its hours with such emptiness
Your face wears a frown
but, there is a place for happiness
With the hope of tomorrow
strength is gained to survive today
Though with every minute that passes
in your eyes are tears
you can not wipe away
When friends come to visit you pretend with a smile
Laughing and you joke
but you still feel alone
even in the crowd

Not belonging to anyone but yourself

Life can feel so cold without some tenderness

You choose not the fate of loneliness
yet, you find yourself alone

With a dream
and
"The Need To Belong."

Sometimes

"SOMETIMES" by Bratezg

Sometimes as we feel hurt
our hearts seem to explode
can not carry the burden
sometimes pain is a heavy load
Sometimes eyes become a dam
over filling from the rain
Sometimes we must cry out
find strength to out live shame
... Happiness we try to keep up
in fear we may fall earth bound
Sometimes in masquerade
smiles will hide a frown
Given time wounds shall heal
as we find another
and the need again to belong
Though stricken with grief
Sometimes we must forget
for life does go on.

A Woman

A WOMAN
by bratezg

Within a woman there may be at times feelings she does not understand and emotions she can't help but feel
There are times when she can not decider fantasy from what is real
Often thoughts she may hide for there is a need
to hold on to her pride
With ideas constantly expanding wide about they seem to turn
as if they were a tide
You may find in a woman dedication with great dete...rmination
She may show this giving no warning nor indication
Building up inside her are mental fears
Secretly you may find her bound in un-wishful tears
In her head are always bright and successful notions
that can't be kept still, for her mind is constantly in motion
In a woman there is this need to belong
a craving that may seem at times so unreal
For
She is only a woman and she has a need to love a man.

A Lover's Prayer

God; Grant me strength
to endure the battle called life
the will power to go on
If I fall short of myself
let me survive the feelings I own
the pain I may have felt
Be a guiding star
that I may not be led astray
be my memories
should I choose to forget our yesterdays
Help me to be what I am
A Woman
bestow upon me knowledge to understand
to respect my mate for what he is
A Man....

Lovers Can Become Strangers Again

Sometimes the distance in a room can seem like a mile,
making it impossible to cross over to the other side.
Between are hills and mountains one has lost strength to climb.
Strength was the past called yesterday,
left is a ladder of memories only leading astray.
In the corners of the room we sit, at each, we stare
not knowing what to say.
Questions grow as time passes,
Un-answered are the thoughts
How the circle keeps on turning,
Looking back on the life we once knew as friends,
The same love warming my heart now burns,
Even lovers can become strangers again...
