In This Age
In this age, time stands still
In this age, love is land
In this age, hopes are wind
In this age, we are one

In this age, laughter is life
In this age, sadness is death
In this age, wonder is eternity
In this age, we are one

In this age, your beauty is the stars
In this age, your mind is the sun
In this age, your spirit is the moon
In this age, we are one

Another Headache – Poem by Justin Germino

Dark Poems

05 Sep 2010

Just another one of my poems inspired by a recent migraine. This one I actually wrote while suffering a migraine and somehow I still managed to make it rhyme without hurting my head worse.

Another Headache

Consuming pills the only way
to control the suffering today

My mind numb, my skull one great ache
as throbbing veins in my head quake

Silence noises and dim the lights
suffering days and sleepless nights

This curse denying all life’s passion
end this pain with one quick fashion

No doctor, wizard or holy man here
can make this agony just disappear

So I lie here in pain and awake
suffering yet another headache

I was doing some article ratings on Helium and was rating a poem about "Bowing" and was immediately inspired to create this piece which I added to the contest and decided to republish here.

Bow to Nobody

Flesh of man is not this week
allegiance owed to no one
my fealty earned, not owed
your precious medals mean nothing

Scores have come before you here
my sentiments always the same
bow a courtesy you don’t deserve
except at the site of your grave

Lover’s in a Tree

When I spot two lovers in a tree
It brings fond memories of you and of me
experiences abound that only we can see
watching the evening sun and drinking iced tea

When I spot two lovers in a park
warmly holding hands while the dogs run and bark
a quick kiss erupts fueling a bright new spark
as you finish your story to which I hark

When I spot two lovers in a bed
lying together with the only color being red
fruits of passion, each other being fed
the most tender of moments, enough has been said

When I spot two lovers in a tree
I realize those lovers are you and me.
