Lifeless Library

Lifeless Library

By Lord R.e. Taylor

What did The Fates do

A temple for knowledge

Destroyed in moments

So many pages no one will read

Every book left there to rot

They were all pure treasures

It doesn't matter who wrote them

How old or how rare they were

No book should face such a death

Maybe someday some person will care

All the lost books will be restored

They will have the chance to live again

 And a new generation will love them

Hopefully better than we did

Hey Reaper

Hey Reaper

By Lord R.e. Taylor

Hey Reaper

I hoped you would come

You can try to take me

It won’t be easy

That’s my promise

The End Of Poetry

The End Of Poetry

By Lord R.e. Taylor

Someday

No one knows when

A pen will be set aside

And the last word of poetry

Will be written with a tear falling onto it

Lovers will no longer find each other

Sadness will go on unspoken

And songs will no longer be sung

Poetry will be taken for granted

Eventually forgotten to time

When that finally happens

Humanity will get the end it deserves

Experience Creation

Experience Creation

By Lord R.e. Taylor

Every creation tells a story

Sometimes an escape from pain

Other times it tells a story

Maybe not good, maybe not bad

To someone it was important

So, don't treat it too badly

You may not know the laughter or tears

If you are lucky, someday, maybe you will

Blessings Of The Dark

Blessings Of The Dark

By Lord R.e. Taylor

The Sun bleeds as it sets

Losing it in a battle to stay

To stop the night from coming

But the dark always comes

Bringing a new kind of life

Where dreams combine with passions

Waves of sensual winds blow

Lowering inhibitions to nearly nothing

And pleasure becomes the norm

So never mourn when the Sun bleeds

Instead, look forward to the night

And everything it has to offer you

It may just make your life

Cooling the world below

Please Lady Pandora

Please Lady Pandora

By Lord R.e.Taylor

Beautiful Lady Pandora

I know we have not been perfect

And we do not deserve your grace

But we have survived so much

Going to hell and back

Year after year

Over and over again

Despite everything we survived

The one thing we needed was hope

The hope you saved for us

So please Lady Pandora

Keep hope safe for a little longer

We need it now to save our lives

I Hope I Am Bodmin

I Hope I Am Bodmin

By Lord R.e. Taylor

I do not know for sure

But people are talking

Saying things I do not understand

I do write strange things

Seeing things no one else sees

Listening to the voices in my head

They usually have good ideas

So, maybe I am a bit bodmin

At least I hope I am

After all, I would hate to be normal

That Damn Crack

By Lord R.e. Taylor

Hitting the ground more than hard

Blood covering my leg

I really wish I could walk

Bad Thoughts

Bad Thoughts

By Lord R.e Taylor

Every night he thinks

Thought no one should have

How easy it would be

Just forget about everything

Do not care about anybody

And just put an end to the thoughts

He knows how to do it

How to put a stop to it all

Something stops him every time

But one day that something won’t be there

And in just a few minutes it will all be over

Sadly, he will be gone forever

But, at least, the thoughts will have stopped

Marisa’s Secret Garden

Marisa’s Secret Garden

By Lord R.e. Taylor

I cannot believe it

You have a secret

One that you never share

A magical little world

No people or animals

Only the creatures you allow

Mainly fairies and pixies

Magical beings which cause no harm

You give them a home

Where they can be free

And happy knowing your love

Thank you Marisa Bertolottii Agnes

for the beautiful picture

The Invisible Man

The Invisible Man

By Lord R.e. Taylor

He thinks he is real

But he could not know

He speaks and no one listens

No one sees what he does

He is just outside reality

Loneliness is the only life he knows

So, he just wastes away

Unknown, unseen, and unmourned

Cicada Song

Cicada Song

By Lord R.e. Taylor

To most people it is just noise

Loud and never ending

Bad enough to explode your head

But to many, many others

It is a song sung by a million

Wave after wave of beautiful music

Echoing through the forest

The song of the cicada

One of nature's truest love songs

Something to enjoy as time passes

Life Will Always Be

Life Will Always Be

By Lord R.e. Taylor

Everything is gone

Burnt to ashes

No trace of what was

Not even a single memory

But there is hope

There is always hope

Life will not allow our demise

Life will fight for us all

It always has and always will

Even just a single flower

Fighting to reach up to the sun

That is life showing us all

Life will always be here

Sadistic Time

Sadistic Time

By Lord R.e. Taylor

Time can be too fast

It can creep along

Slower than a snail's pace

There is nothing we can do

It was all designed with one purpose

We were meant to suffer

Yell and loudly complain

Sometimes even shed tears

But somewhere and somewhere

Someone is laughing as they watch us

Sadistic beings in the heavens

The Blessing Of Sunrise

The Blessing Of Sunrise

By Lord R.e. Taylor

Night after night

Hour after hour

I lay awake in the dark

Watching imaginary creatures

Listening to silence surround me

Waiting for the Sun to rise in the east

Waking the sounds of the local birds

And the laughter of the kids rushing to school

But most of all it gives me permission

To finally fall asleep and maybe dream

A bright light he carries

Unlike so many he cares about others

Sharing hope anywhere it’s needed

Changing For The Worst

Changing For The Worst

By Lord R.e. Taylor

When did the world get so bad

Kids are no longer allowed to get dirty

They cannot get hurt

Or catch childhood diseases

Winning and losing does not happen

And it all occurred in one generation

We all, every one of us grew up

Getting dirty, hurt, and sick

We knew how it felt to win

And how we felt when were the lovers

The thing was, we grew up strong

We grew up knowing what life had for us

All because we all had parents who knew kids

What we were and what we could handle

And we loved them for it

Darkening Memories

Darkening Memories

By Lord R.e. Taylor

Every memory I ever had

Has become dark

Almost black but not quite

I know so many are lost

Some I treasured more than life

Some I never truly cared about

They may never come back

Lost to the never and the forever

They never did anything for me

Just causing sadness and regret

So, I know I will not miss them

I just hope they are happy wherever they are

Child Of The Universe

Child Of The Universe

By Lord R.e. Taylor

No one knows of you

You are the child of the universe

Born to save all of reality

Innocence surrounds you

The ultimate blessing

Still, you are a true warrior

Ready to fight for everything good

And compassionate enough for those who need you

So, when you grow please never change

Stay just as you are

And everything will be perfect

Because you are here

You Wait Alone

You Wait Alone

By Lord R.e. Taylor

How long have you been alone

At one time you must have been loved

A family shared their lives with you

Then one Christmas Season it changed

Something happened you never expected

They suddenly just up and left

You were sad but you never cried

But the never came back to you

You waited and you are still waiting

You just hope to be loved again

Just like the rest of us

Still, I know that you are in it

There is just a positive feeling

That feeling is all around everything

It is you who makes the universe

And you who makes life livable

For everyone and everything

Dream Girl

Dream Girl

By Lord R.e. Taylor

I knew you long before we met

So many times, you came to me

Living deep within my dreams

We spent days relaxing in the sun

So many hours kissing

And many, many more making love

Do you truly exist

I may never know

But, as long as I dream

You will be there, and I will love you
