I have dabbled with poetry in the past and have decided to share my thoughts with Tumblr.

Anything else you want to know?? Just ask.

Feel free to ask anything. Nothing is taboo.

Keep writing, your poetry is inspiring.</description><title>Gracious Words.</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @graciouswords)</generator><link>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/</link><item><title>Need some loving?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;If I were to write a love poem, just for you; what 5 words would you like to see within the body of the work?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23950408506</link><guid>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23950408506</guid><pubDate>Mon, 28 May 2012 21:52:42 +0100</pubDate></item><item><title>Upon the sterile canvas, white,heartfelt letters crimson red;forming words you long to hearthat...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;Upon the sterile canvas, white,&lt;br/&gt;heartfelt letters crimson red;&lt;br/&gt;forming words you long to hear&lt;br/&gt;that until now, were left unsaid.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Yet not because I do not want&lt;br/&gt;nor care to share emotions true;&lt;br/&gt;of this I wish and nothing else&lt;br/&gt;but can&amp;#8217;t, because of &lt;em&gt;you&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For every time our eyes do meet&lt;br/&gt;of words I&amp;#8217;ve none, I am bereft;&lt;br/&gt;when skin meets skin in warm embrace&lt;br/&gt;I offer you my every breath.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So in this verse I do confess&lt;br/&gt;without you I would cease to be&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I live to love you every day&lt;br/&gt;from now until eternity.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23942101712</link><guid>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23942101712</guid><pubDate>Mon, 28 May 2012 19:38:00 +0100</pubDate><category>poetry</category><category>spilled ink</category><category>love</category><category>poem</category><category>oldie</category><category>new stuff coming soon</category></item><item><title>The thought of you with him

&lt;p&gt;kills me but I force myself to live&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;the dream.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My eyes become his fingers,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;watching your body react&lt;small&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;　&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;to his touch, arching back, groaning&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;perspiring, lungs gasping for air&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;as you scream his fucking name&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I live this dream day after day,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;night after sleepless night;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;torturing my soul and fuelling the rage&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;that burns in the pit of my stomach&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I know that it&amp;#8217;s wrong, I know I should&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;move on but I can’t, I just can&amp;#8217;t and&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I won&amp;#8217;t and I&amp;#8217;m scared; scared that&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;if I lose this memory&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I will have lost you forever.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23887279825</link><guid>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23887279825</guid><pubDate>Sun, 27 May 2012 22:42:00 +0100</pubDate><category>poetry</category><category>spilled ink</category><category>love</category><category>free verse</category></item><item><title> trixclibrarian answered your question: Why Apologise?

&lt;blockquote&gt;maybe? sincere apologies say something more than “i wasn’t thinking clearly” something scarier, perhaps, more honest? with hope for change?&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is what I&amp;#8217;m talking about. The action itself was born of an informed decision; meaning, at the time it was the right thing to do. Even knowing the worst case the decision was made in favour of risking it all.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I know we all deserve a second chance but if you can&amp;#8217;t understand the reasoning behind the decision or agree with the reasoning, could you really bring yourself to forgiving or trusting that person again?&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23883028296</link><guid>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23883028296</guid><pubDate>Sun, 27 May 2012 21:34:17 +0100</pubDate><category>trixclibrarian</category></item><item><title>graciouswords:

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cast onto the breeze your inhibitions&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Let them dance amongst the clouds&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Set them free, as they have you and let your body live&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Close you eyes and fear not &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For we now embark on a journey&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Each gentle movement leaving mind and body swollen&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hearts beating faster leaving lungs wanting&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lips meet, breathing new life, love&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fuelling the fire engulfing us, protecting us&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Healing hands caress, erasing past scars&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Creating waves of raw emotion&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Clouding our minds&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The “Gates of Life” open, enticing, alluring with radiant heat and the sweetest aroma.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bodies merge, twisting, turning, contorting&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Beads of sweat soothing skin&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pounding our own rhythmical beat&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Slow moans transform to shrieks &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Eyes roll violently, colours flash&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nails dig deeply, tearing flesh&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Toes curl, muscles tighten&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Two kindred energies collide simultaneously&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Free of mortal shackles&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Consumed by all that we offer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The glorious wonder of spiritual metamorphosis &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;One heart, one body, one soul&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;New life&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description><link>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23785415790</link><guid>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23785415790</guid><pubDate>Sat, 26 May 2012 08:16:51 +0100</pubDate><category>poetry</category><category>spilled ink</category><category>free verse</category><category>poem</category><category>oldie</category></item><item><title>Will you really?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/5824471218/will-you-really"&gt;graciouswords&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“&lt;em&gt;I love you and always will”&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Her parting words as she left my life in tatters. I’ve always considered loving someone to be a pleasurable experience. The giving of emotion in its true form. The wide eyes and butterflies. Feeling wanted. Feeling like existence does have a greater meaning. Colours are more vibrant, the sun is always shining. Everything she did, she did for me. In a strange way, I’m comforted by the thought of always being in the heart of someone else. The question I often ask myself though is how many more hearts will she consume before mine no longer beats?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I really should write more but I&lt;br/&gt;can’t bring myself to make noise&lt;br/&gt;when there’s nothing to be said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sometimes silence can carry more&lt;br/&gt;weight than any written word but&lt;br/&gt;silence only leaves me feeling lonely&lt;br/&gt;and forgettable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I refuse to concede to acceptance&lt;br/&gt;or not for that matter; I could never &lt;br/&gt;see myself as the &lt;strike&gt;cocky&lt;/strike&gt; arrogant outspoken&lt;br/&gt;attention seeker but I truly understand&lt;br/&gt;why they choose to be that person&lt;br/&gt;(it is a choice!) but not mine;&lt;br/&gt;humility prevents it. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I really should write more but &lt;br/&gt;words will never fill the void. &lt;/p&gt;

and I smiled.”</description><link>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23682248345</link><guid>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23682248345</guid><pubDate>Thu, 24 May 2012 19:56:00 +0100</pubDate><category>poetry</category><category>spilled ink</category><category>love</category><category>free verse</category><category>poem</category></item><item><title>I really should write more but Ican&amp;#8217;t bring myself to make noisewhen there&amp;#8217;s nothing to...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I really should write more but I&lt;br/&gt;can&amp;#8217;t bring myself to make noise&lt;br/&gt;when there&amp;#8217;s nothing to be said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sometimes silence can carry more&lt;br/&gt;weight than any written word but&lt;br/&gt;silence only leaves me feeling lonely&lt;br/&gt;and forgettable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I refuse to concede to acceptance&lt;br/&gt;or not for that matter; I could never &lt;br/&gt;see myself as the &lt;strike&gt;cocky&lt;/strike&gt; arrogant outspoken&lt;br/&gt;attention seeker but I truly understand&lt;br/&gt;why they choose to be that person&lt;br/&gt;(it is a choice!) but not mine;&lt;br/&gt;humility prevents it. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I really should write more but &lt;br/&gt;words will never fill the void. &lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23675279587</link><guid>http://graciouswords.tumblr.com/post/23675279587</guid><pubDate>Thu, 24 May 2012 17:12:00 +0100</pubDate></item><item><title>graciouswords:

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In my absence, remember me,&lt;br/&gt;if not my name, my poetry&lt;br/&gt;each loving verse of warming hues&lt;br/&gt;for your eyes only, just for you.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Words from mine onto your own&lt;br/&gt;souls entwined, our love has grown&lt;br/&gt;upon the page, within our eyes&lt;br/&gt;feelings we just can’t deny.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Each stanza penned, a message shared&lt;br/&gt;to make you feel, to show I care.&lt;small&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;　&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
