So You've Got Ideas Now, Eh?
So, here's the deal. Integrating the old with the new (website with love of poetry), I've decided to start a bit of a contest right here.
     I have some words and phrases that should invoke images or ideas in your mind. Whether you create a painting or poem, it doesn't matter. Just please submit it!

      Not that creative? You can still share in the fun by
adding your own words or phrases to the bunch. Who knows - maybe your simple words will inspire an artistic master piece!

Not knowing which one of you is before my eyes
~Johanna
Looking into a lovers eyes and knowing that it is over
Feeling lost, even though you know where you are
Letting go of someone you love like no other person
Trying to figure out what part of you is keeping you from finding happiness
Crying about nothing in particular, but everything at once
Trying to think of words to stop him from leaving
Wishing tomorrow would wait a few hours longer
Wondering why you even bother existing any more
The thought of her on the other end of the phone
Hearing a woman scream in the dark of the night
Tangled up in blue
Taking the winding road home
Tight fit
Trembling voices
Wink of acceptance
Wanting to drown to escape your sorrows
You through the eyes of another
Running into a parked car
Knowing good bye is forever
Sour hearts and lonely tears
Biting you tongue
Actually believing you’re beautiful
Knowing you’re a step behind
Waking up from a horrific nightmare
Pure, focused rage
Wanting desperately to stop loving her.
If only you could teach yourself to live again.
Wanting to believe in the lie.
Frozen blank
Tossing and turning all night
Enjoying a waterfall, from underneath
Burning tears flowing down your face
Absolute love
Absolute hate
Wishing you were standing there too
Realizing you’re worthless
Running away from a ghost
Seeing the fires rage on
Sound of explosions far off
Sounds of music far away
Feeling unworthy of ultimate salvation
Opening the doors of perception
Taking a shower on ecstasy
Seeing empty scenery, to an infinity of detail.
Finding the mate to your soul.
Finding the soul to your mate.
Seeing someone hit by a car
The peace and calm from not thinking at all
Wanting to leave, but not being able to
Life
Limbo in your mind
A big spot, sucking all your energy towards it
Harden your heart and shave your legs
Injecting Peace of mind.
Looking for your soul
Forget it
Someone just called you "good-looking."
Building something to destroy it.
