Shannon Wade Poems

I entertained the heart of possibilities
I danced in the arms of hope
I kissed the lips of desire
I stood firm against repeated mistakes
...

An Ode to Mother
From the womb I have descended in brilliance
Your teachings are engraved in my soul and crowned by my heart
The knowledge gained from your wisdom will guide me along life’s road
...

The greatest of these is love
It is able to kindle the bitterness captured within the soul
Easing the pain within ones heart
It is the warm hug shared between a mother and her child
...

Acknowledging the Present

Often times we do not realize just how valuable time really is
We take it for granted
...

Chosen Vessel
...

Why misery loves company
She sits and she waits
Waits for any opportunity to make her presence known
With no hesitation
...

The pieces to the puzzle
Sometime I am too exhausted to even fix my eyes to the pieces that lie in front of me
I see so called friends yet they’re not worthy of my company
Circumstances stare in my face sensing my nervousness
...

Blind folds
For as long as I can remember
Writing has always been my sure defense
Through these words I am able to reveal a sense of confidence
...

I mixed up the concept of love for what seems like centuries
For what now seems like hopeless memories
I am now greeted by tauting ephipanies
Piercing my soul like daggers
...

Nothing is hidden
Like little children
We play hide and seek
But what can they possible hide from?
...
