Words are passion

Unread post

What's up everybody. My name is Jonathan Miles Berkland. My first book of poetry published is titled "Psychedelic Pens and a Hopeless Romantic". It is a book of poems that I hold dear and is available on Amazon. I just wrote this one tonight. I've written thousands but figured I'd share my most recent poem:

JDL
---------
Don't need a girl
Just need my sanity
I can live without
Drama and vanity
I can live without
Broke hearts and smeared mascara
Adam hands you the apple
Just eat it
I dare ya
See I come from both sides
Align with the tides
Jack The Ripper
Had grapes and bribes
But if you center yourself
Zazen some wealth
You just might convince me
To take the mic off the shelf

I feel like dancing
I feel like displaying my love
I feel like getting on the kit
I feel like believing in a God above
But the river isn't calm
And my disease is all too real
I need you to understand
Most importantly just feel
That my loyalty is strong
And I'll love you til the end
Ever looking for a lover
Ever looking for a friend
Understand that when I push you
Deep and far away
I do it for my healing
That's already underway
We reunite under the stars and clouds
Of this much I am sure
My love for you is endless
My spirit water pure

I had so much love for you
Why'd you have to go and die
I was bound to crawl
I was bound to fly
I was bound to praise the name
That left me all alone
You were in my circle
You were in my home
Maybe I didn't know the way
For you were in the lead
Now I'm left to my depression
And this god awful news feed

So take a hit for memories
Take a hit to numb the pain
See I have lost my faith
But you'd remind me Jesus is here to reign

The universe and its magnitude
Have hid you from my sight
Now I'm alone searching for
A beacon and a light
I wonder what it feels like
To drift away to outer realms
Send me signs and signals
For Christ is at the helm

We long to be worshipped
We long to make noise
Take hold of something
Susan play with your toys
Ryan once was a bastard
Now he fathers himself
Bleed out religion
Ramshackle wealth
They print out their money
I bleed on the page
Tell me of Freedom
Tell me of Rage

Now I stand before you
Naked and poised
Better than Jackson
Better than Freud
Beat out the demons
Who trample and molest
This isn't initiation
This isn't a test

The wars are still raging
I'll kill them in time
I wasn't the thorn
But my fathers the vine

I need her to feel
The beat of my heart
Our love is magnetic
Our love is art

One last reminder
She is forever mine
The wars are still raging
Yes I'll kill them in time
