Just words

Ghosts, demons, lovers and lonely corridors

A Poem by Coyote Poetry

Just thoughts upon life.

                        Ghosts, demons, lovers and lonely corridors

The solemn days leave us with faces of ghosts, demons and angels. The lonely corridors make us wish for less harsh words and less goodbyes. Once friendly faces gone from our life. Make us wish we had expanded the good days, the laughter and the celebration of friendship.

I have learned. You can’t return to where you had begun. The past is a dead-end road to teach us to be kinder and to had loved more.

Pretty woman, laughter of children and the long slow dances are missed. We can be blinded by mistakes and hate. I tell the kids. We all have many ghosts and demons. We will make many mistakes, say too many words and leave sweet lovers in lonely beds never to return.

The corridors of life are fair.  Good and bad decision can lead us to good or bad place?

In sweet dreams we could save the world and  knew the tenderness of love that last forever. We could have never spoke negative words. We could have found the utopia of a peaceful heart and mind.

I know rarely do we know a perfect world. Sometime better to make the good days last forever and forget the bad days and move on.  An honored life is  enjoying the new day a-coming and a lot of laughter and tears.

Coming across this work later than other commentators. Still an amazing mind opening piece. Really tries for the bullseye of sensation which we all live.
You have developed an amazing mind to bring this forth and strong sensitivity and excellent composition to deliver such a message. You really packaged it very well. It leaves me without enough accolades to honor such an occasion.

Thank you for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

Kinda moving but yet such a longing. I could also feel some sadness in this. Awesome writing here. I enjoyed this.

Thank you for reading and the kind words. I do appreciate.

The thoughts in this piece are so true. The line that states leaving pretty lovers in beds never to return bring the thought home. We have all left lovers in their beds never to return for we have moved forward in time

[Coyote Poetry]

You are right dear friend. We change also. Thank you for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

John, if I may call you that, this is another jewel of wisdom. This line "Good and bad decision can lead us to good or bad place?: so very true. Good does not always lead to good places, nor bad always lead to bad, it is truly in our hands to wake up in the morning and live, love, laugh as much as possible. Just my humble opinion. Leaving this line as a question is a stroke of wise brilliance. Always enjoy your poems, cheers!

[Coyote Poetry]

I agree. We decide our day. Better to begin hopeful and glad for opportunity to celebrate the new day. Thank you Karen for reading and the comment.

Coyote, you nailed it! Your poem speaks to millions, young and old, rich and poor, well and ill, all continents. My favorite sentence is "The corridors of life are fair." It expresses your humility and acceptance of life as it is. As you rightly say, good and bad decisions can lead us to a good or bad place. Still, you don't question fate or destiny. You achieved a perfect balance between life's often harsh realities and hope. Nice work again!
