Short Poems About Moving On
#MovingOn
Short poems about moving on. 30 words or less, most recently published poems first.
Thirty two
I feel you slowly
erasing from
every line
almost as
if you're living
half dead &
half alive,
all I wonder
about lately
is whether
or not you
half cried,
perhaps
my only sin
is knowing
my feet
carry
on.

In the end you were
an extravagant liqueur
not one I’d prefer

Day after day, night after night
One shot
One fix
One more
Just in case
Sleep deprived
Counting time
Remembering
That bitter taste
What you want
What you need
You stop
And count in haste
A pre-spent life
Of pain and fear
Too real to go
To waste
One fix
One more
Just in case
Sleep deprived
Counting time
Remembering
That bitter taste
What you want
What you need
You stop
And count in haste
A pre-spent life
Of pain and fear
Too real to go
To waste

We're Not Friends
at least I don't need to pretend
to like your shitty poetry anymore
it was really quite taxing

Bootiful!
The soul
Of an old boot
Withered, and worn
And forlorn
Nothing afoot
Lacy, lazy, laces
Heels, never healed
Old trodden paths
Puddled footprints
A blistered entity
Tick tock
Not Tiktok

Drowning in the alcohol that they consume
He made letting go seem easy.
He doesn't even miss me.
I blame it on the whiskey.
Pictures are deceiving.
One day when he has a sober thought he'll be grieving.
He doesn't even miss me.
I blame it on the whiskey.
Pictures are deceiving.
One day when he has a sober thought he'll be grieving.

Killing the Church
This status quo
of static woe
leaves us stunted and slow
no strength or glow
Let’s start, let’s go
strike down that foe
stretch and grow
into ecstatic flow
but first…
it’s time to let go

Promised
The rains are here
Just like you promised
Shall I cry with them
Or remember
At least in this, you were honest

The Time Thief (x3 Senryu Acrostic)
The timeless time thief
Infinite, and eternal
Magical moments
Ethereal clock
Tentatively tick-tocking
Hastening ageing
In time, seconds count
Every hour, of every day
Forgotten, timeless
