WEEDING

By Charles Robert Lindholm

The seeds of love he planted

grew deeply in my heart

He wrapped his love

around my world

in a romantic

work of art 

THANK YOU FOR LEAVING ME (REFLECTIONS ON THE TRUTH)

By Charles Robert Lindholm  

 I wish I would

stay angry

the way they say

I should

But I’ve learned

that letting go

makes me feel so good

And the question drops…

Picture courtesy: Internet. If you own this, kindly let me know. I am willing to give you credit by adding name or link. Also, willing to take it down.

An empty seat awaits your presence and when you occupy it, I will be rowing you silently through an ancient route. You sit there on the other end of the boat and look around. As you will find me absorbed in rowing you choose not to ask me that one question and you keep it for later. Then when you gaze the grasslands and the infinite sky a shimmering golden breeze kisses your face and you feel strange. For you know this breeze and this recollection will make you feel like you know every pixel of what you see and you know every grain of your feeling.  Like you know everything about everything here for ages. Like something is speaking to you and waiting for you to break your silence. Yet, your silence is your only language, your only means to express. You look at me and I raise my head. In the moment, something in us knows that a word will be too much. Your question drops. And, a wordless journey on an ancient route goes on..

Of this world…

A face lay there in eternal sleep,
No smile.
No frown.
I wonder,
“After all, smiles and frowns are of this world”.

HER RESOLUTION

By Charles Robert Lindholm

It was the end
of a brutal week
and tonight was
New Year’s Eve

The Wintery weather
was whipping snow
and sleet around
everywhere

HE DUPED YOU

Made Me Believe,
I Thought You Were
My Hero
I Thought You Were
My One And Only

HE DUPED YOU

THE EYE OF THE HURRICANE

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I Lived With A Woman
Who Was Passionate
And Wildly Exciting
And It Was Thrilling

THE SHADOW OF US

By Charles Robert Lindholm

The Light Of My Life
Has Left Me
Running Away
To The West

HE BETRAYED HER HEART

By Charles Robert Lindholm

Sitting Alone At The Bar
Nursing A Whiskey
In The Middle Of The Afternoon
With A Far Away Look In His Eyes

I Sat Down Next To Him
And Asked The Barkeep For A Beer
To Quench The Thirst
Of A Humid Summer Day

SOMETHING BETTER

By Charles Robert Lindholm

She Spent So Many Years
Wishing And Dreaming Of
Something Better
Than What She Thought
She Had

She Had A Restless Heart
That Always Hungered
For More,

SOMETIMES THERE IS NO FOREVER

By Charles Robert Lindholm

Sometimes Things
Aren’t Meant To Last Forever
And We Are Just Supposed
To Love The Moments,
Save The Memories,

PRODIGAL LOVER

By Charles Robert Lindholm

She Sailed
Into The Sunset
Never Looking Back
Or Waving

Without A Care
Or Second Thought
She Left Me
For Anywhere But Here

DEVIL OR ANGEL?

By Charles Robert Lindholm

Devil Or Angel

She Can Be Either To Me

LOOKING AT YOUR LIFE – (WITH THE BEST BREAKUP PHOTO EVER)

By Charles Robert Lindholm

Breaking Up Is Never Easy
Usually Messy
Leaves A Stain On Your Heart
And Is Often Extremely Painful

IT’S STILL A MYSTERY

By Charles Robert Lindholm

It’s Still A Mystery
To Me
And Yet
It Seemed Real

SOMETHING BETTER

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I Wanted Life
The Way It Was
In The Life
I Once Had
With You
