Joshua Manis Poems

lost amidst this sea of bliss
the rain sprinkles across these waves
took beyond happiness
into the ocean of distress
...

fallen past the ones who tripped
tripping deeper to abyss
who's past is this that takes my breath?
a bloodied Man, beaten and shamed
...

'You and I, We've become Spam.'
'No, more like chewed nails.'
'The 'click' we had
is silent.
...

So vivid is the picture,
you'd like us all to see.
Yet, still I stay blind
to your colorful disease.
...

Hung on a string
Like my God from a noose...
Around my neck
You call Him my fashion statement
...

Silent insecurities hold my tongue.
I desire to love you,
...

The Best Poem Of Joshua Manis

Bliss(Blisters)

lost amidst this sea of bliss
the rain sprinkles across these waves
took beyond happiness
into the ocean of distress
had we ever found such joy?
lost within our temperate sanctuary

running past distracted poetry
into the depths of this sea of bliss
blisters digging past my skin
cant you set me free?
free from the pain i harbor
freedom of a love unkept
freedom lost inside our 'bliss'
