Soon

A word so small, but connotation so large Soon Sending a thrill through me Soon A smile crosses my face as I think of it Soon

Unexpected Storm

Yearning for somewhere hidden and safe, Running from the world. Into the shadows of trees and wood, Desperately searching for the place. Around an oak I step with care Over silky green grass and soil that sits bare Through entangled vines I find my way Tranquil water fills my sight encircled and caged by land […]

Ugly In A Box

Four strong corners A perameter, Not to be breached A society, Scared of what’s different, They hide what they don’t want to see. But rebellion pops up, In the sun, they seem strange They crawl from their prison A jail, A box of shame. An ugly, That was locked away The pretty had hoped Forever, […]

Away Now, Away

Breaking under the tone She ra, left to be alone Away, from all she ever called home Sitting in solitude, chilled to the bone. Isolated here, Nobody, anywhere Completely still, raised skin bare Wishing simply for someone to care For lonely she sits, Scared. Tears stream as she cries Washing away, All of the lies […]

The Secret Ending

Keys fall under pressure And make permanent The story in his mind. Sitting, waiting at a desk motivated by inspiration, A slave to time. Never positive of the story’s final word, It remains, A surprise to him and you Full of secrets waiting to surface Only they, Reveal the truth. Related articles Secrets can be […]

A Darkness Neglected

I yearned for you when every cell was dark and grim I pleaded with every fiber that had lost all hope And, you came. I was ignited like the flames of the afternoon sun And every piece of me ached to be near you. Still, you had to go And sadly so soon. You inched […]

A World Behind A Painting

Spilling from a silver brace Colors enhance the dullness Begin to fill the empty space A puddle of sunshine covers the floor Green grass grows quickly Flows smoothly under the crack of the door The blue sky fell to a specific spot It is no longer above White splatters mix with the darker hue Beautiful […]

Bits of broken toy

Shadowed your intent Lies Valued every penny you spent Until your grand surprise the secrets you keep locked away It waits to seep until you no longer want them to stay you buy something nice happy to start you label the price and you say when it’s time to part when you’re finished with your […]

Beauty & Grace

Beauty, something each soul possesses when they’re born, some more than others, greater, vibrant They shine even when they’re down, those souls like angels, just hearing their voice can lift you up. You strive to be like them, open and caring a lover of life and love itself the sun seems like shade when they’re […]

Afraid of Heights

A deluge of tears stream down my face and all of a sudden, nothing matters. I’ve been hurt before, I’ll be battered again, this isn’t a new thing, it’s something I’m used to by others before, and now by you My heart doesn’t feel mutilated but can I even feel it anymore after so much […]

The End

A picture of sin All I’ve done, wrong I can’t hide It won’t take long One day the end- Will come for me And he will send Me to death or set me free. Afraid I’m not good enough I don’t call to your aid Under his judgmental sword his fiery blaze. Finally down on […]

YAY for May!

There are a couple of things that I just love about May… Most of them have to do with sitting out and reading, drinking coffee, basking in the sun and feeling the spring weather on my skin. Ahhh fabulous! And who knew zombies would be involved!? Can life get any better? I think not! The […]

Chains

You beg and plead for me to stay, “I can’t live without you.” you say. to make up, clinging so tightly I can’t even breathe, then you treat me as if I don’t exist, this push and pull, can you desist? Chain me up and keep me down why the hell do you even want […]

Pitter Patter

Sunshine is just a ray of words Unless you stand outside Rain is just a pitter patter Unless you have ever cried And if you have my friend You know how it feels to lose someone you love To understand never again will you feel their hugs To realize the pain inside Will never again […]

Torn

I’m torn torn between who I really am and who you want me to be, I mourn the loss of her, for so long I listened to you, baffling when we met you thought I was callous, strange, too vociferous for your liking I changed myself in so many ways, wanting you to love me […]

Ugly Feelings

Sometimes I can’t explain what my heart years to scream Seemingly happy then anger rises and steams I don’t know how to say I love you I don’t know how to tell you to go away I need to be alone but I want you to stay I wish I could make it clear I […]

Inspired Aspiration

It takes a remarkable person to inspire the mind You are unique and made of a special kind Determined to change the human race To create a better world, a happier place Consistently working to find so much more Searching for the hidden key to a locked and uncompromising door Your dreams are held on […]

Your control

When I thought of life is this what I imagined I wanted to be a doctor, a scientist, not stuck without a friend my goals were so farfetched maybe they would have never come but at least more than this, a reason to live, some thing to keep me going, maybe someone. Day in and […]

A modern man

Full post here: A Modern Man But I just HAD to share the highlights. Amazing, insightful, take my breath away blog. YUM! It’s the love where I can’t sleep through the night, because I keep waking yourself up to make sure she’s still there and that I weren’t really dreaming… because it feels like a […]

Nobody’s tomorrow is guaranteed

Tomorrow is promised to no one I once heard someone say do I change my life, regret the choices that I’ve made? I wake wondering what I’m doing and who I’m doing it for because I have no idea what is going on depression descends like a tsunami choking, threatening my life but swimming isn’t […]
