Drowning deep within one’s self Echos of fears and memories past Pressures of self doubt Resurfacing from time to time Eroding what’s left of one’s self confidence Seeking, searching for something Some answers that may help end the insecurity Intoxication or drugs seem to be the key Only masking the truth behind the pain Needing to find the individual cure.

Endless screams, so sweet music. I corner her and see her shake in fear. What a beautiful scene. Her tears give me a rush. No I can’t… yes I warp my hands around her fragile neck and push her under water. Her eyes widen and start to kick her legs under me. Laughter left my mouth. This was the best part of my games. She is dead… I pull her out by her hair and drag my beautiful doll to my “dollhouse” I sat her in a corner a...

I struggle and search for just the right word, So many fall short and mean less than intended. A magical collection of letters written or heard, Given from the heart and never rescinded. I wasted so much time thinking more is better, Yet simplicity can be such a powerful presence. In my mind I build it letter by letter, To make sure I capture every ounce of its essence. Love is over-used and everyone says it, And want is...

My lover comes to meAll my senses awareShe is the only oneNo other can compareThe sight of her warms meA soft glow upon her faceHer eyes wistful and calmThis vision that I embrace.Her aroma fills meThe sweet smell of her hair Wafting of her perfumeSmell of love in the air.The sense of tender skinSoothing by lovers touchThe feeling of soft silkAlabaster smooth as such.The sound of her voiceSings music to my earsHushed moan...

I know a ole bear Furious and proud Protective of what he deems his Pushes and pulls and shares your dreams Delightful in his great rumbling growl His wit and humor know no bounds Careful when trespassing on his hunting grounds He knows how to rend with the power of the pen With rhythm and rhyme his wisdom dances across the page I count my lucky stars to be his friend If you ask for his criticism heed his advice His guidi...

Have you ever been so scared That all logic and rational thinking Just goes out the window. You feel the best and only way to protect and keep those you love the most safe, Is to push them away and keep them at a distance No matter how hurt and lonely That it makes you feel. I know this might sound crazy at a time you need people the most To choose to distance yourself But all you want for those you love Is for them to be...

I wish I were born in simpler timesWhen marriage was forever A time when people fixed what was brokenInstead of throwing it awayWe live in a worldOf instant gratificationFollowing desires and wantsLosing loyalty and faith We live in a world Where it takes multiple peopleTo satisfy our needsAnd your marriage is the last thing you focus onWork, kids, freedomBills, friends, All more importantI am a hopeless romanticI believe...

Mystic hazy dawn sounds softly floating around, Awakening enchanting love, her soul is unbound, Winding pathways guiding her upon holly ground, On a quest for her soul mate, yet to be found, For she won’t be left alone on her journey profound.

The grass is always greener on the other side,  Which one is better, you must decide. When you are alone, you wish to meet someone,  And if you’re married, sometimes you wish you could run. Decisions, decisions that need to be made,  Either side you can feel lost and betrayed. Being alone you can do whatever,  Going on many exciting endeavors. When you’re married, the family always needs,  Sometimes feels like a freaking...

Dark sky, troubled heart trapped by clouds,Sapphire waves, uncovered mind trapped in the sounds,Oh Holy man, enlighten me, guide me to my call,Eyes shut, embrace my heart, light up my Soul,Who is the hero who will not fall?

Quiescent, black pieces lay, Beneath mounded ashes grey.Awaiting breezes to play,Once more they will allay. Underlying emotions, the embers,Heat of the flame, one remembers.Coals left, outlast flaming timbers. Never hardening hearts or tempers. Cinders never completely expire.Neither does love's burning desire.Spirit of soul, need only conspire.Accepting life, one must acquire.Takes but a whisper to reignite,Embers to fla...

DoorTake a chanceOpen the doorYou may be amazedFor love is in the airOn this day of loversThis Valentine Day

You filled my ears with lies You played such a gameIt shouldn't have been a surprise  I am to blame I fell for it  Hook line and sinker  Believed it all  What was I thinking You became my best friendAnd then I loved you soHours and hours spend togetherI couldn't let you go Words meant just for me They were all untrueRepeated to every other girlI wasn't special to you You told me you loved me And we'd always be together An...

Looking back over my life I have always been shy and felt very alone.Learning very early on, that not every person is kind or caring.However the day we started talking That slowly begun to change.We spoke to each other regularly about anything and everything, Sharing stories and experiences . You were interested in what I had to say. And you really seemed to care.Slowly I lowered my guard and started telling you about thi...

She's like a mirage  A beautiful paradise Full of grace and beauty And a heart so wise I loved him And he loved meBut it wasn't enoughNot meant to be With my soul mate Is my place in lifeThe light of my soulIm proud to be his wife When I walked awayTo never speak again What better to know She will take care of him So I placed his hand in hers And kissed that life goodbye Knowing my place to be And in each other they will...
