My fingers glide along the weathered marble fountain I can feel the drops of water kissing my skin My eyes peer up as the sun rises over the mountain I breathe in the warm wind; cleansing me from within I reach into my pocket and pull out a copper cent Reminiscent of when it shouted my name from the cement I take a moment to watch it glisten Now it’s the penny’s turn to listen “I wish to be a rose plucked from obscurity I...

Unexpected Friendship

A reflection on a newly made friendship.

I wish you were made of starlight. Or found with fireflies. I wish you were right And my mind wouldn’t lie. I can do a fair amount of CBT To rework the script in my head But it will still treat me unfairly While I lay in bed. On days you drown yourself in doubt And call on me to deconstruct your brain And we hang out for hours talking about How our brains like to accept the blame Those are the night the lies are soft and...

The Lost Wish

Be careful what you wish for...

The caravan made it to the last oasis before finally getting home.The trip by all accounts had been successful. After the camels had been bedded down and the men had finished their evening meal of mutton and couscous, they began to talk of finally making it home and what they expected from their homecomings.The graphic details were too much for the old man. He had lost his wife and sole mate last year and he had no stomac...

If I Had Free Reign Of Your Credit Card

This is what I'd do if you left me your credit card.

I'd love to go on vacation I want to see Hawaii please To celebrate many celebrations To feel a nice warm breeze I'd love to see Koko Head Crater And enjoy a peaceful sunset Swim in a secluded beach later It would be beautiful I bet A trip to swim with the dolphins I'd really like to do that That would jolt my endorphin's They'd be pretty to look at A cruise to watch a whale watch Would really be divine You could have a s...

It was a mistake she tries to sayShe tries to hide her face awayShrinking and cowering so afraidCrying and pleading, attempts to dissuadeBut a boot does not hear as it swiftly kicksJustice is dealt with large hard fistsHands grow heavy as punishment is doneLittle spirit broken fight is goneWatching her crumble satisfiedWith one last jab, he turns aside Alone in the dark, she sobs in silenceWhispers she's sorry full of rep...

Wishes are being made everyday Wishing for happiness Wishing for hope Wishing for the wellness of some loved one Running ideas through my head For the perfect wish I wish for this, I wish for that The same wish I wished last year The year is new and the time has come to wish for something brand new Making my wish, keeping it a secret When it comes true I will share to the world Until then it is now my secret wish

You Wish This, Too

Everyone wishes fairy tails were real.

I wish this world were real. I wish it wasn't just in a book.Why do you wish that?So I could go there. I'm tired of being stuck in reality.Don't you feel safe here?Of course I do. I think that's the problem.Ah. The thirst for adventure.Exactly.Well then. Let's get started.

It's been so many years, a few joys and more tears So much I want to say, if I could find a way I'm still the boy inside, giving you that first ride The one lost in your eyes, holding you through your cries You left me so empty, and nothing can fill me So long chasing traces, wish I could trade places If I would have been more, I could have helped you soar But I only failed you, and pills became your adieu My body has gro...

I feel something smothering me, a dark shadow. Maid, chef, medic aid, nothing more. Useless, boring, pathetic, is what you see. See me for who I am, not what I seem to be. Mother I am no doubt, but person still I be. I feel, I grow, I'm something special, If only you look and see.

A wish to be with you this holiday, A sleigh ride in the crisp air.Sweet kisses in this magical sleigh,The wind blowing at our hair.Warm cocoa shared it's very hot,To be with you and hold you tight.The warmth of the drink hits the spot,I love being with you tonight.We walk along the town square,Looking at holiday windows.Children squeezing their teddy bears,The temperature is cold and feels like zero.On an awning lies a b...

I wish you a lifetime of happiness Love that grows each day A song in your heart Laughter upon your face Stars in your eyes A smile upon your lips A lifetime of warmth from family and friends Days that are gentle Nights filled with making love I wish you a world filled with joy Constant faith and hope Good days ahead With dancing to come With nothing to dread No illness or sickness No broken bones or scars Never a tear in...

I wish I wish That is all I can do I wish I wish In my dreams they come true I wish I wish But the truth is We may never meet again I wish I wish That is all I can do One day someone would be lucky to have you I wish I wish That someday that person would be me
