-Regret-
Burnt from the sun,
toasted and crisp
Still recall the
taste of your lips
A mellow sweetness,
love in wait
I tried to save you,
way too late
I drowned and nearly
died back then
Unhappiness
in my life when
Our paths lead in
two different ways
I'm all alone,
I'll turn the page
I'll start anew,
but without you
And without a
small piece of me
I'll see it through,
with someone new
But if I don't
it's you and me

OK, let's try this again...
Actions Speak Louder Than Words
Don’t tell me that you need me,
And I’m the best you’ve found,
Because if you really needed me,
You at least would come around.
Don’t talk to me on the phone,
Saying words I want to hear,
And giving me more excuses,
Why you can’t be with me here.
Don’t tell me that you love me,
And how much you really care,
But when I really need you,
I can’t find you anywhere.
Actions speak louder than words,
And for all your fancy talk,
It just don’t mean a thing,
If you can’t walk the walk.
Because it’s not what you say,
As much as what you do,
And if you can’t understand that,
I’ll just find somebody new.

I know not, this thing called love,
I just know what I feel.
I feel empty when you're not there.
I feel sorry for making you cry.
I feel sorry for all the wrongs,
and for making you ask why?
Why did I waste my time?
Why did I fall?
Why did he make me feel so good?
Would have loved to comfort you, in your trusty shawl.
There's no answer to our parting.
There's no reason, none at all.
It's just the way life goes sometimes.
And, reason stands to call.
In the end my love, I loved you,
without pretense or debate.
Here are we, two aside,
and our departure not of hate.
So here my love, my sorrow,
my lament, and my last tear.
I know not why I did it,
and I'm sorry for making you fear.
Never meaning to disturb,
although that was one of the reasons why.
You my dear are a good soul, and so I say,
goodbye.
sadness in the poems guys -hope it gets better for you : )
Torture the data long enough and they will confess to anything.
It's weird. I just don't get inspired as much or write as much when I'm happy happy joy joy. But that AV did bring a smile to my face. Hubba, hubba.
I posted this elsewhere but I haven't posted anything here in ages so..
The Chaos Within
Memories madness tinged
Induce within a slight insanity
And so I guard daily against
the chaos within
Pushing the boundaries
Shuffling through secrets
This conflagaration that is sometimes
the chaos within
Sometimes a wild charm
It draws people like flame
Unable to escape from
the chaos within
Other times rage incandescent
This fiery pit of fury
The flip sided coin of
the chaos within
Flitting from idea to idea
Trying to forge logic
Drawing out reason
from the chaos within
Thriving within it
Yielding it’s untamed nature
like the unknown sculptor evolving art abstract
from the chaos within
And too a watchful protector
Gauging the depths before the mania frenzies forth
To douse the delirium
of the chaos within
Caylee, I'm sorry
Now I lay me down to weep.
The moon, dear friend,
from slumber we retreat.
As countless scour to begin new life,
one and many, I don't know why,
seek to deal unimagined strife.
I'm sorry dear soul, I don't believe.
It may eat them up, I hope,
and today life is less sweet.
Innumerable roads you will not tread.
Someone thought otherwise, that bitch!
Only one wish now fills my head.
Let common sense rule over debate.
Let true justice reign, false hope,
and one dares wonder why so much hate.
Disdain seeps through the ever flowing grey.
Hope you had time to smile, empty promise,
As your light through tarnished lense did stray.
I could not watch the cavalcade.
Honoring your promise, turned deaf.
Let them rot in the bed they've made.
Your memory I shall never forget.
But one probably will, that bitch!
Although I doubt she'll regret.
Unfortunately my dear you never knew.
You're story will be, and has been heard.
Tomorrow I'll wake and suppositions will spew.
The gravity of losing your intended fervor.
I promise, never tarnished.
Love through me, to mine, always and forever.

Cooped up chicken pecking at grubs,
pecking at the computer,
pecking at a chance of love,
pecking at a station in life,
my name is Pecker.
Pecker used to boast,
Pecker used to live,
Pecker used to love,
Pecker used to have fun,
my name is Pecker.
He circumnavigated the globe,
he even got to the moon,
he is now forced to change,
he is now forced to hold back,
my name is Pecker.
Gotta be the gent,
gotta be a man,
gotta feel what they want,
gotta be unlike a man,
my name is Pecker.
Turn the cheek,
stay the course,
get in touch with yourself,
and your inner child,
my name is Pecker.
Pecker moves from one pen to the other,
Pecker has to do what he’s told,
Pecker used to have a backbone,
Pecker must bite his tongue,
My name is Pecker.
Roles reverse with no script,
take your medication to settle down,
take your medication to get it up,
just hoping they don’t wring my neck,
my name is Pecker.
Stepping over you,
it gets redundant at times,
being fattened and never nourished,
hey man, what’s your name?
My name is Pecker.

Happy Birthday Stories Space...
If It's Worth Reading, You'll Find It Here.
In the mood for something to read?
Then of my advice you best take heed.
If it’s worth reading, you’ll find it here,
On a site that’s celebrating its very first year.
Looking for adventure that packs a thrill?
Or a crime drama that ends in a kill?
You can find a romance about a heated affair,
Or a horror story guaranteed to scare.
Supernatural stories if you’re so inclined,
Musings that will exercise your mind,
Science fiction from outer space,
Action stories that end in a chase.
A little humor could brighten your day,
Or maybe you could read a play,
Don’t have time for the next great tome?
Take a few minutes and read a poem.
There’s a great forum if you need advice,
Or help with some literary device,
And if you happen to be a writer too,
You can submit your stories for review.
Yes, Stories Space has just begun,
So come along and join the fun,
To the first year we must bid adieu,
And head on in to year number two.

Purpose
An ocean brimming,
in and out of subconscious,
fertile and anew.
Just a Little Shit : )
You're crazy if you think I'm going into that bar again tonight
You keep it up and the night will end in a fight
Week after week I sit and watch you play with that girl that smirks
Trip after trip to our table I watch you two flirt
That knowing smile she gives you was mine for you before..
You opened that God Damn door
Not gonna be ticked anymore
You go solo down to that store
Let's see if she's still buying when you're available
Are you for sale or like me unsaleable
I may know the answer to that question
Never thought it would have to be mentioned
What about we leave it alone forever
It may save us from a sever
Safe from shit and content in my bed
A knock on wood or maybe my head
Time will tell
What the Hell
Right
You're crazy if you think I'm going into that bar again tonight

This is actually a song idea that started going through my head today as I was taking a walk...I just wrote it up...
Did You Ever Feel The Same?
I remember when I first laid eyes on you,
You were the best I’d ever seen,
I’d never seen a woman like you,
I was wondering where you’d been.
And I recall our very first date,
As I stared into eyes so blue,
I felt myself falling in love,
Head over heels for you.
Refrain…
But there’s so many unanswered questions,
And I’m not going to place the blame,
I just have to wonder sometimes,
Did you ever feel the same?
And I recall that very first kiss,
And I remember from the start,
It was like Cupid shot an arrow,
Aimed straight into my heart.
And I think about the times we loved,
And how you held me tight,
How you set the night on fire,
And how it felt so right.
Refrain…
But there’s so many unanswered questions,
And I’m not going to place the blame,
I just have to wonder sometimes,
Did you ever feel the same?
Now that I’m left alone,
With so many tears I’ve cried,
I wonder why you did me wrong,
I’m wondering why you lied.
And I think about all those tears,
As another falls from my eye,
I have to think if I cry any more,
My tears will all run dry.
Refrain…
And there’s so many unanswered questions,
And I’m not going to place the blame,
I just have to wonder sometimes,
Did you ever feel the same?

I am me
I can be funny
I can be harsh
I can be vague
I can be saucy
I am honest
Some people don't like that
Some people can't hack it
Some people think it's funny
Some people find it insulting
I am content
If it's hard to take
If it upsets you
If it makes you uncomfortable
If you want some more
I am truthful
When you want to talk to me
When you crave my company
When you want my affection
When you want to come back
I am here
Despite what you might think
Although I confuse you
I have your greatest good
As my highest intention
I am me
Loved it Mazza!! Loved the raw honesty!
Sweet Desperation
I put my eyes on you
Full of life stroking
Naked and warm
Put together strong
Straight and intent
I have to touch
yep..
I put my eyes on you
Straight shoulders rubbed with time
Take my breath away
Tingling
Strength from within
Always happy to be here
yep..
I put my eyes on you
Your face
Chiseled with sweet desperation
Sterling silk to touch
Bowed in love
Melt me now
yep.. : )

Ode to a Grecian Urn
I see it, so far away, in its high place.
(I cannot reach)
I admire its shape, its form.
(I cannot touch)
I want to know what's inside.
(I cannot see)
I desire its smooth texture.
(I cannot feel)
I wish to hold it in my hands.
(I promise not to break it)
As night falls all around
Stop, look, but you hear no sound
Still you think somethings there
In your mind it makes you scared
Your being taken on a ride
Stop, look, nowhere to hide
On you go with your life
In your mind you don't know why
Temple of the mind
You hear it calling, calling
You feel it falling, falling
You had better take it slow
Stop, look, nowhere to go
Onwards, forwards and don't look back
In your mind you wait for attack
The clock it ticks so loud
Stop, look, no movement allowed
You pull the covers up so tight
And prey for early morning light
Temple of the mind
You feel it screaming, screaming
You are weeping, weeping

Relatives...
At family gatherings throughout the year,
There are those who add to the holiday cheer,
Those who brighten up your day,
Every time they come your way.
Most are a pleasure to be around,
As fine as any friends I’ve found,
But, there are a few I’d like to lose,
If I could only pick and choose.
Some that are a pain in my rear end,
I’d like to delete like a Facebook friend,
Others who insist they are family,
But sure don’t look a thing like me.
Others who are annoying beyond belief,
Whose only purpose is to bring me grief,
They’ll have to get along on their own,
They are not going to get another loan.
The problem with relatives is understood,
You have to take the bad with the good.
Though some I wish would get lost at sea,
They probably think the same of me.

I have to assume this is an old songwriting attempt, probably from at least ten years ago...I know it's way before I started dating stuff in 2009...
You can definitely find stuff if you dig deep enough...
All You Have To Do Is Pay...
There's a place and time for everything,
so they say.
There are people who will gladly show you the way,
Just smile and listen to what they say,
All you have to do is pay.
There are women who will love you for a price,
They look real good, act real nice.
If you play it right you'll get a lay,
All you have to do is pay.
There are preachers who will save your soul,
It's really simple, give it a go.
They will point you to Heaven and show you the way,
All you have to do is pay.
Next time your feeling blue,
There are friends for rent, for an hour or two.
They will listen to all you say,
All you have to do is pay.
Everyone is a stinkin' whore,
Everyone is two legged store,
Tax your tomorrow, sell your today,
All you have to do is pay.
Eyesight
I dont think people understand,
the difference between precise vision and bland,
To be able to see the world clearly or
the palm of my hand.
My blurred vision prevents me,
from seeing the things I love,
like the curves of a lovely women or
the defintion of a great man,
the falling leaves or the smoothness of the sand.
My world is so foggy its hard to stand,
the weight of this world and all its demands,
If I could only see naturelly things wouldnt be so difficult,
these glasses could work and I could see beyond doubt.
All my senses are strong and capable like a dove,
nothing can hold me down from up above,
but sight is what I really crave.
Maybe I could see more prominently,
if I had freedom on my side
but now I wait,
because my freedom has died
