Twenty Years

It’s just me... thinking.

I used to sleep close to your heart you held me tight, kissed my head goodnight. You said, "This is how I would have us sleep all of our nights." I stayed because I loved the sound of your heart beating while I slept. I would wake up and you would look at me and kiss me good morning. One night your hold on me loosened. No more good night kisses. No more...Read On

The Shadow

Only dreamers Standing in the shadows Free of judgment and rejection Masking their fears Their eyes are The window to their souls Where all of their secrets hide The cries of their hearts Cannot be seen And their tears Cannot be touched Sometimes the shadow In the dark comes out Walking towards A wishful dream The storm raged In their hearts Lightning flashed Through...Read On

Goodbye Dixie

A poem of what was and will never be.

You were the prettiest face, had the voice of an angel. Your laugh lit up the day, your smile owned my heart. When first I saw you, hypnotized in your grace, lost in your big blue eyes, I knew it would be you. Was it your innocent charm? Dressed for church all fine with a magnolia in your hair, all I could do was stare. Your sweet precious voice that mesmerized the boys, set...Read On

Feel it ... Love

I walked through the garden And I looked for your hand I felt it slowly in my palm It warmed me and I was content It was love I had been waiting for It was your love that found me Two hearts uniting in ardor Beating together a life to explore Your strength surrounded me Our laughter could be heard Two happier people you never did see It is love by definition of the word No longer...Read On

Quarry

Bulky, unwieldy Awkwardly arranged Plunked on the paper Like big clods of clay That is how words Appear now to be When I want to convey What you mean to me Needing to craft Nuances of thought Instead a Neanderthal Pounds with a rock Inadequate language Inartfully clubbed Unable to voice Prayerful facets of love Chunks great of speech Plunge hillside down When I seek precise beauty...Read On

All I Need

I have all I need

Together, all our love this night, was for our children’s dreams. Their tiny toys and bits of sweets, safely wrapped beneath our tree. Rewarded by their innocence, their joy of life, and their sweet repose. It warms my heart, and it warms yours, too to give them all of those. Our family sings and loves and laughs on this Christmas eve. And with them in...Read On

Wings Of Time

The silence wakes me in the early morning hours As the moon shimmers through my window Listening to the wind softly crying Whispering gently in my ear Sitting beneath the stars, sparkling and so bright Sensing the mystery on this silent night My thoughts running endlessly On the wings of time Let us take this moment Maybe I can make you smile Bring a sparkle to your eye And...Read On

So Gone

I found an email Yesterday That you had sent to me A party Some festive affair With date and place To be Four years ago You sent it I remember the event Even down to what I wore The evening we had spent There were so many nights like that Attended through the years But they tend to run together Without reminders near Time has passed And so have you I stop and think How long ...Read On

What You Don't Know

When all that we have is my love...

You may not know for I won’t tell just how much you've cast your spell Stolen moments borrowed time shared jokes happy lines Thoughts of you makes my heart race awake and alone I imagine your face With just your presence makes me feel anew for all I want is a moment with you Each word you sketch a perfect reflection who can blame those that steal your affection...Read On

Sweet Dreams

Whenever I think about my love for you, I see all my dreams coming true. Good night.

As another day together is ending Your body spooning my naked skin I ache to tell you my heart’s desire Trying to find words but can't begin It seems so trivial to confine our love To black font typed upon a white sheet Yet my heart’s heavy with the desire to Convey how my world is now complete Love and passion have eluded me Both fueling my most naive fantasies Fate brought our...Read On

The Game

Love's a game of players Though not all quite the same, The most dangerous players of all Are those addicted to the game They move quickly through the others Collecting hearts along the way, Not caring who is left behind As long as they can play Thinking they are skillful Pretending to be real, Know how to make you want them, know how to make you feel The tactics that are used...Read On

101 Words From Me

The Way I See It

In pain we scare, In pain we hide, In pain we cry, In pain we lie, In pain we fear. Enough of the scared, Enough of the hiding, Enough of the tears, Enough of the lies, Enough of the fears. When will it ever be enough? Take away the fears, Take away the need to hide, Take away the need to cry, Take away the need to lie. Take away the need to be full of fear. Let...Read On

Blondie's Song

This one was just sort of for fun.

“Let’s ride,” she said, or rather said I And he lay down beside me, prick aimed at the sky My magnificent cuckold of destruction and death Draining my soul and stealing my breath. “Get on little girl!” I felt obliged to correct him Growling softly and sinking my teeth in Little perhaps but the girl had long fled Drowned in a shower of powder and lead. “Let’s ride,” he said,...Read On

Adrift

Misplaced in a waking world of silent dreams

The city burns down around my footsteps Consumed by the fires of inattention Discarded and forgotten Like a gentle whisper upon a breeze Fluttering away like the cold ash of the morning after I pass through this place Walking, hoping Dreaming A lost soul drifting on currents of concrete and glass Rudderless, amid the focused and determined Misplaced in a waking world of...Read On

Hidden Inside

Even the pain we hide deep inside finds its way to the surface....

There are dark and hidden parts of me Parts I don't let even you see I have cracks and broken edges Memories I would love to set free Oftentimes the ones we trust Leave the most damage behind I try my best to box up the pain Tuck it deep in the back of my mind When you look in my eyes I wonder Do you see the fear I’m trying to hide Maybe If I can conceal it well enough You will see...Read On

Forever Written In Stone

Our fate lives within us, you only have to be brave enough to see it. ~ Brave

Something happened for the very first time with you; there was a pull to be a part of your world, to be one with you. Emotions overpowering; consuming my heart and soul, running longer than a rolling stream, higher than a mountains peek. Embedded in my very being, etched in my mind, features of your face I longed to memorize. I see you when the sun rises and sets, dreams and...Read On

When he held her hand

They lived a happy life

When he held her hand, She was a young girl. They walked and talked, And often he'd take her for a twirl. When she became a young woman, He got down on one knee. He asked her to stay and become his wife, She smiled and kissed him, and they started their life. As husband and wife they lived their days, Raising the children, and giving them praise. Still he held her middle aged hand,...Read On

My Old Friend Pain

Welcome back my old friend pain I forgot how you demand my attention Nothing compares to the way you feel The paralyzing strength of your grip For in your absence my old friend I find myself forgetting the dance we do Tonight you make your presence known As I grip the covers and beg for relief To live a life in pain is no way to be but escaping you seems impossible because even on...Read On

At some point she stopped listening When he would talk to her Displaying a delightful smile Through boredom thick as tar Wondering how she got here Become the walking dead Catching just the tail end And so she’d nod her head Feigning her compassion Planning what’s for lunch Playing with her earrings Glancing at her watch Inserting mental earbuds Blocking out his voice ...Read On

Be My Valentine

For Simplicity, My one. My only. Forever

I asked you to be mine Not just you heart nor simply your soul I wanted all of you, from your blond, tussled hair To those cute little toes. I wanted your love, your passion, and your devotion when all others who claimed to return those things failed you. I wanted your trust. Your belief that I would stand by when all others fled. I wanted you to know I would not be like them. I...Read On

Words Can't Describe

My feelings defy description...but I'll try...

I tried to tell you how I feel, But the words just didn’t work. How can I express what you mean to me? If I were an artist, I’d paint you, With fine lines and bold color and great movement To illustrate your physical grandeur. If I were a musician, I’d sing you, With swelling crescendos and intricate chords and complicated harmonies To communicate your creative spirit. If I were...Read On

sometimes there is an end

your hands caress and pull, showing me the power of my feral desire for you. I beg you to fuck me, to burn me alive, to melt my boundary walls, to make me the thing you would choose. as your body enters mine and your mouth takes all there is of me, I feel my life drain away to be replaced by some unknown numbness. oh, the pump will continue to beat and a...Read On

One Thousand

A thousand times, one thousand more...

To say I was sorry, I really have tried, A thousand nights alone I've cried. A thousand times I've tried to be strong, A thousand rights, a thousand wrongs. I didn't mean those words I said, Now all alone, just me in our bed. A thousand glances at the door, Hoping, waiting, a thousand more. A thousand messages on your phone, Please warm for me your heart of stone. I sit and...Read On

Afterglow

She’s a rare bird, untamed and wild Who makes me smile With the intensity of a climax Fierce and raw and savage And strangely tender, too. Funny how freeing it is To be on the business end of a leash Proudly paraded around the park in pink panties. Oh, in a perfect world, Where judges were but wisps of cotton candy That would be my chosen place… A bird, (I said) but...Read On

Bruised Heart

Our Love stands strong ... Take your lies and move on

A bruised heart, a tear falls I sit in silence looking at the walls Thinking how deep my love is for you How all of our promises were given and true A single word, a sentence so vile All were delivered in guile Why must one hurt another's heart It was done to try to tear us apart Through the lies and deception I see It was done out of hatred we both agree A jealous path never ends...Read On

Sic Luceat Lux

Thus let the light shine

Too long in love with easeful darkness, Replete with sorrow, filled to the seam. Plucked from its depths to bask in light's caress, As if slipping supinely into a dream. Poured forth from my lips my soul as sultry prose, From a heart as heavy as weathered stone. Words softly whispered, cadences a hundredfold, From naught but love, and flesh, and bone. The warming amber of dusk’s...Read On

Storm’s scent informs me that it is time to go. Drops and drips moisten torn places barely dried-out, dampened, drenched from the prior encounter... encounters. Pressures graduate from drizzle to downpour. In its midst, I wait for the you in me to un-claim, unbind from the right now exchange... exchanges. Forces subside to a recurrent rhythm. Your omnipresence is a whet ...Read On
