As the sand man visited herFinally eyelids felt weighted As she slept, her lover came to bedFor so long she had waited She dreamt of him each nightFor that was their time togetherAt nighttime she was fearlessHer worries light as a featherShe pulled her covers backAnd she let him crawl inThe warmth of his bodyLike heaven against her skinShe had memorized his touchThe sweet feel of his kiss Together forever she swore Her dr...

How is it that a mind can be so vibrantYet the physical body is falling apartSo many adventures yet to be hadSo much beautiful love in my heartI cringe when people take life for grantedNot appreciating their unlimited potentialMy beautiful world was turned upside downBecause I couldn't make what was essentialDoctors said blood cells are not reproducing And without them you will never surviveBut I refuse to give up and I c...

When I was an innocent little girlMonsters were easy to seeHiding in closets and under bedsMasked in the shadows of the treeBut as people get older, they get wiserThe monsters also learn to blend inThey hide behind beautiful facesMasking their evil spirit withinThey often come to you bearing giftsChocolates or maybe a beautiful rose Passionately declaring their true loveWritten themselves in beautiful prose The monsters l...

She was a new girl.I had seen her sometimes,strolling through the market,taking her time, enjoying the booths and the people.I never saw her actually purchase anythingbut she always had a smile for those tryingto get a sale out of her,before gently refusing and moving on.My poor booth never drew her attentionuntil today when she stopped in front of me,offering an impish smile of greeting to my well worn whiskery face. My...

In the garden, by the french doors, watching the path, Waiting for the one and only one who won't come. Life is a long, unending glimpse of the future Without her, with no exemption or resumption Of the love we shared, we lost, she took it away.  Wasted time, wasted life, it may seem so to you And I have felt the same myself, but nevermore. I have seen, down the lane, a shadow as my soul Wends down the grassy lane, my dea...

Love is a feelingUnlike no otherIt only takes one lieFor the flame to smotherShe felt her heart breakShe felt an empty placeBut after the tears stoppedThe pain began to eraseFor if love is trueThen forgiveness is sureWho knew that his voiceCould be her pain's cureHe was unlike any otherHe made her laugh with easeAll she knew now is thatHim she wanted to pleaseShe wanted to love awayHis pain and his sadnessTo find their ow...

It always seems to be the way You don't try hard and lose the day. She asks so little from you now Perhaps she has forgotten how.  A loss, a hurt, an ache she shared But you were slow to show you cared.  Away, she goes away to think And leaves your love life on the brink. This is not lust, but much, much moreAnd barely have you tried before.  Sweet dear she is, a part of you You must attempt to start anew.  Reach out with...

Are we always to be ships passing in the night Will you never forget the past and let us live Do you ever expect to regret, to make right Or is your heart too deadened by pain to forgive We are sharing a space but I love out of sight You ignore my new face so what more can I give In this darkness I wander in search of the light I must shine for your soul to derive a delight In a new healthy loving we base on an oath To se...
