Dust particles floated in the sunbeam that cascaded through the small window. “Terry’s Cleaning” stretched with the dark blue shirt as the wearer stooped and shifted boxes that had sat undisturbed for decades, transferring them down small stairs that protested under the use. At the bottom of the stairs, a dark haired girl opened them. Some of the dusty boxes went to a large room to await further judgement, and some out by...

The chill sets in whenever I approach, It's been that way since she lost faith in me.However much I try there's still reproach.This cannot be the way it's meant to be.Forgiveness now would be a kindly actFor what our love has been to her and me,Because my faith in her remains intactAnd she must see how great our love would be.It all began with something that was doneThat cut her heart and caused her doubt in me.It was a j...

Jacob I was on my computer writing a paper for my English class when I hear my phone ring letting me know that I had a text. I finish writing my sentence and grab my phone. *Incoming text message from Beautiful Jenny* Hey, Jacob…? I smile. I cornered her one day at school and finally confronted her about why she never texted me. She confessed that she lost my number so I grabbed her phone and called my phone. Since then,...

She gave me everything she had, but I saw it for something else. The signs were there, so clearly to see, but I was looking in another direction. Whenever I needed something, anything, she was there and gave it freely. Her laugh, her smile, her body were all things I took for granted. Her needs were simple and yet I couldn't come through for her when she needed me. She brightened the room and my mood but I, I lived in the...

The past remains the past,The present must be faced.The future comes at last,We mustn't judge in haste.Forgiveness is the rule,A new life must begin.And though the pain was cruelForget and love again.Remember all the good,Let pass all of the bad.You bless your friends, and should,Give joy and make them glad.Awake with dawn each dayResolving at your bestTo keep your hate at bay.If so you've passed a test.Before our lives h...

With all your heart you gave yourself to me.With all my soul I loved you as I should.With all your love you kissed my face with glee.With all my might I hoped you always would.Our days were spent in gambols neath the sun.Our minds agreed that we were meant to be.Our bodies merged and we became as one.Our nights were spent in proof that we were free.My lust was such that I would trust your smile.My faith was such that I co...

There is a tempest raging in my soul, The skies are dropping rain and bringing grief.My ship is foundering upon the shoal,As always I have steered into the reef.Smooth sailing was the way it started out.As kindred spirits we passed o'er the sea.With loving as our goal we had no doubt,And kept the storms behind us and alee.The loss of ships is rare, this was my balm.The winds of fate had swept me far adrift,And left me yea...

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...
