You come home and find me sitting here

And ask how my day is going

Acting as though I have open ears

And nothing better to be knowing

Than all about you

And all that you do

I'm the one who nags about your mess

Even though you never listen

I give more, y…

Emotions rage & flare inside my mind


I panic, scream, & quiver oftentimes,


But these explosive feelings feel confined


Behind a barricade that muffles, mutes, & binds.

I know I'm having feelings, but their sound


Is stifled, distant; my heart seems quit…

My snow is grey and never white

It glows and slowly drifts from sight

I watch it fall and breathe the scent

And never wondered where it went

My fog is thin and never fills

It floats and swirls where e'er it wills

I watch the clouds and trace the streams

…

Inspiration sought

but just for a thought

a snippet of something to say

Longs' been the time

when my heart penned a rhyme

emotions inspiring some prose

A muse just to bring

to light a small thing

that awakens creativities flow

when quite so suddenly

I …

A wolf I will claim

yet a dog I became

there was no other way to describe

I did all that you said

as your little pet

ignoring my pride

I lavished affection

at your beck and call begging

for your hand upon my furry hide

At the time I confess

that I love…

And now, like a spirit, your voice rings once more


How confusing to put them together:


Your voice, and your words, I could never expect


You would speak this way to me. Can we reconnect?


With the return of hot, muggy weather


Comes a new conversation. …

You were so sure I'd wronged you, you'd made me believe

It was surely my fault; but then, how?


All the pages grew soggy and limp with the turning;


There were so many leads, but they all left me burning,


But the smoke didn't spell out an answer; well, n…

I never understood what I'd done that was wrong,


Why you exiled me thus from my life.

Was it something I did? Was it something I said?

I strapped me to a table, I taped still my head


Underneath the hot lights. I was cut with a knife


But my brain wouldn…

A storm is approaching

it’s on the horizon

so cover your eyes now

and consume your poison

The harsh winds are blowing

the clouds are rolling in

the good Lord turns his back

as you commit your sins

Run from your problems

run so far away

it makes …

Chaos ensues. All that was once so eloquently placed is now thrown into the wind. The pieces land with no apparent rhyme or reason. An intrigued outsider may sit to the side and calmly observe those around him frantically scramble to create some form of d…

The night I laid out my heart,

turned my life outside down,

Our relationship had a new start...

Best of friends for so many years,

been through so much together,

at some point, my heart - it interfered.

Patiently - you listened,

as I talked for hours,

I…

You tell me to shine,

but as soon as I do-

all I hear is whine, whine, whine..

Tell me once and for all,

what you want me to do,

This request is small.

My hearts on the line,

and my mind is a racin',

Could you give me a sign?

Calm me,

like you used to …

"Then the two will become one..."

is what they say,

Now, love has won -

Insecurities and distrust is frayed.

Today you vow to God above,

To honor, to respect,

but most of all: to Love -

then never have anything else to regret.

Your Bride - the radiance,…

These short nine years,

have gone by so fast,

Our lives intertwined by-

love and trust - so vast.

From boys to books,

our friendship never

dared to forsook

because it is forever.

As we grow old-

-er, our secrets - untold,

our lives separated,

by time an…
