I live a longer lifeStumbling and living,To see you moreWith wrongs so giving… But less has the consequenceOf less days to live. . .So, fill my heartTo find a will to give… Through more goodbyesAnd changes too,If only I could share. . .But goodbye was so soon. I must honor your lifeAnd my gift of … Continue reading Living

Excuse You!
You had everything to lose
To Know
Someone you know-AND used to know-Is a complicated mess..You wait for timeAnd common senseTo get you through “this”… It always hurtsBut tears are dryAs days and months pass…Yet it wasn’t meWho asked for thisOr the one who made it last. In body you are aliveAnd wellAnd that is all I know…Still when you leftHe was … Continue reading To Know
Nobody’s
Sneer and Regret We see itThroughout life…Once here,Now gone by night. That final time,Driving away-When we are not there,And now nothing to say… Yes and the whispersOf loss or when we met-Pay attention…“We’ll get you yet” Oh but we are deafTo snickers and snorts…Lessons from them-We have our retorts… Until you start the carTo Away … Continue reading Nobody’s
The Line
Image created with Nightsky and Pixlr To mournBefore a death-Is met with forgivenessAnd a debt… For no sorrowCould be planned-Like betrayingWith Hatred’s hand… And still it wasA sight before-Like the RavenThis was never-more. My heart hurtsBut my eyes are dry-Because of storiesBuilt by lies. While this loveWill forever live-I have nothing elseTo you to give. … Continue reading The Line

Normalcy
It’s not real But desired.
Whispers
Soft whispers dance As though ears hear Or understand A place They tempt the earth Clearing the heart. . . To remind of life And cheers No empty dance on the floor Or childless playground Could exist Inside these whispers. Image by JusTee
Only
Only a fool Would miss the day Only a fool Would dismiss me this way... Only love Would keep me here Only love Would pass the fear Only you Would miss what is Only you Would leave it like this.
So Simple
Such spirit Whispering through the skies So Simple The connection between you and I So lost When I try to lead my own way Now focused In the presence to find a way More strong In an environment to make you weak Heartbroken Before the guidance we all seek. Consistent As history has always been … Continue reading So Simple
Heartbreak
I was everything Then nothing All at once. I was wanted And rejected Within a matter of months. I was over Once started Wet forced dry… You came Then you left A relationship high. Without light No home Lost a path to take. The moon A savior Guiding heart to break.
Wounded Warrior
The toll takes its silence Solid base cracks Meaning spread with wind chimes A Breeze loses will. Victory chased Losses seem covered As the storm shelters pass The wounded hero.
Enigmatic
Someone unknown While having a name . . . Walking the mile Assigning guilt and shame. Performing a role Without knowing how it's done - Challenging the winner Before the game is won. Defending a stranger Offering means to succeed… Not knowing the problem But fulfilling the need. Hearing a voice Sensing a presence near … Continue reading Enigmatic
Dear John
Dear John If that was your name… A burning desire… Will never be the same. No hiding the truth Or manipulating lies… Just the need to grieve From deep in my thighs. In-love with the memory- Burned by reality- And for a moment no hope- For something to save me. I was good at … Continue reading Dear John
Saving Grace
Jon's daily walks brought peace on difficult days, and allowed him to have at least one healthy habit. Today his walk was different. Today the walk cemented a sadness inside - instead of providing solace from a hectic world. The loss of his angel was something there was no comfort for, and even his legs … Continue reading Saving Grace
