Maybe
The smallest chanceWithin a glimpse…Butterflies hiddenCausing his wince…For a yesIn her eyes todayUntil the mouthComes with nothing to say…But for notRegrets would cheer –Intention so blissful,Challenged by fear.The prick of a roseTo wander his crazy-With a moment to ask…My Valentine; Maybe.

Tired
I am so tired of feeling hated.I am tired of my emotions being traded. I’m so tired of bending and learning while others remain deaf and dumb.I am tired of loving only for every inch of you to be numb. I am tired of a life with all of this waste.I am tired of everything…

The Line
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. You’ve made a choiceAnd in kind…

The Game
I think love has purpose even if it’s pain. After all what else gives you so much to lose- with unbidden right to complain? Each year it’s recognized- a little more youth is lost And you add up the experience – while grimacing at the cost The bends of the mind only squeeze the heart……

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.

Split
If you love who I am Fight for my plea Not control And over me… Fight for happiness Not life’s soul For the opposite Takes its toll… Love me Before hating them Understand time Can be everyone’s friend… And when age Graces you and I Fight for a difference Not a lie… Because where you…

What Should Have Been
The day the world dropped me off Moments it seemed From a blissful weekend Before meeting reality for the millionth time… And “go to hell” I thought Before knowing I was there Or where I belonged In between What should have been.

Wanting for More
Does it matter The earth falls through my fingers Like wine on the floor The smell only lingers… And I brace For a period of regret After the memories Only Alzheimer’s could forget… And I wait Just like those moments before Getting nothing But wanting for more.

Wasted
I’ve Wasted years Missed youth I’ve wasted tears Missed the truth I’ve wasted money Challenged bills I’ve wasted love Looked for thrills I’ve wasted thought Emptied the mind I’ve wasted heart Not being kind. I’ve wasted breath Gambled time Now I’m wasted On cheap red wine.

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.

REMEMBER
Just like yesterday I remember anew I remember where I was And what I thought too. I remember the shock And pain inside Yet still not comprehending How many would die. I remember the strength And the church down the street I remember the love Among strangers who’d meet. I remember this now Like I…

DOGGED life
Chaos is normal Walking outside Waking up Falling asleep. Within the noise Is a love Cherished memories In moment’s keep.

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…

My Only Forever
I am lucky Not for now or never But for here and now My only forever. I could dread the trials Or the following day But I’d miss it all Living that way. I must see the sun And love the stars Appreciate the moment Of where we are. Not fear the future By what…

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.
-
With Care
There were words On the tips of tongues And then silence Before heartbreak begun. No intention Or dreadful deed Just ignored No matter volume of pleads. To forgive When no hurt meant Is still difficult With feelings bent. Loneliness is often When it should only be rare And most often given From the people who…

I’ll Take
I’ll take a touch Look Or breath…. I’ll take an hour Panting Sweat…. I’ll take an embrace A minute Or two…. I’ll take them all If the moment Is with you.

What??
What? Something I said? Is it my teeth? Position of my head? Life is hard Being this damn good Waiting on you To be understood. So I’ll wait patiently And let you take a pic Then put my lip back Where my teeth let it stick.

In Loving Memory
I witnessed the end With no middle or beginning- Confusion and torment And faith growing and thinning…. I heard the stories told As laughs were appreciated and shared All about a young man Who could no longer be there. The more I learned about you- Less anything made sense… Actions so regrettable- Knowledge missing a…

Lust
In love with you Or maybe the thought But I’ll see it to the end With all I’ve got.
