POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
"I'm just me...who I was meant...and want to always be."
SLEEP!
From childhood's hour onto a man
His course was set, his life was planned
As others were- he was not seen
As others saw- he could not bring...
- the meaning of why this may seem
But through red orbs, without beam.
His calm has come, yet too soon
For us to expose a sudden wound
Now are thoughts, thou shalt not banish-
Now are visions ne'er to vanish
From this earth now to pass
To be like dew drops on the grass
The untold want to ease the pain
The journey home upon the plane
Now voyager sail thou forth to thee
And keep...

A Prayer
I pray for guidance and understanding, understanding of me and why I continue to be trapped. Trapped in a continuous cycle.
My life seems to be determined by continued disappointments that I tend to face as my reality… Brief interludes of happiness are like rays of sunshine that temporarily pierce the clouds on a stormy day.
Seasons change, but on each rotation everything's the same…
Every spring brings something new to your life,
Every fall takes something old or no longer necessary away, and every winter kills that which is toxic...

Fire and Ice
The fire of the ice, it pierces my skin,
-Chills my soul with hate within.
To forgive is to take a knife to the heart
Be content to my thoughts is my only part.
Longing for someone to understand me,
Without this hurt who would I be?
The weight of the world, I bare it all
But who's there for me when I fall?
I cannot support everyone around,
I have but two feet to place on the ground.
You need to realize-
I'm no different from you.
I need someone sometimes just as you do.

A Smile
A smile captured and detained within the madness of it's surroundings.
Like a rose among weeds unnoticed and swallowed in a sea of nothing with only it's thorn to protect what's left of what makes it precious.
Those unaware of that which stands among them, and never to know the happiness within that smile.

The woman that's me
I am that which enriches the seeds of my loins.
I encourage growth...strong, continuous
and able to withstand even the mightiest of influences
and storm any weather,
My arms shadow you with strength like clouds
shielding you from those forces of nature
that wish to do harm.
Like volcanoes, I erupt with anger when a threat draws near
I can survive anything, face any obstacle that poses a challenge
to the nurture and guidance needed to produce a well developed...
Piece of my future.

The path
I went to the Garden of Love
And saw what I never did see.
A gate was built in the midst,
Where my sweet Jesus awaited me
And in the gate was a chapel, that
Was filled with Heaven's love
Then I found thee, and we
drifted like doves.

Denied Truth
A thousand times I have tried to find the reason why...because of me you deny the truth that's in our hearts.
Words that hurt, strike with truth, but in a way that destroys the spirit of the connection... tainted by dark orbs, like a shadow that darkens the once flamboyant pair.
Increasingly... and I cannot see the tree that sits before me that shelters me from all that would without affect what is again me.
What has changed... not love between two souls, Not concern for one another, but maybe the understanding? What's needed by one for the other to thrive amongst...

The Untold
The chill through my skin when you touch with such caress
Just a glimpse of your flesh and that forced tenderness
That look that you give that puts words to the test
My fantasies run wild when my heads laid to rest
The thrust of your body full of fury and lust
I vision your hands as they stroll cross my bust
I can hardly wait as sweet ecstasy draws near
But to prematurely awake is my only fear
I have waited for this moment as the sun waits to set
There will be no question of, have you finished yet
But when all is said and done and I wake up...
Just a glimpse of your flesh and that forced tenderness
That look that you give that puts words to the test
My fantasies run wild when my heads laid to rest
The thrust of your body full of fury and lust
I vision your hands as they stroll cross my bust
I can hardly wait as sweet ecstasy draws near
But to prematurely awake is my only fear
I have waited for this moment as the sun waits to set
There will be no question of, have you finished yet
But when all is said and done and I wake up...

Taken Love
I give you me,
something never given in a way that I have chosen to give you.
I give you love,
the one thing that I longed for but was never given without a price.
I give you my soul,
showing you my inner self, the vulnerable side of me.
I give you the opportunity,
to know loyalty, truth and true commitment.
I give you my heart,
with your name etched on it...but most of all,
I give you a choice...
What will you give me?
something never given in a way that I have chosen to give you.
I give you love,
the one thing that I longed for but was never given without a price.
I give you my soul,
showing you my inner self, the vulnerable side of me.
I give you the opportunity,
to know loyalty, truth and true commitment.
I give you my heart,
with your name etched on it...but most of all,
I give you a choice...
What will you give me?
