POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write from the heart, the head, and the soul. Not perfect but I enjoy doing it.
Not Sure
I'm not sure what I'm doing today
I'm not sure where I'm going tomorrow
I'm not sure what I need to say
I'm not sure of the path to follow
I'm lost on a foggy night
Nothing to even see
I'm in for a long tough fight
I'm trying to be free
The darkness that's inside
The hope that leaves my heart
I will run and hide
I don't know where to start
Pain is what I feel
I don't what to do
I don't know what is real
I got nobody to go to
I'm not sure what I'm doing today
I'm not sure where I'm...
I'm not sure where I'm going tomorrow
I'm not sure what I need to say
I'm not sure of the path to follow
I'm lost on a foggy night
Nothing to even see
I'm in for a long tough fight
I'm trying to be free
The darkness that's inside
The hope that leaves my heart
I will run and hide
I don't know where to start
Pain is what I feel
I don't what to do
I don't know what is real
I got nobody to go to
I'm not sure what I'm doing today
I'm not sure where I'm...

Cage of Stone
It's time for me to go
It's time for me to be my own
It's time for me to show
It's time for me to be known
I'm dreaming of the world I could know
I'm running I'm not gonna be alone
I'm living but now it's time to grow
I'm breaking my cage of stone
It's time for me to go
It's time for me to be my own
It's time for me to show
It's time for me to be known
I'm dreaming of the world I...
It's time for me to be my own

It's time for me to be known
I'm dreaming of the world I could know
I'm running I'm not gonna be alone
I'm living but now it's time to grow
I'm breaking my cage of stone
It's time for me to go
It's time for me to be my own
It's time for me to show
It's time for me to be known
I'm dreaming of the world I...

Hear
Imagine that everything was quiet
Close your eyes, try it
Now imagine voices completely silent
Imagine being alone on an island
No music or emotion to hear
Endless feelings of fear
Never knowing what is near
Never knowing what will appear
What if you can't communicate
What if the light doesn't illuminate
What if you feel you will suffocate
What if your thoughts they all terminate
Hearing is a blessing to me
It's not just a way to speak but to see
It helps you feel free ...
Close your eyes, try it
Now imagine voices completely silent
Imagine being alone on an island
No music or emotion to hear
Endless feelings of fear
Never knowing what is near
Never knowing what will appear
What if you can't communicate
What if the light doesn't illuminate
What if you feel you will suffocate
What if your thoughts they all terminate
Hearing is a blessing to me
It's not just a way to speak but to see
It helps you feel free ...

Invisible
The truth is out there to discover
The lies you can uncover
The thoughts you can share each other
The evil you can smother
I'm not trying to create music just art
You might not think this at the start
I speak from my heart
My emotions they don't depart
I'm not rhyming because I want to rap
It's a way I can read the map
I look at my fingers and snap
Finally I can nap
Poems are thoughts you can't seem to lose
It's why you write, it's your muse
Without writing, your heart has a bruise
No chance to...

Look at the hate
We ask people to rate
We sit and wait
No view it will obliterate
We have weapons in our arsenal
Anything is possible
Click on the article
Isn't it remarkable
You get a suggestion
An answer to your question
Feed your intestine
Don't have indigestion
Do you feel the friction
Ready for crucifixion
I'm making a prediction
Your story is science fiction
My life I will narrate
Let me put on a beret
100% success rate
So game over, checkmate

My mind
The truth isn't debatable
Knowledge is insatiable
Life is relatable
Your future isn't forsakeable
Your mind is breakable
Your heart is takeable
Your body is incapable
The journey isn't makeable
Can you control fate
Can you create
Open the gate
Throw out hate
Before it's too late
Don't wait
Fight the nightmare
Give it a stare
Make it beware
You are there
Pull up a chair
Try to dare
You are unbeatable
You are unbelievable
Your path is seekable
Your...

Reality
What is real?
What is fake?
Is what you see true?
What about opinions you make?
Are you truly here?
Are you just a figment of someone's mind?
Are you in someone's game?
Is that what you will find?
Who are you?
Are you even alive?
Do you have thoughts?
Are you just another bee in a hive?
Is your mind even controlled by you?
Do you have any say in what is chosen?
Are you just a random spin from death?
Are you in ice and frozen?
Is this all a dream?
Is this all a simulation?
Is there...

Looking for the Sun
This is a story of the fight for survival. The fight to find light.
The cold frigid air was making it hard to breathe. I hadn't found any place where it was warm for a while now. Ever since the sun went out, the world has been in chaos. My mother told me that she loved me right before she was shot. People were desperate for food and killed each other over it. My mother was the unlucky soul who tried to protect her child and died because of it. Imagine your mother on her knees in front of you, a gun in her face, and you can't do anything to help her. She died in front of me and I...

Being an empath
I think about more than just me
I don't ever really sleep
I keep thinking about everyone's pain
That hits me pretty deep
I think of all the hate
I think of what I could do
But I can't think of anything
I don't have any clue
I know others better than I know myself
I don't know how to feel
I don't have any thing to say
I don't know how to heal
I'm not one who cares about what I need
I might be talkative but I'm not really speaking
I might seem ok but I am not
The truth is all I keep seeking
