POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write from the heart, the head, and the soul. Not perfect but I enjoy doing it.
Peace
Stars align the shining sea
Sunlight moves the water free
Time stands still as we hope to be
We hope to swim in the sea of tranquility
Forgotten hope and forgotten sorrow
Clock will strike on the day of morrow
Unlimited wealth you hope to borrow
As you wish to be in the place of Catanzaro
Looking for that thing you love
Seeing angels come from above
Flying across the sky like a simple dove
Feeling so safe as if in a glove
Wondering what you have seen
Looking for that special magic bean ...
Sunlight moves the water free
Time stands still as we hope to be

Forgotten hope and forgotten sorrow
Clock will strike on the day of morrow
Unlimited wealth you hope to borrow
As you wish to be in the place of Catanzaro
Looking for that thing you love
Seeing angels come from above
Flying across the sky like a simple dove
Feeling so safe as if in a glove
Wondering what you have seen
Looking for that special magic bean ...

Quiet
You ever look at the water
Hear the quiet of the air
Look at the trees
And watch the way you begin to stare
Thinking about way back when
Pictures in your mind
Moments of no regret
And just want to rewind
Time seems to stand still
You see things that you thought you missed
Nothing is around you
You look at your wrist
You wonder how time has gone
How you got here
What's gonna happen next
What is near
Hear the quiet of the air
Look at the trees
And watch the way you begin to stare
Thinking about way back when
Pictures in your mind
Moments of no regret
And just want to rewind
Time seems to stand still
You see things that you thought you missed
Nothing is around you
You look at your wrist
You wonder how time has gone
How you got here
What's gonna happen next
What is near

What do you believe?
We believe that moments don't last
One minute you are in front the next you are passed
Money and power drives
And you are just hoping to stay along for the ride
We are afraid
Afraid of getting to the end of the credits and seeing nothing at the end as it fades
We follow our dreams
But very rarely do we get the chance to redeem
We see hope, anger, and regret
We are our greatest debt
Change becomes more change
And all your previous thoughts begin to feel strange
We are stuck in the same cycle
Wanting to be...

Moment of Truth
Everything is falling apart around me
My mind is filled with lies
I start looking for the beauty
And try to keep teardrops from my eyes
The room starts spinning
I'm locked in chains
I look to start winning
I try to keep myself from going insane
I sense some sort of magic in the air
I sense a presence coming close
I try to run from this nightmare
I start to lose all my hopes
I fight for all I got
I tear open the cage
I break out and am now not caught
I start to fill with rage
...

Looking for something
I wake
I fall asleep
I take
And then fall into the deep
All i see is nothing
Nothing but what i need
What i need is something
To hope for indeed
What do i do
Take a left turn
But what if i need to take a right too
From this ship maybe i need to go to the stern
Im looking for reason
Looking for time as well
Waiting for the season
To find a way to tell
Hopefully i can make
For my own sake
Not cause an earthquake
And generate a heartbreak
Living life on a whim ...

Who am I
I look at myself
And i don't know who i am
I walk into a crowd
and feel like a lost lamb
My whole life unknown
The whole meaning untold
The stories they unfold
And the mess it just implodes
I look at the sky
I see the stars twinkle in the night
I see the darkness all around me
And i push with all my might
The door feels locked
The cave feels sealed
I want to get out
But i struggle to figure out what is real
I want to rise above it all
And begin my dream
But how do you begin...
And i don't know who i am
I walk into a crowd
and feel like a lost lamb
My whole life unknown
The whole meaning untold
The stories they unfold
And the mess it just implodes
I look at the sky
I see the stars twinkle in the night
I see the darkness all around me
And i push with all my might
The door feels locked
The cave feels sealed
I want to get out
But i struggle to figure out what is real
I want to rise above it all
And begin my dream
But how do you begin...
