POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
A logical and honest poet who dives deep into the psyche seeking truth and wisdom.
Dreams Roam Tonight
One day we will go toward this endless road
But as for now at least we have tonight
And on this night where suspending dreams are found now roaming aimlessly
amongst those wandering free
Completely in the moment
where nothing is out of reach
ambitions persevering
As two souls became entwined
neither one of us having to go through this life blind
Reminiscent of the times in those old movies
where true love would flourish instantly
no more instability
This is our inevitability
to be the other persons whole
Not abandoning this chance
of...

Looking Back
Does it make any difference
Just being apologetic
Damn, it makes me laugh
How you're oh so photogenic
The world has now flipped upside down
Diving headfirst to the ground
Once surrounded by serenity
Now haunted by a past then too blind to see
It's funny how when looking back
Wondering how it got off track
Causing thoughts to be out of whack
A subconscious under attack
Guessing this should be addressed
Digressing, cant fold under stress
No obsessing over details
That derailed and unveiled this tale
From being a love that could...

Bashful Vulnerability
She dances ceaselessly in endless circles
Oblivious to the boundless cosmic energy
The flower so perfectly placed within her hair
Is a dead giveaway of her fondness for nature
Her body moves to an unheard rhythm,
But not to her
No,
Her mind is generating a sound
Nobody else can hear
Her fluid movements like an ocean
So free and infinite
No laws
No limitations
Excess

Past the Limit of No Return
Come ride the twisting vortex
There’s madness all around
Pushing the human mind to its limits
Stretching mortal consciousness
To the verge of snapping
Attempting a game called
Go insane
Pondering the outcome
Who will play
Anyone?
Because once you start
You cannot go back
Still interested
?

Trust your instincts
Spellbinding sensations
As I glare profoundly into your soul
Haven’t felt this close in a long time
Emotions exerting
From under layers of previous mistrust
Wouldn’t let most into
This troubled existence
Although
This time seems different
Perhaps
Actually attempt
To give this chemistry a try
Pursue curiosity
The possibilities endless
Time will unfold as it should
Whatever the chosen direction
Have faith and give it some chance
For everything will be fine

Excrutiating Visions
Eyes twitching
Body shaking
Deep inside a dream
Entwined within its vicious scheme
A nightmare beyond
Your wildest imagination
Extreme terror
Making your body tense up
Supreme numbness
Shortage of breath
But wait
Everything’s fine
Or so it seems
Sweat on your brow
You spring up with a flash
What the hell was that
But by the time you try to remember it
The thought now hazy
You lay back down
Hoping the dream to come
Is better than its predecessor
Except
The nightmare gets worse...

Atmospheric Haze
Under water odyssey
Unfolds before my eyes
Colors awkward
Times awry
Trying to describe
This subconscious mindset
Where oblivion lingers on
Dangling infinite wisdom
Although too complex to fully understand
Then abruptly awakening
Confused and heart racing
Anxiety at its peak
But why
Could dreams be miniscule visions
Into a potential future
Visually abstracted states of mind
Naïve to eternal possibilities
Activity of thought
Goes beyond our control

Lost Pariah
Quite Suddenly Sullen
In unsought sorrow
Through quiet retreat
Comes complete abandonment of structure
Hindering reason
And inhibiting intellect
Somehow rationality became misconstrued
Into an inability
To cope with decadence
Still slowly shuffling
In a directionless manor
Roving with no clear
Sense of stability
Resulting in
Dissociation of the senses
Where there is no escape from failure
Bringing One farthest from a cerebral utopia
Thus blurring
The path to liberation
And suppressing...

Cause for Concern
Your psychological state
Is deflating you straight
Into irrelevance
At an astounding rate
Awaiting for you
To create these irate
Collection of interrelating debates
Negating the fact
That you cannot retract
Nor subtract
The impacts of your exact
Overreactions that always distract
Which can flare-up abruptly
And detach what's intact
Now by not letting up
You corrupt and disrupt
Any developments made
Every time you erupt
I'm inclined to remind you
That your narrow mind's due
To pursue other...

Slightly Askew
Lately it appears
As if something is missing
That spark's not quite there
Have you started dismissing
By becoming increasingly distant
Are you growing immune
At an inopportune moment
Unfortunate events
Are now putting dents
Causing you to lament
All the time that's been spent
Your abandonment issues
Manifest malcontent
Presenting the case
That resent will torment
It's odd
Your demeanor is this incomplete
Are their things going on
That have led to deceit
There's an unwanted tension
That isn't so...

Something to Hide
As he steps outside
To go about his day
There's an artificial smile
That she currently displays
The risque array of fabrications
Indicate love fades away
Portraying someone that you're not
Can't turn back as deceit's underway
Leading her quickly astray
With the foul-play that's conveyed
How can she begin
To look him in the eyes
And try to rely on the lies she's supplied
Not abiding by rules
No matter how hard she tried
There's no upside to this
So promptly decide
That these classified actions

Dynamic Mystery
Upon noticing her from afar
Momentum comes to a screeching halt
Perfection at its truest form
Not a single solitary fault
Inconspicuously yearning
To know if
She may eventually reciprocate
A mutual affection
Though,
Doomed to remain
A dynamic mystery
Begging the question
Of why
We'd never have a history
A swarm of
Alarming emotions
Have formed
But this is not right
And cannot transform
Into something
That will cause a
Disastrous uprising storm
Of chaos and heartache...
