POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
All my poems are MY original works from moments in my life.
Can You Feel My Heart
Can you feel my heart?
My heart beats loud with the echo of my soul
My soul is crying into the well of my feelings
My feelings are over run with joy
My joy is that I found you again
Can you feel my heart?
My heart pumps my love into the veins
my veins flow wildly with every drop
my drops hold the violent electricity
my electricity loves your every touch
Can you feel my heart?
My heart thumps with great anticipation
My anticipation shakes me down to my bones
My bones rattle with excitement
My excitement is when I see you
...

FEET
After I ran
Walking this path set before me
I am now homeless, for the first time
But I felt homeless all my life
My parents did not care where I slept
In the garage or on the couch
Maybe in the laundry room or no room at all
I lived out of a closet and had to wait until everyone left
So I can get to sleep on the couch
Now I ran and am walking a homeless path
I feel free but I am lost
I’m tired and hungry in this northern place
I’m watching my feet as I walk
Listening to In my Darkest Hour
I am in this darkness
I knew no one...

Ive ran out of tears
Growing up I have ran out of tears.
I have ran out because of so many fears
All my loved ones dying within those years
I can hear them all,still voices ringing in my ears
They have passed on,no more pain they are in
This world was enough,then end..fin
to paradise or heaven they did win
then end of all things,of flesh,of grief,of sin
I often wonder when would be my turn
to leave this place,to began a new learn
or come back here to live again,to return
to live this life again,in agony and burn
I lost a friend today but i didnt cry...

Sick Love
There was a woman who was my sick love
Her heart gleamed but her eyes were choking
She insisted to do it her way, mind set
Her skin was dead, wanting to be free
A dullard genius, is there such
She insisted to do it her way mind set
I tried to help but refused my touch
Had learned the hard way, street wise persistent
She insisted to do it her way mind set
The day I saw her picture as one saying goodbye
My heart cried my lungs collapsed
Into the void going headlong
She wanted this a release from so long
So I thought as I said a...

Little Dog
We have traveled far, you and I
From the first day I seen you I fell in love with you
I picked you up and held you close to my heart
And whispered in your ear, I love you
Little Dog
It was so funny with you and I
When you were in my arms and licking my face
Wiggling with happiness
You also ruined my shirts with your wet excitement
Little Dog
I always whispered in your ear
“If your mom gets tired of you, I won’t
I would be there for you always”
But your Mom is the best
And loves you with all her heart
Little...

Drag You Down
You were in my herd before I came back here
What a pathetic treat to find
You already plagued them, and were awaiting me
I was a nursing calf, defenseless to your tortures
Helpless and frail and afraid of you
One in the herd said I was a strong spirit
Who needed to be blocked and pushed down
So the head bull started to beat me
And hit me and tried to kill me
But I was a young calf, learning and observing
And resisting and getting stronger
You tried your best and failed
Because I saw the evil in the herd
They called me to join them, to turn...

Bipolar
Social outcast with this disorder
They say I am two people in one
Or one person with two in me
Of what two I have, I do not know
Someday I do not even know if it is I or the other one
The one I know is decent, friendly, and generally nice
The other I have seen its works, but I do not remember when I change
People say I yelled at them when I do not remember yelling
Girls said I fucked them when I do not remember the fuck that we fucked
I have seen blood on my hands when it’s not my own
I have seen the other in the mirror, but that is not me
Some days...

Unwanted Dog
You found me one day from out of the blue it seems
I was so excited that you loved someone like me
Once kicked and abused and beaten by a cruel master
You brought me in and gave me warmth
You hugged and cuddled with me
You held me in your warm arms at night as we snuggled
And said you will always be there
Then one day you brought home someone else
Then another a few years later
You paid full attention to them and less to me
Until I was left out in the backyard
My heart howls at night wanting to come back in
I yelp and cry, I scratch at...

Insanity
I get up from sleep and get ready for work
I drive in my truck, along with the lunch, a spoon and fork
I do this every day, I feel so berserk
My hands ache, my usual knee jerk
A person walks by and I smile with a smirk
When the bell tolls, I drive home in haste
Onto the interstate from the road I just raced
Where is my cell phone that I must have misplaced?
My dinner, I’m hungry, I’m longing to taste
And the loved ones at home whom I will have embraced
Time to go to bed, time seems to short
Enough of this rhyming, enough of this sort...

Outcast
I had no place to go
The walls crumbled around me
That fatefull evening
I was told to let go
Of the things I held onto
And crying all the way out the door
The thunder and the rain
Were in their place that day
Surrounding me,drownding me
Beating me with their lightning
To the feeling that they
Were made for me that day
I prayed for the lightning to kill me
End me please from my agony
Destroy this unwanted person
This thorn in everyones side
Get rid of me and toss me in the ditch
Who would care?
I cried so...

Please tell him I wanted you
To have someone like me
Please tell him I needed you
Like you need me
Please tell him I loved you
Like you love me
Please tell him I cared for you
Like you care for me
Please tell him I miss you
I hope you miss me
Please tell him I did no wrong
You did no wrong to me
Please dont leave my arms
But he took you both from me
Please dont leave my mind
Your names will stay with me
Please return the one thing you still have
You both took my me from me
All im left with is this...

Demented
to shed
my head
to wed
might find me dead in the bed
my heart
to stop
to drop
my soul is left to flop
the pain
it stays
it plays
with the stabbing in my back it filets
the scream
the dream
so mean
its all my own reckoning
and so it tells me
the soul it tells me
they all scream and tell me
I am a God inside of me
Inside out, when you gotta have a place that you got to be faithful
Inside out, when you got to have a place where you got to have to make your stand
Inside out, when you gotta have a...
