POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I started writing at a very early age to release hidden emotion. And over 25 years later I still find myself writing til the sun comes up. I don't care about being fancy. I only care about sharing the true me.

the end
It all ends
Everything
All the smiles
All the pain
It all ends
So why do we cry?
Life stops in the blink of an eye
Day always falls to the night
It all ends
Embrace it
Embrace that with every ending
Comes a new beginning
A new starting point
To leave everything behind
And fly into the now
Everything must end
Let's start a new chapter
Everything
All the smiles
All the pain
It all ends
So why do we cry?
Life stops in the blink of an eye
Day always falls to the night
It all ends
Embrace it
Embrace that with every ending
Comes a new beginning
A new starting point
To leave everything behind
And fly into the now
Everything must end
Let's start a new chapter

Morning
And just like that, the darkness is gone...
From the world, as well as my heart...
What a difference a prayer makes...
From the world, as well as my heart...
What a difference a prayer makes...

Breath
Where's the moon
As I sleep in a song
Does it dance with you
Above the rivers end
Wash the canvas clean
Start from anew
Drink this paint
And breathe your masterpiece
Why hold it in
Why keep it in the dark
Wings were meant to fly
Meant to shadow
The unfortunate on the ground
Where is the moon
Does it hide with the stars
Kissing darkness with a wink
As we search near and far
We ride the dragon
To the untouchable end
And learn to breathe fire ourselves
A flame of creation
Tearing nothing down
Giving a plain...
As I sleep in a song
Does it dance with you
Above the rivers end
Wash the canvas clean
Start from anew

And breathe your masterpiece
Why hold it in
Why keep it in the dark

Meant to shadow
The unfortunate on the ground
Where is the moon

Walk
Walk beside a ghost
That has never truly lived
That has seen only what it wanted to
Eternally blind to the truth
A star burnt out long ago
That held me with its light
That held me blind
Yet no more shall I sit
No more shall I rest
Under a ghost
Under the darkness
I walk alone
Under the pale moonlight
With nothing to hold
And everything to share
Yet through my path
Of heaven and hell
I still find no one but the ghost...
That has never truly lived
That has seen only what it wanted to
Eternally blind to the truth
A star burnt out long ago
That held me with its light
That held me blind
Yet no more shall I sit
No more shall I rest
Under a ghost
Under the darkness
I walk alone
Under the pale moonlight
With nothing to hold
And everything to share
Yet through my path
Of heaven and hell
I still find no one but the ghost...

A Broken World
Stars above a broken world
Light a broken dream
A broken path we also walk
With tears forming a stream
Set to stray from sunset hope
And storm into the night
Losing faith of times before
Sadly, we lose the light
Stars above a broken world
Seem so far away
Leaving all the rest to roam
Hoping we will stray
Sands of time go sailing by
And now begin to fade
Will the search end with a loss
Leaving us in the shade
Stars above a broken world
Have heart so heavy and dry
Take us down upon our knees
Life goes flying by...
Light a broken dream
A broken path we also walk
With tears forming a stream
Set to stray from sunset hope
And storm into the night
Losing faith of times before
Sadly, we lose the light
Stars above a broken world
Seem so far away
Leaving all the rest to roam
Hoping we will stray
Sands of time go sailing by
And now begin to fade
Will the search end with a loss
Leaving us in the shade
Stars above a broken world
Have heart so heavy and dry
Take us down upon our knees
Life goes flying by...

A rose in water
A rose in water
What a beautiful deception
An illusion entangled with love
We give untimely death
To those we care for the most
A rose in water
Can never grow another day
Unnatural partnering
From where it belongs
To where we would have it
How selfish an act
Water
Prolonging the inevitable
There for a sense of hope
To ease Our pain
Only to wither away
Why try to change what is born wild and beautiful?
Why try to change me?
But unlike the rose
I choose to be free...
What a beautiful deception
An illusion entangled with love
We give untimely death
To those we care for the most
A rose in water
Can never grow another day
Unnatural partnering
From where it belongs
To where we would have it
How selfish an act
Water
Prolonging the inevitable
There for a sense of hope
To ease Our pain
Only to wither away
Why try to change what is born wild and beautiful?
Why try to change me?
But unlike the rose
I choose to be free...

Moonlight Creek
He plays upon the Moonlight Creek
As pure as once I
A mirror image he tries to seek
Though days keep sailing by
To hold the gold he has to try
But unable to understand
Throughout the time he'll sit and cry
No one to hold his hand
Now all alone he must stand
And watch the others play
To find himself a way to land
Through another cold day
Heart fights fierce trying not to stray
The tears run down his cheek
No more words are left to say
Upon the Moonlight Creek...
As pure as once I
A mirror image he tries to seek
Though days keep sailing by
To hold the gold he has to try
But unable to understand
Throughout the time he'll sit and cry
No one to hold his hand
Now all alone he must stand
And watch the others play
To find himself a way to land
Through another cold day
Heart fights fierce trying not to stray
The tears run down his cheek
No more words are left to say
Upon the Moonlight Creek...
