Solitude of Aloneness
They say it is not good for mental health to be alone
Danger no matter where there's an endeavour to seek refuge
It is only true for those who have problems with the solitude of aloneness who become lonely
Being able to deal with difficulty without distraction
Whereas the rejuvenation from these moments is incomparable because of how good it feels being in the sanctuary of silent serenity
Trouble can follow at every turn
The world has no comprehension of the positiveness that lies in the condition of being a loner
Nature of having an appetite for risk can...

Not Another Self He
I am definitely not the person I was yesterday
When I woke up today
My life did not change
For this I do not feel like I belong in a cage
Where my thoughts suffer along with my doubts
With inner battles raging about in bouts
I know that with every truth comes a way of understanding
Although this may not always hold me in good standing
I may look in the mirror
And frighten myself with shock and terror
As soon as my reflection is anywhere nearer
With that cloud having lifted the day becomes clearer
Reassured once again in...

Meant To Be
Not a bad start as you try to change your sheets
A recommendation that all couples should adhere to
Music and love will always be soulmates
Sage advice for those partners whose physical closeness has become a part of hidden historical archives
Even though they always dance around each other
Punishment that many a man would welcome except for the castration
But it is obvious that they both are destined to be together
Cruelty through domination for an unwilling submissive

Forging Ahead
Hard hitting
A man on a mission
The truth resonates throughout
The hard knocks that cause those falls strengthen character so that getting up is done subconsciously
The good that is in a person should not be wasted
No matter the obstacles as long as everything keeps on track
There are many who cannot appreciate what is in front of them
Getting up and not giving up never ends in a long arduous quest of living

Nature's Call
A lion would never ask for help even when in need of it
A very different perspective that speaks to so much whether seen or unseen
The nature of the beast is also its folly
The voice that pierces through these words placing them close to our reach
As people even with the spirit of lions the nature of community can not be escaped
The deeply observant eye that allows this place to be reached so clearly in the mind
Together we rise and fall
Whatever happens happens regardless of how someone may feel
A very different perspective that speaks to so much whether seen or unseen
The nature of the beast is also its folly
The voice that pierces through these words placing them close to our reach
As people even with the spirit of lions the nature of community can not be escaped
The deeply observant eye that allows this place to be reached so clearly in the mind
Together we rise and fall
Whatever happens happens regardless of how someone may feel

The Next Exhale...
Many layers of waiting in anticipation
This party in the mind just letting the ride carry those willing to be in those spaces and places
There's this sense of something about to happen
It is a seduction penetrating through thoughts
Yet it has a cliffhanger with an unfinished ending
It is just a matter of time before the word is heard and acted upon
The torture that comes from what is left unsaid
Here's to bringing it all down to earth
This party in the mind just letting the ride carry those willing to be in those spaces and places
There's this sense of something about to happen
It is a seduction penetrating through thoughts
Yet it has a cliffhanger with an unfinished ending
It is just a matter of time before the word is heard and acted upon
The torture that comes from what is left unsaid
Here's to bringing it all down to earth

In Search Of A Better Addictive Addition
So The Matrix is the new Wonderland
Seductive lips flowing with saucy aura of invitation
This was quite a tricky trip
Almost welcoming and deliciously desirable
Depending on the height of the summit it may or may not be a pity if it all has to end
Maybe a memory if not a shadow of a life past
When there is a sudden crash back to earth
Awaiting a fruitful future of abundance
Seductive lips flowing with saucy aura of invitation
This was quite a tricky trip
Almost welcoming and deliciously desirable
Depending on the height of the summit it may or may not be a pity if it all has to end
Maybe a memory if not a shadow of a life past
When there is a sudden crash back to earth
Awaiting a fruitful future of abundance

Floating In My Head Space
Words can do all that
An idea worth exploring
What do they put in prose these days
The ability to silence a woman with an orgasm
There must be a spell of the devil or some kind of sorcery
It might work but only in rare instances
Too much power in the hands of one man is dangerous
Then the screams will return without inhibition

They say
They say you need to find a lady
They say she has to be a slut in the bedroom and a chef in the kitchen
They say you have to let her know who is boss
They say don’t let her talk to you like that
They say make sure she always respects you
They say make her want you
They say fight for her
They say protect her
They say put her first
They say make sure she doesn’t cheat on you
They say treat her right
They say fulfill all her needs
They say be a man and grow a pair
They say men don’t cry but they do mostly in private ...

Misundestood
The eyes have become drier than a desert
Like it's not even about a woman
Pain and joy combine and are indistinguishable
It has this bigger than life feel to it
We live in times where breathing is through the wound
Hidden innuendo and insinuation well concealed
Living each day runs like ink on a page
More to it than meets the eye
Like it's not even about a woman
Pain and joy combine and are indistinguishable
It has this bigger than life feel to it
We live in times where breathing is through the wound
Hidden innuendo and insinuation well concealed
Living each day runs like ink on a page
More to it than meets the eye

Nurses
Those among us who do the thankless job of saving people’s lives
Waking up whether it's the morning or evening to answer the call of duty without fail
Facing life and death is a daily occurrence
Happiness and sadness come together in a convoluted concoction like oil and grape juice
These are the unsung heroes who see the worst of us at our most vulnerable moments
Uplifting deflated weak spirits in their darkest difficult moments
Their human touch healing beyond the physical and mental
Taking upon their shoulders the burdens of others
The lifeline that...

No Rivals, No Equals, Always Victorious
The planet earth will continue to exist despite humans
Where the battle is between earth and humans, earth wins all the time
Plagues have come and gone for centuries but the planet lives
People wanting to save the planet make it seem like the planet needs saving
This planet survives regardless of the actions of two legged arrogant millions of minions
The earth has been around for more than four billion years
The human species has been visitors on earth for around two hundred thousand years
Nothing can hurt the planet no matter the attempts to do so ...
