POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
My poetry speaks for itself
There Is So Much More
What happens to hearts,
that hit rock bottom.
What happens to them?
They say :"if your eye causes u to sin,
gouge it out."
If your heart causes you to drown,
shut it down.
Is there a tried and tested way,
to be better than yesterday?
Feelings feel,what they feel
Then they feel some more
Make the spinning in my head stop
Where did u put the door?
Let me be better than I've been
This life has no rule book
This is my own discretion.
Cosmic alignment
Infantile regression
Universal refinement ...

I won't let u know how its affecting me
I won't let u know how it hurts
In the silence,covered by a thousand controled words
I'll create the image of a smile,
and wave goodbye,
You deserve all the beauty of this world.
I can't be the one,
who does such a good woman wrong
Cursed by the selfless nature of this DNA
Cursed as I let her walk away.
I have to do what I feel is right
Even if its not easy to let her go from my sight.
I've loved you
I've thought of u,for hours on end
I've broke those doors open,

Timing is the key
You,
Me,
here,
now.
My heart leaps toward u in each beat.
Dangling from my sleave,
Fearlessly.
Woman with eyes like the wind
Gentle,vibrant,sweet.
You are everywhere and nowhere all at once.
Hard to pin down,
As vast as horisons
I hear you when nothing is said
Moving round every angle
With a tone,
That brings me out, from my depths
U wake me,
from eyes turned inward
From being gone
Where none can follow.
Delving into other worlds
Wispering into ears ...

Twinflame
My eyes have searched for u
They do not see at all
No matter how many times I blink
I am still blind.
Compelled by the feeling
that maybe if I turn this corner
Ill be closer.
I have no image to compare u with
I have nowhere specific to go
I only know,
u are somewhere
Because I am here
They do not see at all
No matter how many times I blink
I am still blind.
Compelled by the feeling
that maybe if I turn this corner
Ill be closer.

My eyes love seeing her
They are pleased
with each corner and twist of her
The way she bends her wrist
And puckers her lips
In a slow deliberate tease
That spills over with laughter
She puts the sparkle
In daily living
And sashay's like a natural wonder
Refusing to be affected
By what seeks to misinterpret her
A dainty love with so much strength
Presenting herself as a delicate butterfly
Contrasting a world of fickle superficiality
With Minimalist's ease
She just is.
You are the remedy

The Undertow
U exit without saying goodbye
and leave a trail of destruction in your wake
Their is only so much,
a heart can take
Until that levy brakes...
We build on in remembrance mode
And face reality with brave bravado
Acting up
Acting out
Because I have something to prove
With blown up chests
And swaggering legs
We strut on...
In this loosing streak,
I lost u
Now I'm in a rat race
for one days sake
Where worth,relates to work
And nothing is ever enough
On every other day
When...

Wayward
I go to sleep,
With a heavy heart.
Sinking my body into this bed.
Where is rest?
Battle after battle
The fight persists
I can't shake the tiredness
My bones are giving way under me
I'm clutching at straw
I no longer have the steam to go on
You survived
Because she loved you
I couldn't brake my ribcage open
For anyones idea of love to get thru
Its a constant shade of night
My eyes no longer know light
Without kindness human beings die
Who do I reach out to
Everyones a stranger ...

Of God
In between vows
We bowed our heads
In contemplation of God
That his example of unfailing love
Would be the light on the path ahead
In between vows
You were the greatest treasure I've ever had.
A gift un measurable in value
Truly
God has smiled on me
A crown on my head
A chin lifted to behold
The grace of unconditional love
The grace each heart needs more of
The worst sin
Is not seeking your kingdom 1st
Is not having the knowledge to be protected from consequence
To physical to do right. ...

Unworthy
You build her into a frail demigod
Without knowing her
You gaze in her eyes
But look past whats inside
You never see her
She gives u intimacy
But u cannot comprehend her
U cannot touch her
Cos u see
What you want to believe.
She opens her softness to you
And wraps you in her warmth
But u do not know how to receive and
Welcome her
She flows her skin over yours
And soothes the aching in your bones
But u do not know how to glorify her
How to compliment what she offers
You do not know love
Without knowing her
You gaze in her eyes
But look past whats inside
You never see her
She gives u intimacy
But u cannot comprehend her
U cannot touch her
Cos u see
What you want to believe.
She opens her softness to you
And wraps you in her warmth
But u do not know how to receive and
Welcome her
She flows her skin over yours
And soothes the aching in your bones
But u do not know how to glorify her
How to compliment what she offers
You do not know love

Oasis
The hunger and thirst does not end,
since your nourishment brought taste to my lips.
I walk this no mans land,
with thoughts of impending doom.
You appear like a mirage.
I stare in disbelief.
We are worlds apart
Yet you leave doors open for me to enter.
I am cemented here,
like a freeze frame.
Engulfed by her hipnoses.
Moving to a rythm,
that she comands.
Jumping,
when she says...Dance

Nothing to say
Who needs sleep
If rest does not exist,
Eyes shut,
and words float to the surface
You,
are so many, maybe's away.
My what if's are the reasons for these sleepless nights.
Blury foresight
Another place,some other day
Don't be so loveless
I've been tortured enough
Ticking clocks
Trying to catch up with minutes,
spent on others.

Suitcase
You loose yourself !
In the nonchalant ness,
of a hardened heart.
That thing in your chest is encased,
a deranged lil thumping pace.
Heart ache
So the heart becomes regulated
Just in case
It beats itself away
Pound
Pound
Beat
Beep
Away
"Nevermind" they say,
as if I have no concerns.
Let Love be enough.
Enough
Some things out of wack
I'm in these cracks
Aiming my jump,back
I need your love to grow
I need the truest kind of love
A blood in,blood out,kind of...
