POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I live in world of misery and suffering only place to be free is in my own mind for it is there where i spend my time, my thoughts are written with no ending always pending for im tormented beyond belief but i do not ask for any help or relief.
A walk to remember
My feet are worn,
My hands scared from the thorns
Beaten and bruised
Light are my burdens
Beauty is always certain
Follow the beautiful melody
The maze is not melancholy
The whispers of love become enticing
So comfortable and inviting
The further I walk the more I fall for you
I will never be the same
I follow the serenity of your voice
Overwhelming my senses leaving me with one choice
Keep walking still not talking
Feet callused no longer in pain
My hands once torn from the thorns
Now strong and not worn ...
My hands scared from the thorns
Beaten and bruised
Light are my burdens
Beauty is always certain
Follow the beautiful melody
The maze is not melancholy
The whispers of love become enticing
So comfortable and inviting
The further I walk the more I fall for you
I will never be the same
I follow the serenity of your voice
Overwhelming my senses leaving me with one choice
Keep walking still not talking
Feet callused no longer in pain
My hands once torn from the thorns
Now strong and not worn ...

The ties
The world can be a powerful, unkind place,
But when I am with you I do not care about my fate
We walk side by side because we do not hide,
Hide the love we have for one another
People will try to pull us under
Separate us, and make us wonder,
Wonder if we are meant to be
They will try to consume like a disease,
We are to strong you and I,
The world cannot see that we are free of misery
The best of our lives has not yet arised
When you find yourself,
you find another human being to share this with
I will...

Guided relaxation
There is a world within ourselves
Beauty beyond our wildest dreams
So grand its hard to conceive
Taken to a place where dreams become real
Up becomes down,
Loud becomes sound
Take a deep breath
Inhale exhale
Close your eyes as we dive inside,
Inside your mind
This is where we reach cloud nine
Spinning around and around
Your thoughts begin to fade
Your mind turns grey
Lost within itself
You worry crying out for help
Never thought this could be I'm stuck in purgatory
Wait do not fear you...

Dead silence
Awakened to a strange new place
Right beside me is a strange new face,
My immature tendencies have forsaken me
Scared of what we have done
I ask her did we play Russian roulette
Just without the gun
You did not mind last night
I did not think twice
I looked at her with concern
You need to leave I better not have a disease
Used and feeling abused she left in disrespect and regret
Calling a place that I know all too well
Walking with my head held down
I look at the clerk and she only frowns
Back again I...

The search
I have grown tired over the years
I do not shed many tears
Raised from humble times
While I was young I still committed crimes
Could not afford to go to the pool
So me and my cousin would act a fool
Sneaking out to ride our bikes
Being at the reunion going on hikes
Love was all around I never frowned,
Fishing with my grandpa and acting like a clown,
laughing all day sometimes crying when they would not let us play around
The times have changed we no longer see each other every day,
once a year we get together,
though the...

beauty from darkness
Beauty can be seen
Seen through the eyes of human beings
Most of us see a world of misery and suffering
But through my eyes you will see I live without a care,
Building a life that is modest and fair
Out of my darkest days I was reborn
Reborn from the hatred within
Facing my sin, I battled to win
Win back the life that I once knew
Where I lost it, I did not have clue
It was then that I realized that to become a better you
I have to go back to face the things that made me black and blue
The darkness that once consumed...

inspire
Give me your hand
as we walk through the sand…
let me speak to you to help you understand
the pen is my life and the paper its wife.
They go together like a hand and a glove;
they create words that inspire.
See: the beauty of this passion
is the ability to make any man have nobility.
I can be your knight on a horse
or your demon that shows no remorse;
I can paint a picture with these words that transpire.
I write because I can;
I write because I am a fan,
a fan of beauty in every shape and form.
No matter how dark or tormented,...

HIDDEN-Marcos Varela
How i smell the sin as they walk in
Not knowing she is the fifth one to come,
Come inside my house she will be the perfect fit
Then maybe ill decide to quit,
Do u live alone i say yes saying to myself unless u count the bones
Please take a seat would u like something to drink
No she says all she can do is eye my bed
Asking can we get down to business
I have things to do
Why yes follow me to the room smiles is what i am
For she cannot see my unholy plan
I tie her to the bed no time to waste must do this with...
