POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Pittsburgh inspired poet
That right there
That right there
Is as beautiful as
The wandering eye can see
Heavily talented
Keeping my mind on a whim
As I read
Deeply into a “LovelyOldSouls”
Life changing experiences
And her heart-wrenching pain
Mindless no names helped her attain
Not knowing she’s heaven sent
No comparisons
Extraterrestrial
Perfect in every dimension
One in a million,
A sexy African Queen
A gorgeous flower blossoming
In the heart of a lover’s dream
Is as beautiful as
The wandering eye can see
Heavily talented
Keeping my mind on a whim
As I read
Deeply into a “LovelyOldSouls”
Life changing experiences
And her heart-wrenching pain
Mindless no names helped her attain
Not knowing she’s heaven sent
No comparisons
Extraterrestrial
Perfect in every dimension
One in a million,
A sexy African Queen
A gorgeous flower blossoming
In the heart of a lover’s dream

Let "1 Rain"
Staring into the beautiful eye of the "RAIN"
Studying her extraordinary talents
But near tears, when she shares her pain
Inspired to no end, as she takes me
Through her life, scene by scene
Expressing the realism of her reality
Captivated by her stories, as I read deep
Scoping the intensity, as she shares the passion
She bleeds through her pen, so easily
Studying her extraordinary talents
But near tears, when she shares her pain
Inspired to no end, as she takes me
Through her life, scene by scene
Expressing the realism of her reality
Captivated by her stories, as I read deep
Scoping the intensity, as she shares the passion
She bleeds through her pen, so easily

Prisoner of the mind
For the last year, he'd been knee deep in grief
With no signs of relief, cause it's always brief
Every night tears soaked his blue satin bed sheets
Red eyed and half asleep, with a fainted heartbeat
Staring at the pictures of his beautiful wife
Speaking to her everynight, holding her memory tight
Reliving that disastrous night he lost his beloved wife
In a fatal accident, involving a big rid running the light
Plowing into her car at excessive speed, after losing control
Plunging her into the river, as her deafening...

Emotional servitude
Emotional servitude, has her feeling blue
Weighted down by the stress they put her through
Taking multiple pills, just to sleep at night
Highly depressed, and tried to overdosed twice
Bent on ending her young life, wailing soft preyer's
Feeling like nobody cares, like nobodys ever there
No shoulder to lean on, when broken-hearted, in tears
Realizing her biggest fears, lurking in the dark
Cutting into her flesh, Leaving permanent marks
infatuated with visible blood, dripping from her wrist
Edging toward the open window, staring down at the gray...

Left behind
We explored our vision of love makin'
Soaring with passion, in a naked fashion
A night that would last forever, in memory
memories that are near and dear to me
Cause I know what we had was real, magical
And touched the pits of my soul, beautiful
Like warm tears dripping from the heavens itself
Raining down, making my lonely heart melt
Until it was ripped apart, and scattered across the lands
Leaving behind a wave of emotions I couldn't understand
And months of misery, after realizing the truth
And about the other guy she ran too
Soaring with passion, in a naked fashion
A night that would last forever, in memory
memories that are near and dear to me
Cause I know what we had was real, magical
And touched the pits of my soul, beautiful
Like warm tears dripping from the heavens itself
Raining down, making my lonely heart melt
Until it was ripped apart, and scattered across the lands
Leaving behind a wave of emotions I couldn't understand
And months of misery, after realizing the truth
And about the other guy she ran too

Time had come
Standing here by the river, with my eyes closed feeling every drop of rain
Trying to wash away all the agonizing pain
Depressed as my endless thoughts of you cross my mind
Brokenhearted, reminiscing about all the good times
You’re soft sweet voice echoes in the back of my head
Killing me horribly wishing them pleasant memories were dead
Tears run rapidly down my cheeks as I visualize that gorgeous smile on your face
Why did you leave baby? Why was I so easy for you to replace?
You introduced me to a completely different world
You gave me...

No intentions
I use to see, that you were so in love with me
And now I see, we will never be
I use to be happy, thats painfully obvious
But you got everything you wanted out of this
Love affair, and the truth is so hard to bare
Can't sleep at night, shedding so many tears
Wishing you were here, and I can't breathe
I can't believe, you'll never come back to me
Leaving me to pay for others mistakes, with no lesson learned
Letting our flame die, with no intentions on a return
And now I see, we will never be
I use to be happy, thats painfully obvious
But you got everything you wanted out of this
Love affair, and the truth is so hard to bare
Can't sleep at night, shedding so many tears
Wishing you were here, and I can't breathe
I can't believe, you'll never come back to me
Leaving me to pay for others mistakes, with no lesson learned
Letting our flame die, with no intentions on a return

Missing you all
The pain of lost, is hard to explain
Shed so many tears over the years
For so many unforgotten names
Blowin' in the wind
playing pretend
Holding onto the illusion
Holding my head high
Feeling the warmth
That will never die
Preying I make it pass the sky
Far above the shining stars
Pass the moon, where my love ones lie
Missing everyone dearly
Longing for the day I get to see them all
The day I become, Earth's memory
Hoping I die for a real purpose
Loving those who were positive ...

Slowly changing
Nothing to mitigate the pain
Cryin' alone, tryin' to maintain
Changed my name, starting fresh
Blessed, but still stressed
Eyes teary, weary of those around me
Trusting nobody, to many bad memories
Choosing to stay in school
Separating myself from fools
Mind sharp as a blade
Education is the key, so I went stray
Riding alone, grown
Protecting myself, cause I have a baby at home
Cryin' alone, tryin' to maintain
Changed my name, starting fresh
Blessed, but still stressed
Eyes teary, weary of those around me
Trusting nobody, to many bad memories
Choosing to stay in school
Separating myself from fools
Mind sharp as a blade
Education is the key, so I went stray
Riding alone, grown
Protecting myself, cause I have a baby at home

Single life
My heart has been wounded
All she did was ballooned it
But I hide my cries
And quit wondering why
She love's telling lies
And why I even tried
To paint a perfect picture
Of this beautiful figure
That I held strong, for so long
Until our love was dead and gone
Wondering where it was we went wrong
silencing the radio, cuttin' her favorite songs
Even after all the things we've has been through
She cant measure my love, there's nothing to compare it to
She knew and blew a good thing
Threw me away like a old...

Bye baby
I fell madly in love and enjoyed the ride
Gave her my all, because she was my heart, joy and pride
Falling blind, behind the sunshine
Cause she eased my mind, like the taste of sweet wine
Caught up in a whirlwind, when we became more then friends
Sweeter then a swisher, perfect as a picture, a perfect blend
That came to an unforgettable end, reaching my defeat
Lost, trapped in her eyes, couldn't see the deceit
couldnt feel the concrete cracking beneath my feet
Fallin' down the slippery slopes, as she retreats
Leaving me behind with...

Striving for better days
Life is so complicated, sometimes I hate it
Surrounded by bricks, and heavily barricaded
Realizing my fears, causing warm tears to drip in pairs
Singing short prayers, serenading the cool air
Strolling slowly down a one way path
Liberating my thoughts, before depression come pass
Molesting my pain, creating a miserable life of sorrow
At the height of the night, spilling into tomorrow
As I go through different phases to find my way
Keeping my eyes open, striving for better days
Surrounded by bricks, and heavily barricaded
Realizing my fears, causing warm tears to drip in pairs
Singing short prayers, serenading the cool air
Strolling slowly down a one way path
Liberating my thoughts, before depression come pass
Molesting my pain, creating a miserable life of sorrow
At the height of the night, spilling into tomorrow
As I go through different phases to find my way
Keeping my eyes open, striving for better days
