POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have been writing for years, and enjoy letting the thoughts flow out onto the page. I would love to write actual books, but have not dedicated the time.

From Thoughts to My Love
How do you tell the one you love the most
About all the thoughts inside your head
The ones that bring you so close
So close to the ending edge
The thoughts that take up residence
In a place that should be so sacred
That make you yearn and tense
For the blade of your razor or every pill
To find relief in any way, every way
From the thoughts that point out every mistake
Making you feel the need to go away
To a place over the bridge and through the gate
How do you tell them every flaw
That shows your worst side ...
About all the thoughts inside your head

From the thoughts that point out every mistake
Making you feel the need to go away
To a place over the bridge and through the gate
How do you tell them every flaw

Blind Love
From the deepest part of my heart, I choose you
From every inch of my body, I choose you
I ache from the inside all for you
My heart, my body, my soul
I choose you
A depression settled in and called my body home
Never ending, hope lost, gloom and doom
The thoughts to end it all were highest in this time of life
Every day just another day on this plane we call life
A life not worth the fight
One after another, back to back
The fight worsens each time I come to battle
Days never ending, longing for the touch of life ...
From every inch of my body, I choose you
I ache from the inside all for you
My heart, my body, my soul
I choose you
A depression settled in and called my body home
Never ending, hope lost, gloom and doom
The thoughts to end it all were highest in this time of life
Every day just another day on this plane we call life
A life not worth the fight
One after another, back to back
The fight worsens each time I come to battle
Days never ending, longing for the touch of life ...

Deaths touch
Here, my friend, is the story of deaths touch" The elder lady croaks
Long ago a boy made a deal with the devil
Hatred and anger overwhelming the young one, he would do anything to get away
But before I say what happens now, you must know what happened then
A boy of eight years grew happier by day, joyful, carefree
Wondering the woods day by day, coming home to a family of 6
Sharing a room with his two sisters and a brother
He knew not of the problems that come with aging
Every day after first meal, out to the barn he went
Feeding...

To Ashes We Fall
So long it took, though I now realize
The past of love was never true
It was a lust, but not for sex
A lust of love that never knew
The stakes it takes to shatter another
A desire to give and get
With the consequences to be a lover
A lover of sin, a lover to get lit
A high of love, but is only lust
Hormone crazed desperate fire
A fire within, with passion, with doubt, but must
The things I knew, the things I thought
What really is a lust or love
Without them to be one in the same
How can I possibly...

What We Seek
Wake to the sounds so softly
Responsibility calls so eagerly
Tiny hands and tiny feet
A smile upon the face of innocent
Reaching for my smile the little one grabs softly
Learning the differences of everyday life
Reaching for their own food
Everyday is a new day
Learned more and more each day
Soft sounds escape the little ones mouth
Laughing and bouncing
Running and jumping
Helping with day to day activities
Getting to play with one another
Love and joy spread around over time
Walking new family members with...

Times Facade
The past, the future, the present, it all works in mysterious ways
Time keeps ticking, yet feels to slow or go to fast
Memories blending in to make you forget whats happened already and what is happening
Maybe this is just a memory, for we get closer to death each day
They say we have a quick retake of our lives right before we die
Who knows, they know, everyone thinks nothing will happen
But the times we say "I'll do it tomorrow".... what if we don't have tomorrow
Maybe tomorrow is the one day too late to fix yesterdays mistakes
Lets do...

Past Echos
The wind is soft as it hums a tune through the vibrant fall leaves
The air chill as ice across my skin on this peaceful night
Soft foot steps echo across the wooded pathway
Endless harmony between the trees and earth as they join to make one
The soft tune of the wind pulls me closer
A bed of colorful leaves call to me
Laying, blending, being
Joined as one, I lay
Falling to a deep slumber, my mind races to find peace in a world of color
Endlessly laying in a field of echos from the past
Running in place, staying everywhere

If Only I Listened
A smile is deceptive, it's the eyes you need to seek
No one wants to see past the smile yet even then they know
Happy and full of glee, I put on the best of the show
My life is amazing, friends and family make it
But when even I believe the smile, my hope is lost
If my mind it pleas for help, my eyes will show
They would all surround me, worried
Though I can't see why
Horror fills their eyes, sorrow overwhelms
Why do they say they wished I was different
I would walk alone in a crowded room, my smile high
Greeting friends with...

The Lonely Tree
That soft sweet winter light that gleams across my eyes
Shadows bend and swirl along my body, the lonely tree hangs down all around
Chills flood over my body like waves on a shore
Moonlight covers the vast land that surrounds my body
My lonely mind wonders from thought to thought
The horrid thought of no one to feel, no one to give love
I sprawl across the ground, the chill of the cold grass slices through my soft skin
My mind visualizes a reality I never knew, sweet bliss
The moonlight blankets over top of my body
The shadow of the mind I once had...
Shadows bend and swirl along my body, the lonely tree hangs down all around
Chills flood over my body like waves on a shore

I sprawl across the ground, the chill of the cold grass slices through my soft skin

Sweet September Breeze
Gliding across my mind, the thoughts of my sweet serenity
But such thoughts never succeed to be reality
The kindness of natures push and pull against the shore of an ocean
Clearing the mind of thoughts unpleasant
Cleansing the body with the cool refreshing water
Letting myself be engulfed in natures way of life
Walking along far to nowhere
The thoughts creep along the walls of uncertainty
The horizon in sight but no destination in mind
Sweet September wind blows gently across my skin
The scent of on coming rain grows heavy
Darkened sky shows...

Hatreds Insanity
I've done it once more, self control no longer real
It burns through my mind, my blood, my soul
The urges to great, the hatred to strong
Insanity floods the scene, icy warmth flows over my body
The familiar smile creeps over my face, no facade could cover such emotion
Dripping down the length of my fingers, slow and endless
No amount of reason could help their case
Laying across the ground they rot, just where they were meant to be
Time slows as the memories come forth once more
The anger they showed no longer on their face, just the scared...
It burns through my mind, my blood, my soul
The urges to great, the hatred to strong
Insanity floods the scene, icy warmth flows over my body
The familiar smile creeps over my face, no facade could cover such emotion
Dripping down the length of my fingers, slow and endless
No amount of reason could help their case
Laying across the ground they rot, just where they were meant to be

My Hearts Chosen Love
Tell me baby, tell me it's alright
Light the fire baby, don't fight the light
Give your heart baby, I'll hold it tight
Take a moment baby, we'll make this right
Just take a moment, lets slip through the night
Take your hand and lay it on my chest
Do you feel it babe, my hearts racing
Time is ticking, always slipping away, don't let go, we'll make it all the way
See me standing next to you, I'm your queen as you're my king
Proud and happy, both because of you
Let us live like we think today is our last
Give the gift of love as if we were...
Light the fire baby, don't fight the light
