Marie Laveau
It's a pretty damn shame that I'm barely getting to know your name.
And if you gave me the chance
I'd swoop you off into another romance.
Woman you've got me in a trance,
Ponding how to slip you out of those pants.
I guess, we can start with just a slow dance.
Until, I can con you into a sixty-nine position or a doggy style stance.
In any other circumstance, I'd love to get to know you but the devil has me hooked like Winnie the Pooh feigning for your honey.
Miss Laveau, just let me know, how do I break this voodoo spell that you got me under.
And if you gave me the chance
I'd swoop you off into another romance.
Woman you've got me in a trance,
Ponding how to slip you out of those pants.
I guess, we can start with just a slow dance.

In any other circumstance, I'd love to get to know you but the devil has me hooked like Winnie the Pooh feigning for your honey.

For the Throughs
Through the highs and the lows,
Recoveries and struggles,
Through all the deceptions and all the lies.
Through seeing me through war,
The first time and the second.
For all the nights we've layed separately pondering why???
Our faith might have faltered.
But our loyalty never altered.
And that's why, this love can never die.
We may no longer stand side by side,
For you, I'll still lay down my life.
My wife, my best friend, I still owe you a fairy tale end.
Even if, you are no longer mine.
We still talk once a day, to make...
Recoveries and struggles,
Through all the deceptions and all the lies.
Through seeing me through war,
The first time and the second.
For all the nights we've layed separately pondering why???
Our faith might have faltered.
But our loyalty never altered.
And that's why, this love can never die.
We may no longer stand side by side,
For you, I'll still lay down my life.
My wife, my best friend, I still owe you a fairy tale end.
Even if, you are no longer mine.
We still talk once a day, to make...

Always
There'll always be mountains
for us to climb.
There'll always be seas
for us to dive.
There'll always be slopes
for us to slide.
There'll always be skies
for us to shine.
There'll always be more to things that we can't see.
And as long as there's air for my lungs to breathe,
I pray that there will always be a you and me.
for us to climb.
There'll always be seas
for us to dive.
There'll always be slopes
for us to slide.
There'll always be skies
for us to shine.
There'll always be more to things that we can't see.
And as long as there's air for my lungs to breathe,
I pray that there will always be a you and me.

Hands of Time
The seconds tick,
The minutes click,
And hours pass on by.
Days fade to weeks,
And weeks to months,
Then years seem just to fly.
Age is just a number, to track
the sense of what we call time.
Life is just a setting, to see what
it is we can come to find.
And at the end of all of this we hope to retain our memories and our minds.
Remember,
The present is what makes us.
The past is what shaped us.
And the future is yet to be defined.
The minutes click,

Fated Days
Thank you for being the woman who saw in me what I could not see.
Thank you for always being there to advise me in so many different things.
Thank you for understanding, even when it was clear you probably didn't really understand a thing.
Thank you for loving me unconditionally
and for being the best mom that you could be.
I miss watching you cook breakfast early in the morning as everybody else was still asleep.
I miss visiting just to sit with you in the evenings as you watched your beloved stories.
I miss how you'd get angry and call me every brothers...

Simply Who I Can Be
I .... am still me ....
Even though you can't see,
through my own pain and grief.
I .... still care to be ....
the exact same man you married before becoming a United States Marine,
so many years a go, but listen up lady.
I .... am truly ....
deeply sorry, for there's no ifs or maybes, it's not something that I can change back yet sadly baby.
I wish .... I knew how ....
It's just something that has to be for now.
So I'm .... begging you please ....
Don't yet walk out on me,
cause...

Butterfly Lies
I was taught better; Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie.
But sadly I admit, I could not be that guy.
Your simplistic beauty stunned me,
And that was just to the naked eye.
Your sex appeal was deeper,
Perhaps that's what made me shy.
I caught you stealing a glance,
And yet my confidence raced me by.
Tongue tied in a whirl of stumbling words just to tell you Hi.
You smiled and that was all it took,
to set the mood and rest my mind.
You said, "Hi, my name's Lori, and yes I'd be delighted to have dinner sometime."
Stunned, I replied, "That's...

In the World of my Lord
The Lord will return you once more,
For his flock we do go astray.
Then I will walk alone no more,
And together we will stay one day.
-Amen

My TooShort, My BiggySmallz, My ShortyLow
I am haunted by things worst then those that go bump in the night.
I tell myself, "In time it will be over, the morning sun will bring me light."
I feel your little fingers tugging at my hand.
I hear your voice whisper, "I love you daddy" over and over again.
Your laughter echos through the night's howling wind.
I can smell your hair with every toss and turn, or roll, in this empty bed.
I tell myself, "How could this be, it's all in my head".
Then I feel your little footsteps running down the hall, when will this torment end?
I...

No Title
We may not be brothers, but there we were, fighting side by side, in a never ending war.
The blood we shed, and the tears that fall, will not bring back those missing from the roster when called.
Time will tell, the stories of Heros who stood so tall.
But only you and I will know, how it is to be in a chaotic free fall.
I still feel the hurt when I heard you scream in pain.
How time stood still as bullets whistled our names.
An orchestrated symphony is how I choose to remember those days.
Like Beethoven Overture, except bloody and stained.
The blood we shed, and the tears that fall, will not bring back those missing from the roster when called.

Letter Paintings
When letters become words, and words become pain.
This is how sentences hurt, and paragraphs are phrased.
Stories are told, and will forever torcher the soul.
Thus is the mind, when it is allowed to over flow.

Time Traveler's Poem
As I lay myself down to sleep,
I remind myself of times, at which, I was so weak.
No man, Nor God was there when life seemed so bleak.
And for that, my soul alone, is mine to keep.
So Sandman, please, soon visit me.
So I may return to visit, my fondest, memories.
For only in dreams can I, do I, am I at peace.
I remind myself of times, at which, I was so weak.
No man, Nor God was there when life seemed so bleak.
And for that, my soul alone, is mine to keep.
So Sandman, please, soon visit me.

For only in dreams can I, do I, am I at peace.
