Dad(Description gives you info that sheds more on the poem)
I can read, dad
Pictures aren't books
I made a friend, dad
How did that happen?
I can walk, dad
Now you learn to run
I can speak, dad
Now you get your degree
We won, dad
You struck out once
I can score, dad
$100 never will
I'm good, dad
Too small to be great
I learned to write, dad
Next, the typewriter
I got an A, dad
If you didn't then I would be ashamed
I want to talk, dad
Well, I want a clean house
I want to achieve, dad
Got a long way to go
I think I tied my shoes,...

The Gravedigger
The Gravedigger
"Why are you digging an unnecessary abyss?" she asks,
"It is a grave for whom i cannot say!"
The man stands and recalls,
Too many times has given up his life,
Too many fears force him to stall.
The first cut ripped like a knife,
that does not mean so do all!
A cynical view does him his harm.
As content as he may seem,
Perhaps a look at his life would set the alarm.
A realization that there is a fear within him!
In maturity a windfall fell his way.
Not money! But another,
Which...

Will You?
Tell me this will you love him the way you loved me?
Your giggles on my stupid jokes
My presence brought you on your toes
Our talks never had a long pause
They were endless as if they had a cause
But if i am not around and i am gone for long
Tell me will you let him in, where i belong?
We argued late nights on religious talks
Gladly ignoring the ticking of clocks
I would get furious when you would compare my devotion
Yet another night, without a firm conclusion
But who cares, the arguments are part of us
Tell...

Upon another Shore
Upon another shore
sands colours of rainbow
hearts ripped so raw
living without being
I build sand castles
to watch as time erase
lived, loved and wandered on
I elaborated life
away to sights where no one see
away to thoughts un-cared no more
gardens in the glades
dreams of heaven
tombstone, unmarked, no word spoken
a seat on an empty place
silence reign as butterfly wings
ripples on air unseen
dusts of past shadows
glide by unmourned
sway the sea, white crested waves
travel...
sands colours of rainbow

gluttony
scuse me while i gorge
get my fill, lips drippin
pushed, two handed
sunk right in
don't mind me while i
stuff myself full
and come back for seconds
bursting and overdone
pardon my appetite
for consummate taste
je suis desolate, pour moi
lewd and carnal base
please, forgive my insatiable womb
begs for seed, milk of the moon
i'm filled with shame
as my flower weeps
like torrential rain in June
can you show me
the realms of lust i live
inside these veins
my will to give ...

I spend too much time in my own mind
I spend too much in my own mind
Mulling and musing
Contemplating, amusing
No one but the brain inside my head
Me, myself, and I
The man in the mirror
Go over every line
But it’s not any clearer
Asking why
Asking how
Asking if
I spend too much time in my own mind
Obsessing and assessing
It’s perplexing, what I’m addressing
Riddles asked and solved by only me
Me, myself, and I
The man in the mirror
Go over every line
But it’s not any clearer
Asking why
Asking how ...
Mulling and musing

No one but the brain inside my head

A Second Chance
Love walked in
Crossing the street as the light turned from red to green
A heart beat faster and lighter
A tempo of 6/8 time, a waltz started to play... dance
Days and nights became one
Nights spun into days
The sun always shown bright here in the night
The warmth of loves glow
The warmth of loves smile
Love walked out
Crossing the street as the light turned from green to red
A heart slowed
A dance no longer played
A stillness here in the day... night
Looking
Longing
A life now lived searching for...
Crossing the street as the light turned from red to green
A heart beat faster and lighter
A tempo of 6/8 time, a waltz started to play... dance
Days and nights became one
Nights spun into days
The sun always shown bright here in the night
The warmth of loves glow
The warmth of loves smile
Love walked out
Crossing the street as the light turned from green to red
A heart slowed
A dance no longer played
A stillness here in the day... night
Looking
Longing
A life now lived searching for...

Without you
My tears fall like acid rain onto the ground
Can you hear the sound
Of my heart beating faster than it should
I can't do this without you
My tear drops self express
Lack that dwells within
My speech baffering -
Through unspoken words that sink skin deep
Beneath faded memories
Tell me why
Are we running around a battlefield of lies
Expecting to find
Some kind of hope
Trying to make this work yet you hide behind
Your starlight
That alone
Hurts me the most
My tears fall like...
Can you hear the sound

Unsolved mystery
I dreamt that someone
from another dream
wrote a poem just for me
He read it aloud
when he thought I was sleeping
But I was only pretending,
listening,
steadying my breathing,
waiting
(It seems strange to dream
about faking sleep...)
I guess I was pleased
that he took time to write it
but I couldn't make it make sense
The words were neither
hot nor cold,
the emotion
inscrutable
I let the moment pass
without asking,
without even acknowledging
I awoke (twice) ...

I need...
I– I don’t know…
I just need something.
I don’t know what it is
all I know is something’s missing
like there’s a part of me that’s gone,
like there’s this empty space,
like there’s a little piece of me,
I somehow just misplaced…
I– I don’t know
I’m not sure what to do.
I know I’m missing SOMETHING
but as to what, I have no clue…
there’s just this voice inside of me
that urges me to look
to do my best to...

Skipping Tracks
Every minute we share is a blessing.
I'm trying so hard, but this is new.
I think we should commit to this.
I'm already in love with you.
And the Ferris wheel goes round again.
And I brace myself for this old game.
Quick reminder to this self of who I am.
Shake it off to live more of the same.
I wasn't speaking inappropriately to others.
By the way baby girl, I have a few suggestions,
Sprinkled throughout with a gentle critique or two,
But I added those sugary sweet lies by the ton.
And the Ferris wheel goes round...
