Hope
Abused child
the misery shows
thinking of the past
born in a prison
with no piece of mind
runs to the light
hopeful dreams
tomorrow's a new beginning
the misery shows
thinking of the past
born in a prison
with no piece of mind

MY MUSE RESURRECTED ME
My heart was bound
in chains feeling the
pains of losing you.
The attention given
by others didn't heal;
only served as a reminder.
Offers of endless pleasure
by the Nymphs on Erotic
shorelines were futile..
THEN!
OH THEN!
CLIO, the daughter
of Zeus, the
Muse of History; one
of the nine Muses,
came to me in a vision
and beautiful poetry;
with a message of hope..
I came alive as she rang
my doorbell. OMG! MY
Muse resurrected me back
to erotic adventures never
dreamed of. I bow daily...
in chains feeling the
pains of losing you.
The attention given
by others didn't heal;
only served as a reminder.
Offers of endless pleasure
by the Nymphs on Erotic
shorelines were futile..
THEN!
OH THEN!
CLIO, the daughter
of Zeus, the
Muse of History; one
of the nine Muses,
came to me in a vision
and beautiful poetry;
with a message of hope..
I came alive as she rang
my doorbell. OMG! MY
Muse resurrected me back
to erotic adventures never
dreamed of. I bow daily...

Proof of Life
In the westward sky is a crow's clear caw.
A visceral proof of life.
That there joyously exists more than just our strife.
It soared mystically deep into the baby blue
and fluffy white blissful unknown.
In the north sky
gathers a small murder of crows,
with their chaotic excitable moan.
A folktale goes that the crows congregate
to hover and decide another crow's fate.
Place a scavenger of death in a vast cheerful sky.
You realize a great many days are void of a why
They are just proof of life.
So feel alive!
A visceral proof of life.
That there joyously exists more than just our strife.
It soared mystically deep into the baby blue
and fluffy white blissful unknown.
In the north sky
gathers a small murder of crows,
with their chaotic excitable moan.
A folktale goes that the crows congregate
to hover and decide another crow's fate.
Place a scavenger of death in a vast cheerful sky.
You realize a great many days are void of a why
They are just proof of life.
So feel alive!

Just Go Away (My Husband The Zombie)
It wasn't supposed to turn out this way.
A blissful marriage it once had been
Then he was suddenly dead and laying in a casket in the ground.
Now, he's a Zombie of the most gruesome kind
Who doesn't even recognize my face
The accident happened during our trip to the mountains.
Where he slipped and had fallen off a cliff
dying instantly when his body hit
the rocks at the bottom of the cliff.
Now, here he is trying to bust down my front door
I just can't live this nightmare any more
He got inside before I...

Flicker
sorrowful soul what have I to do with you?
In sacred keep
weep not for the morrow
he is busy holding up starlight
Flickers the choice
to be or be damned
regrettable fate
A vessel wrought for destruction
manifest destiny wills it
So worry not for eternity shining
My freedom scorned
imprisoned in my mind
sanctuary in the blue of it
Inside me I weep for your heart
barren of hope
craving what you can't touch
A mirage at best
an illusion shifting in your gaze
Stars...

Reveal Me
never loved another so deeply
for a friendship held so briefly
though I may just be confusing
this desire for my musings, but
then again, I know deep inside
my heart, you timelessly reside
reveal me, for the lover you see
instruct me in the ways you weave
for a friendship held so briefly
though I may just be confusing
this desire for my musings, but
then again, I know deep inside
my heart, you timelessly reside
reveal me, for the lover you see

"firewood" (the blaze)
you once stood
young and vibrant,
watching over the landscape,
but age took its toll,
and one final year
you fell,
gathered up,
your arms and legs
were folded and stacked,
brought inside,
you were placed
into your crypt,
we sat in front of you,
the funeral pyre
acknowledged your life
as your soul slowly burned,
your whispers
leapt out and teased the cold
around us,
with one last touch
you pleased the night.

If it's Meant to Be
It’s difficult to accept that everything has been predetermined
As if our paths were already chosen and we just fulfill the destiny
And even if midway down the road we change the way it goes
Was the change too already planned just like it was meant to be?
Some are born into poverty but will strive to get out of there
While others with riches and resources decide to be miserable
Some will acquire the drive to change and better their lives
While others leave it to chance staying stagnant and pitiful
The law of attraction can be very real ...

THE CRASH
I truly do not want to be one to sit around and complain
but stress it seems to sometimes never seems to end
I'm always praying for the blessing of any of my miracles
yet they never ever seem just around the next bend.
Some days I feel as that I am getting much better
and others I feel as if I am losing and drowning again
for when waves feel like they're crashing all around
I wish I would have learned better how to swim.
My emotions are like the ever churning ocean
for I am only the co-captain of this my life's ship
and I have yet...

Riding on the Tail of Destiny
Often we think of fate as life's grand design
that we are predestined for a certain destination
although the journey twists and turns in the unknown
but we think of it as fruits of what was sown
maybe destiny is a vessel we ride on
not knowing to where until a path begin to form
hoping we don't fall before we arrive
and live out all the fantasy of our life
living through choices made like ripples in a stream.
turbulence of life bucking us out into the storm
to persevere is to survive until the next crests
hit us again before...
that we are predestined for a certain destination
although the journey twists and turns in the unknown
but we think of it as fruits of what was sown
maybe destiny is a vessel we ride on
not knowing to where until a path begin to form
hoping we don't fall before we arrive
and live out all the fantasy of our life
living through choices made like ripples in a stream.

to persevere is to survive until the next crests
hit us again before...

Benevolent Benefactor
There is no energy
except what you extend
via action or thought
The Universe
is a benevolent benefactor
who returns only
what you emit
No more
No less
except what you extend
via action or thought
The Universe
is a benevolent benefactor

No more
