A MENDED HEART ONCE BROKEN
As with all things in life we have to sometimes even if we don't think its important or necessary for us to have to examine the true depth of our heart and soul, for we have to stop interpreting what something is suppose to mean when spoken with words, for we must ask thyself what do they really mean as we pay more close attention to someones actions instead of there words.

It's A Heart Thing
It’s a (heart) thing
Enchanted flowings of her essence
I know it’s a hard thing
To lay ahold the rapture of the deep
Grasping illusions of the light
Flickering on the sides of sunken ships
How it feels to refuse the demise of what could have been
Letting go of the passion that once gave death meaning
And in turn life as well
It’s a heart thing
The swelling up of volcanic proportions
Idolizing what you now know is no more
But a grave
A sounding board of rhythmic echos
Warring within its hollowed chambers
I know it’s...

Spouses, Partners and Dream Lovers
I neglected the fantasy
when the shackles of reality
required my complete attention
to put the baggage
of a previous disappointment
behind me
We hadn't spoken
since I was asked to leave
and that stung
but despite all reservations
and the dismay of my current partner
the former reached out
Ignoring the initial communication
and secretly speculative of the motive,
it seemed I would never summon
to resolve this feud
in which I would always be the victim
But when things stay with you, ...

Declaration of War
Darling...
From this moment forward... I've decided to sacrifice my previous existence on the altar of everything I feel for you; the happiness and truth that you and I discovered together this past eight months, that is something worth holding onto, and if need be, fighting for and I intend to do both.
With a certainty that only love can manifest; I sincerely believe that between the both of us, if we worked in tandem, as a team, we could and would have the ability to transcend the boundaries of our limitless potential. Not to mention, the strength to embrace yesterdays...

A SAND BOX TRANSITION
Can I rap to you for a second as I express my most inner thoughts about how I truly feel and think about you for I know I am not much for words to say but I know I have to do what I need and want to do, if I am to prove how much I love you from my body and soul even my mind and heart for you changed me from the man I use to be for I no longer do I walk the streets at night or sit up in the darkness of night running through the thoughts in my mind looking for what I thought I needed in my life. ...

Live Your Days Inspired Anew*
( an acronym for LYDIA )
I heard to live your days inspired anew;
A woman who had been attacked said so.
A man broke in her home & beat her blue,
Set her aflame, she leaped & jumped below.
Two stories, bare & smoking, hit the stone,
Was lifted to a hospital or die.
Induced coma, five months, but ne’er alone;
The love of fam’ly, friends & staff stood by.
At last when she awoke she could not talk,
Or move or think with battered injured brain.
To learn once more to speak & then to walk;

Bourbon Street Lady
Bourbon Street Lady
I pop the cork on a Chardonnay bottle dreaming of drinking our sorrows away till my wine blush cheeks warm. I lean over the balcony railing gazing down at Bourbon Street with the blues my only hope for sleep this night when neon prayers aren’t enough to keep the raven at bay who watches me with steely eyes. Marsha strips into the lingerie loneliness of a once starry-eyed Catholic school girl who wandered the hallways of “Our Lady of Perpetual Penance.”
She continues, “You know on nights like tonight I feel awful about how I earn my bread. My patrons...

Think of You
I’m alive, what a weird thing that is
Wonder why I have to experience things tragic
Don’t remember ever asking “can you see if I can manage?”
Or being asked to struggle through the pain and the damage
Guess I’m here regardless so I guess I’ll do my best
Guess the only way to live is see this as a test
Guess I could compare my thoughts to others’ of success
Guess I best prepare myself for when I’m gonna rest
anxiety and stress, they’re never far away
The biggest hurdles that I have to make it past each day
I want to live in peace...

Bemusing Enigmatic Inquiries For The Deific On High
font=Courier]
For none of us knows what it was like to bear such a burden cross as He did-
Neither can any of us know what it is like to have been adorned a thorny crown, as He had forced upon His head-
Nor can we imitate the holes where the nails nailed into His hands-
Yet there are more than a few-
Who knows what it feels like to carry around a great albatross of suffering anguish -
Who are hexed with being tormented by a constant bothersome impediment-
And there are far too many who have holes in their souls, hearts, and their humanity-
Which...

TRAPPED IN A WORLD OF DARKNESS
As the sunshine slowly disappears from the skies only to be replace by the shadow of the darkness of night AS IT OVER TAKES THE DISTANCE SKIES, it is here within this very moment of space were there is no time my mind wonders and ponders, upon my most deepest thoughts that walks and travels through the stairways and chambers of my mind and heart and soul touching and pulling at the deepness of my silents with tears I cry in silence alone.
