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

Like Birds Who Spread Their Wings
Feel the way the air caresses your skin and hair
Like a gentle whisper that soothes the soul
The sweet scent of nature can elate your spirit
When the taste of noble candor takes a hold
Like birds who spread their wings in the firmament
Flying free amidst fields of clouds and hazy dreams
The sound of liberty and peace is on their shoulders
Relishing in the ease of these motifs and themes
The coolness of open skies will uplift and energize
With breaths of life that feed the heart and lungs
Like hums and vibrations echoing through...

To My Knees
The dreams I had
Are nothing
Compared to
What I’ve been given
Once I got back up
Are nothing
Compared to
What I’ve been given
Once I got back up

meanderings of a wandering soul
look into my soul and find me turning in the sorrow
the truth comes upon me then evades me
once understood the lesson is then lost
when another facet of my personality takes charge
my essence will lie to you because I am afraid
no, don't touch, don't look at me there
I'm too vulnerable
you'll get the worst of me
proof I'm unlovable, turn away
I wonder are the broken pieces really me?
different sides of the whole
or are they more to the point
the hurt within
broken my soul shatters
then...

Shining Shadows
Charred and scarred
lodged beneath its mortal bars.
A surviving heart pumps along
life's strange juxtaposition
of joy and horror.
Happiness possess's shadows.
And sorrow sheds tears
stained with hope's glow.
Moonbeams dance with deadly dark.
Sunlight pierces a forest of black bark.
Peace is born from days that bleed.
lodged beneath its mortal bars.
A surviving heart pumps along
life's strange juxtaposition
of joy and horror.
Happiness possess's shadows.
And sorrow sheds tears
stained with hope's glow.
Moonbeams dance with deadly dark.
Sunlight pierces a forest of black bark.
Peace is born from days that bleed.

SOME OF MY WISHES
YOU
are the beginning,
middle and continuation
of my dreams and
wishes every day!
A FEW
of my dreams are:
I wish I could see
your beauty forever;
I wish your kisses
would never end;
I wish our arms
would never let go;
I wish we could talk
every day forever;
I wish we could
cuddle and neck forever;
I wish we could continue
to dare new things forever;
I wish we could respect and
honor each others wishes forever;
I KNOW
one wish that will come
true and that's our meeting
today...

Poem With No Title
I cried a river.
Yet, there were no tears to dry.
Just internal sighs.
Awaiting your nod,
Am I to stay or to go?
I’m strong but tired.
I can see the light.
You are but a shadow, now.
I had hoped for more.
We have everything.
You have always been missing.
I didn’t see you there.
Driven by duty.
Blinded seeking clarity.
Taken down by fears.
May we both be healed.
✝️

her apparition
come
show yourself,
get
out of
my mind.
let me
recognize
your waking
desire,
unspeaking
thin voice,
the seamless
breath,
guardians creep
in haunted
moments,
each lease
presents itself,
no remorse,
no regrets,
footsteps
never afraid
to trespass,
wandering back
into
that cloaked
underworld.

Renewal 2024
New Year
All the greeting and wishes
It gets tired
Yet it's what we have
A fresh start
Even if just symbolic
I'll take it
Why not?

THESE THINGS I KNOW
I know I am not your first choice
I'd be lucky to be your seconds
Even though I knew from the start you're the one my heart beckons
I know at times I may seem more of a handful and just not enough
Others times I am but, still I think I'm totally unworthy of your love
I know I have many insecurities and also have far too many flaws
But, I am right here to testify to you
I'd be so fucking damn worth it all
I know from the very beginning you
liked me a lot and actually cared
Time has not been on our sides
and often I...

fruit tree
i.
each word you spit
instead of convey
sits heavy as a grave
on your shoulders
we can’t carry the whole world
in our arms, especially
across barbwire beliefs
and minefields of thought
whispering ‘enemy’
it’s time for a proper burial
if we can reach the river
and lay it all down
without giving in
and killing one another first

honest desires
ask me again
what is it I desire from you
it's as simple {& complicated} as love
I desire your touch
in places much in need of cleansing
on flesh hungry for passion as deep as your imagination
caress the dark corners
until they glow with the burn of it
sink your teeth into my aching need
& leave your mark in its place
whisper into the gale of my tempest
& watch all movement still at the sound
I will hear you...above all else
I long to see you soar
wild upon the updrafts & currents of your dreams ...
