I still remember
Picking up the pieces
Of my broken
Shattered
Heart
I still remember
The day you left this world
The day you left my world
You needed your pain to die with you
I look up at the heavens
I whisper your name
All gone
You left too soon
But here I am
Broken
Shattered, vowing
To remain in solitude
Of my broken
Shattered
Heart
I still remember
The day you left this world
The day you left my world
You needed your pain to die with you
I look up at the heavens
I whisper your name
All gone
You left too soon
But here I am
Broken
Shattered, vowing
To remain in solitude

Lonely gloved hands
My gloved hands
Touch those of strangers
Everyday,
It is what I choose to do
Often, like right now
I need someone
To touch mine
...without the protection of gloves
As I hang up my coat
Close the door behind me
And head home
I am wondering
Who will be the
One to hold my hand
And sing my sad
Soul to sleep tonight
Touch those of strangers
Everyday,
It is what I choose to do
Often, like right now
I need someone
To touch mine
...without the protection of gloves
As I hang up my coat
Close the door behind me
And head home
I am wondering
Who will be the
One to hold my hand
And sing my sad
Soul to sleep tonight

A kiss to the heavens
A lonely dinner
For one
With memories
Of hope
Of love
Of the will
To feel
Everything
Anything really
Loss
Grief
Hurt and anger
Incredible regret
But just to know
I have loved
I was loved
I am still here
Sipping regret
In golden sunsets
Until the moon
Changes my mood
And reminds me
That I have this night
As lonely as it may be
To believe that
The sun will greet me
With a sneaky smile
As I blow a kiss
To the heavens
For one
With memories
Of hope
Of love
Of the will
To feel
Everything
Anything really
Loss
Grief
Hurt and anger
Incredible regret
But just to know
I have loved
I was loved
I am still here
Sipping regret
In golden sunsets
Until the moon
Changes my mood
And reminds me
That I have this night
As lonely as it may be
To believe that
The sun will greet me
With a sneaky smile
As I blow a kiss
To the heavens

In your own special way
Between the rush
Of life
We have to make time
For those we care about
Those we think about
Those who touch our hearts
In our own special way
Make time
A kind word
Holding hands through difficult times
A quick message
It really doesn't
Matter...darling
Just simply let that
Someone special know
Of life
We have to make time
For those we care about
Those we think about
Those who touch our hearts
In our own special way
Make time
A kind word
Holding hands through difficult times
A quick message
It really doesn't
Matter...darling
Just simply let that
Someone special know

A little old lady (part 2 - of infinity)
I got up before the birds
Even before my alarm
It was like being a little girl
The day before christmas
We agreed on 9am
But at 8.30 I was parked outside
A little rundown apartment
A shining diamond inside it
The front door opens
I jump out,
Oh how I missed that beautiful smile
I buckle her in
Precious cargo
Slowly approaching her favorite coffee shop
Her eyes bright
With a little pink blush
No hair out of place
She tells me about her old cat
Over coffee and...

Human
We will gather
All knowledge
From the place
Called womb
Fertile stems grew in the ovary as we swam in the luke warm foster waters
Hearing the music through the navel cord, where stillness and waves is what we are.
And who we are floats from them. Perhaps even this is the best nine months of our life.
From the Higher octaves
We joureyed
To the middle worlds
They called it Earth as noone knew Her. Perhaps she was an orphan of creation.
It was said, that to Her we belonged. And...

Finding healing
It has been over 34 years since I lost myself to the corrupt hands of my abuser. But I have made a decision which hopefully will return a piece of my soul to me. Something that will also keep other children from being broken, or maybe make it possible for them to heal. My gut tells me that a pedophile who has not been caught is still abusing children. Well I know where my abuser lives and I am writing the local States Attorney to see if an investigation can be opened up into his affiliations to youth organizations. I have thought about this and even though a part of me would get...

Dork of the Week: Elusive Sleepfall. Yay! (Inspired by true events).
WebMinstrel: Welcome, we've created a new honorary category, Dork of the Week, and this weeks winner(and I suspect someone who will be the recipient quite often) is: Elusive Sleepfall, who has been a member for a couple of weeks(even though it seems interminably longer), and writes in a variety of forms, including: Stupid, Dull, and What the Hell Does That Mean??.
WebMinstrel: Matt, your writing seems to be...terrible, yet mildly nauseating. What's your secret?
Matt(Elusive Sleepfall): Well, I'm kind of a moron, so imbecility comes easy to me. I also have a degree in...

a Hunters moon tale (1)
One year waded through its own history ,
its footsteps gone behind the violet surface sky.
A pamflet written with bloodred fingers in the ink of antiquity.
I had become human once more.
A night was given to me in which I faced survival beyond solidarity.
Betrodden path of silence. The inquisition of time, my heresy of being me.
I flew beyond the ashen past.
The mirror reflecting a black eyed deity with sore skin. A lioness roared
from within. Her auburn manes
adorned her face.
You tore the flesh of us, you tore my face into...

The Adventures of Hoppity Hop (The Final Adventure)
3:00 am I wake to you passed out
in the corner where you slept
changing your food and water
I noticed there was no movement
your chest wasn’t moving
some see their animals as pets
to me you were my son
can’t have kids of my own
so when I held you for the first time
it made me smile
and everyday after
I was always happy to see you
you were hopping with joy
waiting for me to pet you
no one else could hold you
you never gave me any trouble
I feel bad, I could of done more
