Mysteriouly I appeared,

Reading between the lines

The Sheets resided, The tide was gone

The realities crashed,

Loyalty, Marriage melted with each touch

Those that deny there hearts

Fall prey to regret

The conference starte ... Read More

Call this love opera

The melody that radiates from you

Touches the darkest soul

You a priestess, tamed a savage, heartless creature

I caught you with my gaze,

I healed your loneliness,

I penetrated your light

Sipping the moonlight, only breeds the rarest flow

Sun ... Read More

Traveling in silence
cautionary looks
warn of discomfort

Going out of my
way, on my own
hoping to see
a friendly face

Akward smiles
sidelong glances
people afraid of
letting their guard down

Stare longer than
warranted and a smile
turns into a frown

Rocked side to side
hiding behind sunglasses
it is nighttime

Blocking out the world
with headphones
at least , till the batteries die

I'm dying to see 
inside your mind
inquisitive

The imperative to understand
impulses ,coupled with
responses to touch

Dance with me.
envy in the eyes
of people, not willing to act

Mingle with known
and unknown,
the desire to experience.

Gentle nudging, awaken
old feelings. That were dormant for so long.

Soft kiss goodnight.

Climb inside here and sit with me awhile.

Tell me about your first love,
Your first crush,
Your first kiss.

Explain to me the secrets that make you up.

What is that weakness you prize,
The strength that you hide?

Who was your best friend,
The one you lost,
The one you barely remember now?

In my life there has been good and bad

But finding a real true love is something that I never had

The initial approach seems to always be good

But quickly changes into the words I wish I could

Wondering why some relationships don't last

Maybe because two people are moving way too fast

It takes time for a real true love to grow

Cause after a while ones true colors will show

In the beginning things always look so sweet

But then some ... Read More

Where has my peace
and sympathy gone?

All that was good in me
fled with you.

I felt them slip away
they ran off to play with
vanity and self-pity.

Why do things have to be like this?
An eternal game of hit or miss.

The outcome is usually amiss.

I sat there

In the dark of the room where they left me

Cold and bewildered by what had just been done

Tears streaming down my face, with little effort,

Crooning their tall tales, of what they’d witnessed, to the slowly rising sun

You left you imprint on me, by bruising me.

With your fists you wailed on me

turning my insides into turmoil

Sucker punched my chest cavity to snatch both wind and poetry from me

Blackened my eyes, to cause me to see your perception of me…

You know
there comes a time when you have to stand up and speak
But at the same time you have to *impress* these people who you don't know and never met in your life.
And since I don't read minds yet
These words that are spoken are like slurs to you
these blurs to you go right over the top of your head
and you're supposed to be judging me
right?
because my metaphors seem all too dark the night is little to bright for you then
you cheer for the one who makes& ... Read More

Note: So I noticed some of my latest stuff has been a bit... sappy. I've put myself in some dire straits mentally, so here's one to uplift not just myself, but all my poets. BIG LOVE!

========================

There's much more to life than the death and defamation on the tube
I can smell the blood in the air, feel the grit in my shoes
Every earthy bit that bleeds into my soul it soothes
'Cause I'm hunting for the purpose that can match my moves

C ... Read More
