So you sailed away, Into a grey sky morning
Now I’m here to stay, Love can be so boring
Nothing’s quite the same now…

Left Behind
Posted in Poetry, tagged abyss, Poetry, Tears on November 30, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Deeper and deeper into the abyss I sink
Knowing every breathe I take may be my last
I search in the darkness
Reaching out
And realize
Once again
I am alone
The crows are singing
Their song of night
And I know
That it won’t be long
Before the last spark of light
Has been extinguished
And the darkness
Is allowed to take me
Is anybody out there
to hear my [...]
Until You Return
Posted in Poetry, tagged Lonliness, Poetry, Waiting on November 30, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
In the quiet solitude of my mind
I sit and ponder
what could have been
The memories of you
flood my senses
like so many tears
I reach for you
you are no where
though your presence surrounds me
I call for you
the empty echos of my cries
return to [...]
Wings of Forgiveness
Posted in Spiritual, tagged Forgiveness, India Arie on November 30, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Somewhere in the midst of all the chaos that has surrounded my life these past few months I have found my center AND my forgiveness. Love and forgiveness start from within. Release the past, release the pain and tell yourself that it IS okay to feel hurt AND forgive. It is in that release and [...]
Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies
Posted in Poetry, tagged Lies, Poetry, untruth on November 30, 2008 | 1 Comment »
you wrap your lies in pretty boxes
you tie them with a bow
Disguising yourself from yourself
but the truth is in the know
You hide behind the smoke and mirrors
wave the magic wand
A magician you are not
you’re time will soon be gone
Enough rope to hang yourself
A fool who’s unaware
Your demise is close at hand
a fate you’ll have to [...]
Where Dreams Await

Lay with me under the stars
Talk to me of dreams
Weave me a tapestry of your words
Like eloquence wafting softly on a breeze
Caress me with your intellect
Let me feel your mind with my soul
Paint me a picture of unadulterated beauty
Unmarred by the space between us
Drift away with me on the sea of love
Where time is of [...]
A Dream Unrequited

Hope shines bright on the horizon …though it may be too late Tattered and torn I push along Every revolution possibly my last
A change is gonna come but the need long forgotten
Status quo rings through the air as the night screams in solitude the blind turn a deaf ear and the deaf [...]
A Fool’s Charade
Posted in Poetry, tagged Charade, Fool, Jester, Poetry on November 30, 2008 | 1 Comment »
The lights are dimming
the crowd has gone
the curtain falls
on your one man show
No applause
no encore
just the silence of disdain
and the deafening clamor of distrust
The echoes of your voice
resound off the walls
the charade of your performance
now apparent to all
Fool hardy and unaware
you repeat your lines
to none
over and over until you believe
“If a tree falls in the [...]
Reflections of a (not so) Lost Soul

She looks in the mirrora reflection unkown
The lines of timestare back at herlike a road map to her soul
Her imagea ghost of things rememberedA past not long forgotten
A glimmerjust behind the darkness
In the distancethe voices callWe are hereWe are here
Arms reach outvoices assuage
If only she would recognizethat “she” is waitingwith those that love them both
