Poetry / A Safe Place
Version 1

What happened to us, where did it all go? I have no feelings like before, now it’s all a show. It’s not a real mystery. I’ve seen it before. Been there, done that...same view from the door. It looks bright and sunny outside and so dark within, But I’m held back with a fear of beginning again. It’s too hard to leave, but harder to stay Make things better? Don’t know what I can say. Now I’m ready to go, “rule the world“ I’m thinking; But, I’ve found it’s tough already and I feel myself sinking....

Poetry / Winter Queen

Tangled thoughts Over the Winter Queen, As she walks in bitter cold memories. I have found no warmth In together-future dreams. Ending love and desire; Passion left in freeze.

The skyline glows with a rusty haze, While the smoke billows from a growing blaze. In the station, the siren cuts through the peaceful hush. Everyone comes alive in an organized rush Down to the trucks and donning their gear, They leave behind warm beds, dreams and even their fear. Race down the street; ‘round the corner and through the light, Each one prepares mentally for the coming fight. At the scene there is chaos and confusion by all Except for those arriving to answer the call. Like a ...

Poetry / Butterfly
Version 1

I can't seem to find the happiness that once was mine. And I can't believe that my joy was really just a lie. Made up in my mind as a shelter from life's pain Like a mental umbrella in a pouring rain. Was it friendship or love...confidence or pride; Maybe faith in higher powers from which I now shade my eye. I wish I knew, so I could have it again. I'm a caterpillar with a chrysalis of sin. No certainty, that the transformation in mind Will match the beauty of a butterfly!

3 am highway cold and alone no hurry to get back no one waiting at home radio stations play my friend no future beyond the headlight's end maps in hand routes carefully set a detour sends me reeling and I haven't found my way yet nothing is familiar the broken road a torment not sure if this, my life's drive is a blessing or just punishment

Poetry / Lying eyes
Version 1

I have gazed into your eyes To look into your soul, your heart. Taking the risk you could see into mine. I have found it hard to trust, Hard to ask for help; To make myself vulnerable to someone else. Can you imagine the empty feelings Of lost love? I feel it now. The things you have said, The things you have done, They have hurt. Again and again And still. I am resolute to make a change! Yet I have found myself forgiving...almost to a fault. And, I melt every time I return to my gaze, Lookin...

Sweet scented dreams swaddled in early morning dew Eliciting visions in brilliant colors of every hue Reflections of life's beauty from each minute form As the passage of time brings calm from the storm

When I was young, they said I was as sweet as could be But by the time I was four, I had lost my virginity To someone who was supposed to be babysitting me I've wondered how no one knew. Why no one could see There was something wrong with the way that I acted, I just wasn't me. I'm older now and have a son of my own. He is almost three. I'm struggling over how to keep the same thing from happening to him But the trouble is I'm stuck; I really don't know where to begin And I have already been ...
