Grieving from the Grave by Criostior.

Opportunity

Opportunity

Opportunity knocks, embrace its call, Unleash your dreams, stand tall. With courage as your guiding light, Embrace the chance, seize the fight. A door opens wide, opportunity's gate, Embrace the challenge, don't hesitate. For within its grasp

You were to young to leave

You were to young to leave

You were so weary God put his arms around you You gently slipped away That’s the day you were taking to your new home while holding Gods hands You didn’t go alone a part of me went too Never good bye Always I’ll see you later!

Piece Of Mind

Piece Of Mind

It was 12-4-92 when I wrote this. Being towards very much more songwriter than poet, I started out loosely with this and it all took form. Odd as it seems, it was at the end of the Gulf War; yet, perhaps, it fits most best as of now?

Paladins minute

Paladins minute

Heard it on a Tv show in the 80s it has stuck with me ever since, Sums up about everything really.

Farewell but not Goodbye

Farewell but not Goodbye

My final words for my mother which will forever endure as the written word remains long after we do

The inky grey

The inky grey

slice of life

Games and life

Games and life!

Such games prevail, but sadness reigns, the Show must go on, be what they want you to be, And then, finally you see, too late, it’s over, Oh such games we play, humanity is where it is, Honesty and integrity, so many have failed, So many pedesta

A journey we all eventually must take

For someone close I know who is close to leaving for her final journey.

Cirque des morts

Cirque des morts

little bizarre thoughts came over me

Gone

Gone…

It’s all gone.

Suffer the little children to come unto me Matt 19 14

“Suffer the little children to come unto me..”Matt.:19-14

I know it’s late but I had to say something. I hear responsible gun owners and the majority of Americans want gun legislation that prevents this daily occurrence. Lawmakers must do better. Were it their own kids dying they would do something Yesterday! Inflation, the economy are important but people are dying senselessly. This cannot be ignored!

thoughts

thoughts

alone after loss

Ghost of Brotherhood

Ghost of Brotherhood

A glimpse into the psychological torment people endure for years after a loved one commits suicide. The pain it causes (for me at least) can be best described as haunting.

Little Cans

Little Cans

a boy who got someone he loved or her mom's died but he doesn't know what happened to her... and in the end he become a grown up man who already faced and saw everythings bad in the past... ???? DID SOMEONE DROP ONIONS INTO MY EYES???

Loves last moment

Loves last moment

Eyes swelling becoming tearful spilling over tear drops fall. Words failing lips open unable to speak emotions choking. Hands tremble fingers entwined clenching the hand that clings to mine. Door open light has entered darkness cl

Loneliness Up For Sale

Loneliness Up For Sale

Poetry is more about feelings than words that convey them as much as nostalgia works in our inner minds,

SHE

SHE

An ode to my Mother.

Should I

Should I…?

I wonder..after death, would we want to remember our old life?

Same old story

Same old story!

A Winter's day in Summer, A Summer's day in Winter, A promise kept, A promise broken, A pact un-kept, A love unspoken, Different days, and different ways, Different eyes and different lies, Different you and different me, Different times

Launch Complex 34

Launch Complex 34

On January 27, 1967, NASA astronauts Virgil I. Grissom, Edward H. White, II, and Roger B. Chaffee were aboard an Apollo spacecraft and Saturn IB rocket for what was supposed to be routine ground testing of the systems. America was heading for the Moon, and all-up testing was designed to ensure spacecraft functions, the Launch Control Center, and other critical pieces required to get to the Moon. The test was considered non-hazardous. A 100% oxygen-fed fire ignited in their Command Module, and all three perished in just a few minutes as launch pad personnel desperately tried to open the multi-layered hatch which was designed to be hard to remove to preserve spacecraft hull integrity. Others tried to fight the fire while rescue crews arrived, but it was to no avail. Launch Complex 34 was decommissioned after the manned Apollo 7 launch, and the launch platform left as part of a memorial to the astronauts. In honor of their lost lives, NASA also deemed that the astronauts should be forever honored by honoring their crew name of Apollo 1, which would have been the first manned Earth-orbit flight for the Command and Service Modules. Their official mission patch is black-bordered in publicity photos of the men taken before their deaths, rather than do afterwards in memoriam. Some 55 years after their deaths, the LC-34 platform still stands, with two plaques honoring the men attached to the platform legs, as well as additional memorial information added to the site.

The Old Oak Tree

The old Oak tree was in pretty bad shape. It had been hit by lightning in 78. Kids climbed on it and broke some branches. About 50 feet away there was a wild cherry, it's bark was very smooth and it's leaves so green. Every year it m

Fly solo

Fly solo

We went fishing after my Godpa passed away this September. I went fishing with my Godmother as that was the way she wanted to remember him. They love fishing. I saw a bird fly in the sky so I wrote about it.

Questions just questions answers to follow

Questions , just questions, answer's to follow!

What will you do when the doing is done?, what will you do when the race is won? who will you be?, what will you see,,... ......eternity?

The Old Man

The Old Man!

The old man left our house, took my car and drove away, I was twenty one, I remember to this day, There was no goodbye, there was no adieu, there was never, we'll never see you, again, And life went on, with someone gone, like a dis

No guarantee

No guarantee!

Tomorrow will always come after today ends Tomorrow WILL be with or without you or me Today is where we are at right now No guarantee of tomorrow, no how So its strange to me and strange to see Such importance placed on what may never be.

Are we i wonder

Are we i wonder?

Honesty and integrity are the ideal of what we should be, truthfulness and clarity are what we should see, are we a minus or a plus, we won't make a fuss, I think that minus may win the game, I don't know, are we all the same?

Where were you

Where were you?

Where were you when Kennedy died? Where were you when Simpson lied? Where were you when you realised? Where were you?

Again

Again!

And still we repeat, still we retreat, until we're backed into a corner, only then will the battle for survival become the host of a new revival, new wisdom to see, what things there could be, but twill only get lost in history. Again!

Today

Today!

How do we feel today?, too overwhelming for anyone to say, regression, depression, fear just being here? Confused? Refused the right to live, to give, no verbal discussion, just physical concussion, and all because of (rushing), into a whole new way,

I woke

I woke!

I woke today, just like yesterday, but with winters rain against my window pane, on this summers day, was wrong!, , no sunlight shadow crossed my bedroom there, no birdsong noone to care, and the light would dim, lie down and die, forsaken who? you o

Another day

Another day

So the wind chill factor is -5 but I'll stay alive, this doorway is cold but I have cardboard boxes to fold, I can be ok, I can be alright, I know I'll get through another night, and tomorrow will be another day,,, and I hope, maybe better, somewher
