Kindness in death

day has ended
night has fallen
ears dont listen
when sleep is calling.
tired unwilling
upstairs i stroll
tears will fall
eyes won't close.

tossing and turning
sleep won't come
memories haunt me
of that special one.
sleep will take me
dreams dont forget
i wake what i sleeps on
pillows soaking wet.

morning has broken
must birds always sing
must i rise to another
id rather not live.
wanting to be like him
is it really so wrong
want to be like him
i too wish i were gone.

She IS Beautiful!

You were who you were
caressed, you let life
take it's course
in among
a sea of stunned personal

Looking forward, you grabbed it! turned it!
such a cool strong gal
deciding to make decisions
of what you wanted

sleeping in times of exhaustion
silent at times in hurt
knowing
that life is such a choice
to deal with
you chose
as much you could
flickering love spreading and wonderful pastures
of peace
You know and singing the song of love
and to just do it!

Georgia

You walk among the angels
I know
You have been borned into a loved life.

You shall return to
the caring
of Love
Once again

may your daisy picks
be forever

Love Soph

About this poem:
Georgia was very young teenager and died last week of cancer, she was such an on to it young lady and only wanted the best for all. No holes barred she said what she did, Georgia lived down the road from where I live.
I will go on Saturday to meet her parents.
Never meet them before.
But I will.

Having farms down the road could be quite a long way away.
"Who cares"

Me

For Georgia!

Silent Spurs (another Saloon Story)

Swinging doors
smacked with redemption

Enter the amber eyes
perusing the joint
Sweeping turn of heads

a hand so resonate
to the play of the gun

a deepened Growl
rose to play

"Where IS HE"!

Of darkest shadows
an emerged figure
Ramshackled
dressed in black

lifting eyes so slowly
darkened
mouth so curled

his cards
silently spread

a delicate word
"Here"

as clicking boot spurs
hung long and low
tapped the sound

the death keeper
a gracious

flow

He rose his glass

torn pieces
from my heart

then Tipped his hat

"Another turning of the dirt my boy's"

Resting my hand
No one shall die again today

for my man
with goodness

I Shall wait

Walk with the preacher
today

As sodden dirt
is falling from their hands

My sudden thoughts

Create the deathly
Plans

Knowing Right From Wrong

It's the pain laced cold reality check
crashing winds hurricane blowing
the tail end landing with news processed

Suffering human rights ignored pains
through prides green eyes
a legion filled with envy
money signs the pact

Your a joke monster of a devil
whom mocks and violates this earthly gift
who armed Isis

Or any other of these so called rebel groups
world terrorists are to blame bullies
for such deadly sins taking life's of your fathers sons

They will curse you
to hell and back forever
the damned armed
with the devils tools
destruction of humanity creeps closer

Crawling dark matter
from the dirty underworld
dead bones rise
scattering ash burns to dust

Blood of our brothers and sisters spill
upon grounds seeking peace
sins with their poisonous greed
Oil is now the dark matter reaping souls
without Divine mercy kills with hate

His judgement comes on the final day
they hide in the mountains of who they are
Claiming to be something
they are not humane
begs the question inside truth

World dominating powers invade
with bombs to dominate and destroy a world's grace
Doomsday is there no end
to your horrid need for suffering

Your games Satan faceless entity
hiding in the shadows
a snake turns against God's seals
without spine dark matter
Think human morals out seriously

They have gone upside down deciding fate
our future generations life children cry
in the drop of a hat inside core

Out of this world
tilting balance towards revelations
trial of life
we see answers unfolding
blinded no more by falseness
good against evil begins the battle

I believe in faith
a great source
holding power over hate
so my prayers are for peace
dove of an angel sings the joy
with love and understanding
the book of good conduct
God blesses all those afflicted deeply

It's just like that

"You gotta make your own way
In this world, said the father
To the son"
The son sneered, "Oh, it's like
That?"
"Yeah, said the father, it's
Just like that."
"You gotta be a father to your
Children, mother said to son."
Laughing, said the son, "Oh, its like
That?"
"Yeah, it's just like that, said
Mom.'
"You gotta walk the straight and
Narrow, said the preacher to the
Son."
"It's like that, scoffed the son?"
"Yeah, smiled the preacher, It's
Just like that."
"I gotta give you life, said
The Judge to the son." You've
Been here three times before,
This time you used a gun."
"Oh, it's like that, cried the son?"
"Yeah, frowned the Judge.."
"It's just like that!"

the soul who suffers long

these blackest days, these darkest nights
oh the wicked frozen cold
my darkening eyes adjust to view in the absence of the light
with broken hands i grasp the wind, but nothings there to hold
despite my might and wit and skill
as marooned ive missed the tide
I wait and pray and search dismayed
to find a place to hide
and in this deep canyon of shadows and night
i'll dream of you until im gone
i'll dig beneath the abyss in my soul and bring you up a song
I'll sing it low, and sweet, and loud, for the soul who suffers long

A Simple Rose

Alone I Stand

Alone I Grow

Alone I Breath,

Stretching High Above This Crystal-Encasement In This Dark Warm Room, Water So Low Stem So Delicate And Dry, The Cravings Are Unbearable As Paddles Float Airily To The Ground. As My Head Starts To Drop Tears Start To Fall, Could This Be The Day The Cravings Are No More? Could This Be The Day I Stand Tall No more? Could This Be The Day I Grow No More? Could This Be The Day I Breath No more? And Could This Be The Day I cry My Last Tear?

Bells to all Love

Tonight I can write the saddest poem,
while thoughts of my passed away father keeps me awake at night,
I am silently praying for his soul to rest in peace,
putting candle light
which moving reflection on the wall playfully dances...
and like a fly in the spider net
Memories of childhood awaken to be chew piece by piece;
the very first thought dance of Vienna Waltz with my father,
and smile to happy time and tears of loss
mixes all up in one spirit mingles...
Opening the door for the soul of memories to float,
while wind moves curtens making small and big wave -swell.
One suppress life is hidden in my garden branches
which scratching swings on the window glass cries
and shakes door of my tearful soul
waving with white handkerchief to memories of my father.

Thoughts of past and present
like cold birds tightens up to each other
and under brown blanket dreaming awake
of rowing boat with my father,
Thrown net, court fishes...
and last time seeing hes face in tears
wishing me luck in last fare well,
dreaming of lost daughter in the white world;
hes whispers in the wind,
calling me back...
and I am whispering back to the wind;
Forgive me father,
Your seeds of fruit spread fare from you ...
I am whole Me only in joined parts of old and new world.

The bells of universe,I am ringing with you,
Bells of seances,and chaos deafen,
In me all is rolling.In me all is shaken;
senses,and consciousness,half dreams and half awaken,
Death ringing,
Love in me ringing to dreams of anchor in man soul,
But man falls like star in abyss....
where rope of anchor slides true the wounded hands,
that can not hold on to rope from abyss.

In me all is ringing...
Bells of tenderness;like a little tear.
Bells of innocence and regrets;
from mercy and from enlightening.
Bells of soul,bells for kind heart
that writes you with loving and compassionate line of pen,
Bells to all Life
and loss...
Bells to all Love,dreams and ideals;
Found
and Lost...

Timpul Lui Sageata (Time's Arrow)

Am stiut ca noaptea mea soarta de inima nu a fost un fel sa-mi
Caile voastre ratacitoare si salbatice au stabilit în cele din urma te gratuit
Când m-am vazut lipsit de viata cu zori crainicul pâna în ziua
În inima mea, durerea mea a facut spectacol si spiritul meu au tradat
Acum, ca ma tot ceea ce a lasat în pace, unde esti tu acum prietenul meu?
Anii de zbor rapid si timpul lui sageata zboara catre capatul sau
Mortalitatea peste leagana puterea noastra sa-l si regretul meu preveni
Nu a fost de a restabili lumina in ochii tai au atunci toci
Ca nu veti mai fi mai umbla cu bucurie printre mine
Citatie moarte una la un tarm la rece si mult mai îndepartat
La care te-ai dus draga mea de pisica si te întrebi unde sunt acum?
Asa c*m am tine stiloul meu din nou, durerea fuge eu si iubirea mea creste -a
Viata triumfa asupra pierderii si spiritul meu slab este facut puternic
Cosmo - Am facut sa traiesc din nou într-un cântec cu adevarat fara vârsta.


I knew that night in my heart fate wasn't kind to me
Your ways wandering and wild had finally set you free
When I saw you lifeless with dawn the herald to the day
In my heart, my grief did show and my spirit did betray
Now that you left me all alone, where are you now my friend?
The years fly by fast and time's arrow flies to its end
Mortality over sways our power to prevent it and to my regret
It was not to restore the light in your eyes did I then fret
That you would no longer walk with joy among me anymore
Death summons one to a cold and far more distant shore
To which you went my dear cat and you wonder where am I now?
As I take up my pen anew, grief flees me and my love doth grow
Life triumphs over loss and my weak spirit is made strong
Cosmo - I have made you live again in a truly ageless song.
