Fading into black
Lost in the wilderness
I can't look back
the sky is dark
fading to black.
A knife in my heart
hard to pull out
it cuts so deep
but I refuse to shout.
Where is the love?
blood dripping to dirt
now i feel nothing
but pain and hurt.
Afraid I stumble and fall
Dear Lord I pray
this is not the end
this world a shade of gray.
I hear the reaper coming around
to put me six feet under
the hard cold ground
clouds lightning and thunder.
Lord, the way I have lost
I'm running out of time
I'll do whatever to pay the cost
the highest mountain I will climb.
Bring my lady into my arms
help me get back on track
without her my life is over
everything fading into black...

About this poem:
So many people alone on the holidays, such as myself..I thought I would write a poem expressing the loneliness...Kind of came out like lyrics to a song..
Not Meant To Be
There once was a time if I just closed my eyes,
I could see us together as one.
But after these years of growing apart,
I can see that dream is done.
You were the one who knew me inside and out,
And always knew just what to say.
Any problems I had would disappear,
When you said it would all be okay.
There was always a special connection with us,
And these days it seems to be gone.
Whatever we had died a long time ago,
But it's just so hard to move on.
Those times I'd drown in the blue of your eyes,
You never noticed a thing.
There were nights I laid awake and thought,
Of the love our friendship could bring.
No matter how hard I've been trying,
The truth is so hard to see.
I guess it takes a while to let go,
Of something not meant to be.

About this poem:
This poem is about someone who I thought was the one, but turned out that I was just a runner up and always would be.
Killing Time
The nights are the quietest when you sit and stare,
the home is silent, only your own breathing is heard,
the cat looks at you, purring softly we make a fine pair,
you look back over the months of the time when you cared,
Our time together so many positives, being in love as life directed,
Now my mind reflects, considers those moments and words said,
when I asked so many times would and could you be happy here? your answers were always deflected,
because love and caring for you was always my first concern, I never really took your words into my head,
For my love for you led myself into a blinding trust,
the way in which you dismissed me from your life,
being blocked and not being able to make contact made my heart bust,
I will never understand your motives, you could have been my wife,
And now I watch as an observer whilst in the forum you check profiles anew,
your doing all this in such a frantic rush since you set me free,
obviously you had some plan to gain and real love was not in you,
so now I sit here killing time now that I have let you be,
The last twelve months have been a roller-coaster of emotions,
so next year in 2014 is my time for me, and how my life will be,
what to do and were I go, I still have no real notions,
but at last in time and with care this heart of mine will soon be really free.

About this poem:
Reflections we all go through this process and wonder why? My feelings are still there for this person but for them to be able to be so free meant they never really had any true love for me, acceptance of marriage proposal and planning wedding details were all a game for them as this to me is now how it seems.Letting Go
Never in my wildest life
did I ever expect to meet
someone who took the time
to cleverly and totally vet me.
From the very first hello
to the next to last goodbye
the connection that we had
provoked a natural high.
Wanting to hold on tight
but needing to let it go
I couldn’t allow our feelings
to spin this out of control.
They ate away at my psyche
like a ravaging painful cancer
and there never really was
any wrong or righteous answer.
Every move I made
was to gain a broader view,
every move you made
was to meet somebody new.
Leaving me to stand alone
you spent most of your time with them
I’m sure you had your reasons
so I left to make my own friends.
Now we have moved on
no grass grows beneath our feet
we are both single agents
and there’s plenty more people to meet.
Some will get up close
others will keep their distance,
and we’ll each meet our match
on the path of least resistance.

About this poem:
It takes my heart time to catch up to my head.
Feeling the rain
As I watch the light turn into dark.
Tears begin to roll down my eyes.
The rain begin to pour, and the hurts begin to rip away my heart.
Damn am sorry baby I kept giving you lame excuses and lies.
I read the text you sent, but all I see it is really saying is goodbyes.
Am feeling the rain, and the more it pour; comes the pain.
Am missing you baby so much; it got me going "insane in the membrane."
Am feeling the rain, and the more it pour; comes the pain.
Am missing you baby so much; it got me going "insane in the membrane."
Am feeling the rain because that's how we meet.
You remember baby I give you my coat, because you were cold and wet.
We then lock eyes, and instantly felled in love.
I was grateful you chosen me, because I was the ugly duckling surrounded by dove.
But I lie and cheated on you in front of God eyes up above.
Am feeling the rain, and the more it pour; comes the pain.
Am missing you baby so much; it's got me going "insane in the membrane."
Am feeling the rain, and the more it pour; comes the pain.
Am missing you baby so much; it's got me going "insane in the membrane."
Come back baby; come back home.
I miss you so much that I never slept on your side of the bed.
Without you Am so alone.
I've had cried, and cred to my face turn red.
I realize I made a mistake, and am so sorry baby forevermore.
Then I watch the dark turn into the light, and I heard the door.
It was my ba.
She said to me: "I forgive you and am here to stay. So forget about feeling the rain.
Let it pour, because am here to ease the pain.
I miss you to baby so much; It had gotten me going 'insane in the membrane.' "
So moral of the story is "you never know what you've got until it's gone."
Because all that playing around will catch up to you, and you might grow old standing alone.

About this poem:
Hardship of Breakupsriver of dreams
In my dreams there is a place worth knowing,where the river is flowing. A place of magic,a sea of love, where nothing clouds the sun. Where masterpieces in the making lets me fly. Where broken loves rapid water falls fills murkey pools littered with shards of past loves calls. when life fills my heart with agoney of dispair to be rescued by dreams flowing rivers where sunsets are,into the sea of love.

Post CommentNow that she's gone
My first love gave me so much pride,
now that's she's gone all i can do Is hide.
I felt like I was on top of the world and full of fame,
now that's she's gone all I do is hang my head with shame.
When we were together nothing could break us apart near or far,
now that she's gone all I have left on my heart is a scar.
I wish her all very the best,
now that she's gone she can't cry on my chest.
I'm sure she's happy and doing well,
now that she's gone why does it feel like my life is going to hell.
now that's she's gone all i can do Is hide.

Post Commenta glimpse of you
It's quite natural I suppose:
I looked into your eyes and saw my reflection.
I watched your subtle movements
and dancing shuffle through the halls as my
Heart burst into Flames...
I fell in Love with you.
A glimpse of your Heart
I saw that morning (all those years ago.)
I could have turned away,
I tried....
but would not.
I tried again...
I did not.
Without expectations,
I stumbled into your life...
You whispered,
" I love you Gregory"
through that pirate grin of yours,
my face blushed as so many times before...
so many times before.
Now you are gone...and I am gone.
Both of us the victim...
both of us the perpetrator.
Only my eyes speak of you now;
my lips cannot move.
Passions dimmed, and distorted...
our regrets manifest only as sighs.
A glimpse of your heart,
memories now strained...
eclipsed by our own betrayed,
torn, tattered and frayed.

A Sour Taste
Trusting my heart
Not seeing the pain
Blinded by desperation
Once drove me insane.
Haunted by scars
Memories of the past
Afraid opportunities passing
Decisions made in rush.
Falling too hastily
For lust yet not love
Karmas twisted pay back
A joke from above.
Denying the truth
So I taste the sorrow
Still foolishly hoping
For a better tomorrow.
The potion of love
Bittersweet I know
The poison of loneliness
Is killing my soul.

dead love
In the graveyard
of empty promises
one of broken hearts
Hands touching midnight
The bell tolls
Soul wrenching
Touching darkness
Cold fingers of ice
In frozen tears
steel in coldness
touching skin
Cries in the deepest
depths of hell
Crawling nightmares confused
A cauldron
of boiling fear
Dripping with agony
In water
Dark madness
A blank page of nothing
Crawling searching
The lost souls
A cloud
in breathing
I exist
Strangling
gasping breath
Hurt squeezing out
Life of happiness
Floating
Dark dreams
An empty shell
Bones rattling
Crawling in the skin
The Devil's touch
Cold to the bone
Tainted cold poison
In becoming
The walking dead
I hide
in the shadows
Lost dreams
Following love
A restless soul
Love so cruel
Dead remains
Emotion ending
My end
a withered
black rose
The heart
Died
of empty promises
one of broken hearts
Hands touching midnight
The bell tolls
Soul wrenching
Touching darkness
Cold fingers of ice
In frozen tears
steel in coldness
touching skin
Cries in the deepest
depths of hell
Crawling nightmares confused
A cauldron
of boiling fear
Dripping with agony
In water
Dark madness
A blank page of nothing
Crawling searching
The lost souls
A cloud
in breathing
I exist
Strangling
gasping breath
Hurt squeezing out
Life of happiness
Floating
Dark dreams
An empty shell
Bones rattling
Crawling in the skin
The Devil's touch
Cold to the bone
Tainted cold poison
In becoming
The walking dead
I hide
in the shadows
Lost dreams
Following love
A restless soul
Love so cruel
Dead remains
Emotion ending
My end
a withered
black rose
The heart
Died
