Tempus Fugit
Time unravels quickly around me.
Sand sifting through grasping fingers.
I reach for a moment, but it slips away.
How did I get here?
Sand sifting through grasping fingers.
I reach for a moment, but it slips away.
How did I get here?

About this poem:
(Time Flies)Love Lies Bleeding
Kindred spirits circle round,
Shattered fragments on the ground,
Eternally, two hearts made one,
I pledged the Moon, you pledged the Sun.
Five lifetimes cursed, born of the dust,
Five endings all with dagger thrust.
Every time I try, I fail,
To release you from death’s icy veil.
Souls entwined, destiny bittersweet,
Now, love lies bleeding at my feet.
Shattered fragments on the ground,
Eternally, two hearts made one,
I pledged the Moon, you pledged the Sun.
Five lifetimes cursed, born of the dust,
Five endings all with dagger thrust.
Every time I try, I fail,
To release you from death’s icy veil.
Souls entwined, destiny bittersweet,
Now, love lies bleeding at my feet.

About this poem:
An epic love of tragic proportion. I wrote this poem for my 4th book, YA Paranormal Fantasy, to be released in the Fall of 2015.
Morning Star (Angel of light)
What is she
to me?
she shines by Mars
as the morning
and evening stars...
Inspiration for poetry
the fire in my hearth
she is a magician I know
an enchantress
moonlight on my window...
Come forth feathered dragon
morning star rise
I face to confront my sin
my fiery happiness
let the dream begin...
Morning star
to evening star
Winter starlight fell
sparks from your black hair
for even Lucifer was an angel...

Carla...
the darkend room
O sit and drewll
The darkend room
The banging the echos of noise
The deafening sounds
Consumes ones ears
Echos and vibrates
The room darkens
The stench of
Cold consumes
The bare flakes off the wall the decay
One is lost the sole is consumed
The darkend room
The banging the echos of noise
The deafening sounds
Consumes ones ears
Echos and vibrates
The room darkens
The stench of
Cold consumes
The bare flakes off the wall the decay
One is lost the sole is consumed

Worry Be Unhappy
Here's a little song I wrote
You don't want to sing it note for note
Worry
Be unhappy
In every life we have some trouble
Go ahead and worry and make it double
Worry
Be unhappy
Worry be unhappy now
Rotted your teeth out with Mello Yello
Used a dead rat for a pillow
Police man sprayed your face with mace
A cardboard box is your place
Worry
Be unhappy
Boooo hooo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Worry
Be unhappy
Hey I'd give you my phone number
But I don't have a phone
But if I did
I'd make you unhappy
Ain't got no cash
Ain't got no style
Ain't got no girl or anyone to make you smile
Worry
Be unhappy
Cause when you worry your face with frown
Go ahead
Bring everybody down
Worry Be unhappy
It will get worse
Whatever it is
You don't want to sing it note for note
Worry
Be unhappy
In every life we have some trouble
Go ahead and worry and make it double
Worry
Be unhappy
Worry be unhappy now
Rotted your teeth out with Mello Yello
Used a dead rat for a pillow
Police man sprayed your face with mace
A cardboard box is your place
Worry
Be unhappy
Boooo hooo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Worry
Be unhappy
Hey I'd give you my phone number
But I don't have a phone
But if I did
I'd make you unhappy
Ain't got no cash
Ain't got no style
Ain't got no girl or anyone to make you smile
Worry
Be unhappy
Cause when you worry your face with frown
Go ahead
Bring everybody down
Worry Be unhappy
It will get worse
Whatever it is

About this poem:
Bobby McFerrin had a number one hit with Don't Worry Be Happy, which has no instruments.
In the dark
I see this star at night as I walk
It seams so bright the others fade in it's light
When I see it I stop my dogs wonder why
But they will never know they they'll never be that wise
I understand why man needed more
Some star have a color and beautiful that's more
But the brightness of that one star
So close and yet so far
I can almost reach it with my hand so far
Every night I see that star
With me it's traveled so very far
It seams so bright the others fade in it's light
When I see it I stop my dogs wonder why
But they will never know they they'll never be that wise
I understand why man needed more
Some star have a color and beautiful that's more
But the brightness of that one star
So close and yet so far
I can almost reach it with my hand so far
Every night I see that star
With me it's traveled so very far

About this poem:
Lately I've been writing about everything. Also recording. I walk 8 miles a day reciting poems and lyrics for my song. Just another observation in the night.
~I step to the edge~
Goosebumps rising
Chilled rush of skin
Endorphin's poppin
Adrenaline swim.
I don't usually face what my mind fears the most
When those times come around my feet step back a few
Rational reason nowhere to be found!
What the hell was I thinking getting this close
That fear that feeling that fear that's feared most.
I'd no idea that pushing this far
Would open the wound and cast out the scar.
What the hell was I thinking I must have been mad
That part of your life you feel you've been had.
They say close your eyes......sure
Then the fear becomes scared
Mind runs in circles
You can't be prepared.
So I step to the edge to the edge one more time
Just like before I'm not feeling fine!

About this poem:
I've talked with lots of people about fear and it's pretty interesting to hear the different ways they express it, as well as have a tough time to overcome it's grasp! Cheers.
Listen to good advice
In the land of angels,
Demons come out to play.
Whispering hidden tresures and clues,
Dont believe every word they say!
Be prepared and open your eyes,
Mocking your faith and intelligence,
Nothing seems to go as you please,
Adding layers of fabricated essence.
Now don't you understand,
Time to listen to good advice.
Dangers always dont sound nice,
Hidden beautifully in wicked device!
Dont shake your head in disbelief,
Time and method may have change,
But the deal is always the same,
Devil binds your soul in a death chain!

Post CommentChronic Insomniac
I gave it all up
every time
as long
as it was next week...
So surreal
the more I did
the more I laughed
out of context...
Escaping reality
so harder
to cope
when it was re-imagined..
Then I imagined
all the bill collectors
as little
voodoo dolls..
They all
had needles
in their mouths
But, I don't care,
I'm holding
the dagger..HaHaHaha!

About this poem:
Just kidding..releasing some stress..lolDarkness
Darkness enveloppes
Stars glint
In the clear moon lite sky
Darkness decendes
The moon full
Silence surrounds
Star Lights flicker
And glow
Its faint yellow glow
Cold radiates
Chills the soul
Silence broken
The sounds of the nite
Silence broken
Stars glint
In the clear moon lite sky
Darkness decendes
The moon full
Silence surrounds
Star Lights flicker
And glow
Its faint yellow glow
Cold radiates
Chills the soul
Silence broken
The sounds of the nite
Silence broken
