GYPSY SOUL
The four corners of the earth; she searches
With bare feet and solitude
The raging fire within her camp
Calls of the wild inside her
A GYPSY SOUL;
She has no hearth to call her own
Just a raven night
Her eyes as diamond black that tells a tale
Wanderer she is; taken solice
Where the wovles cry
Gypsy soul, "Where do you go?"
With a slight determined smile, where I choose
My destiny is my curse, freedom is my love
All is not naught
For there is a place for a creature as I
A GYPSY SOUL;
Where green grass and wildflowers flow
The babbling brook, and weeping willow
Give me rest, nurture
And the blackest of night, comforts
For her destiny is unknown
And her soul is of a gypsy
The moon her lover
Wind moves her, for her journey is forever
GYPSY SOUL
Restless spirit on endless flight
For I go, "Where I choose

new sole
To clean your mortal body
To cleanse your sole
To renew your sole
To breath new
Beginninings
To rid your sole of
Bad omens
To blow
Away

No more you shall be
To harp the angels sing
A new mortals sole now sings
With god you will drewl
now peace and rejoices
New beginnins beakon
Your new life begins
To cleanse your sole
To renew your sole
To breath new
Beginninings
To rid your sole of
Bad omens
To blow

No more you shall be
To harp the angels sing
A new mortals sole now sings
With god you will drewl
now peace and rejoices
New beginnins beakon
Your new life begins

About this poem:
a twilight love...
Haunting Thoughts
Witches on the wall
White headed grinning demon stooping over a chopping block
Chopped off heads in various stages of decomposition
Sister chopped into cubes by my angry father
If you don't shut up this will happen to you
Screams of agony in pitch black darkness
Trapped in hell
No hope to escape
Fathering a daughter I have to raise at home
It's your turn to change the diaper
Iraq
St. Louis police
Chimpanzee in a zoo
Robin Williams hanging from a door
These haunting thoughts
They occupy my dreams
They occupy my reality
I think it's time to day dream
Dream of something far happier
Far more peaceful
To go to a place where there is really love
White headed grinning demon stooping over a chopping block
Chopped off heads in various stages of decomposition
Sister chopped into cubes by my angry father
If you don't shut up this will happen to you
Screams of agony in pitch black darkness
Trapped in hell
No hope to escape
Fathering a daughter I have to raise at home
It's your turn to change the diaper
Iraq
St. Louis police
Chimpanzee in a zoo
Robin Williams hanging from a door
These haunting thoughts
They occupy my dreams
They occupy my reality
I think it's time to day dream
Dream of something far happier
Far more peaceful
To go to a place where there is really love

About this poem:
Just thinking back on some of the nightmares I've had and the nightmares of the reality I live in.
Too Late
Here I sit watching world go by
In colours drab and drear
I don't know why I feel this way
Why this depression has a hold on me
I drink and drink all day and night
It does not cheer, makes me feel morose
The coke I sniff costs me so much
Yet I think I'm badly hooked
People look and say, "Hey man,
You got the world at your feet."
But none of it matters at all
And I really don't know why
I contemplate the final end
As to how, where and when
My kids I adore, but no thought of them
Nor of my wife who loves me so
Decision made, the deed I'll do
A rope around my neck
One swift kick, the chair flies
Across the room it bounces
The rope so tight around my neck
It chokes the life from me
Last thought that crosses my mind
Too late, I want to live
In colours drab and drear
I don't know why I feel this way
Why this depression has a hold on me
I drink and drink all day and night
It does not cheer, makes me feel morose
The coke I sniff costs me so much
Yet I think I'm badly hooked
People look and say, "Hey man,
You got the world at your feet."
But none of it matters at all
And I really don't know why
I contemplate the final end
As to how, where and when
My kids I adore, but no thought of them
Nor of my wife who loves me so
Decision made, the deed I'll do
A rope around my neck
One swift kick, the chair flies
Across the room it bounces
The rope so tight around my neck
It chokes the life from me
Last thought that crosses my mind
Too late, I want to live

About this poem:
Depression is a terrible thing ... Lost a good friend many years agoGo and catch a falling star (SONG)
Go and catch a falling star,
Get with child a mandrake root,
Tell me where all past years are,
Or who cleft devil's foot,
Teach me to hear mermaids singing,
And find
What wind
Serves to advance an honest mind.
If thou be'st born to strange sights,
Things invisible to see,
Ride ten thousand days and nights,
Till age snow white hairs on thee,
Thou, when thou return'st, wilt tell me,
All strange wonders that befell thee,
And swear,
No where
Lives a woman true and fair.
If thou find'st one,let me know,
Such a Pilgrimage were sweet;
Yet do not,I would not go,
Thought at next door we might meet,
Thought she were true,when you met her,
And last,till you write your letter,
Yet she
Will be
False,ere I come,to two,or three.
A woman's mind is always mutable ; )
Get with child a mandrake root,

About this poem:
It's about lost CHILDHOOD.
Untitled
Surrounded by the silence
Only night can bring
Enveloped in the darkened clouds
Arms which angels sing
Bated breath like wind does blow
Only sign of motion
Rampant thoughts take steps so slow
Attempt to stifle emotions
Hide and seek the random play
Not left for children’s feet
This game is not of one we choose
And ends with souls defeat.
Only night can bring
Enveloped in the darkened clouds
Arms which angels sing
Bated breath like wind does blow
Only sign of motion
Rampant thoughts take steps so slow
Attempt to stifle emotions
Hide and seek the random play
Not left for children’s feet
This game is not of one we choose
And ends with souls defeat.

About this poem:
Haven't posted any poems in a while and thought I would share one. Hope all here are doing well. :)Black & White III
When we were young life was so easy
It was all in black and white
Love was hot and passions ran deep
Consequences did not exist
Stumbling and falling did not matter
Right back up and into the fray
Every day there were new adventures
Tomorrow brought a new love to life
Years pass slowly, yet too quickly too
The colours change to shades of grey
White no longer crisp and clear
The black a washed out of former self
Takes years of living to finally realise
That nothing is cut and dried
Truth exists in many versions
It's all a matter of how we see
So there we sit with long life behind us
Wishing we learned it long ago
Each one has their own road to travel
Different ways we reach this end
It was all in black and white
Love was hot and passions ran deep
Consequences did not exist
Stumbling and falling did not matter
Right back up and into the fray
Every day there were new adventures
Tomorrow brought a new love to life
Years pass slowly, yet too quickly too
The colours change to shades of grey
White no longer crisp and clear
The black a washed out of former self
Takes years of living to finally realise
That nothing is cut and dried
Truth exists in many versions
It's all a matter of how we see
So there we sit with long life behind us
Wishing we learned it long ago
Each one has their own road to travel
Different ways we reach this end

About this poem:
The third one in the 'Black & White' seriesDown A Dark Road
Why Ba’al-zebub, why? Together we've walked
Down this road dark and drear
So many people have kicked me down
Just because to me you are near
I must admit my patience I've lost
And cursed them all to Hell
Did you listen, act on my curses
For some aren't doing so well
Some have met a grizzly end
Hacked to pieces, their life had fled
Some drowned, others burned
The lucky ones died in their bed
So tell me is it because of what I said
Or like me, does your hate run deep
It matters not, just you and me
I'll rejoice while their widows weep
Down this road dark and drear
So many people have kicked me down
Just because to me you are near
I must admit my patience I've lost
And cursed them all to Hell
Did you listen, act on my curses
For some aren't doing so well
Some have met a grizzly end
Hacked to pieces, their life had fled
Some drowned, others burned
The lucky ones died in their bed
So tell me is it because of what I said
Or like me, does your hate run deep
It matters not, just you and me
I'll rejoice while their widows weep
