accept yourself.
Hush! For in your quietness I see you.
I see your wisdom in the things that
You don't say.
Yes I long to hear the loving words.
But even I know there are words,
That can never be heard.
The silent whisper of I love you,
Are stronger than I own you!
Love is patient,love is kind,never
Rushing without aim,
So how can I the fiery one show
You,what I feel?
When all I really want to do is engulf
you in my flames?
I am fire and I love you as you are,
So please o beautiful one,
Accept me too, as I am.
I can and am willing to change my
Attitude
But who I was born to be will never
Change.
For this is who I am.
In all my imperfections
And in all my "shame"
I am who I am and yet
I HAVE changed.
I see your wisdom in the things that
You don't say.
Yes I long to hear the loving words.
But even I know there are words,
That can never be heard.
The silent whisper of I love you,
Are stronger than I own you!
Love is patient,love is kind,never
Rushing without aim,
So how can I the fiery one show
You,what I feel?
When all I really want to do is engulf
you in my flames?
I am fire and I love you as you are,
So please o beautiful one,
Accept me too, as I am.
I can and am willing to change my
Attitude
But who I was born to be will never
Change.
For this is who I am.
In all my imperfections
And in all my "shame"
I am who I am and yet
I HAVE changed.

About this poem:
Accept yourself and learn.Here I stand
I am there again
remembering yesterday
like a savage wind
Been here before
like a boy
now a man
….Here I stand
There again
so many years
have come now gone
what went right
what went wrong
Bitter sweet freedom
from the war
I won
….Here I stand
There again
regret leaks
down my cheeks
a taste of ones own
tears brings relief
Now older wiser
I understand why
….Here I stand
remembering yesterday
like a savage wind
Been here before
like a boy
now a man
….Here I stand
There again
so many years
have come now gone
what went right
what went wrong
Bitter sweet freedom
from the war
I won
….Here I stand
There again
regret leaks
down my cheeks
a taste of ones own
tears brings relief
Now older wiser
I understand why
….Here I stand

About this poem:
this poem for me is about self awareness of the paths in life that i have traveled, still travel and the many crossroads i've ignored missed or taken
Keeping Vows
Every day, now, is rain
Every day is rain, every day is rain
Every day is overcast, glum, and gray
I can feel my face sag, emotionless
I can smell the toast, black
I can smell the bacon, black
Is it really my slack posture
Which puts these holes into my slippers
Or possibly this weight in my heart
Some leadened spiritual sinker
That pulls me down and drags my spirit
Every day that I can't learn
How to love you again
Or every day that I can't muster courage
To tell you that I don't, anymore
Every day is rain, every day is rain
Every day is overcast, glum, and gray
I can feel my face sag, emotionless
I can smell the toast, black
I can smell the bacon, black
Is it really my slack posture
Which puts these holes into my slippers
Or possibly this weight in my heart
Some leadened spiritual sinker
That pulls me down and drags my spirit
Every day that I can't learn
How to love you again
Or every day that I can't muster courage
To tell you that I don't, anymore

About this poem:
Because 'forever' is a long time.
The Lie
It is interesting how it all starts out
Everyone is excited and moving about
Love is in the air
Show up with a flair
The conversations get deeper in thought
The lies a spider web ready to be caught
some times people need more love than one
therefore they think they must have some fun
playing with a persons heart is not nice
both parties endure what a slice
At the end a story is told
Seems just a little too bold
However the fall has taken place
The fall the despair from grace
Pick up the pieces and go on
like a trendy old fashioned song
Everyone is excited and moving about
Love is in the air
Show up with a flair
The conversations get deeper in thought
The lies a spider web ready to be caught
some times people need more love than one
therefore they think they must have some fun
playing with a persons heart is not nice
both parties endure what a slice
At the end a story is told
Seems just a little too bold
However the fall has taken place
The fall the despair from grace
Pick up the pieces and go on
like a trendy old fashioned song

Be who you are:
The One
you secret
inside.
Live with valor
what you feel.
Release the love
you hide.
The dream we live in
suffers fools
who dare throw
their heart's doors
open wide.
Love's gate keeper
be Thou not.
Nor your own
True Self
despise.
Fear not Thou
tiny horrors:
rejection
derision
spite.
Nor boast
of what Time
steals away:
possessions
beauty
pride.
But live
your life
in tribute fair:
Angelic Grail of Light.
The heroic gaze
of Love's champion
Will never be
denied.

About this poem:
I've met another trapped soul. A man friend seven years younger than myself who has made a life that traps him into manifesting outwardly someone entirely different from what he feels inside and wants despiriately to let out. No simple sad coincidence that he works as a jailer in the "Department of Corrections". One wonders who the prisoners actually are.
Rough Shot
Riding through
tail winds
whipping my feet
rains no matter
blinding my eyes
hair stinging my back
but
I
rode on
no sense of cold
just
moving forward
Sunrise
beckons
away
a halt
to see
deep sadness
creeping
release
I am not far
stringing streams
winding minds
moving future
caressing past
spitting out
the last
tail winds
whipping my feet
rains no matter
blinding my eyes
hair stinging my back
but
I
rode on
no sense of cold
just
moving forward
Sunrise
beckons
away
a halt
to see
deep sadness
creeping
release
I am not far
stringing streams
winding minds
moving future
caressing past
spitting out
the last

Have you seen a bright star, in the night sky
Leaves you breathless, escapes a single sigh
Single and alone, warning of times when sad
Those special moments, when a heart is glad
Focus on beauty, crystal clear and bright
Never to be hidden, or stay out of sight
Like a pulsing heartbeat, attention draws
Makes inner emotions, rise until they soar
Exploding into a universe, it was set free
Humans needing reassurance, look up.... and see......
Leaves you breathless, escapes a single sigh
Single and alone, warning of times when sad
Those special moments, when a heart is glad
Focus on beauty, crystal clear and bright
Never to be hidden, or stay out of sight
Like a pulsing heartbeat, attention draws
Makes inner emotions, rise until they soar
Exploding into a universe, it was set free
Humans needing reassurance, look up.... and see......

About this poem:
reassurance ...gift in the skyDark moments in my Daughters life.
You came as a gift from Heaven,
I felt it that day as it revel;
you was all my Love in that moment,
not knowing the hardship of omen.
I knew,that you was the part of me,
but the life in shadow I could not see,
I wanted to be as Father the best,
but it turned out to be more than a test.
Your Fate was not what I had want,
the hardship you faced was evil as sort,
what ever big Love I had in my Heart,
could never safe you from that part.
The Mother I chose for you,
did never had the Heart of true,
the cruel and dark she had in mind,
she made as a crime,but still could hide.
I left the family for something new,
but naive as I was I had no clue,
that all my Love as Father,
your Mother turned to monster rather.
Four years old,so full of life and light,
you was the Busy Bee in it's hight,
but evil never work with sense,
so all your life turn into vain hence.
Your Mother split your life from me,
to do what ever bad she could as fee,
two years all contact was forbidden,
she cut your wings and made me a sinner.
All what she did to you in hate,
make me to bleed in all my Fate,
it's always as a needle in my Soul,
and never can it heal in whole.
Your Mother kick you round the floor,
your head was bleeding and safe not more,
when evil mind of her enough had got,
the conscious in your little Body was there not.
She left you there with no remorse,
was moral her of evil sours,
when conscious yours got back to light,
you hide in the closet for the rest of night.
You had to clean the blood your self,
Your Mother had no Heart to help,
she ordered also you to lie,
that down from chair you fell as fail.
The damage is there for life,
in body and in Soul so tight,
so many times your faith has dive,
but part of me you always climbing back to life.
I helped you to build wings new,
to give some better chance for you,
and as a Mother you are now,
your Heart is true to know how.
What ever old you are to be,
my Daughter little still I see,
but also friend you are of mine,
and there are never anything to hide.

About this poem:
To start with the first truth,this Poem was very hard to do,I cry and write,cry and write again and again,the feelings of the memories came out from the shadow.Her Mother did not want children at all,what I could not understand,because I wonted so many of them and I was believing,that as a Mother she is sure going to Love her children,but I was badly wrong.
We was over all to far from each other in to many things and then I left the family for my two Sons Mother.
My Love for my Daughter was very deep and her Mother was very jealous about it and told to my Daughter that she was the reason to our divorce.
She told my Mother,that she is going to do everything she can to destroy my life.
Before that she met with my new Love and they made a deal,that if I take care of her needs,then she give my Daughter to us.
When I heard it ,I could not accept that other people make a deal about how to use me and I did refuse. I have think about it many time later and that I should had accept to be used,then I could had safe my Daughter from the horrible things that was done to her.
Later my Daughter was taken with Ambulance two times unconscious to the Hospital,but nobody still checked what was the real reason.....I never knew what had happen,but if I had heard about it,I had for sure not believed in any accident.
My Daughter got finally courage enough to brake her self out from the jail she had live in from 4 years old on the Fathers day,when she was 15,she came to me and refused to go back to the Mother.
From 4 years old,she had to wash her own cloth,make food,take care of all her own things and also wash the floor of whole the apartment on knees in an old way,she kept her as an made or in fact more as like a Slave.
About 20 years ago,she got a stroke in the Brain where she had got the damage when the Mother kick her around the room. The Doctor was thinking she hardly going to survive,but I think she is of hardwood as I am and she survived.
She still has to take Aspirin every day to keep the blood thin and a shadow is of course hanging over her.
After she moved to live with me,she still had hardship with her self,she was not sure who she was,because the Mother had destroyed almost all her own will.
She start to drink in secret and when I realized it,she was already alcoholic.
A Tribute to My Late Brother
With a broken heart I say to you
You will remain with me in spirit in whatever I do
I wish that I had the chance to say goodbye
But I hope that your soul is floating in the heavenly sky
To protect and guide me
To open my eyes and let me see
That life is too short
Holding grudges and bad feelings we should abort
We must extend our hand to those we love
Knowing that saying sorry is tough
But it will open hearts for forgiveness
And clear from our lives sadness
I hope that you will hear me calling your name
Saying that without you, life will never be the same
We didn’t often connect but I always loved you
Regardless of what you had to do
Please, forgive me if I ever hurt your feeling
While with trivial issues we were dealing
You will remain with me in spirit in whatever I do
I wish that I had the chance to say goodbye
But I hope that your soul is floating in the heavenly sky
To protect and guide me
To open my eyes and let me see
That life is too short
Holding grudges and bad feelings we should abort
We must extend our hand to those we love
Knowing that saying sorry is tough
But it will open hearts for forgiveness
And clear from our lives sadness
I hope that you will hear me calling your name
Saying that without you, life will never be the same
We didn’t often connect but I always loved you
Regardless of what you had to do
Please, forgive me if I ever hurt your feeling
While with trivial issues we were dealing
