Words left unspoken, lost somewhere in time
Visions of yesterday remain in my mind
Silently I cry, for my thoughts I must hide
years gone by, feelings denied
Why must love end with such pain and sorrow
For the love that we shared was filled
with hope and dreams of tomorrow
How can we destroy the lives that we touch
and continue to say, that "I love you so much”
Could it be that with love
we create our "Hell"
breaking the hearts of those that we tell
For the love you are given, a price you must pay
you will be broken, your love thrown away

One thing atop the list of essentials in life is unquestionably laughter
'a sense of humor' for many is preferred in a partner they're after
A witty personality has been part of me since I was just a boy
humor was conducive to me breaking away from completely coy

Evoking a smile is something I always accomplish without trying
inducing one to laugh so hysterically they cry is most satisfying
Robin Williams brought more faces joy than stars occupying sky
for some incessant joking is a coping mechanism needed to get by

Williams, Pryor, and Carlin were the epitome of funny and clever
The Big Three are "The Cream of the Crop" and will be forever
"Laughter" I've ascertained over the years has medicinal benefit
whatever fills you with elation for even a precious moment is legit

In my life 'laughter' has indubitably been my most significant need
without it 'existence' would be an even more unbearable one indeed

I often think that I am done,
my heart can take no more.
That I am understood by none,
the compassionate close their door.

I often think I should give up,
no more torment, no more hope.
I should just stay here in my rut,
familiarity will help me cope.

But then, someone comes along,
and shows a heart that beats.
To which, there plays a loving song,
of strength gained through defeats.

Someone who says, "All will be well,
sometimes it takes a while.
You will find your way, out of your hell,
and once again you'll smile."

Takes my hand and holds it so tight,
and says, "I'll never let go.
Not 'til I know, you are alright,
no longer bent like a bow."

And at last!, again that nasty gloom,
lifts up it's ugly veil.
The sun shines, flowers are in bloom,
doom came to no avail.

The birds are chirping, ever so sweet,
optimism has yet to end.
My mind is at rest, turmoil obsolete,
thanks to a caring friend.

Hopelessness that engulfed me long ago continues to take a toll
succumbing is imminent if I don't find the cure for my ailing soul
It's gotten more arduous keeping at bay the indignation I deeply feel
constant unwanted thoughts of dying have become scary real

I battle Demons like every person does in some capacity I'd surmise
you can't truly know others because all have something requiring disguise
For way too many years I have contemplated giving in to suicide
I'm still here because strength I've questioned is very alive inside

The will to keep on living was THE one thing I hoped to never lose
my life has been inundated with misery I didn't willingly choose
There are numerous reasons I can't ascend from the dark pit of grief
in my most desperate times I've called on a mythical god for relief

I have been unable to secure joy but thankfully it occasionally stops by
absolute detestation for our nefarious world tops all the reasons why
More often I find myself caring less about waking to another tomorrow
pain heightens knowing so many others are suffering even worse sorrow

To everyone like me struggling to endure this every day fight
'HOPE' we must somehow never allow to escape our sight
This utterly sinister life doesn't resemble a "Gift" at all
when you fall and feel you've reached to tired to stand...Crawl

Let the unconditional love of family be reason you stay
we can certainly wish all misery is going to end someday

~Wanting You ~

I’m in Love with you and your body

The way it fits my hand like a glove

It’s silky firmness that’s filled with
undying Love

Blending in harmony with mine
playing rhapsody music so divine

Two spirits blending as one
tripping the light fantastic of love

Come closer darling, put your hand in mine
Feel it’s tingling sensations

Hold me tight as we both explore
Kiss me my darling I want more!

Feel the fire of my lips kissing
the nape of your neck

Softly blowing kisses in your ear
your eyelids & other wondrous places

When the night has faded into dawn
and the new day has begun

Our love has blended together
And now we are as one ~

The Romantic Poet

The world is on the verge of hell,
Undergoing a terrible spell.
The Angels weep from heaven above,
Watching the world lose all its love.

Innocent people have lost their lives
All for the greed of the propertied.
Wars have ravished any goodness left.
Brought about a lot of hurt and theft.

The world, once pure has been corrupted
With the venomous poison of those who run it.
Those who've been chosen to lead the world,
Manipulate individuals and don't keep their word.

The populace now regrets their decision
To trust mankind in the hands of politicians.
Humanity is shattered because it was all massacred
By the ruling powers of the world.

There is no more love in a world so tough,
Due to the everlasting evil
That has dominated the world primeval.

Although evil has a strong grip,
Good will never let the world slip
Into the hands of those who wish to harm
And lead all good souls to their death.

Good always triumphs,
And overcomes all defiance.

For the flame
That's always burning
For the love
You cannot see

For your soul
That's always yearning
For the you
Still yet to be

There's a fire in a circle
And a path you haven't walked

Whether fast or slow as turtle
It has on your door now knocked

We can live our lives in blindness
We can set ourselves now free

Yet know truth for it is timeless
Be that flame and you shall see

Wandered long and dirty highways
Never found your way back home

This is more than just a word phrase
This will break the blinding dome

Lines and circles doesn't matter
What you are is really you

When the thousand mirrors shatter
You will meet that more than true

There is not a new religion
Just a simple deeper song

Grace will come to you in vision
Know right here it won't be long

Take these broken arrows burn them
Take this shackles of your back

Listen to the sound of real drum
In yourself the fire track

Just stay open in the doorway
Just unfold your light so clear

Sun will break on through the all gray
Feel it in your heart - it's near

Cloaked in thick mist, wait dawn
Sunshine heats, so land is born
Gradual clearing, visually behold
Defined valley, kiwi farming gold

Where water lies, heavy mist covers
Dispelled by sunshine, protective lover
Keeps mystique, romantically alive
In sleeping darkness, life thrives

Inlet of harbor, river-valley-runs
Waiting dawn, when rays of sun
Engulfed by dense, ghost-like-shroud
Keeps land safe, later stands proud

A secret land, where floating mist
Wispy shimmers, as rivers twist
Waiting sunshine, summers day
When land revealed, in nature's way

Love is patient love is kind love won't play games with your mind. Love will love you all the time. Love's not arrogant Love's not rude love can only will only love you. I need love you need love whole world needs love. So pick up love and put down hate before it's too late and you seal your fate. For God is love the devil hate it's quite simple if you just equate. Love is the only way to be saved. Adon

The sadness in our brown eyes as we danced to our lost song
Neither one of us was wrong
We stayed in our relationship way to long
Too much of our love had died
We forgot to keep an open eye
We had nothing but lost love
We tried to bring the relationship back to life
It couldn't survive
there's nothing left but to say good bye
I will always remember the day we fell in love
Good bye to you my lost dove
