Within the pails of shattered dreams,
the lies of tongues, twisted and foul.
Beneath the tears of molten streams,
the jest of minds, riven with scowl.
Does it matter anymore?
Straight into my heart's descent,
far below a life's ascent.
What's left to adore?
Left alone to face despair,
to suffocate in abundant air.
What's not to abhor?
Through the years, I kissed your pain,
I faced your fears, I took the blame.
Your restless heart, no one can tame,
my freedom now begets your shame.
It doesn't matter anymore.

The World calls her a slut;-
In reality, she's a High Priestess.
Not seeking the World's riches
She burns as she finds.
The World calls him a player
In reality, he is a man on the Road.
Being made Whole
By the kindness of a stranger.
What the common people think
Means nothing to their Quest.
It is only kindness and understanding
That brings them together.
A Circle is being made complete.
This is a Higher Love.

'Wanted'... a woman to make me feel like I've not felt before
that one elusive love I have forever been longing for
A woman to dispense joy I was convinced I'd never know
with ability to reignite desires that took leave long ago
An old-fashion gal owning a hot bod and her natural face
a sexy easy-going girl with genuine class and grace
A woman who's touch alone causes a goose-bump shiver
desirability that induces me to uncontrollably quiver
'Wanted'! A woman always eager to be passionate lovers
okay with parading all her naked beauty outside the covers
I want a 'LADY' a majority of women don't know how to be
inner beauty so aglow even the blind could easily see
First and foremost she must be 100% real not fake
our harmonious match negates potential heartache
'Wanted'.. the woman closest to resembling all the above
one after the exact same thing I yearn for...Lasting Love

The greatest story book ever claims a god created the Heavens and Earth
the vengeful deity also gave humans what he called 'The Gift' of birth
Nowhere does it say he purposely decided perpetual grief would be our fate
an all knowing surely knew 'Faith and Hope' in him had an expiration date
Humans NEED to feel this life somehow actually has meaning
none of significance is where my realistic thoughts are leaning
People of reason shouldn't believe some fictitious almighty exist
what kind of Loving Merciful God lets innocent suffer and evil persist
This life is symbolic of a very precarious Roller Coaster ride
lurking around every corner is wear potential fears reside
All the ups and downs indicative of how you're often feeling
our so-called 'Gift of Life' was guaranteed to keep us reeling
I couldn't worship anything that in no way depicts perfect or nice
don't question HE who we can't confirm is even real or pay a price
Again I declare I've lost faith but still have as much hope as ANY
something is deserving of faith and in Mother Nature I have plenty

~ Seeking a lover ~
Does this sound like you ~
Did you read my profile, I’m so lonesome & Blue!
Saving my love for someone, especially someone like you
Wanting a lover that’s honest & true
Can’t stand a liar, they just wouldn’t do!
Wanted that someone, I really could care for
Just a simple question, could it be you?
Love is awaiting just around the Corner
I’m here ~ Please let us share
Are you my special one ~
Lonely tonight, wanting to be held
Without a special shoulder to cry on
I could be your needed one to hold lovingly close
Are you my special one, that I want to love the most!
Are your dreams heartbreaking & lonely too?
~ Maybe I’m your special one that’s meant just for you ~
Wanted a lover for more than one night
Where is the one that I want to hold tight
One for you to spoil and make eternally yours
Oh! Where is my lover, that was meant just for me!
How long have you been waiting in dreamland for a lover that’s right
Oh! How I want you especially tonight!

Why am i lost when i want to belong
to find the place i need to keep searching and have to be strong
My life is surrounded by people who feel totally wrong
I have to keep restraint and not loosen my tongue
I only want some love inside of my heart
if only i could find her it would be a start
just someone caring that makes me feel real
then my heart would mend and then finally heal
If your reading this and know this could be you
send me a wink or message which would give me a clue
I would love to find you in time for new year
and embrace and kiss you as we both say happy new year

About this poem:
Its a poem about the struggle to find true love and a sense of not belonging or connecting with the people and culture around you=as if fate need,s to move you to another faith some place else=so the poem is also like a diary reference to look back on to see if change which is badly needed =happens,

LOVE IS SOMTHING THE PARANORMAL CAN NOT SCARE,
THE SUPERNATURAL CANT PENETRATE,
WITCHES CANT CURSE,
SHADOWS CANT KEEP UP WITH,
DAYLIGHT MAKES WAY FOR IT,
A CHEST POUNDS WITH IT,
A HEART CAN BREAK BECAUSE OF IT,
ADRENALIN ADDS FUEL TO IT,
WHEN TWO IN LOVE TOUCH, KISMET ENERGIES ARE THROWN INTO KAOS,
A MIND BLOWING, HEAD LIGHTNESS, HEART RACING SHIVER.
THATS LOVE

Marijuana entered my world the first time at Twelve years old
the best stuff I recall smoking was literally the color Gold
It's about damn time those seeking relief are now legally able
despite medicinal benefits it wont negate it's negative label
It should be legalized for personal use NOW opposed to later
having no personal knowledge shouldn't make you such a hater
Our Nation preaches it's about freedom but deny adults their choice
let the country vote so "We the People" can be the deciding voice
Let's demonize Marijuana while continuing to let alcohol devastate
whats right about those ignorant about Cannabis deciding it's fate
The most fallacious remark about pot is it leads to other drug abuse
TOTAL BULLSHIT that has long been oppositions ONE go to excuse
If it's born naturally from this Earth government shouldn't have any say
America incessantly overstepping their bounds is simply their unjust way
Why not ease stress for the millions who know Marijuana is actually alright
The 'freedom' to inhale marijuana should be every mature adults right!

Not every diamond seemed as you
You always felt being a silver.
You were so precious to others,
But underestimated by self
The only Diamond
Not for no confidence, but to make it easy for people
To reach or get a diamond that queens ever wished to have.
You were so kind that none found as you,
No one loved you the way you loved to be theirs.
You were so lucky to be this diamond that
None had the intelligence to know your priceless worth,
You helped everyone to ease it for them to know you
They always failed forever.
The diamond that people valued was to be sold,
But you were being free, none got to you because you were free and priceless free
