Silence
Silence once again, no one to share
All of the paintings, they seem to stare
Lost in ones pain, try not to reflect
Drive away the misery, suppress the regret
Loneliness can eat you, just like a disease
Others try to help, with difficult unease
How I long for noise, joyful chatter
Or simple conversation, it would not matter
I know others have feelings like this
Believe there swallowed, by the encompassing abyss
But most clouds have a silver lining, so they say
As there is always good memories, that perfect day
Chin up, get dressed, and time to go out
A chance to meet someone to remove the doubt
If you submit to the thoughts inside your head
You may become one of the walking dead
All of the paintings, they seem to stare
Lost in ones pain, try not to reflect
Drive away the misery, suppress the regret
Loneliness can eat you, just like a disease
Others try to help, with difficult unease
How I long for noise, joyful chatter
Or simple conversation, it would not matter
I know others have feelings like this
Believe there swallowed, by the encompassing abyss
But most clouds have a silver lining, so they say
As there is always good memories, that perfect day
Chin up, get dressed, and time to go out
A chance to meet someone to remove the doubt
If you submit to the thoughts inside your head
You may become one of the walking dead

Have to get up off the floor
Realise its not worth it anymore
Learn to leave you behind
Release the convict in my mind
No more nights alone
waiting for you to come home
No answer on the phone
Having the feeling your not alone
No more impact
changing the way i act
bringing out the worst in me
wanting what could never be
It wont be easy finding somone to take your place
AS my heart floats around, lingering in your space
But i will shut the door from the other side
Locking in the things you use to hide
No more light for me and you
Just a past, that did not last
Its time to let us go
To find a future, where I can glow
Realise its not worth it anymore
Learn to leave you behind
Release the convict in my mind
No more nights alone
waiting for you to come home
No answer on the phone
Having the feeling your not alone
No more impact
changing the way i act
bringing out the worst in me
wanting what could never be
It wont be easy finding somone to take your place
AS my heart floats around, lingering in your space
But i will shut the door from the other side
Locking in the things you use to hide
No more light for me and you
Just a past, that did not last
Its time to let us go
To find a future, where I can glow

Post CommentBrightly Coloured Bubble
*
I watched you float up above me
like a beautiful shiny wavering bubble
rising up in the sky
wonderful colours shone before my eyes
colours so bright my heart leapt
I tried to reach up and touch you
as each day you rose higher and higher
filling the space before me
then gently as you drifted back down towards me
you burst and dissipated in front of my face
*

About this poem:
People come and people gofires and flames
Feelings crawling on my skin
Kiss so deep, i want it again
Gasp of air blows me away
A hold so tight, wanting me to stay
Knowing exactly where to begin
Moves so hot, they could be a sin
Lost in the lust, as we touch
Developing a connection, a s*xual trust
Flowing rythem, running deep
Floating clouds,making rain
Storm so big, it makes a scream
An exiting ride, I shut my eyes
Hearts beeting fast
Want the feeling to last
A fire a flame
A ricashay, no feeling the same
Kiss so deep, i want it again
Gasp of air blows me away
A hold so tight, wanting me to stay
Knowing exactly where to begin
Moves so hot, they could be a sin
Lost in the lust, as we touch
Developing a connection, a s*xual trust
Flowing rythem, running deep
Floating clouds,making rain
Storm so big, it makes a scream
An exiting ride, I shut my eyes
Hearts beeting fast
Want the feeling to last
A fire a flame
A ricashay, no feeling the same

Post CommentMy children
My beautiful children
all running around
laughing and playing
what a wonderful sound
I held you then
I miss you now
I'll bring us back together
some way some how
what happened to us
such a horrible thing
but once together again
our hearts will sing
I love you all so much
and this you can tell
it wont be long
and all will be well
all running around
laughing and playing
what a wonderful sound
I held you then
I miss you now
I'll bring us back together
some way some how
what happened to us
such a horrible thing
but once together again
our hearts will sing
I love you all so much
and this you can tell
it wont be long
and all will be well

Post CommentForgiveness
Please forgive me
for I know not what I do
iniquity in my heart
and sins towards you
I havent been the best
but i'm also not the worst
i'm working on myself
some things I must do first
to make amends
I'm seeing the light
give me some
time to make things right
with a little bit of help
and then you will see
good things can come
from changes in me
for I know not what I do
iniquity in my heart
and sins towards you
I havent been the best
but i'm also not the worst
i'm working on myself
some things I must do first
to make amends
I'm seeing the light
give me some
time to make things right
with a little bit of help
and then you will see
good things can come
from changes in me

About this poem:
A friend needed one that had to do with forgiveness, so this is what i came up with.Chance
Chance
This woman with the lovely blue eyes
Feelings she hides with a well warn disguise
One who stands in front with heart so pure?
Who feels with love that is insecure?
Can she see the patient man from the pack
Problems from the past that she cannot turn back
All cloud the felling that should be true
That is available for me and you
So now I will have to be strong
Maybe I can rite this terrible wrong
And make this woman again complete
Task that I am willing to complete
Drink the feelings that she lets through
Slay the beast and tame the shrew
I know I am not the most attractive man
But my sole is a window, do the best I can
My only wish is that she will let me in
Sure I will control the urge that lies within
Hope that this could leads to romance
I will do the best no to blow my chance

Post CommentEndless questions of time
Life or death? Is the question I ask myself
One-thousand times a day inside without a breath
The answer is more easier said than done
If I think to long than more questions come
What is life? What is death?
What is time? What is mine?
All or nothing
Pain and pleasure is the drama called life
If I feel pleasure is everything alright?
If I am in pain will the world decay?
No the world will be fine either way
One-thousand times a day inside without a breath
The answer is more easier said than done
If I think to long than more questions come
What is life? What is death?
What is time? What is mine?
All or nothing
Pain and pleasure is the drama called life
If I feel pleasure is everything alright?
If I am in pain will the world decay?
No the world will be fine either way

About this poem:
just wanted to typeOne Life, One Love
From the moment I felt you kick,
From the times you made me sick,
From the times you kept me awake,
From the time you were pulled out of me,
I hear that sweet cry, I just wanted you near.
From the moment I held you in my arms, I knew
What life and love was.
As the tears roll down my face,
I touched your little hands, I did not want to let go.
As you grow up your not a little baby anymore but a little man.
So smart, so brave, so much laughter, so much energy, so much light
You bring to us all.
You are what fills my heart with so much love and joy even when you’re bad.
So handsome and smart you are even a little sneak but that’s what little boys are.
You are my life you are my one love, you are my little boy from now till the end of time.
From the times you made me sick,
From the times you kept me awake,
From the time you were pulled out of me,
I hear that sweet cry, I just wanted you near.
From the moment I held you in my arms, I knew

As the tears roll down my face,
I touched your little hands, I did not want to let go.

About this poem:
I wrote this poem for my little boy who is growing up so fast." What Makes Us Fall"
When times are bad and grief is high, what makes us fall.
Friends begin to stray away,what makes us fall.
Fill our car with gas or give our children food, what makes us fall.
The weak becomes the devil's bait, what makes us fall.
Family's homes are lost to debt, what makes us fall
The quest for happiness seems a waste, what makes us fall.
Vacations become a thing of the past, what makes us fall.
Love becomes so hard to hold, what makes us fall
U.S. goods become extinct, what makes us fall
The greed of of others tighten the rope, what makes us fall.
Losing faith in God above, That's what makes us fall
Friends begin to stray away,what makes us fall.
Fill our car with gas or give our children food, what makes us fall.
The weak becomes the devil's bait, what makes us fall.
Family's homes are lost to debt, what makes us fall
The quest for happiness seems a waste, what makes us fall.
Vacations become a thing of the past, what makes us fall.
Love becomes so hard to hold, what makes us fall
U.S. goods become extinct, what makes us fall
The greed of of others tighten the rope, what makes us fall.
Losing faith in God above, That's what makes us fall
