I didnt physically bury my lover today.
I buried my heart, that's lost and fraid.
I buried a soul, that's withered away.
I buried a love, that's departed astray.
I buried a mind, that is lost in space.
I buried a spirit, that use to have grace.
I've buried a beauty, that's faded with age.
My heart, mind, body & soul....i surrender!!! I live no more..

Sorry children, but it's all true..
On December 15,2012 it's all going
down..
At 7:00am. when you walk out to your
front porch to pick up the morning
paper in your slippers the sky will
be an errie red..
You won't think to much of it til you
hear strange sounds getting louder from
beyond the hill..
You shut your door and peer through the
keyhole and you can make out strange
creatures bounding accross the fields..
Hundreds of them..no..thousands..
In a minute you can make out the forms
charging like lighting..
They are vicious hounds from hell with
red eyes and dripping saliva blood..
Suddenly, a clap of thunder shakes the
earth and lighting splits your neighbors
house in two..
You notice that a few of your neighbors
have begun to drag the streets like zombies
and their eyes have been burnt out of their
heads..
You run to the phone to call your husband at
work but the line is dead..and so is he.
Meteorites begin pounding the earth and hail
stones weighing 700 pounds are crushing
buildings like match boxes..
The earth has shifted off it's axis and the sun's
radiation is burning all plant life like tinder..
The moon has cracked apart and the stars are exploding in violent colors
People are coming up out of their graves and trying
to sell you a life insurance policy with low premiums..
You watch the weather man on TV turn into some green
slime and then pop like a bubble..
Your bottom lip begin to drip down on your big toe
and you notice that the cat has run off with your
breasts..The mailman knocks on your door and when you
answer he's nothing but a skull with snakes running
through his eye sockets
You vomit in his face and he thanks you..but still delivers
the mail..
Soon the hounds of hell are tearing your house apart
and their salva is an acid burning holes though the sidwalk..
Vultures with hellish screeches and wings seventy feet wide
begin snatching up bedazed towns people and soaring them up
into clouds of fiery ash
More mutants rise from the dead and grow wings
Flying at sonic speeds..
You begin to feel your body change into deaths
breakfast
You have become super strong and you run down the street
and rip the neighborhood bully's head off just for kicks..
The earth splits in half and you ride into deep space on what was left of your peaceful habitat
The world is now only 300 feet wide and a confused duck along with your mother-in-law blazes into the
eternal night
The moon? Gone.
Your new lawn mower? Zip
The hot chick chick you were
dating? She's history.
Welcome to 2012!

are we all
just a hoard
of writers
i look
at you all
as extended
friends and family
everyone knows me
they know how i feel
about you love

i thought
you love me
or is that
just to be heard
in beautiful paradise
and trying to get
to know me

it was
an amazing experience
who want's to be
a millionaire
the whole thing
just blew my mind
so very beautiful
glowing my inner eye
i never seen anything
really bad that i done
or even sad for that matter
or even what i said
if it is miss interpeted
in any shape nor form
i am so sorry darling
if in any way
i offended you
or upset you
in any way

i thought
that i had something
for real this time
all i have ever wanted
to do sweetest heart
to show you
something beautiful

even over thousands
of miles apart
i adored you
you where my
early morning dew
the stars in the sky
sprinkling light
my fairy tale

you got me honey
hook line and sinker
maybe i am just
very very naive
to thing
you would
love me darling
from so far away

sometimes with
you baby
i feel
such a softness
in my heart
exploding you
like it was fit
to burst

i will shower
you all over
with roses
how i feel
loving you darling
it touched me
in the deepest ocean

your docked
in the port
of my life
wishing i was
all over you honey
butterflying kissing
your neck
whispering softly
i love you

You who demolish me, you whom I love,
be near me. Remain near me when evening,
drunk on the blood of skies,
becomes night, in the other
a sword sheathed in the diamond of stars.
Be near me when night laments or sings,
or when it begins to dance,
its stell-blue anklets ringing with grief.
Be here when longings, long submerged
in the heart’s waters, resurface
and everyone begins to look:
Where is the assasin? In whose sleeve
is hidden the redeeming knife?
And when wine, as it is poured, is the sobbing
of children whom nothing will console–
when nothing holds,
when nothing is:
at that dark hour when night mourns,
be near me, my destroyer, my lover me,
be near me.

your strength is my wing
I do want to ride in
please be gentle
as my weakness
is in the howling wind

I am who I am
you are who you are
but if we choose to be
kind and gentle
with love and respect
we can go very far.

I see smiles
lips that move
the smooth talkin’
with fangs that drool.

In my younger days
would take you on
now that I’m older
here’s my swan song.

No passion to share
just look in my eyes
been used too much
I can read your lies.

Yesterday drifts
connect the dots
you’ll never capture
what’s left in my heart.

So as I drift
and sink...
into the Sphinx
You better run
before you think.

Come my friend..walk
with me
I know the sun is hot
and the day is long
The nights are cold and
lonely, and the road
seems much to long
You go into the city to
feast upon its delights,
and once you've had your
fill you come away empty
Whe you're alone in your
chambers you try to unravel
the mysteries of your own mind
as though it were a toy under
a christmas tree
But what have you found as
you tear the brightly coloured
paper with all its external glitter?
There it was! A little lock box with
a golden key taped to the side..
A small card attached which read:
'Your mind inside.'
Excited, you grab the golden key
and pop open this mysterious box..
You pause for a moment as a frown
falls over your face
Where was your mind?
You feel cheated..
You feel ripped off..
And empty box you cry out?
'Where is my mind you shout
out!?'
For days you remained in your
house refusing to see anyone
Days turned into months, and
then months into years
You became a bitter old man, and
would only drag out your mind box
to see if anything would materialize
Finally when your very old you make
your way to the dusty shelf and take
down your mind box one more time..
You open the little box and just stare at its
emptiness
Overcome with with all your sorrow
and misfortune, you shed a little tear
which falls into the little box
Suddenly the box begins to glow!
You feel a change in your body!
Your wrinkled face begins to feel
smooth
You find yourself back under the
christmas tree again just like when
you first opened the box!
You are young and alive once
again!
All those years searching for your
mind, and yet the golden key would
not reveal her secret until you deposited
a lil tear in the box..
You closed the lil box feeling all warm
inside because you have discovered
that your heart was always the key
to your mind-

When I was in a dark place
lost in depths of sorrow
a bright light glinted at me
gleaming tugging me forward

as slowly my feet dragged me
towards it, it grew and grew
until I reached it at last
and was bathed, washed clean

that light led and guided me
from bitter black despair
surrounding my soul with love
the love of true friends

the light was all of you
reaching out to me
lightening my way
with words of hope

telling me with kindness
never fear we are here
to comfort you and let
me know I am not alone

Theres a monster that lives inside of my closet
and he looks just like me
He's awakened by the silence of darkness
because he cannot sleep
He has electric eyes
and they are filled with so many of his dreams
But along with inspiration they fall away into a great deep nothing
Sometimes I can hear him whispering scary things
from underneath my bed
But at times I just think he's alone and he just wants a friend
Other times I go into the bathroom
and I repeat his name
Then I turn the light back on just to see his face again
But what I see coming through in the mirror is a forgotten life
Then I think maybe he's not that scary he just wears a disguise
And when I close the door I see his silhouette at the end of the hall
I close my eyes and realize there is no one at all
Then the silence is abruptly broken by a telephone ring
I pick it up to say hello, but I can only hear screams
But I know now that I'm not being haunted
this is all just in my head
A mixture of over thinking about the shit I just want to forget

My self destructive button has been enabled
As I carve out the first piece for my table
Where I will sit alone having a dinner made for two
I watch the candles slowly burn until darkness fills the room
Then I light a cigarette to give myself an excuse
Tomorrow will be better if I choose
I know nothing in this world will last forever
Except the bitterness of asking God for favors
All I have I hold so dear to me
But it escapes through my eyes as they begin to bleed
Tomorrow will the angels sing a song for peace
I pull the covers to my neck, but I just cant sleep
I feel the presence of the devil inside my room
Satisfied that my love has been consumed
But I will find my way back into the morning light
I may be down but I wont give up the fight
You can bend my will, but I will never break
Tomorrow soon will come giving me another day
So I close my heart with my hands and face the night alone
Suddenly my shivers are gone as I embrace the cold
Before I know it tomorrows sunshine fills the room
And outside of my window I watch a flower bloom
Here and there and then I'm back here again
Sitting at my table without my only friend
