My Poems

Untitled I

We all do things we can’t explain

To each other, to ourselves

Nor understand, enough to gain.

We do what we can

And say what we must

To get through the day.

Someday I hope we may

Comprehend enough to say...

Unitled II

For dreams we weep

For the love we keep

For the prayers we whisper

When the silence is deep.

The sun will rise

The moon shall set

So each day don’t regret.

The choices we make,

The faces we see

Are all a part

Of our history.

Though dreams we weep

For our hearts so deep

Lost in the derk woods.

For dreams we seek

We turn the page…

After taking a quick peek.

We open our eyes

Through the dried tears

That no longer feel

So threatening.

Our very existence;

Our lives, our dreams

The way we weep

The things we keep.

Untitled III

Sometimes you stand at the edge of disaster

And as you look over the edge

Sometimes you stand at the edge of disaster

And as you look over the edge

You jump

To see if you’ll fall.

Sometimes you stand at the edge of disaster

And as you look over the edge

You jump

To see if anyone will catch you.

Sometimes you stand at the edge of disaster

And you look over the edge

You jump

Jump

To feel what you could not see.

You

You ask me why I love you

You ask me if I really do

Love you, All that is my response-

Loving you is worth the cost.

The blood, the pain

matters not, for with you

by me, unconditionally

all my deepest wounds

are haeled by your lightest touch.

With every touch, every kiss

I desire your soft caress

my body, my mind

my soul, my heart

desire you sweet love.

Every moment, every thought

centers on you-

your gentle- yet strong arms wrapped

tightly around me.

Your arms bring me safets,

your hand gives me strength.

You lips give me faith,

your eyes give me trust,

your smile raises the sun.

Love is not for the weak

or some have said.

I am weak...

but with you,

I am strong.

Dreams

For dreams we weep

For the love we keep

For the prayers we whisper

When the silence is deep.

The sun will rise;

the moon shall set

so each day, don't regret.

The choices we make,

the faces we see

are all a part

of our history.

Though dreams we weep

for our hearts so deep

lost in the dark woods.

For dreams we seek

we turn the page

after taking a quick peek.

We open our eyes

through the dried tears

that no longer threaten

Our very existence;

our lives, our dreams

the way we weep

the things we keep.

Untitled

We turn each page

after a tentative peek

and brave what tomorrow shall bring

With clenched fists

and closed eyes

we jump into the pool of tomorrow

with the knowledge which we are given

we travel through the wildest lands

the most terrifying circumstance

we all face everyday.

The greatest fear

is not what we will face

but daring to face it.

Stare fate in the eye

and blink at your pleasure

walk with style

and stand with grace

Jump into tomorrow

Remember your swimsuit

you might get wet.

Friends

Friends come and go

like flowers, they bloom

and fade.

Beautiful ones are hard to find:

hiding in the guise of everything

and everyone.

But in the time it took

to fall from heaven's grace

the sun rose, and helped me see

the beautiful flower right in front of me.

Silver Springs

Silver springs Bubbling

Along green mountains pass

Suddenly you see

Something unlike You

Or Me

A Pegasus all White

and Gold

A thousand stories

To be told

Much more than a legend

That she defends

A thousand stories

Mirrors unseen

A million dreams gathered

From galaxies afar

A world

Without car

Nor truck or plane

Golden sunlight

Piercing the green

Along green mountains pass

forgotten dreamers

And Dream makers

The truth is forgotten

To remember

to love

To remember

Life

To remember forever

A forgotten stream

Meandering through

Green mountains pass

From which life came

Through thick green moss

The Jungle

There’s a silent cry

As the tigress lie

her newest victim

has submitted to her paw

The jungle is silent

as the moon submits

to a cloud

The tiger’s call

can be heard

All the way

Around the world

where a different tiger lay

his newest victim

the tiger paid

with it’s life-

for one tiger’s dinner

Interstellar Ballet

The sun falls

into the shadow of the earth

as the moon hovers

ready to take center stage

The ballet continues

After intermission,

and snack,

the second half begins.

Of beauty and joy,

the moon’s dance tells

of midnight walks,

and love stories

richer than believable

As the moon’s dance ends,

the sun’s tap dance begins

sending messages of power,

and might,

warning the mysteries of

the night

to scurry away

for the day’s come out to play.

My Sun And My Moon

Like the Sun in the morning

Like the Moon in the night

You’re always shining

and always bright

But like the Sun at Sunset

You disappear from my sky

And like the Moonset

You fade out of my eye

So before you depart

Make sure you promise,

(so as to not break my heart)

that you’ll give me one last kiss.

I’ll be calling for you, until you return,

Until then, my heart will burn.

Some Things that You Never Learn

There are some things that you just can never learn

Like hate,

for example.

How it burns inside all of us like a sun,

burning energy that fuels our actions

Eventually it burns itself out, sometimes

in a blaze of glory, sometimes

in the dark of night

Like love for example,

How it burns inside all of us like a sun

burning energy that fuels our actions

Eventually it burns itself out, sometimes

in a blaze of glory, sometimes

in the dark of night.

A Memory

Silver moon bright

Piercing the deep blue sky

With silver rays of light

A man prepares to fight

A war with great wisdom

And might

The thunder rumbles

As they advance

Toward each other

Swords clash

Blood is poured

And soaks into death

A sword breaks

And the hand shakes

A soul is lost

The silence is broken

As a child begins to cry

She believes this is the same as then

The crowd weeps

As the soldier is carried away

Oh, the memories we keep!

All I Ask Of You

You’re my mother

and I love you

but after all you’ve done for me,

there’s still one thing I dare ask of you

You taken care of me,

the way a cat watches her kittens

and you’ve made sure

that I feel safe and warm

but now,

I no longer am safe and warm

so now I ask,

for you to let a butterfly

spread her wings

and let the wind take her

where God wills

for even a butterfly,

as small as one is,

has to leave her cocoon sooner or later.

So please,

listen to my plea,

and consider carefully

whether I’m better off here,

with you attempting to shelter

me from all the world

or whether it’s better

to let me make my own choice

of whether to go or stay

Sunbeam Starlight

Sunbeams dancing

Red, orange, pink and gold

All shimmering in the Sun

And when the Sun is old

And the day is done

Purple, blue, green and silver

All shining in the moonlight

A slight sliver

of cold and light

Moonlight

Dances across the sky

Mother

You're my mother

I was born from no other

You've been there

Far longer than I could ask

You've always been there

Even when I was unaware

You've stood by me

Even when I cried

Help! They're after me!

You've always been my Mummy

and never shall I let that change

I will always love you

As my mother you'll always be

Silver Light

Up from the shadows they come

Dancing in the silver light

Borne from the moon

Dancing in the silver light

Beyond forbidden eyes

Beyond forgotten ears

Beyond forbidden eyes

They dance till the clock strikes one

Only then is their bewitching done

They dance till the clock strikes one

They dance with laughter and fun

Weaving the story of light

At midnight tonight

They dance with laughter and fun

They weave the story of light

Until the light becomes too bright

They weave the story of light

Just beyond forbidden eyesight

They dance to bring the night

A Wish

A twinkling star

the first one I’ve seen

that was so bright

and had it’s very own gleam.

I made a wish one night

on that bright, little star

and now,

here you are!

My Teddy Bear

I sit and cry

and hold my teddy bear tight

and squeeze as hard as I can

to keep the tears in

but it’s hopeless

just like my dreams

and just like my teddy bear

I suffer

watching the world through glass eyes

Cutting

cutting all my friends

out of my life

cutting the strings of hope

cutting the strings of love

that hold us all together

cutting the quiet

into little shards of noise

cutting the noise

into little shards of quiet

all in my head

cutting family

out of my vision

scraping my soul

one drop of blood at a time

(Note: This poem wasn't about cutting myself, I could never do that, given my aversion to blood and pain, this poem was about cutting myself in non-physical ways)

All The Gold

If all the gold

of all the world

were in my hands tomorrow

I don’t know what I would do

But I’d still choose to be with you.

No Title Necessary

This girl met boy, you see.

But from each other’s grasps, each was torn.

Much like you and I, may be

But She without He, is forlorn.

There’s truth in love

and there’s love in truth

But away flew the love

And disappeared like a childhood tooth.

Yet even the Tooth Fairy believes in trade

and on my pillow sits a note

For through her tears, she did wade

Still, from this note, I quote:

"Have faith in your broken heart, my Dear Sweet Child,

for though your heart be wounded; its size is anything but mild."
