Dark Skighs

The darkest skighs lurk
above my tearful eyes.
I stand there looking up
for even a shimmer of light,
and it starts to pour.
The rain falls, streaming
my cheeks, mixing with
the tears.
Completely drenched now,
I start to shiver.
My mind is drifting
to a warm fire - lit room,
where flames are dancing.
That is when he appeared,
ripping my mind back
to the bitter cold present.
I gazed into his eyes.
I saw the light I was
searching for and felt a
wave of sunlight wash
over me.  I felt safe.
It stopped raining.

Darkness

Sometimes I feel like I'm
sitting alone in a world
of darkness, filled with
shallow people.
Lonliness overtakes me,
into a world of saddness
and despair.
In this world,
not one single person is smiling.
I want so much to be in
the colorful world with
laughter and happiness.
I was born in a dark
room with evil minds,
killing intentions and dark souls.
Trying to light my feelings,
I trip and fall into the
darkest hour of life.
I live in a world sick
and chaotic, hoping one day
it'll change.
I struggle to find the
candle of light, the
candle of goodness.
Mad scroundrels and
crying angels suffer deeply
and start to decay.
I sleep, drifting into a
peaceful place, I dream
true of amnesty.
Withering away to nothing,
I dream peacefully.
I achieve the inconceivable.
There was a light coming from
a little crack in the skigh.
The barrier of darkness and
corruption that surrounded
the Earth, crumbled.
It disappeared into the air
like a black fog.
The extinction of humans almost.
My dream though cured the despair.
Dream wise and dream true or before
you know it, this poem will come true.

Back To Index.
A flower shines on my wall,
a reflection somewhere from the sun.
As the sun hides behind a
fluffy cloud, the reflected
flower slowly fades.
It is gone.  I wonder when
I will see it again.
Feeling creative today, I write
this poem, wondering if I
should be playing my guitar.
But mom is sleeping, I
wish not to wake her.
Maybe draw a picture, my
mind is blank, can not
think of a thing.
My bird clock sounds
quietly, for I have the lights off.
Often I have asked for
an angel to watch over me.
I wish to feel his presence.
I can hear Snoopy constantly
flying his plane on windy days.
He used to keep me awake, but
it is such a familiar sound now.
Many emotions have I
experienced within this year,
much has happened.
Yet i feel my life hasn't
progressed much.  I am where
I was one year ago.
Wondering, wishing, hoping.
The sun is back and
the flower is gone.
I love you Wesley,
my son, my angel.
