A Mother's Worst Nightmare

a cold stone bears his name
grief pours onto his green plot
prostrated mom shouts "why?"

Rendezvous

the sun takes its leave
to her abode he is led
secrets are made in the dark

Nayla's Pain

sun shines bleak, cold winds whip
death's sting floods her tender eyes
daddy is laid to rest

The Last Dance

Bell tolls at midnight
Her glass slipper he shatters
Danced on borrow time

Im Done

When the HIGH ends
and the CrAsH begins
my door bell
please don't ring
my cell phone
please don't call
for I will
no longer be there
to break your fall

No Happy New Year For the Bereaved

midnight explodes, cheers, sings
life for the new year begins
a mother still wears black

Forever Sure

Forever more...
is how I answered her

She asked me how long
I would love her for
forever more
no less no more
I swore

No high wall or strong door
I'm sure
and my word I gave
she my love
and my soul her slave
Forever sure

My Rival Is In a Silver Flask

He reaches for his genie in a silver flask
"Oh Yeah...do me babeeee"- he laughs  
His every wish is her every command      
And he is her true and devoted man    
          
She is so fluid and so golden brown         
So smooth and so warm, going down      
He's two sheets in the wind by early mid day    
"That's how we do it, everyday" - he says
  
My rival is in that silver flask
Uhg... and who can compete with that? - I ask

Just a Facade

Chilvary met it's demise
Once the words "I Do" was declared
And his diamond cuff was secured
On her left third finger with care

Serenity

street lamps spotlighting the
dainty white crystals falling
night is still - streets glisten
