A Place In My Mind

A little quiet hill Sitting very still With a modest pride Slanted curve aside. Every tree's tappered stems Adorned starry diadems Glistening dew of morn The dawn of a day born. Sweetly they slept While then there wept The fallen leaves To which silence heaves. The crystal air to skim The rough edges within And the leafy shelves Refresh themselves. Round the rocky bends The soft morning winds Through blades of grass And time's shadow to pass Against endless streams Of sunny beams. How they wrestle And ever nestled O're the pebbly sand Across the majestic land

Bad Chioces

Life choices have left me struggling and alone,  
Always searching for a place to call  home.
Resentful of others who have what I don't
Under depression's spell, I was more like a drone,
Apprehensively surviving in my world unknown.

Losing my loved ones in various ways
Empty inside, just sleeping for days.
Exhausted by sadness, tears won't go away.

Hopelessly lost on this road filled with strife
Unwilling to listen or take anyone's advise
Reality comes back and slapped me twice
Selfishness can do things that aren't too nice.
Too many bad choices with a really high price.

A Plea To Thee

I'll sit and fill this empty page with words of loneliness and rage. These words are all just pieces of me. Things of me which you refuse to see, pieces of me that were meant to be given to thee as tokens of the love that used to be Why are they so effortlessly tossed aside like useless scraps of debris? Listen to me, please hear my plea, I beg you pain, please let me be.
