Dear Life
Oh, Life, a canvas of contradictions, a tale of strife,
I pose my questions to you, in search of meaning and life.
Why do the wicked thrive, while the righteous fade?
Why does evil reign, while goodness is oft betrayed?
Why must we toil for sustenance, and pay for earth's delight?
The land, the water, the air – gifts of

Success is Gratitude
Success is gratitude
For answering people's questions
Including those that were not asked
But implied.
And those unsaid questions, I believe
Are the most important
Artists, who are gifted with answers
On which the life of the perceiver sometimes depends
Receive the success they deserve
Fortunate is the human
Who is blessed with answers
Happy is the artist
Who gives back their gift.

Years That Ask, Years That Answer
Winter storm.
Question marks
fall like snow
on shoulders bent
with seeking.
Hollow caverns
where certainty
once lived
echo chambers
of why.
Face pressed
against cold glass.
Fingertips trace
what cannot
be grasped.
Footsteps
soft on unseen paths.
Autumn leaves
crumble
in cupped palms.
Dreams, half-formed,
scatter
like dust
through fingers
that cannot hold.
Shell splits.
Light finds
the crack,
makes

Finding Reality
I hear again and again, of people searching for what is real,
Looking for the answers that they seek is like climbing up a hill.
Their truth and their authentic self, they seldom if ever will find,
If all they do is listen to others and never use their mind.
Based on the things I’ve seen and heard;

DO YOU REALLY NEED ALL THE ANSWERS?
I know you’re still trying to make sense of what happened. Maybe you won’t get all the answers, and maybe that’s not what you need right now. It’s okay to feel heavy this morning. It’s okay if you’re not okay. Letting go without having every reason doesn’t mean you’re giving up. It means you’re choosing

You Have All The Answers
You Have All Of The Answers
You never listened to me.
I’m not blind you see.
You acted like I was dumb,
And stupid.
Like I have no life experience.
Another brick wall.
You took everything for granted.
Never appreciated.
You're so young.
You have all of the answers.
I guess I’m just old.
I

It Always Gets In The Way
I don't have questions
Nor the answers to them
I don't ask
Because I don't know
I don't have love
Nor the definition to it
I don't ask it
Because I know fear
And it gets in the way

Reaching For Answers
Why can't I be happy in life?
Is that truly too much to ask?
I've been forced into depression,
Where I can only sit and bask.
It feels like I have no other emotions
Left inside of me; I can feel.
I'm lost in a state of numbness,

No Answers But Echoes
There are no answers,
just the outgoing tide
leaving a poem written
in the sand to be washed
away when the tide
comes in again.
I am lost in the detail,
the exquisite swirls
and rippled script
of its creation, I explore
each worm excavated hole
as if it hides
a secret truth within
when I know it doesn't.
Meaning is beyond
the cycles of the tides,
beyond my mind
and
