The Lie Birthed the TruthConstricted,
Conflicted
When your
Addicted,
Distortion
Distraction
Instant satisfaction.
Its promises lies
Left to die
Empty, cold and bare
With nobody there
A whisper in the breeze
Pleads with this disease
The noise gets in the way
Screaming…do not pray
For it knows the power
Especially, in this hour
All longings and desires
Are dissolved by a spiritual fire
All appetites of despair
Are no...

I Was Birthed In the Middle of the Middle AgesA BUTTERFLIGHT’S MR. RIGHT

You were exhausted even though it wasn’t very late
So upon your pillow placed placidly lay comforted by soft

The Best Any Mother Ever Birthed and RearedThe Best Any Mother Ever Birthed And Reared
He stared back at his life amazed
a scattering of miracles here and there
many cried out that he was crazed
when he gave that stern look and stare
Back there vast plains loudly waved
forested jungles crept up so very slow

Half BirthedThis is the first time I ever opened my eyes
The floods flushed away all my cries.
Lying comfy in this warm bed chamber.
My life, so far, is tied to this loving member.
Sometimes I hear singing, other times laughing
When something pokes me, I come back kicking
Some may...

After the Breakup, Misery Birthed JoyAfter the breakup, misery birthed new joy
I left you my old hat and dirty brown coat
now be happy and don't gloat
You gave me far more agonizing hurt than joy
as you broke me like an unwanted toy
So very tempted to leave...

Aries Birthed By CancerAggressive pursuit for what I desire
Reigned in by none, my sign burns of fire
Instinctually drawn to lead, not follow
Eager to conquer, my pride I can't swallow
Savoring life with every breadth of my being
Bold thinking, quick to impress
Intelligent, witty....anger makes me quick to digress
Relishing spontaneity as...

What spell, what charm, what incantation,
Do you hind beneath your palms
That even the stars shine down only on
You the moment you exit...

SilenceSilence, when fills my mind,
random words tend to make sentences.
Sentences seldom having an actual reason to be made at all.
Do they?? No. Then why do they spawn.?
To shush the loud silence that birthed them all.
