Sugar-Coated Lies
I saw the world different today as I looked through your eyes.
How differently we perceive things as you sugar-coat your lies.

Your vision was filled with adventure as that's how you like to roll.
Never stopping to consider about the hearts that you stole.

You see women as...

Premium Member Caramel Coated Promise
A caramel coated promise on a wisened old man's couch. Living in a sugar coated world 
falling into an oblivious mass of thinness and frailty. Not yet strong--Tough, no; shy, not 
either. Strength and endurance as rocky as the West coast wearing petticoats, ringing bells...

Candy Coated Memories

Remembering the days of old
and standing there in line.
Watching all the people pass
holding your hand in mine.

Bell bottom jeans and flared out sleeves
when what far out meant was groovy.
M&Ms and popcorn
while we're watching some old movie.

Stealing kisses in the dark
being watched by unseen...

Candy-Coated Sediment
I thought I was complex...
Multifaceted, divinely complicated
But I was very, very mistaken
You read me like I was playing cards with my hand tattooed on my cheeks

I fell for your charm, your depth...
your candy-coated sediment
Fortunately you fell a bit short of your goal of destroying me
Luckily...

A Candy Coated Jesus
Why is it that we always try
To candy coat the truth.
We treat our congregations like
Impressionable youth.

We let them think they do enough
In following their goal,
By tending to their own affairs,
And saving their own soul.

But anyone can save themselves,
For if such deeds sufficed,
A lighter path would...

Premium Member Sugar Coated Lies
You’re a liar and a cheat
Just like a dog on heat

You lurk behind a cobweb thin disguise
and try so hard to fool the guys
But I’ve seen the way you try play the field


You’ve tried your best to manipulate me
Listen up honey, I’m not blind I...

Candy-Coated Dreams
Spearmint grass and cotton candy trees
Banana palms and coconut breeze
Fiery cinnamonworks to glisten the skies
Apple turnovers and cherry-filled pies

Tiny teacup cookies with sugar plates
Sweet cranberry sauce and jellied dates
Chocolate clouds with a banana-split sun
Delicate roses taste like raspberry gum

Juicy sweet treats in a world of...

Chocolate-Coated Memories
Chocolate-coated memories of my morning meal
fill my bowl to the top. I could get not get enough
of the sweetest children's breakfast cereal. 
I was more than crazy for my delicious "puffs".

My mother will confirm my cocoa obsession.
I dug in only after the milk turned chocolaty.
Yes,...

Candy Coated Wreck
Paperless dolls and run-less runs –
Roller coaster rides and fun-less fun.
Hopscotch and blisters; banana-seat bikes –
Hand games and shout-backs too.

Quiet-less walks at 3:00 in the morn –
Virtual stranger rides with indecency.
Cracker-jacks and white wine spritzers –
Early morning-midnight bizarre.

Hellish targets for our holy aims –
Lipsticks red...

Sugar Coated
A lot of people are still
Sugar coated on the outside
People think they are so sweet
They hardly ever seen 'em cry

They hide their emotions inside
Broken hearted, lonely and hurt
Feel inside they have died
Nobody knows how they truly feel

They wander aimlessly through life
Giving up all hope for...

Candy Coated Curse
don't believe anything you hear...best beware and stay bold
everything that glitters is not gold
a smiling face can hide a heart of stone
singing the venomous verse...driving the hell bound herse
poison lookin pure...candy coated curse

don't drink the kool-aid just because it sparkles in the glass
wanna be first...

Premium Member Wild Words
My words in sonnets, haiku, or "fences"
Only for you my endearing true love
Worry about voice, rhymes, and tenses
Only for you my prettiest pet dove

Carefully I slip each word on your string
Meaningfully picked and perfectly placed
To split your heart open and hear you sing
Sweet, sultry nothings...
