In the Minds Fixed Eye
VIII

In the minds fixed eye I see five newly discovered graves,              
Headless lions sat atop an impregnable "Triumphal Gate";         
And guileful Cassandra, she laid...

Premium Member The Ruby Rose - Typo Fixed
The ruby rose that I once knew
was graceful, mild, and oh so sweet.
I put down roots near her and grew
to understand she was discreet.

Though in her garden all seems well,
the ruby rose that I once knew
has secrets that she hates to tell.
Her lovely petals hide...

You Could Have Fixed This
You could have fixed this
You were given chance after chance
And you could have fixed this,
But you didn’t

You could have saved the love
You were told time and again
And you could have saved the love,
If you’d just reached for my hand

You could have had your dreams
I would...

'fixed'
The first time someone called you brave, 
It was because you crossed the street without looking. 
You didn’t do it out of bravery; 
You just didn’t think to look. 
But you liked the punch of B on your lips. 

At a time when you weren’t...

Sorrow - Fixed, Orgininal Was Terribly Off Form
Light fades fast into darkness, forever a word of past
Hope hides helpless now, in the midst of this turmoil
Lost lonely sorrow, no pleasure, how long can I last 

Better days will come, to this it's taught stay steadfast
Covered by black storm clouds, faith continues loyal
Light...

Gaze Fixed Out To Sea
I wish to die 
By the Teak rail 
Of a salt weathered deck
A poetic death  you see…
Wrap’t snug as a bug
Warm woolen shawl  round my neck
With my ol’ grizzled dog at my knee
 I’d like to be found
Eyes wide open and round
In a...

Premium Member My Amen Is Fixed
Food nourishes the prayerful and the blind.
This day no mourning is proper,
	but tilted.
Streaming video is no comfort
	when the cold howls outside.
Where are you going with this?
Lead on lead on, you farcical clown.

Makeshift shanties will suffice
	when cold is not remorse,
	and video streams into the window.
Bring up...

Tomorrow Is Another Day (Fixed)
Tomorrow Is Another Day

Tomorrow is another day
Aren't you glad that you survived yesterday?
You can stop holding your breath
 just live your life
You never know when it might be gone
 so open your eyes
Don’t worry,
don’t cry
Just remember
Tomorrow is another day

Everyday holds a meaning
Whether it be truth...

Premium Member Fixing This How I Fixed It
There was one ceiling fan chain
It was short hanging down
The short one controlled the light
So I pondered an idea
I bought a small dream catcher
Attached it to the short chain
Reaching for the pull chain
That was hard to reach...

My Gaze Is Fixed On You
Some like to gaze at stars;
I stare instead at you.

Compared to how you glow,
They sparkle like the moon. 

You light my inner darkness; 
Your power shines so bright. 

You hold the whole night sky
On shoulders blazing tight. 

You raise each crimson sun 
With arms of...

Go Through Hell (Read It Now, I Added and Fixed Most Errors...)
Never in my world have I had anything to fight for, but you
I've been through hell and back only if you knew

We kept our relationship on the down low
We snuck around so that nobody important would know

We had our moments, were goodbye seemed to long
Even...

Star-Fixed Eyes
So sure of all that what might be
A world of possibility
A haven where young hearts might flee
With star-fixed eyes they went to see

Their days a happy melody
Delighting in their company
They spent such moments holding tight
That wishes hid their destiny

Their passion masked reality
As daylight lingered into...

Fixed
In faith, I trusted yet in truth, I lied.
In hope I despaired 
For in those I trusted
I sought to find my heart repaired.

Reparation from a failed addiction,
From being a passionate man
And paying full price for my own indiscretions,
For being who I am.

So I seek solace...
