Premium Member Point of No Return
I swore that day, I'd never fall again
With tears of heartbreak dripping from my chin
A wall was built to keep intruders out
To insulate my heart in times of doubt
I thought the feeling died
Felt nothing deep inside
No one could hurt me, even if they tried

Buried in...

I tried to reason with you, but you turned your back on me
Tears formed in my eyes so blue, but you turned your back on me.

When I arranged to meet, you said you were working till late -
Then I saw you out with Sue, but...

It was a cold, rainy September day
Dark clouds rolled above Redemption Bay
And the mist hovered over the old ragged dock
As a young man emerged from behind tall rocks

Each step he took delivered excruciating pain
Leaving him breathless, shivering in pouring rain
Sleep came creeping slowly, scaling his...

The point of no return could be global or individual 
but never is it in the middle. 

It is a horizon of dreams aloft in hope held by tentative
strands of rope that weaken and deny what hearts are
seeking.  It is love, stirred with hate...

We were young and in love
It was a gift from up above

You were my everything 
You caused my heart to zing

You got a brand new job 
Faraway with your uncle Bob

I went with you and left everyone 
Because this heart you had won

Your new job...

The truth stood downcast in the lie,
Antarctica ice is melting;
Faster than scientists told us,
Point of no return upon us.

Warm air and less frigid water,
The truth stood downcast in the lie;
We were told not for centuries,
Ice cliffs hundreds of feet- falling.

All caused by greenhouse emissions,
Ice melting-...

Point Of No Return

Nor here or there we stand before creations
Stardust secretions with loving limitations
Heaven bounded in the lap of lachrymal lure
Multiverse in reverse as we euphorically endure

Immaculate infernal of soul’s conception
Divine destiny draws us to deaths deception
Holographic injections of celestial skies
Soothing stimuli of diffracted...

Point of no return


7pm         All the boys arrive at the sports bar/pub
7:30pm    The championship game begins, first round of drinks
8:00pm    2nd round of beers, Johnny pays is in good mood
8:15pm ...

The Point of No Return
When we were children
We knew nothing of this planet
In the wood we’d build our dens
Play war games with our plastic guns
And cowboys and Indians
Then I’d be the Lone Ranger
Or Roy Rogers with Trigger,
Sledging in the winter
Swimming naked in the lake
In the heat of summer
Playing doctors...

death and dying you did meet
gone, that last heartbeat...

Now halfway through your senior year,
   you'll graduate high school in June.
Dear grandson where did those years go,
   and how did you grow up so soon?

While searching for tree ornaments
   tucked safely in our cellar space,
I found your old...

Point of No Return
Snatch my heart back 
took my dignity back
grab for happiness
fought for peace
seized the drama 
found calmer waters
point of no return

Expired living in misery
departed from abuse 
no more feeling worthless
buried memories
erased thoughts 
deceased feeling bound
vanished bondage
point of no return

Joyous life
smiling again
faded dark days
sunny days
self-confidence lofty
self-love
healed heartache
released...

The Point of no Return

It all started innocently enough,
casual conversation. Just the usual banter at the coffee station. 
A couple of co-workers teasing each other. He liked her laugh. If he was honest, her yellow blouse with pearl buttons was a special treat. The top...
