Best Seems Poems

On the edge of the sand 

I sit alone 'n perpetual solitude

where I am least without you

Embracing a worn out sweater

I recall your name 

written in the stars

I recall your life 

carved upon my heart

This heart which never lived

 to know love's depth

Smudged lashes flutter

 as fallen dewdrops trickle

 across the pale glow of my...

When All Hope And Relief Seems Gone
        ( Loss of Hope) (Part One)

Today my sad spirit rides long dark rails
as massive storms lash and churn great blue seas
Lost in deepest of blues, Hope's sweet hand fails
as I crash on broken and jagged trees.

Far beneath a once great and...

Yesterday I was on such a high
Today I just want to sit and cry
Why did I say that cutting word?
Forgive me please I’m just a bird

Sometimes we misinterpret what’s been said
We get it wrong it’s all in our head
Saying sorry is really really hard
What was said caught me off guard

You’ve been really good to me

Santa had an helper called Heather
and 4 little elf manager helpers
She told them to be nice
and give lots of advice
so all us call takers work together  .

There once was a call centre agent
who wanted a manager to help her .
No manager  could be found
they had all gone to ground.
Its tough to get help...

My God your road seems so long;
What I did do is sing Him a song;
Sins confess;
He will bless;
In Your arms know that I belong.

I was but a boy
You seemed almost a toy,
So young, and in love,
We fit just like a glove

You said, "All I can offer you,
Is a love that time can not destroy"
Oh boy!, Oh boy!!
It filled me full of joy.

Nineteen was I
Sixteen you were,
Living in our house,
My Mom, you loved her...

My father, you helped him
 build...

You believe i'm happy when you take a look at me
But i'm in so much pain you see,
Just take a glimps in my eye's and
You will see
My looks are not what they seem to be

You believe I live a great life
Don't lie, I heard your whispers and
I seen your stares
Just walk a mile in my...

Since forever it seems, I saw my love go
       while endless from me
                               are verses that flow

My torrents of...

When skies are puzzled clouds of pain
                             It’s easy to invite the rain
The pieces fit or so it seems

I realize I was lifeless before today
Going through the motions
But empty and lacking passion
On standby waiting 
Yet trying to keep up
I didn’t fool anyone
Let alone you
I could tell you were disappointed
You expected more
Because you had caught that glimpse 
Of what was once there
A potential waiting to blossom
You had seen it and
As time passed by you...

There, that is our secret: go to sleep!
You will wake, and remember, and understand

Forever Seems Forever Away

On her little pillow, pink and silk, spreads
her lovely brunette locks, locked
forever, as forever goes. Only God knows.

Forever turned and pointing, with a shock
of red hair, brother’s hand secured in mom’s.
A Rockwell brush masterpiece, if...

It seems like only yesterday
I heard your first cry
But today you spread your wings
And discover how to fly.

It seems like only yesterday
I held your tiny hand
But today you hold your diploma
And make an independent stand.

It seems like only yesterday
I dressed you in ruffles and lace
But today you have your own style
And search for your own...
