The Little Cast Away
Too hot too hot yells the boy then he shouts
with four little waifs on the run he has clout
they jerk him around
by a swimming ground
poor little guy soaked and wet, like a trout
Too hot too hot he cries as he dips his head

Heart Cast Away
Heart Cast Away
The heart, once cast away, is left to wander in the vast expanse of time, searching for solace in memories that now seem distant and surreal.
It's profound journey of healing, filling with moments of heartache and longing. Yet, through it all, the heart remains resilient, slowly finding its way back home. In the

My Homies That Don'T Know Me
My homies that don't know me from the outside in
And wherever home is I feel outside in
I feel inside out
Wide open and shut
I keep silent but inside me i am screaming aloud
I keep trying to learn me how to figure me out
Why do they stencil always try to figure me out
Let me sink to the

Cast Away
The fog rolls in at the loss of a mother…by Poet
climb
into
the last time
you feel cold sheets
against your body
others plump your pillow
you hope to see everyone
before you close your eyes to them
they’ve dressed you in a lovely nightie
cast away opened-back hospital gown
you lay on death’s chest- there’s nothing to fear
painfully know you have to let

Cast Away
cast away this
little poem
beyond the cold brook
cast away the
fairy tale
from a children’s book
toss away this
silly dream
from the dead of night
toss away the
lovely girl
from your bleary sight.
cast away this
ancient chant
from your memory.
cast away the
little poem
and let the past be.

Cast Away Into the Snow
As I drive down this lonely road
Wondering when it will end
I see my heart among the snow
Cold and alone laying with tire tracks
A beautiful sight to the eyes
But to this heart it waits to melt
The sun has not risen in many years
Just waiting for the snow plow
To cast me aside
(This picture is very close to

Cast Away
I am cast off, useless baggage
as I wait like a fixture
outside your door
discarded and ignored.
Oh, daggers of my agony!
I pose a threat
though I know not why
as I wait outside your door.
Am I seeing a dull, nameless puppet?
as I’m yanked and pulled
ripped and torn
as I wait outside your door.
For

Cast Away Your Sorrows and Fears
cast away your sorrows and fears
let go of all the things that weigh you down
and soar into the night sky
past the moon and the stars
and into the cool embrace of the universe
float motionless and look down
on everything that was and everything that is
and everything that is still to be
you may not sleep forever
but don't ever

Cast Away
Waiting for you makes me feel
Like a cast away in Malden
So much golden sand
To slide my bare feet in
My feet feel each hot grain
Fills between each toe
Sun bakes the air around me
As I feel the warm wind blow
My eyes see an endless sight
Of such blue I can't take in
The waves, the crests, the tides
Loneliness,

Cast Away All Doubt
Cast away all doubt and let happiness last
You keep sugarcoating our regrets
Our happiness never came to pass…I’m irritable –
Was our love sublime or was it a crime? A crime?
I keep lying to myself that I don’t have to pay my debts
You hurt me in every way possible
Was I waste of your time? You’re

Cast Away--Wilson the Volleyball
A stranded lone man
talking to a volleyball...
personified friend
though only listens
it gives him inspiration...

Cast Away
Tomorrow never came
And still throughout the deepest of love
So divine, a taste of sweetness
Thoughts controlled by one mind
Hopelessly I'll dream but only for one
I love only one
I've loved only once
Simple minds make powerful love
But who shall I love?
If love only came once
Empty hearts- tasteless thoughts
A sweet gesture before we depart
Whispers, cries of lust
Love stories

Cast Away
Silence me-
Hush my breath,
Whisper a feather, your kiss.
Defy dawn’s fast approach.
Could fate have proclaimed such a beauty,
Golden webs weaved entwining our souls?
Or has God blessed this union,
As our conjurer of love?
Perfection, my dear, is flown long last,
And gifted to the heart.
Sweep me away so that we may stay,
Forever one in eternity.

Cast Away
Cast away she remains,
On the deserted island of sadness
Looking around she wonders
Where has everyone else gone that made her feel loved?
Are they hiding amongst the driftwood memories?
Or have they left her there to die alone...
Tomorrow, she knows the sun will rise again,
But for today she succumbs to the darkness of her mind once more
The waves
