The Illusions of Love
"Illusions of Love" Judged at every stage, condemned from the start, Labelled and demonized—torn apart. Mistreated, ill-treated, seen as a threat, Running for safety but never safe yet. Love, an illusion, elusive at best, A dream we chase but never possess. Mother, grandmother, lover, or wife— All turn cold, cutting deep like a knife. From society’s glare to the home’s dark gaze, The criticism burns...

Reflection of redemption
A thief, a murderer, an arsonist Before all these I was someone’s child An embezzler, a liar, a con artist Before all this I had big hopes and plans Yes I did it That I don't deny But what gives you the right to decide If I'm worthy of my life Pretenders are worse than murderers Yet you sit so highly on your horse Perched...

Premium Member Recollections of a condemned man
178 months, 129940 hours, now only 10 minutes remain. Sitting in cold eerie darkness, he observes the rhythm of water drops, slowly wipes away streams of sweat with his withered trembling hands. That aching fear, gnawing in his fevered brain, spasms of fear demanding flight yet none to be had, his inner soul asking why he had lost his way why had his sad...

How My Eyes Condemned By My Heart
In this solitude cold morning, I see you in stripe. With umbrella atop your head And a pocketful of your hand, You walk gracefully with filmed legs. My two eyes were deep and mumble My skin was warm against the cold wind. Then, you're nearing towards me I just look to the horizon When you smile. Time, you're passing...

Eternally Condemned
I felt like I could be eternally grateful forever. But really that promise to be grateful was a curse. Those tears that used to be innocent- Now make me feel like I deserve to be condemned. The more I wait graciously- The more I rule out solutions. It feels like I was given a second chance at...

Condemned
There is some part of me that is still capable. There is some part of me that is still coherent. He says I can leave and be done. I’ll be in agony if I go home. He says they will keep me comfortable here. I don't know- I am not a doctor. There is some...

Condemned To Repeat
The Pharisees vengeance, unleashing again To kill a ‘false’ prophet, their fear redescends The cross is made ready, like ages before The nails though still rusty, hammer deep and secure Their memories short sighted, rejecting the fact The last one they crucified… alive and intact A new Resurrection they’re about to ensure Through hatred and envy —damnation procured (For Sister Marcella: January, 2021)...

A simple message Ma'am, God loves you. "Yes," she says, "I know." Yet tears begin to flow. How wicked is that plan That condemns a man to God And also God to man. That condemnation does not cease, And so often false believed, Robs us of all heaven's peace....

To guard the dreaded secrets of his tomb I bid the smiling stoic stay away this twisted fallacy - this silent womb can know no peace while evil has its way No hope can ever blow against its face fan the smoldering embers of its eyes nor gentle touch its ugliness retrace for even evil whimpers as it dies Forgive the fiend release...
