Saved
Life is hard to manage on my
own
But on the other hand I have
grown
I've seen a lot in recent times
And been many places one at a
time
I love my new life and the
chance I've been given
To experience so much right
from the beginning
I'm kept warm and safe every
night
In the arms of the

I'Ll Let You In - Rick Parise -
SUSPICIOUS LIES (( collaboration * Rick Parise ))
by~ RICK PARISE
When jealousy is thrown out the door
and compromise is welcomed in, it is then
a novel of strewn pages empty and silent shall
reap enraptured song
For our love of bitter regrets and expectations
shall fall with the setting sun
And within that early morning light
a new love shall

The Lighter Side of Me
I’m not much into phonies
And I love to play the ponies
I spend too much shoppin’
And do too less moppin’
I love my amazing hubby
My fantastic cat, Chubby
Starbuck’s Passion Iced Tea
That trashy Reality TV
My famed DVR recorder
Though not exactly in that order!
I am crazy about my fitness classes
And adorable old men who make passes
'Experts' say I

This Is Me
A little bit of me
Goes a long way
Lucky you get to see today
How this came to be
I grew up sheltered and shy
I don’t know why
I was always quick to cry
Quiet and self-conscious, oh my
Then came along my high school years
I finally broke out of my shell
It was only a matter of time that would tell
How

and work on how to prove it
its been a challenge keeping you to myself
cause other women

A Bite
I talk three different ways
I walk only one
I dress myself with clothes i made
I paint my nails so the nail shops won't get paid
I'm a singer, dancer, painter, writer
And i'm great at tying my shoe
Spongebob is my favorite cartoon
I eat cereal mostly around noon
You can't judge me just because i eat limes plain
And i

I Dunno Why Tears Fall of My Eyes
I don’t know why,
Tears fall of my eyes?
I life,
Many people came and many went away,
Some loved me,
Some were loved by me,
Some respected me,
Some were respected by me.
Today when I sit and think,
I wonder,
Why did I respect them?
Why did I love them?
Who left me,
While I was really needful of a smile.
I don’t know why did

'that Missing Link'
One day after years of searching
for that missing link
he came along, without warning
he meddled with the barricades
I build...
The things I used to protect myself,
fragile me, all exposed
and yet
the steps we took healed us both...
Not realizing that every day
our dependence on others
for validation were being cut away

Because of You
You did many things,
And most you should not be proud of.
You broke my heart,
Made me cry at night,
Went to a police department,
Vandalised a car.
But there is one thing that
I love you for right now,
You inspired me,
The words that I am saying,
The songs that I am singing,
The tears that I'm shedding,
The poems I'm writing
All

A Maverick free verse
The poet precept but if he doesn’t know it, that he is a poet,
is very apt to blow, for many concepts seek to slow it.
A poet knows that between love and life, there is no strife,
and strife cuts as a knife the sweetness of life.
As poetic primal alive is derived it comes

Remember, You Must Be True To Yourself
REMEMBER , YOU MUST BE TRUE TO YOURSELF
It is like magic
Every word, every move is like magic
Abracadabra, there it goes
You are mine and I am yours
But, can you be fooling your eyes!
In a stage play, a drama or a show
Actors will be acting accordingly
It maybe a fiction or maybe a true act
They must perform true

Instruments of Praise
Don’t you love this
Beautiful mix
Beautiful strings of soul
Beautiful melody
Lively lyrics
With freedom, flowing
Fluently,
But not just for show
Oh no
As the violin
Rests between
Certain notes
and the lyrical maestro
Pauses
Drawing
Quick breaths
During stage time
In time
In between lines
Myself, I remind
That everything with breath
Ought give praise
Don’t you love this
God’s instruments
Letting His praises ring
The violinist,
A vessel
Strumming the melodious strings
Making way to their singings
