Healing Heart

The pain you feel when dementia hits,
Is unlike any other pain I believe that exists,
Whether slow or at a fast pace they forget more and more, 
While you're fighting to keep their memories alive but inside you mourn,
Holding onto the love while pretending not to show pain,
The alcohol erasing the memory of the entire relationship you've gained,
Until your seeing a shell of a man you once knew,
Forgetting all the love they shared with you,
The closeness you once had is completely gone,
And every fiber of your being wants to hold on,
And the pain becomes so deep you can't even reach,
And all you can do is pray for him to remember anything,
It's like talking to someone you're meeting for the first time,
All the years of love you shared are erased in their mind,
And it is if they have died right in front of your face,
And you beg God to heal him every single day,
And then you work in the same atmosphere day in and day out,
Searching for remedies, for anything that might help,
And when you see a ray of light in that darkened room,
It is the fuel that tells you not to give up so soon,
So you keep going, because you don't give up on the love,
Until you realize that this isn't enough,
Until you must sacrifice in ways you never thought you could,
Because if it was your choice you never would,
And then your told you have to heal and start over again,
And you never thought you would be single or alone in the end,


Premium Member Love's Dream

My eyes look for you 
My heart bleeds the truth
My spirit enters your soul completely 
When I see you I fall in love all over again

The closeness I feel is excitement uncontested 
To feel you next to me is like heaven real
As I find myself lost without your feel 
The feel of your skin, to hold your hand 
To breathe your scent and kiss your lips 
I find myself falling in love all over again 

To hold you tight I await my time in life 
But missing you is a natural occurrence it seem 
The dreams I have, the plans I dream 
I want more than I bare just waiting your love 
But most of all, my heart flutters with life 
And loving you is a dream come true 
As everyday, love's dream of being two

Behind Reach

You seem behind reach...
if I had the courage to touch
your teary face and stop those tears,
I'd be glad to give you more happiness!

Your beauty is the secret you hide
inside waiting for someone
to discover it and I have 
discovered it by loving you, honey;
what made me fall for you, sweety
was your kindness, every smile 
is a jewel I keep locked in my treasure
chest box as a secret between us
that time will protect from dust...
isn't it a symbol of trust? 

You seem behind reach
when it comes to closeness...
is it something you fear and hide
from me, or is it distrust?
You have to trust me in moments
of weakness, that's when each
doubt make it harder to believe 
that every sigh, every heartbeat
is the life that palpitates inside of us!

You possess soulfulness,
I possess heartfulness
and these are more than enough to feel intense love
to cling us together through our coming storms:
let's entwine tighter than clove,
let's be freer than clouds!

Premium Member I Rise

I come, I rise, I wake-up in the morn;
Co created by my mom and dad and God;
Well\, well, you might find it a bit odd;
But I believe that I've been here before. . .
I rise, I open my eyes and see;
I rise I see the majesty of the Lord;
I see as I rise
I open my eyes and see;
the majesty, the majesty of the Lord;

I rise I fall out of my bed;
I get up I get up out my bed;
Will you, do you listen to what I'm saying
In the morning, in the morn;
I rise unto the Lord;

I said I come, I rise, I awaken in the morn;
I thank God for this day, this new morn;
But I believe that I've been here before...
and for this and other blessings, I rise;
I rise , I open my eyes to see;
I rise, to be whom I was meant to be;
I rise, to the closeness of the ALL MIGHTY;
and for this and more I relize in all this and more I rise;

I wake up get out of bed;
I fall down on my ashly knees, to pray;
I rise awaken in the morn;
praising and thanking God for being born;
I worship HIm I rise
I worship Him I rise;
even before I close my eyes;
I rise, I rise
I wake up then get out of bed;
I fall down on my knees, to pray;
I acknowledge you each and everyday;
Jesus as I rise. . .
Worship Him I rise;
Worship Him I rise;
Worship Him I one day will meet Him in the skies;
I will rise with my whole mouth speaking, and singing His praises;
I will rise with words forever engaging;
And I shall not be afraid, If there be no more days..
In all that I will rise;
I will rise and praise Him with my whole heart;
I will rise and I never will stop;
In my sickness, in my shame;
I won't denounce His name;
With voice I will rise...
Worshiping Him I will rise with my whole mouth;
I rise and praise Him with my whole heart, I rise;
I rise before myself and Satan;
Chances the way I'll be behaving;
I rise with my hands up lifted in the air;
I rise sinner and saved
I don't care, if you even listen;
Noel had the same opposition;
I have no heaven nor hell to put you in;
So I can't judge even if you're a friend;
I must rise to keep up, just to praise Him;
In all that I will rise;
I will rise and praise Him with my whole heart;
I will rise and I never will stop;
In my sickness, in my shame;
I won't denounce His name;
With voice
 I will rise...

Premium Member One Winters Night

the vivid channels of peace removes
the bitterness that would't survive 
life with out peace on earth but on 
one winter's night we get to smile
 
and forgive just for a little while
that one winter's night we settle for love
this last passionate winter's might
that makes the only wish for the baby tonight

is the only being who's words matter 
shall bring the most joy sad with a latter
as the light shined so bright just right
while we dance in heaven thee three kings

as joy to the world brings kisses and hugs
for the time of giving felt more than one day
as the children laugh the muppet's sag
as the beautiful ballot of bells song just so

while the cold breeze warms you in a blanket
an imagination of closeness this winter's night
the vivid day of peace on earth you can say
for christ was born on chrostmas day

Premium Member Enigma


The chaotic times shake the sands of disarray,
settle on the stratified shelf of the disorganized life.
In moments moving with dispersed dust of perturbation,
the truth of trust oscillates on the ruffled ripples of disorder. 

In the bewildered efflux of errant confusion,
everything changes in the cauldron of conundrum.
The mysterious alchemy of mental metamorphosis
reveals the fantasy façade of perplexing transformation.

In the disorderly squall of divesting dismay
my marooned mind is disheveled to a dishabille state,
splinters the secret leitmotif of the embedded emotions,
the confounded cascade of consternation carries them away.

When disparity develops from consuming closeness, 
dancing to the music of mystifying maze makes no sense. 
At the end of the day our riddled roads diverge disoriented,
I choose within ambiguity the one that takes me away from you.

Our differences are like pieces of puzzle called life,
I drift with no rancor out of the realm of extant enigma. 
I won’t explore you if at night you become mystery aurora,
I’d walk on the pathway of my life the way I want, for it’s mine.

Premium Member Oh My Love

OH MY LOVE !

    My thirsty desire oozing with champagne.
    Fill my goblet Dear, come closer, feel the throbbing heart.

    Romantic twilight following mystic sunset
   marveling, mesmerizing mutual musing
   tuned with melody of dulcet dreams
   oozing in full brim of goblet.   

    Ardent ardor craves.
    Ensuing motion cascades in opulence 
    Amour in glamorous glow 
   Tingling passion in flow of fervor.
   Bubbling blood in flood blowing through veins
   Attempt to control temptation of closeness went in vain.
   Lingering urge surges to converge on unison.
   You are mine! I am yours!
   Eternally together forever.

Burning Embers

Burning embers flicker like fireflies 
Aimlessly buzzing the night skies

Beautiful hands of flame 
Reach out to caress all that is within reach
Intimately embracing tree and shrub 
With molten hot arms

Kissing flowers and licking grass 
With its searing tongue and fiery lips
As it breathes its scorching breath 
Of loneliness and desire 
Into the noxious smoke filled air. 

Charred remains 
Are left smoldering and lifeless 
In the wake of a ravenous appetite
For passion and closeness 
That it can never feel

But greedily engulfing and devouring 
Everything in its desire to be held close, 
Until it has consumed everything 
Including the life giving air needed to sustain it

Reducing it to a single starving flame 
That is finally put out of its misery 
By a merciful last breath 
Of a dying wind.

Premium Member Your tricolor shivers have pierced through me, floral animal from dream and nightmare

Your tricolor shivers have pierced through me, floral animal from dream and nightmare,
You appeared like that, as a truth of mine false, good in its pure evil.
From the lion's tail, the mouse's mouth,
you didn't have everything from nothing, from a bone whole and shattered,
frightening, gentle as a threat, poor, horse without bouquet,
wild stepping on a domestic and untamed plain,
undetermined, in a stain of silent and resounding scream,
a quiet storm, sky from thirst, the closeness of distance,
you, human, poison that also sanctifies itself in blasphemy,
quiet animal from old age, eternally living death,
you kissed me for the first time, recently, never,
sewing my wounds, the plain of resurrection from death,
of weeping from successful joys, ugly treasure...
your hair from curved and straight lines, chest to freeze...
Turmoil of darkness
Unravelings of dead stars, sails have filled me with emptiness then,
traitors of freedom, of pleasure, temporary and eternal fear,
in this summer, useless necessity, one real and imaginary,
with honey on both nostrils and a hot winter, cold as fire,
eternal passing one, serious joke, with single multiple luck,
and evil in moments of eternity, my beautiful ugliness planet,
direct road to make, outside your enveloping interior...
Broken mirror in whole
I am the least from all I have ever been in surplus,
your luminous shadow blinds me with its deep black light.
You, the perfect mistake of heaven,
you are my closest stranger,
my ugliest love, demonic and angelic beauty,
the carnivorous flower that loves through devouring,
your absent presence makes me disappear through appearance,
you are everything from nothing that becomes something from everything without nothing,
a death so alive it births dead lives in me,
the sweet bitter poison that heals me through poisoning...
you are my sweetest torture without pain and pleasure,
my last first encounter with the separation that unites us,
my coldest love, hot as burned ice...

Tinted Laughs

when our skin touches 
im left with diluted smells 
like wearing your boyfriend's hoodie 
only its not mine to have 
These smells have become nauseating 
reminding me im only useful for backseats
and undercover kisses
my body is craving closeness 
but im only handed meaningless motions
and tinted glass laughs 
blurring what they really want from me
Love is only a broken teenage dream
my skin isnt what it used to be 
im left with marks 
from those who never truly knew me
Its not mine
But I still choose to love like this 
backseats have become a place where Im seen 
in the same space just another girl
they're always going to replace 
Its something to distract me
from the damaged parts of my body 
they never choose to see
