Long My heart aches for you Poems

“I am NOT like my father!!!
You say that again, I’m going to kill you!”

I shrivel up in shame
For, I am not to blame
For the shenanigans you put me through so many times
Sometimes, I wish I...

REGENERATE :

Doctorated at a premium university,
Lost his concentration to absurdity,
Discarded his desire for rationality. 
Sorry for this dude's unfortunate category.
As solemn as his heart aches,
Peace was lost from the face.
Deep troubles that he stake,
Wrong squad...

Ledger of Love

In the dim-lit chambers of the Victorian home,
Resides a wife, her heart a silent tome.
Once, love’s flame burned bright within her breast,
But now a thin whisp, a ghostly jest.

Her gaze averts from her...

Though my heart was broken because I never knew you, my unborn, unknown, unfamiliar thought, the one that was much more than an inkling, yet never as familiar as the whisper of a hope. Though...

Alone, sometimes – with no one to confide in,
No one to depend on, no one willing to share my heart,
No one willing to share the sorrows, the hurt,
No one who understands how very sad I’ve...

3:01

Its midnight,
And it’s settling in.
I’ve been home
Just a few hours.
Comfortable in my home,
At ease with my hobbies.
But then I feel it.
It starts with a tingling,
All over; inescapable.
But then its gone.
Like it was never even there.
And...

If I could go back and do it all again,
I would have NEVER  let you say goodbye my friend.
Want to go back to the way things used to be
To the place where u got...

Four of eight decades rest in the past
So fortunate but how long can this last
I’ve romanced, loved and married
Living a life ever so harried

Raising a family, I’ve worked hard
A successful career achieved without fear
I’ve traveled...

In the depths of my wandering thoughts, I turn back to 1989,
A time of uninterrupted innocence, a veil of unknowing that covered my mind,
Floating in a sea of uncertainty, where understanding was but an echo,

As I am writing this poem, my heart aches with sorrow.
Yet, a smile is on my face remembering you, knowing
that you loved me, wishing I could hug you tight and
bury my face on your shoulder...

Deep within the earth, are screams so loud
Where the souls of many are chained and bound
Such misery, wailing and nashing of teeth
As fire and brimstone boils souls beneath

The smoke of their torment rises forever
They have...

Being sick with a snotty nose
A cough, fatigue, one of those colds???
For goodness sake's everyone knows
Grandmothers are too sophicated 
To wear anything but fancy clothes
Surely not a Kleenex box attached
To their chair, and looking unkempt

We danced in the downpour

The rains falls
not hard, more of a drizzle
this late Winter night
leaning on the light post
across the street,
watching the light in your window,
glowing slats through mini blinds,
outlines of your silhouette,
damp steel seeping...

There you are
face to face with me on Skype
thousands of miles away.
A grown man, but still my son,

You are there.

You tell me you are safe– 
after all, you are...

I ask myself...what is love?
But the answer...the answer never comes
Tonight, sitting alone with nothing but my thoughts to keep me warm
I wonder what love is
I wonder if his heart aches for me

I ask myself...what is...

(Chorus)
These days
Difficult to explain
It's not charades
Been truly feeling strange
Close and far from grass blades
Seeking a way out the maze
Not sure if my soul can be saved
Or if I'll burn in flames
(Chorus)

(Verse 1)
Hearts of gold

These days, wet – with Linda, & Melanie .

Tears fall like dying leaves, their dust, blowing into my eyes.
Tears slide down my cheeks, slip off my chin, fall onto my shoulders.
They, given birth, created by...

Up on the winding mountain,
there is a structure we knew so well— 
now consumed by red, devoured in flame. 
It was our shelter, a meeting place 
of like minds, a refuge against life’s weight,
