I’m writing of my neighbor,
Who sadly passed away.
She planted the poetry seed,
Of the poems you read today.
A piece of me left with her,
The day her casket closed.
She spawned my poetic inception,
For her, my work’s composed.
It’s been eleven lonely years;
Her poetic sun set, to never rise.
I’m still in mourning far from setting,
Illuminating the poetic skies.
Her presence cast infectious beauty,
But her life’s light untimely set.
Leaving a wealth of memory,
That my heart will never forget.
Her poems speak forever,
Reminding my tortured soul.
Of their creator’s radiance,
That sadly had to go.
I’m up here with other stars;
My poetic rays sting the eyes.
It's my time of day to shine,
And grace the poetic skies.

Branded, tracked, and electronically lo-jacked
Forever part of the system

Cataloged, tethered, and bound by a digital rope

A sequence of numbers

Through the cyber fog
You are a number, not a name

Log in, sign on, and punch the clock
My obedient tax paying flock
For the masses and your little number
You have been introduced

Eric (and sometimes not)
Christmas and birthdays have now past.
The hustle and bustle is now done
The pain in my heart still does outlast,
Even though another year has begun.
Another year for me to grieve,
Another year for me to get through.
No longer the mom that is so naïve,
Yet my dreams I still pursue.
There are times I just feel
That I am going through the motions.
Nothing I do seems real,
Yet tears shed can fill all the oceans.
One day down and now there is tomorrow
For it is a day to really dread
As I am still so full of sorrow
And now I am the walking dead.
Yet, as dead as I am
I can still move on
Knowing I am no mild lamb,
Yet my children are still gone.
Maybe tomorrow something will change
Maybe, just maybe, I can smile more
And not seem ever so strange
Nor, hopefully, others I no longer bore.
I know I am a contradiction
Wanting more and grasping straws
Yet always speaking with conviction
Even though I am still so very raw.
Tomorrow is an entirely new day
Yesterday is now long gone
I shall continue to daily pray
While trying not to be withdrawn.
Yet, I am who I am
This agony I will try to shed
As tomorrow comes like a ram
I pray I am no longer the walking dead.
I sit and wonder each and every day,
Why with you did I stay?
Was it truly because
It was just the way it was?
Maybe it was because I felt love does endure.
Or maybe just maybe I was not so sure.
Maybe it was my price to pay,
For getting my children taken away.
Maybe being black and blue,
Could match the emotional pain I was going through.
Maybe it can never be enough,
You see this pain is just too rough!
I tried to change you and me.
For now I know that was never to be.
Now the time has come to let you go,
But the pain of you is all I know.
The good times that we had,
Will always be outweighed by the bad.
I wish I could forget us even from the start,
But unfortunately you still have a piece of my heart.
I never thought I would have this to say,
You are the one regret I have to this day!
You cost me more than heartache and pain.
You made me feel so insane.
I may never know all my reasons for staying,
As to this day I am still paying.
I have now walked away from you,
To try to start life anew.
The day has come, who knew?
The day that I regret ever loving you.
Another sleepless night alone,
as thoughts raced through my head,
thinking about that day you left,
and the last words that you said.
I wake up several times at night,
reaching for an empty space,
hoping all was just a dream,
and I’d wake to see your face.
Never does a day pass by,
when I don’t wonder how you feel,
and when I start to really worry,
I just bow my head and kneel.
“Please god be his eyes,
when his duty is in the field,
bring him home safe and sound,
god please protect him, and be his shield.”
Every time i say those words,
a wave of calmness comes over me,
and I’m finally able to close my eyes,
to finally get some sleep.
Oh yes, our relationship.
It started out just fine.
Everything was real good.
It really was divine.
You were so romantic, funny, and kind.
Had my rose colored glasses on, boy was I blind.
And before we knew it we were entwined.
There was you and me, me and you.
That is how is went.
Things had changed very fast.
It seemed in a good way.
Then the beatings started, every single day.
This continued for about a year.
With each new time, I felt..... death was getting near.
This was bad, it wasn't`t good.
How could I let this be?
Never in my life, this just wasn't me.
Then one day as I lay and cry.
I got up, said enough`s , enough and dried my eye.
This is it !
He is out !
I`m not taking anymore.
When he gets home, it would be a day like never before.
His stuff was packed and sitting right next to the door.
He got home and seen his stuff, got ready to go nuts.
Take your stuff, and get on out.
You`ll never touch me again.
He looked up and knew ..........I mean`t what I just said.
Smith & Wesson 9mm, my new and very best friend.

With every word comes that of kindness and love.
With everyday I dream of nothing but me loving you for life.
It is with a gentle touch that I kiss your soft lips.
But with that of a fire of passion to which I Love You from down deep.
It is there in my soul I hunger for your love.
With every beat of my heart that I fall deeper in love.
It is time that heals all wounds but time that hurts a soul lingering in blues.
It is there you are, as my darkness falls upon my soul in pain.
In that of great feelings I have for you.
As I long for the day to be here and you in my arms.
It is a love of such a lady I dream of all my life.
As you have made that dream to be real the day you came into my life.
It is the understanding you have of my situation but most of all,
it is with patients that you wait for me love.
It is everything I strive on as I want to be close to you.
It's everything I live for as I feel your love from far.
But most important, it is my love I hold dear and close to my heart.
That of your words that cuts me deeply in my being.
It is only there I bleed for you.
As I cry tears of both pain and joy you have brought to me.
But it is with great honor I love you forever more.
As we become closer then ever before.
As each day, you bring more of meaning to my life.
As you heal the inner most hurt of my soul.
But it is there I Love You more as each day passes and you still here loving me.
Even though we have never met, I feel like I've known you all my life.
And I wait patiently the day I can hold you and whisper softly
the words of love in your ear.
As I Love you with all of my being.
It is there I fight for you.
From deep inside my soul as I work harder trying to get there where you are.
I can only pray that it be soon as every day I miss loving you.
A day that should bring
happy things,
but memories of you
was all it did bring
A dozen years past,
since you went away,
and every step taken
from then till today
I walked in your footprints
light and deft,
always minding,
not to smudge your step
Passing mistakes
piled in heaps,
and your there saying
“Honey learn as you weep”
Words of wisdom,
now I know,
you only wanted
me to grow
The tears that I cry
contain a nucleus of you,
and surrounding the rest
pure indigo blue
A day wont go past
that I wont miss you,
but sweet are the thoughts
when I dream in the dew
Inveigled in these thoughts
my beacon of one,
my beginning of end
that time begun
I found out on the step above,
The death of him, my only love.
My body froze on current path,
A wedding we were short to have.
At such a loss, my mind did leave,
And now I find, I cannot grieve.
For all is gone and left my hands,
Like fingers grasping tiny sand.
No purchase on this lonely step,
High and dry, yet soaking wet.
Rain will spill, in glossy form,
Yet stay I will until the dawn.
A puddle sits round sodden feet,
Warmth and care is all I seek.
Clouds did morph to tiny stars,
Yet rain it does throughout the dark.
Bitter frost starts creeping in,
The wind alone she cannot win,
For stand I do, on stony perch,
Despite the Gail of hidden mirth.
The day I woke from haunted sleep,
My step had sunken 10 foot deep.
Time had passed and left me weak,
Wrinkles now are all I keep.
I found myself amid the earth,
Egger now to keep me there.
Weathered face with silver hair,
Few more years then nearly there…
The day I passed I finally wept,
And found my love upon my step.
There he’d been forever more,
Tears he cried whatever for!?
