It was in the early days of our lives
We met
She was so beautiful 
My eyes could not stop admiring
My heart kept racing 
Every time it sensed
her good-looking approaching
But we were too young 
To give full...

Hmmm, where do I start? With deep sighs, I am sighing right now.
I just finished burying 2 lizards, and my heart is heavy...

Let me back up a bit...bear with me if I might turn out...

Wouldn't it seem to persist an unspoken personal longing for perfection?
Is insinuated toward poetic supremacy; obviously . . .
I would feel confident in generalizing the presence within us all—to achieve god-like greatness.
I must say, that...

I was pretty talkative, and spent all of my days chit chattering,
Like galaxies of glinting stars, all the dark universe scattering.

I was always on the move, and loved cacophonic sights and sounds,
Like the deep thrill...

Things can be intimidating within this future of life as we know 
like a luring spiritual souls path intricately lingering
departing its everlasting glow 
Nullifying life’s hardships 
Prospering life’s greatness 
Alluring as my mindset is trying...

I was a public relations specialist, ever promoting positivity to people,
As positivity is promoted afar, by the sight of the towering cathedral.

My work was very interesting, there weren't ever two days the same,
As an exotic...

This room is odd…
Do I remember it? 
This house is big but surely…

I have been in this room before
The paintings are odd in subject matter,
Execution, they show things that can’t be. 
Or should not be…

They...

When we arrived at the U.S. border as a family
We were far from welcomed in, we were made an example of
Ripped apart by ICE-cold border patrol officers. Our cries
Fell on deaf ears. I have no...

Emerging from a doorway shadow 
   Through thick air - sweet with incense - 
Comes a dark figure dressed in a robe 
   To be near the altar in silence.

"The Long Night"

Nighttime. I dreaded it. Darkness. Uncertainty, and the feeling of being powerless. I lay down to try to rest. 
This was my life now. Devoid of hope. 

Abuse, and poverty. No power, only...

Blessed Mother's Day
God Blessing came in many ways
I was Blessed
Giving Out of Love His Best

In the morning
My son.. went out of his way
made me breakfest in bed today
Which woke me up
With God's Loving cup

Then My...

Paying The Bill
 
You may come to this some day
It may issue from nowhere
A moment un-strident
A loose flagging half remembrance
Something which neither carries
Nor contains
But a fickle shadow 
Thin and as meaningless with an empty whimper
Not...

Growing up with ADHD forces you to adapt,
impulsive behaviour controls how you react,
attention span wanders and naturally distracts,
you face an impact, that in fact, doesn't change how you act.

Turns your face red but still you...

I've been thinking of a whole lot
None of the same old thoughts 
Never has it been about any jewelery or a gold watch
And the same could be said for having my soul lost


I'm not going...

I’m seeking God’s will
For everything, each idea, every dream
I’m pursuing the Prince of peace,
The King of kings, the Wonder of wonders
Who created me and gave to me
The sweetest grace, the beauty of faith
Forgiveness and mercy,...

Believe 

She sat down at the kitchen table to read his letter. Her smile faded as she read his words.
She had almost fooled herself this time. How could she believe he would actually change?
How could...

As I strolled through the street one day,
The oddest sight caught my eyes,
A man, only wearing rags,
But very wise,
Spoke words of knowledge, inspiration and advice,
How to care, how to share,
And just how to be nice,
To...

Tonight
That damn moonlight so mysteriously and enchantingly bright
As it dances in and out
All about
And peeks in between and around
The night skies dark clouds
With it’s mesmerizing embrace
Taking me right back to that place
Where all I can...

The heart is a hollow vessel,
aching with the weight of love lost.
In the depths of solitude,
I find myself drowning in memories,
gasping for a breath of your presence.

The bed we once shared
now a cold, desolate wasteland.

On the fifteenth of may
Was the day that they met
It was truly a day
They'd both never forget
They were made for eachother
They'd never fall apart
They loved eachother to much
To break the others heart
A whole year went...

Standing alone in a dark room eyes closed for just a few moments I feel your touch, feel your breath on my neck...
Then the sparks start to fly and catches everything ablaze.
As it all starts...
