Through It All (My Secret Sin)

Through the sand, 
Through the fog, I got your hand
Through the sand 
And through the fog, I have your hand
I claim to be a man 
Yet in reality, I pray you grasp my hand
Hit a bump and stumble 
Rely on triumph to stand humble
Days before nights
Nights after days, I firmly crumble
Through the blood, we wade through mud
Paddle through love
And shiver up after warm hugs
Most poets write about fallen leaves
And disassembled trees
At times friendships resemble fees 
A lot of us write, but I’m like, okay
Pass the tragedies, what more can I say
From the caskets to the empty baskets
Why, How come
Why so many ask it 
Winter is shrugs, Summer is hugs 
And I guess Autumn is lonely doves 
Scream and shout 
However, you are forgiven for the profanity
 That leaks toward your mouth 
This person you see
Until the end is who I’mma be 
Palm to palm
Be there for me until the storm is calmed
Deliver my pain and as it reigns 
Grip my hand
Through the sand, through the fog
I got your hand


Premium Member Gentlest of Fresh Leaves

This is my one love and when it will die
I might as well drift by the alley’s wayside
Or care for young leaves which are my pride,
That only bluebirds from frosty air cry .

Soon, I’ll hear old winter’s song through dusk’s lyre
Climbing on stars, my breaths moaning aloud;
To watch day’s procession through a head bowed
When twilight dims a moon, frail like kohl’s pyre

Yet in this secular autumn I know
I have felt his pure warmth open life's heart;
This  kindled fervor, only to depart…
Yet evenings bloom on a sepulcher, aglow

Mellow like fresh leaves when times past enthrall,
Gentlest of all, my love, gentlest of all.

Premium Member Autumn Leaves

By chance, I found them there, …they were lost by time, just like the leaves
that fell away from autumn trees, and drifted past the window
Now, here today they've come to stay, as if to say that love can last

They were pressed between twin pages, waiting to be found
Tucked inside, with brittle veins,  in your tattered book of poems
The cover's worn, a broken spine, that had your names, an autumn date
I brushed the dust, and felt the rush that comes from winter's song

Caressed in yellowed tissue, frayed, three leaves from ancient trees
Had fallen down from russet crowns, one autumn long ago
Where leaves had twirled so bold and gay, discarded to the ground
You picked them up with gentle care, and pressed them, sonnet bound

A place you walked and held his hand, and knew how love could be
Perhaps beneath those golden trees you made your plans for me
When winter's chill and stolen years had not yet come to be 
Fresh fragrance of the fall was new,  when love was yours to find
From carpets, soft of red and brown, you chose three leaves, now mine
A legacy you've left for me, a treasure left behind

You chose three leaves from all the hordes that lie upon the ground
A tree had finished using them, in remembrance of you 
Yours for awhile, they made you smile, and now they've come to me

Here in my hands,  they've come to stay, to keep for all my days
And as days pass, until at last my autumn leaves must fall....
