There lies a place of shadows hidden far away from sight

The Sad Nocturnal Song of FrogsThe night is young
And enticing
Still, a lump weighs heavily on my heart
As I sit by the window
And reflect on the cause of life!
Pray, it would seem that, somehow
People get so engrossed in life
That they forget...

Write SomethingI have been challenged
To everyday
Just WRITE SOMETHING
You’d think that’d be a simple task
Since I call myself a writer
Just WRITE SOMETHING

When all I’m trying to do...

PateinceCarnelian robes permeate dreamtime landscapes
of parchment and prayer flag.
Smiling faces walk swiftly
through corridors of ancient walls
carved from living mountains,
spinning cylindrical wheels in their wake.
Patience of a thousand, thousand years,
we wait for peace.
Eagle feathers jounce
as soft...

This Is MineThis is mine
I’m just spinning my wheels, going nowhere fast;
I could try to care, but empathy I lack.
This place has ruined the person I used to be;
There lie the remains of me.
I have no strength...

By Kevin Robey
October 1, 2013
(Verse 1)
This is the path that I choose
Holed out shoes and tattooed rooms
Decaying teeth out of favors to use
Jagged runes are buried in tombs
Falling tears turning into dust
Blades seem...

The Soul KnowsWhere did all the sunny days go?
I feel my Soul tell me it knows
Howbeit I’m constantly chasing shadows
Through bravado and deepening sorrows
Endlessly I hear life's soprano
Though it sounds empty and disturbingly hollow.
My Soul...

Ballad
Or Is It the Tulips`
Driving by,
lost on a side street
directly in the middle
of where I never wanted to be
Clamoring at the expectations
strewn along the curb
between the broken dishwasher
and empty beer cans
Where neighborhood gnomes
painted gaily colors
wave as if they...

When Is My Time to Shine?I'm waiting, and waiting but my time just won't come,
I'm working hard, but it's not enough,
I feel like I'm stuck in a rut,
I keep trying, and trying but nothing seems to work.
I feel so lost...

'grand'MotherSlow and subtle, mellow and munificent.
Stripes of selflessness run through her veins.
But there’s something about her that
I can’t describe.
It’s love, deep love- spinning its wheels,
It never ends. Sacrifice, kiss goodbye
and cut loose, for love....

White Picket FenceBy Laura
March 27, 2016
This is my sunset home
Forever here I roam
I can't escape these memories
The waves that throw me in the sea
To rise above the flashback tide
To know there's nowhere left to hide
We only eat...

24 December Retail InsanityWith maxed credit limits, we’re still roving for goods
spinning our wheels over ought-to’s and shoulds
We’ll shop till we’re dropped,
might see a guy popped,
in the nose over faded blue jeans.
If it’s the very last pair

Stress becomes your new...
