On the Edge
On The Edge
He lays flat on the floor
on the edge of his mind's cliff.
Taking notes, he wonders
“Is this life worth living?”
He tries to remember,
tries to grasp onto happier times.
Flickers of light flutter beyond his reach.
They...

Tearing Down Walls That Bind (Free Verse)

All who have truly lived…
Have, stood behind many walls;
Some had unforeseen bobbed-wired fences
Placed there, by unusual circumstances…

To react in the unnatural...

Sea of Amoress
Love has us immeresed,
in an endless fathom.
Like tears that fall to the sea.
A symbol of loves' fleeting-
Phantom-
bemused unto the deep.
Our understanding,

carrying us to some far shore-
Between summit and sands,
of the Isle...

cognised in staid stillness slow” ~ Unseeking Seeker

mountain streams,
soaked in...

Withdrawn For Good From Rat Race

Kismet
Holding hands with Shannon Leigh
Enthrallment consuming me

Pitch blank possibility

Bemused I should feel this way

Nature's splendid verve soiree
As we bask...

Blows off the smallest bow leaving me a husk
Depression cat calls behind the veil
Dark days alone with my ever-present God
Hopelessly kneeling to my sad nature
