Long Weigh down Poems

This day is Bright ! 
Thoughts take Flight .

Music – the companion of my soul !
Books – the confidants to my mind !
Daughters – the reasons for life to know
more than experience has allowed me...

from the oldest part of the city of Bern,

He lighted the candle with a quivering hand,
his overcoat...

Cast away the sorrow from my soul
Make the ugliness seem so beautiful
Craft me with your eager elegance
Resurrect me with your pure radiance

My veins are flooded with the blood of my enemies
Please don't catch me off...

Where is my mother?
Arms legs and love were accounted for
But she was gone....
Broken by Circumstance
Suppressed by finance
3 ton bolder strapped to her ankle, but still she advanced
My mother..
Too good to be true,
But too bad to...

I never possessed time.
Time that I would call my own.
You see, amidst a broken heart.
I had heard a friend cry.
She said her own heart had been broken.
So I listened, counselled and wiped away her tears.
There...

I'm feeling overwhelmed to say the least 
Why do I feast upon my fears before the Feast?
I'm feeling out of place, yet free in space
I'm feeling lazy and insecure; far from grace

I haven't forgotten the...

Shamefully dull, life would be,
Without seasons to nourish me.
Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall,
Nature’s blessings the nourish us all

Apathetic and harsh, winter is,
With arctic gales that pierce 
Every linen shielding my frame.
Anomalous flakes of snow drift...

Heal the sorrow, uproot the sad willow 
Make it happy
There's another tomorrow to borrow
To set you free 

Burn away the icy ickiness inside me
Churn away the sea of distress that I see
Brew away the sensation...

The journey began from birth
 Since presented out into this life,
 The brow beating experience,
 Gloom besetting this vagabond soul
 Are harrowing like the trail in front,
 The ancestors had proclaim the future
 To be...

Will float like dreams upon the breeze;
Will drift and never speak a word,
Dancing amongst the grass and trees.
 
I see you as if through the mist;
Still as you climb into my...

I'm spending the time reminiscing, and wow. 
Everything in my life has lead to this EXACT MOMENT. 
I'm cooking pasta at 2 AM with a smile on my face and music in my ears
Warm pajamas...

Dedicate to Lorie Jean Though She'll Never Know


Asleep, I cannot escape my love’s depth for you.
Awake, I cannot deny my loathing towards you.
Confusion and missing settle-stay in my pain’s cliché.
Thoughts of you weigh down my...

i still think
about coming back
being with you
doing the same things
we used to do
it would be so easy
to sink back into old ways
to think of you
the way i used to
to look at you
the same way
i once...

We have history

When I'm lying in my bed alone
And I picture you in my mind
I'm reminded of our history
Why I...

I cry my tears
But they are mistaken

For rain

I write my words
But they are mistaken

For outlets

They may be outlets
But you are mistaken

Here's why:

I do not write
To vent to space

The emptiness of the world
As I hear nothing...

DRESSING DEATH

Snapshot of a corpse ~ head unnaturally leans into the glass

death is not kind, though dressed up, with makeup, scented flowers

a woman decorated in autumn foliage holding rosary beads ~
more like a doll than...

This prose, a shipwreck...
Barnacled and long forgot
at the bottom of a lonely sea.

This song, a rusted railcar...

Cold hands of the doctor in gloves and mask
lay her on the hard surgical metal table.
A numb sensation travels down arm to wrist.
Sedation spreads to an EGREGIOUS sin. 
Breathing deep through monitored heart rate
eyelids weigh...

Beneath the knots of time hidden in fallen planks,
Feet dangle, shattered by the shadow of oblivion.
Through an eyebrow of sun clothed in pollen and decline,
A hand strikes a bargain to see how light spins a...

The sun beams down lighting up my face and warming my skin
Coaxing my eyes shut to leave the physical world 
Letting the natural world fill my veins
The wild wind refreshes my lungs
Replenishing my whole inner...

Those who surrender to God’s guidance
Will never find themselves in a position
For which the good Lord above 
Has not made provision
In perplexity, we have a sure Counselor
For bereavement, loneliness or sorrow
We have a sympathetic Friend

Love used to feel so proud
It shined and gleamed with its own glory
Love felt its strength
Love trusted this strength

But then love was shot by bolts of lightning
Love could not understand what was happening
Love went on...
