Can you hear my breaking heartFor those who feel invisible. One of the key things that leads to relationship breakdowns is when people feel invisible. In a world where people are increasingly glued to some form of device, this disconnect is rising.
Try to remember to connect with each other every day. Don't take each other for granted. Show you...

Valium and DumdumsBetween spacetime ripples
lurk dark energy waves,
emanating from the void
strange forces hold me slave
I mean! What type of creature/
flies a kite in thunderstorms
One searching for answers
carrying Cain’s multiple forms?
Left to roam earth’s surface,
blind man at the controls,
Free will: a human delusion,
designed for plugging holes
Filling up wishing wells
that possess no walls or gold,
If angels once flew here,
torn...

The Umbrella StoryHe’s someone she once knew. He’s the reason she loves the rain and why she finds herself always waiting for the next storm. The bigger the storm, the more she remembers, sitting on the back porch at Angel Ave, wrapped in his arms. He always made her feel safe during the loud cracks of thunder.
The...

a decent lawyer, I made
Met a girl, saved some dough
She was my bride, I her beaux
Three little...

A Time Of Being And Knowinga hush swept through the room
like a draft sliding under an old door
slowly it made its presence known
until our awareness was undeniable
our minds were frozen in a different state and time
a time of being and knowing

BECAUSE OF YOU-Because OF YOU
Because of you my life worth living;
Because of you I’m more into giving;
Woo ooh a ooh ooh a oh
Oh! What a love so beautiful
Because your hue ever so radiant;
Because your eyes see everything;
Because your voice echoes heaven;
I’m into view, because of you
Ever so wonderful, all so beautiful
All so beautiful, you’re bountiful
Glorious comforting
You’re ever...

Every moment counts
along life's journey
simple joys are the gems
to be stockpiled and amassed
opportunities are simply
bits of freedom to blossom
into time well savoured...

UnleashedI seldom make promises --
man of my word, promises
leave no wiggle room…
and, most of us, at least
occasionally, like a good
wiggle
test our physical and
mental ranges for gyration --
In fact, on deeper analysis,
nothing really is ever stationary --
not time nor space
the closest thing to Perpetual-still
being the human heart, refusing
to give up on love, despite...

LoveLooking for love may not succeed
Learning to love may help indeed
Letting love flow, may be the seed
Lift another by doing a loving deed
Love others first, take the lead
Lady or gent, please do not plead
Lasting love is drawn to a need

The gap between love and true love
When love is good,
it's really great.
Unfortunately for most
when the sparkle fades,
they don't know how to fix it.
Seems easier for many
to clear the slate and
go for instant gratification
of finding someone new.
They're addicted to
easy pickings and
the high of novelty.
The other side of that coin
is they are cursed to never
experience the depth
of true and lasting love.

What Does it Mean?I wrote a poem, but don't know what it means.
Its mystery is what the reader gleans.
Now, its meaning is infused,
unless the reader is confused,
and the poem is blown to smithereens....

When too much is enough
i lead a simple life
without expectations
without demands
i reach out with everything i’ve got
being satisfied with what comes my way
but when it comes to love
i think that too much is
what's needed
too much is exactly
what’s enough
life’s too short and
time too valuable
to be squandered
passion is not
merely a word for poets
it’s meant to be explored
when it...
