My Life Flickers

I am nothing and everything
To myself or someone else
Isn’t that concept something?

Moment to moment perspective shifts
Arriving blunt with charm and harshness
Challenging each step of the way

Anxiously hiding then fiercely defending
Mind numb then mind bending

Nobody sees me then all at once
Everyone sees me

How will I ever reconcile this?
I slip into nothing
Then I’m suddenly summoned for dependability

When My Life Changed

There’s a little log cabin, nestled by a big, fur tree.
It’s the place that my daddy built, before there was me.

It’s the warm cosy place, the place where I was born,
He made a little wooden cradle with carving to adorn.

The colorful wooden blocks daddy made when I was one.
He would pile then up for me

When My Life Changed

In a dreary mood, bent and broken,
With an ailment that crippled my life
I lay bedridden for many a month
With every muscle weakened by arthritis 
And every nerve radiating the pain

Dull were the days and sore were the nights,
Time slouched on in mechanical beats,
Mind devoid of any buoyant thoughts,
Senses shut to every cheery throb of life,
I

When My Life Changed

In the diaphanous domain 
of the sapphire serene night,
the drizzle of moon’s silver sequins,
defining the existential epithet 
of the dulcet melodic cadence, 
adorned the pearl-laced waves 
of the rolling sensuous sea, 
spread seamlessly before me, 
beyond the baroque shore, 
where I sauntered only with me
in the corridor of the musical mind, 
followed the tune of

When My Life Changed

Remembering what she used to be. 
How she could light the world ablaze without a second thought. 
Her words like daggers, always ready for a fight. 
Always wanting and waiting for the thrill of the adrenaline. 
Her feels numb, not even feeling the hurt of being used anymore. 
Was it the constant state of depression,

A CRACK IN THE SIDEWALK
Poem written for and submitted to “When My Life Changed” Poetry Contest, Kai Micheal Neumann, sponsor.

Early morning, sun dripping gold over weathered fences.
     I was running, feet rhythmically striking the pavement.

Then a sudden jolt, my foot caught in a yawning crack.

My life changed when suddenly Mom grew old,
the years had passed I was aware, too soon
the sunny afternoon became the dark
shadow of impending coil's mortal cold
journey underworld to the banks of gloom~

All my life, my heart has yearned for a nameless dream

All my life, my heart has yearned for a nameless dream,
A longing as deep as the ocean under a starry, boundless sky,
For in every heartbeat, I feel the echo of an unfinished song,
An ancient call, like a wind whispering the secrets of the sea.
Day by day, my steps have followed paths unseen by others,
Searching among

If My Life, Where to Fly?

If my life were to fly?

Then can find a lover, the soul just flies, two is one, be us
No partner, no mate, no open gate from my life, just a life
The rusty key is lost. Can’t open. No lock. You. Loved off

My life was to fly, to your crown, my age. Dry wreath dry
I loved

My Life story

Whom are you following and pleasing, and bowing
Jesus, Jesus, we call, proclaim as spiritual beings 
Read the Bible that shows our actual level of living 
Rented in a worldly habitation, owns nothing 
Pride within destroys the inner spirit prevailing
Self-righteous judgment is a scheme of the devil confronting
 
God of peace compels us to seek peace
Love

My life stories

Do not get carried away with a man testifying about you

The fleeting and lying world will dump you soon and leave you cold

Hard to explain your loyalty when your eyes are closed

Folly game they play, holding to unconfessed sins to do

Well, a judgment day will end them anyway 

One thing is for sure, evil has

I can't pay my life

I can’t pay my life

No attention. How to pay attention?
A self-driven person. A narcissistic

What can I do? Can’t take care of
On my life. He is closed. A desire

I don’t know him. Maybe an alien
Stranger. My life. Different person

Driving me. I can’t control. The Will
My will. My wished life. My desire

I don’t pay with my life.

Sara Teasdale, Why I Took My Life

The night pressed in with a velvet hand,
I was so tired, you’d understand.
All day the world had sung its song,
But not for me—I did not belong.

The streets were lit, the windows warm,
Yet none could shield me from the storm.
I wore my smile like Sharon's borrowed dress,
While hollow winds moved through my chest.

I thought of spring,
