Even When You're Near
"Even When You're Near" I saw you yesterday. You’re not far. Maybe five minutes, a handful of quiet streets. But I miss you. Not because you’re gone, you’re not. It’s just that the world feels softer when you’re in it, next to me, not just in thought. The couch feels bigger....

Premium Member Looking into the mirror, again and again, my reflection slowly draws near
Looking into the mirror, again and again, my reflection slowly draws near, with a breath, it twists my hands—and I know what it wants from me, it has always envied what I love, despised what I adore with passion, tonight it returns, her fingers lightly touch my lips, tracing their outline like a lover, until she delves deep, the blood...

Gazing into the sky so far, where five points twinkle from a star, there's more than a spark. The feeling lingers, as I sit close to where you are, and hold hands with all five fingers....

The end is near
The sun retreats in anguish As winter takes control, I stare out the window blankly As I let my thoughts unroll I think of the isolation Of the sadness I solely consume, Betrayed by so called “friends” And left to my own assume I’m tired now and I have to go But it’s not in my nature to give up, Maybe that’s the...

Near Solitude
neon lights at night danced behind closed eyes vague memories embraced cats lie at the foot of my bed a heater vent breathes the world I know turns it’s February the sun wears a veil of clouds I take a deep breath a feeling that love lies between death and me as I cry out for spring a leap of faith always a poem to write a story to...

A Lonely-Child Stranger Dancing Near The River

We keep praying For redemption From our redeemer Not deception From our leaders Many deceit Without receiving. We keep praying For grace As we run our race Not disgrace As we lace our shoes Ready to face whatever...

My Near Death Experience
Having once died, I found the air like there moist and still. Humming along soft with unseen green wings of light, The echoes of a song long written unfulfilled, That wove through veils of gold and endless night. Each step a path, each path a stair case unseen, Where shadows melt and shimmer into cold flame, A silent guide, a voice...
