Premium MemberWhen Tomorrow Comes

When tomorrow comes,
let not fear be your friend.
Take every step forward
where the road never ends.

Leave all of yesterday's pain
at a place beyond the dust.
Put your faith in God,
because He knows you suffered enough.

Even when you think you're hurt
and can't go on,
reach deep within your heart
for the strength to be strong.

Because your family will be the light
that will help carry you through,
somewhere deep in your heart,
you know our love is true.

Remember, we'll stand behind you
and always have your back.
Even when your faith is damaged,
we will guide you back on track.

So continue to keep your head up;
don't let the weight hold you down.
In the end, you're going to be okay,
because the strength you thought was lost
has now just been found.


Premium MemberThe Other Side of Make Believe

There is torment who tells you nothing except that you are worthy of the devil's persecution,
Elocution might disarm it, but in the beginning it haunts you until you turn to some comfort,
Some illicit comfort that convinces you the pain was a dream and not a nightmare,
In the recesses of stillness and the rest that eludes us, there is a torment that knows us by name,
And hat4es us just the same,
But in the end,
A man who is the first and the last,
Knows a way out,
Find him, grab his garment and let go for absolutely nothing,
Least of all that itch that begs you to scratch it,
And start the game anew,
God love you,
Hold onto Jesus,
And be free.

Premium MemberDust on the Ground

Dust on the Ground Written, August 11, 2026, For Poetry Challenge: One-Syllable Words Rules: All words should be one syllable. August 10- August 16, 2026 ************* The cold night sweeps in, the stars hide; the sky dulls— wind hurts deep, and dust coats the ground. Pain is a wide cut, weighs the heart— with more beat, tears fall slow, while eyes weep. Hope sparks bright, warm lights rise— hands stay tight, dreams lift, then drift, and fade from sight. Light breaks dawn, arms reach out— peace moves soft, home leans near love finds its way— and stays true.

Premium MemberPainkiller

She's all dolled up, looking cool and hot, that's better than she's used to 

Out on the town looking around for a guy that's better than she's used to 

Looking cute in her go-getter suit, wish she were mine loving like we used to...

I see her face in the middle of the night 
I lay awake and wonder why
A love so strong could ever die 
And I cry...

Repeat three verses
Repeat chorus

Premium MemberRain Waits For Me

it rained
and I stayed
not to pause in remembrance
but to wash away
what grief couldn’t

it didn’t matter
that my heart was breaking
what else could it do?


you lie beneath ten feet of dirt
after the slow battle
cancer claimed
and I disappear a little more
each day

healing is a dream
it lives in the stars
or in a glass jar on the mantle

healing
that’s for time to deal with
if I can’t hold your hand one last time
or tell you everything I forgot to say
then time is pointless

right now
rain drowns my sorrow
it stings my skin
and gets in my eyes
no need for tears

but tomorrow
shall start the pain
all over again
and this rain
will be waiting for me

Premium MemberLove was yesterday.

I listened to love for years, still feeling the pain.
Pulling back the cover, crying out in vain.
Silenced, I feel the pressure on my heart.
The truth belongs to yesterday, I didn’t feel it start.

Premium MemberWHY

You don't know how I feel; you don't know what I've seen.  
All I know is I have a dream,  
A dream I lost you and can't bring you back.  
To your heart is where my love is at.  
So I ask myself every night and day,  
Does she love me? I don't know what to say.  
All I know is I'm hurting inside,  
Trying to win this thing called pride.  
Fighting off every aspect to make myself look shameful.  
Please come take away this hurt; take it away, it's too painful.  
So pray for me and keep my thoughts near.  
This is the end, so lend me an ear!

Premium MemberA Monster Called Life

Fair lady, look down, see me in this hole, 
beaten by a creature to be dreaded,   
this ill-made, unsightly, disfigured, troll,
conquered by a monster many-headed. 

The moment mother screamed and I was born, 
the beast's heads stared upon me filled with hate.
I pared an ugly one that was called scorn,
and left home when I could to meet my fate. 

Looming precariously from above, 
the brute left me here in my final hour,
delivering dire blows - first pain, then love.
Dear lady, please place a futile flower

as I bid farewell to the woe and strife,
and the monster, now dead, but once called life.

Premium MemberLanguage of Love

I have forgotten the Language of love,
I have sought for guidance from above,
Professed my love now without rewards,
My heart is crossed by swords.

No one helps or bares witness
Not a promise of forgiveness,
Time passes by seasons,
I flirt with my demons.

Premium MemberPain In Our Heart

Pain in my heart

Love doesn’t bother me. Never. I am afraid
My demonic life is sensitive, frozen in heart

No, can’t live this—horrific everything. Lady
Poison. I  want to be healthy. Stay, be a pain

Lady. Woman. My suffering heart. No need
You are a criminal. My walk. Wood. Hoped

I need ice. From your heart. Just a touch
I apologise, just, field, past, hope, our life

Life, I needed. Put me in the dark. Death
Best life. Be a shadow. A dropped. A pain

My dark. Just be. Our existence. The night
Hoped. Hoped. The hands, the hugs. Heart

I can’t stand
Can’t

Can’t
To live

I am sorry
For you

Without
Hmm

Pain in my heart
Still loving you

Premium MemberWhen Love Departs

There is a pain within the soul 
that far exceeds the body's pain. 
An ache no mortal can console 
except by love’s return again. 

When love and all its warmth depart, 
how chill and dark the vacancy, 
how pitiful the trampled heart, 
how empty the unloved can be.

Premium MemberMy Heart Is A Secret Garden

My Heart Is A Secret Garden, where love and pain live and hide. Love finds pretty flowers blooming, as the bright sun peeks over the hill. The love that fills my heart and soul, coming from the many who love me, The pain from the rose thorns that prick my being, from those who want to hurt me. Oh yes, my heart is a a secret garden, exploring life and what it has to give.

Premium MemberThe slain damned sister

The slain damned sister
Look at me while you sleep,
Look deep into my eyes.
Sink into a slumber,
Where you’ll never see the rise.
I’ll wash your face with falling tears,
That drown the sight in yours.
While every ounce of pain you gave,
Settles in our pores.
You’ll slowly fade to nothing,
A ghost of what was well.
Sleep tight, my love, forever
And find your rest in hell.
