Not Like YouSome say you are the best one,
sure have you a try,
you got curves that imprison
every straight man’s eye.
I thought we’d find our own path,
to see each other’s worth,
but we were just so different
that it all felt like work.
Both sides of every issue,
soon peace and quiet died,
sought solace in the bedroom,
the sex a pleasant lie.
Suppose we...

It Sounded Like You Were Trying To Evict The Words From Their Home On Your TongueI have been watering it for months—
the small black bulb in the cupboard
that I never let touch sunlight.
It swelled in the dark,
fed on steam from my cooking breath,
fat with the whispers I never spoke aloud.
I told myself it was only a seed,
a pebble in soil, nothing more.
I would open the door,
look at it once, and...

Got No FeelingOh, since that day, I’ve been done with your games,
I’ve been done with your games, so tired,
left me in pain, and in courtrooms insane,
took half of my gains, you liar,
Now you just want to come back,
think it’ll all be a snap,
life’s just a lark, you were playing the part,
but woman I see through the trap.
I’m...

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...

Thank you Lord new song versionThank you Lord
Thinking back upon my life
When days were ever so bleak
When nothing seemed to turn out right
I was desperate and so weak
Then you came along and helped me out
You pulled me out of the fire
And I thank you…Oh Lord
For saving my life
Chorus
I want to thank you Lord,
For always being there
Through the bad times...

waiting to see you againi sit alone and wait to see you again,
eyes weary from my vigil.
neighbors' rustling reminds me
of the world passing by,
but nothing distracts me
from the prison of thought.
in my mind i am lonely,
in the crowd even lonelier.
but the color i see
in this stale black & white
is that of your eyes
miles away from me,
the blue sky under...

Won't Take ThatShe gave her word and I just believed,
was the best thing that happened to me,
but, before long, on camera I see
her sneaking with a man who lives up the street.
Probed her for truth, but, oh, she just lie,
never had a hint of guilt in her eyes,
how can someone feel that justified,
even showed her the tape,...

Numb as we can beNumb.... Lonely
Staring at the same gloomy rain
dripping down 2 different
window panes
over 300 miles away
Feeling alone & ashamed,
full of regret because of how
we hehaved
but not giving up
bc this Actual, Magical,
One of a kind love
is just too unfathomable
to not crave
its right there out of our reach,
our plans, wants & goals
so easy to speak
but...

Older Men Are BeautifulBeauty is in the Eye of the Beholder Poetry Contest
Crystol Woods
Her man friend, grey, over the hill, and older
He's cheesy, conning, plain, and a freeloader
She's in her twenties and smart
Her friends ask why this old fart
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Her friends are so puzzled and think something smells
They even ask what happened...

Room For RentFor rent:
a room with three
rowdy, reckless roommates
who revel in raving it up.
Curtains they've ripped and carpets they've ruined
Worn sofa and rancid kitchen
all greatly reduced with
a garage too
for rent.

THE FINEST GIRL IN MY STREETThere's this fine girl
In my street
She said I'm very sweet
She licks me like ice cream
When the play starts
She gives me high screams.
Her body shape
Just like the coca cola bottle
She said she likes my muscles
She likes the way I grab her
She got the best styles and wine
When we...

The ReturningThe Return
The quietness spreads thickly,
the atmosphere even thicker.
Nature has lost its voice
as the house glowers down at him
caped in silent stillness;
a muscle waiting to twitch!
He side-steps the house’s deafening glare,
slipping into the secluded garden
where nostalgia waits to ambush him
with memories unrolled everywhere;
hanging in the trees, draped across flower beds
lounging on the wooden bench.
