he kicked the chair leg in despair.
He knows it is the fault of age…
but it’s easier to blame the chair....

I didn't know you
But I longed to
I never held you
But I yearned to
I never kissed you
But I ached to
I never told you
That I loved you!...

What should I say
When she called
Me over today
Said it was urgent
To my lament
I ached for her touch
But then she said
That I’m too much...

I fell
It ached

I cried
Under the sheets 

I laughed
With people around

I smiled
Joy never truly found

Still, I trusted
But, again,
I fell......

There once was a dame of no pedigree
Who just ached to be a celebrity
   She made it her goal
   To get rid of her soul
And did so, poor thing, unrepentantly

I awakened to

The sound of the wind

Moaning your name.

My heart ached still,

Filled with the sorrow

Of your demise.

Together the wind and I 

Sang a song of longing...

I cried like it was yesterday.

Words ached again, beats beget
Clang, clank, clash, clink, click
Dance dawns, great night dance
Domed Dwarf great house, Eagle
Flies eerie, flies, falls, rises

It hurts inside 
when you decide
I've lied.
Everything goes wrong
I've ached to long
I'm strong.
but I'll tell you dear
I need you here
Right near.
All this pain inside
All this pain outside
Too much pain inside
All my pain I hide...

I decided I'm meant to be forever alone
Until I met you and gave love a go
It was exciting at first to have texts on my phone
Until I got stressed and ached to go home
I walked out your door to be on my own
Accepting my fate as forever alone...

Wearing a robe irk and igniting

He told me his love for another grows.
His words stung like a thousand nettles
Another woman to love, he chose.

A rain of salty teardrops fell upon a rose
and withered its delicate coral petals.
My wounded heart ached in painful throes....

I met daughter of the skies
Instantly my heart ached
Mechanical problems emerged
The speed governor stopped 
Brake pads broke loose
Steering wheel off its roots
I prayed that I crash hard
Hard into her interior walls
Believing I would die in peace...

Was to hid her emotions from everyone who truly cared
And that is why she's scared
Of everyone's opinion 
Congratulations society you made her a minion...

Tresses can caress,
Hers did,
While I lifted her lids,
Her wide eyes lit,
Like happy torches,
Her body pores ached,
For a little more,
She was energy,
And could go on,
For as long as one wished,
She was now here,
And now there,
She was the best I ever had,
Of well bred mares....

Mandrillus ate a lizard

                                       And got lost in the blizzard

                                                His belly ached

                                             His tail was baked

                                           In the oven of wizard...

winged friend,
clipped and chained,
shivered and ached,
when it rained,
with rust and blood,
smeared on white,
wicked thoughts,
start the fight,
when they can't sleep,
they run away,
feeling safe,
in light of day,
but they don't know,
that i can see,
which emotions,
will set them free....

My eyes are sore from weeping,
Heart, not up for drinking,
Hands, cold from writing,
Mind, ached from worrying
Smile, vanished from faking...

These thoughts are dumb,
The colds’ made me numb,
What I thought was within my thumb,
What I thought I’d become...
While waiting for sleep to come

Silence flows
through WWE,
Due to the loss 
of a dear Eddie.

He may be gone
from this place,
but many will remember
his wrestling grace. 

my heart ached 
my eyes did cry,
as I watched the roster
say their good-byes.

Eddie Guerrero has
passed away,
but his memory 
is always here to stay....

And so I saw the moon tonight

And so I confessed to the moon tonight

I spoke to the moon tonight

I sent it to the moon tonight

And so I cried under the moon tonight

I ached under the moon tonight

I asked under the moon tonight

Because I thought about you tonight 

Almost every night......

Cool waters
Rush over me
Take me under
And wash me away

Ripple waters
Flow through me
Touch me where
My heart has ached

Crystal waters
Pour over me
See what my
Eyes vision to see

Vast waters
Spread over me
Carry me as far
As you can take me

Cool waters
Rush over me
Take me to a place
Where I feel no more pain...

My sixty-seventh March 13

Hoarse, the lion roar is fading;
the lamb sneaks up again.

Hot, another birthright tallied;
the candles are so dense.

Black, the coated wicks will smolder;
they huddle upon cake.

come to me, whom I’ve remembered;
come to me for whom I’ve ached.
