A Moment of Truth

this light may bring hope…
a snap of moment to lead to truth…
i am of what i am because of the truth…
somehow Sulu will rise forth…

smiling --
she stirs cold coffee
and waits

a vision of bottles, baths and baby powder in her life

again --
the movement 
within

A Moment of Truth

What about
The walls are thin
The truth within
Held accountable
From finish to the end.

A moment of truth
Chapters abroad
Unknown.

Moment of Truth

While seeking
an explanation for adoration,
confirming logic for love,
or shaping reason for inspiration,
we often stumble on
creative imagination.

Suddenly it was a gamble...
I realized the weight of my decision.
My destiny depended on it.

Moment of Truth

Like an epiphany in a clouded mind
      Lightening splits the sky after dusk
      Revealing hidden things- shrouded 
      mysteries secrets no more.

the hammer falls
setting the pendulum in motion
a moment of truth
after a long silence
held together
by a single bated breath

Time

This day like many
Is beautiful
This hour like many 
Is precious
This moment like many
Is a moment of truth
This second like many
Is a wink of an eye

Psyche

The prescience 
plays a bellwether role
on the path of light.

Come and share
with me the moment of truth:
victory of unknown.

You say truism
will fail one day in
fire and smoke.

Final Due Date

A moment of truth
a century of lies
The left hand deflects 
what the right hand decries   

A little bit pregnant
the ending begins
A monster gestating 
—and living within

seraphs, in eager anticipation,
collectively hold their breath
           for the m o m e n t of truth... 
shy young love, they root for
at last, their virgin k i s s;
            a paroxysm of cheers erupt.

Please Forgive Me

Her own words
Rang In her ears
Nothing would
Ever stop the pain
The words were said
The error made
Regret upon regret
Could never be undone
Moment of truth
Lie upon lie
Laid to rest
With these simple words

PLEASE FORGIVE ME...................

Time's Up

“That’s your apology clock,”
He said to me in a moment of truth and weakness
Under seven shooting stars
Spinning madly in the moonlight.
Opening our eyes and sharing our hearts:
Our map had mistakes.
I’m sorry.
I asked if he thought it was too late.
“It’s never too late.”

Full Circle

Love becomes passion,
Passion becomes drive,
Chemical reactions,
As we draw nigh,
Undiscovered waters,
Memories of youth,
Accepting reality,
A moment of truth.
Surrounded by beauty,
Left aloof,
You must have love,
With memories of pain,
Despite the sun,
Comes the rain.

Human Side Of Creation

Man can be measure
Not from head to feet
But from neck to head.

The moment of truth
Comes not in times of comfort
But in discomfort.

Outward she looks weak
Delicate and fragile outside
Inside treat like hen.

Where's heart is human
Where's love is godly confine
Made His creation.

The Earth Will Keep On Spinning

The Earth Will Keep On Spinning!
When the road you are taking is splitting
And you lose sight of loosing
And winning
One moment of truth is given
To remember looking
Above..
Stars are shining
Worth of giving
Earth beneath is begging
for dying
But beyond is living
The Earth Will Keep On Spinning!

Just a Dream

When yesterday seemed but a dream
A figment of thoughts wished to be seen
A life that which could never be
A moment of truth to never set free
Held in the place of etheral light
To never be witnessed in true sight
Only to live in an old memory
For dreams are not real
No matter how much you wish they could be...

Moment of Truth

One day I looked at you
And it occurred to me
How beautiful your smile was
How truthful your words
How soothing your laughter
How inescapable your gaze
A veil was pulled back
Revealing a blinding crescendo
Of stars and awe
That moment I tried to tell myself
I wasn’t in love
Was the moment
I realized I was

Edge of My Eternity

Upon the terminator
I stood alone
At the edge of the world
Looking beyond
Life and measuring
All of its true value
Succoring my spirit

It was here in my hand
I held both lover and foe
In a moment of truth
Remembering the purity
Of our oneness
I felt almost complete
At the thought of you

Sweet Michelle…

Musings

A word amidst the flowing music, Infused, reduced, consistent chaotic. Like silence whispering intense, aloud, like waves of water, so intrinsic. A distant horizon they watch along, a million dreams, a thousand songs. A song of love, a moment of truth, The face of nature is so enigmatic.

Relationship Killer

It is the horror 
That awaits
After the thrill

The one thing that stays
Stalks
And waits for the kill

Thick fire
Ablaze in the hills
We keep walking towards it
Not facing the truth

It stays
It haunts
Our every move
Lay with me;

This may be our last moment of truth
The blaze inside thee
Threatens us
Forevermore

Overcome the Adversity

O-vercome the adversity, 
L-et your success ascend; 
I-t's the moment of truth, 
V-icious lies shall
E-nd.

P-ray to overcome the adversity, 
A-sking for faith, hope, and love; 
R-emain steadfast to surmount
A-ll trials willed by God above.
D-efeat your doubts and fears, 
E-arly eighth of February; 
Z-ealously learn to conquer
A-nd overcome the adversity.

Mystery of Death

The mystery of death, so many theories
Is eternity a possibility creating even more random queries?’

Is there a God and a heavenly place 
Beyond our perception of time and infinite space

Just some random thinking 
A thought process leaving me drowning and sinking

At any given time we will have our proof
As death comes to us all, it will be our moment of truth
