A Difficult Choice

Some decisions are as clear
And stark as black and white
But gray will come and go at times
Oh, what if wrong is right!

Children of the Future

Oh, children of the future
Do tread a different pace
Than their parents back in times bygone
So ignorant of life's race;
Now the boy becomes a man
And a woman takes her place

Serendipity

And she could have looked left 
And he could have looked right
But G-d smiled down and He let there be light
All the right things were spoken in silence between
She understood secrets that weighed his soul down
The first of a moment, allowed them a dream
In the abyss of lost hope, predestined to drown

The Yolk

Though doubtful mind and scheme untold
The truth I will forever hold.

My Nightmare

if I am in its path
to resist- I won't succeed
a civil war inside myself
on my struggle it feeds
an evil fruit
a beautiful Hell
eyes closed in concentration
for rather than remove myself-
I must remove temptation

Small Talk

I nod my head and smile again
The burning creases brand my skin
A scar I will forever wear
There's nothing left to talk about
Pretend to hear; pretend to care
I fear my words have all run out.

My Star Still Remains

I remember you, my star
I stood by the window
Staring into the inky sky
Such a dreary horizon
But there was you
Twinkling back at me
A sign of hope.

I remember how I felt
When my whole world fell apart
Crumbling like my heart
I thought that you were gone
For my eyes no longer sheltered you
And even if you stayed
I was ashamed for you
To see me cry.

And I remember when I found love
An infinite clarity
To my clouded vision
Though life has taken
It has also given
I learned of beauty
I learned of pain
I thought that nothing gold can stay
But deep there in the weathered sky
My lone star still remains.

So Close

There was a time when I thought I might feel you
Maybe touch you, maybe see you, maybe hear you
I thought, if I tried, I could wake you
Maybe know you, maybe hold you, maybe break you
But when my hands clasped thin air, I said to you
Can you find me though I cannot find you?
Maybe I can show you I believe in you
But I wish that I could see you as you are
You are so very close
And yet–
So far

My World

If the globe on which I live
Were naught but brilliant sun
The small acts done in silent ways
Would seem like they were none

But if the wide, majestic world
Were dark as moonless night
A tiny deed would shine as though
It were the greatest light.

The Void

The Void has returned
Pulling and seething
The Abyss of Lost Hope
Has stopped me from breathing

There's no place to hide
And no place worth finding
The Void has returned-
Its darkness is blinding.
