To Darren - Some Stars Shine Brighter

SOME STARS SHINE BRIGHTER

Some stars shine brighter 
Some waves crash stronger
Some winds blow warmer
Some days are lovelier

Some friendships are eternal...

During our lives we meet a lot of people
But some will conquer a special place in our hearts
They'll be the ones for whom
We'll fight a little harder
We'll cry a little stronger
We'll cheer a little louder 
We'll worry a lot over

They are the ones 
That will always be there for you
Laughing with your happiness
Holding you during your tears

Some are in the same city
Others on a continent away
The distance doesn't matter
For we carry them always
In our minds and in our hearts
So they're never really far away from our thoughts

So my dear and sweet friend
Thank you for allowing me in your life
For always be there for me 
Thanks for being my rock

You've a heart of gold
The most beautiful soul
Your light shine thru your poems
Your care and attention thru your words

I'll be always here for you too
Cheering for you every step of your way...
Take care of yourself and come back to us fast...

And... never forget...
To just be yourself
Because you're simply perfect 
Just the way you are...

...and very much loved, my dear friend...

Love you, Darren

Your Better End

YOUR BETTER END

To be
To stare
To contemplate
To risk
To dare
Once and again
To trust
To leap
A Jump of faith
To fall
To land
No one can say
To forgive
To forget
Or try again
To breathe
To love
Feel whole and place
The fears
The doubts
To rest and then
To grow
To become
Your better end

Prison Walls

From my self made
Prison walls
I look outside
And see the sun

The ocean breeze
Reaches me
I see the seagulls
Flying free

These hard and cold
Stone cell walls
Close around me
Cut my thoughts

This debilitating
Fear a feel
It's like a prison
Halting my dreams

I wanna fly
High in the sky
Like those seagulls 
Without a fright

To reach beyond
This self made walls
To expand and become
More than my thoughts

I'll take a leap
Based on faith
I'll break those chains
And fly away

Hanging By a Thread - Collaboration With Darren White

HANGING BY A THREAD - COLLABORATION WITH DARREN WHITE

I felt my life hanging by a thread
The tip of your sword piercing my heart
My mind screamed words my mouth couldn't say 
The unfairness of it plain in the dark night

And through it all the sharpness of your mind
That once attracted me, like moths are drawn to flames
Dance fiercely around, burn to ashes,
Nothing remains but shallow husk, and tears

Replacing trust that once shone bright
Your deceitful words are now unveiled
Your true nature open for all to contemplate
You can't hide in the shadows anymore

No more I say, enough of your cold-bloodedness
So callous. My moth will be a butterfly;
This crying creature of the night
Will shed it's cocoon and step into the light

And as is my right, I'll conquer the skies
No more crawling for me
I was born to fly High

Beautiful Angel

BEAUTIFUL ANGEL

Beautiful angel
Of huge and white wings
Dream or delusion 
Reality or make believe

Show me yourself
Spread for me your wings
Wrap me in your arms
Surround me in safety

Take me to the skies 
Whisper in my ears
Things of heaven and earth
Share with me your dreams

Beautiful winged warrior
Your scars show your strength
They're your badges of honor
For the many battles you went

Brave angel of mercy
Come and take my hand
I can be the fighter for once
While you regain your strength 

For I also have my wings
My scars are proof of my fights
I'm not as strong as you
But I can hold my ground

Rest your head on my lap
Let me be your balm
Share with me your burden
In the morning we can fly

Not a Fairy Tale

I crossed hell's fire with my innocence shattered

A wolf in sheepskin
Was the downfall of my dreams

From a pure and sweet bliss
I was thrown in a guilt's abyss

My childhood memories
Now were tainted forever

In my innocent child mind
I waited for my knight
To take me away from the pain I held inside
But there were no sword fights
Nor duels in the dawn

The wolf in sheepskin 
Never paid for his sins

I was blamed for my hate
Because I couldn't tolerate
The ones who should defend me
Pleaded for my enemy

My books were my heaven
Their pages my sanctuary
Where I could lose myself
In their tales and happy endings

Time passes and memories fade
Never forgotten
Never forgiven

I still have my skeletons
Hidden in the closet
But I know I'm not the one to be blamed
For the sin was not mine

This wolf controlled my past
But I won't give him power over my future
Now my soul is bright
For it was purified in my fight

The Color Blue

I have a passion for the blue color
Dark blues like the deepest oceans
Or light ones as the brightest skies

Navy blues bring out the poet in me
And I meditate using a Lapis Lazuli
My protection spell is a teal circle of fire
And of course my wedding ring has a Sapphire

But that’s not all, mind you
I love my denim jeans of indigo blue
I just have to buy anything blue I see
From a peacock phone
To a cobalt TV

You can call me crazy 
Or really eccentric 
Since my car is a shiny blue electric

I still want to paint my hair
With all shades of blue
But I have to convince hubby first
To not put me in a straitjacket…
…UNLESS IT’S BLUE…

Butterflies of Beauty

BUTTERFLIES OF BEAUTY

Butterflies of beauty
Poetry in motion
Gorgeous little paintings
Flying thru the sky

Bored caterpillars
Sleeping on their cocoons
Amazing transformations
Happening inside

Little crawling creatures
Turning winged beauties
From rooted to the ground
To conquering the skies

Butterflies of beauty
Dreamland inspirations
Colors from the rainbow
With such great designs

Share with us your beauty
Queen of the perfection
Show us all your colors
Owner of the skies

Like the Phoenix

Promises broken
Expectations crashed
Unfairness overflowing
My mind and chest

I need a new dream
To keep me going 
I need light 
to fulfill my chest

I'm shattered now
But I'll grab my pieces
And like the Phoenix 
Reborn from the ashes

Cause i know i can
I've the strength in me
I just need this pain
To be in the past

Tomorrow will be
My new beginning
I'll dry my tears
I'll try my best 

Cause I'm no quiter
That's not in me
Cause I'll fight
Until I reach success.

Let Me Be Your Lighthouse

When the storm is over you
And you feel the ocean waves
Crashing and pushing you around
Let me be your lighthouse

When you feel your strength waning
And you can’t swim anymore
If the waves won’t let you float
Let me be your lighthouse

If you feel the rocks below
Cutting and hurting your tired body
And you think of letting go
Let me be your lighthouse

If the pain becomes too much
And the storm inside makes you sink
If you have no more hope
Let me be your lighthouse

Let me lend you my strength
For my light will show the way
To calm and peaceful oceans
Where you can rest and refrain

From sinking in the dark abyss
For my light will keep you afloat
It will keep the dangers at bay
Until you can reach the shore

Let me lend you my strength
Let me be your support rock
Until you can conquer the pain
Until you can defeat the storm

Then the strength you have inside
Will shine white and bright
Your light will join mine
And there will be two lighthouses
