Flower Girl
When the bitter winds have passed
The winter warms
And the spring days dawn
Remember to bloom.
Depth is found in the most unlikely of places.
When the bitter winds have passed
The winter warms
And the spring days dawn
Remember to bloom.
Dream
I seem
To see in cream
A stream
Of steam
The beauty stands as I reach
Looking down to me to teach
Clinging to her like a leach
Then nothing but a long beach
Trees
And then I feel free.
Light through the leaves
Dancing in the shadows
Show me the way back
My waking eyes have lost the gleam
I no longer dream.
would you,
please,
if you would,
bring me to my special place?
the one where we,
sit,
laugh
and make happy memories?
what would it take?
for you to be the one?
is there a set of words?
a key to your heart?
i dont want to be
“just friends”
We feel it in ourselves,
We know it is the best gift to receive,
We know we need it,
But we may not horde it,
For if we do, it loses all meaning,
Love Is Not Love Until We Give It Away
I, humbled by life
Stopped.
In the middle of the path
In the middle of my life
And in the dark wood I took a knee
As I came to myself
I spoke no words
On both accounts
For I knew What I had done
I rose and silently accepted myself
Moving ever forward to a better self.
-Inspired By Dante
Taste the words you speak as they fall from your tongue.
Smell their lingering sent
See their aura
And feel their power.
What is the imprint that you leave behind?
do you feel Good about it?
I hope so
-THE HUMBLE
Desire is a strange and odd beauty,
Swirling like a lost leaf in the road,
It may be lost or it may be right where it belongs,
To you, that is left to be decided upon,
Where will it land and where will it be lost,
Will it be crushed under foot, left to crumble into particles, scattered across our world, no place to belong and no longer wanted,
Or maybe it will get stranded in a pile with all others like it, forgotten and left to rot, buried under lost over and forgotten dessert,
Used
once i was strong
confident
making my way through the world
i could run with the best of them
at one time
i loved you
at one time
you strengthened me
at one time
i held you in arms
never to let go
once upon a time
i was head over heals
falling for you
making my mark on the world
at one time
i loved you
at one time
you strengthened me
at one time
i held you in arms
never to let go
we would walk along
with no shoes on
making our way down the road
we would laugh at every joke
and make time pass like sand through fingers
at one time
i loved you
at one time
you strengthened me
at one time
i held you in arms
never to let go
but now in the darkness
i see the light
and how you kept me away from it for so long
you will never deceive me again
you will never make a fool of me again
at one time
i loved you
at one time
you strengthened me
at one time
i held you in arms
never to let go
so stand there if you must
make that face i know too well
i know its never been me
and you were a poison
and i your victim
As I sit
Gaze upon the rippling mirror
Water is it?
Not anymore
I feel as if I am one with the world
Cradled by coffee and cannabis
The lines have become swirled
What I’ve found, what is this?
Time to stop throwing fits
I’m going to smile more
The truth is unfurled
We can find bliss.
As a gentle breeze brushes the powdery snow from the bows of the bent trees,
I watch in wonderment, as snow gently glides to the ground
I find peace.
