POEM ONE

There are times when you feel out of touch
And times when you can't do much
And sometimes this is what you truly believe
And times when you're amazed at what you conceive

Mesmerized by the moment, lost in the thought
Remember you're not the judge to say what you can and can not
Don't limit yourself, embrace God's gift
Use it, fulfil it, and never forget about it

For God blesses us all with individuality
So express it, by God's hands we're all moulded specially
We're all different; no one shall ever be the same
All gifted a part of life's never ending game

Whether it's painting such works as the Mona Lisa
Or biting out designs on slices of pizza
Or like me, writing poems, yea that's my thing
And there are others blessed with wonderous voices who could sing

There are others who excel in other art
Are gifted musically hearing the mystical rhythm linked to Mozart
And there are those who are just multi-talented
Never hesitating to use their gifts whilst others marvel at what they created

And there are some out there who maybe saying that they have no gifts
and then they threat
But they need to understand that they just haven't recognized their gifts yet
That creativity is not only found in the big things out there
It's found in the slightest stylish placement of a strand of hair

To the placement of our steps as we walk
And the pausing accentuating moments heard when we walk
And the murals seen plastered on the walls
To the funny excuses made at awkward public falls

For we all posses creativity,
Its not one of those choices in life people make
It is all part of living
Creating new ideas in every step we take

EMOTIONS

 When darkness encloses and the lights are dim
And all hope vanishes and it just might seem
That all reason to live is finally gone
And the fire inside has died and is done
You sit silently not knowing what to do
Hearing a voice from somewhere saying
your life should be through
Then you bend your head and unknowingly start to cry
Deeply perplexed, not knowing why
Your emotions rise,
twirl and fall hurting you inside
And you run away from reality trying to hide
From your actions, clearly not carefully thought through
To your words now realizing what they can do
You stare at the knife then glance at your wrist
An illusion forms but then blinded by mist
A mist of tears, thoughts of loss of life
Turning sharply, suddenly gazing at the knife
Take a step closer, take a hold of it
Grasp it tightly as knife and skin meet
Your decision already made
for you see it as the only way
    Lacking that little voice inside
to tell you tomorrow is another day

YOU 

YOUR BEAUTY IS LIKE THE SUNSET,
SO SIMPLE AND TRUE
AS WONDERFLUL AS A MORNING FLOWER
STILL WET WITH DEW
YOUR SMILE IS LIKE A BUTTERFLY
STILL IN IT'S CACOON
WAITING FOR THAT PERFECT MOMMENT
TO SHINE LIKE THE MOON
YOUR EYES REFLECT MAJESTY
LIKE THE DEEP BLUE OCEANS AND SEAS
YOUR WORDS AS SPONTANIOUS
AS THE WILD BUZZING BEES
YOUR PRESENCE CAUSES AN EMOTION
ONE SET APART
ONE WHICH CLEAR SHOWS A PATH
LEADING STRAIT TO MY HEART

WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR

 I’m looking for fire works while wishing on a star
Hoping you’ll hurry up who ever you are
I’m not saying the world should stop spinning or end
I’m just praying for a lover, companion and friend
I’m not searching for perfection, no plastic coated doll

I’ll take you with your rough edges and all
But one must have good mannerisms too
All aware I’ll never bend over backwards for you
But be assured the love will be there and exist till it can no more

And trust me when you’re with me you’ll never bore
For I live, love and am learning how to persevere
And embrace love without a fear

MY ode TO YOUR LOVE

 The reason I love you is so clear to me
We’re bounded by love eternally
I can feel and sense our one rhythm of soul
The heat of our passion to never grow old
I count down to the moments ‘till we’re together
And hope those moments last forever
How I enjoy just sitting and wasting my time with you
Laughing at the stupid things you do
For you are the one who makes me laugh without trying
And because of you I never waste my time crying
For you showed me the difference between life and death
You showed me the reason loving not just for wealth
You showed me what loving is really about
And I know I’m in love, there is no doubt
We share a love; I’m yours you’re mine
A love so serene a love so divine

TIME FOR CRYING

 Its ok my darling just to cry
Sometimes it’s not enough just to sigh
Or mumble quietly under your breath
Staring at what is left
The remnant of a once vibrant relationship
One that was once so caring and deep
One now filled with such hatred and agony
Wondering how this all can be
How you slowly turned to this
Broken down internally piece by piece
By the pressures that you daily face
Pressures from this stressful place
Keep it all in you must have said to your self
Blissfully unaware of what it has done to your health
That’s why my dear you need to know
That you should have done this long ago
That sometimes you just need to cry
And let the world pass you by
back to top

WHY OH WHY

 I knew I shouldn’t have done that
Now I’m sitting here pondering why
Friendless guilty and alone
But too much pride to cry
A feeling indescribable
When you know you’ve done someone wrong
No one here to console you
Knowing you deserve it all along
My conscience was some how silent
But now seemingly quite loud
Not knowing what to do or say
End up staring thoughtlessly at a cloud
The moments seem ever lasting
As silence around me prevail
As my courage begins dwindle and slowly start to fail
A tear simply falls from my eye
The signal that all is lost
Wondering why I did it
Knowing it was not worth the cost
