Hosts of pages litter the floor
Crumpled little dreams tossed by the wayside
Imagination sees while translations lack the fortitude
Where is the elusive muse
Who can coax nimble fingers
Into releasing these bound tales?
BOUND… a poem
INFINITE LOOPS… a poem of thought
Twisting through the infinite loops
Inside my brain
I find there are no boundaries
If there are indeed no boundaries
Then perhaps that explains a lot
It explains why, sometimes, I cannot find what I’m searching for
Why my creativity is lackluster
Why I cannot write
Or paint
Or whatever
On the plus side of this quandary
Infinite loops will, by definition,
Come back around
At least, I hope so
STATE OF INEPTITUDE… a poem
The haze obscuring my reticence
Condemns my heart to speak
Longing for a time unknown
Tumbling from its peak
Surrounded by the inhumane stupor
As far apart as we can be
Guilt laces my veins within
Incomprehensibly choking me
RAINBOW… a happy song
Here is another song Caity Webb, my collaborator, put chords and vocals to. I only wrote the words… ;-)))
Enjoy!
WINGS… a poem of faith
There will always be tears
Of joy and of pain
You will always be here
In our souls you’ll remain
Your smile is a memory
Time can’t take away
We now walk alone
Since Jesus called your name
Our hearts are so full
Of the love that you gave
You are now everlasting
In the promise He made
In this we take comfort
Knowing we’ll see you again
The day we get our wings
And forever begins
BLISS… a short poem
So too say I
Lost deep within your kiss
My love for you is endless
Not an unrequited bliss
MY HAUNTING… a dark poem
In the struggle of my life
I forgot to say I love you
In the struggle of my life
I forgot to goodbye
Everyone around me
Every voice inside my head
Every single time I speak
There is nothing but a cry…
——–
Lost in separation
By this madness that engulfs me
Lost in separation
When I catch a stranger’s eye
Caught between the here and there
Forgetting how to breathe
In this, a living nightmare
Am I forsaken by and by
———
Indiscreetly, I loosed my grip
Soured by inadequacy
Indiscreetly, I loosed my hold
As the shadows over through me
For consolation, there is nigh
Broken soul like dried up bones
A final kiss I was denied
This shallow grave my home
DO NOT GIVE UP… a thought
In the forefront of my mind
Where dreams are but fading shadows
Too quickly forgotten
Along with the feelings they momentarily held
I find myself scouring the depths of my memories
Hoping, praying to find the solace therein
That small slice of time that I know
Deep in my heart
I can never recapture
But, I do not give up hope
I’LL BE OKAY… a poem
One step, two step
Falling back three
This ever changing landscape
Is getting the best of me
Just when it seems
I’ve broken through
Into a better place
The cruelty of reality
Slaps me in the face
But, that’s alright
I’ll trudge along
Tomorrow’s another day
And if this is the worse thing
That happens to me
I think I’ll be okay
FLOWERS… a poem
The flowers are so pretty
But the scenery is blue
Tell me, how did I get here
Was there nothing I could do
I did my best to love
And tried to do all that I could
For those who needed more than me
I hope they understood
Now, looking down upon the petals
Red, white and azure blue
I only wish I had more time
Before my life was through
