Absent from my life, Absent from my lung, Absent from my belly, Oh how hard it is to miss that drunken high, Higher and higher till I landed, Flat and maladjusted, Using to avoid life, Life not lived to avoid thought, Void and bland, Now sober my airplane lands, Runway to take off again, Never…

Hue
Beautiful you, Surrounded in so many hues, Auras that abound, Covering you in a coat of many colors, Valuable and sincere, Your heart shines the spectrum, From unseen beauty, To undescribed, mostly unfathomable color, You, my love, so beautiful, So you, True to you, In truth you dazzle, Amazing, emotional hues, Which turn the world,…
Little Fubu
Her little arms and hands, Extend in my direction, Her smile widens, My eyes brighten, Little Fubu so sweet and mild, Her love I feel, Though I knew we must part, My heart eternally extended, To little Fubu, A daughter of my heart, Her orphan face, Her eyes I see in my dream, Her bite…
Light House
Nothing is like you, An anomaly of love to me, That you are, so true, To me, you are the light I needed, A lighthouse on the shores, Of true love, That called out to me in my desperate hour.
Twighlight
Down the hole I fell, Passing your house on the right, Seeing you outside, Sunbathing listening to some tunes, I stopped outside, Watching you, my lover, Thinking about those long nights, Spent ironing out the kinks, Amongst our relationship, All those sleepless nights, We spent together, Holding each other, Loving one another, Together we fight,…
For You, It’s True
I look into your eyes, see diamond eyes, Shining in the dark, lighting the skies, Your heart shines as glittering lights, Fairies fly all about, fluttering for you in the sky, For you, beautiful you, For you, wonderfully perfect you, You are my baby for life, its true, You are my baby for life, its…
Souls In Poverty
Outside the soul lays the world before it, Inside the body the soul hides from the world, Surrounding the soul is life, In life the soul either thrives or dies, Out of agony the soul cries, While in ecstasy the soul also cries, Bound to this world the soul lives, While those souls unbound surround…
Optics
Rich are the optics of the well liked, Dark are the same closets, For everyone holds a darkness within, A twisted form of ourselves, Some take pride, Some fear it, Some work to overcome it, While others seek to perfect it, Our nature, the true nature, The soul of our being, That is the true…
In Defeat I Found My Journey
It’s been a journey, Somewhere along the way, My store of motivation fell away, Now when I wake to start my day, It is harder and harder to push forward, Each step, each step I feel the chains, Fighting against the world, Pushing past the pain, Growing muscles and strength of character. In defeat I…
Purpose and the Daily Fight
Deepening sense of purpose, Fighting for what’s right, Fighting myself to accept, The dark inside of me, A sinner never lucky enough, For a chicken dinner, Searching day and night, Living life out the skylight, Delving into the soul, Mining emotions, Digging deep for the emotional gold, Searching for the end goal, The purpose to…
