Writing
Writing can be a challenge. It takes you many places. Sometime wonderous, often hellish spaces. In our minds there are many doors, some should always stay closed. But too often we have to take a peak, and for that misery we reap. Hair pulled out, nails chewed up. The list of woes can go on Continue reading

Thoughts at Bay
I cannot keep them out of my mind. No matter where I turn they seem to come, chains of misery with which they bind. I’m blasted back through time, no reason and no rhyme. They take me places I wish to avoid. Places where hope is null, life is void. I hear the words in Continue reading

Value
We all have value. We all have worth. Even when others make us feel like dirt. When they make us wonder why we are even here. And why anyone would want to be near. You’re important to the right people. They see your colors true. They will never make you feel used, feel down. Or Continue reading

Forgiveness
Too many times we hold a grudge. We take a stance. We shall not budge. The saddest thing of all is we give no chance. I choose to forgive, yet never to forget. The way to felt to be in betrayals net. My heart was heavy and filled with pain. Things that made tears fall Continue reading

Quick ramble
Down the winding path we go, where we stop none shall know. Do we even want to play this game? And have our chance at glory or fame? We must be careful, and rather quick. Or on us life shall play a joyous trick. Burn us up like candle qucks. Tossed around like rags or Continue reading

Passing time
Like the ripple on the water, made from a pebbles drop. The passage of time will never stop. On and on it marches by. Taking all of the years along for the ride. Like a rolling tide it washes year’s away. Into the far past they will fade. A child is born, they grow big Continue reading

Fire flies
In the nighttime it begins. The light within them shines again. Up they rise flicker now. Soon they will be flashing, oh wow. Children laugh. Children play. As the lights try to evade. They catch them in their little hands. Hold them tight is their plan. A simple sign that summers come, is when this Continue reading

Enough
Funny thing is, I know I’m not enough. But I try on, until forced to give up. Acceptance, kindness, a gentle touch. I wish for all of these things, why must it be so much? Someone to look at the flaws of my soul, without judgment at all, or to cause me woe. Longing fills Continue reading

The World
I cannot wrap my mind, around the things I seem to find. When I read the times, or even watch the news. It turns me sad and blue. Everyday a new drama. A tragedy of mass proportions. This world heads for destruction. But hey! Look at this new production! Distractions run a mock, keeping it Continue reading

Thunder
Lighting flashes in the sky, lighting up all around. Thunder crashes in it’s wake, shaking the very ground. Storm winds shriek, they whirl and howl. Turning the air so very foul. Downpours come a welcome feat. In this nasty unrivaled heat. Drought relieved by the sudden rains. The crops restore their withered frames. Thanks can Continue reading

A Simple man who dreams of being an Author one day. A lover of poems and stories of all types. A dreamer and a tale weaver in my spare time. What little I have as a father of three. Come sit by the fire, and let me spin my tales, let me speak my rhymes, and show you, a quite good time.
