I’ve held the dead of strangers

Because it was right to do

I’ve seen abused children shattered

But hey what can you do?

I’ve died twice during my operations

But my time it was not due

I’m not going without reparations

But hey what can you do?

I drank like I was dying from thirst

I thought it would get me through

Instead I lost control of my life

But hey what can you do?

I had a brain tha...

Not all that’s poisonous will kill quickly

Some toxins take more time

It’s how we treat our mind and souls

Is how we prevent the cyanide

Two slow poisons that will kill a soul

Is pure lust and jealousy

Lust will stop the powers of love

Which breeds green eyed toxicity

Jealous emotions hang on tightly

And lust will cause Obsession

If you allow the...

If only..I had the nerves

To let my love convey

Maybe I could hold her hand

And say what I want to say

If only.. she would notice me

She would see that I’m ok

If only.. I could find the words

To say what I want to say

If only…I could kiss her cheek

It would mean so much today

If only..I had trust in myself

I would say what...

There is a swamp creature

That comes out in the night

Its scaled skin is dark green

And it’s eyes are red lights

People are its favorite food

It will eat them for his dinner

The swamp creature doesn’t care

If your a saint or if your a sinner

His breath smells like old rotten eggs

His teeth can cut through steel

Many people are dead and gone

Because they thought he wasn’t real

He can see you ...

Sometimes going through life

We run into horrible times

And sometimes there are obstacles

One more mountain we have to climb

It’s easy for us to lose our direction

When we let our negativity in

But there is a simple correction

So allow myself to begin ……

Experiences, whether good or bad

Have many lessons to be learned

You need to pay close attention

Or you will keep on getting burned

“Hello dear Mother. “ I say with a whisper. “

Hello Mother I’ve brought your favorite Tulips “I say with joy in my heart

“Do you remember the time when I was 5? And I threw a baseball to Danny? ……“

“……yes that’s right!! You said I was the strongest man alive. Ha ha.”

I move closer to my Mother. Sometimes she is hard of hearing.

“Mother I saw Dad at the shop today. He said you were making...

Many times I’ve gone left

When should’ve have gone right

Sometimes I should’ve run

But instead I had a fight

There’s times I stayed home

When I should’ve gone to work

I’ve lost friends and woman

Because I was a fucking jerk

There’s many things I should’ve done

But I definitely did not

I was supposed to be getting married

But On the wedding day I forgot

Sometimes I go through life

Just making b...

My old friend mister evergreen

You stand so mighty and strong

The shadows you cast down on me

Reach out so far and long

Under your robust arms of pine

I can find shelter from the heat

Your trunk provides my back support

And your needles work great as a seat

While under your cool, calm shadow

My poet thoughts are set free

Although there May be hundreds like you

Your are my favorite pine tree

...

Every tear you ever shed

spark’s a fire in my chest

Every fear within your head

I will make my own conquest

The heartbreak in your soul

Is mine to share with you

The parts that make you whole

Are the parts that make you you

All your sad and rainy days

Will be blocked out by my love

And all your secret feelings inside

Will be ha...

There was relief in feeling the storms approach

He thought as he rode into town

These past few evenings have been so hot

That it burns when he lays on the ground

Our main character is a young gun cowboy

At a saloon just west of Santa Fe

He came to collect his rightful bounty

On the two men he killed the other day

Hard rains are pouring down on him

As William dismounts his steed

This saloon ha...
