Another Moment

A moment behind’s now a mere broken truth A moment we shared in our curled, broken youth A leap from a girl striding six years behind Who favors a man spent embracing her mind This channel of love’s their conspicuous path A crime by the hand of fate’s prosperous wrath They stride on the edge, […]

A LovePoem

Love is a difficult concept to hold When a question of purity threatens to mold With varying moments of levels of doubt What’s this deceptive perfection about? It’s almost as trying to sum up a word And scratch it on paper to never be heard Or seen in the eyes of your clandestine love Or […]

Vs. Midnight

I told myself repeatedly I wouldn’t fear the sun That as it’s crawling through the shades, I’d pause before I run And stand directly ‘fore the rays of day’s appalling light And smile through the misery that’s severing my sight Through the dark, exquisite night, before the twilight falls I’d gather all my strength, and […]

Cloud Nine

Just for a moment, I’m once again found My feet momentarily touching the ground Been more than forever since shoved from cloud nine Fallen from heaven, a home I called mine If just for a moment, before you reply, I’d like to confess my heart’s still in the sky There it remains, on the stand […]

Fields of Awake

Imagination beyond oceans and seas

Wondrous worlds past the river of reality

Beyond the fields of awake

And the rainfalls of heart break

What is Peace?

What is peace, dear diary? This is my desire, see, I wonder just what could have been Previous to this position we’re in When men did not lift up swords against nations When skin was not slashed due to different foundations When eyes didn’t shriek out to wide, open space Hating a brother because of […]

Eating Music

I inhale the sweet aroma of music As my fingers fly across the black and white keys Of my best friend Of my life Of my Piano My blissful major chord fills the air Like spilled, sweet milk emitting from my fingers Defying the laws of gravity and Drifting in free air Free, free The […]

Picture I Burned

Memories spark of a picture I burned Relished of ash for the truth that I’ve learned But what is truth? Can’t tell by those eyes It’s hidden behind masks of effortless lies For, emerging this thought set aflame by pure rage Unlocks a preach taught inside life’s metal cage Words are so fragile, so easily […]
