Try

This is not a poem, but a try
To cry, to shout, so hear me out

We're told to write the pain away
But what if when I write the pain revisits
My mind, my body, my emotions
Everything I try to protect from it?

Maybe I should express about my...

My favorite love story

Never could've I ever imagined a love like this,
one so pure and true.
a love without the lies and tears,
one you want for years.
a love that erases all the past hurts and broken promises,
a love that you look forward to each and every day.
a...

My love

To my love Kortni, you are special in many a way,
I am glad your in my life to stay.
I want to be your boyfriend, lover and best friend,
I want to be with you and never end.
It was fate or destiny that we did meet,
Having you in my life is...

IN PRESENT TENSE

IN PRESENT TENSE
Learning from my genealogy that I am
first cousin to William Shakespeare, a
past and future crammed into present
tense, owing integrity to complexity
with “shadows of my sorrow”, reason
by itself so often...

Heavenly Bodies

Bodies entwine,
your hand touches mine.
Your hips sway,
as I move your way.
Slowly making love,

A road not taken

TWO ROADS DIVERGED IN A YELLOW WOOD
NOT KNOWING THE CONSEQUENCES
AND BEING SORRY FOR THE OTHER, ONE TRAVELLER
THEREFORE STOOD.
REASONS WERE MANY AND FACTS WERE KNOWN,
THE BEAUTIFUL AND LOVABLE SOULS
PRAYED FOR EACH OTHER'S HAPPINESS, WHILE
...

The Holy Ghost

The Holy Ghost is like the wind you cannot see him he dwells from within.
Heavenly things are unseen if you are a Christian, you know what I mean.

 The day you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior Jesus sends the comforter, the Holy Ghost...

Together

Tell me your long winded stories,
the ones where nothing happens,
tell me things that don't matter much
I want no declarations of love,
no gestures too grand to keep up.
I want the dull the mundane the everyday
I want you for who you are,...

Poetic

They say you write less when you're happy.
Well isn't that sad?
Let me put down this pen,
before I go mad.
No, I'm sorry.
I haven't written in years.
I've been lost.
I've been floating.
I've been swimming in fears.
It doesn't make for...

Bridging Tomorrow

Like waking and
breakfast
it’s poetry first

The day is so
ordered
quenching my thirst

Each word like a
greeting
the day on parade

Each feeling
endemic
— another one saved

(Dreamsleep: April, 2024)...

Graveside Serenade

Shadows fall against the gravestones of this forgotten cemetery.
Underground, the dead begin to stir, right behind the mortuary.
In the dead of night, beware the shadows, a doorway to their lair.
Hallows eve fast approaches, a scent of brimstone...
