I have been writing since I was eight years born & raised in northern new jersey. After having two near-death experiences and losing my passion for writing poetry, my daughter, girlfriend, and my grade school teacher got me back into the art of words.

He told me the jocks might get the girls now but keep writing poetry because the words will get the words the girls once the jocks are old and fat later. Now I have the love of my life due to the poem I left on her car windshield. P.S. The poem The PROPOSAL was a success. She said yes, so the teacher was right."I THINK MY WORDS KNOW YOU" Poetry.com.

SKYThe skies are dark, yet I see the moon shining through my head heavily, and I am counting how my dreams will come true. My eyes are heavy. I am trying to keep my hand steady; so many words, so much love, and just a little bit of time, I can not... | 2 Views added 7 days ago | Rating |
LIFTEDIt feels as if a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. My chest is no longer heavy; at last, I can rest. I studied your looks and books. No one could, but I passed your test. You painted me into a corner, and I fought my way out. I did not... | 2 Views added 10 days ago | Rating |
